Summary:

Being sent to live in a dilapidated farm with a person they can barely stand for an indefinite amount of time felt like a cruel and unusual punishment to Nayuta and like it should be the premise of some cozy romance game to Touka, were it not Nayuta that she was stuck with.

After their fields begin to function, Nayuta insists that there are lights floating around at night and a dark figure sneaking around, and she will stab it with a pitchfork if she absolutely must. Touka thinks she should be sent to a psych ward for it.

Touka wants everyone to stop asking her to do farm work and thinks their hired help is excessively mean to her, yet feels the need to unveil whatever secrets that helper may be hiding. Nayuta thinks Touka has simply never had a crush before.

Nemu would prefer it if the Satomi cousins stopped making her blood pressure spike. Rumors of a planned regicide, the special ops officers at the inn, and the locals' increasing tendency to go into the forest without a talisman were bad enough before she encountered Touka "I Am Going To Make Bad Decisions" Satomi.

The discovery of two younger girls causes a chain reaction that will change the hierarchy of Magical Girls for years to come.

Rating: M for Mature

Warnings: Violence, Depiction of Suicide

Tags: Alternate Universe, Ancient History, Aged Up Characters

Summary: It was a time of peace during a period of war. Various City-States in Japan had feuded with each other for decades, trying to conquer one another. At the center of these battles were young women who commanded spirits known as Witches. These Witch Charmers drew upon the abilities of the Witches, and gained power from them as well.

A Witch Charmer from Chuo City is invited to Shinsei City by it’s leader, Lord Nanami, to investigate a series of assaults that have recently plagued the city. This woman, Rika Ayano, was noted for her mastery of her Witch, Belladonna, and the powers it granted her, but was too young to participate in the war when she became a Charmer, and thus had no combat experience.

Nevertheless, Rika takes the mission, looking for an opportunity to put her powers to the test, as well as to see Shinsei now that there’s a peace between the City States. She arrives, ready to begin her investigation, and while none have seen the assailant responsible for the attacks, the populace does suspect someone: a mysterious woman spoken in hushed tones known as the Walking Corpse…

While exploring a clifftop ruined city once said to float above the clouds, she has an encounter with a beautiful winged girl, Masara Kagami, who has never once taken flight. This chance meeting, seemingly innocuous, will change the course of both of their lives. What can awaken the desire to fly in a girl that feels nothing?

Title: achilles, come down

Author: @resident-normal-person

Artist: @sicksweetcreamy (art for fic here!)

Pairings: None

Warnings: None

Tags: Character Study, Songfic, Dysfunctional Family, Minor Character Death, Mental Health Issues

Summary:

Tsuruno was strong; she was taller than her older sister and showed no signs of stopping anytime soon. She’d always been stronger and faster than most of her classmates. With magical powers, physical fights wouldn’t be a problem. As Kyubey promised, she won the 800 million yen lottery.

Is it worth it, to be the mightiest?

which Halloween unit would you recommend to pull for the most

Getting to this a little late but let's go. It's kind of hard to say that one is objectively the best so I'm just gonna quickly go through each one and talk a lil about them.

Okay so we got uhhh Vampire Kanagi, Sister Momoko, Halloween Alina & Karin, Dark Mitama, Dark Kanagi, and now Vampire Yuna & Juri.

Sister Momoko: Right away I can say that Sister Momoko is probably the worst option here. There are better charge conservation girls out there, even including unlimiteds. Even for plain old damage dealing, you can do better.

Vampire Kanagi: When she came out she was one of the best, and now she's more midtier compared to her competitors. However I don't think she's a bad unit and she can allow for fun solo strategies.

Halloween Karin & Alina: Kinda just got powercrept by Yuna & Juri for magia flame damage, but I think they' still serve a decent purpose. A few things on they're still fine-ish. They should give good flame magia damage, it's just they don't instantly get MP on turn 1/2 like a lot of new units do. Their Dazzle stuff gives them a way to increase damage by attacking the enemy's defenses and not just endlessly increasing offensive buffs on themselves, but I was kinda surprised to see that they don't have a passive source of addict killer on them. But if you want a good flame magia unit, you'll want to get the newer halloween girls.

alright the last three are the ones you'll probably be the most interested in rolling for.

Darkness Kanagi: Great for solo mirrors if you don't have a blaster already and good for murdering most content/farming. She's a complete powerhouse and very good at what she does. IMO getting her depends on what kind of units you already have. If you have a 4s Ashley or something like that, you can skip.

Darkness Mitama: The queen of ranked mirrors. If you want to do well in ranked, you'll need her. She can help in pve content but in more limited ways-- for example, she helped me in Battle Museum against a few enemies but there's usually better gals to use out there. She's one of the best pvp supports basically and an interesting unit overall.

Vampire Yuna & Juri: Well right away we can go ahead and say that this'll be one of the best flame magia gals in the game for a while, especially for the new Kimochi coming out. She'll (probably?) have an edge over Gunhild thanks to their random attack pattern, meaning that she can hit the same enemy multiple times.

However, one thing that sets them apart slightly is that sooo much of their damage is wrapped up in their attack up at critical health, and that is going to be a struggle occasionally. Let's take Kimochi right? You've got units like Madoka & Iroha or the newly released Scene 0 Madoka who will help with MP regen/restore. They're great for making sure you replenish mp to endlessly repeat doppels.

Except oops! MadoIro will also heal your team to full! And YuJu here can only damage their health once every 7 turns! Woops. Scene zero madoka will also heal your team! Guess you can't use her....

There are a bunch of units you still can use, like Mayu or Kuroe (or even OG Madoka) but Vampire Yuna & Juri mean you need to commit to your playstyle. Vampire Yuna & Juri also don't get a freshly applied barrier every time they doppel/magia, meaning you need to worry about them dying too. For reference, a Madoka & Iroha barrier on doppel will prevent 8k damage, and Vamp YuJu here will prevent 10k. That's still a lot but if you've ever used MadoIro before, you'll know that those barriers wear out faster than you think.

That said, I think they'll be a fantastic flame unit for Kimochi and stuff like Battle Museum (if we ever get it again) or Witches' Paradox (if we ever get that again). They've got a really interesting design for a magia unit and I think it's neat that the game made their gameplay sort of not quite match up with what we've had before-- you can't just stick them and MadoIro on a team together and think that things will work out all fine and swell.

So I can't really say you need to roll for any of them-- just that if you are missing spots in your catalogue of magical girls (farming blaster, ranked debuffer, or wtf flame magia damage), then the last released three are worth considering.

Welp goodbye Magia Record. Anyway here's a final list of my girls.

All in all I'm pretty proud of it, I managed to get all my tart girls back, all the holy quintet plus nagisa, and almost all the void girls(the only exception being Yuu).

The MVPs of my time in this server would have to be Yozuru, Vampire Kanagi, Mitsune, and occasionally Tanabata Yachiyo.

I pulled Yozuru from one of the copper bags when I first joined during the anniversary, and she allowed me to just breeze through the main story and events with ease, and due to her being void I was able to do decent damage in the Kimochi battles even when I didn't have a peak meta.

Anyway here's my NA girls for comparison

As you can tell there were a lot fewer, but overall I do appreciate the time I spent on na still. Unfortunately because I had to rely on the archive app I couldn't accurately tell how many slots girls had or which ones had dopples but that's fine.

I'm still so proud that I was able to get all the Darc girls in that server.

I still can't believe how much I latched onto Mito when I read her event the first time, I was planning on saving my gems then I read her story and when fuck it and pulled for her and got lucky.

I will say that if there are any girls I do regret pulling for it would have to be the fate gals unfortunately.

Anyway it's been fun!!!

gameplay wise val gives me similar vibes to vampire kanagi from magia record (rip) in that in theory their defenses aren't very good but in practice they stack so many evasion boosts that it's hard to actually land a hit on them at all

The Dubiously Needed, Unnecessarily Extensive Magia Record Stat Sheet Guide (Rarity)

This is a bit of a weird one to start with. Rarity…has absolutely no influence on a character’s canonical strength. It is a purely gacha-based mechanic, intended to sort characters for a gacha-based purpose. Really, it has no place in an OC guide. It’s not like we’re going to be pumping out mods with our own OCs tomorrow. (Though, if we do that, hit me up, I would be so down.)

However…a character’s rarity does influence a unit’s stats. So I felt like it would be wrong of me not to mention it. A 2⋆ unit and a 3⋆ unit with the same type and growth type will have different stats and that can be disorienting. So, here’s a quick overview.

A character’s base rarity can be anything from ⋆ to ⋆⋆⋆⋆. 1 ⋆ characters are generally not included in the gacha and are instead given out for free or bought in an event shop. 2 ⋆ and 3 ⋆ characters can be either bought in an event shop or rolled in the gacha. 4 ⋆ characters are almost always gacha-exclusive. In this context, stars determine a character’s rarity.

The more stars a character has, the stronger their base stats are. This can be evened out to some degree with Awakening, where any character can be raised up to 5 ⋆ with the stats to match. However, a character with a higher rarity will always have a higher stat total than a character with a lower rarity.

To give you an example, here are two units of two different rarities, but the same element, type, and growth type, at maximum Awakening. Keep in mind that this is without memoria, Spirit Enhancement or Attribute Enhancement.

Tsuruno Yui (2⋆, Flame, Magia Type, ATTACK Growth Type)

HP: 18,927

ATK: 8,552

DEF: 6,056

Touka Satomi (4⋆, Flame, Magia Type, ATTACK Growth Type)

HP: 21,019

ATK: 9,803

DEF: 6,072

Though Tsuruno and Touka both have Attack-focused stats, it is Touka with the higher Attack stat, as she has the higher rarity. She also has higher HP and slightly higher Defense.

What does this mean for character creation? Uh…well, it could mean something, or it could mean nothing. It really depends on how specific you want to be with your stat totals.

How you decide your characters’ rarity is totally up to you. You could rank them lowest to highest, based on their level of skill. Or you could make them all 4⋆ because you love them! This is totally valid! I have done the same thing many times.

As a final note, there is some difference between unlimited and limited 4⋆. This is another purely gacha-based designation. Unlimited characters can be pulled on any banner at any time, while limited characters are only available on a banner for a specified period. This does not matter for us. What DOES matter is that limited characters often have better stats than unlimited characters, because gacha games gotta make that money. Example part 2!

Ren Isuzu (4⋆, Dark, Magia Type, BALANCE Growth Type)

HP: 21,420

ATK: 9,128

DEF: 6,844

Kanagi Izumi - Vampire ver. (4⋆, Dark, Magia Type, BALANCE Growth Type)

HP: 22,524

ATK: 10,004

DEF: 7,016

As you can see, while Ren and Vampire Kanagi are both 4⋆, Vampire Kanagi has the higher total in each stat.

Not all of these differences are significant (Ren and Vampire Kanagi have like a 200-point difference in their Defense stats), but I wanted to mention it for any further discrepancies. Again, whether this matters to you or not is your own personal interpretation! I promise, nobody is going to yell at you if your unlimited OC’s ATK stat is 20 points past the unlimited threshold. They aren’t characters you can actually roll for, so balance is a meaningless concept and we're all just here to have fun!
