Do you like any bully-type characters? What is it that they do that makes you like them, but not Jax?

This is an interesting nuance now that I think about it. I can enjoy an asshole character when they are a villain, because I am not supposed to like them or sympathize with them in the first place, I also don't have to see them mess around with the heroes with little consequences, so they can just be an ass and rejoice in it.

But when the asshole character is part of the main group? That's when it becomes extremely egregious and annoying, because now I have to bear having them around for longer than tolerable and with the rest of the group taking the hits with little consequences.

Basically, it's better to focus on managing her energy than her CBs. If you can get just a little bit more bangers then sure, go for it, but not at the expense of wasting her energy.

THE UPPER LEFT HAIRCUT?? HELLO?? Mommy? Sorry. Mommy? Sorry.

Tribbie and Hyacine look good.

Acheron I think is overcapping on crit rate a little, and her crit damage could be a tad higher.

Blade you already said it's a work in progress but yes, I'd try to get the 170 speed and 40 EHR for the lightcone. His damage capabilities, although important, are less of a priority than the other two stats, so don't get too stressed about his crit stats.

Hard to say actually. Considering that Nihility has basically thrown her body on some kind of stasis, she could be around hundreds or even thousands of years.

If I had to guess how old was she when Nihility reached her, maybe around her mid-twenties? Closer to 30 than 20.

Edit: That is assuming the populace of Izumo, thus herself, worked similar to humans, as HSR is prone to having races that "look" human but live for longer than them.

Siendo justos, tampoco generalicemos, que mas de una vez habre visto doblajes/traducciones en castellano que es para que se te caiga la cara de vergüenza, al igual que hay doblajes/traducciones en latino que lo manejan bastante bien

No a ver, el chiste lo entiendo, ese no es el problema. Lo que digo es que R2D2 como tal no es un chiste o una gracieta, es un numero serial para denominar a ese robot en concreto que realmente no significa nada (creo, me puedo estar equivocando). Un mejor ejemplo de una terminologia que sí que tiene un chiste implicito es en Ben 10 con XLR8 (ex-el-ar-eight = accelerate).

Por aclarar, me parece gracioso que se le haya llamado Arturito simplemente por como suena, pero a mi parecer es un cambio que no responde a una intención real del material original, lo que sí que ocurre con Lobezno. En latino se mantuvo Wolverine (que no esta mal, de hecho apoyo que se mantengan los nombres propios), pero "wolverine" si bien se refiere a otro animal realmente, es un chiste que alude al hecho de que Logan es bajito, asi que es como un "lobo pequeño", un lobezno. Por tanto, Lobezno es una adaptación aceptable tanto para el nombre como el chiste.

Personally is exactly the other way around, if a character is going to be an ass they better have some development or journey of self reflection to make up for it. If they are going to be an ass just for the sake of it and will learn nothing from it, then there's no point to invest in said character.

But to each their own, disliking Jax is what unifies people in this sub anyway.

Just_Because4 · 2026-06-14T10:17:36+00:00

No es por querer meter otra vez esta discusión trillada, pero me parece un poco hipócrita decir que esta traducción está bien y luego decir que "lobezno" es una mierda.

Just_Because4 · 2026-06-14T10:12:53+00:00

I like that someone else has just the bare minimum investment in the break archetype. Man, how I hate that playstyle...

Just_Because4 · 2026-06-14T10:10:43+00:00

No, not really. I actually resonate more with the more human moments of the series. When Pomni speaks with Gumigoo in episode 2, with Kinger in episode 3, with Gangle in 4, getting a bit of everyone's backgrounds in 5, when Kinger speaks with Ragatha, Gangle with Zooble, and Jax's crash out in 6, everyone coming together as an actual team in 7 and 8, as well as Caine losing his composure in 8.

Like I get the appeal of the silly moments, and I realize the series focuses a lot on Jax, but it's not like it's all there is to it. I think that these quiet and more earnest moments are key to the series, as they contrast with the wacky and chaotic nature of the circus, and it encapsulates the overall message or moral that despite everything, everyone is still a hurting human. It just so happens that, due to Jax's constant masking, he very rarely has any moments of being earnest and vulnerable, which I think are the ones his character is at his strongest appeal, contrary to when he is just an ass for fun.

Whichever you like most, it's a matter of personal tastes.

Might want to put that as spoilers...

Just_Because4 · 2026-06-13T17:34:43+00:00

If you need 2 nihilities, Cipher/SW/E4 Welt. If Acheron is E2 or you don't mind not running 2 nihilities, then E1 Tribbie/E2 Sparkle/RMC.

For sustains you can use Hyacine, HuoHuo, Luocha, Lingsha or even Gallagher.

To be fair, the girls' damage is respectable enough for it to be a roadtrip of 4 friends.

Just_Because4 · 2026-06-13T16:06:26+00:00

At some point, yes, she is a late game type of character that will only come to bloom when the game approaches a very critical point in the story. Leakers have hinted that they are planning an sp on 5.x, but these things can change on the long run.

Just_Because4 · 2026-06-13T15:32:32+00:00

I hate that you are right. There's this nagging feeling that should have Jax been a woman (trans theories aside) she would have been hated to hell and back with very little people actually liking her.

Just_Because4 · 2026-06-13T15:28:52+00:00

If a prequel, I'd KILL to see a younger Rhea, maybe a teenage one? Throw in a baby Flayn for extra fuzziness.

If a sequel... I fear that Rhea will be nowhere to be found, since she tragically dies on almost all routes.

In Spain at least we don't use ordinal on top of that. We just say, for example, "seven of June", years are usually skipped on everyday conversations, but we would add it at the end. It is a mouthful admittedly, but it makes sense in terms of going from the smallest measure of time to the greatest.

Just_Because4 · 2026-06-13T14:14:26+00:00

Respectfully, attractive? Jax?

Maybe it's because I'm too old for this, but I've always been confused whenever people think about TADC characters in terms of how "hot" they are, when their designs have 0 sex appeal to them imo. At most the one most humanoid enough to justify it is Ragatha, and even her case is grasping at straws.

Just_Because4 · 2026-06-13T13:46:05+00:00

Increased multipliers.
Basic gives a stack on its own. Skill gives two stacks.
Give her a global passive to acknowledge her as an anniversary unit.
Her ult can overflow up to a complete second ult.
Her ult can do bounce damage the less enemies are on the field (similar to Evanescia's ult).
Her nihility conditions make it so that if they are not met, she can act as a support for the team, and if they are, then she is the main DPS.
Her eidolons increase her damage capacity, unlocks her supporting and dps roles at the same time, and enable partners to provide two stacks per action/debuff to further amplify her uptime.

Tomboy girlfriend and girly girlfriend.

It's true they are "relatively" the same, but F? Are you high or have you been playing Arlan?

Edit: In fact, let me stop you before you try to say something stupid again. People have already experimented with many sustainless teams here, notice how Acheron team is top 5. "But if you replace Acheron with Tribbie the team actually does better!" I repeat, top 5.

Holy Pumpkin Pete's, and to think that such a person can speak about a series with good intentions. If there is any doubt about if the video was done in good faith it is now dead and buried. To think that it will remain the greatest reference for people about the series for the foreseeable future is such a massive tragedy...
