It's already available in China

Last one is kinda wholesome tho...

Basic Attack: Stringblade (Basic)

Performs up to 4 consecutive attacks using an electric guitar and Feathered Sound Blade, dealing Lakshana DMG. Generates String Energy whenever Akane Rin deals DMG to a target, up to a cap of 30.

Basic Attack: Stage Dive

Press Basic Attack while airborne to plunge, dealing 1 instance of Lakshana DMG in an area upon impact. DMG increases with plunge height, up to a 100% increase.

Critical Riposte: Featherblade Reverb

Triggers when pressing Basic Attack after a Critical Dodge. Blasts the target with Feathered Sound Blade, dealing Lakshana DMG. Casting Basic Attack: Stringblade within a certain time after Critical Riposte: Featherblade Reverb does not reset its attack sequence.

Redirect Skill: Rhythm Wave (Skill)

Offers two casting methods for Akane Rin's Rhythm Wave.

Press: Inflicts Overtone on the target for 25s and deals Lakshana DMG. Causes Overtone to resonate when Akane Rin performs a Basic Attack, relaying that Basic Attack over long range to the affected target and proportionally increasing the DMG Ratio of the relayed Basic Attack: Stringblade or Critical Riposte: Featherblade Reverb.

Hold: Deploys a Reverb Field for 25s and deals Lakshana DMG to enemies within range. Causes Reverb Field to resonate when Akane Rin performs a Basic Attack, relaying that Basic Attack through the field to deal 1 instance of Basic Attack DMG to all enemies within range and granting an additional DMG increase to the relayed Basic Attack: Stringblade or Critical Riposte: Featherblade Reverb.

Allows only one Overtone or Reverb Field to exist at a time. Replaces the existing form when a new form is successfully established. Shares the same cooldown between both casting methods and allows either form to be selected again once the cooldown ends.

Enables the Enhanced Redirect Skill: Synced Resonance by pressing Redirect Skill when String Energy reaches 30 and an active Overtone or Reverb Field is present. Triggers an enhanced effect based on the current form:

Overtone: deals 1 instance of massive single-target Lakshana DMG to the affected target.

Reverb Field: deals 1 instance of massive Lakshana DMG to all enemies within range.

Consumes 30 String Energy when Synced Resonance hits and consumes none if it misses. Preserves the existing Overtone or Reverb Field without refreshing its remaining duration. Akane Rin is invincible and immune to stagger while casting Synced Resonance.

Synced Resonance has no independent cooldown and does not affect the cooldown of Redirect Skill: Rhythm Wave.

Prevents Synced Resonance from being cast when neither Overtone nor Reverb Field is active, requiring Redirect Skill: Rhythm Wave to be pressed or held to establish a form first.

**Ult** [Runtime timing has not been verified]

Casts the first stage of Sonic Boom, dealing multiple instances of massive Lakshana DMG to enemies within the target area and entering Solo Cadenza for 20s, during which her interruption resistance is increased.

Allows the second stage to be cast at any time after 4s in Solo Cadenza by pressing the Ultimate again and ending Solo Cadenza early, dealing 1 instance of massive Lakshana DMG to enemies within the target area. Requires the second stage to be cast manually. Does not automatically cast the second stage when Solo Cadenza ends. If the second stage has not been cast when Solo Cadenza ends, it becomes unavailable.

Solo Cadenza functions independently of Overtone and Reverb Field and does not remove or replace either effect.

Akane Rin gains 3 Ultimate Energy per second while out of combat.

Altered Chord (Support)

Strikes the strings with a powerful strum, dealing 1 instance of Lakshana DMG.

Awakes

A1: After-School Tabs

Each time the Enhanced Redirect Skill: Synced Resonance is cast, immediately restores HP equal to 1000% of Akane Rin's Base ATK and increases her DEF by 50% and interruption resistance by 60% for 15s.

A2: Window Capo

Reduces the Lakshana RES of enemies affected by Overtone or within Reverb Field by 12%.

A3: Shade Capsules

Adds a fixed 1000% to Rhythm Wave's DMG Ratio when pressed to inflict Overtone. Increases Reverb Field's radius by 30%. Pulls in enemies within range when Rhythm Wave is held to deploy Reverb Field.

A4: Headphone Static

Increases Akane Rin's Crit DMG by 30% for 15s after casting the Enhanced Redirect Skill: Synced Resonance.

A5: Rehearsal Click

Increases the DMG Ratio bonus for Basic Attacks relayed by Overtone to 64%. Increases the DMG bonus for Basic Attacks relayed by Reverb Field to 90%.

A6: Front-Row Supernova

Starlit Anthem additionally allows Akane Rin to ignore 16% of the target's DEF.

R3 Effect: Diatonic

Increases the skill level of Akane Rin's Basic Attack, Redirect Skill, and Ultimate by 1. Fully restores String Energy upon entering battle. Adds a fixed 800% to the DMG Ratio of the Enhanced Redirect Skill: Synced Resonance. Adds a fixed 1000% to the DMG Ratio of Sonic Boom's second stage.

R6 Effect: Counterpoint

Refunds 10 String Energy after casting the Enhanced Redirect Skill: Synced Resonance. Increases Akane Rin's Crit DMG by 64% for 25s after casting the Enhanced Redirect Skill: Synced Resonance.

Special Notes:

String Energy

Akane Rin's exclusive energy. Ranges from 0 to 30. Generated whenever she deals DMG to a target. The Enhanced Redirect Skill: Synced Resonance consumes 30 energy when it hits a target.

Overtone

Attaches to a single enemy. Relays Basic Attack DMG to the marked target over long range.

Reverb Field

A field deployed on the battlefield that relays Basic Attack DMG to enemies within range.

Solo Cadenza

Casts the first stage of Sonic Boom and enters Solo Cadenza for 20s. While Solo Cadenza is active, increases interruption resistance by 75%. Allows the second stage to be cast at any time after 4s in Solo Cadenza by pressing Sonic Boom again, ending Solo Cadenza early. Requires the second stage to be cast manually. Does not cast the second stage automatically when Solo Cadenza ends. If the second stage has not been cast when Solo Cadenza ends, it becomes unavailable.

Solo Cadenza functions independently of Overtone and Reverb Field and does not remove or replace either effect.

So you are gonna put Aurelia with Akane right? RIGHT!!?

the game has been out for half a year now, and there are a lot of amazing soundtracks that's not released to streaming platforms, my personal favourite is this one played at caltrop lake

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=biQRxfSUtbI

it reminds me a lot of yupeng chen, whos the sole reason why im doing a music degree rn.

but to my knowledge there still isn't an official release for open world / cutscene soundtracks, the only ones i found are the radio songs and trailers. does anyone know if we'll get an official release?

Not gonna lie, a nostalgic game came around and completely diverted my attention recently. Was able to nab enough fish in between gameplay to get enough for the Weekly Stamina!

Thanks Stamina Recharge!

On a side note, I haven't been able to do much of the other content this patch as a result. Perhaps during this weekend I'll bust through some. How's the patch looking for everyone else? I'm super hype for Aurelia's story coming out soon!!!

The girls did ask me to take pictures of them but after that nothing happened.

It's been a hard day's class

And I've been rockin' like a hog.

It's been a hard day's class.

I should be jumping like a frog.

But when I get home to you

And do the things that you do,

I need to touch some grass.

You know I Heist all day

To get the money and all the things.

And is worth it just to hear you say

Akane Rin means everything.

I'm hanging out with The Whoots!!!!

And getting all of the loot

While playing N-T-E.

When I'm home,

Hotori's drunk on the bed.

When I'm home,

Gonna do fishing instead,

Instead, yay!

It's been a hard day's class

(nyaow!)

I'm hanging out with The Whoots!!!!

And getting more of the loot

While playing N-T-E.

When I'm home,

Hotori's drunk on the bed.

When I'm home,

Zankou will find me instead,

Instead, nooo!!

Hotta seems to be releasing skins for characters at a really good pace, so given the current roster, what outfit do you most want to see added to the game in the future? Personally I'd throw my wallet at the screen for a Merula skin for Blackbird

they forgot about the dog lol genuinely no way skia was intended to synergize with akane this way

these calculations are based off of data from official public CN servers: akane automatically applies remora to enemies every 3s. if any party member applies remora to an enemy already afflicted with it, akane deals 150% damage plus another 30% for every second remaining on the current remora effect, capped at 8 seconds/240% for a total of 390% if hathor is present. this effect can apply once every 1s per-enemy.

• akane remora dmg solo: 1050%/15s (210 * 5)
• akane remora dmg with hathor: 1950%/15s (390 * 5)
• akane remora dmg with skia: 3450%/15s (270 * 12 + 210. this is due to skia's skill having 3s of downtime. akane procs a solo remora during this window)
• for comparison: chaos deals 3200% with every remora application w/ hathor present

there's a chest on the left! how can I get there???

She proceeds to choose the exact seat that Lacrimosa is already sittting in.

If they didn't mostly fade out, it might look sort of cute.

Incidentally, this broke the interact prompt, so as they are now I can't actually make either of them move.

Realistically, playing 20 wawes took less than 20 minutes, but it was so phycially drainining and soul wretchingly boring, that felt like hours. Worst, it wasnt brain off like most other events where you can play half sleeping. And no way to afk.

So I'm curious, how many people actually liked it and played to their limit (or hard limit - 40 waves). Why it clicked with you? And is there insane people who actually played even after clearing all rewards from shop.

Ikumi has been singing a lot of band songs recently as her activity. That's why she did the singing like a pro.
