I'm not particularly convinced that the 有阪千尋 here who did the sound for Project-μ games is the same person as the Chihiro Arisaka who did a bunch of handheld sound porting for Capcom, because they were both active during the same period of time for different companies.

有阪千尋 (Project-μ): 2000–2003
Chihiro Arisaka (Capcom?/Klein): 2001–2006

I also found a 有阪千尋 sighting as a sound creator with Motoharu Yoshihira in the 2008 DS game Jigsaw World: Daigekitou! Jig Battle Heroes.

The only real clue that probably exists is the sharing of webspace between Klein Computer Entertainment and Project-μ

Last Archive.org link:
http://web.archive.org/web/200412090...mew/index.html

Klein Group Entertainment current website:
http://game.klein-group.co.jp/frame.html
Unfortunately their earlier website isn't accessible at archive.org at all, but the current website shows it is the same company who worked on several Capcom games. Wikipedia states that Project-μ was Klein Computer Entertainment's adult game brand.

I haven't seen any staff roll from a Klein game, but can see why it's likely that she's the same person. Credit for "Sound" or "Sound Design" doesn't mean she's composed or arranged any BGM like she did at Project-μ, so it feels like the connection between these two works isn't very significant for this DB.

Further useless link if needed: Klein is German for small, μ regularly stands for micro.

Oh thanks, if Project-μ was a brand of Klein then they should be the same person yeah. All of the Capcom titles that Arisaka worked on are in the Klein works list, so it looks like they were in fact never a Capcom employee (at least during that timeframe).

On that ocassion, it seems Project-μ had several sister brands, and she's also credited for these games:

Goth (Meta-Doll)
Mabuta Tojireba Soko ni... (Laksmi)
Houmon Hanbai ~Otona no Omocha Irimasen ka?~ (moco-pro) (Composer/Vocalist credited as "chihirouz", that's probably her)
