Review each route

[Ghaleon]

ARGH ITS OVER ITS ALLLL OOOVEEERRR.

I just reached the 2nd branching point, was really looking forward to FINALLY seeing Tokimi's route (I've wanted to like 2 playthrus ago), only to realize that I'm going down Kyouko's instead because you don't #@%#@%ing get Kyouko until AFTER the route has already been decided, so much for my master plan of butchering her mind to go down Tokimi's route.. God help me if I forget to butcher her mind before the end of THIS game.

edit: At least the cooking scene with Hellion was cute <3 Hellion.

I don't get it. You get the mission after you break through the Matriarch's wall, and possibly the one before that, in which to use Kyouko's support skills to greatly lower her mind.

Ok...So I read it again: and I mis-read this:
In chapter 3 after the duel at the very end of mission 16: Yuuto must have 90 mnd.. Then Right under it mentions Kyouko's mind, I just saw the red text right below it and well, hopefully you see. But still I didn't suspect anything was wrong until I saw not 1, but 2 specific Kyouko events (bath scene, cooking scene), which really made me feel like I was suddenly going down her route.

Thanks though you may have saved me, It's normal to see those events even if you do Tokimi's route?

[Volandum]

Yes, the same events happen between the two branch points.

Finished Tokimi's route, was pretty dissapointing actually. I like her and all but her route was unsatisfying for me. I think the problem was that you never really learned much about Tokimi's history, how/why did she get TWO eternity swords (as far as Yuuto's concerned he doesn't even know she has 2 ffs), etc. I mean I was expecting to learn more about Tokimi either by discussing her past, or by having some story develop between them. But nother really ever does other than simple every day couple stuff (bath scene, little bickering, whatever). There was nothing Touching like Aeselia's visit to Tokyo, Esperia's experience with Rast, Orpha's...Well most of Orpha's route was actually pretty touching or interesting or new. It seems like the developers wanted you to think that Tokimi wasn't anything more than what you already know except for having a goofy streak.

One thing though is that the method of Yuuto falling in love with her was actually better than I expected. It wasn't just a: "oh hey, it's tokimi, thanks for saving my life!", "Yuuto, I've loved you for 1000 years, and have stayed a maiden for that long as well!", "Really? cool! *smooch".
The fact that they added an extra battle where Yuuto entrusts Tokimi to take care of his spirit squad and all makes it more believable. Still a bit fast IMO, but not totally wtf yeah right inducing. I also like Tokimi more than I did before for trying so hard to not pressure him with her own feelings towards him, goofy as she is, she's extremely strong in a moral and emotional sense, too bad REAL girls idolize models instead of people like her >=p.

lol i'm having a hard time choosing which route i'm gonna do next. Done Aselia, Tokimi and Kyouko which are my fav char. I want to do Uruka but like the guide recommend I should get Esperia and Orpha done first, which is i don't have enough motivation to get through them cuz Esperia just not my type (more like an onee-chan char) and orpha a loli...

[Ghaleon]

Well I've done Aeselia, Orpha, Esperia, Lesteena, and Tokimi... And honestly I really don't see why any one of them should be done before another other than not doing Orpha first for a very minor reason. (the people forget about eternals thing isn't really mentioned much in Orpha's route until WAY AFTER you deal with the whole concept of eternals).

You might want to try Orpha's route though, it's actually quite good, and there is NEVER anything "inappropriate" in it. Infact the most inappropriate thing with Orpha is that bathscene that you get early in the game regardless of which route you take. But then again, you don't like Esperia, so you *clearly* have no taste *looks away* >=P.

[ova]

lol come on bro
I might have a bad taste but "no taste"? auu
well, It's not like I don't like Esperia but just not the type to romance with
I like the cool, tsundere one haha

well starting Orpha route now...thx

[Occisor]

Ghaleon is right, but for the wrong reasons.
I could understand that you don't like Esperia, sadly she don't receive the love she dreserves .
But having Kyouko as one of your fav?

The ultimate proof of no taste.

[lunarium]

Drop with bashing other favorite char, there's a poll/topic for that already. Beside, it'll all boil down to my opinion/taste > yours in these kinds of argument anyway, what's the point?
*tempted to say only old man dislike Kyouko and go for Esperia*
Seriously though, If you ever do SH mode, you'll find Kyouko is like a less-ultility/more-dmg Yuuto, with the most broken stat for all non-eternal char. Don't even mention her Eternal form
