I want to do a Sutepri RPG so badly that I'm getting my C++ groove back on now. I've got ideas coming out my ass here:

- first-person exploration engine and Disgaea-style isometric battle engine, modified from the Betrayal at Krondor engine
- new story set a few years after the series, starring new main and supporting characters (I've design sketches for two already) and guest starring a bunch of series veterans
- music from Betrayal at Krondor, Gunslinger Girl, Blood, Castlevania SOTN, and more
- graphic novel style cutscenes a la Phantasy Star and Max Payne

But for a retelling of the anime, I would prefer the Planescape Torment engine. Info on modding that game can be found at www.teambg.net.

EDIT: I haven't seen much of DNAngel, but for an idea of what that game could be like, you should play the two very awesome Thief games, Dark Project and Metal Age. They come in a two-pack for about $15-20. I don't know why I didn't think of it sooner.
