I don't feel like it often, but I really feel like this HAS to be labor of love.
It's incredibly niche, by both a new developer and a new publisher (Red Dunes and Blast Zero) - but they went ALL out on new hand drawn animation and getting both the original English and Japanese voice casts?
This could have been a simple cash in, but it feels the exact opposite.
I adore SPC, I saw every episode at least twice when it ran locally when I was a kid. I can sing most, if not all of the theme song and I am STOKED. Literally made my day. I'm buying it day one, and I'm hoping for some kind of special edition.
Edit:
An interview with the CEO of Blast Zero (formerly the Jitsu Squad devs, apparently ) basically confirms it as a passion project. They learned cel animation to make it and got back the original artists and writer.
