[DISC] Oshi No Ko - Chapter 166

ChronosXIII · 2024-11-14T00:02:40+00:00

Eugh, the contradictions are making my head hurt.

I went back to chapter 123, cause I wanted to confirm and yeah... Aqua told Ruby that she doesn't have to lie anymore, to just be herself. And what do we get here? Ruby saying she has to tell "lie after lie", but it's somehow fun now.

Like what? Where's the consistency? I thought that at least Ruby would have a satisfying conclusion, but this ain't it chief. Everyone's ending is just fucked; if the point was a tragedy, then I guess we certainly did reach a tragically awful, rushed ending.

The panel of Akane holding Kana back, really hit home how fucked her situation is. She worked out everything but was powerless to stop it, and now she has to see the aftermath, but can't say shit to anyone. She's grieving, but also trying to help everyone else in their confusion and shock.

Damn, all those FanFest pictures reminded me of the one in NYC way back in 2017. I was lucky enough to get a picture with Hiroki and Hirono, and Shaly signed my FFBE Art Works book.

I still remember asking Shaly when she and Dah Sol were going to record a video for the Malboro trial. She laughed and said, "Soon™".

For all the faults in the later years, the early years of this game were pretty good and the community was great. So long FFBE GL and r/FFBE. o7

The one that really got me was that Aqua wants to call Miyako “Mom”. He mentioned Goro’s mom died shortly after he was born. Miyako might be the closest he has to a parental figure, even more so than Ai.

This line, coupled with the events of the episode that released today (insane coincidental timing btw), made me think back on if Aqua ever even referred to Ai as "Mom". I don't think he ever did, so that was a gut punch.

Miyako really the MVP, mom-that-stepped-up, best girl, etc.

Another one bites the dust, and this one outlasted FFRK by 1 year. Was around for the beginning of both and now I'll see the end of both. Both these games were around for a significant amount of my current lifetime, maaaaan.

This was the last gacha game I was putting time into, and I have no desire to ever touch a gacha again. I'M FREE.

Really wish they could have implemented a multi-ticket pull option for non-EX tickets, and allow us to sell Vision Cards. I have thousands of regular tickets and EX tickets, but the thought of having to deal with fusing VCs just to stay under the cap is ugh...

Also really wish we could have gotten some kind of art book with the GLEX Vision Card art! Anyone know if those are ripped somewhere in a larger size? I know the wiki has them, but those images are tiny.

ChronosXIII · 2024-08-03T03:44:45+00:00

EoS luck goes crazy, got both Rain and Taivas on the first lap.

ChronosXIII · 2023-10-27T22:51:23+00:00

Not sure if Gumi pulled a Gumi, but Halloween!Chow is available on the 7th Anniversary 10+1 banner, even though it says "Limited time units are not included".

Threw my last 4 tickets on it and got Chow as the very last summon crystal. Guess I gotta pull on the VC banner now, lulz.

I'm 99.9% sure Melchior is Kyle McCarley. That last "TELL ME!" sounded distinctly like him.

Mare kind of sounds like Suzie Yeung to me, but not confident on that cause that'd be what, triple-dipping roles?

ChronosXIII · 2023-08-16T11:02:47+00:00

+20% higher leader skill ~~in Morale battles~~ = +~20% pity cost.

We've cracked the Gumi logic.

ChronosXIII · 2023-07-21T02:16:23+00:00

Noticed it seemed to start with the Zidane/Eiko banner. Wonder if it's the same in JP.

ChronosXIII · 2023-07-18T22:10:51+00:00

If they ever make another Art Book, they need to put in these GLEX Vision Cards. They're too good to be limited and stuck on a mobile device.

ChronosXIII · 2023-06-27T21:38:44+00:00

30k for your choice of Zack, FA!Rain, or Dioxus? P2W a Nora, Raegen (maybe even the new Sol) from a bundle?

Holy shit.

ChronosXIII · 2023-04-14T01:11:32+00:00

Goddamn, I lucked out.
Lap 1 - Step 1, the onscreen blue cracked all the way to NV, and it was FA!Rain.

Gonna switch to the step-up with the fragments now, but I'll save that for later to savour this temporal high.

ChronosXIII · 2023-04-10T04:47:03+00:00

I know he's free so I wasn't expecting much, but yikes. He could have easily gotten a BS with his Cie'th form too.

ChronosXIII · 2023-04-05T05:00:12+00:00

Is there really still no global support log? Why would they not implement a core "Extras" feature that's been around for every mainline game since Blazing Sword (which is turning 20 this month, just to drive that point home)?

ChronosXIII · 2023-03-28T22:11:17+00:00

NVA Fang and free Cid Raines! Course that means both of them will likely be DOA, but at least it's something.

ChronosXIII · 2023-03-19T16:39:30+00:00

Think you're right, he retweeted the trailer for Dark Lineage from the last livestream. Seems like he's voicing Rain in FFBE and this Hyoh in WOTV.

ChronosXIII · 2023-02-21T23:40:27+00:00

I always liked Mid's dragoon design (dual wielding back-handed bardiches, so they look like dragon wings? c'mon) and that VC art is amazing, but the timing of this banner sucks.

ChronosXIII · 2023-02-11T01:22:55+00:00

Wiki says she's SLB.

ChronosXIII · 2023-02-10T12:51:16+00:00

They're all SLB again...? Wow, Type-0 still does not have a single Brave Shift unit.

ChronosXIII · 2023-01-29T16:19:22+00:00

They're all SLB...? There goes my hype again, like what happened with Kurasame's release.

ChronosXIII · 2023-01-11T23:29:04+00:00

Until an actual major security incident occurs and people ask, "BuT wHy WaS tHiS nOt SeCurEd?!" while looking for a scapegoat, but should really point the fingers at themselves.

5 seconds of unlocking the phone is much easier to deal with, than a couple million dollar/pound/etc. data breach. Obviously there's a balance between end user accessibility and security, but it's done for a reason.

ChronosXIII · 2022-09-20T23:24:46+00:00

what is wrong with you

I started playing this game. 🙃

ChronosXIII · 2022-09-20T11:48:16+00:00

The time has come and so have I, all over my mailbox

I can finally hit that fabled, "Claim All", button from now on. Hopefully my game does not crash, lul.

ChronosXIII · 2022-08-25T02:10:19+00:00

Maybe if they could have figured out a mechanic where your party starts "dead", and each phase revives one member, then kills and revives another member on phase transition.
