One of the highest ranked guilds
in Guild Wars right now are a bunch of SAO roleplayers who all pretend to be Kirito protecting the one member who is Asuna.
It's named Kiritoland
I wish I was making this up

There's also one which is Negi plus 29 members of Class 3-A. The guildmaster (Negi) has the achievement for all the Eternal 5*s, I believe.

It's been fun.Belial and his gang go on a summer vacation
My current strategy for farming GW is Mechanic/Melissabelle/Lancelot/Neza/Petra/Seofon for Extreme+ and Sage/Rosetta/Korwa/Neza/Selfira/Seofon for Tezcat but neither are quite as effective as I want them to be. ah well, maybe next legfest i'll get lecia or lennah
Flash gala has started
, Summer Rosetta is SSR Earth and seems to be basically her Grand version with Rose Barrier slightly tweaked and Yuisis is SR Wind.
Also a new UI update; Shield buffs now show how much HP is left which is nice because now I can actually keep track of how close Orchis is to getting debuffed
EDIT: I limited myself it to one ten-roll because all the summer characters are still around until August and it was a bit of an emotional rollercoaster, going from tentative curiosity to disappointment with the yellow crystal to allowing myself to get excited when four rainbow crystals appeared and then finally bitterness when they were all gold moons in disguise
goddammit the whole point of using a dama bar on ixaba is because i didn't think i was gonna roll another!! now what am i supposed to do with this one

So last night I completed chapter 44 and not only did I unlock Lecia I noticed I had enough crystals for a 10 draw. I figured I'd give it a shot seeing it was Flash Gala after all.
I ended up getting Summer Lecia.
I just unlocked her through story and then I end up getting her swimsuit version. What are the odds of that happening? XD
Is everyone else experiencing the "Edit Timer Locked" issue since July 21st? I have no ways of telling if the pages would certainly prevent other users from editing if one editor is busy making changes, as well as any actual indication as to when the edit timer actually expires (as it is completely frozen at 20:00 no matter how long you stay in the Editor)
Also, sorry in advance if the Granblue Fantasy page (as well as Shadowverse) were edit locked for a long period of time in these past hours, as I have been slowly making changes one-at-a-time while this bug is still active (at least in my own computer)...

With Great Power, Comes Great MotivationPromo image for the next story arc
◊
This is either the new locale or raid boss and not quite sure which would be cooler
I want to punch myself so hard for wasting more than 60 betting tickets and not getting even a single Crystal...
At least I understood the suffering of the other players who gamble in their GW bets.
Just wanted to take a very short break to cool off, my Shadowverse matches have also caused me to tilt from consecutive loses.
BRB, gonna play some offline games to vent off frustration... Wake me up when Poacher's Day comes back.
With Great Power, Comes Great MotivationSeofon's swimsuit costume goes live today
, Tweyen and Threo's swimsuit skins will be on sale August 1st and August 14th respectively.
Played the new story chapters, very good introduction for the new arc
This whole True King controls Phantagrande doesn't really seem to jibe with the Erste Empire arc but eh I guess he swooped in after we beat Freesia
Violet Knight is a Harvin which either means they will be super moe or an asshole there are no in-betweens
ooh nice Lyria's glowy aura got an animation upgrade
wow they actually remembered Ca Ong existed when they made Ebisu
The mechanics of Ebisu and the Edgelands have some very interesting things in play, especially with the whole Astrals still being a thing there. Lots of interesting stuff about Loki especially with the mention of his dead brother
"didn't get the rank 155 HP boosts for your party? ok well then fuck you" cygames probably as they designed these Blessed Ones fights
Ebisu has the powers of fate, fortune, and chance but it's left completely up to itself or whatever it does to actually do things, another stunning example of the Astrals throwing whatever at the wall and going with it
I love how Rackam is just 100% done with this bullshit but is going along with making a volcano erupt to launch their ship
what hasn't Gran's father done at this point

True King probably knew the Erste Empires plans were doomed to failure, seems unlikely he wouldn't have the fill details going on with Akasha. But I figured nothing was going wrong for him during the first arc the moment they mentioned his existance and a title as grandiose as that. Haven't gotten far but the description of the Edgelands maies me think Abel will show up alive somewhere to recuit.

Every accusation by the GOP is ALWAYS a confession.It was already datamined but official confirmation of Seruel and Scathacha
getting swimsuit versions. So the other datamine thing about there being a fishing minigame, a free ten-draw ticket, and special summer character weapon tickets being in the event is probably true.
it's honestly kinda weird that they decided to do Alster family reunion and also Olivia is here, makes her seem extraneous to the cast despite her being the main draw
Finally got Graphic Archive IV and its Extra Works companion book, haven't looked fully through them but one thing I noticed while skimming is that Halloween Danua could've had a significantly less shitty outfit as a vampire or witch which makes the final product look that much worse.
The SSR tickets that came with them netted me Nemone and Catherine.
EDIT: uploading pics is a hassle but jotting down interesting concepts that were scrapped that caught my attention
- Summer Ayer's second artwork was gonna be him running away from Jessica lmao
- Summer Cordelia was floated around as a thing for summer Charlotta's second artwork Cygames why would you deny Bridgette her girlfriend this is the ultimate travesty
- Grand!Vira's second artwork was gonna be her walking straight towards the viewer which I honestly prefer because it brings her arc with Luminiera to a neat end by paralleling her original introduction as bonded with the Primal
- Constance looks waaaaaayyyyyy different than what we got in the game
- Lyria's event version was going to wear shoes
- Lamretta's water version had an erune and human nun with her at the picnic
- Cain actually uses his gun wtf just give him gun specialty like you did with the Black Knight
- Nina has a bunch of different artwork; one has her doing daily activities like shopping, another has her beat up a bunch of goons, her finalized second artwork has her either determined or even more turned-on with her dragon form blushing and explicitly showing who she was thinking about
- One of the proposed ideas for Vajra was for her to have an identical twin, in fact, at least five different concepts for all had twins
- Not actually a scrapped thing but Lancelot and Vane's casual outfits are actually just recycled from some cafe promo thing which makes me wonder if its outfits for Percival and Siegfried are going to be used in-game

Feower and Tien
will be in this year's summer event
so expect cygames to start selling their swimsuit costumes for them this month or next year
SSR Light Naoise, SSR Fire Ilsa
are this month's new swimsuit units and also Macula Marius has a swimsuit version as a summon now???????
Also Andira and Vajra rate-up in this month's Legfest
EDIT: Summer promo campaign
with free 10-rolls starting tomorrow until August 13th

Summer Olivia's profile lists the Automagods from Right Behind You as her dislikes and I have so many questions and theories now
I thought Megumi Han did Macula's voice so I'm really surprised to see Tange credited as her voice
The Automagods occupy that weird space around the Primarchs and the Astrals where I always feel like I'm kind of missing something in terms of what the various factions' connections and ulterior motives are. Especially when you have the Astrals, the Creators, the Primarchs, the Fallen Angels, the Pandemonium, the Otherworld Beasts, and whatever the hell the Automagods are all on some weird spectrum of allied with each other or not.
It's been fun.Wow, this event was a blast, it even had more animations and unique artwork than most. While I understand that Summer events tend to cling more on the funny and goofy side of things (especially since this one features Lowain and bros.).
At first I expected some few bits that would justify Olivia being in the spotlight more, and some other things like the following.
- I thought Albert would be featured, since this is Biri-biri Summer after all
- At what point of the plot did this take place on? Though I guess it would be a massive spoiler if they reveal that the current Supreme Primarch is now Sandalphon.
Don't get me wrong, I've been waiting a long time for a free Olivia and here she is. I think this event is actually a stepping stone so that we can get to know more about Olivia before she appears in WMTSB Part 3 (the chances are higher now).
Anyway, it's better than Poacher's Day IMO.
Who else wants to board the Olivia X Song ship?
With Great Power, Comes Great MotivationBzzt! Amped-Up Summer thoughts:
- Scathacha is here to remind everyone why she's amazing. She is absolutely the star, with fun moments like being defeated by chopsticks (reminds me of my childhood lol), gets some really good moments during fights, being a little shit when she feels like it, and acting as an anchor for everyone, even Olivia, practically hitting it off with anyone she meets. She's great and if she does have a summer version I'll probably throw everything I have at the gacha to get her
- Seofon's quest to get everyone to the beach part deux: guilt tripping! But at least the Stardust Town kids got some fun that wasn't disturbed by the shenanigans going on around them
- I have to admit even though I find the Lowain trio intolerable, they got some pretty good moments in here.
- This is the summer event with the most fleshed out antagonists and bringing in characters who already encountered the mafia was a good call.
- Heles getting kidnapped off-screen which is only recapped after the fact is lame and is blatantly just to amp up the stakes for the final act.
- I didn't have much thought on Yngwie before this event but damn. I can't help but like him despite him having a ton of individual traits that I dislike.
- This event has a lot of hetero romance brought up, which makes Djeeta pretending to be Tien's sister whereas Gran pretends to be her fiancee really glaring.
- One thing I do find lacking is that there isn't a random assortment of characters for the event so there aren't really interesting moments you get from throwing random characters together like Vira helping Tanya out or Lecia discussing matters with Zeta.
- I love how Tweyen forgot her shades solely so Olivia could get in one more show of her powers, it's actually kinda charming. I know it's probably because there's no guarantee that players read Poacher's Day but still. Why didn't Tweyen bring her shades, did she think the sun wouldn't be the same
- Heles 5* blease, the ending felt like it's setting up for her regular version getting one

Platinum Games' Action RPG spinoff will have 5 different languages
.
an International launch seems more likely now.
Got to wait until december for any more details, though.
