    Vigoro's ship and the Delphinus effectively taking turns punching each other in the face isn't what I expected from this fight, but I really should have. I was hoping he'd meet a bit more of a definitive end here, but oh well. Maybe Aika can still get her personal revenge in now.

    The Draco's cannon can't use physical shells unless the crew lives inside hollowed-out ammo like some sort of shipping container hobo camp. Anime logic at its finest.

    I admit I’m a bit confused why the crew is so aggressively hunting for the Moon Crystals - the point is to keep them out of Valua’s hands - this one was sealed at the bottom of a sacred mountain right next to the Yafutoman capital - the Valuans would have had to conquer Yafutoma to start searching for it, and at that point, having conquered more than half the world, how much more damage would them having a Giga even do? Instead the gang wrecks the temple guardians and seizes the crystal… and just carries four of them on board their ship which regularly fights Valuans - they already got captured and only kept two crystals from falling into Valuan hands because Enrique defected, this seems like a bad plan

    @TheLazyFinn 3 месяца назад +1

    I have a feeling that Jon won't be using it much but to everyone else: the last green AoE spell, Nox I think, hits all enemies and if they are green weak and don't have a ton of magic resist they can take A LOT of damage, basically a room clearer for chaff enemies plus it can poison. Also at 37:00 when the Draco fight begins, Jon could have used the new crew member to max out the spirit like he was talking about earlier.. That would be 3 or so moonstone cannon blasts.

    How can it be the symbol of royal succession if it's been in a dormant volcano for years? If you don't need it present to have a monarchy, then sending it with Vyse shouldn't be a big issue.

    tbh I don't know why it took me several episodes to realize the ship is called "Delphinus" because it's crown prince's (In French tradition - dauphin, because they literally had dolphins on their coat of arms) personal flagship. Maybe cause I always assumed Valua are mostly based off the Spanish.

    Wait, if the prince took command of the Tenkou why did they attack you when you first arrived? He clearly stated that he was keeping them from going round attacking everybody so do they only sometimes follow his orders? Or did he mean that they don't attack people nearly as much as they used to?

      I assume he doesn't have complete control over them since the traders seem a bit afraid of them still. I would assume he probably has them restricted to the bare minimum amount of raiding but there's always the possibility that he simply didn't provide instructions regarding foreigners.
