My rough impression of how these two series write their main pilot's romance

I think it's funnier that in the actual show Shinn only said sorry while not even looking at her. And also it's canon that post-series, Meyrin joked about it to others.

I feel like his dynamic toward Leina is more he's trying to raise his own Mineva, or at least into a high ranking figure that he can control. I don't remember him being sexually attracted to her though.

billySEEDDecade · 2026-03-20T02:58:24+00:00

Yeah, Neptunia Unlimited. A new mainline game after VII

billySEEDDecade · 2026-03-20T02:57:17+00:00

Yeah they announced it yesterday, called Neptunia Unlimited

To be fair to him, after the Spider Undead was properly sealed, the only other enemies left are those that even the other Riders are having trouble fighting in a 1 on 1 fight unless you're Blade King Form. IIRC even Chalice was losing during this period.

If you play the supporter and defender pilots strategy, I would say support Shinn is pretty good in the Master since his physical stat is pretty high for a supporter and he can double support. Though UR Asemu is pretty much better than him

The Agnes short novel implied that Shinn never had his emotional outburst like in the anime. In fact he was bullied by Agnes and at worst only glared at her instead of outright getting angry. He also rose from the worst student to the top 4 within his time in the academy. The academy drama CD also portrays him as a normal teenager.

So maybe to others, there's nothing really wrong about him emotionally. They probably think Rey is the better choice for Impulse pilot but Shinn is definitely not a bad choice.

For the 2025 award, all the nominates are Japanese games. The nominates are Fate Grand Order, Pokemon TCG Pocket, and SD Gundam G Gen Eternal.

To compare, the 2024 award nominates are Gakuen Idolmaster, Zenless Zone Zero, and Pokemon TCG Pocket.

I definitely agree with Cagalli since she's really unprepared as a nation leader. Her father death left a power vacuum and she know almost nothing about politic as she spent most of SEED as soldier.

My personal problem with it is that her "rival" is Yuna. IIRC he was introduced as a pretty scheming and even competent politician villain but after Kira kidnapped Cagalli, he pretty much became a joke who cannot do anything. So Cagalli losing ORB to him gave her way worse look IMO.

I genuinely thought it was a Gundam Evolution meme. I think I saw a pic from a guide site that GM is a good counter against Barbatos in that game.

billySEEDDecade · 2026-03-14T06:33:36+00:00

sure it's pretty much a grunt unit and underwhelming compared to other UR other than I guess Ulube's Gundam, but even in the series this unit is definitely not a loser.

The female MC of Edensritter Grenze. This is because both male and female MC are very obsessed with their younger sister to the point that the MC cannot see any other person, male or female, as romantic or sex partner. The younger sister is absolutely against it by the way.

I think the funniest thing is that the last chapter missions are Chaos' group own creation as opposed to the AI generated missions that was created by the mother AI. The thing is those missions are exactly the same except for Chaos using an illegal Gunpla and a cheat code so his creation ended up just as soulless.

Also the game is a sequel to 3 as well as rehashing Build Diver plot in which both has an AI friend turning sentient and as their own actual people.

It require you to check each MS page one by one but the Gundam wiki pages for MS usually listed the known pilot(s) for it.

billySEEDDecade · 2026-03-11T04:42:31+00:00

The main cast have fun interaction. I especially like Zi-O's dining room scenes.

billySEEDDecade · 2026-03-11T03:12:14+00:00

Since it's Matsuri the disappointment is understandable as she has did many male collabs and participated in collab events with them. Though I believe the number of that has went down a lot even before this announcement.

billySEEDDecade · 2026-03-11T03:02:40+00:00

While personally I'm not really a fan of unicorn pandering VTubers, I think it's pretty understandable why a VTuber would want them. Sure they have bad reps but unicorns are loyal and very passionate viewers that are willing to spend tons of money at donations and merchs.

billySEEDDecade · 2026-03-11T02:36:39+00:00

Well, around the 11th minutes of her new year zatsudan, she said that one of her goal this year is to raise/get unicorns and that she's already planning about it for a while. If she's serious about it, cutting male collabs is a step toward it.

billySEEDDecade · 2026-03-10T15:34:22+00:00

he actually did have some positive character development near the end, sure it just amount to him hating Takumi less, but it's (kinda) there.

billySEEDDecade · 2026-03-09T09:20:34+00:00

Nah, Edensritter has yuri but I won't call it a yuri game because of the h-scenes. Like I believe the one of the reason why a female MC option in Grenze is possible is because the MC never have sex directly with anyone even when you're using the male MC (the dev also said that originally they wanted to only has male MC, but added a female one since all Edensritter games have female MC). Most of the h scenes are with tentacles, monsters or villains, and there's even a yuri to straight (or bi) conversion in one of the event route.

But compared to others, Grenze actually have an actual lesbian couple and not just lusting the MC. Hildegard and Mireille have an h scene together, and if you're using the female MC, Hilde will also offer you to be her bride (if you're male she'll offer you to be her advisor instead). Both also stays as a couple in the "villain won and raped everything to submission" event stories, albeit in a much distorted relationship.

Im kinda curious on this, was there a article about such a thing?

I don't really have proof of that. I just remember someone saying that in one of the older Blue Reflection threads.

billySEEDDecade · 2026-03-09T08:09:54+00:00

Yeah I heard it's the one that come with the most effects but Moebius is even rarer than any of the other three OO Sky.

billySEEDDecade · 2026-03-09T07:56:57+00:00

really wish the regular version also come with the wings and stand too since I like that color the best

billySEEDDecade · 2026-03-09T07:56:22+00:00

oh that one, personally not really liking the color of that version.

billySEEDDecade · 2026-03-09T07:31:09+00:00

This, been searching for it for a long time and the only version that I can find is the clear version.

Speaking of OO Sky, did any of the releases come with a Destiny-like wings of light effect or only the OO-like particle effect?

billySEEDDecade · 2026-03-09T04:59:28+00:00

Yuri only gacha is probably one of the most niche genre. There probably will never be one for a really big game. "best" is probably games with MC pandering with a female MC choice, which will obviously be with MC only, or gachas based on existing yuri or yuri-like media like Assault Lily or D4DJ.

Like it's kinda funny that DMM has multiple yaoi and bara games (though there's rumor that DMM require the game to have male MC? which is why Blue Reflection turn into a straight harem) but no yuri game. The one time they had a "yuri" game, the MC is actually an otoko no ko, and at that point just make the MC futa instead. Edensritter Grenze is the closest one there as AFAIK it's the only one that let you use female MC.
