I love how Dokutah here is so calm even being assassinated, nice to see Doc in events like this in events even if as a spectator. and platinum joined RI after she tried to run away from the AU and bumped into Dokutah, she's one the ops who are pretty interested in the Doc, so she definitely goes in my list.
After reading this event, i realize the only reason there is no full blown confrontation with shining is because we are not ready for shining alter yet
The last 2 on-screen assassination attempts (Skullshatterer and the Sarkaz who lost faith in Theresa) failed miserably. Amiya stabbed Skullshatterer dead with an Arts shiv while the Sarkaz was so mindbroken when the Doctor diagnosed him with loss of faith that he an hero'd.
I'm very interested how Flatinum join RL after what she try assassinate doctor and letting her become a operater. Also after I read flatinum file it doesn't mention about her joining RL and her file story saying only she inviting us for a date. That's mean she have a crush on us.
The best part of the story, IMO is that finally the armorless union realize that there is a difference between assassinating someone in the dark and fighting them in the open. Roy nearly got his head chop off by Mlynar, Monique was just completely out-skilled by Shining and well platinum... she and her armorless basically got completely "massacre".
I honestly want to see Schwarz, being one of the most dangerous assassins in Terra, tries to take down the entire Armorless Union. I mean, from what I've remembered, she was trained by a clan but betrayed and destroyed them when she was 12(?), has 20 years of combat experience, & can use anything as a weapon (pencils, books, etc according to her archive files). She is like the John Wick of Terra (Kill Lady Ceylon and she will be 100% like him).
@@sherlockoberon_akomi9781 assuming at the very least she started counting combat experiencr at age 12, that would meaan that Shwarz is 32 and in turn Ceylon as well 'cause I though they'd be at least be in their late twenties considering their appearance.
I love how Tola was basically that dude bringing pizza only to see the whole room in chaos. He was not even related to the plot, and he literally walked half the entire world just to find the perfect battle. If there's ever a sequel to this story, it should either be Mylnar looking for both Nearls parents, or Toland's uprising. We need a full husbando banner, just Mylnar, Tola, Dikaiopolis and Toland.
16:30 Actually, Roy "helped" Nearl & Shining by purposely stand in different direction from his boss' instruction, for them to react fast enough to block the Darksteels' arrow aiming at Nightingale. His reason was not to over-provoke NTR knight for them to become the focus for her revenge, which can get in the way of their "other important mission".
@@manhmario1500 i mean it was stated that it would take a fully powered city barrier to stop her charging into the city in Maria event and that is considered her "nerfed" state. The man knows he would get screwed hard.
The whole Kazimierz Major trilogy is probably one of the best ones in terms of writing. The narrative, the themes, the characters and their developments (there are just so many great characters in this story), and different perspectives from all the parties that are involve are all executed in an engaging and satisfying way. Overall a solid story
@@gudusahu3642 Maria Nearl + Pinus Sylvestris + Nearl Light these three make up the whole trilogy. Though Grani event is connected and introduces some lore related stuff (Kazimierz and the knights, lore about Mudrock, lore about Abyssal Hunters.)
@@gudusahu3642 It's the one where they released Fartooth and Ashlock. You can unlock the story by buying the information fragments. It basically adds more context to the characters that are involved in both Maria Nearl and Nearl Light (the likes of Flametail, Ashlock, Fartooth, WIld Mane, Platinum, Nearl, and Malkiewicz).
@@heartunderbruh7735 i have bought few but yet to read them , idk what wrong but i tend to procrastinate reading those and e2 . I have only read malantha and jassica story other from lore or event
Platinum : "The leaders of the Union, and thirty of our members. And you only sent seven ?. Are you saying that we don't stand a chance againts just seven of you ?" 'A Silverlance Pegasus' : "Three of us will suffice" a moment later ... Amorles Union Member : "D-did he seriously cleave that pillar with swing of is sword?. Those pillars have to made out of cardboard or something, right ?" Platinum : "They weren't kidding when they said three is enough. Practically snapping my arrow like toothpicks ... " even Elite Knight Silverlance Pegasus makes our Flatinum strugling , those guys are basically Space Marine from Warhammer 40.000
An almost half hour FrostByte video really speaks to the volume of lore contained in Near Light. The scope of the event's story is massive. Cheers everyone!
Doctor: *Sitting calmly while drinking tea asking Platinum to give up her assassination attempt* In Platinum mind: "Damn, he's hot and know how to dirty talk? Where can I sign up for RI?"
Me: Join us, we have a vacation plan and if you really want I can put you on the Acahualla posting, where we have a convenient waterfall pool to enjoy in walking distance of the branch office. Platinum: Say no more, where do I sign?
Don't forget when Nearl and The Blood Knight is walking towards the hall of heroes, Monique (Lazurite) STILL breaks her promise and attempts to kill Nearl with a 4th arrow only for Shining to deflect it, and whispers to her from afar "4th arrow". Monique literally got scared and chickens out
YEEEEEEY, I WAS WAITING FOR THIS YEAAAAAAH!!! Near Light is a heavily jam-packed story with cutscenes going over half an hour. So many things happening.. so many pieces moving.. So I was worried if some people just don't read them because of that. Yeeeeey!!
That scene toward the end, where Margaret is helping Dikaiopolis to the champions' hall, that was amazing. All the villainous elements coming to stop them, regardless of who sees them, and all the others coming to defend the pair... I got goosebumps reading that!
I loved this event for many reasons : Flatinium getting bullied, Doctor being a chad, Monique triggered because she gets interrupted every single time, Roy being Roy, Toland being Toland
NL is definitely one of my fav bcs of how long it is ngl, this lenght should be the standard for most event/main. it also one of my fav storytelling bcs it tells so much at the same time, huge reality slap that shows "you are not the only char in this story". even Margaret didn't have all the spotlight, nor Sona or Platinum. we can even argue how Doc is probably more important in this event than most even if he only does stuff in the bg. and that's life, you are seldomly the mc and if you are it's hardly matters. NL also shows how grey this "Evil" that Margaret trying to fight, KGCC brought Kazimierz into a powerful economy house like Lungmen and Dossoles, money from those can fuel any war against Ursus with ease. but they're not good either. it's impossible to brand them evil or good in the first place, they're there to fulfill the demands and to push further the economic prospects which EVERY nation with a right mind should do. and the fact that this story ends with not such a decisive result, Margaret and her ideals must and still takes years or decades before the Honor is back in Kazimierz, it's a one time things where hero cane back and everyone changes in an instant like stupid in some story, a change need times and AK shows that very well. all in all i would read this story again and again, so many details and i think in the future it'll probably be more relevant. and without and disrespect, no TLDR or summary is enough to convey the whole tones and moods NL has, like most of recent event in AK (ITW, GA, SN)
I think that's a pessimistic view with the "you are not the mc" lol. Optimistic way of seeing it is "you are the main character of your own story" and that applies to many of the characters in NL
@@podled942 that's realistic, my approach to that is how MC usually the one whose choice and path matter the most, but on NL everyone matter or didn't matter at the same time. the big player of KGCC still exist (the Columbian reporter), Adeptus isn't a single body with single voices, the highest of the knights nobles still hold much power and Doctor played them all in the bg. Margaret was center of the attention for the ppl of Kazimierz but for us the reader she doesn't have the absolute or even majority of the spotlight
Yes, and this is one aspect that I like about AK story. So realistic like in our real life, yet sometimes it's a fantasy nonetheless. And the other, you can't do anything and everything overnight, and the world doesn't revolve around you.
I can't believe how long the story is. Your almost 30 minute video explains it. But, i'm currently enjoying the story so far. Also, i love Roy. And also Monique. Okay i love the Lazurites Dr. Revs, out.
how could people leave dislike on this video? A digestible version of more than 5k worth of words presented in entertaining way is a treasure to this community, especially to those who got bored very easily with walls of texts.
The thing that certains here is that Mlynar is so a tsundere for an uncle. He said that he didn't want to meddle with Nearl sisters' ambition. But helped them multiple times nonetheless, of course, in a tsundere ways. Mlynar doesn't realize that he is middle aged person, does he? lol
I keep seeing people say that he doesn't care foe them like dude, he raised them himself when their parents disappeared and stuff, even going behind the scenes to protect them Its just he's so discouraged by Kazimierz ever since the disappearance of Maria's and Margaret's parents that he became realistic, and of course imagine seeing one of your relatives joining a fight that they could not get out alive, of course I would be pissed too. But the ending got me thinking that he might've revived some of his idealism that he once lost after seeing the entire fiasco that happened, and went out not only to search for the parent's whereabouts, but also himself in the process, which is good and healthy for him, tbh. Overall, I see him as a uncle who gives "tough" love that deeply cares.
"A nail on Nightingale's little finger gets chipped a little bit" NTR Knight: Roy, give up one arm and I might stop the chase... Shining: make it two arms and make that feline wear magical girl cosplay from now on. Roy: It was Platinum!!! Monique: (Nice safe, it's the first time you look likeable!) Centaurea: This job sucks...
After reading about the Armorless Union only being good at assassinating someone but lacks when it comes to fight head-on, It makes me want to see Schwarz, being one of the most dangerous assassins in Terra, tries to take down the entire Armorless Union. She was trained by a clan but betrayed and destroyed them when she was 12(?), has 20 years of combat experience, & she is like John Wick because according to her files, she can use anything as a weapon. Schwarz 1v2 the Lazurites sounds epic to see.
14:57 The way I understood it was that Viviana (contrary to Nearl) doesn't use light arts, but precisely uses darkness arts, that come from the shadows that her candle shows. But Nearl's light was so bright that it overpowered that, so this match was mostly decided by arts ability.
You're doing God's work While i do find the Arknights story very interesting, i can't say the same in the way it's delivered. sadly the way they tell their stories drags on for too long at times and seeing you summarizing things this well really helped out a lot. I look forward to more content like this
I wouldn't say fighting capitalism, just fighting an extreme version of it, similarly to the main plot where it's all about fighting opposite extremes (reunion/ursus army) that end up being equally dangerous, after all Rhodes island has Closure and is a private company
@@postsingluarity6159 you can say that Kazimierz is one of the socioecopolitical model that ensures the highest rate of development as a country. one might argue that dictatorship is the best model for that but the leader are not immortal, one day when they stepped down the replacement could destroy everything built before. but democracy isn't good either, it takes too damn long to develop stuff in exchange for fragile stability
Randomly happened upon this channel and I gotta say it's pretty nice to get rundowns on a lot of info I missed. Subscribed..... That profile picture tho....... *hissing amogus noises*
I was so happy that there’s lot of Platinum in this event, but after reading everything it’s still not enough😞 My girl deserves more love and a long vacation
Gotta say really enjoyed this story.. I didn't actually skip any parts of this one and events like the knights showing up in the moonlight actually got me hyped as silly as that is haha.. looking forward to visiting this part of the world again. :)
Nearl just had a temporary leave. She will just be fixing some sht in Kazimierz and would probably just fly back again when Rhodes Island needs her or if her homies needs her.
I am sure she will be back after all if u read her Operator records she often visits Rhodes island ship to meet Maria and Zofia.Since act 2 will involve Shining and Nightingale a lot with Shining famously saying "Liz u may come to hate me for what i am going to do in Londinium" if anything happens only Nearl can solve the issue.
Giant Arknights Event expectation: Surely this will explain the entire lore of this part. Giant Arknights Event reality: Possibly setting up a civil war with even more lore. More possible Operators (Monique, Candleknight, Bloodknight, Tolar, Mylnar and Shining Alter) to expect. Who is Darksteel and would she be Waifu material? And why does idiot assassin Flatinum go into melee range all the time?
Doubtful about Monique and Bloodknight. Monique, alongside Roy, are busy caring to do their job and fulfilling whatever ambition they have on hand. And Blood Knight is not only retired from combat, but his Oripathy has also reached a very advanced stage due to constant use of his blood arts. And for the icing in the cake Roy may have plans to murder him. Darksteel is the highest rank within the Armorless Union, and one of them, a male, is the founder of it. And Flatinum probably didn't want to go melee, but rather was forced to due to circumstances
Thanks so much for this lore vid. I love the kazimerez lore but oh my god do I hate having to spend 10+ minutes at a time reading just so I can play a 1 minute mission. Not to mention another 10 minutes for the outro lore. This game has a really interesting story but it’s useless to me if it’s told so cryptically and throughout a ton of really long lore dumps, so having videos like this is so helpful. Thanks so much, and I look forward to more videos 👍
I thank you for making this Video since I don't have to lose my brain cells following the story. Also now it solidifies that Platinum won't betray the Dokutah since he gave her a Place where she was left and used
I actually really like this story. It asks good questions regarding the flaws of the extremes of materialism and idealism. While it is wreathed in the usual buzzwords, the underlying conflict of the physical and metaphysical, and why neither can work on its own solely, is conveyed quite well.
Flatinum was so epic failed on every mission in this story. But I guess her seeing Doktah completely unfazed with her assassination attempt really make a deep impression on her, to the point the she comes to work with RI after quit being assassin. (And then falling in love with Doktah, no less)
It's a wonder Platinum didn't leave the Armorless Union sooner. Literally everything that went wrong was someone else's fault and she somehow got blamed for all of it, sometimes even by the people whose fault it actually was.
@@electrickelpish There are a few other factions in Kazimierz, one of which is even MORE powerful than the Armorless Union. She couldn't join ONE of them? I mean she left them to join Rhodes.
@@LegendaryDorkKnight She would easily be killed if she tried to leave normally. Remember that a single Darksteel attack required both Nearl and Shinning to stop it, and Roy gave them both an advantage by putting them in the right position if not then Liz would have been killed. Nothing in Kazimierz except maybe the Silverlances is protecting Platinum from being assassinated for leaving AU. And the Silverlances have no reason to do so.
@@WeatherRein I would argue that someone with insider knowledge of the AU operations and dealings would be EXTREMELY valuable to the Silverlances...or really anyone in Kazimierz to be honest. Anyone looking to stir up trouble (everyone involved with underbelly of the knight competitions) would want the kind of intel Platinum could provide on the Armorless Union, especially those trying to make headlines.
Each sequel event from previous one they always tease new character and even possible alter, makes me wonder when even Wei Yenwu and Fumizuki will be playable and I doubt CN will make both of them playable until or maybe after their 4th AK anniversary.
Bro the silver lance are such Giga chads. Platinum and her squad were but pawns amongst titan fortresses and that scene was so epic. Just imagining them not lending a single care to the armorless gave me chills.
I just loved this hell of story it was epic and so cool and I just love how they can make you cry over a NPC death like it is a main shonen character and yes I really was satisfied with how flatinum got bullied by literally everyone and deserved it + I cut the bullet by swordsman ship learned from shinning
Why did Platinum get a call from the KGCC to abort her mission on killing the Dokutah but Monique still have to do that anyway? Since they both got their orders from the General Chamber, they shouldn't carry out contradictory missions.
That's pretty much the reason, the KGCC is greedy, corrupted and divided Rhodes got the favor from some of them but it wouldn't stop them completly however that would brew more conflict inside it letting RI operate while the KGCC is busy with itself.
Thank god i don't have to read the long ass story in the rerun event. Don't get me wrong i actually looking for this video because Im curious i like the story but i don't want to waste my time reading the whole story knowing it will just get cut and i have to continue the next stage to continue the story

"A nail on Nightingale's little finger gets chipped a little bit"
NTR Knight: Roy, give up one arm and I might stop the chase...
Shining: make it two arms and make that feline wear magical girl cosplay from now on.
Roy: It was Platinum!!!
Monique: (Nice safe, it's the first time you look likeable!)
Centaurea: This job sucks...
After reading about the Armorless Union only being good at assassinating someone but lacks when it comes to fight head-on, It makes me want to see Schwarz, being one of the most dangerous assassins in Terra, tries to take down the entire Armorless Union. She was trained by a clan but betrayed and destroyed them when she was 12(?), has 20 years of combat experience, & she is like John Wick because according to her files, she can use anything as a weapon. Schwarz 1v2 the Lazurites sounds epic to see.
14:57 The way I understood it was that Viviana (contrary to Nearl) doesn't use light arts, but precisely uses darkness arts, that come from the shadows that her candle shows. But Nearl's light was so bright that it overpowered that, so this match was mostly decided by arts ability.
Loved how you say Platinum once the first time, then switch to Flatinum(her true title) for the rest of it. XD
Dont let this distract you from the fact that nightmare knight did a halo reach final stand on the north demons
man to angry too diee
Man, Jamie was a good lad, i really feel bad for him :<
anw, thank you for making this!
You're doing God's work
While i do find the Arknights story very interesting, i can't say the same in the way it's delivered. sadly the way they tell their stories drags on for too long at times and seeing you summarizing things this well really helped out a lot.
I look forward to more content like this
I've been waiting for this video. I love your event story summaries. Thank you!
best summary of Arknight's lore video, thanks frostbyte, now i can understand this event's story at all
Ok that Mlynar guy is cool. Can't wait to see his kit.
Just check DMC3/4/5 ;-)
he is dante but horse, and her niece not a dead weight
Nice - so much reading, was waiting for a short synopsis of the story... half an hour! I guess time to pop some corn and uncork some wine.
The only disappoint thing in this event is no 6* caster candle knight.
Hopefully we get her in the next Kazimierz event.
She's so gorgeous.
@@ian59 I think there's going to be a Leithanien event. Hopefully she'll appear there.
*arts specialists
nah, With HG standards, she's probably a vanguard.
I wouldn't say fighting capitalism, just fighting an extreme version of it, similarly to the main plot where it's all about fighting opposite extremes (reunion/ursus army) that end up being equally dangerous, after all Rhodes island has Closure and is a private company
definitely this
@@hermanwillem7057 So Kazimierz is ancapistan (or objectivistan) in Arknights huh
The more you know
@@postsingluarity6159 you can say that Kazimierz is one of the socioecopolitical model that ensures the highest rate of development as a country. one might argue that dictatorship is the best model for that but the leader are not immortal, one day when they stepped down the replacement could destroy everything built before. but democracy isn't good either, it takes too damn long to develop stuff in exchange for fragile stability
So just fighting capitalism then.
@@hermanwillem7057 -Kazimierz is Polish Singapore--
Randomly happened upon this channel and I gotta say it's pretty nice to get rundowns on a lot of info I missed. Subscribed..... That profile picture tho....... *hissing amogus noises*
Can't wait for 3rd anniversary on global !
I was so happy that there’s lot of Platinum in this event, but after reading everything it’s still not enough😞 My girl deserves more love and a long vacation
Imagine Mlynar become an operator and the only line you get when recruit him is "..."
Thank you so much man
Gotta say really enjoyed this story.. I didn't actually skip any parts of this one and events like the knights showing up in the moonlight actually got me hyped as silly as that is haha.. looking forward to visiting this part of the world again. :)
I know this is a bad thing to ask but...
If nearl left Rhodes won't that mean we just lost a large amount of defensive power..
we still have EO but yes it's a considerable loss bcs Margaret have been with us since long
Nearl just had a temporary leave. She will just be fixing some sht in Kazimierz and would probably just fly back again when Rhodes Island needs her or if her homies needs her.
I am sure she will be back after all if u read her Operator records she often visits Rhodes island ship to meet Maria and Zofia.Since act 2 will involve Shining and Nightingale a lot with Shining famously saying "Liz u may come to hate me for what i am going to do in Londinium" if anything happens only Nearl can solve the issue.
Yeah! But Pinus Sylvestres team and Maria and Zofia joined us after the event so we're still good.
we can just do a
"Stand by for margaret fall"
This event makes it pretty clear that many operators join much later than their release dates would imply.
Thank you so much for the summary. Candle knight as an op in future Kazimierz event lets goo
Nearl Light was like I reading and doing again SHIRFT EX4 all over because both of events are extremely big of reading and stuff to do
Giant Arknights Event expectation: Surely this will explain the entire lore of this part.
Giant Arknights Event reality:
Possibly setting up a civil war with even more lore.
More possible Operators (Monique, Candleknight, Bloodknight, Tolar, Mylnar and Shining Alter) to expect.
Who is Darksteel and would she be Waifu material?
And why does idiot assassin Flatinum go into melee range all the time?
Doubtful about Monique and Bloodknight. Monique, alongside Roy, are busy caring to do their job and fulfilling whatever ambition they have on hand. And Blood Knight is not only retired from combat, but his Oripathy has also reached a very advanced stage due to constant use of his blood arts. And for the icing in the cake Roy may have plans to murder him.
Darksteel is the highest rank within the Armorless Union, and one of them, a male, is the founder of it.
And Flatinum probably didn't want to go melee, but rather was forced to due to circumstances
Thanks so much for this lore vid. I love the kazimerez lore but oh my god do I hate having to spend 10+ minutes at a time reading just so I can play a 1 minute mission. Not to mention another 10 minutes for the outro lore. This game has a really interesting story but it’s useless to me if it’s told so cryptically and throughout a ton of really long lore dumps, so having videos like this is so helpful. Thanks so much, and I look forward to more videos 👍
I thank you for making this Video since I don't have to lose my brain cells following the story. Also now it solidifies that Platinum won't betray the Dokutah since he gave her a Place where she was left and used
I don't remember exactly but khagan quest was mentioned by kashchei
Technically Kal'tist did talk about it in A Walk In The Dust story (During her time in Victoria, I'm pretty sure) 👀
khagan tremple gaul empire in their march ofc kaschey would remember since he is part of ageless ursus
I feel like the execution of this side story was the best they did so far
I actually really like this story. It asks good questions regarding the flaws of the extremes of materialism and idealism. While it is wreathed in the usual buzzwords, the underlying conflict of the physical and metaphysical, and why neither can work on its own solely, is conveyed quite well.
That Platinum with three knights as a meme, that made me laugh :D
Flatinum was so epic failed on every mission in this story. But I guess her seeing Doktah completely unfazed with her assassination attempt really make a deep impression on her, to the point the she comes to work with RI after quit being assassin. (And then falling in love with Doktah, no less)
Well, we allknow who Doctor is. If it's just a single unit attacking, he can just eat it and still win xD
It's a wonder Platinum didn't leave the Armorless Union sooner. Literally everything that went wrong was someone else's fault and she somehow got blamed for all of it, sometimes even by the people whose fault it actually was.
Pretty sure leaving the union meant death, since she carried sensitive information as the middle manager
@@electrickelpish There are a few other factions in Kazimierz, one of which is even MORE powerful than the Armorless Union. She couldn't join ONE of them? I mean she left them to join Rhodes.
@@LegendaryDorkKnight She would easily be killed if she tried to leave normally.
Remember that a single Darksteel attack required both Nearl and Shinning to stop it, and Roy gave them both an advantage by putting them in the right position if not then Liz would have been killed.
Nothing in Kazimierz except maybe the Silverlances is protecting Platinum from being assassinated for leaving AU. And the Silverlances have no reason to do so.
@@WeatherRein I would argue that someone with insider knowledge of the AU operations and dealings would be EXTREMELY valuable to the Silverlances...or really anyone in Kazimierz to be honest. Anyone looking to stir up trouble (everyone involved with underbelly of the knight competitions) would want the kind of intel Platinum could provide on the Armorless Union, especially those trying to make headlines.
I read the whole story but still watching this because the event was so good
Each sequel event from previous one they always tease new character and even possible alter, makes me wonder when even Wei Yenwu and Fumizuki will be playable and I doubt CN will make both of them playable until or maybe after their 4th AK anniversary.
Can't believe you called Platinum "Flatinum"...
I Thank you!
there only need 3 silverlance pegasi to stop 30 AU
like "I have 7 people but that is overkill, let make it interesting by using only 3 people"
INTERESTING...
Thank you for a wonderful summary of the arknights story as always 🙏
Thank you for this video. I can’t beat the event and thought I would miss out on this interesting story
Bro the silver lance are such Giga chads. Platinum and her squad were but pawns amongst titan fortresses and that scene was so epic. Just imagining them not lending a single care to the armorless gave me chills.
one day we will get a story about FrostByte262
Me roll gacha while Gravel stop Platinum:
I just loved this hell of story it was epic and so cool and I just love how they can make you cry over a NPC death like it is a main shonen character and yes I really was satisfied with how flatinum got bullied by literally everyone and deserved it + I cut the bullet by swordsman ship learned from shinning
seeing this summary makes me wish so hard that there will be a shining alter released in the future sometime
Szewczyk is such a mouthful, i still have zero idea how its pronounced.
21:45
Shining : Another shot ?
Monique : Sorry, I quit. 😅
Can we all agree this was the best event yet story wise?
Fantastic conclusion to Kazimierz storyline.
Wow, for a land renowned as "The Land of Knights" the knights are less so chivalric knights of valor, and more so corporate sports athletes
At 7:10 I think the audio glitched for a bit when he was narrating
If they're Capitalistic, where borgirs?
here because of mlynar reveal
So this event happen before platinum joined rhodes island? damn, the timeline is kinda confusing at first but now i got it
6:43 clinically motivated knight
How dare you call mah girl Platinum Flatinum. Angry noise------------
Hehe Flat inum
17:48 Oddly enough skill 1 has better chances.
Was not expecting that Bill Wurtz reference and that's even better.
Frostbyte:Why are we fighting capitalism
Philippines Cuba and indonesia:say that again
USSR: you ask again i will send you to gulag
diakopolis is such a fking bad ass chad, cant wait to have him as the final boss in the Arknights fighitng game
thanks for summary
24:13 Are each Silverlance really that strong?
HOLD ON HOLD ON…. 27 MINUTES IS OVERSIMPLIFIED?!?! WHAT THE FUCK DID I SKIP
It's funny how whenever the lector reads a name, it's pronounced differently every time
Why did Platinum get a call from the KGCC to abort her mission on killing the Dokutah but Monique still have to do that anyway? Since they both got their orders from the General Chamber, they shouldn't carry out contradictory missions.
That's pretty much the reason, the KGCC is greedy, corrupted and divided Rhodes got the favor from some of them but it wouldn't stop them completly however that would brew more conflict inside it letting RI operate while the KGCC is busy with itself.
Maaan shining !!! Waiting for alter shining range guard. Hohohoho
Thank god i don't have to read the long ass story in the rerun event.
Don't get me wrong i actually looking for this video because Im curious i like the story but i don't want to waste my time reading the whole story knowing it will just get cut and i have to continue the next stage to continue the story
TLDR: omg, Mylnar shoud have been the limited operator, my man just stop a war without lifting a finger
17:48 Sona? *"His"* Skill 3?
It do be like that sometimes
Did you just assumed?
Nearl just left rhodes island for a while. If her job is done then she will came back to rhodes island eventually.
Can't wait for this event to be animated, surely this is one of the most epic events in any gacha game ever
