I am sad. I couldn't get into this game (no fault of you wonderful translators however). This might be because life has been hectic with the move, new job and..girls and stuff. But I do WANT to get back into this! It just seems like scenario 2 was a rehash of the first chapter. I kind of got bored visiting all the same places and I hope this is not the case for the next three main characters, where each unlock-able just goes to the same locations as the main, as seems to be the case with the new character unlocked after beating Ryuus scenario. If that makes sense.
I know how you feel
To be honest this game is a bit tedious & repetitive because of the points you mentioned, most notable of which is the fact that you always pass through the same sets of events in almost all the scenarios with the only noticeable difference is the routes that Ryuu & Rouga and Lila and Shen's stories take with what Gaou & Chocolate and Naga & Mevius's stories take as well as dialogue & minor scenario related instances.
Dare I say the game is kind of not fun in that aspect & it can get boring fast. But thankfully the inter-twining story arcs makes the game an interesting game to actually sit through and play. With this in mind I must say the best way to enjoy "Burning Heroes" is to not play through it in one sitting, that is try finishing one scenario (or better yet a pair that go together, example Ryuu & Rouga's scenarios) at a time & then leave (dare I say, forget about it?) and do/play something else then come back after a few days or even weeks if you have to. This way when you do come back you've already exhausted the boredom you've felt from finishing similar scenarios
Another tip that will probably raise eyebrows I can give is use cheats, max out your team's levels & use the "no random encounter" cheat to breeze through the tedious & boring battles so you can focus more on the story which is the more important thing in my opinion
Oh & my presumption may be wrong but I think the real "Burning Heroes" in this game are those fellows you get to add to your entourage. Sure they're not the ones whose life stories are focused on in the game, but they're the ones who are always there up to the very end

@Red Soul:
I never expected a Pokemon reference coming out of that whole deal with the word "Poke" ROFL!
You may be right that the word "Poke" which in this case is read/pronounced as "Poh-kee" as opposed to its usual "Powk" pronunciation has been brought on by the whole "Pokemon" craze/phenomenon, but for the most part or rather from the stand point of those who are clueless about Pokemon, the intended use of the word "Poke" in this regard may not be so clear. I do get your point but in a different approach, let me explain... Because of how everyone in the game describes Gauo's personality &/or attitude I picture him as one of those so called ruffians who label themselves as "Thugz" or "gangstas" so in the back of my head I just kept telling myself that "Poke" might just be Gangsta slang just like with "hood", "crib", "boys" etcetera. . Boy did you screw me over when you said it was because of Pokemon LOL!
