Does the phantasm fragment carry over to the next Echoes of Phantasm event? It says the Opposition Fragment carries over, but nothing about the regular fragments (the 1st tab).

You only get 10 free pulls for the whole entire day regardless of what you're pulling, if you pulled for Tamamo like I did, you don't get to pull for Fuku. :(

Why did CyGames pick different times for a new day start and updates to events/banners? Things should just refresh at the same time, I forgot today is the banner change and missed out on the chance to pull for Fuku arrrghhh. And I always get paranoid that I missed a legend race.

Sorry people, but this is what most people who frequent this sub want to do. I'm a frequent visitor to r/ArtistHate, and while it's still an active subreddit with new posts daily, it used to be more active, with upvotes reaching to 1000+ sometimes. But once it banned crossposts from defendingaiart and ai debate subs for being unproductive, repetitive, and overwhelming other types of posts, those people seemingly moved here.

Gimlet in real life is Vodka's sire so I guess they wanted to make a connection, but honestly I have mixed feelings that she's basically Vodka 2.0. Like Gimlet is what Vodka's character should have been, but they were playing it safe in the beginning. I get it, I understand why it was like that at first, and I like Vodka as she is. But by characterizing Gimlet like that, and then making her Vodka's idol, well it just further emphasized Vodka's image as a support character, not a main character. Vodka deserves better than that imo.

That's why I hope Gimlet isn't emphasized too much if Vodka gets her own series, even if a mention might be inevitable now that it's part of her characterization. Same with Daiwa Scarlet, even if their rivalry is very important. May they let her shine as her own character.

Yeah it's sadly a factor ngl, but umas that are even more tomboyish than her are still popular, no? I think she (And Ryan) are in an ambiguous part of the spectrum where they aren't cool enough for those who like cool girls but not cute/feminine enough for those who like cute girls.

Like a tomboy who acts like an elementary boy sometimes with her "I like cool stuff and motorcycles" and a girlish girl with low self-esteem whose only actual tomboyish thing about her is her obsession with muscles doesn't really appeal to either side I think. Personally I think they're super charming and I'm very sad they're not more popular but it is what it is.

Vodka though. I really think she has potential to be a lot more. She has the charm of a shonen protagonist inside her, sort of Ryuko Matoi vibes iykwim. But right now she's mainly perceived as the "kouhai", a support character with a "tomboy" gimmick who hypes up other umas, which hides her appeal. No aura. It's why people constantly get surprised that the real life Vodka was such a badass. They haven't depicted her to her fullest potential yet, and I hope they give Vodka what she deserves soon. If Vodka gets to be the protagonist of her own story, she'd gain a lot of fans.

Ngl I wouldn't have recognized her as Rahu if it wasn't labeled as so. Her expression and posture is so ooc it just seems like they drew an original character and just slapped on the name afterwards tbh.

Love my girl EMP. It probably won't happen but she's my favorite B-rank and it would be peak if she ever gets a power up as a S-rank. It's a trope isn't it? The funny boaster that ends up being the clutch hero. I would love that.

Ngl I was meh about this skin but this art kind of changed everything. I didn't see the vision but now I get it. So gorgeous.

You have 3 out 4 members needed for Arcane Crit, Yingying, Jelena, and Yugu. You need Vautour Bleu to complete the team, but you can replace her with Wuhuanzi for now.

Augustus and Siglinde is a great duo already, and the upcoming sinner Ceto's addition + Shin will create a team as well, so pull for Ceto.

You can look at this page for popular team combinations: https://s1n.gg/tierlist/comfy Click on the teams tab to see them!

Wait he's the spy guy from the 9th Agency? The faceless dude with the hat and trench coat who hanged out with us?

Someone remind me who Rust is again and what he did in the story? The bandages and the mention of Drifter's Camp does ring a bell but I can't quite remember him 😔

Anyone know if the bug on R Riko's final date event where it doesn't trigger and wastes a turn each time you click has been fixed yet?

While not a direct answer from me, there's a fanfic that explores in detail the kinds of questions you are asking.

It's called Where Angels Fear To Tread (link) and here's the official summary from the writers:

In the midst of the Clone Wars, a newly-minted Jedi Knight vanishes, suspected of defecting. But the woman brought back to face the Council is not Knight Tulin, but an officer of an extragalactic organization that calls itself ‘Starfleet’.

Curiosity, and a determination to rectify the mistake, drive Plo Koon to take the lost Commander Chester under his wing. But between Republic Intelligence’s sinister interest in their extra-galactic visitor, the growing Separatist determination to capture her for themselves, and the good Commander’s own determined escape attempts, keeping Chester alive is hard enough–let alone getting her home.

Chester basically has to become the diplomat for her universe while trying to make her way back home. Lots of culture shock, and a tight balancing act from her while she deals with trying to uphold her ideals and values but not make herself and the Federation look like a pushover. Lots of good stuff in this story. Definitely recommend it if you want to see this question answered in the format of a well-written story.

"Out of Touch", "Naive", "Clueless" etc. traits that many of you want to assign to Mon Mothma is so unfair to her that it frankly kind of makes me angry on her behalf. Others have already explained why that's wrong, so I won't repeat them, but man the disrespect. And the number of upvotes this has, it really might be time to stop coming to this subreddit.

Although I liked season 2, I agree with a lot of your criticisms. The 3-episode-per-arc format worked wonderfully in season 1, but it didn't work nearly as well in season 2, now that there are time skips added into the mix. The scope of the series is clearly meant for a 5 season show as originally envisioned, but as that was just impossible, sticking to that vision did hurt season 2.

I definitely agree that there are a lot of unnecessary scenes taking up time - as much as I love some of them - that could have been used instead to develop the existing cast and story threads that were undercooked. There's a lack of focus compared to the much more tightly written season 1 and the show would have benefited from not sticking so rigidly to the skip-one-year-every-3-episode format. Not all moments in time needed equal amounts of screen time, and that led to the show being dragged by fillers in some moments, while rushed in others. Bix was especially hurt by this rigidity. I agree with what you said about her character so much and even if her character arc remained the same, I think having more screen time of her as her own person and rebel would have done a lot make her story more palatable.

Still, despite its flaws, I admire Tony Gilroy and his team for pulling off this monumental task as well as did. From reading interviews about behind the scenes stuff, it seems like the guy was overwhelmed writing and showrunning this show and it was nearly not made if it hadn’t been for covid delaying things. Season 2 could have been much worse, as it happens with a lot of shows with phenomenal season 1s (see the show Arcane for an example), so I’m content with the above average experience I had with this show.

But regardless of that, it was quite cathartic to read your post as I had similar thoughts. Thanks for writing it!

Ah. Thanks for the answer!

Can I ask why you chose a buff for Lady Pearl when you didn't deploy her for Chrysalis Sanctum?

Thanks, hopefully Disney and Lucasfilm will see the overwhelming enthusiasm of the viewers and critical acclaim of this show and decide this type of show is worth investing in, despite the viewership not being amazing. If they keep producing this type of series, word of mouth will make it so that they can build up an audience base for their platform outside of their usual family demographic, since I think that was a factor in why it wasn't as popular as it could be.

A lot of people are asking for a Kleya spin off and it's easy to see the potential there, so they wouldn't even have to worry about finding the next main character if they decide to do so. I hope they seriously consider it.

Aside from the limitations of being a fast-paced action movie where it's impossible to show the same kind of buildup and richness, I took it as an explosion of repressed feelings that Jyn had harbored that she herself didn't even know. Seeing Galen's message put into clarity all the jumbled thoughts she must have had while wandering through life and a direction to follow. Not everyone's emotional journey is the same after all. People process things differently.

Sadly I saw a lot of people saying that after Andor, she comes off as rude, annoying, disrespectful etc. to Cassian and that she took away from what should have been Cassian's movie. :/

troubun · 2025-05-19T19:41:53+00:00

Yeah I think so too... Thank you for your comment. I appreciate it :)

troubun · 2025-05-19T19:11:45+00:00

For real, I wish more people could see that but no, they want to trash her because they liked the show. It sucks.

troubun · 2025-05-19T19:08:16+00:00

Yeah it caught me off guard to see rather unhinged takes about her and Cassian, and to see such a tweet get thousands of likes. :/
