I'm playing the game, and the amount of text is huge though. Many hours of VN story (all voice acted) + long anime scenes for the main story. And then each character and each guild has multiple story segments as well. And events also have story attached.
Cygames has the money to translate this, but I can definitely see it taking a while.

e: if you are thinking about playing the japanese version, now is a very good time to start because of all the free stuff they'll be giving away for the anniversary starting this weekend.

I started playing this game when it launched in Japan and I agree that its very text heavy but in a good way. There's so much story and character development tucked away in the main quest, side quests, character stories, and event quests that you really get the feeling that Landsol is a full city with everyone having daily lives and interactions. I've set scenes to autoplay and some last 15 to 20 minutes of spoken dialogue; its insane.

There's a Youtube playlist with all the story content that's 320 hours long now

Is the gameplay standard mobile RPG stuff? Are they generous with the freebies and gacha?

Gameplay barely exists (you can burn through all of the daily stuff in 15 minutes), but there's hundreds of hours of fully voiced story.
They're super generous with free stuff.

Can I main Kokoro?

Asking the questions that really matter here.

in JP i've fielded as many as 3 kokkoro at once while maintaining a team that is viable. priconne's not like one of those min-maxing mobage where you pour exclusive stat-ups into a fav though, so you're not really going to be 'main'-ing a character

Good news

They've announced a fifth Kokkoro, so you can make a full team soon

Resurrecting this thread to talk about the anime.
It's kind of weird how the anime is trying to turn figuring out "the truth" into this great mystery, when the game explains what's going on as early as chapter 1.
And many players knew it before even starting the game, because even if they did not play the previous game (or it wouldn't have been killed off that quickly), they probably were aware that it existed and what it was about.

I also did not like how episode 3 skipped the best part about the Yunichanz Nakayoshi Bu, the nonstop banter between those 3, and only focused on Yuni instead.

Did samurai girl have an accent or something? She sounded… different, but obviously without being able to speak Japanese I can’t tell you how.

Yes, Ninon is doing the "westerner is really bad at speaking japanese" thing.

It's looking like the anime is some kind of failed timeline / loop (and likely not the first one), that will eventually lead into the story of the game.

I'm still not sure there being two evil fox ladies is supposed to be a twist (to the cast at least) or something we are just sort of expected to understand as a given.

Isn't that just because she's captured Neneka? Making copies is her thing.

That wasn't nearly as good as the equivalent scene from the game.

(Chapter 8-15 of the main story)

Good guffaw at the chuuni lady getting interrupted mid-speech, always a good laugh.

(the full song has even more of Anna getting interrupted, but I couldn't find an english subbed version)
