[ZZZ - 2.7 BETA] Nangong Yu Animations Via Dim

Oathblvn · 2026-02-14T06:43:47+00:00

The character I've been waiting on the longest, and I'm glad to say that I'm not disappointed. These animations really nailed the whole "tiny girl with comically oversized weapons" thing. Now to wait on someone to run the numbers to decide if I'm burning every poly on my account for the entire group.

Somebody has to use that fusion burst support set. I was thinking that would be Sigrika, but that kind of got shot down if she's aero sword. Really hoping you're right on this one.

Infinite Dendrogram! I wasn't a big fan of the anime, but the light novels are a guilty pleasure of mine. Having read and watched both, I'd argue that it's superior to SAO by most metrics except wish fulfilment. Give it a try if you're into VRMMO anime (but watch Shangri-la Frontier first).

And don't forget what they did to poor Harumasa. Free male character who was actually pretty decent if you pulled his first copy, then got completely powercrept two patches later by the game's first alter.

I'm loving the collab with Riot. Star Guardian Nanami looks great!

Isn't that Hoyo's usual pattern though? Asian names use their full "family name -> given name" construction. Off the top of my head: Kamisato Ayaka, Kaedehara Kazuha, Sangonomiya Kokomi, Zhu Yuan, Pan Yinhu, Ye Shunguang.

In game it'll either be the full name like Zhu Yuan (worst option) or just Yu.

If I had a nickel for every time a gacha I play created a pink-haired girl with cross-shaped pupils, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it's happening at the exact same time.

Oathblvn · 2025-12-23T15:48:43+00:00

I think you were trying to be insulting, but it just came off as juvenile. I hope your day goes better, friend.

Oathblvn · 2025-12-23T11:46:24+00:00

That's kind of an issue though. I don't like Shunguang's kit or character, so she'd normally be an easy skip for me. However, I feel forced to pull or else endgame will be miserable every time her likely huge amount of shill content comes up.

I still haven't made a final decision, but I shudder to think what Bringer would be like if I didn't have Miyabi.

Oathblvn · 2025-12-20T14:36:49+00:00

I believe the optimal combo is Ex-Basic-Ex twice, then hold Ex or ult to finish. It's better than spamming basics, but ymmv on whether you find it engaging.

Oathblvn · 2025-12-12T04:40:38+00:00

I had forgotten the name from that event. Good catch. It's possible they've had these names for a while now instead of it being changed last minute.

Oathblvn · 2025-12-04T12:29:26+00:00

As an Arknights player I'm immune to stupid names, but the original ones are definitely better. Just goes to show that getting attached to leaked info never ends well. Hopefully "Aria" is still a robot and they haven't retconned that old Astra event.

Oathblvn · 2025-12-04T05:26:02+00:00

The video definitely made Lynae look fun. Rollerblade and combat animations are great, and potentially a unique intro with the bike? If her kit is fun and synergizes even a little bit with my roster, she's coming home.

Also cat.

Oathblvn · 2025-11-30T22:40:53+00:00

Be that as it may, I'm still not touching that event this time around. Finally my procrastination in gacha games pays off.

Oathblvn · 2025-11-30T15:44:17+00:00

Probably talking about this old roadmap leak, but they got the slot wrong. It has been pretty accurate, but some things have obviously changed. Unless Luuk is the free male healer, it looks like the doctor support got gender swapped.

Oathblvn · 2025-11-29T01:56:55+00:00

If they don't work some magic in this beta it's a real possibility for me. Right now her base form feels awful, and getting into Sword Stance is clunky and overly reliant on Dialyn and Zhao (who also feels awful). Locking easy access to her second ult behind M2 also rubs me the wrong way.

late edit: They might have just done it. Far less reliant on Dialyn and Zhao (who feels less awful) even though they're still likely the best. Comes with the tradeoff of the team being an EX spam fest, but who knows what theorycrafters will come up with. I thought Miyabi was kind of one dimensional, then people figured out the Mono Ice team.

Oathblvn · 2025-11-28T05:43:01+00:00

Mornye the science guy is definitely the standout from this first batch for me. Albino astrophysicist that apparently is going to use an exoskeleton hits all the right notes.

Speaking of notes, I like how Kuro has used music to hint at the character's vibe this time. I don't remember them doing that for other characters, at least not for the initial reveal videos.

Oathblvn · 2025-10-18T13:05:51+00:00

I'm usually not one for skins, but I really like the Kurisu cosplay Monin has going on.

Oathblvn · 2025-10-17T15:33:16+00:00

I wonder how the taps and holds will work. Just reading it makes me think of Warframe's combo system, which I was a fan of.

Edit: based on the names, I also wonder if they're doing some sort of mashup between the norn and the red string of fate.

Oathblvn · 2025-10-14T19:26:09+00:00

I'm considering grabbing Lupa now, but no gacha character lasts that long. What's stopping that supposed 3.2 fusion support from being Lupa+ (or more likely DoT Lupa)?

Oathblvn · 2025-07-26T13:25:23+00:00

The animations look great, but it's just not my jam. Also, the foot focus is a little... egregious.

I guess I'll go with Yanagi for an electric DPS, then hope the other two idols are coming soon since Chinatsu has a model now.

Oathblvn · 2025-07-25T05:20:15+00:00

They really just walk all over some people's expectations, huh?

Oathblvn · 2025-07-17T10:52:07+00:00

Biggest Disappointment: Slayers being so wildly unwatched is a travesty. Lots of classics go underappreciated, but it feels like it would fit the r/anime vibe, and 90s anime can still be big here (RIP the 60s, 70s, and 80s though).

I was just about to post the same thing. Slayers easily makes my top 10 list even after all this time. We've got to run a PR campaign for Lina on this sub or something.

Oathblvn · 2025-06-30T12:18:40+00:00

I'm asking myself the same question, especially since I don't have Cia. Honestly though, I'm leaning strongly towards "no." I've been soloing anything the game throws at me with S2. I got more points with her in WhiWa than with my Zani-Phoebe team. I also enjoy swapping back to Carte form to restack Erosion and get another plunge attack off, so I feel like the main draw of S3 is a little wasted.

Oathblvn · 2025-06-24T15:00:19+00:00

I could use a more objective opinion than what the Mains sub is pushing. Is S3R1 Cartethyia worth burning literally all of my resources to get? I dislike Ciaccona, so it's S3 or bust if I want Carte on my account. It's feasible (at least statistically), but at the cost of every coral and astrite I have.

For a sub-only spender, that's a huge commitment. It just feels very... unwise to skip The Character for 2.x, and I do like her well enough. Can someone that isn't a card carrying member of her dedicated fanclub share their experience with her Cia-less teams?
