Most of what we've seen of Jaleco's Ougon no Kizuna has involved big, big bosses. But while fighting huge hulks is an important part of the game, it's also characterized by much smaller tasks involving (generally) smaller characters, who then form "bonds" with Lian, the protagonist. The formation of these bonds affects the game's storyline.
Famitsu has introduced two of Kizuna's 100 subquests. The first involves helping a girl named Aliche pass her test to become a water priestess, and the second seems to involve training a group of soldiers called "Resolvers" who are currently being trained in a less-than-serious manner.

I wonder if Marvelous/XSeed can localize this game as well.

I really hope they do.
Jalico isn't a very relevant company any longer, I don't know that they're able to do this game any justice in NA.
That being said, Xseed is looking to drop huge 'core' titles on the Wii in the coming year and this would be a VERY welcome addition to their lineup.
After getting the shaft from NOA over so many great import titles, it's an astounding relief to see a company (or companies, including MMV) attempting to provide NA with some seriously creative and impressive Japanese Wii games.

This game is Marvelous TOO?
Holy crap. MMV ftw.
That's a lot of good support from them. No More Heroes 2, Arc Rise Fantasia, Muramasa, and now this? Damn. Big third party support.

It isn't Marvelous. It is from Jaleco. I'm hoping it gets localized by Marvelous/XSeed, since Jaleco isn't that big a company.

Out of all the wii games i've seen/heard/read about this one has so far peaked my interest the most. It was described as a "Colossus" like game and that was one of my favorite games of all time. I really hope this isn't just another awesome looking game that i'll never get to play. There are way too many of those.
