You don't plot against your country without being a bit paranoid. Bad personality traits crowd together on villains; ambition, pride and paranoia.

Inbetween Gloria "looking like a typical old european lady" and the depressing Darcsen looking good "because he's pale and has black hair" the character commentaries seem to still have moments, but overall it's a huge improvement over VC2.

On the other hand, old ladies who can get away with throwing all the shade are one of my favorite things ever and I hope Gloria never ever stops.
Gloria, is by far the best character and if anime had more characters like her maybe it wouldn't almost all be drek.

I would play an Alfonse spinoff game; he's replaced granny as the best character.

The tone feels so different it almost feels like it belongs in a different series.
Same series but different genres. VC2 was firmly a high-school anime, that just happened to use the VC stuff as well. This is more like the sorta war-drama VC1 was.

It's actually sort of interesting to see a Japanese interpretation of the Western stereotype of a samurai. In other words, the reason he tried to kill himself is because you were thinking "he's gonna try to kill himself, isn't he?" It's our fault, sort of.
I don't regret making those "breaks a teacup? Time to kill ones-self" not-jokes at all.

Because really, they did kill themselves over the dumbest poo poo.

I wonder if we actually do meet the brother. It would be a neat way of continuity, to meet characters mentioned but never seen in the other games. (Though whip-lady sorta is that already)
