heh
Can we get a Roland-esque meltdown where she goes around fucken
eviscerating half of the syndicate?
now that would be some fine art
Something.
Something is wrong.
I.
How is...
he
so...
how do I put this
he... how is...
I don't have the words
That's... so fuckign sweet of him
I
aw....
SO THE SINNERS DO ||READ THEIR OWN SOURCE MATERIAL||
Hearing rollex say the word "That" evoces a certain feeling
we're gonna get an intervallo where we see Kira join the LCD with Aeng-du and BHK
trust
Again
something
...
Something is wrong
WHERE THE FUCK IS KIM
We better have a oxygen-not-included esque minigame while also training KiraNKim
He... lacks ||imagination?||
Right, wait
he is always told|| what to do||
maybe he is ||broken|| in the sense that he does not know how to ||act independently||?
that he does not know how to ||be||?
do you know what Rien means, in french?
it means Nothing
oui, bien sûr
Now ask us why it’s French
ce, ce je ne sais pas
-# that, that I do not know
...
I'm just saying I can speak french
||iirc the etymology also has something to do with the ocean, whereas Roland has something to do with land?||
the connection never occured to me
I’m sure it’s just some weak tie to the Cinq Association or something
||"If you lie to me..."||
||"Yes, I will swallow a thousand needles."||
I
something is wrong
Hopw is he
still
Everything is wrong
something is wrong
........could you even.... you know.........
call... that the....
the.....
||UNSEVERING||
ROLL THE CREDITS
Whoah.
yeah btw his shit is completely fucked up
I... I gathered
is it... odd that I want to help him?
yes
oh
well, no
ah!
you'll see what I mean
What did she say about him...
||A hollow shell||, was it?
yeah
he kills with no trace of emotion
the bodies he leaves behind betray no sentiment or purpose to what he does
her face...
why is it...
hm
HAHAHAH
I don't know why that statement is so fuckign funny to me
but
"Does anyone actually live in this bullshit"
r/nursefatherlivingspaces
I dread.
I fear.

post-credits as well or
I think the funniest House of Spiders living space by far is Valencina's
what was she cooking chat
Yeah
ah-oh-wh-aw....aaawwwww
no it's mattias' for sure
||why the fuck is that meathead living among all the books||
this is just what carol's room in deltarune is gonna look like wym
||Valencina made a fucking jazz club Backrooms to live in, that's objectively hilarious||
toby fox's room design bumbo fun
Spoilers, I guess? from the announcer
but.
oh my god.

uhm.........
so............
hmmmm
What
what does
HEY
HEY
THAT'S GOING TO BE IMPORTANT LATER
I JUST
I JUST KNOW IT
pro'lly
it was already important before
it's important right now too
hermes. show me fpoon
oh yeah real
Why... is... this...
he's...
weirdly...
...wholesome?
because parenting's always easy when kids are uncomplicated to take care of at first
demanding of your attention and time, sure
but you know what the right and wrong things to do are more or less
also his specific brand of damage isn't one that applies to a literal baby
yeah
well yeah Matthias is a bad dad, not an actively malicious or resentful one
grievously bad though
it is oddly comforting to learn that ||our Faust is actually the least petty and arrogant bitch of the lot||
Honestly
if this were just the three of them
I
just
maybe
the entire situation might have not been that fucked up
admittedly
I don't know anything about raising children nor how to appropriately take care of them other than avoiding mistakes made by my own parents
but
I am fairly certain that personal adoration, genuine, though ||hollow||, care and appreciation for someone's abillities is... preferable over physical abuse and whatever the fuck more
||she was able to threaten that factory owner despite being hundreds of times slower than him||
no
trust me, no
Yes, of course it'd still be fucked up
and
I don't even know all of the story
I think if it was just these three it might actually be notably worse
what
like genuinely it would be so much worse I think
but we might have to hand it to the Dihui Star on this one
||the Dihui Star might genuinely be a contender for the least damaging parent out of the bunch I can't even fucking lie||
how does
adding
somebody who
||breaks the leg of a child at the age of 7 to forbid feeling sad|| and ||actively represses feelings of happiness|| possibly....
but just these three would honestly have a chance of making it worse
am I clear to read this?
idk why I spoilered it ngl
||no she definitely did extensive damage, but in the end she's also the only one who legitimately cared for Ryoshu in the sense of wanting her to be happy/realized at the end||
||that's kind of what I mean by least, is the thing||
||like, as much as she blamed Ryoshu for her suffering, and hated her... she also didn't want her to become like her. wanted her to be free. to be able to leave this hell behind.||
HOW
HOW
I
hm.
I suppose ||Callisto|| showiung a writhing mass of flesh to a child would be
traumatising
but at the same time, only because there is a sense of normal to compare it to
a superficial sense of intimacy, giving and pouring all of yourself... I
I suppose that is
well, bad, yes, and would lead to daddy issues most definetly
but
HOW
||like she caused Ryoshu extensive emotional harm. but also, she's the only one who pitched in to add one of the most crucial pieces of parenting that Ryoshu received from all 5 so without her the group project is an unequivocal failure||
you'll see
just keep playing
Rien gets a F(poon) at parenting in ways I cannot describe without spoiling the game
What.
bro is headed straight for Avici Naraka with Hong Lu's grandparents
What
okay well all of the nursefathers are but
yeah pro'lly
W h a t
||pretty stoked about slaughtering this sinner's family all things considered. save for one member, really||
...care?
||we actually still know very little about exactly what happened to the dihui star to get her tossed in with this stupid shit||
||it seems like Rien chose her via Prescript because she's the one who would give birth to Ryoshu. no personal failing required||
The fu-
||everyone else we have a solid explanation, or at least a clear sequence of events, for how they ended up being functionally exiled for decades to childcare duty||
it's a physical thing?
Why is
She
what the
Something is wrong.
I know i keep saying it but
but
somethign is very wrong
My face visibly fell
lock in
Oh by the nine circles of hell
don't tell me ||she forgot her own daughter|| after using her ||sword|| that much
This does not
how mysterious
OH Fu-
What?
This
I'm sorry
is that a godsdamned bar
...kind of classy
I think I like it?
||I wonder what Dondon’s like in Smokeclair’s future .||
No, no
we have... we
we've got the entire technology of the City
||I’m sure the new Manchegan family is thriving
||
Spoilers for c9 ||forming a matthias hate club after this canto. Fuck him in particular||
||truly the worst of the middle condensed into one man||
||but yeah, what can the intervallo even be after this???||
DD
||Rebuilding||
Araya much like Ryoshu herself ||appears to have been vat grown designer baby based on Dihui star||
||They were helping rebuild in the credits||
Petition for her to get the next colour title of ||red||
||And apparently ryoshu drained dihui as she grew?||
||HQ base rebuilding minigame would be fire||
Lobcorp
2!
That’s just called parenting
Alright.
If all 13 of us failed
how the
FUCK
are 3 supposed to...
oh, fucking, fine
let's read
||that was a metaphor, the Dihui Star was anxious that Ryoshu would outshine her and she'd weaken as Ryoshu got stronger||
||can't talk about dad theories if they're tube babies lol||
Ah cool was unsure how literal that was
Yeah both of them ||legit just appears to be clones||
||with all the time shit||
||"You hate time travel you hate time travel you hate time travel you hate time travel"||
Made to ||take advantage of Dihui star’s unique ability to perceive time||
Lobcorp 2, now with 10 times the ordeals
the worst has come to pass
Which is why Dihui Star is so mad
||they kidnapped her and forced to act as a mother not because of some bad thing she did but solely because of one physical trait she had||
Canto 8 and 9 really know how to keep this specific kind of horror metaphorical
Huh, does her waw ego only generate one entangled life?
Ah, corrosion
Still, this pretty obviously wants the associated id
Honestly respectable
First try baby
9-41
any tips on 9-37? i dont have amazing ids for it
Shouldntve taken it out on Ryoshu tho
Personally it'd be nicer if we had an intervello
||like, the nusefather comes in and i loose every clash and die||
but idk what it'd be beyond DD stuff
like, ive got gripper faust, fucking zweiclair and no good id for ish so i have to support somehting
A-
that's ring right
yes
for ish, i think you could borrow a zwei or hana ish
I heavily recommend hanafuda ish yeah
araya ||is like 3 announcers at once||
i kinda like this
Oh my god, shut the fuck up
You're talking with the ||Red Gaze|| of all people
do you want a cookie with that liqour? or are your self-pitying tears flavour enough for you?
my GOODNESS it is appropriate to bring a sinking team here
why jeong's office rep ish specifically?
over like
zwei ish
Boss fanart
||His majesty, the roach emperor||
||https://www.rxddit.com/r/limbuscompany/comments/1qdti0d/roach_emperor_gobdeung_2/||
fair
and also aura farming
i do have one availible but its lv 55
Also useful. Lots of clashing that needs to be held back
This is the canto of clashers
i dont like how the final combat is just pure win clash
Again
you are going to have to explain how she, possibly, had a positive impact
like
very good
I need some compellign arguments for a ||drunken bitch who whines about what she lost and does not want to know why she does anything that she does||
from that
pathetic whimp
does anyone here have a lv 60 hanafuda ish availiable for support?
i'll put her up in a second
ok
any preference on her egos
whatever you think is best
the thing about hana ish is her EGO is pretty important choicing
also a bit dependent on other IDs
yeah
oh
i mean
the only 2 ids for the others ive got leveled are gripper faust and zweiclair
oh hey I already have her up
mmm
lemme see
right i'll give you double gloom and capote then
it's up
friend code T646741463
sent
tidal elegy should help against the maestro esp since it gives her hella buffs in a duel situation
accepted
||i honestly hope saude shows up a lot less from now on. give her a break please||
part 3 end
||Oh no. Saude may have seen the future sinclair express the anti prosthesis hate the inquisitors have||
||they literally said she was on indefinite leave||
yes thats exactly what im referencing
wonder ||who's the fighters of the second smoke war||
||canto 3 had her continue to operate despite all that shit happening so i hope she actually stays on leave instead of showing up again a little after||
it's not uncommon for stories to timeskip to when characters are back in action
my man
like, all the clashes are struggling when the ring nuserfather comes in?
he starts off at 30 sanity ffs
GET IN THE COFFIN YOU WENCH
...
she is super fucking dope, though
Something of grave importance will occur now
that being the death of Gregor
Rest inpieces
like, i cant deal with his attacks and he just fucking kills me
Holy shit she is SO COOL THOUGH
discount ||king bradly||
also ||uses Disposal so apparently Nikolai is also a pameritan style user||
of the nursefathers
i'm pretty confident ||we'll get an id of her||
||her and index nursefather||
the ||least bad of the nursefathers lmfao||
||sorry lucio, we'll take it from here||
Sinclair.
Sinclair, please
PLEASE
alright
maybe I should remember that the spoiler tag exists
Relevant meme for the very end of the canto
im clashing with fascisia when im diretcing it at the nusefather?
i dont know what's going on
||Saude||
||Saude, I believe||
||hey buddy why are your bangs floating all of a sudden||
ok
I am fighting vs
||Valencina||
||WTF DO YOU MEAN EYE OF ODIN. WTF DO OYU MEAN SHE LOST HER POSTION AS SOTTOCAPO IN 3 DAYS WTF||
9-45 spoilers ||i can't stop listening to the roach emperor's theme. Like holy shit greg where were you keeping this banger||
I DON0T' KN0W
AND THE NTHERE'
||GUNGIR||
AAAH
||is it just me or does it feel somehow unreasonable of the faustcord||
||also his sanity mechanic and panic type makes me feel so sorry for him :(||
||yeah. I do like how they're building up the conflict between the faustcord and our faust, good fuel for her canto esp. with MOTWE in mind.||
Hey
Budy
uhm
||Hohenheim||?
Now... now would... would be the Time for... for E.G.O, you... you know?
OHHHH THE CLUUTUCH
I KNOW THAT E.G.O WEAPON
uhh uhhh
W.A.W.... for... for the dimensional... no, spatial... distortion....?
||they really managed to make him utterly terrifying while reminding you that Gregor never wanted any of this and doesn't want to fight his friends||
||i think it might be my second fav fight of the canto||
(9-45 spoilers over)
||to eject her from being a faustcord mod and also rename her that? yea but we don't know much about them yet||
Oh my fuck
If you were
Just
a tiny bit
Less deranged
||it also feels incredibly petty- which we know our faust can be sometimes, see the Heathcliff calling Mephi a stupid bus incident, but I'm willing to bet it's worse in the case of the othet fausts||
Stuff.
a lot
Things are happening I dare say
we'll need a big retrospective over the coming days
Is
alright.
let's... let's go... with... with the flow, yes
let's go with the flow
Vergcore
Smoke....?
what do i do against the stupid art freaks
Trenches?
SECOND?!
WH-
alright.
||Sinclair summoned a version of himself.||, that much is certain
||Green... Green deliverance?||
i looove losing for no fucking reason i love taking one billion unavoidable damage because that stupid flesh studded fucker's stupid fucking unbreaking coins just fuck my ass fucking stupid fucking garbage FUCK
||yep. There are a lot of implications there||
i kill the stupid fucking apprentice bitch but ooooh nooooo cant have it be so simple no? fucking kill that ring maestro too peon fucking ASSHOLES KILL YOURS- im calm
Ring? Uhhh you'll want to
prioritise hitting the repressed flesh skills when they happen with unopposed attacks that give them plus coin drops, those are crucial. Let Alyssa and Hohenheim cook, support them where necessary. Alyssa should help get rid of the stupid ass spikes he drops on one of your sinners sometimes once he's alone iirc
When the apprentice is staggered or otherwise indisposed don't go for the bait, try to hit the nursefather a bit more, he's the main target
i read the mechanics. they provide ZERO elucidation. that stupid fucking ugly fleshy cunt maestro bastard heals alllllll his stupid fucking SP and then has the FUCKING AUDACITY to also make my already garbage sinners clash worse. i play defensively i get my ass fucked i play offensively i do a little better but whoops, didnt answer the stupid cunt bastard's stupid cunt riddles three so all my guys die anyway! a-fucking-mazing
i did all of that
ALL OF THAT
and his stupid fucking pig cunt attack still fucking killed me because everyone FUCKING DIED
Yeah we have ||green coins now.||
it's a coin that goes nom on red coins to become stronger
so you should want to stop red coins with green coins
think of it as like a stop sign to stop red coins
so when you see a green coin think of a green stop sign
Thanks Rien
||excision coins do seem like they'll add something to gameplay tbh, a counter for unbreakables is pretty cool||
I think…
I think if they’re only activated if you win clash with that specific coin
That’ll be VERY interesting
||Just hope they get implemented in fun ways (to clarify i like unbreakables, but I think adding a new layer on top of them will add something more to the combat||
||Means you won't want to throw the big skills of certain units at them, since units with red coins usually have them on big skills||
||Because I could easily see Excision working as a mechanic where if you lose the first coin you can still win overall but now you have to eat the red coins, where if you won completely onesidedly the red coins would die||
||wonder what those purple coins ryoshu had might do||
Holy. shit.
||Erasure coins, they delete coins on clash (win or lose) at a % chance based on another mechanic||
ENTER
||- "Green Disaster/Deliverance"
- yellow color scheme||
Look at his coat
fuck
||colour fixer branding really fell off huh||
Maybe it was green once, but was ||bleached|| with the passing ||smoke||
Wait
doesn't that
isnt'
that what... ||Xichun|| started to learn?
||he remembers||
YES IT IS
||sinclair was also a student of the night drifter, after all||
||It’s our Sinclair, magic, not one from another world||
||A Certain Sinclair, but not an alternative possibility||
||Just a possibility for the current Sinclair, the one we know||
||To be clear it's sinclair from a future, yeah, but he's our sinc||
||He grabbed a prosthetics hater self from the future||
Wait.
||the egg hatched||
Is Timetravel a Taboo.
Don't think so
Canto end (postcredits) spoilers ||probable heavy links to what N Corp's planning according to Hermann.||
Otherwise the head would act
ok
EXPLODES
EXPLODES
EPCLOERS
EXPLODES YOU
CENSOR THAT
RHAAA
chr,m
sorry
as I was
saying
chrm chrm
Yeah this shit got me good when I played it
||SECOND SMOKE WAR||
we just straight up||cant see 2 of his keywords||

WAAAHHHH
...
foreshadowing is a narrative dev-
oh screw it
this isn't foreshadowing
this is
blatant plot reveal
Also about one of those keywords
||The bird fights its way out of the egg. The egg is the world. Who would be born must first destroy a world. The bird flies to God. That God's name is Abraxas.||
-Demian, Hermann Hesse.
||Abraxas||...
that means something
Now who
the FUCK
If it's the ||Middle||, why are the portraits, you know
It appears to be the ||Middle||
odd
did... did I not beat the shit out of you?
well
cracks neck
what's one more time
It comes up like a billion times in ACS’s kit description btw
Magic1L, Gimmick Reveal for the next few fights ||The pattern is you get ALL the runbacks||
"Thank you, ||Moses||", we all say in unison
THANK YOU MOSES
Moses is the fucking GOAT she's smoking that Smoke War Pack that shit that makes you hear the buzzing of dying infantry the shit you can only find along the trenches of an unrecognizable G Corp patch
Moses is smoking that abnormal kush
Shit so fire they watered it in the blood of thirty wing singularities
43 spoiler|| wwwwtttttttfffff||
Strange and Colorful Kush
moses' dark fucking evil pack
no that's Morel's ability :)
It is a vile, mean pack
it's fucking budget clues
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
okay

we've gotten cultivation and swordplay aura with the last few cantos
Abraxas interestingly features in both the Seven Sermons of Carl Jung and Sinclair's origin text
I really really appreciate the extra lore in the passivers
theres NO WAY like NO WAY they top this canto
Kind of as a dual being, good and evil in a singular whole
like the lore snippets are so good
You know who else has the imagery of two sides, who dare I say is between two worlds-
it's a sort of nicer form of word creep because in between freaking out abt the passives i get cool lore
"lmao, only 1 coin power"
my dearest sinner
that is 20 base power
what do you mean
when i see coin power down but thats 20 fucking base power im so cooked
Canto 9 part 3 spoilers, node 44 specifically
The best thing about Matthias is that he was kicked out of the Middle
Which means if you jump him it’s not going in the book or anything
I mean, so far, I am the one being beaten to death
9-43 ||WHY ARE THESE COINS GREEEN||
NOM NOM NOM NOM
You can’t just ask people why they’re green
Spoilers: ||i thought he was "just" an irresponsible and neglectful parent , given everything we learned about him but holy shit how did he manage to sink further below the bar||
Matthias stonks go ||DOWN HOLY FUCK||
||good thing he fucking DIES||
in a week!
Crashed worse than crypto
||poor Kira, honestly. Take her ass in , Bamboo Hatted Kim!!||
Mom- I mean
||Moses||
that's
that's the ||Middle||
you're going to be cou-
Ah?
does that not... trigger... it?
||She can train to be an awesome and cool swordswoman||
She’s immune to the concept of vengeance
||Moses is very much playing support, so she doesn't really "clash"||
And hre S3 is still locked
Also vespa and ezra are the physical fighters (for obvious reasons)
I-ooohhh
that
ouch
She's the strategist, hence why she's letting them do the clashing
Like uh, how do I explain this
Vespa is a color
But of him and Moses I think Moses is the worse of the two to seriously want you dead
End of fight spoilers ||we really see that with how she hollow purples matthias yeah||
Like if Vespa decides to kill someone, yeah, he’s gonna get their ass
But it’s possible to win those if you’re as cracked as he is
Moses? You’re fried fuckin’ chicken
Ain’t nothing gonna save you
...5 damage?
You ever seen what happens when you get to a boss health gate but there’s still turns left in the round
||YuRia, that bear that haunts the narrative||
Show me YuRia, honestly
YI SANG WHAT THE FUCK I DID NOT TELL YOU TO DO THAT WHAT ARE YOU DOING
We need more workshop rep!
He’s cooking
Wrong
Sinners will sometimes pop egos in these fights by themselves
he was cooked
Yes, I know
I meant that he just
clashed
wth... that
and then fucking died
oh.
I pressed winhrate
didn't I
Unopposed, right?
Yeah
Just stick it out until Moses is finished smoking her shadow garden grown evil pack
Pack so foul it killed an arbiter who tried it
If you’re worried about a stray counter killing your Sinners
Tbf he can work alone
Oh, that's cool
FOOLISH ARBITER, I LACED YO SHIT
PFFFTTTT DID SHE JUST THROW A PILLAR
How they got ||garion||
Real
||they didn't call kali the red mist just because of her combat abilities, is all I'm saying||
Garion was like “Kali you bitch it’s puff puff PASS not puff that shit like 8 times and ash it out” and then died from smoking on that shit
...
Yeah.
...
wtf.....||and not a mirror world. This is like legit the biggest event that has happened in this game yet||
||I hate him honestly. Middle stocks have never been so low||
The only one I've seen be... somewhat... appreciative is the Ring member, I suppose?
traumatising a child aside
it... haaah, that's
not
a
measure, is it
They kicked him out
urgh.
Awe and contempt
Holy shit is that a Ryoshu Limbus Company reference
YEESSS DONQUI!!!
Yeah but he's kind of like
The Middle looked at his ass and said "nah bruh get this mf outta here 😭"
Yes
But also to be completely fair
They did literally say “get this mf outta here”
“This Big Brother CRINGE”
Something is wrong.
||"Mods, erase this guy from the timeline"||
E-yup.
9-51 ||And low-key expected him to get erased from reality by Ryoshu||
you... you alright?
||https://bskye.app/profile/yongsadragon.bsky.social/post/3mci2mzl4dk2q|| canto 9 part 3 spoilers, nsfw in account
What
Pale breath is strong
Yeah it’s about to go the fuck down by the way Magic
Yeah
My second favourite node of this canto
Oh also gotta say
9-45 It’s painfully ironic for Valencina, of the Thumb, to ||get killed by the highest ranking person we’ve ever met in anything ever. The Ungeziefer Kaiser is an EMPEROR.||
||This does not bode well for Outis's Canto icl||
||Bro is the same level as First Kindred Don Quixote. And he's like. A half-formed, freshly hatched monstrosity||
Worse, honestly
Far worse
Oh, Oh goodness
||yeah like. What the fuck did you do to your son , Hermann??|||
||they put a fucking kaiju in my boy!!!||
9-51 ||This isn’t even his final form!||
||what the fuck do you do!!!!!!!!||
As moses said, loyalty is just a facade to the middle
But ||matthias was unable to even pay lip service properly. The house of spiders is the shame of the fingers||
Oh. My. Fuck.
||yeah i do appreciate how they're sort of like, each representations of the utmost flaws of their organisations, to the point where they actually get kicked out||
It’s OVER
||With the massive population drop happening soon, what we saw from future Sinclair, what we're seeing with Gregor, and how close Outis's canto is getting... I think shit is getting real bleak||
"king of vermin
FORGET ENTER PHILIP OR WHATEVER YOU WERE POPPING
YOU GOTTA GET THE FUCK OUTTA THERE
||+what N Corps up to, which probably gonna be involved in the gestation of this new war||
Make like Philip and fucking run
I think Kaiser translates to Emperor
Haul ass in the other direction and don't look back
It does yes
...I would know since I speak german
hehe
smug
It’s emperor of unsightly vermin
Buckle up.

seems that the middle ||is enforcing itself through fear of death not just among civvies, but also its own rank?||
Oh.
Which is what book gregor became
An unsightly vermin, is what he was called in German
Read hard and long
Yeah, do lock in
Anything, ask here
||If vergilius clashes a green skill you die||
||i'm glad for more greg content but my poor fucking guy.||
Oi
Actual mechanics spoilers
Some people like to figure the fights out themselves
Oh.
Oh my~
||Absorb||?
Does... does
oh no
does ||Dullahan|| count as a positive effect?
No
i learned my german from bad korean manhwa translations /j
||it shouldn't, no||
Yep.
btw fuck yall for doubting me /s
NEUTRAL
Yep.
First announcer that made me burst out in tears when I saw it.
A-
"this isnt even my final form"
We need a Hana Association kill team for this one dawg
Yeah fair that's why I spoilered it
||you might have noticed verg seemed a little uncertain beforehand? yeah this is why||
Please?
||they be feeding gregor some shit ong 😭 ||
...nope
alright
you knwo what?
fuck this
it's 1am
I have to get up in 7 hours
nuh uh
this is for later
yeah take a rest
Both easier and harder than first glance, but still a doozy.
took me a few tries but once you get the gimmick it's good
i was running t-corp rodya and oufi heathcliff, for reference
come back to this one fresh.
so not the best clashers but not bad ids, it is doable
but yeah, sleep on it
still listening to 9-45s theme
holy shit it's so good
||gregor|| i really don't think you should ||achieve your potentiality for the sake of you and everyone in the City|| but your mixtape is fire
||Potential man shows off his potential, everyone begs him to put it back||.
||not even his full potential btw. what the fuck. what the hell did you do hermann-||
||that was basically a LARVAL STAGE||
ME.
King in Binds Gregor
HOW DARE HE SHOW ME THIS CANTO AND EXPECT ME TO BE OKAY.
my live reaction
This might be the weirdest canto ngl

I wish Araya had more screen time though
"el director this canto is so cool"->"i'm going to ultrakill you"->
Fun analysis I saw
||Rien emulating roland while lacking his interior world creates an uncanny effect that helps us understand how ryoshu at first thought he was a kind father but then realized he was just emulating one, noticeable as she grew up and he kept the persona of a father of a small child
Ryoshu with her all cutting blade unearthed the little bit of sincerirt he would never have found on his own||
IF I EVER HAD KIM JI HOON IN FRONT OF ME I'D RIP HIM APART WITH MY BARE HANDS AND SAVAGE HIS ORGANS WITH MY TEETH.
MY EMOTIONS.
The pacing was wonky
I think the HQ invasion bit was overextended and part 3 carried too much
||At the end he was so tired of it, though. And he really did want to be a father to Ryoshu, I think. He just ended up following the Prescripts to the end||.
I thought it had the third best pacing.
||Ryoshu and araya's relationship is the emotional core of this canto, and needed more to cook||
it's def not flawless (every canto has issues) but I think it was still quite good despite cramming a lot of bosses into the third bit
the Will of the City is washeddd
||Araya announcer|| makes me want to shell out money for the game.
Someone, persuade me not to. Please.
||literal empty fanservice they inflicted ona guy for hype moments||
listen to the voice lines online until youre tired of it
okay we gotta talk about how dank the animation for InDon's locked S3 is
I feel like the main issue I had was 99% pacing
and how you'll NEVER see it
||yo this roland guy is pretty cool. could you cosplay him for the rest of your natural life?
-Hermes||
You can see the lines online
I did.
youtubee
||First time just seeing an announcer made me cry||.
||Listening was like- AAAARGH||.
||Araya...||
I already bought the pass so I have no regrets
KJH and everyone else at project moon cooked
I really feel like we could’ve used a 60 node thing or a dungeon for the end
Imagine a dungeon where there’s like
4 sides
nah
And you can play each sinner group like that
the all gas format was awesome
||I WONDER if that was the authorial intent (to make us/me think that the Will of the City is washed)||
more story nodes would have been helpful yeah
We could have a whole season for it
And you could really make it work
||The Index was always nonsensical orders without rhyme nor reason though. It always felt totally random||.
||This isn't more or less random||...
||Araya was undercooked, the rest I was fine with||
okay I know what you mean carmen
but the pacing felt like
appropriately oppressive for me
||i mean there's pretty effective horror about sublimating your own will so much you deadass just copy the identity of someone else because you were told to||
Index orders lead to a goal part of the time
I just want more Araya and more Ryoshu crashing tf out
||but the will of the city is indeed Washed (tm)||
Maybe I'm overly emotional and too sentimental but tbh what little we got was enough for me
Like yeah more would be nice but what we did get was enough to just
Break me
||sobbing over Araya||
It was emotional
It was good.
||I think the amount we had was good. If we did have empty space, we get to torment ourselves thinking about what could've been between Ryoshu and Araya||.
||could you imagine if Ryoshu got to reunite with her daughter properly and she maybe came along with us on the bus||
THROWING UP
True
||It's kind of like a poetic void, an emptiness||? Maybe I'm being pretentious.
||well, that's what fanfic is for /lh||
||the end of the canto still fucked me up good though. poor araya honestly||
9-45 ||Does this mean primordial man gregor theory is dead?:......|| @split beacon
nodnod
also
||Sinclair had his moment. Gregor now. WHERE IS RODION MOIMENTR AHHHH|| ||the one time dante isnt with the sinners 😌||
So (canto spoilers) ||considering emotions are linked to time, so must be memories
Ryoshu's temporal abilities make her better at using the memory blade, though that isn't expanded on||
||it really did feel like a raid like back to back to back EX: Clear Objectives, i unfortunately got exactly what I asked for and hhhhuuuuuhhhhhhhhoohmygod||
GREEEN
Index Don is actually from hell, who is this creature
Funny to think how the sephirah changed branches. If their teams became their assistant librarians, then the doctors from welfare team were transfered to social sciences
Safety became art
I really fucking hope in inferno we turn skills into cards
And we give every card a light cost
Purgatorio?
We are in inferno (lament)
almost like it's... some sort of library of ruina...
What
Was thinking "what floor would be fun to work in?"
Chesed is very wrlcoming
Also, did you need to ping? It's late for me
Philosophy
Second is religion
for future reference, dont bother clashing callisto's glut-affinity skills, and let the LCE duo meatshielf for you. by the gods i might just win this.
Discord is annoying tbh
Also just need these two then I’ll be finished with S5
awaiting that ||kiramael id after revalations in this new part||
Also i was looking back and uh
More 9-45 stuff
||i really wasn't expecting it now, but I guess we did get a look at that partial transformation after all lmao||
9-45 ||A BIT OF A FUCKIN UNDERSTAMENET THERE, LIMBUS COMPANY||
Post-Canto 9 E.G.O line for Ryoshu
||The bond is so deep and intrinsic, that even after her memories have been cleaved away to nothing, her daughter scattered into non-reality... her name remains in Ryoshu's E.G.O. Representative of her. Of who she is, fundamentally.||
nothing makes me want to strange something violently more than losing to the PENULTIMATE FUCKING SKILL to a FUCKING 5 FUCKING PERCENT
FIVE. FUCKING. PERCENT
Guess we have to level Fellsang now
(Also we still haven't done 90% of canto 9 so we will be leaving soon)
I don't think this ego gear is very good for you
Christ
What EGO gear is good for you
I mean fair
But still
Only need three more shards to max out the fell bullet EGO
Then I can-
why couldn't this guy have been an ammo ID
Rose did you just invest all of our thread into an ID that you haven't even figured out a team for?
Maybe
7 more
but yeah

I can help if you want
it's bloise, ideally with units that generate pride and wrath for the E.G.O, with lust res for Contempt Awe Ryoshu ID, with some squishier pierce weak IDs to get shot by Yi Sang as ammo
poise support more than bleed, aiui
You'll want a bloise faust for Thoracalgia, since that's super good at poise
heyaa rose
im only 40% of the canto myself
We are at... node 10 apparently
He’d probably end up like MB Outis or Solemn Lament if he was
We've got Shiaust so that's good
[Reply to:](#1208554035326484531 message) You'll want a bloise faust for Thoracalgia, since that's super good at poise
Given his ammo is ego
Don't have thoracalgia though, will have to get that when shards are easier to get
Probably also want to get Ryoshu's thoracalgia and her contempt EGO
I mean
yeah? and? that doesn't seem like an issue to me
iirc hers does not do poise support but probably still good
I would go for Thoracalgia on Faust as my first thing
pass levels will get you quite a few boxes, even without the upgraded version
Torn memory kinda does the same thing as magic bullets ig
checks
Oh yeah it only supports Ryoshu
[Reply to:](#1208554035326484531 message) iirc hers does not do poise support but probably still good
Oh right yeah
true
and... from the looks of it, MB doesn't count as ammo
sad
our only E.G.O ammo is Solemn Lament
(Gods, we wish N Sang didn't want IDs that are low level. Even though xp gain through battles is really slow, it will come up eventually)
[Reply to:](#1208554035326484531 message) it's bloise, ideally with units that generate pride and wrath for the E.G.O, with lust res for Conte…
it really won't lmao
or
okay well it will
sometimes
Barely
but also look me in the eyes
and genuinely tell me you have ever leveled sloshmael ever
like
I’ll get her level 60 outta spite
you can toss some fodder into your lineup/backline to just go through em
also he's just
better in MD than main story
it's his niche
it's unfortunate, but it's ofc not like he's unusable
he clashes fairly well, his damage is nice regardless, and also he's just super fucking cool so it doesn't even matter
aight, redo of 9-45 down. ||Go my very sad knight and very angry chicken||
I leveled her early cause I was using her for blunt exp lux back in season 2? I think
fuuuuck when's our next banner coming
The N corp one
next week
Sloshmael isn’t good for Nsang is she
she's got wrath
weak to pierce
not much HP
🫠
[Reply to:](#1208554035326484531 message) better in MD than main story
She’s pierce fatal but ish is not pride weak
okay yeah true
iirc the best ammos are BL Sinclair and Base Sinclair
probably should've told you before you started spending
come
join me in the mines
which makes no sense given her repressed feelings for Queequeg she should be weak to pride
It started spending the exact moment after it posted, so that wouldn't have helped 
[Reply to:](#1208554035326484531 message) probably should've told you before you started spending
it's ok
you went all in on Maid ishmael and ended up ok
each event gives like 400 thread anyways so
Hmm... actually, we do have an ID that spends a lot of its time at death's door
Unfortunately it doesn't synergize with anything else we have but eh
when are we going to meet a character whose approach to the Prescripts is just “if the will of the City has already accounted for my actions then why can’t I just do whatever the fuck I want?”
Probably is a heretical proxy
Even the punishments for failing to fulfill a Prescript are dictated via Prescript
And failures to carry out that punishment - say, if the original Prescript-ignorer kills their pursuer - then that too must be the will of the City. So it goes until they finally get what’s coming to them - if they ever even do.
Someone whose own will aligns so perfectly with that of the City that they just keep on trucking through it all.
finally, the protagonist of the city
Or alternatively, just someone willing and strong enough to push their luck to the very end until they finally bite it.
Hmm, going through some exp luxcavations and fell sang seems at least passable as a poise ID even if he isn't team killing every turn

Wait, I got it! I can use Hong Lord to substitute in a really weak ID once N Sang is set up with 7 Torn Memories!

Hurrrgh is this gonna be the day I finally read Kafka’s letter to his father in its entirety?
They had us read Metamorphosis back in high school as a summer reading assignment (and fuck them for that, on that note) but I never actually read the letter beyond what I needed to nab a few quotes and throw em in the paper. But ||the sudden reappearance of Hermann has me wondering what the OG man himself was like through the eyes of Kafka||
For further theory-fodder, if nothing else.
There is already a quote that sticks out about how ||Hermann crippled his son’s sense of safety and security from a young age by demonstrated that he could, at any time, barge into the boy’s room, carry him outside, and force him to sit on that pavlatche alone at night. A fear that das Ungeziefer Kaiser explicitly evokes with his threats of roaches crawling out of mattresses while we sleep. Maybe it’s sleep deprivation making me so touchy feely about a video game character but I hope Gregor will find a place to feel safe once again.||
It’s childhood trauma all the way down, innit.
it really is
TalisClair is a better source of cannon fodder apparently
[Reply to:](#1208554035326484531 message) Gods dammit N Sang 📎
