But the fact that the universe diverges because of a pebble is never not be funny in the "Really, f4?" way. I sincerely hope that DoroInu fix this in the anime.

Oh, shit! Two slot Madokami in one 10 roll! Now I'm afraid to go to my campus tomorrow.

Geez. I "only" got one Madokami from my first 10 cards, but I guess that means the karmic backlash won't be as dramatic. Probably gonna wait a day or two before trying for more slots...

TBH, That kind of thing seems truer to the spirit of For Want Of A Nail (AKA the Butterfly Effect) than most examples.

Also? You guys are getting Madokami in your first multis? tongue I got her in 51 pulls! And they used most of my Gems! (I still have 200 tickets left)

I didn't get multiple of her, I just got her in one ten roll then again in the next.

Isee, BTW I also gat all of the Limited Memoria, 1 The Light of Hope without Despair, 2 of the other 4 Star and 2 Towards Hope (AKA a That Which Divides 2: Electric Boogaloo). How useful are they?

The space-hugs memoria is pretty good, at least if you get trolled by evasion as frequently as I do. Don't really know about the other ones.

Space Lesbians is good now and is currently one of the most sought-after memoria in the game in JP thanks to Spirit Enhancement giving a lot of girls a passive World of Bullshit and giving Moemura and Coolmura a turn-1 100% evade.

I personally spent about 70 rolls and got 2 Madokami and my fourth Tsukuyo.

Fight for something, even if its meaningless.

I've done 40 rolls so far and gotten bupkis, and that was all the tickets and gems I had ready (including the ones from the event that just started). I may be able to hit the pity counter if I'm lucky, but only from the combination of the facts that the banner is a full two weeks long, spans a new month so shop contents refreshes, and there's a lot of content I haven't done yet that I can grind for gems.

Really from Jupiter, but not an alien.

Well, it took me the full 100 draws to get a second slot on her, which used up pretty much all my gems and about 10 tickets, so there's that. Only one each of the 4* memoria out of all those draws, too.

Not sure if grinding for maybe-possibly getting a third slot is even worth it... but what else is there to save gems for now? The mystery NA exclusive?

IroYachi duo unit, Cool Homu, Sakurako (too many light..), and also Chiharu is a pretty strong forest unit, and strong forest is always welcome.

That Iroha-Yachiyo unit is the last remaining S-rank on the wiki's list (which are indeed all light-type), so that probably counts as important. Did want to try for sakura-rumor-girl, too, but it's hard to plan out saving up gems for all these things, at least without magical whale money. Homura probably isn't in my budget, since the glasses version is probably better with three slots than she is with one.

Will have to decide if buying a minimal number of gems to do some daily 10x draws would be worth it. Wasn't planning to do that for anything besides this one character, so that shouldn't be a slippery slope...

Well, I got lucky enough to get one of U!Madoka's Destiny Gems, so now she, Homura and Mito are the only nat 4s I got more then one slot for.

I also forgot to mention that I summoned Mel during my first attempt for Madoka, and that upon checking the list I am missing only 5 Unlimited girls (Tsukuyo, Mifuyu, Karin, Mami and Kanae) and pretty much every Limited 4 Star that isn't a Mad Artist turned Bad Santa turned Accidental Hero or an apotheosed Magical Girl.

Might also consider shaking up my Mirrors team a bit but first I want to ask if 2 slots (technically 3 with the EX skill) is enough for Mirrors.

Also the free memoria with YachIro are gonna get a lot of mileage for Grinding, but I want to ask if it only affects the girl that has it or the whole team?

[up] Well, I was able to squeak by into S-rank using two 2-slots (Darc and Sayaka) and one with 4 (Yachiyo), so it's workable, unless you need to absolutely dominate all competition. The lack of skill memoria on the first two doesn't matter a whole lot because, in a tough fight, Yachiyo is usually the only survivor by turn 3 anyway. (Much to her dismay, I assume...)

You do miss out on the stat bonuses, though. And things get complicated with more than 3 characters, haven't done much with that myself. The really hardcore players tend to use only two, fully slotted, one of which is usually Darc.

I haven't tested that episode-level memoria, but the wiki says it only affects the girl carrying it. And that it doesn't work for supports... which is kinda obvious.

[up] Yachiyo being the last girl standing also sums up most of my experiences in mirrors (the ones that don't involve losing at least)

Some new English cast was announced for Magia Record's anime: Michelle Marie is Touka Satomi, Mela Lee is Nemu Hiiragi, and Lisa Reimold (Whose only other known role is Tuuli) as Ui Tamaki. Glad to know the dub is using a bunch of newcomers, as some of them are really good and deserve to get more work.

((prays that Lizzie Freeman gets a role in Magireco))

Alright so for JP players, can anyone explain Nagisa's valentines event or at least the ramifications of such?

AlaAlba Since: Jun, 2011
#56219: Feb 27th 2020 at 5:12:46 PM

tl;dr Nagisa, who has been living happily after her first event where she basically run away from her duty as Madokami's intel for the MagiReco universe, starts to have her alternate universe self bleed into her. Turns out, the Mirror Witch has grown so strong that her barrier becomes a gate to other universes (just as explained in Nanoha event), and one of the alternate Charlotte that is implied to be the source of her alternate self-bleed escapes Madokami, leeches energy from Mirror barrier, and makes a lot of baby Charlottes. Mami beats them up. The end.

[up] Fascinating. the Mirror Witch seems like an interesting elephant in the room there.

Also "Towards Hope" is an good localization. Removes the Ambiguous Syntax that plagued the other name and clarifies the meaning.

9. A touching, if tragic story about a girl who was mistreated by her family and peers, and thus could only find solace with a similarly isolated monster. But predictable as it may be, that relationship cannot last, and Sana must now try and rebuild her life with new friends. A solid individual story that also raises more long-term questions. Are all Uwasa artificially made from AI, or was it just Ai? If Ai can grow to properly think and care about others, what does it say about other Uwasa? The show continues to be intriguing.

Idk how people handle new episode discussion in this thread so I'll just spoiler the whole thing. Man, I didn't like this episode too much which is a shame.

I think magireco's first 3 episodes are great and they got me invested enough to actually start playing the game. The next couple were also good but they didn't adapt the game's story as well as the first three did, but this last one really shows how bad this anime's pacing has gotten. Things blitz by in the blink of an eye, characters are introduced left and right, pretty important stuff is being left out and Iroha is slowly failing to stand on her own two feet as a character.

Sana's story wasn't handled the best in-game, and I like the changes they made to Ai's design and mannerisms, but otherwise it feels mostly inferior. The anime really needs many more episodes to slow down and explore its characters more, because all of the drama is dropped on us in the first 14 minutes and resolved in the next 6. Alina's introduction is wonderful fanservice to those who know her role in the game, but for anyone new to Magia Record's story her presence is so brief and ill-explained you'd wonder why it needed to happen... other than, y'know, being able to skip to Ai's death. It's about as long as it needs to be, but I wish it happened an episode later so we had just a little more time to get attached to her. Spend another half episode on establishing Iroha and Sana's dynamic first, so the payoff at the end is better and she can truly leave Ai behind.

So I guess the subtitles are also rendering Alina's English as Italian

Consistency is key.

Speaking of which, I'm considering getting U!Madoka's 2nd Magia and as such I'm wondering if all the mats in the Hereafter show would be enought.

Also Does anyone know when the Over Limiter Memoriae will drop in NA? I do have 4 Limited ones to MLB if they show up.

[up] JP only got the over-limiter for new year's and the second anniversary, and both times you had to buy "Mitama's grab bags" with paid magia stones to get them. So, probably not anytime soon, and apparently free-to-play or cheap-to-play players are out of luck.
