Ah poo poo, Kevin just accidentally started a war with Erika. I can practically hear her now.

: I can't believe the Septian Church stole my Tita just because they couldn't handle their nun being the cutest force in the universe! Don't worry Tita, mommy's building the biggest robot to rescue you with!

I'm almost scared of what Agates reaction is going to be when he finally meets up with Tita now. I'm half convinced he's going to start screaming as he tries to catch where Erika is about to ambush him from.

I really have no other explanation for how he keeps managing to survive the poo poo he finds himself in. Frankly his ability to survive every one of his screwups and keep on trucking is at the point where if he actually learned anything from those failures he might actually be threatening! Fortunately, y'know, Gilbert.

My personal theory is he's Campanella's pet project to see if he can't make a complete and hilarious gently caress up a viable threat, for funsies.

My backup theory is that Aidos granted him divine protection so there's always comic relief.

After having played the Cold Steel games, I can say I easily appreciate the amount of foreshadowing and little hints they drop here and there about how hosed up Erebonia is, and the kind of dude their chancellor actually is.

Well, it's part of Agate's story too. If the Ravens had come to the guild before he met Estelle and Tita, he would have probably just told them to piss off.

That's a good point, it's really a nice way of showing just how far Agate's come from when we met him originally. I'm kinda hoping we get to see Rocco and the gang as seniors in a cameo later in the series, or at least get mentioned. There's a fair chance they'll at least get the second in CS3 hopefully.

It's "(Shin) Reppa Musougeki", which if I remember translates as something like "(True) Rapid Unbeatable Attack".

Estelle is not subtle.

Subtlety is for people whose choice of weapons aren't very large sticks. This is the true reason Joshua is around, otherwise every place Estelle went to would be accompanied by explosions and ultra violence.

Oh come on, making things explode is Erika's job. Estelle doesn't have grenades.

While true, I didn't necessarily say that Estelle would be the cause of the explosions, they just have a nasty habit of following her. I mean a short list of things that have exploded around Estelle: Other peoples grenades, air ships, regular monsters, archaisms, well laid plans.

I swear, this series has a way of making me misty eyed. I really love that the game has ways of showing us just how far our cast has come from the first time we've met them, or in Joshua's case, before we even met him really. Though he still had a far way to go, he was definitely pretty far from his paranoid loner status by the time we got him in FC.

For reference, this is what a Rhinocider looks like in Cold Steel.



That's the literal definition of a thing you don't want to gently caress with.

gently caress that. Our regular criminals are already super bad, lets not forget the Cartels and whatnot. Do you really want them to be able to also throw fireballs, start tornadoes, and mindrape you into attacking your friends on top of that?

A little of Column A, a little of Column B. Take my advice and just ignore 90% of what I say, it's stupid most of the time.

I wasn't even gonna vote, but I have to for the Thing since everyone is obviously picking the wrong team.

Thing: Anelace, Renne, Tita, Ries

God that was a great ending. I'm not gonna lie, I started crying during it, these games are super well written and it's great seeing them really picking up steam on this side of the world.
