Terranigma's art designer Kamui Fujiwara got quite active on Twitter earlier this year and got to even upload a compressed file with unseen concept art (covered in this thread back then).
Then, a few weeks ago he started uploading new illustrations depicting key scenes in the game in order to commemorate the game's 25th anniversary. Here's a sample, you can check the rest in his twitter feed.
But the piece of news that encouraged me to open this thread is that Japanese fans, backed by with Kamui Fujiwara himself and former composer Miyoko Takaoka, opened a Change.org petition to convince Square-Enix to rerelease in some form.
Link to the petition (in Japanese, may not work properly on some browsers).
And the plea in the petition (translated into English using DeepL):
I was not aware of the following the game had in Japan, so I didn't imagine it had whole fests and conventions around it. Overall this is shaping to be the most promising thing that has happened to the game in a long time, and while I'm not optimistic Square-Enix will do anything, at least it will raise awareness about the game and invite more people to play it. Whether you have experienced Terranigma before or want to aid in its preservation efforts, please sign the petition! The dream would be a collection with the other pair of the "Soul Blazer Trilogy", Soul Blazer and Illusion of Time.
