Congrats on beating the boss and 4k deaths, raocow!

Also, that said "The Heart of the Baneful".

From the question in the video, if you waited too long on the red shards, they will poke you and disappear when the next set of red shards get summoned.

For people who beat the game already, how many times did it take to beat the final boss the first time? For me, Azurel was 125 deaths, and the final boss was 994, which feels ridiculous.

461 times. I don't know my Azurel count, but Supreme JJ was by and large the most by a huge margin.

On the note of Gargamel's cat:

Azrael is the name name ascribed by tradition to the Angel of Death (a.k.a. the "Grim Reaper") who, while never named explicitly in the Bible, is depicted with a scythe and wearing pale-green robes. Gargamel clearly liked the name and thought it was appropriate for his pet cat.

Azurel in this game might be named after Azrael with an intentional mutation, might be named after an obscure angel I'm not aware of, or might just be a made-up name knowingly (or otherwise) following the -el suffix on Hebrew names meaning "Of God". Ariel means "God's lion" for example.

No idea for sure but it's probably around the same as Whattayabrian's. I only know it took 799 to get a flawless kill.

Congratulations raocow, you're a hop, skip and a jump away away from the ending!

And the jump portion of that metaphor is a huge one. Stay comfortable.

That happened.

Next time Rao will probably make Waluigi way harder than he actually is.

So, I've been saying that Rubi is the worst, but Amethyst is challenging her. "Yes, I can summon platforms, but only the yokai kind!"

Also god dammit Myougi. I would have been really happy if the big guy had just bit her head off after she did that.

I didn't get to play any of the games past HG/SS ; _ ;

Also, who wants to bet that Myougi does some kind of dramatic turn to helping A because daddy yelled at her?

As far as I can tell from spoilery vids, she doesn't./

Dang it Solgryn, you had the perfect opportunity to add more jiggly boobs to the protagonist roster…

See I just don't get that part. Solgryn has all these plot conviniences to explain why the angels can't do this or that, but there's no explanation offered as to why Amethyst will span platforms behind you. Even something as simple as "I have very limited control over this" would've been something.

It's probably the biggest thing that bugs me about the game story-wise.

Alright fair enough, I missed that. That's on me. It's still kind of absurd that that manifests itself like that, and Amethyst can help fight enemies easy-peasy, but the game did say something about it, so I was wrong.

I didn't comment on it last video, but this is the best looking area in the game so far. And this looks to be the first good boss since Electram.
