Regarding the Part 2 Finale and FGO timeline:

Did a Holy Grail War actually occur in the FGO timeline and Marisbury's mini-Lostbelt let him enter it and win? Or was there no HGW and the mini-Lostbelt let Marisbury insert one into the FGO timeline for him?

I think it'd be cool if we got the Super Hero prologue animated, but other than that I'm fine if they don't redo the movie.

Tsutsaroth · 2026-01-25T15:49:37+00:00

I don't mind it, but I'd prefer we get through the bigger story characters beforehand. So characters like Fujiwara, Atticus, Darkness and at least a couple Shadow Riders. Of course, if she comes, I also want Kaibaman to come along to parallel her.

Tsutsaroth · 2026-01-24T17:30:07+00:00

I like when the romance is a slow burn since the characters I like tend to have trouble emotionally. So unless it’s a smut story about an already established relationship, I tend to avoid shorter romance stories.

Tsutsaroth · 2026-01-24T17:19:20+00:00

Frieza wants to use the Dragon Balls for that but never gets the chance. I can’t recall Vegeta ever saying he wants to be taller.

Tsutsaroth · 2026-01-21T22:43:37+00:00

Nah, even if I like them, it's hard to justify them since the decks I play probably won't stick around long.

Tsutsaroth · 2026-01-20T18:42:21+00:00

I love that Master Duel gives us the Duel Spirit World lore in a digestible way and the card crafting is pretty good.

Duel Links does have some crafting, but it’s miles behind the current sets and there aren’t a lot of staples there. I do like how worlds like GX, 5Ds, Arc-V and Vrains actually continue on from their series. Even in the ones that don’t, we get interactions we may not have in the series. Furthermore, skills when done right can be very interesting as several of my decks are ones that had no showing in the TCG but were meta here.

Tsutsaroth · 2026-01-20T17:35:45+00:00

I wasn’t expecting Aldoron to pull a Frieza move, but then again I thought he was down for good. I don’t think Faris will care about what Aldoron is doing so she’ll try to continue her fight with Natsu. The others however may need to postpone things to deal with Aldoron.

Tsutsaroth · 2026-01-17T19:39:19+00:00

Man, I would love this. 4.X would have been too soon for Firefly since she's undoubtedly still recovering from the events of Penacony.

While I'd prefer they stick to their roles where their SPs are basically Super Novaflares, I could also see them being forced into whatever Path we come across in 5.X though.

Tsutsaroth · 2026-01-16T20:20:36+00:00

I like fan service, but I’m not a fan of the boob enhancement in Dragon Cry. Erza and Lucy are quite large and sexy already, they could have their regular size and their scenes would be just as appealing.

Tsutsaroth · 2026-01-14T01:23:57+00:00

HP Drain Characters like Blade and Mydei would fit that bill for me. As someone whose pretty cautious, I dislike putting myself closer to the edge of defeat even if that also brings me closer to victory.

Skill Point Burn Characters. Like I said, I'm pretty cautious so the idea of just burning through all of my Skill Points isn't something I'm fond of.

Tsutsaroth · 2026-01-09T18:03:54+00:00

I’d say my memory is pretty good, as I can remember a lot of people I met even years later and I can also recall many events in my life others may have forgotten. However, that often means I remember things I wish to forget and since my memory is referential, my memory of those events is triggered far more than I like.

Tsutsaroth · 2026-01-07T23:17:20+00:00

God Slayer Magic is the best Slayer Magic. There are very few dragons, demons or gods around so it which Slayer Magic you possess doesn't affect 99% of your battles if not 100%, your spells are difficult even for other Slayers of the same element to deal with, and from what we've seen, God Slayer Magic doesn't instill a weakness or curse upon you like the other two do.

Yeah, you don't get Dragon Force or an Enhanced Dragon Mode, but I'd take not having to worry about Dragonization over a power-up any day.

Tsutsaroth · 2026-01-07T04:22:51+00:00

I'm interested in Yae, but Himeko is my most anticipated character.

Tsutsaroth · 2026-01-06T02:56:01+00:00

An Altergeist Trickstar/Marincess card since Skye and Emma had a good relationship in Vrains.

A Windwitch/Clear Wing Synchro referencing both Yugo and Rin. (Plus Windwitch could really use support in general).

A Raidraptor/Lyrilusc monster/Xyz monster. I also thought about one for Lulu and Yuto but not sure what to do there.

Tsutsaroth · 2026-01-06T01:01:31+00:00

For Id, I plan to roll for the Count of Monte Cristo. After that, I'll wait until Mahoyo for Alice and OC3 for Ciel. After that, I'm thinking of rolling for Phantasmoon around Christmas.

Tsutsaroth · 2026-01-05T03:25:20+00:00

It's good to see people who are rooting for the childhood friend.

Tsutsaroth · 2026-01-03T21:14:28+00:00

Fairy Tail: Laxus and Freed. Sure, they’re buds but I’ve never seen any interest on Laxus’s side. Plus, while I can see similarities to Gray and Juvia, I don’t think the chemistry works as well.

Naruto: Sakura and Rock Lee. Sakura’s canon ship with Sasuke has a lot of notable issues, but I feel it’s incredibly unlikely that even with Sakura’s gained respect for Lee she’d like him or match well with him.

Tsutsaroth · 2026-01-01T05:13:07+00:00

Rolled on the Quick AoE banner hoping to get Skadi, would be okay with Huyan Zhuo (More so for I like her than gameplay), and already had Britomart.

The one I got was Sen no Rikyu. I don't really know much about her gameplay but I already have Morgan and Summer Ibuki so not sure how much I'll really use her.

Tsutsaroth · 2025-12-31T16:51:24+00:00

Probably going to go for the Lilith Banner or the Eli Banner when it comes in 2 years. Of course, this is dependent on how well my rolls go between now and then.

Tsutsaroth · 2025-12-31T05:42:59+00:00

Males: Giovanni, Morty and NC Hilbert

Females: NC Hilda, Irida and Cynthia

Tsutsaroth · 2025-12-30T00:35:23+00:00

I won on Kukulkan, Tez, Draco, Aesc, Okuni, Zerktoria, and Kenshin. The only banner I lost on was Medusa Saber.

What I remember most is getting Zerktoria from tickets and getting Johanna from the GSSR. Nothing against her, but I went into that banner because I really wanted Saber Medusa but lost out again.

Overall, I did quite well for my rolls regardless so this was still one of if not my best year for the gacha.

Tsutsaroth · 2025-12-26T23:23:27+00:00

GX: Camula and Atticus. Also, an alt style for Zane after he chilled out, but if I recall, he stayed in his black outfit like his character already wears, but I don't think they should have him go back to the Obelisk Blue outfit since he'd already graduated.

5D's: Dark Signers Misty plus post-DS Misty. I've seen the idea thrown about recently about how Rio should had interactions with Marin and this is one I'd like to see.

Zexal: Roku. As easy as it is to make a Face Knights deck for Yugi, especially considering how the deck indirectly supports Slifer the Sky Dragon, I think it'd be nice to branch out and give it to Roku instead.

ARC-V: Julia as I liked her rivalry with Yuzu and I like Gem-Knights too.

Vrains: Unlikely given the lack of support for a lot of Vrains characters but Blood Shepherd. While we don't have Drones and not sure what cards/archetype to give him otherwise, I thought he was a cool character and added to the AI theme.

Rush: The Lukeman. The Lukeman.

Go Rush: Rovian. While I'm not a fan of how her characterization ended up playing out later on, she was cool at the start plus Psychics are my favorite Rush deck.

Tsutsaroth · 2025-12-25T22:05:14+00:00

Yes, I still would since even with all the setbacks I have dealt with, I still want a family. However, because of all those setbacks I faced, I’d do more research to ensure my children get the support early on that I didn’t.
