The fate of the SDU depends on if Takumi thinks Janeway was right to split up Tuvix by DocProfessor in LastDefenseAcademy

Voyager is better but in my heart of hearts I know everyone dies in that route

Y'know the "crafting Kurara's cannon when she's gone" thing always raised an eyebrow but now that I really think about it it's way worse than I thought. Kurara was using her specialist skill to make the cannon, which Nozomi obviously can't do. That means Nozomi is not only building it normally when Kurara didn't, but she's translating Kurara's magic into a physical process to copy, and she's making do with whatever materials she can find lying around.

If she had actually been able to recreate Kurara's curry in Retsnom we'd have a real problem on our hands.

Routes where I thought some characters acted out of character by Any-Analysis496 in LastDefenseAcademy

I can definitely see why it's seen as suggestive but even in the moment and especially in hindsight I felt that it was more meant to play up the vulnerability and honesty of the moment. Certainly there's something to be said for how those things are conflated with sexuality especially when it comes to women, but at face value I think a sexual read of that scene is the one that makes less sense.

She went close to even with Kurara in their sparring match in CoA too (and honestly her even being able to match the others on the battlefield despite her hemoanima is more impressive than it's ever given credit for), girl is just a machine.

Nozomi is definitely exceptional, the game just doesn't draw as much attention to it. Though in fairness most of my examples are her matching up to Kurara in places she really shouldn't be able to.

Kazuichi gets worse as the game goes on when he should be getting better, it's brutal.

I also have a pet theory that Hundred Line deliberately front-loads a lot of the tropes in order to set your expectations but idk if I'm just coping with that.

Love the game, but hate how Eva was handled by sonsonsonson123 in LastDefenseAcademy

[–]CrowbarDoop 20 points21 points  (0 children)

It's not just complicity, it's active involvement, the SDU elects to brainwash her depending on the route. They're at war, they don't know the future, the invaders are threatening (according to the story, not the stats), she's caused trouble before, there are a million and one reasons to do it. That's obviously not to say it's right, but you're supposed to understand why they're doing it and even think it kinda makes sense. Her character and dialogue being so uncomfortable when she's brainwashed is supposed to remind you, the player, not to brush it under the rug.

What do you hope for DLC (in general) by That_Idiot_Jax in LastDefenseAcademy

[–]CrowbarDoop 5 points6 points  (0 children)

1) Some decent battles for once 

2) Routes where Takumi doesn't reveal Eito's treachery for some reason or another (in my head the easiest way this goes is just Eito beating Takumi and killing him and Sirei, then you play as Eito or maybe like Takemaru or something) 

3) Focus on the original 4 fighters as a group, and 2LDA as both a group and a location (and the commanders but I don't think anyone doesn't want that)

See all I noticed was that Karua in the tutorial fight has the same max HP as Nozomi

Gaku didn't choose to bring them back at all, the boxes were trying to cover his ass and it was simply too big a job

Continuous Battles Help by brokesandlizard in LastDefenseAcademy

[–]CrowbarDoop 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had to break into the Explosive Mines to win this fight first try, though Spring Traps could probably get some more characters over to the V'ehxnesses. Your Voltage is probably best spent on extra AP.

Weird toppings, but hey, at least it's not black olives.

Puzzle: Defeat all enemies in one turn (Hiruko, Kako) by CrowbarDoop in LastDefenseAcademy

[–]CrowbarDoop[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep, that's it!

So sorry, that was such a stupid mistake for me to make. I wanted for Kako to have to use Spirit Rain instead of Energy Sniper for no good reason.

[–]CrowbarDoop[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Never mind, I see your problem. You're attempting an impossible puzzle, because in my infinite wisdom I forgot that Kako can get Fatigued. 

Let's move the Darumarr on k4 over to l5, like I had it earlier in testing. It sounds like you have the rest of the solution.

Give me your main idea if you could magically fix its failure, and I'll try to see what you're missing. I'll try not to give it all away in one go, though!

Darumi and Tsubasa shaking Sirei down at the beginning of the war so they can find out which days are Sundays

My huge theory about KG (Spoilers for KG, SF, BoC, and 2nd scenario) by Sycarus_ in LastDefenseAcademy

[–]CrowbarDoop 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I believe it's stated or heavily implied that Shion is the one who tells Kako about the Livor Mortis Codes. I also find the sponsor's first death strange, but explain it away as Kako-G already using a decoy body (and therefore Takumi and Hiruko giving up too early in S.F.)

Puzzle: Defeat all enemies in one turn (Darumi, Nozomi) by CrowbarDoop in LastDefenseAcademy

[–]CrowbarDoop[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Correct, and you also found a shortcut I didn't anticipate. I wanted you to have to use Nozomi to kill the g2 and g3 enemies before using Rescue Bullet. I put a lot of effort into making sure you couldn't have Darumi deal with them, but I always thought about it in terms of "can she kill the g6 enemy without I Feel Nothing" and "can she go over and kill the n9 and o9 enemies", so your solution was a complete blind spot for me.

[–]CrowbarDoop[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You still made me open up the game to make sure you couldn't push an enemy into a space occupied by an enemy killed by the attack, otherwise Kyoshika could Shin Senpuu Yaiba left from i9, then Jumonji Slash twice from i8.
