The person who owns that blog (King) is the Character Designer for Suikoden V.

He is the "Art Director". Looks like it is a separate position from the Character Designer, whose identity is yet to be revealed by Konami.

I'm unwell now, so I probably won't translate the latest King entry. Basically, he talks about drinking wine. And also introduces some other Suikoden V staff.

Drinking wine? Could it be a mini game?! I'm really curious.

...I think King is telling us that he likes to partake of wine. I know I fancy a glass of Kirsch or Grande Marnier with my desserts.

Ohh.... too bad that info tells more about himself and not about the game.

In fact King was talking about his friend wedding.

Those familiar with mixing of different colors, do you see any connection between red, green, and yellow?

Blonde hair, blue eyes, I'm surprised there aren't crazy theories about her being Harmonian going around.

Something about Sius' face disturbs me. On top of that, he doesn't seem like much of a fighter. It puzzles me as to why he's walking around with a sword.

Japanese often leaves out the subject. So in King Blog translation, whereever I have "I," keep in mind that the "I" was left out in Japanese; meaning King might have meant "we."

I am sorry if my questions sounds silly but I do not know that much about George Prime.

It sounds like that George is one of the Queen's knights. Is that true?
How could it be that he is the best friend of Felid?

According to King, George has just arrived in Falena before the plot of Suikoden V starts. Is it possible that George has been to Falena before that?

It's mentioned during Suikoden II via Richmond's Investigation that Georg killed the Queen of Falena.

Don't you think that this information could spoil the plot of Suikoden V to a great extend? I hope it won't.

Considering that we've known it for all of these years, I doubt it since that was the first thing that was speculated upon when it was announced that Suikoden V would take place in Falena. The only person it would be a spoiler to would be those playing Suikoden for the first time.

He's supposed to be a friend of Felid, and have just recently joined the Queen's Knights at the beginning of the game. No idea when they became acquainted, but Felid himself isn't a Falenan locale, so it wouldn't be strange to speculate that they have met each other elsewhere.

It's great that you've gotten better, dmx.
