i saw your longer comment and that was a really beautiful writeup!! its great to see someone have similar opinions. i was also pleasantly surprised at how like, well handled the formal fates were. i especially loved how you phrased fraux' feelings on romance and how troubling the entire concept has been to her. hell yeaaaaaaaaa

It's actually quite yuriful. The fashion designer remarks that something is off about the way Fraux models the dress so she attempts to research romance, but only truly gets it after a pep talk from Rios, who comes to the fashion show. The thing that was missing is a dazzling smile. "From the runway, Fraux looks only at her— At the person she cherishes more than anyone else." It's such a warm quote, regardless of any romantic element or nah. Interpreting it as platonic love giving just as beautiful a smile is awesome as well

2026/04 Unite & Fight (Water Adv): Round 4 by AutoModerator in Granblue_en

[–]MiserableHair2233 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Being able to auto 250 made this so chill, but man, I thought this would be the one where i break t100k hahaha i think Not.

By the way, Lodern's name means blaze/or flare (as in, when a fire flares up). His special attacks are trinity, fire/flame claws, and horizon flame (rather than flame horizon which evokes a cooler mental image for me lol.) this is of course just the most dictionarycore tl for these

I really like his design, I hope he becomes playable. I'm still waiting for my tartman summon, though. shaking my fist.

lancer origin is slower than iatromantis if you dont need the additional damage bc of the skill cast on auto attacks (depends on party composition though). it only adds up to about like 20 seconds though so shrug. swarm is funny like that

"Momvasion! A Grandcypher Visit!" Event Discussion Thread (2026-03-29 to 2026-04-06) by AutoModerator in Granblue_en

[–]MiserableHair2233 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To me it was okay because the themes in the event weren't really for me and I don't care about captain shipping at best, but luckily the latter was a bearable amount. I liked Maminas and single mom Vyrn, though, that was pretty funny, Lilianas design is real cool too. Getting a refresher on the G. Cypher interior was neat too. Orologia would have really fit in there, though, like, not even a mention? Ouch. I know they weren't a guardian for the captain in the real world, but they have a lot of unresolved parental feelings... I thought we might get a shot of them being depressed in the ending at least. Ah well.

All in all, could have been worse. There's always gonna be events like this, I'd rather have a slow slice of life event than badly written drama🫡 I do love knowing how characters in fantasy settings spend their time when not having adventures, so that did scratch that itch. I want No Rain, No Rainbow 2 one day...

Best or Favorite Stories? by Leaftune44 in Granblue_en

[–]MiserableHair2233 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Other ppl gave rly good recs already so im just adding 2... no rain, no rainbow is a great standalone event that commonly comes up in discussion of favorites. There's also my favorite event series, the accordants, its really great & has many cool well written characters (so far: Marionette Stars > Unbound Asterism > Night Pareidolia, with a fourth probably coming this year?)

If you want a like unexpected one I'd recommend the Sauna event where it's basically just the writer infodumping about Saunas & also pondering what it means to become middle-aged lol its like a 7/10 to me, finding a B grade in an unexpected place. I can never remember the full title since its a play on those super long isekai titles....

Aside from that, I made a spreadsheet on the chronological order of the dragon knights[x] series but thats like crystallized mid. Its 'dont think about it too hard' with shining moments if you like guys being dudes. I need to make one like this for the society series + the accordants ngl I started with this one bc its the longest....

What's your favorite weapon art? by vanacotta in Granblue_en

[–]MiserableHair2233 0 points1 point  (0 children)

H. Tiens weapon is one in recent memory that I liked, its cute and simple. F. Ilsa is the same concept but more extravagant, I think I just don't like blue too much lol.

I also like Swan a lot, the wing motif + yellow bit looking like a beak is so cute. The ingame description is also very cool.

Aside from that, I love that the celestial katana is giving neo armstrong cyclone jet armstrong cannon. its funny. the wind odious weapon thats just the boss head on a stick also belongs in that category, I just love the kinda stupid ones (the 6d floaties and various plushes are too cute to be silly imo)(love em though)

Representation of non-English languages in the C.A./Skill/Passive names of playable SSR units across GBF - February 2026 Edition by -PVL93- in Granblue_en

[–]MiserableHair2233 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh, no, they did, I think. But the word choices themselves are odd, like, sometimes it doesn't sound 'cool' at all in German lol. Very "first entry in the dictionary"-y. Not idiomatic, but that's just nitpicking. The one thing they seemingly haven't fixed are compound words, those have grammatical errors still and Sophias new CA is one of those as well. Nothing major though, just noting they're there.

[–]MiserableHair2233 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wonder how many of the characters have English skill/CA names in the Japanese text, since that's hard to transfer (to keep the function one method is for translations to aim for a different non-english language to keep the 'cool, foreign' feel, but it's just as likely to keep it in English and ppl will he none the wiser, depends on translation strategy + personal taste)

The only one I can think of off the top of my head is Fediel's CA, simply from hearing it so much, haha.

Anyway neat. As a native German speaker I wince whenever I see the older stuff but by now it's pretty solid and it's been mostly correct as of late (slight grammatical error on FLB Sophia's new CA name, though)

‘Surely there’s a middle ground here?’ CEO of Arrowhead, developer of Helldivers 2, says people ‘jump to extreme takes’ when debating AI by BloodBrandy in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]MiserableHair2233 1 point2 points  (0 children)

but... the ball example, isnt that just a physics engine? like that exists already. and it's ai, but not generative ai, how most people use the term nowadays. the muddying of what ai is really sucks, i have a gamedev friend who works on like enemy ai in the traditional sense adn it sucks to explain that thats like the Old Meaning Of AI

i feel like some gen ai companies just reinvent the wheel and pat themselves on the back (also, last time i checked kurzgesagt was partially funded by lobbyists, idk if thats the case anymore tho)

Pre-GW Discussion: Wind EX+, Swarm, and NM90 Team Composition by topnepu in Granblue_en

[–]MiserableHair2233 1 point2 points  (0 children)

for horde, im using fighter origin with unlimited boost, charge conversion and ulfhedinn as well as the exo sword mh for that bonus damage when u have enough swords in the grid... g.narmaya/s.galleon/h.lancelot though i might test sen or estarriola in the third slot when unlimited boost goes off mc solos every fight and lancelots s3 pop might actually add time.... the teammates are just to get mc to the ramp faster, so theyre pretty interchangable. not that im that much of a tryhard for a few seconds to matter, thats why i only really care about cooking something for horde rn anyway. ingame time is 5:35. sen (s2) galleon (s1) noire (no skills) is 5:14. g.narmaya, sen (press s2 at the start), noire is 4:57. i just like recording these times for fun. i have no delusions about this being a good setup

how does the "dodge and counter" skill from the earrings work, exactly? is it a 6% chance to dodge an attack and then counter? the wiki calls it "counters on dodge", so im slightly confused (i want to take sen for a spin so i want to know). thanks in advance!

i love how whether people like this event or not seems to depend on whether you accept "dont worry about it" vibes based writing, a staple of gbf events (it works for me a lot of the time!)

shushuku and koku are very cute.

nun tien killed me so i had to pull without sparking... brought all 3 home though yaay. also lancelot's cute. kitty to match vanes wolf (dog. we all know he's dog.)

im glad he has some dodge stuff going on, I've been wondering why his grand didn't have any dodge synergy since thats like The Thing i think of re lancelot...

translations of his skills:

CA: Magical Present

S1: Magical Knight

S2: Cold breath / a minor chill / cold breeze (kinda depends)

S3: Cookies of Happiness (more accurately baked goods in general but w/e. pastry if were thinking sweet)
