So much better than Erin it's crazy.

Edit: Not crazy because that's a low bar.

Hot take: She's good, because she's copying Erin, who is the perfect Noire, just like how new Vert is copying Tara Platt's Vert very well.

Yeah. There's something about their extremely goofy acting that brings more life to the games than the pretty typical Japanese acting.

I'll have you know I played through the first game on PlayStation 3 twice.

That isn't me bragging, I did that to see how different they were. The Japanese version lacked the best jokes.

It's the only truly bad Nep of the mainline Neps.

Yes. Although after a while I did discover I could just change the language and watch the cutscenes back in Japanese after, but I wanted to hear all the 5pb dialog we were denied too.

That sounds weird, but it's sitting in my backlog stack too. I'm curious what they did now...

If you actually want to know:

The game's time travel mechanic lets you pick one quest at a time. Whenever it ends, be it by you abandoning it or completing it, time moves by one unit. At a certain point, you're forced to eat a loss because you have too many quests to do without enough time. This will introduce the Time Eater into the library and you a) have to choose what buff it gets for eating a quest, and b) die to it, restarting the game.

You are then at the opening again with both of your protags and Nep aware they just time-looped and being aware the Time Eater is in the library. All the quests you did are done, everything eaten returns, and you now get to revisit destroyed timelines and further alternate plots. It looks like creating loops intentionally may be a mechanic any time you're eating poo poo or running low.

Reading this just encouraged me to buy it.

Related, on the Humble Bundle Store SeHa is on sale for roughly 15 bucks. I don't know exactly how much but it is on sale.

I am actually proud of these writers for the slow burn reveal of time being broken and how it relates to Nepgear.
