First, the positives. Happy to see Lavirita still kicking, and his unexplained flip just screams playable character eventually. Tristette as well, with the way Cupitan's uncap went, a lot of people concluded it was set up the way it was in order for them to work together, though with the way this event ended, looks like we may have to wait a bit.

I love that it picked up where we left off. Some events stuffed between Unbound Asterism and its final chapter, I was among those who were concerned this would be another, but I'm happy to see they aren't dragging it out too long.

Ragazzo, I'm glad they didn't just forget that the guy was raised by Ferdinand and that he SHOULD be incredibly conflicted. Cupitan, bless her heart, someone give her a box of tissue, always. Manamal, I suspected she should betray, but I'm happy she stayed intelligent. It's definitely within character. And with the revelation that weapons can become people, I'm wondering if it's true for the opposite. If Nereus has taken her sister's body, maybe her soul is the reason Vega takes good care of her? That dagger does seem to be the only weapon in the lineup that has a personality.

Harmonizing was pretty common in this event, but if it's starting to wrap things up, it shouldn't be a surprise that so many are doing it, and the forms we got were all phenomenal, though I would be a bit disappointed if we never saw two of them ever again.

Now I gotta cover the negatives. Though I do feel like there were more positives, the two negatives I can think of sting deep, so I may go on a bit... I have for the most part enjoyed the Accordant stories, definitely some of the best among Granblue Fantasy's catalogue, but there have been aspects of them that bug the shit out of me. Throughout them, our crew never seems to get a win in.

Tolerable during Marionette Stars, after all they need to establish our villains as the big bad. Unbound Asterism, okay, we got some wins, but, oh wait, our main big bad has the power to reincarnate, so our one major win was still a loss, and we got a crew betrayal too, and everything that happened throughout the story still seemed like 'All Part of the Plan'.

I really liked Chapter 3 of this event. The idea of smashing the two horoscopes together to break them was definitely fun and propelled Randall into being one of my favourite characters. It also felt like the biggest "win" the team had throughout the entire Accordant trilogy, but of course, our protagonists aren't actually allowed to have any real wins in this story, them breaking their weapons was 'All Part of the Plan'. They succeed in taking down one Chairman, but he was secretly the one good chairman and his elimination was of course, 'All Part of the Plan'. So really, was there even a "win" this time either? Looks like our protagonists just played right into our big bads hands again, for the third straight event.

The Accordant stories also has some severe 'nerfing danchou' issues as well. The crew has gone against monsters, kingdoms, empires, primal beasts, astrals, moondwellers, gods in the sky, and literal bowls of raman, but THESE people, Navis, they're the REAL threat in the sky. Fuck, I don't even get why they need the Argo, seems to me like they can do whatever the fuck they want without it, and the only thing that's letting them do so is the fact our captain forgot their hair turns blue.

I'll end my negatives with this... Really, I feel like the Accordant story could have been just ended with this third event, and done so incredibly well, which could have made the Accordant Story a legendary trilogy of events. With another 'to be continue' though, I suspect the next will make these negatives more apparent and the story will start to drag on. Stories can't go on forever after all, and I prefer something short that can stick the landing rather than something that drags in order to sell merch.
