damn Reflections for a White Clover was incredibly good
The writing and pacing was tight, it had a good self-contained story that still had space for continuation, both antagonists were both amazing in different ways, the tragedy of Sevilbarra and Krelkulkil is gripping, and loved that Japanese-themed remix of the battle theme.
like my only nitpick is that I wasn't particularly warmed up to Osada or her dad but they served their function well so
The ending leaves me expecting a future event with someone from Crimson Horizon using all those Demon Blades that fell.

The Princess Connect event's pretty fun so far, shame Pecorine's pretty eh since there's better defense options in Light
also Kokkoro seems really good on paper, like the only weak thing about her is her second skill

Got Lucifer fully uncapped, time to repeat the process of beating up Primarchs and Zooey all over again for Baha

Magnafest tomorrow, the new addition is what appears to be a better version of Angel Halo.

Granblue Fes day 1 (pre-Granblue Channel) news:
- This time, the special raid◊ is against Tiamat Malice, so the Malice variants of the six Omega summons are most likely going to be the new bosses introduced next year.
- Q&A stuff:
- Valentine's and White Day gifts were super successful with orders but also ultimately had resulted in a loss with 10 million yen spent on return gifts
- Like many fans suspected, Belial was made because they wanted to outdo Sandalphon, since Avatar wouldn't be able to emote much, they also needed a direct antagonist. "we aimed to barely make his lines safe for TV, and toed that line very closely."
- Those two pictures of Katalina in different poses that never actually happened was because the plan to the ability to have Grand versions of the main cast change element was too broken.
- Too early to say there'll be 5* uncaps besides Anila for limited characters
- Scathacha getting her final uncap despite her relative recentness is because they wanted to do something serious with her after the comedic summer event
- Treasure Hunt does not upgrade the quality of chests. But it does make more chests drop, combining all possible drop rate increases, you can get up to 300% increased drop rate on chests. A 1% drop rate becomes a 3% chance in those circumstances.
- The composer is so addicted to Guild Wars that he once turned in his assigned work only after the daily midnight restriction.

Feeling incredibly frustrated with whichever crew member deciding not to activate 2 green potions or 30% charge bar as the support and just fucking activating all the element boosters, locking them out for three days
it makes farming magnafest so much more annoying
EDIT: The Bahamut shrine
Some of the doodles Cygames employees put on the convention wall, I wanna see kid Walder and Percy interact now

Before the storm closes in, the wolf howls at th
So just for fun, I decided to make a couple of ideas for future Crossover Events for this game, as well as which characters could be featured.
- Duelist's Return: Erika Sumeragi, Rowen Dragespear, and Eris Anthule
- She Leaves Blood Wherever She Goes: Saya Otonashi
- Namco Fantasy Stars: Gilgamesh, Wonder Momo, Valkyrie, Klonoa, and Taira no Kagekiyo
- SD Gundam World Sangoku Soketsuden: Journey of the Three Warriors: Liu Bei Unicorn Gundam, Guan Yu Nu Gundam and Zhang Fei God Gundam
- Doomed Fantasy of Doomy Doom: Zim, GIR, Dib Membrane, Gazlene "Gaz" Membrane, and Miss Bitters
Well, what do you guys think?
The storm has now resided, the wolf now rests.
Unfortunately, I'm not familiar with any of them except Invader Zim, which I think would be a... let's say tonal mismatch.
It's been fun.

I don't think they would quite explicitly go so far as to invoke Namco and have them all together but any of those games would make a fun crossover and they have done retro crossovers, though GBF has been kinda trending towards more recent stuff as of late.
A relationship chart for the angels and Zooey is included in the Granblue Fes pamphlet and it apparently outright confirms Lucio and Lucifer
are indeed different people.

So we can finally separate them on the character pages.

You know what I want for a collab, even if it's a small one? Zombie Land Saga. It's even already a CyGames property!
It's been fun.

Pre-Granblue Channel stuff
- The Joya is not going berserk this year.
- More Valentine's variants are possibly in the works
- The monster costumes from the Robomi Z event were originally going to be playable
- Seox will get a seasonal skin
- The workshop from Make Up and Go was a test run for My Room functionality that many other mobile games have. They still haven’t added it to GBF because they figured out a way to make it meaningful without adding more drudge work to the game, they don't want players to constantly go back and toggle things around just for raids.
- FKHR wants to continue Sevilbarra's story and also give him a SSR version
- Silva and Sandalphon are the winners of the 5th anniversary poll and thus will get special costumes next year.
- Today's gifts are: 600 BP, 150 1/2 Elixirs, 3000 crystals, Guaranteed SSR character ticket(!), 1 million rupies, 2500 CP, 5 steel bricks, a new Lumi Sword to be added to the shop, a sunlight stone and a gold brick!
- New 18-person raid is Akasha Impossible, which will be harder than Ult Baha. Only one Akashic weapon can be equipped in a grid at a time, obtaining them will be similar to the Rose Queen weapons
- Due to Tiamat Malice and her tier being the new difficulty for 6-man elemental raids, Nezha/Apollo/Macula Marius/Twin Elements/Medusa/DAO Impossible raids will be updated to allow for Strike Time, more players to join in, elixirs to be used and AP/BP cost to be lowered.
- Same will apply for Hector/Morrigna/Ca Ong/Prometheus/Anubis/Gilgamesh later in terms of more players, there will also be a new trophy for beating each one solo.
- Vajra and Lyria skins for this year's Auld Lang Syne event
- New Zodiac is Kuvira◊ voiced by Yui Horie
- Andira will get her FLB next month
- Vane, Eahta, Beatrix New Year's skins◊
- Shiva to be playable◊ by end of this year
- Annual Society event is called Second Advent, event SR is a new characer◊ named Cassius
- New artwork for Eustace and Beatrix◊, possibly new versions?
- Love Live event to be added to Side Stories next month along with the Aquors FLB
- ROTB daily missions will now reward gold nuggets for fulfilling the quota of beating each one five times
- Anniversary teasers:
- Rank will have its cap expanded to 250
- Oracles have been delayed to the fifth anniversary celebration but they revealed all of their names and uncap artwork (Maria Theresa◊, Kazerila◊, Frau◊, Geisenborger◊, Estariola◊, Aranan◊, Nia◊, Rozelia◊, Caim◊, and Harzerila◊)
- New skin will have Gran/Djeeta as an Eternal! This will only become available after recruiting all ten Eternals.
- FREE ATMA WEAPON FOR THE NEXT ANNIVERSARY EVENT
- Light/Dark Seraphic weapons to be introduced
- Normal/Hard difficulties to be added to some raids
- Two new soundtracks, Promise and Chaos◊, they will be released on the same day. Sandalphon will do the next character single.
- Roulette◊...
Oh man, they're really going all-out, huh? I love the livestreams. They're so much fun.
It's been fun.

WMTSB III set for the end of February, it will end Sandalphon's story and finally bring in Lucio and address his identity.
Zooey getting a bit too personal with Vira and same with Vane to Percy (context: the actors had to figure out which perfume is the Siegfried one and some of them had waaaayyyyyy too much fun with this game)
Lord HRT blessing someone with an SSR character
The new character is almost certainly the leader of the dark angels Olivia is a part of, I would say. That image has him mocking the idea of being 'a tool to maintain homeostasis'.
It's been fun.

In addition to the Eternal costume, there will be an even specialer version for people who uncapped all of them.
Each Akashic weapon will give boosts to two different weapon proficiencies
- So the name of Empress is "Maria Teresa"? Googling gives us this wikipedia article. Would she be Named After Somebody Famous?
- Lovers (Nia)'s uncap artwork clearly stands out from the rest. While her fellow Oracles are smiling and calm, she is crying. Ho boy, the hype is real.
Reminds me of FFXIV Eikons/Primals.
