So it turns out our other main character wakes up in front of the other Roda tree.
We're introduced to Hugo, the magical prodigy and heir to House Fact, and he has the skills to back up his claims especially as he plays very much like a shooting game character.
After our introductions and tutorial battles, we get our usual exposition prior to entering the tower for the first time.

![Castle of Shikigami III [27] - Fumiko + Kohtaro
Yukaris not talking about the software in that thumbnail, by the way.
In terms of gameplay, Kohtaro and Fumiko pair up quite well as they can cover for each others weaknesses quite well.
In terms of the story, get ready for hilarity as our poor protagonist once again learns the meaning of pain courtesy of being the games butt monkey in nearly every scenario that isnt his own.

![Lufia & the Fortress of Doom Restored [38.5] (Bonus 2) - Pinpointing the Eggxact Location
Even though were one member short of a full party, we can complete the Dragon Eqq side quest and gain all three wishes even if it means wishing for the same item multiple times.
Seriously, the Might Shield is really the only one thats fully worth it every time, but getting that Might Bow earlier didnt present any problems either.
And, again, dont make the same mistake I did: Remember to re-equip M.D.s weapon after losing Dual Blade!

![Wind Waker Randomizer [15] - Circlet Soleil
Time for my first seed of a new Randomizer from a game that I thought I knew more than I did. So yeah, theres a lot of salt.
But thats more entertainment for you guys.
Be warned, though, this ones long.
It also starts off with those who joined in co-comms also rolling and running their own seeds, but recording ran so long that they moved on to other projects, so theres some unusual overlap. But I dont mind as this would have had a lot of empty commentary otherwise.

![Lufia & the Fortress of Doom Restored [32] - Newtonian Cuisine
6 pieces of Alumina down, 1 to go.
The final piece is in the possession of the King of Herat, but he wont part with it unless we can curb his appetite. And the solution to that is meeting up with the Wizard of Taste back in Lyden who tells us about the Purple Newt found in the aptly-named Purple Newt Cave.
Funnily enough, finding the actual Purple Newt felt easier than finding the cave.
Lets upgrade Falcon!

![Castle of Shikigami III [38] - Munchausen + Mihee
Easily one of the most depressing routes in the game, at least up until the final boss, given that we gain some unusual insights into our enemies and find there isnt a whole lot of satisfaction under the current conditions. Munchausen and Mihee do have some good chemistry and pair well as characters, though its basically all Mihee in terms of the gameplay with this pairing.

![Lufia & the Fortress of Doom Restored [26] - Placing Forfeits a Bad Race
Our miniature world tour continues as we explore towns and villages that will come in handy to visit later either due to future plot points or just needing a place to warp to.
But the big winner for this episode is stumbling onto the Isle of Forfeit where we can re-obtain anything that we may have sold in the past, including items that let us create something that can kill all of our enemies for us. Hey, dont look at me, Saruman was the one offering it.
Oh, and bunnygirls! Rather forward bunnygirls, but they were still censored in the original release.

![Atelier Iris 2 [3] - Noin Is Half the Battle
Maybe Felt should have reconsidered going on a journey with more than a talking sword and a couple of Heal Herbs as traversing a desert while unprepared is basically a death sentence. But we at least are able to finish our first dungeon, meet a new party member, get a glimpse of some of the supporting cast, and decide to act like a JRPG hero by helping people in need.
To the Desert Ruins!

![Rifftrax: The Game With Friends 4/3/26 Session [1] - Degrees vs. RADians
Yep. Need some buffer videos to fill some time between Lufia 1 and Atelier Iris 2 so I can procrastinate on- er, better prepare myself before starting recording it a bit more.
Enjoy the usual shenanigans!
