I just hope that it's generally a good story.

It probably won't be on the level of 6 but it's hard to top that honestly.

She's very strong but I don't think Melusine is quite a worldwide threat. Not sure it's a transferrable talent.

This is a great opportunity to mention why I’ve come around to Melusine after being on the fence about her for a while.

When I first heard that she was the left hand of Albion, a dragon that is as old as the planet Earth and is considered the equivalent to a Grand Servant to dragons, I was pretty annoyed.

The sheer level of power that Melusine made me question what the point was with making her subservient to Morgan when she could’ve easily decapitated her on behalf of Aurora.

It kind of felt like Nasu wanted to make Morgan look weaker by comparison when she was already the strongest Lostbelt King.

But after the story explored her relationship to Percival and her tragic past, I couldn't help but feel an appreciation for her character.

The power scaling is still silly, but it helps that being only the hand of Albion means that she probably can’t be as powerful as the original dragon.

If she was like Galacta Knightnote , I’d be annoyed by the absurd power scaling.

Basically, I feel more comfortable knowing that she could probably destroy an entire continent instead of the planet.note  At the end of the day, I think that Melusine is just a good example of how to write an overpowered character right: tragedy.

On another note, I realized that I never properly gave my thoughts on the Requiem event, but I saw that everyone had basically said what I was thinking so I didn’t feel the need to bring it up. Just felt like I needed to say this because I brought it up like 20 or 30 pages ago.

And on another note, I think I’ve realized why Siegfried is so much more attractive as a swimsuit swordmaster. It's not the glasses, it’s that he can finally stand up straight.

Since summer 3, so about 4 years ago. And yeah, we're never going to get them.

My pansexual ass is disappointed…

Wait, isn’t it about time for JP’s Summer Event? What’s are they doing?

Edit:

I decided to read the reddit post about what the translators said at Sakuracon…

Albert and the team aren’t perfectnote  but I never thought that they would be harassed. And by the JP player base of all people! Usually it’s the west that bashes localizers…

Point is, they all need a hug. It’s like I always say: “The life of a localizer is a thankless one, so we should change that.”

[down] It’s the rerun of last year’s event right now though, right?

Nah we're still in Traum pre-release hype, I'd expect the summer event rerun to be after Traum drops in June.

Do you have a link to that?

Instead of focusing on relatives that divide us, maybe we should try to find the absolutes that tie us.

[up]x5 Bear in mind, that if any people were harrising the team, they were a minority. Mostly because as far as i know, most of JP doesn't care about NA.

Does seem it was disputed at least somewhat by somebody else who was there, so that's worth keeping in mind.

But I'm never surprised when any fandom has toxic assholes in it.

The only time I've seen Japanese fans talk about NA was interest in the localization

As far as i remember those weren't supposed to be translated to japanese at first, but i guess the outcry was enough for it to happen.

Okay, Morgan is finally 10/10/10, now to see what kind of meme farming I can do later without Oberon or Koyanskaya of Light

Jesus Christ, what the fuck?!

I decided to roll for Osakabehime Archer since I still have a chance of getting Lamba Melt down the line.

Twenty two tickets later and three ten rolls later, I somehow get Summer Musashi to freaking NP 6!

How the fuck do you do that?!

[up][up] That’s it, I’m done.

Lamda is a fucking cursed unit.

Edit: Wait, this was about Osakabehime? Shit…

Well, my point still stands.

I’ll do a ten roll just so I can get some craft essences.

Yeah...about that, I threw nine quartz more and Batty finally showed up.

You know, it's kind of weird, just earlier I was decrying how impractical the servant coins were because of how unlikely it is to actually get an SSR servant to NP 6...and now I have one.

Summer is a cursed banner and I should really learn to not go anywhere near it. I will be screwed regardless of my actual goal in a banner.

Except summer 1. Archuria's nice to me.

That's why I'm reluctant to even try on the next banner. Last thing I want is to get trolled with NP 6 Bunnytoria and neither Okita nor Melt again.

At least I got a 5* this time. Even if it was an Altera. I guess she could be level 120 now if I cared.
