* ''Heart of the Sun'':
** The second part of the event shows the characters fighting off the Diviners. While most of them end up being an OffscreenMomentOfAwesome, props goes to Ladiva, as she gets to show off how she is able to match off against Bennu in his ''human'' guise before letting the crew go on their way, [[WorthyOpponent managing to gain the Primals respect]].

Hurting Hero is a disambiguation


** Showing Gran as an empathetic and HurtingHero, who's reminded by Ferry's story of how alone he felt when his father left him behind. And as young man who'll always stress what Lyria means to him as a person, regardless of what OTHERS THINK she is (a tool, a doll, an experiment, a weapon, a vessel, etc.).

* [[Creator/MadokaYonezawa Madoka Yonezawa's]] impressive vocal performance as Ferry. She convincingly switches between a normal "talking voice" and a much lower [[ContraltoOfDanger "serious voice"]], really giving the impression of having the [[DeTerminator iron will]] it'd take for someone to NOT go insane [[AndIMustScream after 100 years of isolation without memories and with no way out.]] In the scene where Celeste is summoned, her performance becomes almost HotBlooded.

** Keeping Ferry's personality intact despite a pretty significant change to her backstory. She's immediately cooperative not because her characterization was changed or because of time constraints (the second season does take its sweet time with character arcs), but because she didn't isolate herself willingly and never had a reason to blame herself for what happened on Tramont island. Notably, she instantly starts blaming herself when Celeste swallows Lyria, Io and Orchis instead of her, but Gran immediately assures her they are fine (as Gran and Lyria are life-linked) and that it's not her fault. Drang's description in the game that she is strong-willed is also represented by giving her one hell of a DeterminedExpression and [[ContraltoOfDanger voice]] when it's time to cast emotions aside.

*** On meta note; after looming in backstory for a ''long'' time, we finally get to fight a honest-to-god Astral at the height of his power. Lucilius (Raid) and its hard version that was released shortly after the event only serves to demonstrate his strength.
*** The Hard version of the raid opens with Lucilius doing 30,000 plain damage to your entire party. It's a 6 man raid with a 30 minute time limit, and if six characters across the entire raid are knocked out, he'll instantly kill ''everyone'', including backline allies. [[BrutalBonusLevel Have fun.]]

* ''Granblue Fantasy'' is so well-known for its quality in storywriting, characters, and gameplay that it has a sizable overseas following despite technically remaining unreleased outside of Japan. Cygames is well aware of its overseas fanbase, adding an in-house English translation team in 2016 for their players.
* Cygames pays close attention to the game's fanbase, and its ability to hype up players in anticipation for their upcoming banners can be awe-inspiring.
** The banner released on October 31, 2018 and the hype around it was a huge example of this. When "Between Frost and Flames" was announced as a side story, many fans began to predict Aglovale's release as a gacha unit. These predictions were vindicated by the addition of an extra story for the side story and the in-game Aglovale sticker. Then, previews for "Welcome to Bistro Feendrache" revealed the new event wouldn't follow up on the plot of the previous Dragon Knights stories, sending fans clamoring for Aglovale into a panic. His fans began theorizing ways Aglovale might appear in the event, while other fans believed Arthur would get an SSR or Mordred would make it into the game. Half a day before the event and banner dropped, new journal entries for Lancelot, Vane, and Arthur appeared while nothing appeared above Aglovale's NPC journal entry, sending fans into a frenzy again. When the event finally released, the banner revealed its lineup: ''SSR Lancelot/Vane and SR Arthur/Mordred as two-in-one units '''and''' SSR Aglovale''. Fans went absolutely wild, as evidenced by the whopping [[https://twitter.com/granbluefantasy/status/1057467254848114688 12k retweets on Aglovale's reveal tweet]].

'''Season 2'''
* This season takes more time to tell stories and develop its characters, placing quality over quantity so to say (very little "fanservice" in the form of including characters that aren't strictly needed), which greatly increases the emotional impact that the fates of each character have.
*[[Creator/MadokaYonezawa Madoka Yonezawa's]] impressive vocal performance as Ferry. She convincingly switches between a normal "talking voice" and a much lower [[ContraltoOfDanger "serious voice"]], really giving the impression of having the [[DeTerminator iron will]] it'd take for someone to NOT go insane [[AndIMustScream after 100 years of isolation without memories and with no way out.]] In the scene where Celeste is summoned, her performance becomes almost HotBlooded.
-->'''Ferry (InternalMonologue)''': We WILL rescue these girls from Celeste. And then, this long existence of wandering through the fog, this hollow pain of missing memories, will come to an end. ''I WILL become me AGAIN!''
-->'''Ferry''': ''Come forth! CELESTE!''
* Characterization:
**Showing Gran as an empathetic and HurtingHero, who's reminded by Ferry's story of how alone he felt when his father left him behind. And as young man who'll always stress what Lyria means to him as a person, regardless of what OTHERS THINK she is (a tool, a doll, an experiment, a weapon, a vessel, etc.).

* SugarWiki/VisualEffectsOfAwesome: The summoning of Celeste looks simply amazing: A magic circle, ominous blue lighting, sparkling electricity, an infernal whirlwind and a portal from who-knows-where (the Otherworld, maybe?), complete with [[LightIsNotGood backlight]], opening up in the dark skies. Summoning an abomination that can literally eat souls and steal death doesn't get much more awesome than this.

* Ever since the first "What Makes The Sky Blue" event, the game has simplified the depiction of Sandalphon's SignatureMove "Ain Soph Aur" due to the chibi-field sprites, and the Summon Call only showing it as a series of straight lasers aiming downward. That is until a unique CG for "The Maydays" event potray Ain Soph Aur as something more of a HomingLasers variant. Nontheless, seeing Sandalphon using it against a target larger than him is more of an overkill during a DavidVersusGoliath scenario.

In "The Maydays", Sariel puts his SuperStrength to use by [[{{Jawbreaker}} prying open the jaws]] of the giant shark Old Bruce ''with one arm'', while using the other arm to pull the swallowed victims.

** Cagliostro also "makes medical history", by saving Azrael and restoring her to her sanity. All in a day's work for the genius alchemist.
** None of this compares to the climax however; Sandalphon absorbs Lucifer's power in addition to the four primarchs, growing ''12'' wings, and proceeds to wipe the floor with Lucilius once and for all, with the Captain and Lyria's help. Even Vyrn pitches in to try and protect Sandy while he heals.
