Absolutely true.  Anyhow, having acquired this new P1, i notice several intersting points..   the initial point of the arrow above the life bar is now about at the 50% mark, as opposed to the 15% mark with the old p1.  which one is the actual MVS set to?  also, after performing a zetsugi ougi, if you whiff, your life goes way down - also different from the old p1.  which is correct?  I'm sure the techy people will fix it sooner or later.
