unfortunately this will probably make me start calling darknights trio "dreadful little polycule"

literally everything is a competition and ines always wins u cant beat her

That, and the cocoons don't even trigger if you're not in the tiles immediately adjacent to her. My first instinct was to bring Pozëmka and Rosa and burn her down from range, and I just never even dealt with the mechanic. On the one hand, it does feel like a bit of a thematic let-down, but on the other, "sacrifice is a skill issue" does definitely feel in-character for the Doctor lol

the way the chapter 14 boss mechanics go, you aren't supposed to be able to overcome the cocoon mechanic without making another operator sacrifice themselves in place of the cocooned operator. fitting, for a character that herself forces a dilemma of "one of us has to fall here—we can't both survive" at the chapter's climax. you have to choose; who gets to live and who gets to die?

that said it's pretty funny that you can cheese your way around the mechanic by retreating your operators just before they get cocooned. it's like it's saying there's always a third way. adding an illegal new empty track to the trolley problem

Big Arknights Ep 14 & Fate/Stay Night spoilers

Expanding on my "Theresa is a Saber" post with ch14 spoilers, I'd say the Myriad Souls resemble Heroic Spirits, more specifically Saber's state at the time of Stay Night: countless Lords of Fiends, countless heroes of the Sarkaz who are not allowed to rest even in death and keep raging against fate for all eternity, with the Sarkaz as a whole being unable to move on because they're still fighting wars that were long since over.

And at the end of the chapter they finally get the rest they deserve, no longer allowing the past cage them, even if they have regrets for the future they will no longer be able to live. Theresa's dream was that one day everyone on this land might fall in peaceful slumber, and it's something that she achieved, at least for the dead Sarkaz and for herself, even if she still sees and dreams about her loved ones as her consciousness fades away.

Just like a certain someone...

quick like point form thoughts on ch14 now that I finished it.

Honestly probs one of the better chapters of the victoria arc even if its supposed to be an ending it has way to many loose ends.

The good.

I really liked how they wrote wis'adel she made a really solid emotional core to the story and also did a really good job serving as just being an average person.

Loved Amiya's growth.

The followers keep being the gayest faction arknights has hg please just give them more then one node of focus.

Siege's plot keeps going a direction I find really interesting.

The bad

Do the writers for ak just hate ascalon girl keeps getting done so dirty every time she gets to do anything and all the teasing for her to get a big moment vs theresis in babel just amounted to nothing unless their saving it.

The kmc in general still sorta suck.

It's a shame I have to say this cause I think he's a fun character when he gets to be goofy but I hate how much every time logos in on screen it becomes the logos show cause the writers cant not have him do everything all the time. Which honestly sorta hurt amiya who is ya know also supposed to be a super strong caster ch13 handled their dynamic better tbh.

Arknights Ch14 spoilers

Did Amiya, Dr and Kal'tsit actually end up doing anything? I think that groups actually failed to stop anything they tried to.

The Teekaz Blood ritual got completed, Theresa and the Revenant got through to the portal and sent the First Originium to Theresis. Did defeating Theresa in the end do anything? That seemed more symbolic than anything since I think she was going to free the Myriad Souls either way.

I think the greatest impact they made to the Londominium Campaign is forcing the Nezchezer King to leave the battle vs the Dukes for a bit.
