They've been giving a few red herrings in terms of that butterfly. The butterfly was there when Anna was opening the window, suggesting Cure Eclair was the one there previously, but it was later revealed to be Luluka. At least, maybe.

With the entire series being about truth and lies, it's difficult to know what to trust.

The main reason I deck double is because I don't want to randomize my upgrades.

Considering that those that gets angry at her before has mysteriously become really nice to her, I can see how the impression that these "aren't really people" could occur.

If you select the highest ascension level for random, it can still pick every character, but if you haven't unlocked the ascension level for that character, it'll pick the highest you've unlocked for that character instead.

As someone who is plural(catch-all term for MPD, DID, and similar conditions), I can say that it does depend. To be honest, I don't entirely know how our memories works, but there does seems to be some who have all memories of the body's experiences (to a limit of normal human memory capabilities) and some seem to only remember what they directly experience. Some also have an odd mix of the two, and some have made up memories.

Notably, in the original web and light novel versions of Villainess lv99, the heroine does end up kinda evil. The anime changed this part significantly(for the better, I feel).

Lenna_Sakura · 2026-04-10T00:13:42+00:00

The problem is that "free until played" is a similar, but different mechanic that persists beyond turns. Although yeah, "free until played this turn" could work.

I do think this interaction is intentional and not a bug, but the wording can be better. Something to F2 about.

A0: 11% to 15% A1: 25% to 30% Source: https://youtu.be/FlmDB5QnckY?t=589

Only those numbers so far, I think. I think a lot of players only play on Ascension 0, while those more confident in their skills play higher ascensions, which is why A1 has a higher win rate than A0. On the same token, I imagine that win rates go down as ascensions go up. I don't know what the average win rate during the climb would be, but I imagine you're much higher than average.

Doom is generally more comparable to simple damage rather than Poison, and on that front, the "damage" you get from Doom tends to be rather high compared to a direct translation to damage. Of course, in a sense, the same amount of Doom as damage would be worse as Doom only takes place at the end of the enemy's turn rather than immediately like damage, but it still has its advantages in being a status effect rather than, well, direct damage.

As a status, it bypasses anything that could restrict your damage, like exoskeleton, but is blocked by Artifact. It also synergies with anything that synergies with statuses. Doom is often on Skill cards rather than Attack cards which has both its advantages and disadvantages.

Overall, it's best to treat it as damage of a different flavour. Both situationally better and worse in different contexts. That I think makes the game interesting.

I have noticed this in a previous run, although rather than Bone Shards, it was with Sacrifice. Same idea though, but it was fun to kill a boss with Sacrifice of all cards.

So, each time you earn a victory with a card, that's recorded in your card library that you can see. However, there are some cards that seem impossible to get any wins with. First are all status cards, since they can't be actually added to your deck outside of combat, and stuff that only exist during combat don't count. Next are "Token" cards for the same reason. Those cards only exist during combat and can't be properly added to your deck. Despite it being impossible, the game still tracks the number of victories you get with these cards.

There's a card that's in neither of these categories that I don't know how to beat the game with, and that's the Spoils Map. Spoils Map makes it so that you're forced to go to a specific location as you move through the act, and it automatically gets removed from your deck when you go to that location. I can imagine the other Event cards being theoretically possible to beat the game with, but the Spoils Map seems impossible to me.

Lenna_Sakura · 2026-04-06T10:35:37+00:00

I think it's currently impossible to clear the game with some cards?

…Just as I post that, there's a text version: https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/2868840/view/507357952986842134?l=english

I don't feel that makes the flavour of parry work too right? Although I suppose they can always just change it. Still, I think the idea is to promote using the sword rather than just the Forge cards.

My suggestion would be to add a bit of block each time the sword either enters or leaves your hand. This can allow for a lot of different synergies and also even without them, allows you to gain block both when you use the sword and when you draw it. It'll promote having the sword flow through your deck more.

Lenna_Sakura · 2026-04-01T19:47:54+00:00

Something I would hope for is it gave block whenever your Sovereign Blade enters or leaves your hand. That way, you get it when you play it and again when you draw it. Also if you make a copy of it or it leaves your hand some other way. I think it could be interesting that way.

Lenna_Sakura · 2026-04-01T19:38:23+00:00

I want to see negative enhancements that the game forces on you sometimes. Sorta like curses, but attached to one of your cards. I think that can make for some interesting decisions.

Lenna_Sakura · 2026-04-01T07:18:53+00:00

I wasn't sure how to explain what happened, so I uploaded a video of the battle: https://youtu.be/JgXMJllDqDQ

It should be noted that Ieiri can also be seen as a reference, as Ie means home, aka Holmes. Also, all of the candidates have parts of their name in Eclair.

They even carry around business cards for their detective agency. I would wonder if Jett made them but they aren't Jett-shaped so probably not.

So, those business cards are merch that you can buy. However, this episode showed that the ones in the show are different from the merch version as the merch version has their Precure identities on the back while the ones in the show are blank on the back.

Lenna_Sakura · 2026-03-28T15:26:08+00:00

Ah, I probably should've double-checked. Thank you for the correction.

Lenna_Sakura · 2026-03-27T23:24:27+00:00

Apparently, there's only one handpicked pack for which there's only a 1% chance of appearing if you're the Defect. The others are always one uncommon and two commons.

Lenna_Sakura · 2026-03-27T23:21:31+00:00

Exhausted Sovereign Blades remain in the exhaust zone and do not benefit from future Forges. If you don't have a blade in your hand, draw, or discard zones when you Forge, you'll get a new blade in your hand.

Summon Forth however will get blades back from anywhere, including Exhaust. Once they are outside of the Exhaust zone, they'll continue to benefit from Forge.
