This is a little late for Delibird, but I'm wondering if people can recommend all of their favorite places to go for spotlight hour? I work in the financial district and usually get off right around when they start, so closest to there is preferable, but I'm open to going uptown as well. The best place I've found near FiDi is part of battery park where there's a massive cluster spawn, but once I get through that, the surrounding areas are kind of dry.

For Delibird I went to Bryant Park, but I don't play over there very often, so I ended up taking a route where there weren't really many spawns after leaving the park. So what I'm really asking for is a route or loop I can walk to keep the spawns flowing with fast catches.

I love this series so much, it has had such a deep emotional impact on me, and I've rewatched it so many times. And the one thing I've noticed every time I've watched it is how much of an impact Roland's wisdom has had on Violet.

It only really takes place in two episodes, the OVA and episode 9 when Violet is struggling with her depression about the major.

But in both cases, Roland’s wisdom has shone through like no one else’s possibly could have.

He had a far bigger role in the OVA, and I love his quotes so much. (Forgive me for enjoying the dub)

“I don’t know much about complicated matters. However, letters reach their destination if they have one. And if they don’t, they always get returned to the sender. Although, war is undeniably cruel. it’s indiscriminate.”

“Those never reached a destination. In fact all of these letters lost both their senders and recipients.

Even though all of these letters were overflowing with the feelings of the people who wrote them, none of them will ever have the chance to reach someone.”

Everything Roland did guided Violet perfectly into not only writing the perfect finale to an opera, but truly understanding love a lot more.

And then in episode 9, when Violet was basically at her lowest, Roland was the saving grace, or at least the spark, towards bringing her out of the hole she was in.

“Each one of these letters is someone’s precious memory after all. And every letter deserves to be delivered.”

After that, Violet diligently delivered all of the letters, and was able to see the impact she had on people’s lives.

I feel like Roland’s role was small in the series, but I truly believe he played one of the most important roles in Violet’s emotional development. He lit the spark that inspired two of the most important turning points in Violet’s emotional development, and he did it so kindly.
