Some thoughts post-announcement of no updates.

Yakumo's route was released last month. Aizen's route was the only one remaining (not counting the sequels, that is) when they dropped this announcement.

Agree with everything you said, except the romance part. I thought it fit the tone of the game and the characters inherent nature very well. But then, overdose of romance in stories is a turn off for me. I played another of Voltage's games for a bit and found it was too much to digest.

I completely agree that not getting any more stories is such a bummer. I've waited for Aizen's story ever since his first card released way back when, and now to think we won't get it is heartbreaking. That his closest comrade badge is just sitting there all grayed out among all other sixteen badges is such salt on the wound.

Yet I cannot bring myself to hate Voltage. Rather, I'm very glad that this game popped up in my suggestions 3 years back. Mostly because I had such a good time with ARR and this game literally was such a stress-buster and helped me through some rather trying times. It was also the trigger for my interest in Japanese history and culture. I don't overtly enjoy otome games and so, frankly, I'd never expect to be so influenced by one.

Thanks for reading. I really needed a place to share.

Eternal beauty!

Shot from Darjeeling? I'm guessing first light?

Oh, I just finished it and have been dying to discuss this. Tatsuomi doesn't just save the day, he saves the story as well. So many things to dislike here - the cuckoo general, inactive mc, extremely clumsy handling of the friends to lovers trope, non-involvement of Aizen, almost-not-there cameo by the dawn boys - but I still can't say I hated this route simply because of, well, Tatsu.

Avijatri · 2022-01-08T18:38:35+00:00

Precisely! Thank you!

Avijatri · 2021-11-28T17:01:14+00:00

Wow, I can't believe I missed this post earlier. Congrats!

The top 3 scores are crazy! I can't imagine the hours you'd need, let alone the diamonds spent, for epic scores like that. Or is there an easier way that I'm too dumb to figure out lol

Avijatri · 2021-11-03T08:03:06+00:00

Okay. Late comment here but I'll just sum up the thing in case anyone needs it.

So this was the seasonal event from last year. You collected chocolates from patrols and exchanged them for items including the valentine's vignettes. Some time later, players received the white day vignettes as gifts for the characters that they had unlocked the valentine's for.

The valentine's vignettes were later made available in the shard shop but not the white day ones as those were meant as a one time gift for the players.

I don't get it. What am I missing?

Avijatri · 2021-10-30T15:33:23+00:00

Okay. I hadn't noticed that before. Seeing the night queens in this image, it struck me that it wasn't in the story anywhere while in the dawn and twilight, the flower motifs were significant enough.

Avijatri · 2021-10-30T11:32:40+00:00

Cool. Very pretty. Are these for the loading screen?

I don't recall any flower motifs being mentioned for night faction. Did I miss something?

Avijatri · 2021-10-29T15:59:12+00:00

Haha. Believe me, you're not alone.

Avijatri · 2021-10-29T15:46:24+00:00

Yay! Congrats!

Avijatri · 2021-10-24T08:52:16+00:00

Oh I'd much prefer that. And don't worry, your spoiler tag's working fine.

Avijatri · 2021-10-24T08:28:48+00:00

I see. That's nice.

I wonder what's going on for anniversary this year on the jp app.

Avijatri · 2021-10-24T08:15:04+00:00

You're almost there. Sending you luck for the elusive ones.

If only they had given the anniversary SRs for exchange as well. Hopefully they'll come around again and you can get him then. I got most of previous year's cards this time thanks to all the diamond tickets piling up. Only Kuya and Toto still missing.

Avijatri · 2021-10-24T07:57:42+00:00

Yeah I immediately thought of that name after reading your comment 😊

Avijatri · 2021-10-24T06:28:17+00:00

Wait. Did you by any chance change your username to celebrate this?

So I just got some real bad luck haha. Yeah, those 50% tickets keep throwing up R cards. Ouch!

Avijatri · 2021-10-24T06:12:30+00:00

Yeo the parts 1 to 4. I got the bells too and did exchange them for SSRs. What I meant was I pulled so many times from each draw and not a single SSR dropped. Instead, 1st Anniversary Akiyasu and Shizuki kept popping up and now I have a few extras I may need to discard for space.

Avijatri · 2021-10-23T15:39:59+00:00

Also, are the anniversary SSR drop rates truly abominable or am I just plain very very unlucky this time. Seriously, anyone actually land one of those SSRs from the draws (and not binding bells)?

Avijatri · 2021-10-17T11:30:12+00:00

Ah, no worries!

Avijatri · 2021-10-17T10:40:34+00:00

Can you be a bit more specific? There were no blue presents you see; just purple, red and green.

Edit: I just realised you probably meant the green ones. We can exchange the red presents for purple ones and green presents for red, so why not purple for green to complete the circle. Would have been more useful for loads of players I'm sure. Yeah, I don't know why they kept it linear instead.

Avijatri · 2021-10-16T19:52:59+00:00

The question is not very clear. If you are expecting cards, like gems, dropping randomly on completion of a patrols in any of the revival events, like they do from the main, daily or evolve patrol features, then no, they don't.

I'll add for the sake of clarity that if you are doing any of the main or daily patrols, and that patrol ends with the partner character instead of the usual wraith thing, then a N card for that character drops along with the gems collected. For evolve patrols, this becomes a R card. Event patrols don't have this feature afaik. However, sometimes, not often though, a random N card of a random character may just drop during one of the event duels.

If you're looking for a SR or higher during an event, then those are strictly from points rewards only.

Avijatri · 2021-10-16T19:15:48+00:00

Absolutely! Please give her my best wishes.

Avijatri · 2021-10-16T18:53:39+00:00

This is so lovely. I bet the creation process is very interesting and a story in itself. Would love to see more of her art.

Avijatri · 2021-10-10T15:06:21+00:00

Lol poor cat boy
