damn I missed this feeling of rejoice knowing Goku has arrived. It's been so long.

Compared to the ulimited and unimaginable awe and grandeur of that art which paints itself we humans must be nothing more than a mote of dust, but rejoice, for us dirty apes are another one of it's beautiful works and the only one capable of recognizing how truly sophisticated they are - the techniques of our progenitor.

To rejoice is to lapse
Fool yourself and repent
Mirth will soon turn into woe
Reveries to contempt


If I were you I would now bring the curtain down
Accept my lot and thus fathom out my own bounds
If I were you I would rue the day when I was born
Cleanse all in life and redeem myself from scorn

Remember these words when tide is turning
The less you hope for, the less you suffer
If you dare to trust, then you shall shatter
Lunge from the heights and fall to smithereens

Apropos of Hana's announcement, let us rejoice in this clip of her performing with Murashige. I cannot recall ever seeing much interaction between the two, and indeed they seem to possess somewhat different personalities, but in this performance they together have the crowd laughing aplenty.

Tsukasa made her way to a cliff facing the moon. Remembering the course of the heavenly bodies was bothersome enough to meet with her associate, but dealing with her was even worse. Tsukasa had to wait until the big orb in the sky reached a certain point until a figure wrapped in black wings shot out from the night sky and unfurled before her. Blonde hair and a red bow, seems to be a common thing among Makai demons. What set her apart was a glowing red star on her left cheek. Coupled with the ridiculously long katana she held in her left hand, she surely would have been imposing to any unaware voyeurs.

“REJOICE! I, the Eastern Star, Spawn of the Dark One, have descended on this mortal plane!” Her blade shimmered in the moonlight, the tip stained with a drop of blood, before transforming into a far less imposing star-shaped wand.

“Well, Miss Eastern Star, you shouldn’t shout and announce our meeting place in the dead of night! And flying through the night sky just makes you more conspicuous, even if your wings are black.” This wasn’t the first time Elis had pulled this stunt, but Tsukasa knew better than to hope this would be the last time.

“They’re not black, they’re EBON! There’s a huge difference! Black is the color of evil and despair, ebon is the color of avengers and bats!”

“I don’t care. Listen, what is so important that you had to call me out today? Did the tengu track you down?” As stupid as this girl could be, her magic was powerful. There was no way Aya could have found out who she was with how little evidence there possibly could have been to reveal her.

“HAHAHAHAHAHA! No mere crow could ever hope to trace my magic! As soon as she even thinks about me, I know about it and the Cursed Seal of Unholy Blood Rites causes her unbearable pain! The only way she’d ever stop the pain is by seeing me directly, and I only show myself in the moon’s silvery glow, just like you said to!”

Tsukasa pinched her nose. “When did I ever say that?”

“Back when we infiltrated the Hag of Holes’ fortress! You had me wear those chains to wear so I could hide my true power and avoid scaring the innocent mortals while investigating the Irresistable Arousal Source hidden in the core of her dastardly domain! Only the moon’s glow can hold back my power, bequeathed to-”

“STOP, stop it, Elis! Just tell me why you called me out here already!” Even Tsukasa couldn’t believe how easily this girl believed the bullshit she fed her. It’s a miracle and disaster she slipped out of her mother’s supervision with how huge her delusions of grandeur are.

“Ah, right. I have to show you my newest disciple! I saw her in a graveyard, hunched over and immobile. Her skin was pale white, so I knew immediately she was a fellow user of unholy sorcery like me. But, she can’t control her power like I can, so I took her under my wing. Literally!” With a flourish of her wand, the demon pointed at her right wing. Materializing in reality was a corpse Tsukasa recognized from the HSE’s second-most perverted hermit. The only change to her outfit was a star hastily drawn on her forehead’s ofuda.

“Where did you say you stole her from again? Wherever Yoshika is, she’s never too far from Seiga.”
“Oh, some graveyard near the village. A green-haired hag and some blue-haired liberal were arguing about turtles or something.”

“Yoshika, what do you think about this?” Tsukasa wasn’t completely sure how this whole jiangshi-necromancy business worked, so she wanted to at least confirm her loyalty.

“I’m Pallid Phantom, faithful apprentice to the Eastern Star, Peon of Chaotic Forces…” the poor girl kept rambling off meaningless titles with either “Dark” or “Chaos” in them.

“Uhhh… Good job. Keep up the good work. You’re dismissed, Elis.”

“It’s Eastern Star! Come, Pallid Phantom! We must away into the depths of night! Our work won’t be done until the Hole Hag’s wicked empire crumbles and peace is restored to Gensokyo!” Casting a spell to summon tendrils of dark energy around her, Elis took her captive apprentice in her arms and flapped her wings, taking off into the night. Finally, it was quiet enough for Tsukasa to think.

Tsukasa wasn’t completely lying to that devil. She really was going to dismantle the HSE. But peace definitely wouldn’t follow. No, in Elis’ terms, it would be pure, unadulterated chaos.

(Part 6)

Man, I should probably sleep or something. This is the last Tsukasa POV, I'll get back to Aya with the long-teased "Aya teaches Chen about lying" fluff. Thx 4 waiting warmly.

Archived as well so don't rejoice

It isn't, but, contrary to Futo or Seiga for example, she does seek its higher form (Celestialhood).
>Seiga (biased, yes) called it a grander revival than Jesus
Prince Shotoku's national myth does paint him as a nearly miraculous figure, and the phantoms in TD did rejoice at his/her revival for this reason. There's also the possibility that Miko isn't literally Prince Shotoku revived, but rather his legend manifested in Gensokyo (like other embodied myths) as a person, which would further reinforce the stupendousness of it.

Jesus was also revived as more than a man, so something something parallels.

As much as I agree, I will rejoice every time she uses the shrine maiden outfit

RIP poster count, samefags rejoice

What NN is fucking doing to keep new players on?

Fucking hell first farmable stage has fucking metal, too many HP and just for a change she's also not so friendly against Yin units. We are all well aware that we got plenty of cheap and strong metal units in the L1 universe, like erm...Mike, Nazrin aaaaaaaand that's it, not even sure if my 9sp Nazrin can pull it off

Before someone names her:
>she can't 1t 5sp it at pink earth with FR plus 2.0 upgrades

Before someone else names Kanako and Daiyousei bonking people out of existence, I'm just talking about new players and who in the fuck is willing to randomly waste resources or money to 2.0 the fuck out of them?

Before another someone else names "killers" or whoever, we are still talking about limited unit availability on the box of a new player

Yes we do have buddy system, good fucking farming it manually

Yes, other units with different elements on which Tewi it's neutral against, they will certainly work, feel free to name them, just keep A universe units out, specially all the ones who had nearly 0 reruns or were tossed into bloated banners with no spark option.

It's a fucking shame, I'm trying to keep this shit as cheap and minimalist as possible just to see how new players will struggle just for one fucking stage.

Right now (all units are at 12sp and all named units with a FR are at 14sp with SP cost reduction):

FR Yuugi can't 5sp it, she gets close, but despite Standing Shrine Maiden card buff (which is very accessible to new fucking players) she can't continuously 1t it, needs 10sp minimum and even then there is that RNG damage that will probably fuck it up

FR Suika, didn't try, she was a fucking disappointment

I still have to FR Kanako and Daiyousei

PCB Ran, she just can't, she just needs 12sp

MoF Kanako ditto

MoF Suwako 1t it at 5sp

L1 Mike 1t it at 5sp

L1 Ibaraki Armjobby~chan 1t it at 5sp

EoSD Tenshi 1t it at 5sp but I think that Koumakan Anniversary it's really needed

B5 Merlin, rejoice B5 and Prismriver haters, she can't 5sp it, but she can 1t 8sp it

PCB(A) Sakuya 1t it at 5sp

EoSD Youmu 1t it at 5sp

Black Lotus Youmu 1t it at 8sp despite FR + 2.0 buffs

E1 Koakuma oddly enough she fucking nukes it at 5sp

->cont
