Event part deux (June 16-23rd)

DOME LOG: OUTER DOME HARDER
After gathering the plumes of dusk (a log which you can still join here, btw!) characters can now venture into the outside city! To reflect this, the outer dome log has been expanded with both old and new Visitor prompts!

The map now has teleporter areas where the characters show up!

Go forth and join and help each other out!

THE PLANNING
If you want to prepare something regarding this log, remember that we have a CR planning meme already in progress [right here!] but you can also POST BELOW and organize groups. Plan searching parties or just decide what you'll be doing. KEEP IN MIND THAT IN THE FIRS DAYS, CHARACTERS ARE NOT AWARE OF NEWCOMERS OUTSIDE OF THE BARRIER so that may be fun to play out!

QUESTIONS FROM MODS TO YOU
New players and old! We'd like your feedback on how the event is going so far:
▶ How is the speed (too slow? too fast? )
▶ Do you have sufficient information to work with?
Will you give me a million dollars Are you having fun? (This is important to us!)
▶ What more would you like to see in this event and other events? Let us know!

JULY IS COMING!
July is coming soon! Stay tuned for more event information regarding it. It's going to be a big month, but we'll still alow one additional player-plot event if you feel like running one.

THE ENCYCLOPEDIA!
The Encyclopedia is moving forward! So far there are about 40% of the persona listed, but we're slowly working at it. With this, you're easily able to see personas based on levels or a certain arcana. It also gives us a good idea of the Room Persona stats in general!

GAME BONUSES
Did you have more than 30 comments in the month of May? Remember that we now allow leveling up much more easily! Reply to the section below if you have any of the following:

Lvl 1 ▶ Lvl 2: Posting over 30 comments in at least two different posts in 1 month.
Lvl 2 ▶ Lvl 3: Posting over 30 comments in at least three different posts in 1 month, and starting at least one post or log.
Lvl 3 ▶ Lvl Max: Posting over 30 comments per month in at least three different posts during 2 consecutive months and starting at least 1 post or log.

For those who are new, level up means you can equip more powerful personas. Apart from this, your character is not affected in any way, and will gain these levels the longer they stay naturally if you'd rather take this slowly.

THE REST
Thank you for being with us! We hope you're enjoying this event, and those to come! If you have any suggestions or comments, feel free to share them below or PM us directly!


Bonus David Bowie for absolutely no reason.

The new Map:
Due to the outside areas now being available, the map of Hinoto-Ri has changed! IC, the characters will not know about the area names for nowm [HERE IS THE MAP IN FULL] it is too big to simply post here, so please follow the link.

Eye Opener Event Start!
Good morning, Destiny Strings!

As per our June Calendar, the 8th marks the major start of our monthly event, and our first open event log is up for players to participate! Please note that this one deals with the initial panic in the city, the damage done to apartments and realizing that the 13th hour is 2 hours long instead of just one. More logs will follow very soon!

For new players who wish to be part of the outside introduction, that log will be posted either late tonight or tomorrow night (we're still finalizing the outside information, so we ask for your patience! 9th was our planned date, but we're trying to get it out on the 8th so you'll have something to tag as well.)

The next few days will have a few more additional open logs:

▶ Outside the Barrier Log for New Players (9th, but hopefully the 8th)
▶ General Week Rebuilding & Mictlan Log for players inside the city (9th)

These two logs will run for the next week, as players collect items needed to make the teleporter function, and new players survive in the outside, barrier-less world. As always, we encourage players to plan together, and to go beyond what is offered. You can have characters try to rebuild part of the city, or aid civilians, decide that your apartment didn't suffer too much damage and offer it to others to come stay, go help out at town hall, or simply try to fix the network.

The choices are all open to you, and we highly encourage you to form new bonds with characters, as Dual Personas will be important later on.

Thank you for joining us, and we hope you have fun! If you have questions, you can ask them below!

The Dream Recollection:
During the week of the 1st to the 7th, certain players experienced dreams that offered some clues about the upcoming events. You can find them in the links below:

DAY 1
Kotoha
Shinjiro

DAY 2
Ayumu

DAY 3
Even

DAY 4
Misfit

DAY 5
Ruri

DAY 6
Saionji
Agatha

DAY 7
Takakage
Hizumi's Dream is different than the rest, however...

What could they mean? It is a mystery...

Welcome to the June Plotline! After taking into consideration the talk during the player discussion along with an effort to bring more action and danger right back into the game, we're pleased to announce this month's plot in full. For those who wish to do things a little more quietly, don't worry, there are also opportunities to stay back as well.

Full plot information for the entire month behind this cut! )

With Wighty stepping down from modhood(dom) we needed a few good men to replace him and several of you have answered that call! It is with great pleasure that both  Meowzy (Bro and Bobby) and Eon (Takakage and Flynn)  will be helping us with the plot, NPCing characters and general game running. We've already told them some of the plot and they were very excited, and we look forward to working with them! With this there should be at least one mod in various timezones, making it easier to contact one of us.

Additionally, Brandon continues to be the sexiest mod helper around, Walker will be our official demon NPC helper, and Kimi will be aiding with a few NPCs as well.

There's still time to join as a helper by following this link!

Congratulations everyone! With this, we're already ironing out next month's event to be filled with action, lock-downs and demons and that should all be showing up tomorrow as an informational post.

Since the time allotted for Turnabout A La Mode is ended you've all failed everyone is dead, we'll be resuming really quickly what is going to happen here without spoiling everything, and allowing everyone to continue tagging until the event is completely finished!

Characters will have an extra day in the world, and return home without incident. We'll continue to tag until the logs are finished, but come back and assume that this is what happened!

Meanwhile, we encourage you to do start your own new posts about your victorious return and/or helping out Sarah who has issues of her own, right here!

There will be a few new posts coming in a few days! Remember that mod and npc help forms are still open until tonight for moderates and until the end of the week for helpers!

[personal profile] stringmods
The votes are in! The rescue log will be to save Minerva McGonagall in Ace Attorney. Practice your lawyer...ing and objections as while the exact details are still being worked out, it will be an original plot and murder mystery that the players will have to solve in both the courtroom and investigating.

As a reminder, don't forget the activity check that is ending in 3 days from now!

More details will be given once the AC is done. If you have suggestions or ideas, please list them below, and thank you for playing Destiny Strings once again!

Hello once again Destiny Strings!

Astrology Aries Aftermath
With the boss log coming near to a close soon, and the sub-boss log still open for all your terrible happenings, the city will calm down after a few days to (once again) start rebuilding what was broken.

However, with such a surprise attack out of nowhere without warning, in the upcoming months, the city will also think of a more proper way to be able to deal with the Astrology monsters. Citizens and Visitors will be invited to help out to think of a more proper defense system that doesn't end up leveling the city.

Cherry Blossom Festival
With the city busying itself, the park continues to be a source of relaxation for the citizens of Hinoto-Ri. And with the blossoms in full bloom, it's no secret that taking a break (or two) here will help replenish anyone's spirits.

This is an open log that will be posted tonight. Moreover, much like last year, there will be some fortunes!

May Calendar
It's a much more quiet month than last one's but we'll posting an open log for golden week, and then it's off to the rescue mission from the 16th-22nd. There's only a few more days to vote on it, so look at it right here!

ATP
It's that time again! ATP is coming in tomorrow and we always try to post an ad for the game. If there are castmates you are looking for, please fill out this form on this post for all the details! Thank you!

[personal profile] stringmods
Hello again, Destiny Strings!

Do you like clowns? Klowns with a K? SURPRISE! Then do we have the sub boss monsters for you!

Unlike the previous events where characters were slowly affected, this monster seems to have sprouted in a day before anyone could react, and thus, the log itself was as well. So while you don't get any physical or mental effects, you have one strange task on your hands...monsters have set up shop!

While the Main Attraction is happening in the poor, abused Coliseum, massive tents have appeared on the 13th hour around the following districts: Scorpio, Taurus, Cancer & Aquarius (you can see on the map here to see where they are situated).

This is an important note: Characters have to be willingly pursuing and seeking the monsters in question. To opt out for the event, simply have your character stay at home. Moreover, the event only happens during the 13th hour.

You can tag whatever district in the log that your heart desires, destroy and fight as many of those monsters and help the city to your heart's content. Another player is in charge of this log and will be tagging as need be, but you are encouraged to use the monsters listed here and reply to the log yourselves and each other. Tension! Heartbreaks! Klowns! Cream pies!

Thank you, and please, enjoy the circus! It will be fun*!



*Evil circus may not be as fun as mentioned. Please fight responsibly.

Due to unforeseen circumstances involving the moderators, and with the permission of the players involved, the big battle will be postponed until Sunday. However, the rest of the fight that does not involve the boss will still be on schedule as permitted, as it is organized by one of the players.

We apologize for the issues, and if circumstances are willing (aka Pixle gets her internet back by tomorrow night), we may be able to do everything on time. However, we wished to give everyone fair warning in the worst of circumstances. Tags in the Velvet and Aramid rooms will resume as soon as possible.

Thank you all, and continue to rock on Destiny Strings! ♥


Internet was reestablished in our home, the log is up!

Hello Destiny Strings! We just have a few little announcements that we figured could all be posted together.

▼ EDIT: GRAND PRIX RESULTS
 
If you are participating in the Persona Grand Prix that happened in March, we would like you to leave us a message here with who won and who lost. This way we can distribute prizes to you! If you are still unsure of who will be winning, simply reply here too and your presents will just arrive later.

Thank you!

BOSS BATTLE RANDOMIZER RESULTS ▼
 

As per the results, the first three characters will be participating in the main Boss Battle, with the other two acting as back up if someone has to drop out due to unforeseen circumstances and/or the character gets injured enough (this will be up to the three players if they wish to do this, we'll set up a planning log for everyone this weekend).

If no characters end up backing up, the two remaining characters will help with the final attack but this will not count towards signing up for the next boss battle.

VOTE ON THE RESCUE LOG AND LOCATION ▼
 
After taking your suggestions into consideration and knowing our own abilities to set up certain worlds, the following are those that we would gladly have the rescue mission partake in. Vote for the one that interests you the most and please only vote once OOC, as the characters will not know IC of the rescue location.

These posts show up at the end of a month or early the next month to give you a status report of what has been done and how your efforts have aided the city!

General City Status▼
 
Demons continue to live in the the outer parts of the city. While they tolerate the Visitors (specifically a few of them) the area is mostly hands off for the civilians.

The Network and Electrical Power are running and full efficiency.

Transportation is still slow, and you cannot drive a bus over most bridges. The subway system is now running at 75%, and as always, the teleporters in both apartments are working.

▼ Welcome to another Strings update!
 
It may still be April 1st (for the next 5 minutes), but this update is no joke! Due to the information involved, the post will be broken into two parts, with tomorrow focusing on the city itself and open logs, this one with future events and signups.

If you haven't checked out the CALENDAR please do so now so that the following will make more sense for you!

First of all, once the closed Mictlan log is over, the dungeon will be open to all for exploring! This time with monster lists and maps, so you will be able to go down there, visualize what it is like and explore in your own logs to your heart's content. There will be a document given out, but for now since the log is still fresh, we're waiting before sharing it with everyone (not to mention it will be changed, depending on what the characters will do).

This being said, we once again encourage you to suggest to us player plots, be it in your character's own universe or something they'd like to do in the city. You can find the form RIGHT HERE!


▼ Persona Generators are updated
 
Finally after many hours of tears, issues with hosting, sweat and recoding the entire thing from the ground up to make it easier in the long run, the personas generators are all 100% online!
LVL 1 | LVL 2 | LVL 3 | LVL Max
MAJOR DIFFERENCES:
- An easier to understand menu with color coding. Anything in a darker green is a new spell for that group that wasn't there before, anything in yellow means the previous restriction was lifted (so a spell that required a healing skill but now doesn't would be yellow).

- Combat users have much more attacking spells, but healing skills climb slower than passive users. Additionally, their skills are upgraded based on 4 tiers of levels (spells 1-2, 3-4,5-6,7-8) instead of just two like before (it also fits better the strange level issues we had before like a small healing spell that shows up the same time for one person or all users). Many, many new spells that deal additional damage, and status affects.

- Passive/Support users now have even more unique skills to choose from, giving them a much bigger grasp on being support, especially when it comes to the higher levels. They have more powerful healing spells compared to combat users and finally, we've added the lowest nuclear skill for them to use (before they didn't have any, we're sorry!)

- The Almighty spells that were not direct attacks have been giving more power for both groups. Foul Breath increases all status attacks by 30% for yourself, for example, so it can really make certain battles interesting.

If you notice any mistakes in wording, or skills, just tell us so we can fix it as soon as possible! As a note, the basic lists now need to be updated to fit with these new skills, so for now consider these generators the ones with the right information.

▼ MONTHLY EVENT INFORMATION
 
APRIL 1ST: DOLPHIN TAKEOVER
There's a post about this RIGHT HERE! Dolphins have been trolling the city for this day and claimed April 1st as Dolphin Day! You can make your own computer posts of them wrecking havoc; what they do to your character is entirely up to you.

APRIL 15TH: ARAMID ROOM VISIT
This time there will be a log for the other room found in this game. Again, you will be allowed to thread out requests if you like. This pair is a little different than the Velvet Residents, mind you. After all, this is Nyarlathotep's territory.

APRIL 18TH-20TH: ARIES BATTLE
One thing to note is that the battle against the Aries monster will be brutal. There will be a lot of collateral damage, although limited to the area the creature itself is in.

Signups will close on APRIL 7th for log preparations. There will be backup characters if there are enough signups in case someone has an unforeseen issue.

APRIL 23RD
This will be a post regarding next month's rescue event.

▼ THE ARIES BATTLE
 
More information will be given to prepare, but what you need to know for now is that this battle may leave a few people in the hospital.

There is a risk of serious physical and mental damage while fighting this boss.

The signups will be limited to 3 (perhaps 4 depending on total submissions) characters. Players will be required to have either AIM or SKYPE and have free time during the 18th-20th for AIM/Skype sessions, exact times to be determined, as we will be doing this semi-rapid fire style.

As always, whoever gets picked will be done via Random Number Generator.

SIGN UP HERE!

▼ Rescue plot voting and information
 
May is when we will get our next rescue, on the 16th-19th IC-wise.

However as the rescue is influenced by YOU, who gets rescued and where they are found will be completely picked by you! The voting will end on the 30th of April so that's an entire month to vote on things! Each one come with benefits:

MINERVA MCGONAGALL (Harry Potter)
BENEFITS:
Visitors: Minerva may be able to teach magic to those who are talented. Once she is rescued and recognizes she needs to help the Visitors more directly, she may open up a school. She also has a spell repertoire that is useful against demons.
City: Additional magic spells to keep demons at bay, magical tutelage.
RESCUE RISKS: High (Hard Rescue)

REIKO AKANEZAWA & IDEO HAZAMA (Shin Megami Tensei: if...)
BENEFITS:
Visitors: Reiko and Ideo will send demons to fight alongside Visitors during major boss fights. Additionally, Reiko and Ideo will create an assorted collection of Demon Apps over time to aid the Visitors in their day to day operations.
City: Training in Demon Summoning and Demon Contracting.
RESCUE RISKS: Medium (Two Medium Rescues) [Must Rescue Both Simultaneously!]

BYRON ORPHEUS (The Venture Bros.)
BENEFITS:
Visitors: Dr. Orpheus will train the Visitors to ignore high-frequency shrieks above a certain amplitude as they grow accustomed to his normal manner of speech. He may teach some Dark Magic so long as Minerva isn't paying attention.
City: Stronger demons are kept at bay outside the 13th Hour. Without his necromantic powers, the outskirts of the city are exceedingly dangerous.
RESCUE RISKS: High (Hard Rescue)

CIEL (Mega Man Zero)
BENEFITS:
Visitors: Ciel maintains some aspects of the Visitor-used public network and the City's public transportation. Her research into energy fields may also prove important for understanding the barrier surrounding Hinoto-Ri...
City: Public transportation will be restored and run smoothly without incident.
RESCUE RISKS: Minimal (Easy Rescue)

BRAINSTORM (Transformers)
BENEFITS:
Visitors: Brainstorm maintains some aspects of the Visitor-used public network and develops extreme inventions and weaponry for high-risk missions. For those who require mechanical upkeep, he is also an expert in robotics and machinery.
City: Weaponry to better fight back against the demon threat.
RESCUE RISKS: High (Hard Rescue)

TAKEHARU KIRIJO (Persona 3)
BENEFITS:
Visitors: Takeharu heads the Development Department Branch in M.A.G.I. headquarters. This allows the branch to resume business properly. While the Research Branch brainstorms the technology, the Development Branch is what makes them useful for the city. If there is only a Research Branch, nothing will be properly built.
City: Technology that keeps the city maintained and running with minimal effort on citizens. This allows them more time to take care of more pressing matters such as demons or having enough food for everyone.
RESCUE RISKS: Medium (Medium Rescue)

EIICHIRO TAKEBA (Persona 3)
BENEFITS:
Visitors: Eiichiro heads the Research Branch at the M.A.G.I. headquarters. This allows the branch to resume business properly and begin looking into technology to make living in the city easier: items such as transporters, money cards and the COMPS were at first thought of and tested here.
City: New technology periodically that could improve city life.
RESCUE RISKS: High (Hard Rescue)

The THIS LINK to take you to the post where you can suggest places you think the characters could go for the rescue. Keep in mind that we may not know all the fandoms, and we'll use it to help us with ideas about the rescue itself. Who knows, your idea might get picked out. Suggest as many places as you want, and suggest where as well (so let's say you want Star Wars during Old Republic but having it be an aerial battle.)

▼ Fighting Tournament Results!
 
We have the randomized results:

MiRa vs. Jonathan
Misfit vs. Even
Allelujah vs. Miki
Kotoha vs. Otoha
Shura vs. Tsukasa

The fighting tournament log will be up on the 22nd! Meanwhile all parties can use this post below to plan (or if you wish to do this as you go, that's up to you too!).

NOTE: We'd like some information that people around the city would know about your character! This is to help us finalize the personalized fighting log openers. This should what the normal public knows and thinks, such as "he dresses like a samurai" or "is a robot" or "I've seen her fight demons with her bare hands!". Anything from where they work to what you think would be interesting for the announcers to talk about. Sorry Jonathan, the fairies already spoke for you.

As a note, prizes are awarded to both winners and losers, so no worries if you character loses the fight.

You will get a special bonus for finishing your log completely (barring unforeseen hiatuses and player issues.)

▼ Welcome to another Strings update!
 
Hello! We bring forth news and updates to you, along with tournament signups for the event coming in a week!


GREAT NEWS EVERYONE, it is with great pleasure that we announce that a David Bowie-centric event is coming to Strings--okay no, I just haven't used this gif in a year.

Open Logs ▼
 

The calendar ▼
 
If you haven't checked it out already (we're already halfway in the month but it never hurts!) the calendar is right here! You'll notice that today is White Day If you have someone you like, it's time to give back three times more! If not it's time to cry in a corner eating ice cream give some gifts to friends.

Tomorrow we have a Velvet Room Log, so look forward to that! It will be posted up at the stroke of midnight, eastern time, tonight (well technically tomorrow but you know what we mean)!

Then there's going to be a small festival on the 21st for springtime, that leads right into the Grand Prix. More information on that below.

City News ▼
 
The demonic population continues to live in the outer parts of the city, which are now even more dangerous than ever.

The Network and Electrical Power are both back to full power. Congratulations!

Transportation is still slow, and you cannot drive a bus over most bridges. The subway system is now running at 50%, and as always the teleporters in both apartments are working.

City Status Update ▼
 
> Population: 1.1 million people.
> About 200 people died last month, due to natural causes or demon attacks.
> Size 280 km² (20km² is still lost during November's demon attack)

Monthly rates:
> Average birth rate:
12 per 1000 people. (steady pace, that's good!)
> Average death rate: 10 per 1000 people.

Currently the population sees the Visitors as:
Helpful. Most are glad to have you around.
Shipping? Due to the doujin the fairies have written, you may find presents left to you by your 'fans.'

Currently the demonic population sees the Visitors as:
Acceptable. Most of the neutral aligned demons see you as strong, but continue to question your need to protect the weak.

Tags ▼
 
▶ This is your friendly reminder to ALWAYS TAG YOUR POSTS! Whether it is in the Network or the Logs. Try not to forget to do so, plus it helps when you need to do your activity check.

Fighting Tournament ▼
 


The Grand Prix has been an event that is marked with a bloody history. Last year, it marked the first large-scale Anoli attack. This year, it will be much calmer, tame and simplified. An event to give hope, much to the relief of everyone. With the stadium rebuilt, the Visitors have been asked to 'renew the flames of passion' by the city's mayor (look, he likes purple prose a lot).

▶ There will be no attack during this event. It's going to go perfectly fine. Mostly. But there's no surprise attack on the Visitors so don't worry about going there and ending up in the hospital. All we need is your Springtime of Youth!

▶ Signups are from the 14th to the 19th with results posted on the 20th. Sign up as many of your characters as you like!

▶ Characters can join even if they have not awakened their Personas yet. In fact the tournament might actually really love that because ~~GREAT TV~~~

▶ The fighting tournament uses Evokers (because, again, great TV) IC wise. For characters not already familiar with the technology of the guns that cause Personas to pop out of your head faster, feel free to assume that they have been told how to use an Evoker for the tournament before going out in the Ring. Evokers are hard to produce, so they will only get to handle one when doing their battle.

▶ During any battle, you can post with your fellow combatant(s) to figure out who wins ahead of time, just roleplay it out as you go along, OR ask me to roll a dice for you for the winner and then go at your own pace. The choice is up to both of you!

Valentine's Event End ▼
 
At the end of the 13th hour on 16th, the Pixies will finally release the couples. They'll leave behind plenty of copies of the books, fanart, photos, and general fanwork that they made...free of charge!

Unfortunately (?!) not all of them will show up in the room... your friends may find one in a shop with Visitor-themed merchandise. Upon exiting their respected rooms, Visitors will find that they're in a love hotel in the Taurus district run by a succubus, who will just smile and giggle at them as they leave.

As a reward for your efforts in making the true spirit of Valentines shine (or maybe just a consolation prize for having to put up with each other for a few days without murdering each other), all characters who had a thread together come away with a new Dual Persona with their fellow captive, all of which come with a bonus immunity to the Charm status! Feel free to use this post for hammering that out.

Aquarius Event End ▼
 
At the end of the 13th hour on the last 22nd day, the calendar will switch over to the 29th. The Aquarius monster has disappeared much like those before it, and the city will finally become aware that they have been reliving the same day seven times, as well as the memories of the Visitors speaking with them.

Thankful for your efforts, the mayor will award you with additional spending money as a cash bonus. The city will also continue to research what exactly happened, and why the Visitors were not affected.

But you've saved the day once again! You have a few more days to help clean up before the month of February, but damage this time is minimal. It's just a question of concentrating on fixing the remaining electrical power that still needs to go out. And the end of month report should arrive soon with an update on the city's status.

Still, many questions remain unanswered. Why did this happen at all? Why were the Visitors themselves not affected? And in time, other things may begin to change...

Feburary Event Information ▼
 
The signups will be when the city update information is posted but for now, allow us to explain this upcoming month's event!

Strrawberry & Chocolate!?
A 5 romance doujin by Pixies
Feburary 14th - 16th

As the popularity of the Visitors continues to soar, the month of February is rather quiet. Enough for the mischievous fairies to get excited about the human celebration of Valentine's Day. They've been reading all about it, you know!

However, it seems that not many of them are participating at all! How boring... Well in that case they'll clearly need their help!

HOW IT WILL WORK:
► Two characters will find themselves in an apartment. Where exactly? No one knows. This could just be fairy space magic. The apartment will be lavishly decorated, the type you'd find in a Hollywood affair, heart shaped bed if you'd like.

► For the duration of the event, both players will be stuck together in that same apartment.

Signups will be required. This is because we will be randomizing people based on preference. If you do have a set partner in mind, please have BOTH of you mention this. However the fun of this will be setting yourself up with people you don't know. Think of it a bit like blind dates only more terrible. However signups will be opened until the 13th at midnight, to give everyone a chance.

► While we will randomize people, we will also take your preferences into account, however keep in mind that we may not be able to fit everyone 100%.

► The fairies will be narrating what you are doing. How they do this and what they say is entirely up to you. You can take turns narrating each other's fairy, or doing it on your own. The idea is that YOU are the conductor of what goes on.

► Characters do not have to always agree with what the fairies say, but they will keep bothering them. For example, they might start writing about how Character A tenderly grabbed Character B in his manly chest and said characters are just shoving each other.

► Characters will spend two IC nights with each other. They do not have to be in the same bed (even if the fairies complain that their matchmaking is not working).

► If the characters do fall in love during this time, the fairies may up the tempo accordingly.

► At the stroke of the 16th, the fairies will release everyone and leave them with copies of the books they wrote and drew on them. What you do with it is up to you! There will be photographs. And artwork. And production notes.

This Is the Age of Aquarius ▼
 
The Age of Aquarius.

Hello and welcome to this month's big event, the AQUARIUS ZODIAC MONSTER EXTRAVAGANZA!

For those of you who have not participated in a Zodiac monster event before, on the 22nd during the 13th Hour, a giant Zodiac Demonic Monster, along with small creatures, will attack the city. Just when Hinoto-Ri thought they wouldn’t have issues with those for a while….

...Well anyway that was what’s supposed to happen. However, the thing is, no one sees it coming….

...no one sees it coming…

...no one sees it coming…

...well you get the idea! For an entire week, the city is going to be repeating the 22nd’s events over and over and over and over....
