[ornate mantle]

Same with Gacha and video games in general.

[warm epoch]

as the sinful pleasure of rolling to get a reward would always stay

[dense wing]

and yes I am in highschool

[warm epoch]

[somber halo]

i didnt know kawa

[ornate mantle]

Such youth.

[dense wing]

you didnt?? until now?

[warm epoch]

y3s

[somber halo]

n

[ornate mantle]

I'm sure Kawa has mentioned it multiple times here.

[warm epoch]

I'm not here

[ornate mantle]

But iiirc you're not active a lot here frayya.

[somber halo]

not here

[dense wing]

ive mentioned I am 16 a few times

[warm epoch]

Wait kawaa

[somber halo]

i never really talked here until i met you guys at AX

[dense wing]

but obviously I do not boast about it

[ornate mantle]

Heprobably missed it those few times.

[warm epoch]

are you taking any ap?

[dense wing]

yes, next year I will be

[clear gate]

For what it's worth I'm old

[warm epoch]

yay

[ornate mantle]

For what it's worth i'm a degenerate.

[somber halo]

i mostly went to regular #al-general and always wondered where all the american players are

[warm epoch]

Another person upon the boat

[dense wing]

[warm epoch]

I'm dying inside

[ornate mantle]

@somber halo : Step into my office.

[somber halo]

[dense wing]

I always disliked #al-general

[ornate mantle]

🚪

[dense wing]

I spoke once and left

[warm epoch]

I took a ton of ap classes

[somber halo]

#al-general is all SEA ppl

[warm epoch]

Also general?

[clear gate]

I have exactly three channels that aren't hidden

[dense wing]

and I never communicated again until maybe 2 months ago

thats what I began speaking in this channel

[ornate mantle]

Is general where all the server supremacists are.

[somber halo]

when i tagged you lol

[clear gate]

#game-news, this one, and #technology

Everything else is muted and hidden

[dense wing]

I have many unhidden channels

mainly these

[ornate mantle]

I use @steep scarab 's server for Game News.

[dense wing]

oh hey, after taking that screenshot, my time came back!

[warm epoch]

[somber halo]

i am surprised kawa

that you're still here even with your dislike for sexy females

[warm epoch]

[dense wing]

@last kiln my online friends we used to have it as a guy from animal crossing for 2 years, but we changed it to him because hes so ugly

[warm epoch]

Wow

[dense wing]

@somber halo I dont like being around perverts, but because of that, ive learned to ignore it, thats why I can stand playing this game

[warm epoch]

But isn't that almost all of azur lane

[dense wing]

yes

[warm epoch]

Making ships into females

[dense wing]

I dont communicate with the community

[warm epoch]

But you're tech support

[dense wing]

because its mainly men making inappropriate comments all the time, so I pass

I am!

and I am a feedback assistant

and a bug report assistant

[somber halo]

i do admit that i am a pervert

[warm epoch]

Ok

[somber halo]

but im not that stupid

[dense wing]

@last kiln oh it is but I mean I didnt talk here until 2 months ago

I blocked the ingame chat and muted general and all that

[warm epoch]

I got this discord a few months ago, but I only used it for game news

[ornate mantle]

@last kiln : We are a higher level of chat.

[somber halo]

thats 90% of lurkers yes

[dense wing]

I really only spoke to toaster, restart, and ender

[warm epoch]

I have no clue who those people are

but ok

[ornate mantle]

Mods.

[clear gate]

Want to know a weird thing I do in this game

[dense wing]

toaster is another feedback assistant and tech support guy

[ornate mantle]

Wait, toaster isn't a mod.

[warm epoch]

well I won't be on this chat anymore in like 3 weeks

[dense wing]

restart and ender are mods and also feedback assistants

[somber halo]

toaster is tech support too

[ornate mantle]

It's fun talking about AL here.

Sometimes.

[warm epoch]

Half the time I come in here, it isn't about al

[dense wing]

ever since off topic was less strict, bonding has been a thing

[ornate mantle]

There a few people who kinda make that happen... and since mods don't really care anymore about OT it's kinda whatever.

[somber halo]

still a bit sad that i missed the picture

but i dont regret meeting you guys irl

[ornate mantle]

Oh dude that was one of the highlights for AX for me.

[warm epoch]

I mean I usually ask about questions in here, since my questions are usually ignored in gameplay help

But sometimes I push this into ot

[ornate mantle]

Meeting the people here was super awesome. Surprise visit from my LN buddy Meerkat too.

[warm epoch]

Not gonna lie about that

[ornate mantle]

Only one who I didn't get to see was @stuck copper

[somber halo]

the slowdown in gameplay both helps and setbacks the channel

[dense wing]

I saw apple!!

[clear gate]

So the thing I do is, I use the least-revealing skin available for ships that I use often

[dense wing]

I was at the gfl photoshoot

and he said

[somber halo]

without the slowdown, that channel will be fast af

[ornate mantle]

Apparently Apple saw me in Artist Alley.

[dense wing]

HEY KAWA

IM APPLE

and walked away

[clear gate]

lol

[ornate mantle]

If I feel like playing in public I'll use Entyclause skin.

[warm epoch]

Will azur lane ever get a anime?

[clear gate]

Yes

Later this year

[somber halo]

yes?

[warm epoch]

:0

[somber halo]

its in october isnt it

[ornate mantle]

If I don't care I always default to Deutschland Swimsuit.

[somber halo]

or was that the game

[warm epoch]

I tried watching kancolle, it didn't work with me

[somber halo]

i forgot which

[clear gate]

Kancolle anime was crap

[somber halo]

kancolle was too slice of life

[ornate mantle]

Now Now it wasn't that bad.

[warm epoch]

I was confused on how arrows turned into planes

Then I was sad when the chibi fighters died

[ornate mantle]

Wtf man it's anime.

But they didn't die.

[warm epoch]

Well i mean it's an anime about boats

[ornate mantle]

They had eject seats.

[warm epoch]

I wasn't expecting magic

I get arpeggio as they said "aliens"

[somber halo]

it'd be difficult to incorporate fighting in kancolle

hence the last few eps were rip

[ornate mantle]

I used to hang in help, but then I found this channel and it was more helpful ironically.

[warm epoch]

Gameplay help?

[ornate mantle]

I brought it up with mods and then Help turned into an actually helpful place.

Well, more so than when I experienced it.

[clear gate]

I have help muted because it seems to be regularly frequented by people who think that their help is the only good help

[warm epoch]

I never use that place

I just ask in here

[somber halo]

help to me is only useful if i need an immediate answer

[warm epoch]

[somber halo]

like choosing between guns and stuff

[ornate mantle]

I don't even know where help is on my channel list anymore.

[somber halo]

very direct questions

[ornate mantle]

[warm epoch]

^

bot spam :D

[ornate mantle]

I just don't have questions.

[dense wing]

I ask in gameplay help for other people

[ornate mantle]

[dense wing]

but now I just redirect them there

[somber halo]

pink role stands out

[dense wing]

its annoying asking a question and they dont respond

[ornate mantle]

It really is.

[warm epoch]

I've finally experienced the customer service hell

[dense wing]

it wastes a lot of time for me, so I send them there instead so they can waste their time

[clear gate]

If you want to drop a firebomb in help, here's a question I can think of to ask:

• Should I use 76mm or 100mm on Aya?

[ornate mantle]

I think I've seen what that results in.

[warm epoch]

I use the 76mm

[ornate mantle]

Not pretty.

[warm epoch]

[dense wing]

@warm epoch what happened?

[verbal obsidian]

i use my pepega3000

[clear gate]

Hahaha yes

Repair ships

[somber halo]

im actually stupid but whats the gun caliber actually measuring

[ornate mantle]

Oh man Akashi Vs. Vestal.

[somber halo]

using mm is really small isnt it?

[ornate mantle]

I actually hate that question... I've used Vestal since I got her Week 1 of game launch.

But Akashi is also very viable.

[somber halo]

vestal for boss, akashi for mob

[clear gate]

76mm is close to 3 inches @somber halo, that's a 3-inch wide projectile

[ornate mantle]

So I feel it boils down to Loli Cat vs. Thicc Nun.

[clear gate]

It's not small

It's just small for a ship gun

[warm epoch]

So, I work in a bubble tea shop, and listen to people take orders (obv). I had to take an order from a lady who didn't know english too well. I tried to be as polite as possible, and asked her to repeat her order. Next thing you know she sighs, and thinks I'm stupid or something. @dense wing

[somber halo]

i see

[warm epoch]

Then when I realize what drink she wanted, she starts to order for 2 different drinks when Im trying to make her one

[somber halo]

barrel diameter, i see

[dense wing]

ah

[clear gate]

Keep in mind that the projectile is going to be much longer than 3 inches

[ornate mantle]

Oh, I helped a 70 year old guy retrieve his email so he could forward something at work yesterday.

[warm epoch]

And she kept sighing and acting like I was a retard

[dense wing]

for me the most stressful times of tech support are when people are like
HELP I CANT UPDATE THE GAME AFTER THE PATCH
one after another

[warm epoch]

My last order too

[ornate mantle]

I've never had to help someone in a Graduate School setting do something like "How do I send an Email?"

[dense wing]

because of that we have to lock the channel

[ornate mantle]

Until yesterday.

[dense wing]

and redirect people to dm us

[warm epoch]

Wow

[clear gate]

The 410mm guns are 16.1 inches, imagine a giant rifle-like round that's 16.1 inches wide @somber halo

That's a battleship gun for ya

[dense wing]

only dm if they arent having a “patch update” problem like gems

[warm epoch]

But yeah, I've now seen the dark side

[dense wing]

last time we did that, it worked insanely well!

[ornate mantle]

Helping people is pretty nuts.

[warm epoch]

I wanted to be polite, but nooooo

[clear gate]

That's a projectile that can easily weigh over a ton

[somber halo]

i dont have the patience to do any staff work in this server

[clear gate]

and battleships launch those over several miles

[somber halo]

im already having trouble managing mine

[ornate mantle]

OH, I had a guy I was helping get so frustrated at a machine that he ripped out his paper, screamed, and threw the papers.

[warm epoch]

I'm surprised kawaa has the patience

[ornate mantle]

I don't have the time to waste doing staff work.

[stuck copper]

@wintry sonnet got 6 cubes today

[ornate mantle]

I'd help be a mod for this channel.

[somber halo]

just this channel?

[warm epoch]

yeah

[ornate mantle]

Why not.

[somber halo]

well ya kno

there isnt much in terms of raiding here

[ornate mantle]

Exactly.

[clear gate]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/40_cm/45_Type_94_naval_gun

[somber halo]

[warm epoch]

uhh

[ornate mantle]

Oof r u there rn.

[warm epoch]

What

[somber halo]

this is a pretty dark building

[clear gate]

Or a crap camera

[dense wing]

im 16 and have this insane patience for techsupport, its really crazy isn’t it

[warm epoch]

Whats funny is that dude in the white cap is taking a picture too

[ornate mantle]

Ohhhhh.

They censored people faces, lmao.

[somber halo]

why is kawa getting younger?!?

[dense wing]

feedback is also a pain sometimes

but only a pain when people rant about translation

[warm epoch]

??

[dense wing]

we let mods handle it

[warm epoch]

Wait what

[somber halo]

i wonder if i ever appeared in any pictures at AX

[dense wing]

because people get very rude

[warm epoch]

Translation?

[somber halo]

i know i was on the live stream

[dense wing]

yes, localization

[warm epoch]

Ohh

[clear gate]

Yep, people complain about how the game is translated all the time

[dense wing]

they rant that its “not right” and stuff

[ornate mantle]

localization can be a pain.

[warm epoch]

[ornate mantle]

And then they get preachy.

[somber halo]

remember the clevelad reveal?

[clear gate]

Oh yeah

[ornate mantle]

Like "How dare you do this?"

[dense wing]

so I cant help then bc they easily get very hostile to me so I let ender and restart do it

[warm epoch]

I just wish some cool games that cn and jp have would go to global

[ornate mantle]

Same.

I still haven't made my alternate email for JP itunes.

[somber halo]

well ya kno, it would cost a lot of money to increase servers right off the bat

[ornate mantle]

but I will.

[warm epoch]

ik

[ornate mantle]

Maybe today actually while I have energy.

[warm epoch]

Thats why I said wish

[dense wing]

if you ever need it azu, I can let you use my jp itunes

[somber halo]

i need food

and something to make my snot go away

[clear gate]

I'm leveling a 0LB Downes for farming purposes

[somber halo]

to download weeb music ofc

[warm epoch]

I think I made a jp itunes for dokkan

[clear gate]

Also, region locking

[ornate mantle]

I appreciate it, haha. I'd rather not compromise your JP Itunes for whatever reason though. I get skeptical using other peoples stuff.

[warm epoch]

I forget

[clear gate]

Because region locking is a thing that exists

[warm epoch]

Yeahhhh

[ornate mantle]

@clear gate : bruh.

[somber halo]

yeah but the quality isnt as great unfortunately

[ornate mantle]

Just get a VPN.

[clear gate]

The good VPNs are pretty expensive

[somber halo]

sometimes you get ppl increasing speed, pitch, or adding a lot of silence at the end

[clear gate]

The other VPNs are all shit

[warm epoch]

Isn't nord vpn pretty good?

[ornate mantle]

Express VPN?

[warm epoch]

[clear gate]

I had Express for a while

[somber halo]

i got hotspot shield once and i got attempted scam on me

you're required to input payment info just to use the free trial

[warm epoch]

I know nord is doing 100$ for 3 years

[ornate mantle]

That's not bad.

[clear gate]

That's not bad at all

[warm epoch]

It's really good tbh

[clear gate]

Free VPNs should always be ignored

[warm epoch]

I make 100 in one week

[dense wing]

hey

[ornate mantle]

About $2/mo is amazing.

[clear gate]

and the reason why free VPNs should be ignored is, they're probably making money through some questionable means

[warm epoch]

probably

[dense wing]

PC VPN: softether
iOS VPN: VPN Cat with ads
android vpn: hotspot shield

[warm epoch]

Free = sus

[dense wing]

I recommend these

they are good

[warm epoch]

[ornate mantle]

I'd rather just pay. I don't like free stuff much anymore.

[dense wing]

softether is a college use vpn

[clear gate]

I use Linux, which is part of why I ran Express

[ornate mantle]

Like Anime Streaming sites... the glory free days.

They're long passes.

[somber halo]

hotspot shield was good for the free trial but they never gave me the ability to cancel payment

[dense wing]

so if you use softether for illegal use, you’ll get caught

[somber halo]

as using it longer than the free trial is automatic payment

[ornate mantle]

Wow a college use VPN.

[somber halo]

and they never tell you

[dense wing]

but otherwise I use softether to play region blocked games or access region blocked websites

its really good imo

ya its from fukuoka college I think?

it started as a student project

[warm epoch]

[clear gate]

Nord has a Linux version 🤔

[somber halo]

azur lane is the only thing i need international connections for

idk if i would ever need a vpn for other things

my irl name is so unique, that everything related to it is me if you know it

[ornate mantle]

My name is an entire genre of literature.

[warm epoch]

My name is not common

I think?

[clear gate]

Oh oh lemme guess @ornate mantle

[somber halo]

a mix of german, swedish, and italian and slap that on an asian person

thats me

[clear gate]

Science fiction

P:

[ornate mantle]

Woah on the first guess.

[clear gate]

Wow!111!! Am so smart

[ornate mantle]

gib cookie 2 u

[warm epoch]

what

is that

[ornate mantle]

OH.

Real names?

[somber halo]

[ornate mantle]

I thought it was username.

[warm epoch]

Michel

[somber halo]

lel

i wish i had a common name

[ornate mantle]

Uhhhhhh, my IRL name is apparently pretty common as far as I'm told.

[warm epoch]

My name is a short from of another name

Which is theodoric the name which my name is from

[stuck copper]

greek

[somber halo]

also

[ornate mantle]

Okay I'm probably gonna go grab some food in a second.

Tempted to buy the Nekpara complete collection

[warm epoch]

what

[somber halo]

for government purposes and consistency

they removed the spaces in my first name

[warm epoch]

did nekopara get a anime or is just a movie

[ornate mantle]

ANime.

[clear gate]

I have a simple name that an amazing amount of people have gotten wrong

[warm epoch]

john

[somber halo]

so my social security card looks like a giant slur of letter slapped together

[clear gate]

No

[ornate mantle]

@somber halo : Whew.

[warm epoch]

Spencer

Kyle

Nick

Kool Aid

[clear gate]

No and no and no and no and no comment

[ornate mantle]

Dick?

[somber halo]

i was born with spaces in my first name because my parents were fighting over it

and decided to put multiple names in there

[warm epoch]

Barney

[ornate mantle]

Oh man, I get what you mean, lmao.

[clear gate]

I'm going to stop answering

lol

[warm epoch]

Cornelius

[somber halo]

from what ive heard, as americans though

[verbal obsidian]

OMELETTE DU FROMAGE

[ornate mantle]

My friend has her last name as two names... one of which is actually my last name, lmao.

[warm epoch]

Ah

[somber halo]

if your parents wanted to add another name to the kid, it becomes a middle name

[warm epoch]

Last names that can also be first names

[somber halo]

my parents didnt know that

but my middle name is my mom's maiden name

[warm epoch]

I always wonder if someone is named John John

[ornate mantle]

William?

It can be both a LN and a FN.

[somber halo]

my dad wanted to name me john

[warm epoch]

Bad

[somber halo]

but he used the equivalent in a different culture

[ornate mantle]

Welcome to t he family of 5 billion other johns.

[clear gate]

Imagine if Geohn

[warm epoch]

I don't wanna be named kevin

[somber halo]

[ornate mantle]

Jon?

[warm epoch]

Jovana

[clear gate]

As in Geoffrey

[somber halo]

no, my name doesnt have a J in it

[ornate mantle]

Someone out there is named ABCD.

[somber halo]

in none of them

[warm epoch]

Ovana

[clear gate]

A number of countries have laws on what names are legal

[ornate mantle]

That always stumps me a little, but names are names I guess.

[somber halo]

wat

[warm epoch]

makes sense

[clear gate]

E.g. in Japan, you can only choose from a certain subset of characters

and you can't use offensive combinations of those characters

[ornate mantle]

Oh really? That's interesting.

[somber halo]

well ya know

[warm epoch]

I mean

[ornate mantle]

Well the offensive combination is kinda given.

[somber halo]

american celebrities nowadays

[warm epoch]

Who would wanna be named after a swear word

You would be a joke

[ornate mantle]

I mean the parents gotta really hate the kid at that point.

[clear gate]

In Iceland, you have to use a name that is Icelandic in origin, with I think a couple of exceptions

[ornate mantle]

Wait what.

[warm epoch]

Also american celebrities come up with the weirdest names

Kulture?

[ornate mantle]

Meta Worldpeace.

[somber halo]

thats what i was referring to

[warm epoch]

Is your kid a vulture???

[ornate mantle]

????

[warm epoch]

Oh

I was referencing that towards "kulture"

An actual name for a kid

[somber halo]

i once pissed off my ex

[ornate mantle]

I'm sure there's one parent out there that named their kid after an anime character.

[somber halo]

when we were still together

[warm epoch]

Uhh

[ornate mantle]

"Welcome to the world Goku".

[clear gate]

Also, Icelandic last names are to the effect of "John's daughter" or "Steve's son" and that creates confusion for some people since people in the same family will very rarely all have the same last name

[warm epoch]

Oh that

[somber halo]

i said we'd name our daughter after her and add junior

[ornate mantle]

LUL

Isn't that limited to men only.

[somber halo]

so far it has had a 100% anger rate

because you know

when women get married, their last name changes

[warm epoch]

[somber halo]

men only have it because their name is consistent throughout life

[warm epoch]

Still didn't think that warlord was a LN

[ornate mantle]

AH. is the JR/SR part based on LN.

I thought it was a FN indicator.

[warm epoch]

Also when somebody said "LN" in this chat, I thought of light novel for some reason

[ornate mantle]

Like John Jr or some shit.

[somber halo]

i also thought light novel

[ornate mantle]

Yeah that's me, lmao.

[warm epoch]

Also kawaa has been trying to type

[somber halo]

idk what LN you guys are specking of

[warm epoch]

then stops

[ornate mantle]

I started using LN = Last Name, but I got confused too.

[somber halo]

oh

[warm epoch]

[ornate mantle]

What can ua do.

[warm epoch]

I've read too many LNs

[ornate mantle]

Aye my man.

[warm epoch]

That I always assume that LN = Light novel

[ornate mantle]

I'm a LN addict too.

[warm epoch]

[somber halo]

i dont read books, im just a weeb

[warm epoch]

Thats like reading manga, then not reading ln

[ornate mantle]

I'm a weeb that reads books.

[warm epoch]

For some reason

[clear gate]

So who's an unpopular ship that you really like 🦊

[somber halo]

hm

[ornate mantle]

An Unpopular ship?

[warm epoch]

[ornate mantle]

Uhhhhhhh.

[warm epoch]

I don't ship things

[ornate mantle]

I ship things all the time.

But.

Yeah I gotta think n that one.

[clear gate]

Let's assume that unpopular means "less than 1000 likes on Avrora"

[ornate mantle]

OH.

Ship.

As in AL ship.

[clear gate]

Yes

lol

[somber halo]

i generally like female characters with black hair regardless of actual popularity

[ornate mantle]

I thought you meant "What's an unpopular pairing in anime you like?"

[clear gate]

lmao

That's fair

[warm epoch]

Wait

I thought that too

[ornate mantle]

Wtf man all these phrases are confusing, lmao.

[warm epoch]

I forgot that we're going back into topic

[ornate mantle]

My favorite ship overall is Deutschland.

And I guess she's not too popular.

Not that I care of course.

[clear gate]

Well, Desuland has over 1000 likes on our humble server

[warm epoch]

heh

[ornate mantle]

Does she?

[clear gate]

Yup

[ornate mantle]

[clear gate]

1819 likes

[somber halo]

i like I-56

[warm epoch]

I like the school girl outfits, not for the weirdness, but because they look cute

[somber halo]

her hair is really nice

[warm epoch]

And it reminds of animes like sweetness and lighting

[stuck copper]

@ornate mantle

[clear gate]

This is actually not too difficult a question for me since there are a few I can name

hence why I'm asking other people 🦊

[ornate mantle]

I guess Galatea?

Galatea, Arethusa, Ikazuchi.

[clear gate]

It's probably safe to say that Galatea isn't popular even if she has over 1000 likes lol

[ornate mantle]

Yeah.

I'd say my favorite of them is Galatea.

[clear gate]

I like Niizuki

[somber halo]

i like acasta as well

[ornate mantle]

792 likes, and I actually have her liked here, lmao.

[somber halo]

i hate niizuki

[clear gate]

Oh yeah, Acasta's cute

[somber halo]

only because ive done 1000 runs of 9-4 and still dont have her yet

[clear gate]

Niizuki is fluff incarnate, she bribes you with her tails

[somber halo]

been running 9-4 since crimson echoes

[warm epoch]

Where can you check the likes again?

I forgot

[clear gate]

In comments

[somber halo]

memento > archieve?

[warm epoch]

Oh thanks

I was looking for that

[somber halo]

how2spell

[clear gate]

Archive

[ornate mantle]

There's also Forbin.

[warm epoch]

I like isokaze

she looks very cute

[clear gate]

Forbin is pretty, I wouldn't say I especially like her tho

[somber halo]

i like denver but idk how many likes she has

[clear gate]

Hatsuharu

[somber halo]

she's the only one in light build i dont have

[ornate mantle]

You know.

[clear gate]

Same lol @somber halo

I haven't got Denver

[ornate mantle]

Sendai might be the lowest liked ship in the game.

[somber halo]

sendai is too frail

[warm epoch]

How much?

[clear gate]

And you have to farm to get her

[ornate mantle]

No but...

I usually like ships based on look and personality.

[somber halo]

sendai is also the reason why most of my D3 runs are A rank

[clear gate]

Same Rano

[ornate mantle]

So i assume it's just that people don't like her design or personality.

Or something.

[clear gate]

I like fluffy things, so for example I like Bataan

[ornate mantle]

Because there are objectively shitty ships here.

That have much higher like count.

[warm epoch]

The lowest I saw was 213

[ornate mantle]

So it can't be viability in game.

[somber halo]

i also like hatsuharu and yuugure

[warm epoch]

and it was abercrombie

[clear gate]

I bet Choukai doesn't have a lot of likes, partly because of farming hell

[warm epoch]

I like kamikaze

She looks so derpy

[clear gate]

I was right! Choukai only at 124 likes

because 12-4 hell

probably

[ornate mantle]

I think that's because of accessibility.

She's a high level ship.

[somber halo]

i havent even finished 12-1 yet

but yeah for me, just have black hair, instant like

[clear gate]

12-1 through 12-3 are about the same, 12-4 has an annoying boss fight where maximizing DPS will generally work better for you than trying to tank it out

at least that is what I've found

[ornate mantle]

I guess one thing I love are the hair horns and drill hair.

[somber halo]

im too underleveled

well, the botes that could carry me through 12 are underleveled

[ornate mantle]

So Deutschland, I-13, and Chaser are all in my strike zone.

[somber halo]

i leveled up a lot of botes that dont mattter

[ornate mantle]

[clear gate]

I see

🦊

Also Frayya, mob fleet design for ch12 is actually the easy part

[somber halo]

such as my grand trophy of my level 120 mutsuki kai

[ornate mantle]

Funnily enough, I have drill hair IRL.

[warm epoch]

what

What is drill hair?

[clear gate]

Just run Unicorn + some kind of AR in the backline, and run a couple of bricks in the frontline, easy 2:2

There are no suicide boats, so you don't need a battleship

[somber halo]

other than my pvp fleet and mutsuki everyone else is underleveled

[clear gate]

You can do ch12 with that actually

[somber halo]

[warm epoch]

that feeling when I haven't even gotten past 105

[ornate mantle]

That's drill hair.

When your hair kinda swirls around.

[warm epoch]

Ohhh

[somber halo]

when i did chapter 12 the first day it came out, i lost all hope in myself

[ornate mantle]

That's basically what happens to my hair naturally.

[warm epoch]

So long curly hair

[somber halo]

for guys, the opposite of drill hair

is a pompadour

[warm epoch]

What I got

I think?

[ornate mantle]

Pompadour, I can pull it off.

But yeah basically.

Long curly hair.

[clear gate]

Mob fleet: Unicorn + Akashi or Vestal / Phoenix + one more
Boss fleet: Nagato + Foxes / Yukikaze + Jintsuu + Leander I guess

[somber halo]

is ugly to me but its good for memes

[ornate mantle]

Although my hair doesn't get too long.

[clear gate]

Should be v stable for ch12

[somber halo]

oh my

[ornate mantle]

But when I let it grow it really does grow a lot.

[warm epoch]

I still don't have foxes

I gave up

[ornate mantle]

Ouch.

[somber halo]

i guess i'll try ch 12 when i finish clearing the event shop

[warm epoch]

I got kaga that was it

[clear gate]

Good luck!

[ornate mantle]

I'm gonna go get some food.

[warm epoch]

I mean, I would use my cranes

[ornate mantle]

I might just buy Nekopara.

[clear gate]

May require manual for boss, but the mob fleet should be pretty consistent on auto as long as you don't run into 3* main fleet mobs too often

[somber halo]

i too require nourishment

[warm epoch]

I too require a banana to eat

[somber halo]

i actually

still have to grind for ibuki atm

last PR bote

[warm epoch]

I haven't got my first pr boat

It will change in the next months though

[somber halo]

[warm epoch]

[clear gate]

That's fine, you can convert the mob fleet. Same backline, but the frontline is full of underleveled MLB IJN cruisers from level 80+, preferably 90+

I swear this will work.

It sounds like idiocy but I swear it will work, your frontline can be hilariously underleveled for ch12

(on safe at least)

[warm epoch]

[clear gate]

This is how I'm doing my Roon grinding

[ornate mantle]

Alrighty.

I bought all the Nekopara games.

[clear gate]

lol

[warm epoch]

How much?

@clear gate Whats your vanguard for roon

[ornate mantle]

$29

[clear gate]

I'm juggling stuff, I'm leveling Birm at the same time

[warm epoch]

I wish I had akashi ;(

[clear gate]

This mob fleet is stable in ch12 and can run on no ammo for a good while

It's slow, so occasionally you lose out on time and get an A

[warm epoch]

Oh does ch12 not have bombers?

[clear gate]

ch12 has no suicide boats, yeah

You want anti-air instead

because there's a fuckload of planes

[warm epoch]

Well I haven't even hit 110

[clear gate]

Vestal should work too

The repair ship is there for the double AA guns

The heal is good too

but the AA guns are critical

[warm epoch]

I'm just farming 7-2

For aa gun

[clear gate]

Oh, the roomba

[warm epoch]

I call it the ufo

roomba also works

I never thought of that

[clear gate]

lol

I've heard both

[warm epoch]

The game also doesn't want me to get the washing machine

[clear gate]

but I like Roomba more

[ornate mantle]

I like Roomba more.

I'm gonna have two washing machines soon.

[clear gate]

I do 11-4 to farm UFO/Roomba, with this same mob fleet except that Akashi is swapped out for a battleship

[warm epoch]

I'm on w9

[clear gate]

since 11-4 is fire hell, not plane hell

[warm epoch]

I could go to w10-11

but I'm lazy

[ornate mantle]

Alrighty I'll be back I'm gonna head out to go grab some grub for the night.

[warm epoch]

[clear gate]

ch10 is pretty easy now

ch11 requires some optimization

[warm epoch]

Well

I watch anime then auto

[ornate mantle]

You're not motivated to farm when you can just throw money at the screen.

[clear gate]

I run AL in emulator in the corner of my secondary monitor

[ornate mantle]

I watch anime on the side.

Speaking of, has anyone seen Kimetsu ep today?

[warm epoch]

Kimestu?

[ornate mantle]

Kimetsu no Yaiba: Demon Slayer.

[clear gate]

I have not watched

[warm epoch]

Ohhh

I read the manga

I got bored

[ornate mantle]

Awwww.

[warm epoch]

Heard the anime had some really good animations though

[ornate mantle]

They animated the fight today amazingly.

[clear gate]

What is the most boring anime or manga you've seen

[ornate mantle]

No joke the anime has some top quality animation.

[warm epoch]

Hmm

Probably something on the lines of nisekoi

I hate harem

[ornate mantle]

Most Boring was definitely Sakurasou no Pet Na Kanojo.

Ufotable, the gods of animation.

[warm epoch]

All harems have the most dead beat women side leads

[ornate mantle]

@last kiln : I absolutely hate the MC.

He's my #1 hated character of all time.

[clear gate]

For me, the most boring IMO is probably GJ-Bu. I watched half of it and then got bored so I stopped. Which in my opinion, is the worst kind of boring - the kind that keeps you there for a while

[warm epoch]

Wait what

[ornate mantle]

I hate him too much to forget.

[warm epoch]

isn't there an anime where the mc cheats on a chick

[ornate mantle]

Awwww, I actually liked GJ0bu.

[warm epoch]

WAIT

[clear gate]

I know some people love it

but I just couldn't get into it

[ornate mantle]

That's actually more than you'd think, lmao.

[warm epoch]

The manga I do hate is band one

[ornate mantle]

^

My thoughts exactly.

[warm epoch]

I gotta search for it

[ornate mantle]

Also Love and Chocolate.

[warm epoch]

FUUKA

God I hate fuuka

[ornate mantle]

I guess to an extent Yosuga no Sora.

[warm epoch]

hey

Don't spoil

Smh

[ornate mantle]

Wait which one was Fuuka

[warm epoch]

Band anime

/manga

[ornate mantle]

Oh haven't seen this one.

[warm epoch]

The cover is a blue chick with headphones

Manga got a ton of hate

I also hate it

[clear gate]

I found Mars of Destruction to be super boring at its worst, but the rest of it was so bad it was funny imo. So it doesn't get the "most boring" dishonor from me

It's a 20min OVA so it didn't feel like a waste of my time either

[warm epoch]

Not worth time

[clear gate]

MoD is the only thing that has made me laugh at a spaceship full of people exploding into dust, and also the only thing that has made me laugh at someone's head getting blown off in a shower of gore, because the execution is so poor

[warm epoch]

Anybody read, I want to eat your pancreas?

[clear gate]

No, but I have heard of it

[ornate mantle]

Anyone read Parasite Sana?

[warm epoch]

Hmm

[clear gate]

That's the one with the tapeworm right

[warm epoch]

Describe?

[ornate mantle]

Where the guy gets a stomach worm and it turns into a waifu.

[clear gate]

Yep

[warm epoch]

What

WHAT

[ornate mantle]

LUL

[somber halo]

i s2g this is the coldest effing summer ive ever experienced being alive in california for the 20+ years ive been alive

[warm epoch]

JAPAN WHAT

TAPEWORM = WAIFU?

[clear gate]

Yep, tapeworm waifu

[ornate mantle]

One of my favorite LN is "I was reincarnated into a vending machine".

[clear gate]

There's also one with a cockroach waifu

[warm epoch]

OMG

[ornate mantle]

Oh Gako-chan!

[dense wing]

bruh.

[ornate mantle]

I remember that one.

[warm epoch]

@ornate mantle That is probably one of the isekais I actually read

[ornate mantle]

@warm epoch : I read a lot of Isekai. My #1 genre for sure.

[dense wing]

yall this lonely you love an anime about cockroach and tape worm waifu?

[clear gate]

lmao

[warm epoch]

no

[ornate mantle]

It's not about being lonely.

It's just Japan.

[warm epoch]

I didn't know about the tapeworm one

[ornate mantle]

🤷

[warm epoch]

but I did know about the cockroach

it confused me

[ornate mantle]

Japan is what I call the "Land of Freaky Shit".

[warm epoch]

[ornate mantle]

But I love it regardless.

Because there's something for everyone.

[warm epoch]

[ornate mantle]

Even if you lvoe tapeworms or vending machines.

[warm epoch]

hey

[ornate mantle]

[warm epoch]

The vending one is fine

[ornate mantle]

I'm not saying it isn't.

I'm saying that if you love it, Japan probably has it.

[warm epoch]

Problem with isekai

Is they all follow the same route

[ornate mantle]

There is none of course.

[warm epoch]

so I like reading the wacky isekais

[somber halo]

yes am pretty lonesome

[ornate mantle]

You have us Frayya.

[clear gate]

Isekai is a very saturated genre, so it can be hard to find the ones you like. I find a lot of them mediocre

[ornate mantle]

until 12:00PM of course

[warm epoch]

You read ISSTH? @ornate mantle

[somber halo]

but you're guys

[warm epoch]

Wow

Whats wrong with guys

[ornate mantle]

@warm epoch : Uh, I've read a fuck ton of novels. Gonna need to give me the full name, lmao.

[clear gate]

If you like weird ones, there's one where the guy reincarnates as a hot spring

[warm epoch]

I shall seal the heavens

it was a popular one a while back

Then it was completed

[ornate mantle]

Oh, yeah I don't read Wuxia.

[somber halo]

i am 100 percent gender discrimitory

[warm epoch]

Ah I see

[ornate mantle]

@somber halo : Same.

[warm epoch]

@clear gate I already read that one

[ornate mantle]

None of that PC shit here.

[warm epoch]

You think I didn't read it

[clear gate]

Lol

[ornate mantle]

Yeah Wuxia is all the same to me.

[somber halo]

real talk, AL saved me from commiting not living

[warm epoch]

I also read an isekai about turning into a school

[ornate mantle]

"I'm reincarnated, now I'll rape your bitch."

[clear gate]

Really

[ornate mantle]

Is basically what every Wuxia turns into.

[warm epoch]

Oh wait what

I don't read isekai wuxia

[somber halo]

i was going through some stuff for a couple years

[ornate mantle]

Well, it's not even just isekai.

[warm epoch]

Also most wuxia goes into really bad romance

[clear gate]

That sucks, depression can go stuff itself @somber halo

[warm epoch]

Where the female lead is garabage

[ornate mantle]

"[Insert Character Type], So I'll rape your bitch." is basically the magic formula for Wuxia.

[warm epoch]

lmao

[ornate mantle]

Idk why.

[warm epoch]

I can honestly see that

or

[somber halo]

well ya kno

[clear gate]

and all that other stuff

[warm epoch]

I HATE YOU FOR NO REASON

[ornate mantle]

So I'll rape your bitch.

[somber halo]

no where to go but down

[warm epoch]

Then when you hit them, " I'll HAVE MY REVENGE"

[somber halo]

so i became a neet and full time weeb

[warm epoch]

Like they started the fight

[ornate mantle]

And then there's an Orgy.

[somber halo]

but im working and doing ok now

[ornate mantle]

[warm epoch]

yeah

harem

I don't like it

[clear gate]

Having work is good

[warm epoch]

[ornate mantle]

I don't mind harem at all.

I just hate how Wuxia is so one dimensional.

[somber halo]

idk why ppl mind harem animes

[clear gate]

I don't mind harem but a lot of it is completely forgettable for me

[warm epoch]

braindead mc

Most of the females suck

[ornate mantle]

I use Infinite Stratos as my measuring stick.

[clear gate]

Harem doesn't put me off, generic execution of it does

[warm epoch]

Like please

[ornate mantle]

To determine how I like a MC.

[warm epoch]

You can't not notice things

No one is like that

What revy said about harem

[somber halo]

well ya know i always make the male characters disappear

and only focus on who is best girl

[warm epoch]

The closet harem I think I like is konosuba

[ornate mantle]

My favorite picture ever.

[clear gate]

I actually didn't like Konosuba much and generally failed to see what people saw in it

[warm epoch]

The comedy

[ornate mantle]

Oh man I love the Konosuba LN.

[warm epoch]

[clear gate]

I guess the comedy just didn't resonate with me

[ornate mantle]

I'll be honest I love most LN I read.

[warm epoch]

I see

Just like how harem for me

[ornate mantle]

I can get behind effectively any genre as long as the story is worthwhile.

[warm epoch]

Well the whole point of konosuba

is the dumb shit kazume goes through

[ornate mantle]

It's the funniest shit to me.

But I love Aqua.

10/10 would become Axis Cultist.

[warm epoch]

Wow

that cult that worships aqua are insane

[ornate mantle]

They're fucking nuts man.

LMAO>

[warm epoch]

The thing I remember is the scene where kazuma just stares at some couple in a hot spring

Then a dude screaming "I hate soap"

[ornate mantle]

"I'll sell you this piece of shit and a stick of gum for your life posessions... and I'll throw in a limited time rock!'

[somber halo]

actually i only dislike the shounen genre because of the amount of episodes and men in it

[warm epoch]

I mean it's shounen

[ornate mantle]

Shounen is a sausage fest.

[warm epoch]

It's gonna be full of big tit waifus and lots of action

[ornate mantle]

But, sometimes it's pretty cool with the potential waifus.

[warm epoch]

because teens

[somber halo]

people like shounen for the action scenes

[ornate mantle]

Well they gotta solve the birth rate problem in japan somehow.

But they unknowingly perpetuate it.

[warm epoch]

isn't japan in a super low rate

[somber halo]

this is so sad

[warm epoch]

That the deathrate is higher then br

[somber halo]

can we get some Fs in the chat

[ornate mantle]

F

[somber halo]

[ornate mantle]

Typing is hard.

[warm epoch]

They've made so much 2d

That most of the men in japan only like 2d

and gave up on 3d

[somber halo]

tuping on phone os hard

[ornate mantle]

[warm epoch]

idk why

but I only watch shokugeki

To see the recipes

Then try them

I also read the manga

It went from wow

To complete garbage

I had no clue what happen

[ornate mantle]

I watch Shoukugeki for Erina.

Those breasts are MM MM Good.

[warm epoch]

lol

[ornate mantle]

Wait I forgot I needed food.

[warm epoch]

Food?

What is that

[celest sinew]

@ornate mantle Did u read the manga?

Final arc is bullshit

[warm epoch]

Eyy

Someone knows whats up

it's complete garbage

[celest sinew]

I don't

The epilogue looks really good

[warm epoch]

Only thing worth seeing is souma's mom

[celest sinew]

I hope they change that entire shit on the anime

[warm epoch]

Thats about it

I don't think it's getting another season

[celest sinew]

It does

[warm epoch]

Whattt

[celest sinew]

End of this year

[warm epoch]

Well they're gonna have to make a new route

[celest sinew]

It's supposed to get a 4th season

[warm epoch]

The last arc is horrible

it made no sense

[celest sinew]

I hope they make something like Akame ga Kill

And kill everyone

[warm epoch]

LOL

[celest sinew]

Agk anime ending looks interesting

But manga one is better

[warm epoch]

Chaos dragon tried to be agk

But failed

[somber halo]

help, im freeOng my ass off in califonia summer

im getting starbucks rn to warm myself up

[ornate mantle]

@celest sinew : which final arc?

Talking about Shokugeki?

[warm epoch]

shokugeki's final arc

Someone cooked with a chainsaw

Random people popped out of no where

The plot went haywire

[brittle ravine]

One stage left

[clear gate]

I recommend going the high DPS route for the 12-4 boss as opposed to tanking it out, I found that works better for me

[brittle ravine]

Does this fleet enough?

[clear gate]

You want some bulk in the frontline, but mostly DPS

You should be ok with that I think

If it's having trouble, maybe switch out Lusty for someone who hits harder

[brittle ravine]

Bulk?

[clear gate]

Bulk, as in durability

[brittle ravine]

I use fire supressor for illust cuz she died really quickly than aya

[clear gate]

Normally I use something like this

Ibuki is normally not there, I typically have another tanky unit in the front

[ornate mantle]

@warm epoch : yeah it went pretty nutty.

I just hope souma got a waifu.

[brittle ravine]

I've already use that fleet and it's fail (12-2)

Also, i can't oath Nagato yet

[clear gate]

Normally I use Eldridge instead of Ibuki to have additional bulk

That was during the clearing phase

But I'm on safe now

so I'm good

[brittle ravine]

My Ibuki still not max yet. Even of Eldridge

[warm epoch]

What would a good 1:1 with hood be?

or 1:2

[clear gate]

Depends entirely on where you're farming

[warm epoch]

I just need a vanguard that doesn't steal mvp from hood

[brittle ravine]

6-4 i think

And use low dmg gun for Vanguard

[clear gate]

Vanguard that doesn't steal MvP? Phoenix probably

[warm epoch]

she steals mvp

[clear gate]

with lousy guns

or no guns

[warm epoch]

Ohh

[clear gate]

Or Cassin/Downes

[warm epoch]

That could work

Yeah I was doing cassin
