If they release it west they will provably switch Sonic and Alien Syndrome girl place in the picture, “because only Sonic sells!!”
It would be great if they actually release a double pack with the missing 1st volume and this third one.
That ‘s a good point about Sonic. To be fair, I don’t like this boxart all that much given the random placement of the characters, so I wouldn’t necessarily mind seeing a different take on it. I had sort of expected seeing the 1st volume released in the West, but it hasn’t happened yet. I’m not sure what that means for the 3rd one.
