Interdimensional Observer Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 (edited) A little more SRW J babble... Spoiler Ironic, much? Since when have YOU won anything! I thought this would happen when all the Gradosians retreated on Mars.😐 Let's see... One general who has been deemed a outlaw to his country. And an army of aliens who: Had the heroes find and destroy their superweapon before it could be used on random chance. Lost their control of the Moon to the Fury and had their army decimated in the process. Lost control of Mars to the heroes, which was immediately followed by a Jovian peace faction terminating their military alliance and leaving them with naught but said lone outlaw. You seriously think you can capture another bad guy's two-continents-killing superweapon with one manned battleship, the remnants of an army, and few unmanned machines? -Well, maybe you could if you were the heroes, but you aren't. You are the dredges of failed ambitions! You are the wretched swine of selfishness ready to be slaughtered! Oh Karla, how threatening you are -with 6300 HP!😛 How did you not die ages ago?! You and Gosterro have far outlived your role! Go to hell! Go to hell! Go to hell!😡 ...And that was my strategy for eradicating the bulk of these overstayed goons.😄 All of Grados's generals FINALLY died to the Strike + Zealx3 + Valorx3 Hades Attack stratagem (the first of the four actions moved the Zeorymer into the perfect spot). It left Masato & Miku almost entirely empty of SP, but I thought it would save me more total SP across my entire team than had I targeted the officers one-by-one as I usually would.😄 No Spirits were needed to take down the Jovian battleship, and I managed to squeeze in Ru Kain's demise in the same turn. -His explanation for coming back was wack- time travel?🤨 Are you sure the Fury didn't help you to cause more human vs. human annihilation? Or did you end up near the Kuiper Belt, slowly lose consciousness as your cockpit ran low on oxygen, let the autopilot bring you near Jupiter, and then wake up when the cockpit alerts sounded as Jovians approached, and suddenly rationalize all your low-oxygen hallucinations as "time travel"? I'll believe that instead unless proven otherwise. And then Creuset showed up again. He was on the battlefield in the early chapters I think, it feels soooo long ago, even if it hasn't been 20 IRL days. Nice funnels Providence Gundam, but in a game like this, a dinky little real robot without an imposing visage isn't at all intimidating so late. 108000 HP makes him the first foe to hit six digits, but I had plenty of SP to off him with. His in-battle dialogue against Masato was interesting, the Char Clone is a literal clone? Farewell, Woefully Weak Crescent Man! I like Chairman Zala getting killed by his own sane soldiers at the end, yay for the faceless NPCs! Right beforehand, I witnessed another instance of why Kira probably has his unofficial fan nickname. And there was that nice Nadesico-Zeorymer-Original sci-fi physics mumbo-jumbo tag-team to stop a SEED disaster. I ❤️ SRW.😆 -Plus the Full Metal Panic and G Gundam crews carrying out base infiltration. I expect Yzak will very belatedly show up at the start of the next battle, and with him (I seriously thought he was a girl up to this point😅), the last shall have joined. Rethinking my final 14 (plus Nadesico, Archangel, and Banpresto Original)... Eternal Million A Mazinkaiser Zeorymer Tekkaman Blade Tekkaman Rapier- Double Voltekka looks strong at 7000 for only two units, and she has Strike. Layzner Mk.II- I've been using Eiji all game long so he deserves it, despite V-Maximum being weak as an attack. Freedom Gundam Justice Gundam Dragon Gundam- Questionable. Can boosting his Skill/Ability/Maneuver stat reduce or negate the chances of enemy Orgone Cloud dodging? His combo with Argo is still better than God + Rising/Nobel. Bolt Gundam Nelly Brain Iiki Brain- I need two Brains for a combination attack to make their damage worthwhile. Hime's Bless won't be so useful anymore. Final Dancouga- A solid super robot that doesn't need a companion fielded for full offense. Combination Attacks oddly forbid all use of Support Attack in J, so it's actually not a real loss, the Support Attack and Instinct ought to make up for Dancougaken (one syllable too many if you ask me)'s lower attack value. -Great Mazinger could work here too b/c Mazinkaiser is already being deployed, but I think I prefer having Dan's sub-pilots. Technically would be better trading the G Gundam duo for the Choudenjis for that reason. Leans towards Reals stylistically, but then the Tekkamen aren't really robots, the Brains are organic, the two G Gundams are Supers that straddle the lines a wee bit, and the very Real Freedom & Justice are buzzing around in those big Meteors. It's not a "small, scrawny Real" final army, it has got visual diversity. Technically, I could upgrade the Swap stat on the battleships and upgrade up to 6 more units. -But if they enter the fray at base Will, then they aren't going to be very useful against bosses at the end of a fight save for Aid/Enable/Renew. With 3.8 million funds stored away, I have plenty to spend for final preparations. And those 50-something bonus stat points I shall probably dump into Melee/Ranged for what would hopefully be a none-too-marginal damage increase. The last three scenarios are all that remains, with the licenses resolved it'll all be Fury. They ought to have the manpower for that in their moon cradle. Pls don't be too annoying with the Orgone Cloud.🤞 6 hours ago, GuardianSing said: Okay after receiving a massive 5 votes for the straw poll I see a clear winner If I had voted, I might've made it a tie and forced you into a tiebreaker, what a missed opportunity. -A lesson on the importance of voting.😆 Hopefully you'll enjoy it BTW!😀 Edited April 22, 2023 by Interdimensional Observer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll believe that instead unless proven otherwise. It's kinda weird to have done that whole time travel thing, since that never happened to Ru Kain in the Layzner anime. Also, I'll admit I forgot, but Ru Kain actually died? That's a curious change, since he actually gets to live through even the sequel. I guess since the Layzner story in J had to be cut-short, as the Gradosians never manage to conquer Earth. Since the sequel actually has Ru Kain's character go through a change. To wit, in the Layzner sequel OVA, it's revealed that Gradosians were actually humans who ended stranded on Planet Grados. I think a wormhole was involved, and/or alien abduction, or something. Ultimately that detail was forgotten by them by the time the anime began. At least until it was rediscovered in the sequel OVA. This revelation was quite the surprise for the Gradosians, who considered themselves superior to humans. This actually changed Ru Kain's attitude a bit, though while he still held Gradosian culture as superior to Earth's, he was more willing to better reward Earthling collaborators and treat them better and stuff. So long they culturally assimilated, of course. In the end, the Gradosian occupation of Earth ends, and Ru Kain travels back to Grados with Julia (as they had fallen in love by then and in fact it was her who convinced him to stop the occupation), intent to actually strive for peaceful relations between both planets. Or something like that. So, the overall Layzner story ultimately has a happy ending, despite how the anime itself ended. 47 minutes ago, Interdimensional Observer said: And then Creuset showed up again.

That's certainly one way to prevent Prince of Darkness from happening.

Despite the strong start on Mars, I think it might be fair to say SPT Layzner's ending fizzles in J, judging from what you say. 21 minutes ago, Acacia Sgt said: Did you noticed that Creuset actually killed Kusakabe?

Lightchao42 Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 Having cleared Stargazer's Tower in the final chapter, Trails to Azure should almost be finished... Spoiler Though they didn't get portraits like Duvalie did, it was cool fighting the other two members of the Stahlritter. It turns out Fiora was wrong, some girls don't mind being called stout. Duvalie gets to showcase her... unique personality despite her limited screentime (and she still gets bullied, as usual). Arianrhod is yet another boss you're not supposed to win against, but in a variation you need to get her HP to half to progress the plot. That doesn't mean she's easier to fight than Sigmund and Arios, since she can use her S-craft to wipe out your party whenever she wants. Apparently she gets even stronger when her mask breaks, but I didn't get to see it for myself since she used her S-craft immediately after. I'm interested in seeing a strategy against her that doesn't involve Zero Field... Arianrhod is unmasked to reveal that oh no, she's hot! Even if you don't win, she basically says "you did well enough, good luck rescuing KeA" and peaces out. It's indicated that Ouroboros's business in Crossbell was basically finished when the Sept-Terrion of Zero awakened, so I wonder how it factors into what's happening in Erebonia... Elie seems to have an idea as to who Arianrhod is (presumably Lianne Sandlot), but she never discloses her suspicions as of now. Clearly Arianrhod is Elie's mother, we don't know what she looks like so it can't be disproven. Now I can view the final bonding events, since I probably met the conditions with everyone.

Yeah, that was pushed forward, more or less, since J doesn't include the sequel OVA. Due to the three-year timeskip and requiring for Earth to be conquered, so not possible to see in J as it is. 18 minutes ago, Interdimensional Observer said: Pretty sure of it.

Usually that sort of thing tends to happen to the villains... which, I guess Julia still remained so for most of Layzner. Since, well, she was quite angry that Eiji killed Gale, after all, so they remained estranged for a looooong while. But yeah, Julia tends to be a secret for most of Layzner's appearances.

I think the big difference is that in J (and in the original anime for that matter) Ru Kain never got to work with humans. Or at least, proper Earthlings, since the Jovians would no longer count. It was only in the OVA he got to be around Earthlings for long enough, that when the discovery was made, he was quick to drop what little racial bigotry he had... while ramping up the cultural bigotry. 18 minutes ago, Interdimensional Observer said: So that's the no-sequel solution this time.

GuardianSing Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 (edited) So like, what is a Xenoblade? Also should I put future posts about this in spoilers, yay or nay? The cultural roadmap of giant titans fighting each other being really popular in Japanese media is very fascinating. Wait this is how the game is played?! Where's my giant grid box and turn based combat! Who am I kidding, I was gonna make that joke regardless of what game I played. First battle and the repeating dialogue is already scaring me for what is to come. Look! It's my favorite least-viable smash character! Even with the some-what dated graphics this game is beautiful. I will definitely be normal about this and not waste time doing every single side quest in the game. Interesting, I usually write spreadsheets about this stuff. Man I wish it was this easy to get a job in real life. Just walk around and suddenly some guy calls out to ask you to kill some monsters for a bed and a hot meal. Hey is that Walu- "Shulk, if a sequel of this game ever gets made make sure to avoid twitter for the first few months of it's release" So the crabs hit hard, got it. Seriously, the scenery is amazing, I'm a big sucker for red sunset visuals. Aaaand, after being distracted by the sunset so much I legit accidentally fell into the water while I wasn't looking. And they say Pokemon Go kills... Is saying you want to get married someday that embarrassing? Please tell me there's a fishing minigame. The nighttime ambience is lovely as well. Usually when an auto-run feature exist I expect it to...well keep me on the path I'm trying to automate. Oh sorry, are you not willing to jump off and break your legs to follow me? One minute you're chilling out beating a bunch of small lizards to a pulp, but then they call in his friend and you get obliterated in minutes...
