That's right people..... I admit I originally had planned to reveal this at the very end of my upcoming super special AMAZING SaGa retrospective video of mine................. BUT....... sadly fate plays a joke on me and the video shall be heavily delayed.... it might not even come out this year.... I know it sucks, but what can you do?! This is why I decided it was right to spill the beans here:
Ever since I beat Unlimited Saga with all characters I felt...... happy, but.... I couldn't get over the fact how something seemed missing. Many of the game's fans kept talking how there apparently exist novel(s) to the game which reveal many more details unspoken throughout the game.
Who's the REAL main character?
How do the stories tie in together?
And other things.
I heard so many alternative titles that I just figured in the end that no such book can even exist..... but then, this year a miracle occurred! I met someone a person from Japan that actually speaks English!
I KNOW, RIGHT?!?!?!? That's more impressive than a three headed cow! (Sadly... I'm not even being sarcastic, believe me!)

She's just.... amazing! I swear people, check out her gallery! She drew some amazing things, including a collection of Saga Frontier 2 Fanart that I'm sure to feature in my video!. She deserves so much! She not only confirmed that the books do in fact exist, she also helped me get them! I had to pay of course, but ... was it ever worth it!!!
So there we have it: The 2 novels, as well as the Japanese gameguide featuring some artwork. The game guide requires less attention here of course, but the novels..... I WANT IT TRANSLATED!!!!
What's that? You're wondering if it's illegal? Let's sum up the facts:
-It would be illegal if I made money with it... which I won't be doing, this a fan project and hey, I even have the ORIGINAL book, bought legally!
-It could be considered unethical if the creators of the game/book were to give the rights for translation to someone else, which is also not the case here! The Book is out of print, so is the game and the novels themselves were only released in Japan in Japanese, hence if we leave them like this, nothing will happen.
I of course always dreamed of learning Japanese someday, but currently I am in college and way, so I figured I could ask people who speak Japanese and fans of the original game to possibly help me with this project. That's why I announce phase 1 of this project:
I raise my hand looking for people willing to help me with this!!!!
But perhaps now you're shocked and terrified by how huuuge these books are.... this is why I want a team! We could split it up! Each person translates one chapter or each person does just one page a month or something.... WE CAN MAKE IT PEOPLE!!! SO WHO'S WITH ME?!?!?!??!
