So, do we know what are the requirements for Jill? I assume it's like take the route she's on and then have a certain amount of kills between the Cross Ange characters?

I just got her and this is what I had:

I have 4 Cross Ange aces (Ange regular ace and Hilda, Rosalie and Chris were G-aces) and took out the Theodora while having Hilda and Rosalie attack it (Rosalie got last hit).

Then I took down Cleopatra with a last hit from Jill on the turn Salia showed up. Afterwards, Embryo tried to shoot Jill instead of Salia in the dialog section and Salia saved Jill instead of the other way around when you don't get Jill. (Saw it in a video).

Decided to let Jill get the last hit on Embryo. :getin:


Sucks she only has two attacks.

This is an amazing thing I did not know and now need to take advantage of from here on.

Note that it doesn't apply to Gain (because you gain some XP even if you don't kill them, and it'll multiply that). But it's still convenient.

I kind of want to point out that if you'd led with Sun Attack, you'd probably have been fine, analyse or not, since it has Armor Down, so all attacks after would've done more damage.

No, the bigger problem was actually getting peopel all the way across the map in time, Banjo only even got there thanks to Boost Dash + Multi Action and the ExC Laser. I didn't have anyone that could do a support attack, and Valor isn't online by that point. And the boss retreats below 10k. So it was very close, thankfully Lottie and Chitose hit him just right to put him a little above 10k.

I guess I technically had another turn, but i wasn't sure if it was the mission that has a mistranslated SR Point that read as though you had one more turn than you actually did.

It has one or two typos and hiccups in places where different editors might have been handling different parts of the script, but on the whole is as good as you see above. It's fantastic.

The most common mistakes seems to pronouns so sometimes it isn't clear who they are talking about. I honestly haven't noticed the typos since Amuro saying "dong" instead of "doing." The most glaring issue as far as I can tell is they screwed up Chris's dialog in one of the routes and she has text for a different character's line's.

I am really happy with how this script is easy to follow and understand. In Moon Dwellers I was completely lost.

I saw Gaine say 'Yu' instead of 'You' at one point. But it's almost entirely minor typoes rather than outright bizarre translations. Or the very stiff translations MD got.

Chitose and Nine remain adorably the best.

Yeah, I ran into one stage where literally every pilot had a type when announcing their attack which was fun but its usually minor stuff like missing a letter or a pronoun.

Tetsuya sometimes calls the General Blaster the General Booster in the subs and I'm pretty sure its Shin Liger not Shin Rygar but maybe its been that all along and every translation of Getter Robo G has been wrong. Pronouns, a "the" or "and" in the wrong place, the occasional missing "not" and Nubel Tokio are the main ones. Other than Nubel Tokio and pronouns sometimes making it tricky to figure out who someone is talking about a lot of the mistakes are ones that you autopilot fix in your brain as you read. I think there were 3 times with the wrong person being the active text box.

All in all its a really good translation that even has English idioms (and Chinese ones in the Chinese language versions), they only tried once to do an Izumi pun which is a noble effort to be honest because holy moly thats a disaster. They even patched the wrong SR points! I'd like them to do the skill parts and Tac Custom ones that are wrong too, but I honestly wasn't even expecting the patch we got. Hopefully they all have at least this quality from now on!

Having hit stage 22 now, I'm wondering: should I save up my Tac points or kinda splurge on stuff that could be immediately useful (good factory parts, skills like concentration)? I've got like 5-6k right now, so I could get a few.

I'm actually liking and actively using (a third of) the Cross Ange crew, surprisingly. Mostly Vivian and Salia besides Ange, if only because Commander and cheap haze. Also because apparently a secret may be tied to their combined kill count?

Mostly I'm just doing what I feel like and still getting all the skill points so far. This game is pretty goddamn fun.

If you haven't bought all the Tac Point Cusomtize levels, do that first. Then you should probably start picking up parts from the Factory, and maybe some skill programs, like Hit and Run for your Battleships.

If you mean a secret character, I didn't use Salia at all and had Hilda, Rosalie, Chris above 80 kills each and Ange was at a little over 60. Vivian was close to 45 I think.

Not sure if there is anything else, but I did all the Cross Ange routes and got the secret character.

PS, Hilda is the best. (I like Rosalie and Chris more but Hilda is still the best).

You touch my burger, and I'll slap you so hard you won't even be able to understand how you fucked up.
Okay, one thing has bugged me about Salia being interested in magical girl anime. I know that it's because her voice actress was a Pretty Cure or something (never watched it so I don't know the official term) but...why aren't Ange and Hilda into magical girl anime, since they're voiced by Nana Mizuki and Yukari Tamura? Hell, I'm still certain that's the entire reason the two end up loving each other, least in V. Not sure how it went in Cross Ange, but after V, I need something like Might Gaine to help me through it.

I'm pretty sure Cross Ange ends with just Ange and Tusk since even in V after Hilda's confession it never really comes up again while Tusk keeps playing a love interest role in later cutscenes.

Having not seen the show though, that's mostly conjecture. Trying to reverse engineer what actually happened in a lot of these shows is fun since I've seen literally none of them except Eva.

Pretty Cure's a bigger deal, I suppose. (Ignore that Nana's also been a Pretty Cure)

Besides, Yukari was a French Giant Robot long before she was a magical girl. And has probably been in more Mechas than Magical Girls.

I wish they would bring back TV Eva, or just mix it into Rebuild and just end on End of Evangelion so Komm, süsser Tod can be included in the game again and I don't feel like I'm just forcing it in there. (I made it the background music for the first objective of Wake up, Time to Die and then for Come the Messenger).

We could also have then have the original Sixth angel and have a water level for Getter 3 to shine.

Also, do Misato and Mao ever go drinking together? Felt like that was missing in Z3 and it's missing in this one too.

That was my idea for how to handle Rebuild, only use the first two movies then fill in the rest using stuff from the show that got skipped over and End of Evangelion(one of the fun parts was thinking up what stuff would be added to the UN strike force attacking NERV, since I had Sym-Bionic Titan on my series list, it made perfect sense to have The HMER be part of it)

Right, how do you do this again? I saw instructions saying to put a folder named SRWMUSIC on a thumbdrive, and then import them into the game, but my attempt to put the AP version of You get the burning in didn't detect anything. But now I want to do that as well, and stick a magical girl-esq track on Salia (and possibly others). The last one I feel actually fits SRW pretty well as a theme.

Last thing I remember in the game was Tusk and Hilda bickering over her post-confession and I got the sense that the game was trying to posit them as rivals on equal standing.

So, finally on the True Route, just got Full Frontal, and went to upgrade him so he's on par with everyone else.

And the Neo Zeong has like 180 Mobility.

That's about the same as any of the Gundams.

Except the Neo Zeong is 2L. And Full Frontal comes with 3 loving ranks of Ignore Size, and about the same Evade as a normal gundam pilot.

So this battleship sized Mobile Armor is going to dodge about as well as a gundam.

Or it was, until I slapped on three Haros and upgraded Full Frontal's Space rank to S because I could. Plus his Ace Bonus gives him level 9 Newtype, which literally no one (at least for me) has gotten. Now it's going to be a Godzilla sized robot that dodges literally everything.

Full Frontal where have you been all game :allears:
