So from these credits, we can assume several things:
- The Shadow Hearts team doesn't exist anymore, Ohgawa stole them and moved them to FeelPlus to make LO
- Kaminagayoshi stole quite a few guys from his LoD days to work on LO too
- Sakaguchi gave a lot of his old Square USA/Square Honolulu friends jobs again after he made them all lose theirs
- The English version should rock, and I know for sure I'm going to be playing with English voices now.
