Did Neku's idle animations in battle change over the course of the game? I feel like they went from just kind of standing normally to floating and having a glowing hand, but I might just be imagining that because this game was great about making you feel a transition from some chump who's just slapping things to unstoppable murder god, especially when you get some of the bullet hell pins. I think probably only Aqua from Birth By Sleep matches that, due to turning into a completely overpowered character.

Her own ambitions and desires, save for wanting to help and protect Beat. Beat's entry fee was Rhyme's memories. So basically Rhyme is the most screwed over character in video game history.

Not necessarily, Beat made it to the end of his first week and won the game, so Rhyme should get that back at least

I like to imagine Joshua is a cool enough person to give her back her memories.

On the other hand, he did want to basically kill everyone in Shibuya, so maybe not.

I just had Neku in nonstop invincibility frames with a deck full of dash attack pins and blindly dragged my stylus around on the lower screen without even looking while I focused on keeping my dumbass partner from getting killed.

i guess you can just be really loving beefy and good at the game

i went with keeping him infinitely juggled using a black planet, lefty/righty/brainy cat, some reboot reducing pin and sos setup so bottom screen stayed knocked up the entire time and top screen just dodged

it worked, at least

ok i wont lie i have a picture of it cause i was all "hey friend of mine, i beat the secret boss". this pin setup

I just received this game in the mail and I'm excited to play it. However I also purchased FFTA2 and I don't know which to play first because they both sound so awesome.

They're both very good

when you wanna go slow, FFTA2

when you wanna stick it up take it up step aside and see the world, TWEWY

I'd play TWEWY first. Mostly because it's probably my favorite DS game, but it is also something you'll get through quicker than FFTA2. That's not to say that TWEWY doesn't have a ton of post-game and replay value, but FFTA2 can devour an enormous amount of time.

But obtaining TWEWY in any fashion has marked you as a person of good taste. Enjoy, gamer.

It is super anime, but is actually pretty cool. Also don't be put off by Neku in the beginning. To explain why would be spoilers, but trust me on this one.

vvvv For JRPGs, sadly yes.
