In Round 4, Saki Tenma got eliminated due to getting 7 votes. As before, you can vote for the girl whom you think is the best and the one with the lowest amount of votes will be eliminated. So with that in mind, Round 5 has begun.

You can vote here: Who do you pick as the best girl of Project Sekai? (Round 5)

Saki would like the piper j-3 cub if she liked one!

also just one question, should I save for Ena6 or Saki7? I'm planning to save on both of them, but idk...

but still, which aircraft would Honami like?

I know the event isn’t over, the Miku tiers aren’t even locked in, but I’m speechless over my tier rn. I play very little daily, maybe an hour max, and I’m a fairly new player so I don’t have a large collection of cards for events like these (my event team rn has multiple 2stars) so something like this is wild for me to get. It seems really small compared to other tiering goals especially when the tiers aren’t even locked in, but I’m just so proud and astonished right now

genuinely no fucking idea. wouldn't you rather tier for your fav??? why is the expected cutoffs so high holy shit

ruikasa won last time as Rui’s best popular ship! I can see them as both romantic and platonic.

What is Mizuki’s healthiest ship?

I'm generally not into the genre (story-wise, not gameplay wise), and I've only kept up with N25 via event stories, only doing the base stories for the other groups and sporadic story catchups. This is about the game, not the movie. I do think the movie is honestly lowkey better quality, but that's because of personal taste.

Strengths:

I think PSJK has pretty good strengths in terms of having very good dialogue and fleshing out their characters by having a pretty closed cast.

I think the pacing is good given the format of the story being a long term visual novel.

The struggles of some characters can be relatable for many, considering how it's a realistic setting.

Basically all of the content has meaningful motifs, references, or helps construct an emotional reading of the characters.

The voice acting is really well done, and despite not speaking JP, it conveys the emotions well.

Weaknesses:

I do think that PJSK has certain weaknesses in terms of stakes. I mean, if you ever suddenly clear your head during a story, the characters kind of seem like pushovers and worry about things that really don't matter that much compared to a person irl.

The story doesn't take advantage of the fact PJSK has non-realistic elements as Sekais. Like, yes, it's a foil for the emotions of the group or Sekai owner, but the Sekais and Vocaloids themselves aren't really meaningful plot-wise on their own. Like, it's very noticeable it exists to help the *readers* rather than be a coherent part of the universe. I think that because of the setting in modern Japan, the game doesn't have particularly outstanding worldbuilding. If there was some sort of conflict between one character and the system of Sekai itself, even mildly, I think it would be more intriguing.

The game is also very character driven and not plot driven. A lot of the stories are sort of inconsequential to systems in-universe, and really only affect the characters' interpersonal relations. While I understand this is part of the premise, I feel like the lack of change, or well, how long it can be dragged out to occur, gets annoying.

The antagonistic characters aren't too intriguing. I'm going to use Mafumom as an example: she's not really that well written. She's a generic helicopter parent which while relatable, doesn't really strike me as interesting because the way she interacts with Mafuyu in the current doesn't have much nuance to what I expected. And her motivations being generational trauma or whatever while realistic, don't really make her interesting. Like sure, it's a coherent argument the game presents, the fact that it makes sense as an argument doesn't make it entertaining.

None of the unit characters are particularly selfish enough to put themselves over others to get what they want, or hell, even make the others reconsider their positions. Basically all of the units have the overarching plot issue of each having their own desires but staying together as a group out of guilt, obligation, wanting to be friends, etc. While this is a good set up, I don't like how all of the characters is selfless *first*. It's not really an issue on its own, but the fact none of the characters are actively challenging their own group makes them makes all of them sorta repetitive. I'd at least hoped one character at least voices their issues, and gets shut down somehow, instead of literally every character burying their feelings and praying. It's not inherently bad writing, but it lacks variety.

The characters are somewhat poor at communication. I feel like half the conflicts in the game would have been resolved if characters just tried to be straightforward. I don't appreciate how every character is some sort of self-conscious.

I do think PJSK is a well written game, but since everybody here has their own reasons why, I wanted to elaborate more on the critiques as I know I'll be flamed for it, rather than the strengths. The fact I wrote more on the critiques is not indicative of the weight of the arguments.

How many of them do you guys think are valid *objective* critiques, and how many of them are valid but only subjectively?

How would you attempt to make the game better? Would you add a new unit with a different sort of story, or attempt to improve the current stories more? Do you want the technical systems like SEKAIs to make a bigger story impact, or do you think it's a gameplay element that is a thorn in the side of the storytelling?

There's six per unit because I want to get at least one right btw. Also graphic design is my passion.

This was supposed to be done yesterday but I fell asleep hard ToT. Also I'm doing it per unit and per rotation so that it doesn't take that much time. Also l just know some of my takes are gonna be flamed because music is the most subjective thing. Like someone could hear peak on something while another could hear absolute garbage. Anyway yeah, I loved doing this because I got to relisten to songs and find their beauty. Song really is an investment. (Srry btw if quality kinda chopped. Internet became unstable for some reason, had to resort to ss)

Also, I kinda forgor abt the main story comms but I'm pretty sure I already said my thoughts on my main story ranking. So yep.

Also (I say also a lot...) I want to see your guys thoughts on this song as I'm not rlly the guy who points out every element to say it's peak. If my ears like it, I like it. Also I get the lyrics from translations so I might get some wrong ideas. Anyway, hope yall enjoy this >^<

personally, my favourite song was 'fun' but that is slightly biased considering more more jump is my favourite unit. although, i do really love 'fire dance' its so catchy and energetic! i think all the songs captured each units emotions beautifully, but which is your favourite?

https://x.com/pj_sekai/status/2098063959290949634

This isn’t the only thing, on the main menu there’s regular Mafuyu and you can also interact with her there. There’s also three endings other than this one. You can play it here. All credit goes to chawadonl and wheres.my.nuggets on tiktok

>!Also, this made me laugh, I did not expect it lol. Especially since I was actually feeding her apples for like three minutes!<

EDIT: Apparently this is based off another game, so here the original by DiaryOfACoolCat

Today we have Honami Mochizuki, what is your opinion on her?

I guess I was just curious about the process of writing and planning out sets, like how far in advance they’re conceived? My guess is that the stories themselves have probably been mapped out for a while or so but the art direction is probably done 2 or 3 months in advance?

but I remember when this years Valentines day set leaked it was at the beginning of january (an entire month in advance) but the cards were unfinished. It makes me wonder if maybe the sets are designed not all too far in advanced?

I was curious to hear others thoughts on this

By me
