Last night's scores. 九段 in IIDX34! Tried 十段 but it's pretty brutal, I'm happy I at least made it a little over halfway. Cleared some more 12 charts too!

tried to play some melty, I did 236C and the game just froze on this frame for like a solid 20 seconds. we thought the game crashed, it resumed and proceeded to kill Con who wasn't blocking lmfao

More bosses today. Got through the Nagas, and the Wendigo Horde. Took me an embarassingly long time to figure out what フード meant lmfao... Anyways, I noticed that the Samurai Zombies have their names gendered unlike in English. Male Zombies are ゾンビ, Female Zombies are ゾンミ. Neat.

Got a little fusion done. Figured out how to mine cards easier using OCR, did some quests, leveled up a bit more... Not too far before I'll be out of Naraku!

ニヤリ goes kinda hard. I had no idea it was onomatopoeia until I looked it up either.

Demon negotiation feels so stressful to do at this stage in the game lol. It's kinda evil that they give you a demon with an immediate weakness to several of the skills you encounter in the first room.

Took some time to get used to using LunaTranslator. Mostly using it for quick lookup of random kanji / dialogue, plus having it size up the blurry text is actually really nice.

In retrospect it's really funny that the "gauntlets" are literally just an iPhone strapped to your arm

I kinda wish we did get more random ass Samurai in the party, I thought the interactions with the rare few on the upside were really cool

I kinda wasn't expecting サムライ to be written out like that tbh

Melissa! 🔜 Eclipse/HOLIDAY HAVOC @melissa.guiltygear.gay · 03/10/2026

Oh my god, I just realized that ラグジュアリーズ and カジュアリティーズ is supposed to be Luxurors and Casualries. The way Casualries is written makes it kinda sound like Casualties though... Wonder if that's intentional lol

I don't really understand the use of 城城下町 here other than like Castle Lower City? But why double up on 城 ?

Melissa! 🔜 Eclipse/HOLIDAY HAVOC @melissa.guiltygear.gay · 03/10/2026

huh. I was expecting it to be written like ジョナタン, not ヨナタン. Interesting

Woahhh, okay, I kinda understand the Ikemen angle a bit more in JP, his voice is way more soft. The EN VA is still really good but damn he's kinda selling it here.

I'm a little sad that his "Hoy!" is おい, it has a slightly different vibe to it lol.

A while back I dug through the Jam server for Sin MU stuff and found a message by him saying this. I wish I could have done better while he was still around, but even if he didn't know I saw it, it was still something so motivating to read. Fuck man

A personal anecdote from him that means a lot to me. I thought about this a lot over the last year

Came to play PIU, instead I got into a 1.5 hour arena session with another player where I proceeded to clear my first 12 and rank up to B4!

Today's IIDX Session: got my first 10 FC, and cleared Holic SPA. Also got Ventriloquist SPA AA and raised my arena rating to B5. I also inadvertently cleared all rooms of Step Up!
