  1. To Brent: If you like the Puyo Puyo Tsu soundtrack, you might like Madou Monogatari I. They're both composed but the same guy, Tsuyoshi Matsushima.

    Also check out his SNES work here: http://bit.ly/fNvQgv

  2. Also, related the next episode, but where did you guys find the FIFA International Soccer (Jeff van Dyck) soundtrack? I can't find it on Project2612 or Zophar.

  6. Just noticed that in track listings of this episode, episode 19, and episode 1, Naoki Kodaka's last name is misspelled "Kadoka."
