I'm glad you enjoyed the game. I'm not sure if Exdeath will be changed from X-Death to Exdeath in the English version because the Japanese version you played still hadn't been translated yet. It's good if the music is even better than in the original version. By the way, what's so dangerous about Grand Cross? I've fought and defeated Neo-Exdeath several times, and I think it has only once messed up my party, and even then I still won the battle. It's not like it casts Death on 3 characters and a 10-second Doom countdown on the 4th member like it sometimes does in FFIX.
