Sandalphon thinks he got better and is normal about Lucifer, but then Lucifer turns around and Sandalphon can't help but stare at whoever is daring to take away Lucifer's attention from him

If Sandalphon ever slips, Danchou will bully him for reminding that he tried to destroy the world just to get Lucifer attention

And I wonder how hard Sandalphon would relapse if he ever saw Lucifer fighting, looking less soft, no less beautiful, but more fitting the title of Ultimate Weapon bestowed upon him by astrals, with Lucifer looking down at the unfortunate and so lucky enemy, who is getting such perfect view and Sandalphon just wishing he was one beneath

Unfortunately, Lucifer still can't notice sexual tension and thinks that Sandalphon is uncomfortable, seeing him in more fighting state, maybe even being reminded when he got sent to Pandemonium. Sandalphon is going insane, Belial is having time of his day, Lucio can't help, but tease and Shalem and Fediel are trying to explain this fuckery to Lucifer

And I am definitely projecting, but whatever, sounds funny

Happy birthday! 💖

Meanwhile Lu Woh is trying to deal with Lucilius, who unfortunately recovered after that trauma, but guess Ewiyar will just show him his place 💖

Sandalphon? Normal about Lucifer? oh he's in denial. he'll never be normal.

obviously we're always ready to remind him how he fucked up, that's what we're here for <3

There's definitely a bit of projecting here but it's true Lucifer would be very hot this way. It'd probably drive Sandalphon crazy just how good he looks like this and everyone is ready to make fun of him. Which is the best thing for all of us. sucks for Sandy though!

And thank you <3

aND DLKJFDKLF. yeah honestly just throw Ewiyar at them, that's what's best to do!

I'm really sorry to say this, I know Metera is doing her best to be Miss Fanservice in the Versus roster, but she doesn't impress me as much as Belial does

Maybe it's her personality, maybe it's because you see women with huge breasts everywhere in Anime but have to seriously look for a man like Belial who is more than happy to show off what he's got

Maybe I'm not bisexual enough for her

Another thing that bothers me is that her original sprite didn't actually have those big bahonkeroos she's sporting now, y'know

Meanwhile Belial has always been packing pecs

Idk I just wanted to complain 😕

HELPP

i kinda understand. Metera kinda falls in this "try hard" to be horny that for me it doesn't work out. She does that mostly to have fun and not like, out of pure horny, and it can be fun as a result, but i don't really feel attracted to her either. (and i think i made it clear from raving about Miss Cathy that my problem isn't sexy women, it's just, how they're going about it)

And actually yeah i'm so upset about her boobs too. Like, in her original sprite she was sexy and everything but she did look like more "flat" than most of the women in the game, and i thought it was kinda interesting to have a woman being extremely sexy without relying on just giving her big boobs and leaving it at that. But then the more they went on with her arts the more they gave her and by the time of her summer units it's just, unrecognizable lmao.

i mean good for her for the boobjob i guess, but idk, i think she worked a lot better on her original art.

(tho i gotta say i do have a soft spot for her capped holiday look, since it doesn't focus much on her body and just on her mischief face, i find her cute)

I didn't read a lot of her stories, i've heard she's supposed to be a big sister, so perhaps her relationship with her sisters would eventually give me more insight on her. In the end i've only ever really seen it with her Holiday lines (bc one of my crewmate is HAUNTED by the way she sings Happy Birthday in a lewd way (and not the good kind of haunted) so a while back our crew made an app in which we all set up bday message for him, but all while Metera's bday voiceline plays in the back, and he was laughing so hard and touched while also cursing us, so now i just see Metera as a partner in crime), her quick appearance in Ferry Holiday's FE, and her appearance in the latest Lowain event. So to me it isn't enough to grasp most of her.

I'd say it's a bit difficult to compare her to Belial because ultimately, she is written to be fanservicy, in a very "male gaze" way. and Belial doesn't really come with this baggage, especially since his sexuality is more linked to characterization (and also an aspect of how you're supposed to be thrown off by it, though counting also on the people who would be turned on by it). (and just so we're clear I do think that some of the girl's sexuality can also be written as characterization over fanservice, imo this is the difference between Shalem and Fediel, who's sexuality is meant to be furthering their characters, and Hekate or Metera who has a much more fanservicy flare to it).

That said it's true that Belial is completely one of the kind, i don't really think most stories dare to go to these levels with their male characters, especially mobage. When you trace back the fan-reaction of most stuff gbf, for a long time, like a lot of gacha, the whole interest was mostly to keep the straight men's money. This is why for a long while we didn't have summer units for men. this is also why when they started to roll them it was only one a year, until they finally dared to do more later, compared to the amount of female summer units we get every year. I remember the turn about is supposed to have been Percival apparently, who, just after he joined the suptix pool, became the most suptixed character who brought them the most money at the time. And it was the turn around about how they realized they could actually do more to appeal to the male-attracted fanbase. Which is why he was the first Male Summer Unit also.

The thing is that it's really not usual for gacha like this to really bank a lot on what's considered to be the straight woman audience. Granblue has been the talk of a lot of mobage space for always being the "first" to really incorporate some male fanservice in their gacha where female fanservice is much more expected.

Belial probably wasn't expected to become the next step of that, but he really turned things around in a very unexpected way. Truly a man with a will on his own so much so that he changes the fanservice game all on his own. And i do think it may have cygames discuss what they can do to reproduce this success that has been bringing them even more money than any of the female fanservice stuff they've been releasing. Without the reaction to Belial i doubt we would have had anything like vday Wilnas for example.

anyway lots of ramblings but, yeah, Belial really is a beast of his own and really just, his sexuality kinda went off the rail in a sense which also makes it more raw and authentic. Metera is mostly just a safe fanservicy representation for example, but frankly i feel like the comparison doesn't even have much ground to exist due to the nature of how they came to be.

SO YEAH ramble ramble on my hand, sorry Metera your sexy spells don't work on us, i find her hilarious tho and it's all that matters to me o7
