Anyone else have it? I got it for Christmas, and it's pretty good. It's somewhat accurate to the story, but apparently the ending is much different due to time constraints. (The show got canceled)

No other Star Ocean fans have this? That's surprising.

Check it out, I think most of you would enjoy it.

Yes, I own EX. I'm probably about to buy my copies of the drama CDs as well, since I want them badly.

Getting ready for a re-watch of this, it's been awhile. I like others think the ending, but with it being canceled prematurely it is a bit understandable.

Since I can't play the game (dont own a psp- and I don't think I am going to buy a psp just to play Second Story anytime soon), is this worth checking out? Or will watching this ruin it if sometime in the future I am able to play SS?

I saw EX before I played SO2. Made me interested in playing it. The anime only covers half the story, and events play out a little bit differently than they do in the game. If you mean ruining it through spoilers, then yes - the game will be spoiled to a certain degree.

I thought it was a fun show. The animation sucked, but it was at least entertaining.

I watched a few of the episodes before playing the game (Up to episode 5 I believe...), and it was pretty solid from what I remember. Might I also say that the dub isn't even bad, I rather enjoyed it. :3

The dub is great. I actually can't decide which version I like more xD

So I decided to start this as my next anime (I generally watch 2 while doing some cardio- getting old sucks). I am pretty sure I am not gonna buy a vita or psp just for these games and the ps games are so expensive- if you can find them.

If anyone else is interested, http://www.veoh.com/watch/v1421426Yn64bQzt/staroceanexenglishdubbed

I was enjoying the plot & potentiality of the plot of 2nd story, and popped on ebay and got myself an old ps1 version. So I decided to stop watching till I get & play the game.

Now that I have finished the game, I started rewatching the series. I like that it is different than the game in all the little aspects but the overall plot is the same.

The only episode that confused me was the Ghost Pirate ship one. Where did that come from?

Fillerrrrrr, and as filler usually is...it sucked. Such a boring and pointless episode. I would love a remake of SO2 for PS3 or something, but since the optional character system would be too difficult on current systems, it would be cool if they used EX's method of making all character simultaneously relevant.

There are some things I really am enjoying about this series. (just finished episode) 15

1. Dias isn't nearly as big of a dick.
2. Way less Claude teen-angst
3. Celine is much more engaging and interesting, I had her in my party but she felt like a filler piece.

Finished it and other than that random pirate episode I actually liked the storyline a bit more than the game's story line- the ten wisemen didn't come out of nowhere only Gab was introduced as the mastermind behind the calamity.

Although less Ashton would've been good.

I'd love to give the show a view, but I probably won't be able to find it for a reasonable price anywhere and I don't really pirate things so alas I'll probably never get to see it :C

Here is a link to the full season of Star Ocean EX

I'm currently in the process of making a series of parodies based on the show in the vein of the TwoBestFriends early "Stupidity" series. Show is so campy, but I love Star Ocean. Here's part 1 and 2. Hope you enjoy.
