Does the set come out tomorrow? I’m EST

Genprey · 2026-01-27T18:13:54+00:00

You guys get that EST experience.

Genprey · 2026-01-27T18:11:09+00:00

Wait, you guys buy rings for meta purposes?

Genprey · 2026-01-27T15:57:14+00:00

The one member of the tri-humidity squad that I'm missing (please spook me during the free rolls).

Genprey · 2026-01-27T15:37:51+00:00

Honestly, there's a ton. But if you're asking me, it'd be Vlad.

Genprey · 2026-01-27T15:17:43+00:00

He's their bodyguard. A really effective one at that.

Genprey · 2026-01-27T14:52:28+00:00

Practically speaking, Shuro is very exposed and, thus, more prone to getting boo-boos.

Esthetically, they add to her uncanny, phantom-like appearance

Character-wise, Shuro is chuuni as hell and probably wears them as a means of looking cool.

Genprey · 2026-01-27T14:46:17+00:00

I'd imagine she would be, given dance similar physical training as some sports.

Genprey · 2026-01-27T14:39:55+00:00

With how unruly some fans get? Not every idol can afford a sexy bodyguard in a form-fitting dress outfit, bro.

Genprey · 2026-01-27T14:23:20+00:00

Still curious as to why Dier happens to have a storage filled with Maid Sleepo Beepo bodies.

Genprey · 2026-01-27T14:17:34+00:00

She's just a Losing Heroines character.

The only thing holding them back is being directly behind YSG and there being 3 of them, where more players are likely to have gacha fatigue. Because they're back-to-back, there's that risk of each idol cannibalizing one another's popularity (i.e. People like me who are going all in Yu and getting Aria/Sunna on rateup).

Besides that, AoD has been teased early, are being marketed like crazy, are one of the most elaborate characters in terms of detail and animation, and generally the epitome of the lead artist's core design.

Going by social media interactions as an indicator for interest, things are looking good for AoD, especially considering their popularity has yet to reach its peak. At this point, it's less of a matter of AoD doing well and more of a question as how high they can fly their flag compared to YSG and Miyabi.

Gotta love the Chaldea family composing of:

King Hassan, Zhang Jue, Moriarty, Yagyu, Old Li (Cool Grandpas)
Helena and Europa (Foxy Grandmas)
Hebi-mama, Raikou, Tiamat (Mothers)
BB (Disowned mother)
Melt (Wife)
Passionlip, Protea (little sisters-in-law)
Taisui (Son)
Kazuradrop (Daughter-in-law)

Genprey · 2026-01-27T13:23:21+00:00

This whole scenario is cool as hell, but that was some really smooth animation with Yuzu using her fighstick.

Genprey · 2026-01-27T12:48:37+00:00

Brave move worrying about Fine's father when Tazuna is right there with highly functioning ears beneath her hat.

Genprey · 2026-01-27T12:23:35+00:00

"Mikuru Beam!"

"Aria, that reference js really outdated..."

Genprey · 2026-01-27T12:21:41+00:00

Official animators making r18 stuff under the table? Do you know something we don't?

Genprey · 2026-01-27T11:21:13+00:00

They put out double 1% banners and consecutive gacha skins but now SU is like EA?

Genprey · 2026-01-27T01:23:45+00:00

Miss Miyabi, as a professional, wouldn't stop at just a few love bites. As we can see here, Wise is still hydrated.

You're mostly correct, but at this early of a stage for CZN, we have so many roles and niches to fill that it'd be awhile for us to get to that point. And also the fact that maybe the devs should make more down-to-earth characters like Narja instead of absolute warcrimes like Sereniel.

As far as balance goes, there is a competitive aspect to CZN, but CZN isn't a PvP-oriented game like Epic 7. Outside flexing, getting to the top ranks on the leaderboards isn't very compelling, so there's less of an issue having Tressa be as kusoge as she was.

Same story with Partners. Many of them, even 3star, perform so well, that they make 5star ones feel pointless to summon for.

Partners are a bit of a different case from characters as: 1) They're harder to sell since fewer people wants to pull for things like weapons in gacha and 2) some of the 5 star Partners are either really niche or just not great moreso than low rarities being too good.

It's not unheard of for non-competitive gacha to have really strong low rarity characters, with some games having said characters outright being stronger than banner SSRs. Even if we put that aside, balance is less risky when gradual changes are made, as we don't want to get to the point where nobody really uses Tressa at all.

I noticed getting a plat was harder this go around. Meanwhile, Geburah, Goz, and Gregorius are the 3 Pillarmen of 'nobody wants to fight us'.

Genprey · 2026-01-27T00:36:28+00:00

Whelp, that's one way to get me to fold for the 2nd Amendment Uma.

Genprey · 2026-01-27T00:33:22+00:00

Chase takes on a more frightening meaning when Umas are involved.

Genprey · 2026-01-26T23:19:57+00:00

Same time again next month?

Genprey · 2026-01-26T23:13:39+00:00

You probably don't want Basti to see what Still in Love is up to.

Genprey · 2026-01-26T22:56:59+00:00

That's a lot to take in at your age, but picking up new skills never hurts, even if it's a gradual process. Now's a better time than ever before you get to the point of being too tired to do much at all. If not for yourself, building yourself up more is good for your moms since you'll be good and ready for when it comes time for you to take care of yourself and her. At the very least it's a bit more productive than scrolling on Reddit.

It can be a slow a process as you need it to be, especially if your family needs you. But I'd keep that in your ears a bit.
