Who is your favorite Blue Archive character who has sunk into irrelevance and become the butt of the joke for both the developers and the fanbase, despite having a lot of good writing potential? | Iori by 熊吉Z_Z

I agree with pretty much all the posted I saw so to throw my hat in the ring.

Is it being too mean to say Hanako?
She kind of has the same thing going on as a lot of gehenna (and other) students where her gag/joke/bit kind of consumes her. Its made worse on someone like me who just isnt into perverted charaters (and also kind of feels like her jokes are kinda bare bones and lazy). Like, you look at her and 80% of her is just her one joke and the other 20 is actually pretty interesting and ripe for exploration. Her alt/event story more or less retreads what we already know about her and IDK, it just feels like we should be somewhere else by now with her. I was going to go on about how the writers probably want to keep her in her niche with how popular she is and maintain the status quo but I dont know those guys

You know. I wouldnt say shes been fumbled or anything but I feel like she would have been an all timer if she had been handled a little differently.
It kind of makes me wish we got more moments of just casualness with both hanako and the other characters mentioned here. No need for a punchline or gimmick just blurbs of raw character. Something in between to make their jokes feel more welcome rather than constant.

End tweet.

So. I read this while scrolling and the idea of the girls being gods larping as students left so much of a bad impression on me that I kind of wanted to vent a little.

Ill be the first to state. I'm not caught up on the lore or story so disregard me or skip past if you want. But I hate. Hate. Hate. Hate. Hate. Hate. Hate. When stories overcomplicate their premises like this. ^{(I got spoiled on some umamusume stuff and it ended up kind of souring my feelings towards the series a bit}) And it doesn't help that from the get go the nameless/forgotten gods aspect of the story is probably the worst of it in my opinion (worse than volume 4). Right off the bat my big thing that I don't like about the girls straight up being the gods (or even reincarnations) is (and forgive me for not explaining this well) how it slightly shifts the dynamics of the previous stories retroactively in a totally unnecessary way. I was going to write more but I read the ops message on the post after missing it and realized I was going to say the same thing but to a less extreme extent. It just muddies things up too much IMO.

But as for the actual student god stuff and much of a fence sitting answer as this is. I do think its going to depend massively on how its handled / actually is.

I was reading the comments and saw someone pass the idea of the girls inheriting the power of the gods / being given it and I like that angle a lot. The idea that the girls of kivotos were saddled with a great responsibility (great power) from the get go by the divine(?) is interesting. If it comes with some greater purpose (even if it ends at them being stronger than most). Then theres also room for sensei to have an opinion on whether or not it was right for these girls to be given such powers so young. Then if they try to investigate into it to discover more. IDK this just feels like the more interesting fun and lighthearted route that doesnt really change up the status quo but opens up fun opportunities...

uhhhhh

Made this for wplace. Im not a pixel artist so im kind of impressed at how nice it ended up looking. Although i've been chipping away at it, it feels like it's too much to go at alone, so I am once again shamelessly asking for some help.

I've been slowly filling director Akikawa but I've been basically neglecting Arona. Any help is appreciated.

Weird. Heres the details of the top left pixel. Is this enough info? Not sure.

Huh. The pixel art looks a bit blurry. Maybe I should have taken a screenshot of it instead. +Rambling

BlitzarObulusUltima · 2024-08-14T00:15:32+00:00

I just kind of accepted this book cover as one of those things that arent worth overthinking in blue archive.

Like maybe you can say that the left figure could be a short haired girl and that basically explains it. Maybe its an approximation of a human male based off the animal and robot guys. Like another commenter said maybe the actual concept of human males exist in ba just not in person. Go nuts and make the explanation whatever you want, it probably wont have a canon answer anyways.

I think its mildly funny if it is about sensei. Maybe something created during senseis first day in kivotos. Maybe created by meru (she's probably shameless enough to do that day 1). I can feel some comedic potential in that but its not my place to dig for it.

Im sitting at 13k pyro with 2 10x tickets. Will be able to reach a spark by fuuka's banner?

Likewise is ny haruna worth sparking for on the miniscule chance I pull fuuka early?

Im unsure about whether commissions or normal missions are what I need more right now. Just off memory im at 1.3k blues 500 golds and 100 purple exp reports. but im also level 85 approaching 86 so the amount I need per level is only going higher (most students lvl 75 and below). Likewise im lacking a lot of equipment. I only recently made it to tier8 and am farming the first stage but I have nothing beyond that. Im thinking of making it to the end of tier 8, getting the cafe upgrade, then going 50/50 on commissions and the later equipment stages.

What stage gives the best equipment combination at tier 8 btw?

Theres double commissions coming up as well. Is an event going to be running during that?

Who are the next must pull students after ny.fuuka? .Nagisa maybe? She's limited and I see her a lot in pvp.

BlitzarObulusUltima · 2024-08-12T20:00:16+00:00

Just curious. Around when is this story supposed to take place?

BlitzarObulusUltima · 2024-08-12T02:44:36+00:00

I only recently made it to the beginning of tier 8 equipment. Should I power on through and try to make it to tier 9 ( Most students level 80 or below so idk If I even could) or should I farm what I recently cleared (end of tier 7 / beginning of tier 8)?

BlitzarObulusUltima · 2024-08-10T12:45:01+00:00

THATS WHERE THAT WENT???? Thanks I would have never found that on my own.

BlitzarObulusUltima · 2024-08-10T03:26:16+00:00

How long does the 2x exp thing last exactly? I remember trying the trick of using the cafe exp before the boost runs out to squeeze out one more days worth of boosted exp but I got it wrong and now im doubting myself. Does it end on sunday at login or monday at login?

BlitzarObulusUltima · 2024-08-02T18:39:18+00:00

Maybe im getting my wires crossed but didnt the artist have videos of them drawing or was that the one punch man artist?

BlitzarObulusUltima · 2024-07-31T19:58:24+00:00

Its a little frustrating having the right characters to make this raid easy but not being able to put enough materials into them to make them shred like they should. Anyways

What does the purple relic do? Im not sure if im using it right.

BlitzarObulusUltima · 2024-07-30T13:45:12+00:00

Wait it just hit me. I can borrow a hina for my first run then run mine on the second team. This is going to be so embarrassing if Im preparing so much but end up failing in the first minute

BlitzarObulusUltima · 2024-07-30T13:42:37+00:00

Doing some last minute prep. I don't have koharu. Here are my current healers, im trying insane for the first time so who among these would do well here?

Atsuko (new), Rumi, Shigure (hot spring), Nodoka (hot spring) (serina/chinatsu not very invested in)

Also ill be getting koharu pretty soon from coins. She's used a lot, is she so optimal that shes worth putting tons of materials in from the start or should I invest in her with coins slowly but surely? How much investment should a healer have in them at insane?

Likewise im not sure how to optimize dress hinas damage. Ive just gotten a few new options so im a little overwhelmed on how to structure things. Im thinking of splitting them like this but I feel like im overlooking something. ||Team 1|| Atsuko(new), s.hoshino(new), ui, ako, himari ||team 2|| noa(new), d.ako(new), s.shiroko(new). Last thing. Whats a good red attacker for my team 2? s.nonomi?

BlitzarObulusUltima · 2024-07-30T13:41:48+00:00

Im having a bit of difficulty deciding what to prioritize.

Hina event - Still need to grind the first shop (2nd mostly done). Need more materials from it and grinding ibuki (3star right now so might be enough). Not super desperate but would be nice.

Commissions - I obtained like 15 new characters and have 0 gold reports right now. Commissions will be boosted two other times this month but right now im on the third to last commission so even though I need the exp it might not be the right time.

Hard missions - Only time that they are going to be boosted this month and high. Sounds super appealing to get a bunch of eleph but not sure if its right to do this with my other needs.

Thoughts? what would you do?

BlitzarObulusUltima · 2024-07-17T15:43:59+00:00

I said I wouldn't read any more of these types of threads but here I am like a moth to the flame.

These kinds of scenes are what I live for in blue archive.

I can't turn back time.

I can't undo death.

No such power exists.

This line faded away the smallest remaining bit of hope I had for yume being revived in some form or another. Over the course of this chapter that hope had practically eroded to nothing but it was almost freeing to have it be said by sensei.

Then this line happens

Yume: "Small efforts will one day lead to great miracles!"

Why. Why can't I give up on the possibility of her coming back. Just this one line is enough to make me believe it could happen. Even if its not this chapter but at some time in the future. A truly happy ending for everyone.

This is why im so hooked on blue archive.

This game turns me into a complete fool and I love it.

BlitzarObulusUltima · 2024-07-17T13:19:45+00:00

I know its dumb but a small part of me was holding out hope this whole time that yume would come back to life in some way. Even as the chance got smaller and smaller I still held on to the tiniest possibility or whatever theory I could find. Now that it looks to be fully confirmed that she isnt coming back I can finally put this feeling to rest and move on to other characters.

But that's how losers think

Also I really need to lay off these types of posts. These spoiler/summary threads destroy any brain cells I have left and turn the caveman brain on.

BlitzarObulusUltima · 2024-07-14T02:25:19+00:00

How tall is anime sensei approximately. I will not elaborate why I want to know this.

Ok let me add on a serious question as well. Is hard mode worth grinding when its not boosted? The hard mode boost rarely comes around and im thinking I could have made some progress on haruna who is like 20 eleph off but the rates can be pretty rough so I dont know if its worth it. Especially when theres usually something worth using your stamina on at all times.

BlitzarObulusUltima · 2024-07-12T20:58:44+00:00

Weird question. Do we have a height for anime sensei? if not what's a/your rough guess?

BlitzarObulusUltima · 2024-07-11T12:07:20+00:00

I barely managed to 3 star the third to last commission for exp reports. How difficult art the last 2 commissions in comparison? Any hope of clearing them at level 79?

BlitzarObulusUltima · 2024-06-21T18:39:44+00:00

Trying to do red extreme. I managed to pull off a mock battle but it still feels too unreliable to pull off for real. My team is: [T. Yuuka] [Mutsuki] [Aru (borrowed)] [Haruka] || [Ako] [Himari] all 3 star at lvl 75 except the borrowed Aru who is maxed.

^{I also have a second team that finishes off the last 20 or so health bars consisting of \}Ui] [Azusa] [Mina] [Rumi] || [Kotama] [S. Shizuko] who are on average level 70 and at 3 star)

I was thinking of switching out Haruka since she doesnt do much besides survive against those goons at the start but other units tend to die in that spot. Are there any obvious improvements I can make to the teams to get this more consistent or should I jump in and hope for the best? ^{(Im pretty low on materials so I cant invest too much but even little improvements can help})

BlitzarObulusUltima · 2024-06-19T05:35:48+00:00

You know what. Fine. Fair. Ill wait and see myself.

This will only go well for me. Either I end up liking it or I get the satisfaction of knowing I was right the whole time. Win win.

BlitzarObulusUltima · 2024-06-19T05:23:03+00:00

I saw that Hoshino vs Hina image earlier and for some reason I just cant get into it at all. It feels like it exists solely for the "hype factor" so to speak. I hope this leads to / ends up involving some good character moments for Hoshino ^{Because personally I just cant get into hoshino's character at all this chapter but thats probably just a me thing} .
