The original is rather stiff and the gba remake is too retarded for its own good.

Exactly, EXACTLY the same as the original, almost to the point of self-parody.
Chocobot and bullshit freeze puzzles included. Even goes as far as pic related.

Like, it's better than Sword of Mana, but it's just a straight-up port with enhanced sound/graphics (though i'll admit it sounds damn fine), so it's not really worth playing unless you had a MASSIVE nostalgiaboner for the original.

Why do the sprites look nothing like the official designs? Faris' sprite is some vaguely androgynous purple haired pirate instead of the superior, dapper blonde design.

How would you even make that look good as a tiny 16x16 (or whatever) sprite? They had to use flamboyant colors to make it stand out, otherwise she's just got a black coat. I agree with you though, the sprite sucked compared to the art.

Agreed. Plus they made the game easy as all hell and slow as fuck. I don't like some of the musical arrangements either.
The original's aesthetics worked in some sense given the whole black, grey, and white (or rather yellow-green) factor of the Phatboy, and could create a sort of balance with the use and absence of monochrome "color". However, trying to 1-1 the sprite placement and being so absolutely disgustingly myfirst3dunitygame as fuck with the visual components in doing so was disgraceful, especially considering the price point.
I don't completely like the way Sword of Mana was handled completely (I don't like brownie brown's character design at all, the magic upgrade system was retarded and I didn't care for the way weapon puzzles were reduced to "hit this stupid ass blob"), but at least they tried to put sincere effort into it that compared to the soulless drek that Adventures of Mana is.

You're only half right. Amano's art wasn't use for the U.S. versions of Final Fantasy I and II, but it was used for III and appeared as publicity art in various magazines.

Terada's art was just glorified fanart, since it was only made for Nintendo Power
