Falcom may have forgotten them, but they live on forever in their fans' hearts!


Falcom may have forgotten them, but they live on forever in their fans' hearts!
This series is already struggling to balance just the quintet (Kaho didn't even truly have a volume to herself) + Haruna, it really doesn't need to keep introducing more characters.
In general, the pacing feels a lot more plodded so far in books 5 and 6 overall, and it's kind of hit an issue I have with a lot of harem anime where it mostly stop doing anything with the girls once they've been added to the harem and starts focusing instead on adding more girls that it'll mostly start ignoring once their addition arcs are over.
Availability in Sky 3rd is their best stat!
Mueller not even having brief availability all throughout Erebonia is always going to be weird to me.
The OG all-shielder and CP battery! Thuogh Elie and especially Alisa will end up doing the second part a lot better.
Character order might be a little wonky until we get into Crossbell, bear with me on that, please :)
I loved how mercilessly she cut through Haruna's defensiveness over skipping school and called her "smart aleck" out for what it was. It's a nice reminder that just because she's sweet around her friends it doesn't mean she can't be harsh when it's called for.
Hey folks! About two months ago I showed off the Emma figure I bought (second hand) as a sort of bday gift to myself.
Naturally I got a case right away to protect it from dust, but as for how to decorate the inside, I've actually gone through several different experimental iterations. I've basically always had LED lights inside, but for a while I experimented with coiling them around a stand that the Emma figure would sit on top of, but that just didn't work out. This new setup is working quite a bit better. If you're curious, the cord for the LED lights slips out through the back of the case.
The blue flowers behind her are meant to stand in for the blue flowers you find all over in Eryn Village. I think I might get one or two more to fill up the gap in the middle behind her. Not sure sure yet if I wanna try hanging anything from the top portion of the case, any suggestions are welcome :)
Just thought I'd share and do a little blogging on it :)
He's genuinely fantastic when he locks in and isn't being a goofy unaware womanizer. His threat to >!Novartis!< attempting to make KeA into a test subject was amazing.
While you're all discussing this giant fraud, just remember: he's very likely one of the strongest playable characters lore-wise until at least the start of CS3.
I'd make a joke about her FC/SC performance being what you get when you send small children into battle, but that wouldn't age well at all.
I'm getting whiplash at all the characters voiced by Laura Post doing her Ahri voice, and I really like Post's work!
Did they actually rig up new buttons and special animations for this? That's some dedication.
That was a really cute scene though, I had fun with it.
The OG Rager, who went from getting table scraps in CP from Wild Rage in FC to getting a fortune in SC.
Erika seething in the background.
The OG mage with support crafts! Though Falcom tried to lean too heavily in the support direction with her three water locks. It's a genuine warcrime that she's not playable in Reverie.
I think Rixia is best girl in Crossbell so I don't mind this one bit, but I don't get why Falcom sticks with Elie as Lloyd's "default" pairing when they just don't do anything with them as a couple, at least Alisa gets pretty poignant bonding events with Rean throughout Cold Steel.
Juna kinda feels like old Estelle 2 Electric Boogaloo in that her kit's too unfocused for her to lock in. The fact she lost her accel is extremely painful.
Musse just doesn't have any of the tools mages need (low levels of Cast and no Bells, relying on default Orbment setup because I don't have enough Septium to forge anything of note and default Orbment setups are almost never good in this series).
Ash is a slow Craft specialist with a gigantic delay on his Rage craft, which feels like 'nuff said to me.
Altina lost her stealth and Artium Heal is pretty weak to a healing craft, so aside from Arts (same problems as Musse) all she's got is Fragarach, which is strong, granted.
Kurt at least has a good kit, no complaints about him.
And then to add insult to injury their S Crafts (and also Rean's for some silly reason) all have lower damage multipliers compared to the SSS.
