I got a wall request a while ago for this series (EX) and I really liked it...so I'd like to know a little more about the series and how this one coming out fits in with the series storyline.
You probably already got your answer, but what the heck...
Here was my mini review of the series:

I have to stress that this series is based on the manga. The manga is based on the games. So there is a loss of information between the game and the anime.
Basically the whole story is the game "Star Ocean 2nd Story", but hits on the main points and without the private action scenes. They add a few new things, but they are only contained in the episode they come from.
"Star Ocean: Til The End of Time" is a totally different story so it has nothing to do with the "Star Ocean EX" anime. So far, this other game has only a manga out on it.
I didn't like both games for various reasons but I surely liked Ashton. He was unique. That was probably the only reason why I got the "Star Ocean 2nd Story" manga and anime. B)
These new DVDs in English cost way too much. 4 episodes for $30... What would be... Almost and over $130 for the whole series. The series isn't worth that much.
And I really wanted to hear how the dubbed voices would turn out... B/
