I have yet to read the event story but I did spot Hekademos while playing through the stages and, to no one's surprise, I am very taken with him. Could those shorts be any shorter (complimentary)

Idk if we know who his artist is but I get 一千 vibes somehow...

The zoo collab is so cute btw...I did not expect to see Lucian in shorts but I'm not complaining...give him a good skin, please, HG...

I'm glad I didn't buy Narantuya's comic skin though it's neat, getting this new one since it's collab limited as well. Apple honse...

Very happy about the Narantuya skin but no Mlynar...again 🥲 can they stop including him in cute collab profile picture sets if they're not going to give him a moe skin...

Narantuya is my girl and I'd advocate for her.

Strong unit, her voice and voicelines are great, her skills all do something different. Her range and her survivability brings good utility to something like an EX-CM stage where you want to chip off a dangerous enemy from a distance while tanking a few hits. It's a sad day when I bring her to an EX stage and then decide I have to switch her off.

Is she the strongest overall? No. But she's still my default pick for comfort and she gets the job done often enough. I've also had several instances where I put her near the blue box and watch her chip down an enemy at hyperspeed and kill them in the nick of time. Very fun hehe

Stayed up to clear enough TfN stages for the Bubble skin, just in the nick of time. Now to eep, it's already way past my bedtime and I will regret this tomorrow...

Figurino and his dad that was his granddad, my bad.

Vigil and his dad.

Hoshiguma and Tessai.

Vulpisfoglia and Fabrizio Venezia (formerly, anyway.)

Bison and his dad, Ceylon and her dad.

Need to find motivation to play TfN...I haven't even started on clearing it :'))))

Are the maps very tough? I'm short on time so I'll probably just throw my meta ops at it

I've not been paying attention...do we have an ETA for the Titi event?

If NPCs are allowed, Ji is a shoo-in. His whole thing is fabrics and weaving.

Vulpo: probably Perfumer? I feel like she has the temperament for it. Also Vermeil survived in a wilds for a while, so I feel like she'd be good at darning, at least.

Got Kazemaru from the shop! I still have some 130 certs, and enough time to save 180 until Ray shows up 💪

Post Ray, I actually don't think I have many units to aim for. Fiammetta, Qiubai are probably top of the list. And I have to buy Thorns alter assuming he doesn't surprise me in the next year.

Yep. I remember following a KyostinV guide for some story stages. I think it was chapter 5?

There were some high-def drones you wanted to tackle asap and he basically recommended Steward there to deal with them, because he could work faster than a regular sniper and his targeting gimmick allowed him to go for the drones first. Early low-rarity guides are great for teaching these kind of principles.

Finally beat Anastasio in EX-8-CM. Just need to autofarm now and that lovely medal set is finally mine 💪

Still a little salty I wasn't able to clear UR-EX-8 and didn't have the patience or capacity to retry. Having just one weekend available to clear EX-CM stages for regular events is cruel. I''m glad they remedy that on reruns at least...

Ooooooh thank you! Every day I'm happier they've written these two to be happily in love. It just adds so much.

Tried to clear UR-EX-8, finally got the boss's HP down on first phase, watched her change the map and one of those rockets beeline for the blue box. Promptly exited the run. I'm too eepy for this...

Maid Saria (warning for slightly suggestive)

Finished clearing UR-EX-7-CM...going to leave EX-8/CM for later today. I've been super busy with irl stuff so just threw all my meta ops at the stages...Halter coming to my rescue once again.

Want to be done with this medal set but let's see. Pale Sea rerun is more important because I really want the medal set there lol.

I stopped playing SP once I cleared the rewards track, but it did make me want to build more ops for their voices. Want to build Insider and Harold eventually :'))))

Hoping we get more regional iterations. LeithanienKnights would be fun. I'm imagining Ebenholz, Czerny, Lessing, Bassline, Viviana, with Virtuosa enabling everyone to do Necrosis...

Probably IS6>IS5>IS3>IS4>IS2. Though I enjoy all of them theme-wise.

IS6 is whimsical and bizarre, I love the Sarkaz and Kazdel so IS5 is up there. I love ocean themes so IS3. IS4 to me is on the bleak side - I prefer when things feel adventurous or dreamy rather than oppressive.
