Turned on the ol Tweaker. It downloaded 9.35MB's of something and says it's ready to go. Wut? I know the servers are still down, not talking about that, but did I just download the new files or something?

Thanks for the notification, Variant! I will add a note about that in the OP.

Arc fixed it while I was asleep, we should be good to go on item translation.

You're not 'quite' ready to play the game, yet.

When server maintenance is finished, the full update will become available. SEGA pushes these update files bit-by-bit as they go through them, so you would essentially be able to download most of them by ~1-2 AM EDT. When maintenance is finished, you would have most of the files ready to go, so you would probably only have about 4-5 MBs left in files to download.

In total, you downloaded 9.35 MBs worth of files out of the 28 MB update. That means that if you were to wait for the update to finish before downloading again, you would probably have approximately 18.65 MBs worth of data to download (you have AIDA to thank for that new addition to the top of Tweaker upon starting a file download ).

Everything should be good to go within the next few hours, so stay tuned~

Nice work, you guys! I've updated my post to reflect the changes.

I am glad good-hearted people like yourselves are taking your time to give us this luxury. This game is wonderful and making these english patches makes it even more wonderful. Thanks guys for your dedication.

I have this hunch that they probably nerfed the rare drop rates on Vardha Soma and Blu Ringahda this patch to compensate for the guaranteed interrupt rankings they'll be getting this week...
