Hmm... should she get Counterattack twice, though? Like I got it at level 2 and level 3. I didn't want to keep experiment​ at that time because I was kinda panicking (like I just spent a lot of time to unlock Chara after all and I did not want her to be broken). In GGG it seems like appearance is just visual (since you can swap it at will when forming your group) and I did not notice any stat changes or anything like that. I may be wrong.

Like Stabbington said Mashymere, Chara and Riddhe all have stat changes, the biggest and most obvious change being Mashymere and Chara either having an Awaken stat or not. Chara and Mashymere have different starting skills, if you buy them in their Cyber Newtype form then they have Cyber Newtype as their starting ability. I believe that both versions get the same skills as they level up, but in a different order. Marida also has an alternate form that is a solid red tension bar with slightly different stats, but she learns the same skills in the same order as she levels up, though her stat growths are different! She gets much higher Awaken as regular Marida, higher shooting and melee in the other. Mallet Sanguine has different stats and tension bar for his two versions too.

Getting counterattack twice is definitely a bug though, I got Cyber Newtype Chara and kept her like that and she learned Counterattack at either 2 or 3 and only once.

In SRWJ, is this thing about not deploying the Zeorymer unless required to get the Great Zeorymer some kind of glitch or is it an intended mechanic?

I have to assume it's intended.

Keep in mind that Masato isn't too thrilled to be it's pilot.

Alrighty then. If it wasn't intended I think I would have used the gameshark method. I'll try it the way the game wants though.

I wasn't sure since it just sounds like a weird way to get an upgrade, and SRWJ does have some weird glitches in it based on what I've read online.

it's kind of because deploying Zeorymer is a 'bad thing' and the game is rewarding you for minimizing it.

Okay, if this is the case then great. Sorry for panicking about this but I had no idea as the game isn't very clear about this at any point during getting the character. I had only played Overworld previously for a few hours so I never got around to using characters with multiple appearances. Like I really wanted to get Chara and here her skills were just changing on me without any explanation.

Check the stats on both appearances before you buy and you'll see the numbers be different and if you hit triangle you can see their starting skills and abilities.

Problem is I already bought her and saved. What should happen if I swap appearances when she is already levelled up a bit?

Thanks guys. Got all this Chara Soon stuff figured out now. I reset her as non Awakened and her first skill is Counterattack while if she is Awakened it is Cyber-Newtype.

So the game freaks out if I change appearance after scouting her I guess?

That's what I always thought MSF or Diamond Dogs should have as a gimmick if they ever make it into an SRW game, since Peace Walker and MGSV have you stealing vehicles and stuff anyways.

It's like, Big Boss can ride a Mass Produced Great Mazinger he ballooned somewhere, why not.

I could almost believe in a world where Zone of Enders made it in and brought along REX and RAY just because it'd be cool.

The way they described which characters you can use reads like a weird translation.

The fact that the line in that first screenshot is easily recognizable as a known English phrase and not something like "If it's kill or was kill..." gives me hope.

Either way, considering how they only released info on MD's EN Premium Edition like, what, two weeks before release, I wouldn't rule it out just yet.

The premium sound edition is a separate version to the normal one. But they might release an EN one.

I noticed that screenshot too. I guess they figured the time that Ruri's cutin is on-screen was short enough to not warrant some tweaks to make text viewable, like a black border around the letters.

But yeah, Banpresto does need to scale that habit back.

True, I was mainly thinking since theyr'e releasing at the same time, and not weeks apart like MD we mgiht not have time. I have my pre-order in for it either way.

It might not get an EN release due to liscensing the music though.

That's what had me worried and got me to preorder the Japanese premium version. I'm not sure how they'll handle music outside Japan. When the US release of initial D came out they couldn't get any of the rights to the Euro beat music so they filled it in with generic action music.
