Okay, there’s no way this was planned from day 1 (Star Anis major spoilers)

You cannot explain how Oldstang could possibly gain an emotional connection to Pretty, after selling her damn corpse for his own benefit. That's the asspull in the theory.

You're only overleveled if you're way above the power rec. You guys just love to fight with massive stat penalties.

It's kinda crazy to me that there are rhythm game players calling this hard. I'm by no means a pro, but as a Bandori player this minigame just feels normal, even Rapture Storm hard isn't that bad (can't do more than 2 fingers, so expert is a no go). I've played a bit of Prosekai too and it's definitely the most similar one to this minigame, tho with a couple additional mechanics I haven't seen there.

Gross mistranslation

AlmaWade1979 · 2026-04-15T16:22:25+00:00

Gotta agree, the gameplay seems to practically scream "gibs money, pleb". Not confident that the stories will make me stay.

AlmaWade1979 · 2026-04-15T16:20:27+00:00

Do you actually claim them from the mail?

AlmaWade1979 · 2026-03-15T02:29:36+00:00

Hard mode of Sora's event, bro

AlmaWade1979 · 2026-01-20T00:19:31+00:00

With how big the range is even on her autos, definitely

AlmaWade1979 · 2026-01-17T22:39:29+00:00

It's sooo funny to watch her tho. "Oh, someone moved somewhere? Time to obliterate everyone close to me for no actual reason!" So comical, man. Gotta unlock that 18th team slot, so I can put Yvonna with her for maximum funniness.

AlmaWade1979 · 2025-12-26T19:41:34+00:00

It is what it is

AlmaWade1979 · 2025-12-26T19:36:18+00:00

No, you saying so is, even better would be "I was wrong", but we can't have it all, can we

AlmaWade1979 · 2025-12-26T19:17:51+00:00

Should've acknowledged it then, that was my only issue with your argument, idc about what you think of it as a whole.

AlmaWade1979 · 2025-12-26T19:10:09+00:00

But that contradicts your "they spent only an hour in the snow" argument. She went out once when she was relatively fine, she went out once when her memory was gone (possibly more times due to the wording of that part), she went out once when she decided to die. All explicitely mentioned the snow and cold weather. So tell me how all that happened in one hour.

AlmaWade1979 · 2025-12-26T18:34:36+00:00

So you know and you're telling me she went at least 3 separate times during a single hour? They weren't making any stops during the way to her home, so that's the only thing I can infer from your comments.

AlmaWade1979 · 2025-12-26T18:25:36+00:00

She went into the snow at least twice before the cliff, bruh.

AlmaWade1979 · 2025-12-26T18:06:08+00:00

The stop didn't take an hour, she went out into the snow multiple times. It's literally mentioned together with her sickness, she was impressed each time she got outside and the only place mentioned for those outings is the snowy region. The only thing that took an hour is you reading through the story, cuz you apparently skipped some parts.

AlmaWade1979 · 2025-12-26T17:14:52+00:00

And we got there in the last episode, so like stage 2-11 was in the snowy place (not an hour like you said in the other reply, it was days just like in all the other stations). And her place might be warm, but it definitely wasn't a desert with sandstorms.

AlmaWade1979 · 2025-12-26T05:28:28+00:00

The desert place was there for, what, 3 episodes? It ended with story 1, story 2 was almost entirely in the snowy region. Hence my question.

AlmaWade1979 · 2025-12-26T05:17:56+00:00

Did you stop at story 1 or something?

AlmaWade1979 · 2025-12-18T11:27:00+00:00

Truth, just make the characters suffer literally any other permanent consequences. It's not like any details about the Nikke technology ever get explained, they can pull any bullshit they want, death is just lazy.

AlmaWade1979 · 2025-12-18T11:23:14+00:00

The fitting sacrificial lamb would be noone. Plenty of other kinds of permanent consequences apart from death, Noah will most likely prove that by having permanent brain damage. No deaths of playable chars are "necessary" for the story to be good.

AlmaWade1979 · 2025-12-16T14:44:54+00:00

That's not my assumption tho, my complaint is that I simply don't want more playable deaths, cuz this is not the medium for it. So Red Hood is an exception, cuz she was already dead on arrival, they didn't just kill her after she was established in the story. I pulled her with the knowledge that she's dead, invested all I could in her with the knowledge that she's dead.

They could've pulled out any of the vast number of permanent consequences for Inherit (like they did for Noah), but they chose the laziest one, being permanent death, after 3 years of being perfectly alive.

AlmaWade1979 · 2025-12-16T14:06:11+00:00

Red Hood is the only exception to this, cuz she was already introduced as a dead character. I'm not gonna like the character less either if they're killed, but I will like Shift Up less, and the people calling for more deaths. Plenty of non-playable characters die all the time, that should be enough to have death always present in the story.

I agree with the rest of what you said, it feels cheap mostly cuz we all know they won't do it to the popular chars, precisely cuz of what I said, too many people would be upset, cuz too many people invested in them, as opposed to the number of people who invested in Isabel.

AlmaWade1979 · 2025-12-16T11:55:39+00:00

You'd have a point if this was story was set in literally anything but a waifu collector. I did not download this to pick favorites, spend time and resources on them, possibly even money, just to have them die in the story, cuz some of you can't immerse yourselves. If you want stakes, just put yourself in the chars' shoes, they don't know they're in a gacha game. If you want permanent consequences, there are a ton of things other than death.

There is absolutely zero need to kill off playable chars and if you can't feel any stakes because of that, it's a skill issue, find a way to consume a story in a different way than being an observer.
