    Interesting. I never really saw the characters as one-note, but I can definitely see how one would see them that way.

    I've never heard of those latter two series; what are they about?

    Kemono Michi is about a professional wrestler that get isekai’d. They want him to kill all the demonic beasts but he is an animal lover who makes to make them all happy pets.

    Combatants is about what if a power ranger villain lackey got sent to a medieval world on a mission to conquer it.

    I do think Combatants is the best, the main female cast is Snow (she really reminds me of a fusion between Aqua and Darkness), Rose (who is a lot like Megumin but is embarrassed about being a chuuni) and Grimm (She is literally the butt of almost every joke) who is best girl.

    Well, I just watched the first (and so far only) episode of the new Konosuba prequel/spin-off about Megumin: Konosuba: An Explosion on This Wonderful World!

    My brother introduced me to Konosuba a couple years ago, and I kept watching because it's hilarious. It's cool to see it get more content. One thing I particularly like about this new series is this: it's hard to get a prequel right, and it's hard to get a spin-off that focuses on only one member of the original ensemble cast right; this new series is doing both at the same time, and yet it's really good.

    The problem I have with base series (and all of this mankata's) is that the characters are just so one note. I have read and watched Konosuba,  Kemono Michi and Combatants will be dispatched but all the characters are pretty same-y and boring. Except Grimm, she is great.

    IMO I think it’s more to make them vulnerable, especially on the Xenologues. It means anyone with a rapier can quickly one round them which, amusingly enough, makes them more vulnerable as opposed to stronger when someone gets near.

    True it really doesn't do anything for the player's, but helps against them. Made Panette and oddly enough Anna good in FX 5 as both have Hammers.

    Yeah, worst case scenario is that even in Maddening you can do FX itself on Normal to get the new units much easier. I imagine having units with 2k SP early on will make build customization easier too.

    But even in normal the FX takes awhile and the novelty wears off really quickly.

    Thanks for answering.

    That's a shame. So, after multiple trailers for the base game that promised a dragon protagonist, we finally get an actual dragon, only for it to a) not be the protagonist, and b) be locked behind DLC? I really don't understand IS's thought process.

    DLC bait and milking profits? That is usually the answer.

    So it seems like based on the join level of the new units, it’s likely you want to do the dlc after completing Solm.

    And without any spoilers how many new characters do you get? Also are their growth rates, and growth rates of the new classes, available somewhere?

    We get 5 characters, that while you can do it as early as chapter 6 then new units come at lv 20.

    *edit, added Build stat as well in the main post at the top with the spoilers

    You change the Def stats a bit much in the spoiler:

    Spoiler

    I don’t think Madeline has 127 Def.

     

  7. Citrinne and Panette, these two are always fun. Gotta love the disparity between let me give you an Island and here is a rock I found on the side of the road. I do love that Panette is one of the sweetest lasses and that she is that way in spite of her surviving off of bare knuckle brawling.
