This is getting old. Both Natsume and Marvelous are not the original creators of Harvest Moon. Victor Interactive Software is. They went through buyouts and mergers and ended up Marvelous. None of Victor interactive Software guys work there anymore. What was left is now Toybox.

Both Natsume and Marvelous have a claim to Harvest moon, but moreso Natsume. They have been the publishers/funders since day 1. The IP is rightfully theirs. 

the changes in right holders gets more confusing that the Zelda timeline. but at the end of the day, these Harvest Moon games are offically listed as a different video game series while the Story of seasons games are listed as sequels to the old Harvest Moon games

No it's not. It's very clear who holds the IP rights. Which company gets to call their version Harvest Moon and which one doesn't?
