The return of Berserker Karja. Or more like Rollo manifesting inside her.
I loved her first battle in chapter 6 so a rematch is very welcome!
Im loving the game so much, such a joy to play a new one from Nihon Falcom (my second favorite studio), its filled with the tender moments between the crew and the wholesomeness that I adore so much from them. Also the theme of the sea is special for me ever since I played Atelier Totori, and Ys X feels very much like Atelier Totori but Action-RPG, with the sea exploration on a ship, all those islands, the Alanya-like harbor towns, etc, Im jubilating.")

Now THIS fight, it was something!! I first tried it when I discovered the island but had to come back to it later after grinding to level 99, getting all the best gear and enhancing it, optimizing mana orbs and lines, etc. I also took too much time to figure out the correct strategy to use the accessories that boost break damage while sacrificing health damage and vice versa, to have Karja be the breaker and Adol be the attacker. I was main-ing Karja for most of the game so I had not trained/optimized Adol until that point, but with his ATK stat getting close to Karjas after all my grinding and optimizing, it could work now. Vermodrs barrier was still a pain to break (and the sucker pulls it back up several times at that, even one last time when it has 1% HP left and you cant avoid it, what a troll), but thankfully his HP went down fast once the barrier was down (when I could manage to land a hit, that is). I didnt want to but I shamefully had to resort to equipping one of the items that revive you once if you die, and it got used, but I dont regret it because after more than one hour trying to beat it at 2AM, I wanted to finish it. Thats how much that boss drove me into a corner. It was quite crazy and Im impressed at the level of difficulty that they crafted with this, perfect for an extra boss. And its still fair, even though its extremely difficult especially in Inferno. The addition of the random lightning bolts all around the map coming in waves (and all the time in the second half of the fight) really added another level of insane difficulty, not only you have to make the right moves based on its attacks, but you also have to avoid or somehow dodge the lightning bolts! Lastly, how you have to pray that the boss doesnt attack you during the last few milliseconds of the reviving of the other character (when the invincibility period is over), is down to luck as always.
That was one hell of an achievement! Im pretty sure that was the hardest boss of the game. Unless theres more extra bosses after you beat the game. Aegir have mercy.
Also the fight was so intense that it even broke the game and caused some clipping at 2:48!

This guy keeps being so meta and its just so refreshing. My favorite of the 3 admins so far.

Chuunibyou Firis has arrived!! Mind you, I wasnt lucky enough to get her via the gacha (it was to be expected). With Sailor Totori coming up and my pity going for her in priority, I wonder if Ill ever be able to get Chuunibyou Firis. But I must!!
Firis got the power of chuunibyou finally in Atelier Resleriana. Already inspired by Revy as seen in a certain cutscene from Atelier Lydie & Suelle, she was showing potential. Now she has awakened to the forbidden truths of the black arts and will pour out her wrath on all the sinful in her sight!
Hardly enough material this far to make me satisfied, these two lines from the Returning the Favor cutscene are still a delight. I will be hoping for more in the upcoming chapter 11... if I can get through it.
