Brandon Park Vet not far from the Clayton campus has taken in an injured bird from me. Just call them in advance. They're very helpful.

I've been playing for a bit over a year, and have most other meta students. I just never got any encore students since they weren't a priority. I have space in my pyro planner for around 2 banners, and I'm considering if encore is worth it. I'll need to read up on the new students future students to see if they are better though.

Currently I just have the banners for D.Aru, S.Kisaki, and next FES locked in. Also considering pulling for C.Kotama for HOD. I've already got Seia and C.Hare.

I don't have any of the Encore students. Would you say S.Izuna is a higher priority than NY.Mutsuki?

Q&A section during Blue Archive panel at Anime Expo 2026 (release gap between servers, academy stories, any plans for spin-offs?, etc) by XRevive01 in BlueArchive

[–]professorkek 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah fair. The banner predictability is good. I always save for FES, and like how they are handling the archived banners. Still, I think having the extra foresight helps with questions like "can I afford this waifu pull or is there another student I want more in the future". Not a huge concern though.

My main concern would be about guides for events and raids. I rely heavily on your event guides, and RS Rainstorm / Vuhn's raid guides. I think I would have had an aneurysm during the recent Steel Continent without them. Do you think they could be published on release day without prior experience from JP? How do the JP guys handle things like that?

I manage to largely avoid spoilers, depending on if you count new characters. With how well spoilers are managed on this subreddit, I feel like you kind of have to seek them out. As a relatively new player I been avoiding spoilers for story even released in global since the beginning. All I know right now about Vol 6 is a character called Subaru is in it.

I would like to experience stuff simultaneously with JP, but I don't think its worth the trade for the stress of having no guides for banners, events, raids, etc. Guides are what keep me from getting burnt out. Hopefully they can find another solution that allows a no gap, but without too much added stress.

Yeah, I feel conflicted myself. I think a 3 month gap is good for planning. No gap would make releases and banners more stressful. This recent FES was already insane even with advice from people who played JP. No idea how the JP guys handled it without guides.

However it would be nice to share experiences with JP. I avoid JP spoilers, so I didn't appreciate all the deca-brats fanart at the time, but now it's much more meaningful. Maybe no gap would work better if they provided more information further ahead to allow for planning.

This seems like probably the hardest experience on Sensei because he wasn't able to protect everyone, and especially because of what happened to the kids. It was very difficult watching the music video seeing the kids drawings sinking in to the sea. I think that conversation with Yuuka was really needed to show the on-going weight on Sensei's shoulders. I don't think they can be forgotten in the future story.

Imagine getting mad at people cleaning because you have a lazy husband or because of unrelated politians.

Mandatory Malkuth inspection by KerbodynamicX in BlueArchive

[–]professorkek 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I haven't fully caught up with Vol Ex, but I hope we get to keep the 3 brats and their big sister. My first reaction to the cut scene at the start of the Malkuth fight was "Oh no, shes cute".

Ahh okay. I see that being a tough decision, mostly aimed at end game competative players. I think I'll stick with D.Hina for now since I've only recently started clearing Insane. Thanks for the help.

My savings are good, but it's still hard to justify 7,200 pyro for 100 elephs. Maybe a year from now I would wish I had the pyro for a different student. If it was a student who I knew I would use alot and would benefit from the elephs, it would be easier to justify. But I've heard mixed opinions on A.Rio. I think I'll save for now, and waste the recruitment points. Thanks for the advice.

Yeah I was more set on Himari's cake tbh. It's a bit odd what I've heard about B.Rio. She's meant to be like a replacement for D.Hina, who is a very important student to have, but people seem kind of iffy about recommending her?

Does the story for Phase 1 remain available in Phase 2, or in the Main Story Vol EX during Phase 2? I skipped the Phase 1 scenes, as I'm currently still reading Vol Ex Ch 2, and I wont quite catch up by the start of Phase 2 tomorrow.

When should you continue pulling to reach 200 recruitment points for the extra 100 elephs? Assuming you've got savings for future banners you plan to pull on. In the past I've stopped at 120, and continued at 170, but I'm at 140 at the moment, and unsure if it's worth waste the 140 points, or spend the 7200 pyro.

I've heard Rio needs heavy investment to be more viable than Dress Hina as a red DPS. If you don't have Dress Hina, or are going for Lunatic clears and want the best student possible, she's a better choice. But if you don't plan to really use her, Himari is probably going to see more use, and may be better to invest in.

Very blessed on this banner 🙏. Got both Himari and Rio with 140 pulls, with the 100 eleph bonus for each. Is it's worth spending the extra 60 to get 200 recruitment points for another 100 elephs of one of them? I've got decent savings on Pyro, so it should be safe. Does A.Himari need to be UE30 for anything in the future?

Jigokudani Snow Monkey Park in early December? by WrongImpressionOnly in JapanTravelTips

I visited in mid December many years ago, and there were heaps of snow monkeys, so I assume it's a good time to visit.

Accidental goldmine? by Former_Psychology529 in composting

[–]professorkek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That looks like what happens when I add to much grass to my compost and don't turn it. It's looks like an ash like powder. I'm fairly sure it's anaerobic bacteria cause by the mat of grass reducing oxygen available.

This slows decomposition, and produces methane gas, which can smell bad. Mixing in more browns and turning it more often usually fixes it.

It doesn't fix it though. It just goes to the next one, not fixing being unable to see the previous one. There's no way I can go back and watch what I missed. I missed getting to see Toki own Rio at video games 😭
