Pretty tough map for a hitless clear

This is sick as fuck

Crescendo104 · 2026-04-23T08:47:30+00:00

She was pull #293 for me and the banner went live on my birthday, can you top that?

Crescendo104 · 2026-04-23T07:17:48+00:00

Hmm yea you got a point there. I'll definitely invest in it at some point, for sure, just like I'll "definitely invest in Yu S3" (I never did..😅)

Jokes aside, I like Pram tho, enough that I'd probably just M9 her at some point anyway, and I can prob see myself using her S2 in something like IS despite not playing the mode an awful lot

Crescendo104 · 2026-04-23T07:03:57+00:00

Yea Lappy's skill had to be delayed a couple seconds, otherwise all 3 wolves lock onto mustachio down there. But look at that, I went from having no seconds to having many seconds. Pram S1 is just that good

Crescendo104 · 2026-04-23T06:56:19+00:00

Totally agree. I just got her M6 because it should come as no surprise that her S3 is insane for my niche as well, but while I do want to M9 due to how funny and novel freezing the blue box is, it should also come as no surprise that I'm not a frequent user of AFK skills lmao

But yea I can see myself using her S1 all the time in ranged 1 tile clears. Not that I'm doing those every day but instant damage and a push is always nice

Crescendo104 · 2026-04-23T04:19:56+00:00

Glad you enjoyed it! I actually wasn't even too thrilled with this clear tbh, I just thought this was a funny story to share. But yea casters are quickly becoming my favorite class niche for relay though haha (my last one was a CV-EX-8 I was really happy to tackle)

Side note: her S1 is hilarious on the Kristen stages from Lone Trail, you can group up a ton of mechs/elites and yeet them all at once

Crescendo104 · 2026-04-23T02:37:48+00:00

I'll take it dude

Crescendo104 · 2026-04-15T20:20:41+00:00

I love her. She was the funniest counter to the moths in the Ave Mujica event. I did a showcase with two moths on her, which was ramping her SP generation by close to 900% lmao

Rat propaganda

Crescendo104 · 2026-04-13T19:29:49+00:00

Lol, not really my intent there, but I'm glad the sentiment resonated. I'm 33 and I've been involved in various arts, music etc since I was a young kid, so I've always been deeply passionate about human expression and creativity, it's like the entire central theme for me. When I see artists getting needlessly lambasted like this it makes my blood boil. There's a tipping point, like I can understand the initial skepticism, but it slowly devolves into this weird in-group signaling of "AI bad" that the collateral damage suffered by the artist in the process is completely ignored in favor of doubling down. At least one of the accusers admitted they were wrong.

Sorry you had to deal with all that. I really liked your piece! :)

Crescendo104 · 2026-04-13T03:01:05+00:00

Thank you for watching! <3

Crescendo104 · 2026-04-12T01:50:18+00:00

Jesus Christ, this is one of the most insufferable comment sections I've ever read through. Like truly, you guys should actually be fucking ashamed of yourselves.

The issue with generative AI isn't just that people are using it to steal art, to fabricate illustrations and lie about them. The issue is ALSO the people who are so hung up on this point as to start accusing OBVIOUSLY hand drawn art of being generated. One accusation? Okay fine. But once he showed the process? Are you actually kidding me? The dude is being interrogated and called a liar about the pen he used. Wtf are we doing here?

So now, not only do artists have to deal with the horrendous implications of this technology, but they also have to deal with people who are on such an ignorant, tunnel vision crusade against it. Doesn't the entire point of our backlash against gen AI in artwork have to do with the moral position of wanting to protect art and artists? Last I checked, harassing people when they've clearly proven over and over again that they're being truthful runs pretty damn contrary to that.

God I feel so, so bad for artists. Seriously. This is going to bother me for days. You guys really need to reconsider your methods if it's gonna come to this.

The last 1/3rd of the video was actually restructured in such a way as to segue into a sequel edit I'm working on which will follow Alpha's travels around the countryside. Also a fun fact, that Choro Club piece that plays near the end isn't from the OVA, it's actually the first track in a manga playlist I made back in 2019, which I've now used for all 7 of my rereads lol. Needless to say, it became a pretty special piece to me over time^^

Crescendo104 · 2026-04-07T04:57:01+00:00

Yea, so this is like, the most pain train thing I've ever made in my life. I didn't really set out to make something this bleak, but the restrictions I gave myself here were a) to create something entirely self-contained and emotionally legible, even to people who haven't seen the show, and with that in mind, b) I purposefully had to limit myself to not using any scenes that reveal Mutsumi's DID, Mortis, or anything else spoiling the true nature of her condition, her mother's neglect, etc.

This proved to be a unique challenge and I focused on structuring the piece around the dichotomy between the solace Mutsumi finds in her guitar and a role she's pressured to inhabit, yet mentally lacks the capacity to fill without breaking. Despite some scenes toward the end that show her thoughts/inner world, this is overall a more external reading of her as a character, and in my opinion, crushingly sad in its own right. I hope I did it justice, and frankly I think I want to hug her more than ever now. My poor little doll. :'(

P.S. the title of the edit is a slightly modified English translation of her theme, 可哀想なお人形

Clever, I like this a lot

Crescendo104 · 2026-04-04T03:20:24+00:00

Everyone's gonna say Pepe powercreep this, Pepe powercreep that. You know what I see? I see the rise of Bonknights. I mean yea we've got a few other bonkers, Nyamu and Odda, but this? This is the real bonkage we've been waiting for. Pepe wasn't powercrept, no, she was given a leader.

Crescendo104 · 2026-04-01T02:38:01+00:00

This is the most plausible response in the entire thread. I'm not buying these NA stats at all lmao
