Hirondelle

Just to clarify, I wasn't making a profit on that event; people sent me money, and I bought merchandise for them haha. Anyways, I totally would have tried to attend this concert and buy merchandise...but I'm on vacation this month in the States, and won't be in Japan when this goes down. Bummer! I'll have your backs next time guys!

I'm in the same boat, and tried the same things you did (except with Felicia instead of Joker). I really hope she shows up somewhere down the line...I want her to be my wife! D:

For those of us who have the game, anyway. Just for reference, I'm playing the Nohr path on Hard, Casual mode. (I'm still resetting when people die, since I want them to level-up as much as possible. But I'm sure as hell not going to reset when I'm moments away from winning and I get hit by a 1% critical.) Anyways, I'm on Chapter 8...the snow one. And for someone who's played the whole FE series, I'm admittedly having a fair amount of trouble. For starters, I can't really read Japanese, so in the thick of combat I think I miss out on some small yet important details, most notably skill effects and Hidden Weapon stat penalties. It's safe to say these things are really changing the gameplay of the series... Furthermore, this chapter is kind of ridiculous in itself. After you finish preparations, a pop-up comes up and tells you to (I think) prioritize getting to all the villages on the map. If you reach one of the 5, nothing happens; if the enemy does, a bunch of enemy units pop out. I think the Ice Clan is basically Paul Revere'ing their people into fighting, and you the player are working to counteract that. But still, they have multiple magic units that, when coupled with enemy attack stance, decimate a solid half of my units. Not to mention Flora, who's using her Freeze staff to stop my units in their tracks (mostly Kamui, who I'm trying to make Dragon-Vein the center frozen lake...which reverts to being Frozen after one turn. So what the hell is the point?) All in all, this map design is waaaaaay better than FE13's, and I'm super happy. This means, however, that I'm actually going to have to try harder than just "pair-up and charge at the enemy"...thanks a lot, Awakening! So yeah, does anyone have advice for this chapter?

I noticed the same thing. Check this out: See, at first everyone thought Kazahana was one of those "Brock-Archtype" characters who always had their eyes closed or whatever. But, in the trailer after this one, she was seen with her eyes open. Furthermore, this generic thief's expression seems like he's seen better days. So, I can only assume this is her "happy" portrait. So, I think this is sufficient evidence to say that the character portraits definitely change in regards to weapon type advantages, and probably to low health situations regardless of weapons equipped (maybe low health will include a sweat drop, or something).

It's probably because I asked you for you address multiple times with no answer, and the fact you've seem to have registered under a different profile doesn't help either. So, do you finally want to PM me your address on one of your multiple accounts?

Oh, I'm pretty happy about that - your address was ridiculous haha...or at least something I wasn't used to.

This is great news guys, I'm glad this all pretty much went off without a hitch! Uh what?

Camilla! Hnnnng But seriously, she has good assets AND isn't a huge bitch (Judging by her demeanor in the trailer)? I'm sold.

When I played FE7 for the first time (in 6th grade, mind you), I didn't realize there were "HIT/DMG/CRIT" displays on the battle screen. Like, I literally judged my character's strengths off of "what they looked like"...embarrassing, I know.

Small (hopefully final) update: I managed to ship everything today! There were some slight setbacks, as I had to fill out customs forms for every package and even had to make an appointment for this morning to ship this many packages. But it's worth it!

Yeah man. Mix-ups happen. Realize it wasn't intentional! If it makes you feel better, I didn't get a single piece of merchandise for myself.

Oh my bad, I forgot to mention what you actually were missing. I have an Olivia badge! So just pick one!

OK, just as an FYI, the soonest I can pack, wrap and ship all your stuff will be Tuesday afternoon! Japan time! Just so y'all are aware! Now, it's Badge Auction Time! ZekeroXBlade! (No Owain) Isylia! (No Lucina) charmedx3! (No Tharja/Henry) ...And Jyosua if he wants to! I wasn't able to get some of y'all's badges, as the selection was random. So, here are the 5 I received instead: So, whoever chooses first, gets it shipped in their package. charmedx3 gets to pick twice, since they didn't get two of their badges! And...go! RESULTS: Isylia: Nowi charmedx3: Robin/Lon'qu Zekero: Nowi Jyosua: Chrom

I uploaded an album of my time there on imgur here: http://imgur.com/a/aklS0#UMKpZQe It was pretty cool! But super packed. I cannot stress how popular this booth was, lol. The ones adjacent and across from it were literally ghost towns.

Quick update! I was able to purchase EVERYTHING, except the Photo Frame (sold out)! Additionally, all the Awakening Badges were in opaque wrappings and chosen at random. Fortunately, I was actually able to get most of the ones y'all wanted. Once I get home and sort everything properly, I'll proceed with showing the badges ya'll didn't request, and we'll do a first-post-first-serve method to determine who gets what. I also took several photos, so I'll make another topic showcasing the event proper. Stay tuned!
