    Furina's character arc is great. You start off annoyed by her dramatic personality, and as the story continues, you start to realize that she's keeping quiet on something massive. Before the big reveal, everyone is so frustrated with her because she keeps keeping quiet, so the big reveal that she's been quietly suffering for centuries for the people's safety just makes everyone feel so bad for her.

      What makes her arc so shattering is the start of the end, where her secret gets out. The way she just shuts down, thinking she failed, thinking the 500 years of progress she had made were for nothing, the emptiness in her eyes, to her walking out of the opera house and regaining her light...

      ​@@dominustempus8969 both of them were a bit bad in this quest, traveler was a bit more chill but they still didn't listen to furina's boundaries and some of their answers tried to justify paimon whose dialogue did annoy me a lot of times, it was so weird they wrote them like that
      actually the english translation is way worse with the things paimon said, when i read it in spanish it was a bit upseting but not like that, there's a line after furina tells the traveler about how she feels and paimon says ''paimon is surprised you're making yourself go through all of this'' but in spanish is ''paimon didn't imagine you were being so hard on yourself''
      another one paimon says ''that sounded so smug! ugh the second hand embarrasment is unbearable'' but spanish says ''and you're proud of that? that's embarrasing''
      the conversation at the start sounds more light hearted on spanish too, like yes it still sounds as if they're trying to make her feel guilty which is very frustrating(they're not trying to at all but it sounds like it in the way they keep saying the people at the troupe are gonna feel sad) but the game tries to throw some jokes from furina here and there to make it less serious while in english it plays without them so it feels very rude when she's clearly saying she has boundaries
      like is still not good but for some reason the english version makes paimon sound like she really dislikes furina at times which is very weird
      i still didn't like it tho, they didn't treat her very well compared to raiden's mission when furina is clearly a bit traumatized about acting and they keep pushing her, yes is later clear she still wants to act on musicals but the quest doesn't show this progression properly they just push her into this situation even when she said no, if she was showing to be doubful since the start its more understandable but she wasn't so it feels disrespectful

      The way Paimon treated her in her story quest pissed me off bro, I like Paimon but sometimes it seems like the writers make her annoying and an asshole on purpose, Traveler isn't too far behind either, there was that scene where he takes her hand and takes her without her consent, and she has already refused saying that she wants to act or get involved. Deep down we know she wanted to know more about the It's a piece from "the little oceanid", but wasn't there a better way for the traveler to bring her instead of just forcing her physically???

    What I noticed in spite of anything... Fontaine 2d animation style is just... What's the word? Complexity dynamic and colorful? Like its tailored to be western type of comics but in anime style drawing? 😂
    The songs and choice of coloring only cementing that details for me. Also, not just Fontaine, I feel like the 2d cutscene getting better and better like the story did. Hopefully they keep us surprised in this kind of setting 😂

    Notre langue française est tellement mélodieuse lors d'un chant, un opéra ou bien même la narration part le biais de la musique ! Ce qui est le plus surprenant, c'est de voir les retours positifs des autres pays ne comprenant par forcément ce qui est dit/raconté.

    Its crazy that in 4.0 I go from thinking Furina is annoying to being the character I most resonate with after act 5.

This whole story just blew me away.
