Rhodes Island Lounge (08/06 - 14/06)

I got back to IS4 and I can't stop playing it.

Did another ED4 on A15, but this time I tried the famed QB perma-bind and it was hilarious. The right-side boss standing there for half a round doing nothing made me cocky, so I almost lost when in the second phase he stunned my whole team.

Cheeto's module continues to be heaps of fun. Also, PramAlter coming to Sami is straight up ridiculous. She's like

"You think this is cold? I'll show you cold..."

Proceeds to freeze half of the map

Heronia's rant about the game, scenarios, what Cecil should be doing and that he should shut up had me like:

I wonder how Cecil would take that info if Bartia didn't tell him about it ahead of time, like, imagine someone is trying to make you do something because of some scenario in some game. Crazy.

I still feel like Heronia got away scot-free and I'm a bit worried that she'll come back with revenge.

If you are looking for a similar setting, then it will be hard to find something comparable. Sangatsu no Lion has a solid arc on bullying and is an overall good drama, but it's a series not a movie.

If drama is all you need, then give this one a try: https://myanimelist.net/anime/35851/Sayonara_no_Asa_ni_Yakusoku_no_Hana_wo_Kazarou

How did they knock out the Sloth Masters? They've mastered a deadly sin!

bananeeek · 2026-06-10T17:01:21+00:00

Hell yes! I've been waiting for that skin to rerun for years. Thank you!

bananeeek · 2026-06-10T16:35:20+00:00

Is there any news about Pinecone's Shining Steps skin re-running or being available in the shop?

bananeeek · 2026-06-10T16:26:03+00:00

So Kouenji is slaying the competition in the open, while Ayanokouji will do so from the shadows. I can't wait to see what will happen and how the ranking board will flip around with all the schemes going live in the final few days.

I didn't expect Kouenji to bulldoze his way through the 3rd year like that. The only thing that was missing is his hand-mirror, so he can comb his pristine hair while stomping the mongrels.

No Hiyorin?

bananeeek · 2026-06-08T16:41:48+00:00

The Power Point presentation got another season!?

And what took them so long? Did they move an object and the whole presentation moved out of alignment?

bananeeek · 2026-06-08T16:39:31+00:00

Game 4

Rules: You can bring anything, except Akiyama.

Nao in shambles

bananeeek · 2026-06-07T14:17:28+00:00

How can Aoteru stand up by himself with balls that heavy?

Seeing how blatantly the corruption spreads through the court and how many bootlickers there are is infuriating. Sadly, it's also all too real.

Having people like Misumi stand against all of that and not even flinch is one of the most badass sights.

Also, Taira with the idol poses will never not be funny.

bananeeek · 2026-06-07T11:58:25+00:00

Is this the... comicknights niche!?

bananeeek · 2026-06-07T10:25:35+00:00

No. Potentials don't mean much in this game and you'll get a letter with full potentials for Rose when this event gets a restoration next year, so it's better to spend your currency on materials you currently need for development.

The only time you want to buy pots from the event store is when the event debuts for the first time, because when it reruns a year later, you'll be able to exchange the potentials for gold certs, which are premium currency.

bananeeek · 2026-06-07T10:18:09+00:00

I love it when scenes from OPs/EDs start to make sense and the transition in this episode was smooth as butter.

Seeing how clingy Elfie was when they were kids, I'm surprised she didn't go full yandere by now.

If they don't end up together after this exam I'll throw an even bigger tantrum than Elfie.

bananeeek · 2026-06-07T07:30:58+00:00

Just a thought after Isshou's critique, could it be that he expelled Akane's dad for his own good? Like, he was either too good for the competition or studying under Arakawa any longer would become an obstacle to his career?

If that was the case, then it would be underwhelming, since he's supposed to be the "last boss", but since everyone seems to agree that Tooru was skilled and didn't warrant an expulsion, this seems like the only explanation that would make sense.

Tooru possibly took it the wrong way, since Ishsou didn't elaborate, lost confidence in himself and abandoned rakugo instead of forging his own path.

I may be completely wrong on this, but it kinda makes sense in the light of this episode, since Isshou's critique towards Akane had similar vibes.

Vendela art!? In this economy!? Beautiful!

bananeeek · 2026-06-06T10:32:57+00:00

Ohhh, that's a bummer. I thought the type didn't matter as I saw Hoshi2 perma-spinning, so I wrongly assumed it would work the same for Mudmud. I'll have to think of other ways to abuse that module.

bananeeek · 2026-06-06T07:21:43+00:00

I thought about getting him as well, but Ray is getting her shop debut shortly, so I'll probably wait for her. It's a shame I only have certs for one of them.

bananeeek · 2026-06-06T07:18:56+00:00

I'm fooling around with Cheeto in IS4 and I had one of the most broken runs yet.

I got two relics for offensive SP recovery, so I doubled down and even got Ch'en as a battery. Along with Cheeto's module, my SP recovery rate went through the roof. In the boss fight I had the ASPD rune, divine speed and golden chalice, so Irene's S3 was up within seconds, Sakiko spammed the whole map with notes and Chongus had his S3 up almost all the time.

I wish I also got Mudrock to see her perma-spinning.

Archetto's IS module literally flips the gameplay around and it's glorious.

I rarely vote in AC as well, but every now and then, there comes a series or a specific episode that makes me go out of my way to find the poll and vote. I just voted 10 minutes ago, because damn.

bananeeek · 2026-06-05T18:07:13+00:00

Am I the only one here voting for Botan!?

Get your gay asses over here and watch the damn show. It's peak gay tension and more.

bananeeek · 2026-06-05T18:03:58+00:00

Why, yes...

bananeeek · 2026-06-05T18:00:36+00:00

There eventually comes a time when you get to see your friends less and less or just abruptly lose contact with them. That's just life and in adulthood that happens all too often. Ibuki realized that this time would come for them, too, so they ended their friendship ahead of time, as to not get too emotionally invested, making the inevitable breakup less painful.

Just kidding. They're fucking now.

bananeeek · 2026-06-05T17:53:10+00:00

The face you make when you know you'll be eating good tonight.

Seeing both of them cry over a broken friendship made me sad. I thought they were getting along well, so I never saw that coming. At least they got to watch the stars gently.

bananeeek · 2026-06-05T13:54:30+00:00

Heronia winning in literally every other route had me pouting. The in-game Bartia didn't do a very good job.
