Samurai Deeper Kyo
2002
Marvelous is based in Tokyo, Japan, with game brands including Story of Seasons and Rune Factory. Its North American subsidiary, Marvelous USA, publishes PC and console titles from internal development studios in the Americas. The Japanese parent, American publisher, and XSEED publishing brand have distinct roles. In GameNavo's current public company directory, Marvelous is linked to 84 distinct published standard games and ranks 26 in this frozen top-100 snapshot. Representative reviewed links include Rune Factory 4 (publishing); Bokujou Monogatari - 3-tsu no Sato no Taisetsu na Tomodachi (development and publishing); Soul Sacrifice (development); Ys Seven (publishing). These examples describe the visible scope of the site's records; they are not presented as the company's complete commercial catalogue. A company credit can mean development, publishing, localization, porting, or regional distribution depending on the title and edition. The directory therefore keeps each credited role attached to its specific game and release. It does not infer credits from parent-company ownership, a later acquisition, a shared brand, or a similar name, and it does not merge separate organizations solely because their names resemble one another. The public English name is shortened to “Marvelous”, while “Marvelous Inc.” remains available for search and historical identification. The Chinese display name used on this page is “Marvelous”. The linked count is a catalog measure and should not be read as a claim about the company's complete lifetime output.
