@Gaming_King:

Normally I just ignore your posts as they are normally just creepy, but this little comment of yours has forced me out of hiding.

To be perfectly blunt, I wrote Luna/Sena/Trinity based on the personalities given them by the original writer and voice actors/actresses, not to adhere to your questionable predilections. If you have a problem with Luna's characterization, so be it; not everyone is going to like how I do things. HOWEVER, making stupid, baseless comments like "Luna is a prostitute, or rather a prostitot" is borderline insulting.

In short, stop being a tool.

Okay, buddy, first of all, YOU just directly attacked my character, and pretty much called me what Luna might call Ragna. I thought this forum was above that.

Secondly, I'm not insulting YOU in the slightest, though I do find the way you translated all that "pedophobic" stuff needlessly offensive, basically saying it as badly as English can as opposed to the medium level the Japanese offers. That aside, I don't blame you AT ALL for Luna's stupid-ass character. You just jumped to an insane conclusion like the average slime on GameFAQs.

Now I'm not a frickin' lolicon, and neither is Ragna, and I'm MUCH more angry at Arc than at you guys. I think you guys probably made it worse, but I'm not bringing that against you without an original script translated straight without alteration. So we have no beef. Anyway, your fierceness is pretty fun. Friends? ^__^

Gawd, I love her so frickin' much. X3

Use this tone with me one more time and consider yourself banned.

You have been warned.

Don't insult Ragna, you!

And Sena isn't -your mother is a classy lady- polite, he just pretends he is. Carl is the polite shota, but he isn't cool, either. Luna is a prostitute, or rather a prostitot.

You just complained that people are attacking your character based off what you've been saying, and you're doing the same exact thing here. You're taking lines of text (faithfully translated I'm sure, because localization and translation companies know better than to do that sloppily these days... there's so much noise raised if it's not) and making huge ASSUMPTIONS that you state as fact. Other posters above were relaying lines of dialog as a basis for their statements while you are extrapolating from said lines because you disagree. You're not backing up your statements.

We can have civilized discussions, right? Agree to disagree if necessary? Everyone has their own ideas and no one needs to go insulting someone else because they think differently. Rein in the anger and back your statements with facts, please, and things will go more smoothly.

Friendly forum is friendly. These are just games, guys. They're supposed to be fun.

Can I not elicit even a sarcastic quip?

IT BEGINS

But seriously, I'm finding it a bit unsettling that the main reason you hate Luna is because she called Ragna a pedophile. Just saying.

Oh boy, I didn't even need to mention Makoto. And yes GK I still like her, I still main her and I still will use her to the best of my abilities at the tournament I am entered into on campus. To address your comment, really? I mean seriously. You get worked up because Luna calls Ragna a pedo, Rachel herself jokes with the idea of Ragna possibly being a pedo and proceeds to jokingly explain what a pedo is before she was cut off. Yet you don't seem bothered by that Mr. "Racheywoo" and then when someone expresses a counter opinion you seem to like to run down characters defended and in this case for some reason liken them to prostitutes. First, Luna in spirit is probably no older then 12 and happens to be quite rude and has a sharper tongue with a penchant for speaking a lot more crassly then most adults do in social situations. Second, we get it and know Makoto is scantily dressed, though if you looked at the artbooks her clothes are made to give her tail the freedom and mobility it needs. Underboob? Sure it may be fanservice, but in retrospect each character, especially the female cast is fetish fuel for somebody. Hell sometimes they even lampshade this in the dialogue to further point out such.
Lolicon GK? You keep saying this word, but I do not think you know what it means.
Really though. Look at Rachel past the elegant dress and she's about as developed as a young girl and her decelerated aging due to her vampire linage keeps her looking that young. So one might ascertain over the way you fawn over her (almost to a weird level even for my tastes. And this coming from the self-admitted lover of loli and loli looking women) that you are a lolicon yourself and a vampire fetishist.
And lastly. I see no reason to get on Magna's case or mine because of Luna calling Ragna a pedo. I think it fits since he's likened to being a lolicon and since not many outside the anime subculture may not know that was probably the best way to go with in dialogue and not lose any of the impact of her lines.
Whew that said .. I still plan on maining the hell out of Makoto and Luna/Sena/Trinity given her styles match my gameplay style.

You know, I almost missed you, Gaming King.

Almost.

By the way, it's generally a really bad idea to mouth off to a mod. Especially if you want to continue posting here. Just saying.

All right, now that everyone has blown off a little steam (including me), I do want to say this so that there's no chilling effect in the forums: I personally welcome constructive criticism (I am far from perfect) and as a rule, everyone here encourages holy wars, debate, arguments, etceteras with the caveat that there is some sort of logic/reason behind your arguments.

And images such as the ones above are definitely encouraged, especially the Citizen Kane(?) one.

Now, back to lurk mode.

I personally think you did a wonderful job with the script, Magna_Mixalis. Platinum's lines in the game were some of the funniest ones, IMO, and you should be quite proud of your work.

As did I. I still love Ragna's reaction to being called a pedo.

Just to let you know, pretty much every scene with Luna/Sena/Trinity in it had me rolling on the floor laughing for weeks alone. The whole game was great, but I was quoting those scenes to friends for a long time. The only character I quoted more was Hazama. MAYBE.

Personally I thought Trinity on the whole, mainly the two child personas got some of the best shots in on Ragna. Sure Rachel got a few in, but Luna mainly took Ragna to the cleaners.

After seeing all of Platinum's special attack names, I'm wondering how someone could miss her being a magical girl when all of the names of her special attacks are actually taken (or perhaps STOLEN) from several magical girl anime.

Don't forget that her Astral Heat is Starlight Breaker.
