Disgaea 2: Meet Our New Hero Adel…

“The main character in Disgaea 2 is Adel, a red-haired, hot-tempered 17-year-old. All the people in Adel’s world were turned to devils 15 years ago, when the dark lord Xenon appeared and cursed the populace. For unexplained reasons, Adel is the only person unaffected by the curse, and he sets out to fight Xenon and turn his family back into humans. Despite the demonic setting, though, Disgaea 2 stays true to the series’ comedic tradition, often employing dark humor.”

So far I’ve heard everything from, “OMG there IS a God!!” to, “why bother calling it Disgaea 2 if it’s not starring Laharl & co? That’s just going to piss people off.”

Anyway, more from Gamespot:

“Disgaea 2 takes place three years after the original, and it plays with new main characters. Producer Souhei Shinwaka told Dengeki PlayStation that he originally planned to make the characters from the first game Disgaea 2′s heroes. Instead, he created a new world and cast for Disgaea 2, and gave the characters from the original Disgaea, including heroine Ethna and the Prinny penguins, supporting roles.”

Either way, I’m excited beyond words!! *runs out the house nekkid*
