Hwurmp posted:e: alright that Whole New World thing is going to bug the piss out of me until I know the answer. Do you mean Seething Ardor, from the epilogue? That one bit at 1:20 sounds kind of like the "Tell me Princess, now when did you last let your heart decide" line. Yes, it was in fact Seething Ardor, and the middle bridge of the song DOES indeed sound like A Whole New World.

So you questioned what kind of booster seat Towa had to be sitting on in that car... Well, at ~4:58 it DOES look like her seat is in fact higher up than Mitsuki's. At least to me. So yeah, a booster seat built right into the car apparently. But that then just raises the question of how she reaches the pedals..... Custom longer pedals?

She probably has a pair of tengu geta she puts on to reach the pedals, then. Also, is it me or is Rion's "running" speed very slow for someone who's literally flying? It looked like Asuka was quite a bit faster.

Towa's had a Soul Device this whole time and it's a pair of big ol' stompy greaves

Glessing way does sound a lot like the X vs Zero theme from x5 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_dD0uOmcJmQ&t=88s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l_NRP3fLh1g&t=48s Timestamped to the similar sounding parts.

Huh. If I didn’t pick up that incredibly similar riff towards the end of the song, I don’t think I’d have said the two sounded similar at all.

Glessing way just has a Megaman X feel. Its all in those synths.

Part 65: Relationship Goals We're off to Chapter 7, and now that we have a full party, we can finally put the game's focus on the characters that really matter. That's right, it's time for a chapter about... *checks notes* Shiori.

If you talk to the 3rd year who runs the Kendo club on this chapter's free day (he'll be standing next to Ryouta), he says Ryouta is actually pretty skilled at Kendo.

Just you wait, when all hope is lost right at the end of the game, Ryouta will get his big hero moment and save the whole gang. You're gonna love his soul device, it's the coolest one yet.

At least this is confirmation that they actually physically enter the Eclipse, rather than it being all astral projection dreamspace bullshit, which is more than say Persona 5 ever explicitly gives you.

We knew that as far back as chapter 3 though. Hell, when the crew gets pushed into the Elcipse by Aki in Houraichou, they come out of it in the middle of Morimiya Park after they beat the boss, and they're on opposite ends of the city. If it was just dream space or a hallucination I don't think that kind of travel would be possible.

"Building's on fire? Must be an Eclipse!" Well, the guy just said that the fire (A)started without an apparent cause, (B)is in a place where there's nothing to fuel it, and (C)it isn't reacting to fire extinguishers. So yes, at that point, given that they were in the district at all because the Eclipse predictor said an Eclipse would be there, and given the group's experience with the supernatural, checking for Eclipses is a reasonable next step in deciding what to do. If the complaint is that the teenagers, who are only really equipped to deal with Eclipse stuff, keep running into Eclipse stuff, I don't really understand the complaint. Of course they don't show them trying to handle non-Eclipse stuff, because for those cases, they're as useless as any ordinary high school students. - I'm not sure how well firefighters would be able to handle a fire which defies the laws of physics. - Did... did you really WANT to see three different sites of frozen water pipes? Because it doesn't sound all that exciting. I would have thought the fewer boring things the game wastes your time showing, the better.

I would have thought the fewer boring things the game wastes your time showing, the better. I'm honestly surprised they didn't go for three ice physics block pushing puzzle eclipses. Each with a slightly different ice themed elder greed. One shoots ice stalagmites up at you from the floor, one uses flying chunks of ice and the third rains stalactites on you. Then they combine and do all at the same time.

I'm fairly sure that in Cold Steel's swimming, different opponents are indeed easier or harder, so I expect that to be the same here... but that usually only really ends up being the difference between winning by a touch or winning by a length - just as long as you don't flub a press near the end and lose speed.

There is a different blonde-haired girl at school who is the daughter of one of the people who runs a shop in the mall. Absolutely could not tell you her name off the top of my head but she's the one that uses kinda broken English as a localization for her lovely japanese in the original text.

- I think that she must have fallen in recently, given how fresh everyone's memories were. At no point did Kou ask them if they'd seen her two weeks ago, and no one said that they last saw her two weeks ago. Perhaps something was missing from the localization or mistranslated which would have indicated that she was missing very recently. - Time inside an Eclipse can indeed get wonky. - I like the use of Fukkleducks as a way to invoke the suggestion of "gently caress" without getting the game into trouble with the ratings board. - I dunno about Kou using testing the boats as an excuse to have a romantic ride with Mitsuki. Kou doesn't really have much guile, and he's generally been blunt at shutting down any attempts to pair him with other people.
