Surprisingly, this comm has been silent about this announcement, and I've been eagerly waiting for months, so for today I'm bring this up for discussion.
Early reviews, especially those fortunate to watch it onscreen while visiting Japan, revealed that it's somewhat faithful to the original, so I'm hoping that should hold true to me, perhaps even exceeding my expectations.
My body is ready.
