Trivia
When Sega was preparing to license the game internationally, they had planned to pallet swap the characters and re-format the game into a project known as "Sister Sonic" which would tie into Sega's Sonic the Hedgehog franchise. Sega abandoned the idea after receiving increasingly negative feedback from fans.

Goofy, fun game

Say what you will about the Sega CD, but they had the most original RPGs. And Popful Mail was no exception. Great story, great voice acting, nice animation, and clever, often hilarious jokes.

My favorite punchline (which I still throw into conversations sometimes) was when you are trapped in an ice prison by these talking penguins. The enemies attack it and penguins go scattering everywhere. If you take over the character Gaw and talk to one of the jailers he (Gaw) says: "What's going on? People are clearing out of here faster than Euro-Disney."

Still one of my faves.
