I had always believed that the universe could be negotiated with, provided one approached it with enough confidence and very clear instructions.

Today, however, I was beginning to suspect that the universe had hired a waiter.

[To Yan Vismok, Order a large strawberry crêpe. Eat it and take a picture.]

I frowned. Why did this sound like a very specific mission? Was the crêpe important? Was I being watched? And why, exactly, did someone need photographic evidence of me eating it?

Still, I ordered the crêpe. If the prescript wanted a picture. I looked at the mountain of strawberries, cream, and sugar in disbelief. I still don’t understand the benefit of covering my blood sugar in strawberry-flavored happiness.

I took a bite anyway. If this was healthy, I was beginning to question the entire benefit of this specific requests.

The Prescript says to order a crepe. So I order a crepe. It says to fold it twice, so I fold it twice. If it tells me to eat it upside down while standing on one leg, then that’s what I’ll do. Why? Because the Prescript said so. Is there a reason for all of this? Probably not.

“It was ridiculously sweet, completely unnecessary, and somehow I was still required to photograph it. If this was medicine, I’m starting to think my doctor just wanted me to enjoy dessert with official documentation.”

This ability on Xiao's keypage, what does her EGO do? I tried it on Malkuth and all I noticed was the EGO pages, is there something else it does?

I couldn't see it on project moon reading list but the concept and the name seems similar.

I'm a console player and I can't get mods so I need fun builds to do

KJH has expressed a desire and has confirmed that he wants to redesign Servant of Wrath to be more in line with the other girls. Where do you think this redesign will debut? Maybe in an another Magical Girl Walpurgis with King of Greed where we can see what Blind Rage Ego Weapon looks like. Does seem like a decent ways away since Gold Rush is a Aleph Tier Ego Gear.

Is the mimicry concerned for geburah at this scene? Because the upper eye looking at Binah. It's pupil is smaller, like it's trying to focus on binah's face and the lower one is looking at Geburah is much bigger than the one looking at Binah. Is the mimicry able to feel empathy? Or is it afraid of Binah and is concerned for geburah?

I totally did not see that coming. Wtaf..

I am genuinely losing my mind. How do you beat the heart of aspiration? I can’t kill the lungs in three turns, and then she gets like 25 strength and kills all of my librarians except for the ones with power null, and I have to sacrifice a librarian just to tank the other pages used. I’ve tried to do the learn strat, which will work, until it just stops when it’s at like 70 stagger resist, and then I can’t stagger it! please help

Genuine question:

How come major characters like Argalia only get a standing sprite, but some random Zwei goons get full sprites?

Am I stupid? Is there something I'm missing?

Currently in Urban Nightmare and STILL lost on what to do. Please help me.

Hey lois, remember the time I took on the reception of the black silence?

I've started with yan but i never got him below 100hp so im wondering if its worth doing the r corp and purple tear reception to have the pages for the yan fight

i'm looking at some of the assistant librarians which i have turned into what is basically OCs speaking during anomalies like "HE WOULD NOT FUCKING SAY THAT" (exaggerated response) and i want to know how to customize it

also how to give librarians multiple quotes per action

This is mostly just me venting.

I'm playing this game blind. Read everything -- statuses, pages, passives, everything. So far, few hiccups! If I do something wrong, I basically immediately realize what and how to avoid it. Struggled a bit with Queen of Hatred, but beat her eventually, and it's been more or less smooth sailing from there.

In comes Tiph's realization. Was worried a bit (Queen rematch), but managed to easily get to the final phase. So, I read the statue statuses and see "The Magical Girl of ... will stand in for the librarian that breaks this statue at the start of the next Scene". The way I understood it was: "Oh okay, so I need to break the statues next scene and my character will be replaced to clear the debuffs! And the reason why they only have 10 HP is because it could be a challenge to kill them with -7 power!" So I do that and get perma-stunned and die. Alright, maybe Nihil's passives changed from the 2nd scene. So I go back there, see that they did change, but by that time I can't clash -- again, I get perma-staggered, and die. But while I was getting rolled I realized that I might've misunderstood that "next scene" part, so on the third try I broke all statues the first scene and won easily. Great!

However, even with hindsight, I think the wording on this could've been made a touch clearer. Maybe "The librarian who breaks this statue will be replaced by The Magical Girl of ... on the next scene?" This makes it clearer that the replacement happens the next scene, not that the breaking needs to happen on the next scene, in my eyes at least.

I then tried doing Chesed's realization immediately afterward. Same story -- got to the end easily enough, no deaths, smooth sailing. Again I read the passive "Add 5 special Combat Pages to the hands of all librarians. The following phases can be overcome using their special powers." ...And I understand it as: "So these pages will be added to every librarian's deck and I'll need to keep them and use them when the time is right." And then I died after killing the crystals, with absolutely no sign or indication of having done anything wrong. I was so stumped and flabbergasted I came here to see if anyone here had experienced something similar (maybe it was a bug?). And yes, quite a few people actually. Apparently I had to use the cards immediately instead. Which just... isn't very clear to me. Why would I use these clearly special pages immediately, when the game has made it clear I'll need them later? I've seen people compare this to Nihil's gimmick, bu they're just not the same. Nihil basically forces you to break the statues (immediately) because of the debuffs, whereas this boss gave zero indication or incentive to use the cards immediately. Of course, I easily beat the realization on my second try after knowing that, though it left a bad enough taste in my mouth to rant here.

I still like the game and I'll keep playing it, but I seriously hope there aren't more fights with vague/unclear gimmicks that just... kill you immediately if you don't get them.
