The story gets incredibly distorted, or any semblance of coherently putting it together in casual playthrough.
Shit starts to break down after you meet Kikkinok.

You what? The story is really simple, every task you receive on the main quest is spelled out to you and then you get a detailed explanation of why you're doing it.
My problem with the story is that there is two of it, and the one in the second half of the game is much less interesting than the one in the first half. A youngster trying to save his village from a disaster was an interesting concept, and felt grounded despite the said disaster being supernatural. The chosen one bullshit that comes in the second half, opened by a lengthy expository monologue feels like fanfiction in comparison.
That being said I still think it is worth playing all the way through.

one of my favorite games

Love the demo, always wanted to play the full game but never got around to it.

Meh, I never enjoyed it, it's just a monster capture and training game.
>>
I played the demo and thought the monster fusion thing was cool but I also wasn't really into JRPGs back then so I didn't play the full game

I bought it on a whim a few years back and put it down pretty quickly. I got to a forest early on and didn't know where to go and the high encounter rate got on my nerves. I plan on giving it a better shot. That first one was mostly just checking to see if the disc even worked.

I was so disappointed by Jade Cocoon 2. I had hope they'd fix some things I didn't like about the first, but they just made everything worse.
