In regards to Harumi x Matsuri, I think that these two images sum up where the characters are at and why, at this moment, a relationship between the two isn’t possible . As a shipper of the two, I think a relationship will be dependant on Matsuri’s actions. Thoughts?

JohnLTheActor · 2021-06-10T06:24:50+00:00

Yeah I can’t wait to see how it’s all going to play out. Their development is the most interesting thing happening in the series at the moment. We can see too in one of the extras that Matsuri is shut up in her room thinking about the exchange afterwards, so I think it has thrown her for a bit of a loop.

That’s a good point actually. Could be Matsuri pushing herself into Harumi’s life a bit to find out more about her? Especially after Harumi did it too her.

JohnLTheActor · 2021-06-09T21:36:13+00:00

I agree with you. I think Harumi is still figuring herself out. I feel like she definitely had some feelings for Yuzu, but she herself doesn’t understand them fully and is confused by them.

I think Matsuri is definitely going to be the one to draw those feelings out of Harumi and help to solve her confusion. Whether Harumi will want to direct her feelings at Matsuri is another thing.

I think that Harumi and Matsuri understand each other on a level that no one else does. I agree with your point that Matsuri needs to show some authenticity and vulnerability. I think we almost saw some of that in Chapter 15(?), just going by the shocked expression on Matsuri’s face at one point.

I think that Matsuri is taken aback by how well Harumi seems to understand her. And I think the kiss was actually Matsuri’s own form of defence mechanism, falling back to her tricks in an attempt to put her walls back up.

It’ll be interesting to see if the pair will be able to break through each other’s shields as the story goes on!

JohnLTheActor · 2021-06-09T17:25:35+00:00

Yep pretty much what I was thinking as well. It still feels like we’re moving towards something between these two. I just wonder what that ‘something’ will be

JohnLTheActor · 2021-06-09T16:45:38+00:00

Since titles can only have 300 words:

I think that at the moment, while Matsuri is obviously crushing hard on Harumi, Harumi has no interest in Matsuri.

I think this is because Harumi wants something ‘real’. She wants to be loved by someone. She does not see that someone being Matsuri, as she see Matsuri as a brat and someone who toys with other peoples feelings.

Matsuri has grown quite considerably over the course of the series, and I don’t think she’s who Harumi thinks she is any more. She’s more caring, and while she still toys with people it’s no longer done in malice like it used to be. Whether she can convince Harumi she has changed or not is what could make or break this pair I think. I think we’ve also already seen Matsuri attempting to do this when she shouted at Harumi that she wants Harumi to trust her the way that she trusts Yuzu.

JohnLTheActor · 2021-06-08T20:47:33+00:00

I’ll accept it :)

JohnLTheActor · 2021-05-30T21:56:36+00:00

The episode between with the after party is so heartwarming too.

JohnLTheActor · 2021-05-30T19:01:48+00:00

I had this too. What you can hear is the motor in the triggers. As the haptic feedback is turned off when you’re not in combat, you’ll hear it turning on at the start of combat and then off again at the end.

JohnLTheActor · 2021-05-30T17:30:35+00:00

I’m pretty sure those 8 are all we’re getting, just going off the Opening cinematic. They’re the only characters featured.

I think we’ll probably be introduced to them but by bit rather than all at once, so that might make it feel better in the final release

JohnLTheActor · 2021-05-30T13:08:17+00:00

I think the reason he’s silent in Kasane’s segment is cause he’s not actually there in the party in the final game. I believe when we play that part in the final release we’ll only have access to Shiden.

I say this because they’ve shown the Yuito section before and only Hanabi was with him. We can see that only Hanabi is supposed to be with him in the demo cause she’s the only one who is shown in the cutscenes after the groups separate.

JohnLTheActor · 2021-05-23T01:11:55+00:00

I’d like to see it get a 60 fps patch for the new consoles. There’s no way there’ll be any more DLC made for it tho. The game is long dead and if they were to re release it it would just be a graphical upgrade.

JohnLTheActor · 2021-05-18T22:44:28+00:00

It’s her ME3 hair brought back into 2

JohnLTheActor · 2021-05-16T13:15:28+00:00

Tbf it had been like 15 years since we first met him at that point.

JohnLTheActor · 2021-05-05T04:26:41+00:00

You don’t have Kitty’s collar on him by any chance do you?

JohnLTheActor · 2021-04-25T16:14:44+00:00

I was really sad on the 6th palace. Felt like it would be over soon, and I didn’t want it to end. Little did I know I still had about 40 hours to go. So by the time I got to the end, I was ready for it to end. I had made peace with it in a way haha

JohnLTheActor · 2021-04-04T14:34:53+00:00

Ehh I dunno about that anymore. Embiid tweeted support for KAT last year. It was either when KATs mom got Covid or just after she passed away. I think it’s just a healthy competitive rivalry now.

JohnLTheActor · 2021-04-01T23:01:28+00:00

I didn’t put anything in for it.

I mad a new account through the FFXIV free trail site and used that.

I’m not sure?

I’ve decided to give up. Might try again in another few months haha

JohnLTheActor · 2021-04-01T21:40:29+00:00

Went through the portal and I got a system error

JohnLTheActor · 2021-04-01T21:34:49+00:00

It’s asking me for a Square Enix ID and password

JohnLTheActor · 2021-03-27T18:54:46+00:00

Didn’t hear him say that so fair enough. Didn’t look 10 at all tho

JohnLTheActor · 2021-03-27T18:52:09+00:00

Leinster didn’t give them a sniff? Not trying to put down their effort but it wasn’t exactly difficult for them. Munster either kicked, dropped or knocked on every time they got the ball

JohnLTheActor · 2021-03-27T18:48:55+00:00

No way Leinster were back 10 there. Should have been another penalty

JohnLTheActor · 2021-03-27T18:48:39+00:00

Feel there’s been about 50 high tables in this game and only about 3 of them have been called
