/bag/, what did we learn from the previous thread?

>>546500591
That Mika is sexy cute

Apparently john cena likes blue archive, cause he follows random ba twitter accounts like that_one_artist. Actually he follows a few loli vtubers as well now that I think of it.

>>546500567
I can't believe Deadpool was a nigger this entire time

>>546500664
>that_one_artist
there's a lot of BA fanartists, that doesn't narrow it down at all

Hina should hug me

Remember that time Millennium got a summer event

Yata yata tata!
It is good day to be not raped

>>546500367 (OP)
they're so cool bros, if only be a bitch wasn't there

>>546500772
>Millennium
doesn't deserve a summer event, they're all gross nerds with flabby unsexy bodies

>>546500521
They're fighting over who gets my dick first and they're kissing each other on top of me while I'm fucking one and the other is on top of my face.

Remember that time baggots thought 2025 was going to be Millennium's year

>>546500932
Sounds like fake news

>>546500591
anon is cockcage'd by his older sister

>>546500932
2026 will be

>>546500751
That's the guys actual twitter handle.

>>546500932
Millennium's year was 2022

I don't want a BA plushie because I would try to have sex with it

Next fes should be Gehenna, dress Iroha, dress Iori, dress Megu. To begin the Gehenna volume as well.

>>546500932
Actually 2000 was the year of the Millennium

>>546500932
>Deca story
>Deca pv
Yeah, and they were right...

>>546501147
s-soon...

I hope they make them super meta so that ruin a lot of people's plans.

>>546501147
Shat did she do to deserve to be imprisoned?

>>546501147
Now that's what I call a stacy gun

>>546501089
There's a porn vtuber that has a plushie that's almost exactly like the blue archive ones but with a hole on the bottom for an onahole. Hell it might be made by the same company honestly they're hella similar.

>>546501131
>deca story
Not even a whole chapter got released this year.
>deca pv
And what else except for baseball event and fes where the protagonist was from Trinity?

>>546501131
>trinity gets more story

>>546501147
Soon

>>546501107
>Another gehennafes

>>546500860

>>546501237
She killed millions

We hate Gehenna here.

I don't remember red iori and dog girl being in the same club
Also a random nun being in the club

>Most popular school gets most content
Wow, who could have seen this coming?

>>546501371
Yes, end of sabotage, beginning of a golden age.

>>546501237
>Shat did she

BWEEEEEEEEEEH

>>546501537
its funny how much crap is because people can't cope with their favourites not actually being the favourites of the wider fanbase

>>546501315
It feels like there's something wrong with how reisa addressed Kazusa. Characters are particular about how they refer to each other in Japanese media

>>546501032
What is with /bag/ and older sisters? I still remember the one who mentioned his older sister raping him because she caught him trying to hurt himself

>doubling down on making sure that there's only one popular school
No amount of rabid mikafags on jp are going to convince me to like their school.

>>546501691
Students that would do this?

b-but Gehenna is the most popular school... bweeh...

>>546501691
for me it's little sister

>>546501537
Controversial fact: this is a red Winter event, the only new characters are red Winter
It just uses trinity as a backdrop because people like trinity and the writer probably thought of a funny way to use koharu or hanako

coom in doom
rope in hope

basically, I want to accept Atsuko's offer to teach her how babies are made

>>546501841
Watch them introduce a new character from Trinity which has an unpleasant passion for books
that isn't Ui

>>546501760
This should explain why it's not as funny to do a smut peddling event with Gehenna

https://youtu.be/_SQDB7c9lLM?si=VCZCyyB4dgKtH4gm

>>546501821
We're the ol' reliable scapegoat

>>546501739
Sounds like Noa.

>>546501906
I miss my Gematria niggas like you wouldn't believe. Are they ever coming back?

>>546501974
Off-model.

>>546501841
>let's make every future event and story orbit around Trinity
I didn't install Trinity Archive.

>>546502007
Trinity is also the only school with a library

>>546501841
>the only way Red Winter can sell is by using Trinity
Kek Flop Winter keeps flopping

>>546502007
maybe that's the best way they found to give us Shimiko's alt early

I miss Golconde

>>546502007
Shimiko already forgotten again.

>>546501128
Chise you're...

>>546502220
>>546502193

>>546502007
Uhhh, Shamiko?

Shimiko will get 2 alts before Iroha gets a single one.

>>546501035
I don't know what I'm looking at

I got bored so I started counting all the events from 2024 and 2025. Events with split school interaction will be split 50/50, and that's me being extremely generous here cause can you really call Code Box a Trinity Event when it was just Seia?

Reruns will not count.

2024:
- 2.5 Gehenna
- 0.5 Hyakko
- 2 Trinity
- 1 Valk
- 1 Arius
- 0.5 RW
- 1.5 Shanhajing
- 1 Millennium
=> For a total of 10 new events.

2025:
- 3 Trinity (0.5 from Code Box, 0.5 from RW)
- 1 Gehenna
- 1.5 Millenninum
- 1 Highlander
- 1 Hyakko
- 2 Wild Punch
- 0.5 RW
- 1 for whatever new event next month
=> For a total of 11 new events

So in conclusion, unless Trinity gets ANOTHER event next month, they only edge out of Gehenna by 0.5 of an event.

Take that for what you will.

>>546502148
Holy shit, dude, play the GAME

>>546502220
>meek unassuming girl is actually an overly efficient speedreader, bingewatcher, and can sew her own clothes
>also has gorilla strength
>15 years old
miss me with that thinly veiled shimikowank

>>546502368
tl;dr edging to gehenna...........

>>546501315
That's not Ako

>>546502472
15 years old btw

Again. I only care about my Students, not whatever School they belong to.

>>546502368
Um.... Gehennasisters? Our narrative?

>>546502472
This pic makes me want to get horny but then I get reminded of the smell and then I get even more horny

>>546502368
new shitposting material dropped

>>546500573
It's amazing how blatant they were were with that angle too. How can you hate Gematria after banishing Beatrice?

>n-n-NOOOOO nobody wants other schools!!!!
Part of Blue Archive's biggest appeal is the variety of great characters.

Do we like Saki now?

>>546502696
Saki's my buddy, and always been the best rabbit.

>>546502368
b-b-b-b-but the sabotage

>>546502682
>Make a red Winter event
>People hate it for insane reasons like usual
As expected
Another reason to not have another red Winter event for another six years

>>546502696
I would never ignore my buddy.

>>546502682
Schools aren't characters

I wouldn't mind Trinity if they focused on the good girls and not M*ka.

>>546502787
>the best rabbit
I'm pretty sure that's Moe

>>546502840
Schools include students.

>>546502368
Ok, now let's list those events
Gehenna:
>Hinafes
>PS68
>Guide event
>Fucking Pancake event
Trinity:
>bASS (limited)
>Idols (limited)
>Code Box (event protagonist)
>Summer fes
>Magical girls (limited)
See the difference?

I can't post a pic of Toki because she's so sexy she would make anyone who looked at her instantly ejaculate

>>546502840
you weren't meant to say that

Behold

>>546502919
yeah the Gehenna events are much better. Gehenna wins again

>>546502919
>Suddenly the issue isnt the number of events but he's angry that trinity events are better written
Too obvious

>>546502941
TRVE

>>546502368
Disingenuous in many ways, but you're also pretending them getting multiple bluefes events and almost every limited event doesn't count.

>>546501537
...Are they?

I actually wonder what is the most popular school in terms of general like, fanart mass. It would make sense if it was Trinity I guess because they literally have the most students, but I feel like Millennium's no slouch

Post "that" image

but no one bat an eye when mine got wanked

>>546503031
I came.

>>546503019
It's both. Is it so hard to imagine? Also
>3.5 to 5
>see, only by 0.5 of an event
Holy basic maths.

>>546503005
sex

>>546502848
Mika only had cameo appearances for over 2 years until 4.5 FES

>>546501841
I think it's much simpler than that. PV5 was heavily about the Trinity Culture Festival, and we've had multiple events at this point that have ridden off of that concept.

Once again it was foreshadowed

>>546503152
Good.

>>546503152
>replying to bait

>>546503019
They get more effort because they're limited events. They're not better written either, in fact they've gotten quite repetitive.

>>546502007
Who, Shimiko?

>>546503130
Your what?

>>546503214
DELETE THIS NOWWWWWW

>>546502368
Pancake event doesn't count, minus 1 from Gehenna

My first insane. Homete, homete

>>546503318
>pancake event so bad it's a -1
Grim

>>546503214
Rei bros?

>>546503019
No people have been (understandably) bringing up how limiteds are with Trinity often for the last 2 threads

>>546502368
>Not counting 4 chapters of volume 3 and half of volume 6
Thanks disingenuousbro

>>546503350
GUH

>>546503214
>shipping

>>546503238
>The event has a limited character in it so I'll claim that means it's a super limited event compared to the non shiny Gehenna shitty event
Too obvious
A character being limited doesn't make them better, band event is proof of that
Having a limited character doesn't make the event "more special"

>>546502368
He's in damage repair mode for his narrative because of this lol

>>546503238
>They get more effort because they're limited events
not really, the idol event is one of the worst events in the game, and Code Box isn't really that great either

the only good events you listed there were the band event and the tea party one

>metroid prime 4 has forced companions, escort missions, and MCU-tier cringe writing
It's not fair bros

The real truth nuke nobody wants to hear is that the only bad events are the Shanhaijing events.

>>546502368
I think we need a new Wildhunt event for Christmas

>They're going to be selling the 3P yuri party doujinshi at Trinity itself
How will Meru get away with this?

>>546503353
good job, anon

>>546503703
Gehenna will get the Christmas event.

What did you learn from this thread?

Engaging people about their insane bias or hatred will never talk them out of their bias, it'll just embolden them so they never shut up about it since they're getting attention now. The entire thread is now them bitching about it because people thought they could reason with them.
Whenever they start crying about trinity ignore them. Last month they were crying about Wildhunt wank. They'll cry no matter what school shows up.

>>546503439
Band event was limited and had way more story. They obviously put more effort into it, not from good writing but from the minigame and purposefully including more story.
>>546503468
They still had a large amount of effort in the sense they had afterstories or high effort minigames.

>>546503353
or else

your lunch is ready

>>546503597
I only ever played Super Metroid and Prime 2

>>546503720
>Makoto x Hasumi
Meru is retarded

>>546503353
Woah, that's Insane

What's her appeal?

>>546502368
>- 3 Trinity
>- 1 Gehenna
>- 1.5 Millenninum
>- 1 Highlander
>- 1 Hyakko
>- 2 Wild Punch
>- 0.5 RW
Yeah this is too much
At least 1 more Gehenna and 1 more millennium before the year ends to make it at least close

>>546503654
I liked the recently archived one.

>>546503720
>Makoto x Hasumi
Meru is fucking based

>>546503893

>>546503893

>>546503720
Modern otaku genuinely cannot handle jokes like this anymore. It's clearly just a laugh, and even /bag/ will kvetch.

No wonder nobody likes Meru...

>>546503720
How hard is Nexon going to whitewash her like they did with Saya

>>546503720
Nagisa's THICK futa cock

>>546503214
The lesson the devs had to learn the hard way in this game

If you're going to introduce a shipping character, you HAVE to create a fictional story and fictional characters she's shipping together. Do not have her shipping the actual characters in the story and creating yuri for them unless you want her hated forever

>>546503597
So just like Prime 3
Prime 3 is my favorite so I am fine with this

>>546503353
*smooch*

>>546503439
>A character being limited doesn't make them better, band event is proof of that
>Having a limited character doesn't make the event "more special"
...uhhh

>Magical Trinity
got a new song and a music video
>Trinity summer 3
got a new song and a music video as well as a new minigame
>Highlander event
got a new song and a music video as well as a new minigame
>Idols event
got a new song and a music video
>Arius summer
got a new song and a music video as well as a new minigame
>ASS Band
got a new song and a music video as well as a new minigame

Conversely
>every non-limited event
Got none of these things in the past 2 years EXCEPT for JUST ONE

Maid Gamers got a new minigame which was rad as fuck

>>546503214
Who the hell is charles

>>546503986
Just goes to show how obnoxious those people have become over the years, no?

>>546503468
>Code Box isn't really that great either
wtf

>>546504029
>creating fictional characters within a fictional setting for a one-off joke
That's dumb, Meru's gimmick only works by being a weirdo

>>546503468
>the idol event is one of the worst events in the game
yes
>and Code Box isn't really that great either
no

>>546504001
I love Meru
>>546504161
why is she eating anal beads?

>>546503986
The real issue is that it attracts yuritards.

>>546503720
by being the lovable scamp that she is

>>546504137
Prime 3 didn't have any of that though

>>546504010
She will make a public statement that her yuri-implication comments in the past were a grave error, visibly turning to the camera before deep bowing. And then all will be bing chilling, and they can release her onsen alt.

The only way I can see them winning back Japan's favor is a Gehenna year

>>546503760
>>546503890
thanks
>>546504138
smooch while you can, I'll be level 90 soon!
>>546503840
nothing, I'll just feel less proud of myself. Like a kid who's drawing didn't make it onto the fridge

>>546504010
consider reading her momotalks

>>546504152
I forgot to mention Code:Box because I was thinking about new songs, but Code:Box was obviously stupidly high effort

>>546504353
Last year was a Gehenna year and it was the worst year this game has ever seen

My god the RW event is going to be trash by the mere virtue of Meru yapping about yuri shipping
Do it, Meru. Crash the numbers! Yes!

Soda won

what the heck is this new captcha?!

i have gehenna fatigue

I swear the people complaining about muh Trinitywank have got to be the most obnoxious posters in this place after the monkey

>>546504461

>>546504523
After vol1ch3, it's for the best.

>>546504575
I wanna have sex with Kei forma de robot

>>546503802
And the unfortunate fact, they champion "I just want all schools to be equal" but what they really mean is "I'm angry my school isn't getting more content"

>>546504492
Not nearly as much as this year was a Trinity year. High effort Gehenna events are our only hope.

sexy seia

Where do I find a gf like Miyo?

>>546504615
>most obnoxious posters
the competition is very fierce in this category.

>>546504413
>>>546503840
Nah congrats. You didn't get the joke

Kneel.

Pirate School when?

>>546504523
Hoshino sex

has anything cool happened in the last 18 hours?

Next will be new students, alts included obviously, and counting.

2024:
- Gehenna: 10 new students
- Hyakko: 2
- Trinity: 6
- Millennium: 4
- Valk: 3
- Arius: 3
- RW: 2
- Shanhajing: 2
Total: 32 new """students"""

2025 (So far):
- Trinity: 10
- Millennium: 7
- Gehenna: 3
- Hyakko: 6
- Arius: 3
- Wild Cunts: 5
- Highlander: 3
- 2 new students from the RW event, but not conclusive on who yet.
Total (So far): 39 """new""" students. Will have to wait for the rerun + new event in the following month for additional data.

Once again, take that for what you will.

Wait, I just realized that this is the Irohaschizo. I will now no longer engage.

>>546504681
I only want blue archive to better appeal to its strengths and fans than it is now. There's more than one school in it.

>>546504523
>no one even remembers Abydos
My wife is from Abydos.

>>546504243
>All girls in blue archive should be gay and shipped together
Okay Juan
Either you're new or you're in bad faith

There's a reason meru used to be insanely hated until they fixed her in a later event by creating a fictional story that she could ship with, and stopped her from shipping named characters entirely and upping the amount of yuri art in the game by 10x by just existing
The existence of a yurifags character who ships actual named characters in the game, is it massively increases the yuri art in the game by just the fact of her existing
They literally had to retcon that character trait just to make her barely not hated anymore

>>546504791
list them

>>546504152
I just remembered that when they immortalized the Maid GDD event, they didn't immortalize the minigame, and I got sad again

>>546504892
Cherino's pubestache...

>>546504523
I remember wolf sex

>>546505049
me!

>>546504029
Meru isn't hated forever though, Meru's real flaw is that her character design is rather messy.

After all, Takane is a fan of Meru's work and Takane is popular.

>>546505006
>The existence of a yurifags character who ships actual named characters in the game, is it massively increases
You call me Juan and yet you type like an ESL monkey. Try calming down before posting.

>>546504893
When Odyssey gets introduced properly

>>546504940
Obsessed, meds.

>>546505006
And we still hate her

>>546505005
lucky anon, give her at least a football team of pups, she deserves it.

>>546504927
I forgot about Abydos and Moe somehow, so 2024 got a total of 36 students.

>>546504948
Even if it was an issue, the fact of the matter is that after this Trinity will kinda have no more chances to show up for a good while. V6 is done, they got two events recently, this one likely is only taking place in Trinity so we can see Koharu in her natural habitat
By the way, I'm calling it, Casual Koharu for the rerun bait

I'm thinking 3x auto GA this time bros

>>546504927
Suou (Unretarded) soon...

Would you...?

>>546505226
>her character design is rather messy.
how so? I think she's cute

the thing is if you get called brown out of nowhere you can most definitely expect the said poster to be at least #cf8e55

>>546505606
Would

>>546505571
You say that like they can't do more trinity event spam. They always got the limited events and a whole new volume. Trinity shouldn't have had more chances to show up after fes and v6 but here we are with two more.

>>546505606
would i what

>>546505717
i dunno anon, have yet to see a reply telling me to kys or something

>>546505596
Why is her name like that? What the fuck is a Suou?

>>546504307
Code Box is mid as hell thanks to Neru

Please give thanks to pic related for saving blue archive

>>546505820
Suou shit she almost killed the game.

>>546505380
I'm working on it.

This might just be the saddest insane clear I've ever done, but I don't care, I finished it.
Purple is a lost cause though.

Look at this cute hag

>>546505717
Anyone who pulls the race card automatically loses. At least wait until you won the argument before having a melty.

>>546506131
her name is Jambalaya

>>546505661
Well if it was good, she'd definitely get more fanart. Like compare her to Kaede who has a similar build and bodytype.

I would say she's very..."scrunched up", and the mega ahoge is bizarre. Has a bit of a "vtuber"ish look with the accessories? I feel like her design doesn't have a wide appeal.

Granted, Kaede has appeared more than Meru and also personality is a noteworthy factor (and Kaede is generally pretty easy to like compared to Meru, who can be harsh)

>>546502814
I'm just happy to have Red Winter girls do something without Cherino's involvement.

>>546506134
you literally could've done it with only your 3rd team kek

Wakamo Status?

>>546505006
>The existence of a yurifags character who ships actual named characters in the game, is it massively increases the yuri art in the game by just the fact of her existing
It reminds me that every time there's a Uma x Uma vs. Uma x Trainer drama in the Umamusume community, they always use the existence of Agnes Digital to say, “Agnes Digital exists, which means that the developers only want U x U and not U x T.”

Behold, anon

This is hard subbed not autosubbed, so somebody has translated this. Select CC to turn on subs and select the Japanese subtitle track (or Chinese, but I am assuming Japanese is a bit easier to translate from. I could be wrong). Then open settings > subtitles > autotranslate

>>546506134
You don't have Kisaki and dAru?

>>546506650
got a little chub seeing that

>>546506212
>and the mega ahoge is bizarre
I'd say that's the only part I don't really like, but the rest of her is fine? her design isn't as revealing/sexy as Kaede's (which is ironic considering she's a giga gooner kek) but it kinda makes sense since she's from RW and it's cold as fuck there, that's why she's wearing clothes that cover her and that huge coat on top of that. also not that uncommon for students to have accessories in her design, like her drawing tablet and bag (the bag could've been another color that suits her better I guess). she's still far from ugly though, and that big forehead is very smoochable
Kaede's more cutesy/appealing in a traditional sense and miko clothes are usually well liked, so are thighhighs, so it makes sense she gets more art

>>546505870
thank you, miyo

>>546506802

HNNNNGGGGG

Which option would you pick?

>>546506173
There's a difference between "you're of that race that i dislike, as a fact -> i dislike you" and "i dislike what you said -> you must be of that race i dislike". The latter is always a massive retard flag.

>>546506985

Oh, I didn't notice. Thanks.

>>546506985
Headpats. I'm not loose enough to put my hands around a student's waist before we start dating.

>>546506843
Well I don't think people outright dislike her or anything on the whole (a lot of people hate her on /bag/ though). She's just a bit of a strange character in the grand scheme.
Oh also her voice is on the "some will love it, some will hate it" tier along with Shizuko and Michiru (I like her voice. Her THANK YOU~~ is adorable https://static.wikitide.net/bluearchivewiki/a/ab/Meru_Battle_Buffed_1.ogg )

>>546506985
My only answer

>>546506985
obviously hands around waist then slowly moving down to her butt

>>546505870
thank you Eri's boobies

you should actually be bothered by Red winter events not even taking place at their own school anymore lmao

>>546504029
>a single digit number of autists in an outlying niche of the western fanbase throw tantrums at the double digit number of people in their threads

>>546506948

>>546507360
What is there to do in Red Winter without Cherino somehow ruining it?

>>546507151
fair warning that sometimes autotl subs get weird and will "hitch up", but hopefully this is at least enough

>>546506985
Hands around waist sounds good

>>546506985
Hands around her boobs.

>>546506985
Waist is going to lead to a kiss and probably sex so that one

>>546506985
Combo

What are the chances that the author behind the smut books Koharu likes is revealed since she's from Trinity apparently?

>>546507360

I don't like Toki at all, I just don't get the hype

>RW students

>>546507360
Cherino would never allow something like comiket on her campus

>>546507562
I can see Shiroko (Fluffball)'s assohole......

>>546507228
I love her voice too, I think it sounds cute, but it's also probably easier to appreciate than Shizuko's I'd say
>She's just a bit of a strange character in the grand scheme
there's more students than her who are like that. most of them (like Alice for example) are universally well liked, though they're strange in a different way
man I just wish I had her

>>546504161
Suspicious thumbnail

>>546507720
why don't you like her

Toki's appeal is that she has no filter, she's attractive, and she's a weirdo/brat.
I was worried she'd be the somewhat generic "I am a perfect maid, I always do maid things correctly" but that turns out to be something she simply says, and while she is good at being a made she's more like "an autist".

>>546507451
Well, teach me then, oldfag
>inb4 spoonfeeding

>>546506996
I'm an old /int/-/pol/fag so I'm quite familiar with the elementary deflection that happens in /bag/ from rookie debaters

deh

>>546507908
nta, but I found Toki boring pre-Dekka content. Didn't help that she never did anything with CnC post-VF which just made me annoyed with how she was being used too.

Her and Eimi have both grown into characters I love during the decca arc though. Toki in isolation / with Rio I found boring. Toki, Eimi, Himari and Sensei bouncing off each other is great though.

>>546507745
kinda based, mal is run by unironic fags anyways

Honest thoughts on Toki?

>>546508081
I particularly like that Toki is highly emotional, even on a job, and that basically when shit is really hitting the fan Neru has a cooler head than she does (similar to how Tsurugi and Hasumi work)

>>546506650
Why does she look so erotic while puking?

Maybe? I don't know. It's just a database to me, so I do think the decision is dumb,
"Contains some amount of information we don't like -> torch it" is just to me like "torching libraries". MAL does have articles, I guess, but I've never read any of them I have only ever used it to attain information

Great, I have to blow my load on Takanussy now

>>546508352

>Sensor Tower
Isn't that one of those fake revenue websites? /bag/ does not have regular "revenue" posters, it's always tourists when we get limited banners/anniversaries who bring up "sales" (nobody but Nexon/Yostar knows the sales, but nevermind that)

>>546507908
I don't really like Millennium as a whole that much, it's largely a (Me) issue. I can't get into their quirks as well as the other academies, Koyuki being the only one I actually like because she's the least Millennium out of everyone

>reason BA fandom is relatively peaceful is it lacks the dark triad that ruin every fandom; yurifags, cuckposters, and shippers. Having every girl overtly for you kinda kills them off because they can never quite get a leg to stand on here
>Omnipandering is what killed other games like Nikke and GBF, introducing yuri into a game is always the Trojan horse that kills the game since it opens up the way for all manner of shipping and gay shit. Now GBF is quite literally 70% homo shit and a non gay girl hasn't been introduced in years
>BA is good because it lacks original sin in a sense
>Avoiding something like that is key to not ending up like GBF, do not introduce yuri into your self insert story

Look man that shit didn't affect me, so who fucking cares? Especially Sensor Tower, which should be the joint enemy for ALL gacha generals by this point.

>>546506389
Third team was 4 mil short on my best run no matter what I did.
If koharu could brute force the lantern with her normal + 2x EXs through the heal down it would be easy, but she can't do that at 4 star.
Yellow was super easy but d.Hina is disadvantaged and she pairs pretty poorly with Rio and Seia... but I have nothing to replace them with.

>>546506824
I wouldn't be using this team if I did, that's for sure.

>>546508378
It has a forum attached to it, that's where the extremists lie

>>546508352
I don't think about other generals at all

>>546507745

>>546508551
>having meru say that "girls should only just love girls"
She said that? When?

Also I don't think she got retconned, pretty sure she's still a shipper after her next appearance.

I don't really care myself because Meru is a single character and I think it'd be unrealistic if there wasn't even 1 person interested in gay shipping. I don't have to like it, but it's extremely easy to ignore. BA has...is it hundreds of characters by now, or just around 100? I don't actually know

>>546504523
v1c3 can't be that freaking bad. Since I'm finally done with volume F I'm super curious now. I keep hearing how it shitted everything up for Abydos.

>>546508686
anon you don't need to bruteforce through the lantern debuff. just wait till the debuff expires and heal it to full in a single EX. that's the way I did it with an almost identical team and I had no issues beating it

>>546508352
Thank Pikaman for that award.

Is it just Hoshino having a nigger moment?

>>546508890
NTA but I didn't have any girl with heals strong enough to 1-tap the lantern.
Having to cope with 2 healers is cost and team slots not spent doing damage or buffing the DPS
I'll get past that point eventually, maybe before the next rerun.

>>546508887

>>546509192

Is that the reason why people only liked the last part with Hoshino, and pretty much all agreed to forget about literally everything else lmao.

YOU'RE SHITTING YOURSELF

>>546509338
As someone who has lost people I cared for, I can relate.

>>546508887
I have mixed feelings on it. It's not as bad as the shitposters will make it out to be and certainly has some great moments, but all the flashbacks get annoying and everything surrounding Hoshino just drag it down a lot.

>>546509373
Nah yeh...

>>546508887
Its not. It just meanders while establishing the stakes for way longer than it needed to.

>>546509272
desu when I reread it on global (when it was all out) I thought the length was pretty much perfect, but had other issues with certain aspects like status quo etc
The pacing of release was the worst shit ever.
Funnily, Volume ex has worse release pacing, but it doesn't feel as bad because they updated other volumes in the meantime

>>546509058
If by "/bag/" you mean the couple of false flaggers that are bitching about "trinity wank" at this very moment then yes "/bag/ "hates that chapter

>>546509501

>>546508887
The first half is good
The second half is genuinely complete garbage

>>546509338
I'd be more willing to buy that argument if clocknigger wasn't manipulating her the entire time.

>>546509195
>I didn't have any girl with heals strong enough to 1-tap the lantern
Koharu does it fine (with some investment), my first clear team used her. if you don't have Koharu then please get her from raid shop as soon as you can, she's very useful
if you don't have her Kokona works fine (I replaced Koharu with her on my next clears after investing in her a bit), and if you don't have Kokona either I believe Hanae or Serina (which are free so you'll have them for sure) can also do it (but it sacrifices a special slot). if she's barely not enough you can add Atsuko to your team since she's tank + healer in a single student

>>546509371
idk what you mean since it is quite entertaining through and through what with highlander hijinks, baby shiroko, and several action moments

>>546509637
He wasn't. He was manipulating Suou, yes, but we only see him prod Hoshino once. Everything else with her is organic and in-like with past actions such as her selling herself in chapter 2 or her trying to find Shiroko on her own in volume F. She is impulsive, guilt-ridden, and suicidal.

>too autistic to skip V1 Ch3

This is so fucked

>>546509726
I can't believe Sensei would whore out his students for 500 credits

>>546509037
Sensor Tower is a Terran building from the RTS videogame StarCraft 2 that reveals the presence of enemy units--sorry, students--in the fog of war in a large radius around itself.

>>546508887
It's not that bad, but surely there are lot of things that could be improved, and a lot of things need to be re-visited, if Abydos' story continued

>>546509637
Even if he wasn't a character that existed at all, it is still realistic for someone with survivor's guilt to have their mind drift back into this fixation. Loss isn't an easy thing to cope with if you're trying to do it alone, doubly so if you believe yourself to be at fault for it.
The rest of the shit that clockman did was obnoxious but all Hoshino needed to fall into despair was a small reminder, a little push.

>>546508616
she's supposed to be a pious women yet she constantly gives me sinful thoughts. When I see her the only thing on my mind is a bed breaking baby making sex

>>546509904

>>546509657
Uh huh, sure, as long as you completely ignore Suou being a retarded macguffin, Kaiser just fucking off at the end, the pointless Hinawank and the debs just keeps on going for no reason other than to keep the status quo. Oh and don't forget that Yume was written to be so utterly retarded that her death can only occurred because of how retarded it was.

Sure, as long as we just ignore the obvious problem it's the best chapter ever!

>>546509641
I have both Koharu and Kokona but neither are strong enough yet to do that, and I ran out of resources to push gear/skills any further.
Given enough time I'll get Koharu to 4* and above but my priority with raid coins is to at least GET every student and then farm as much as I'm able.

still waiting for professor smugsmug.

>>546510246
I didn't say there was nothing wrong, but you said "people only liked the last part with Hoshino, and pretty much all agreed to forget about literally everything else "
there were several parts people liked, and there are parts people did not like. Suou is actually good until the confrontation at the gun, at which point her character starts going down the toilet

>>546510582
>Shiroko just summoned Chroma then put it away
Beatrice had already summoned it + it WAS brought here by Kuroko and Phrenapates. Is it unthinkable that it would be easier to summon now? At the end of volume F, we don't banish the Color at all.
>Set just appeared out of nowhere too.
This one is more like...
"It would be nice if they foreshadowed a bit"
I think "in lore this makes perfect sense" but we are not being given the lore so it's just random events occurring.

>>546510448
I dunno what to say then, my girls aren't max level so maybe that's where the stat margins are.
With a combination of normal + EX skills and serina I managed to get my extreme clears, but I would not consider a skill combo to be "1-tapping" it. If I could have done them faster my DPS wouldn't have been on such a time crunch

>Who taught her that crap and how did she even know how to do it?
What?
Are you stupid?
It's not "her" summoning it really, the Chroma comes on its own to those that it resonates with, if we're to understand how it appeared for Kuroko.
For Kuroko, she had lost all hope and felt that life was for suffering. It showed up.
For Shiroko, she has lost all hope, and feels that she must submit herself to a greater power to resolve this. It showed up.

We also literally don't know how it works, it is described in terms that make it seem like an incomprehensible god so I don't know why you're getting fussy about the weird alien arbitrarily granting power--when it literally did that for Kuroko and Kuroko wasn't even fighting anything at the time.

An AI who initially resided within Alice, "Princess" (王女) of the Nameless Gods turned Game Development Department member. Her purpose was to "lead the Princess to her throne" and bring Kivotos to its end, but her priority is to keep the Princess safe, even if it meant sacrificing herself.

Now, she has taken the form of a robot provided by Seminar's president, Tsukatsuki Rio.

for me, it's students being silly goobers

>>546512017
She has large breasts

Which spelling is correct for her name: Kei or Key? Also, is it Alice, Aris or Arisu?

>>546510980
Go fuck your VCR and you'll understand

>>546510768
Gun knows whats up
If you don't actually care, you can't be relied on when the chips are down

>>546511565
Dumb cat should have just gotten the hint already.

>>546512027
Kei's connection with the Nameless Priests implies she could be part of The Iridescence and also responsible of her activation of the Atra-hasis Ark in one of the "bad" endings in the 4th PV.

>>546511679
there's a doujin with this setting

you know with so many student writers I wonder if we'll ever get the one behind these

>>546512065
Same, especially when they are the serious type.

>>546512209
Alice and Key, just like the companies they're named after

>>546511565
Reisa and Kazusa

it's raining outside

>>546512594
Key wouldn't make this face. she'd swallow it all with a smile on her face

Soon

>>546512689
No she wouldn't, read the story again.

>>546512375
We already know

>>546512689
The point of Kei is that she would NOT

>>546512749
also soon

You wouldn't fuck a shupo, would you

>finally finished all my available momotalk
I'm ready to spark for Yukari and Kikyou next week, I'm ready to drop a spark for Seia and Hasumi, and still have a spark for Bluefes.

>>546512963
of course not. I would fuck both together, not just one

>>546512980
>lvl 90
>still has the Hina guide task
lmao

>>546512980
Didn't Ass

>>546512980
Erobeat sensei...

>>546513113
NTA but it's not really worth it.

I can't really think of Key as a girl. Feels like more of a sexless consciousness in a body of a girl.

>>546512980
>all those red dots

>>546512980
you are BRICKED

>>546511739
BASED

>>546512963
I would fuck Nozomi silly.

>>546513198
>sexless

Babu gato.

>>546512980
>400M credits
Level your fucking students.
>b-but they're not meta
DOESN'T MATTER.

Nozomi sat next to me

Hello?

>>546513540
Hey

Students that would reply 'Based' to themselves on the internet when no one else responds to them?

I'm almost ready for fes.

>>546512935
no...

>wake up from NEET slumber
>new RW event coming
based

>>546513514
Nozomi sat on me.

>>546513624
omg Ibuki hi!

Oh god...Mutsuki...keep squeezing me...ah...yes...just like that.....

>>546511791
This. I like seeing the actual shape more.

Kissing Kei, sloppy kissing with Kei, locking tongues with Kei

>>546512443

>>546513113

>t. have a year 1 jp account and still have hina guide tasks unfinished

>>546514056
I'm more of an Adidas person

>>546511371
The damage debuff against higher level boss is less of a concern when the DPS is borrowed and obviously maxed, rest of the team is largely to do the rest of the raid mechanics and support that DPS.
Maybe I'll be level 90 by the next time heiro gets rerun, 5 months should be enough time right?

>>546513113
I'm intentionally keeping it there but I like looking at that massive 5head every time I open the game

>>546514325
>5 months should be enough time right?
took me less than that from level 1 so yeah, unless you don't play every day

>>546514274
Dude, get with the program

Why is /bag/ going nuts for Key again?

>>546514492
What are you, gay?

>>546514492
It's Kei

>>546514492
>post key
>get sexo
Especially that condom pic

>>546514475
I'll do it eventually. After I've caught up with my 300+ unread momos

my princesswife Mika

I believe that Kokona is the best design in the game, aesthetically speaking.

>>546514771
Barely anybody bonded her to 100.
Kokona only has her design and that's it.

can winged students lay eggs?

>>546514908
I bonded her to 50, she’s very cute.

>>546512017
tent, and many agree https://x.com/karashi_bread/status/1989283169758257278

>>546515126
Do winged students have cloacas?

we need more dragons in the game
