Welcome to another Heaven Burns Thread, where we see the the future and finally take the next step!Big news, Chapter 6 will be the final main story chapter involving Jun Maeda. This essentially means the main story will be over after this. However, we do not know how many parts Chapter 6 will have. And WFS made clear they would support the game beyond the story's end.The 4.5th anniversary was amazing and gave us the long coveted IchiAo unison style. Finally a new yuri unison!This goes along with the anniversary event, It's a Wonderful Party, one of the highest rated events in a while and one that opens up a whole mountain of new questions and story possibilities. Just what is the Paradise Project?Squad 19A (Tezuka's old squad) has been announced as a proper new gacha unit and the first of them has already had a banner. They use Void element and seem to be relevant for Chapter 6.The global server just finished the very gay Minori event and will be getting the Truth Squad special event soon. 5.3 has also been announced to still release this year. They are nearly caught up now!For some reason they released Sharo and Yanagi ASMR which follow in the footsteps of Isuzu and Risa's in being yuri friendly and more like voice dramas. Sharo's is basically just 30 minutes of her gushing about and moaning Ruka's name.Nanamin's VA replaced Tsukasa's VA as a regular on HBR streams. The HBR 4koma has hit its final page unfortunately, but it went out with a very tantalizing 10 year flash forward which gave us lots of RukaYukki art!
Ichiko's paradise
>>4602039The greatest gay breakdown in all of HBR has finally hit the global server. Would any of us have believed that the incest would be this explicit when this game started? Ichiko is an absolute menace.I just wish she had called herself their wives instead of husband. This certainly makes up for the crappy wedding style at least.
>>4602049Absolutely based
>>4602049I wish they repeated her rant in the background, like they did Sharo's at one point.
>>4602171She actually does, starting from the "There you are. I will say this again" part. But unlike Sharo or Irene"s rambles it doesnt go on for the whole convo. Only for a few lines by the others.

>>4602040>Yanagi ASMRWe only got a Sharo summary. What's happening in this one?
https://x.com/heavenburnsred/status/2099815508312817868New story event seems to be a story tie-in? It's clearly more serious than the usual stuff. Whoever is still not up to date with the main story really needs to hurry up.
>>4602975Is it possible it's Maeda writing again? Agree with the comments that it feels kinda Higuchi adjacent. First thought was 19A though.
>>4603063If it's a story tie-in then chances are high Maeda's hands are involved.>19AHonestly highly possible. Their little introduction episode was okay, but I feel like we need a bit more to really get their position in the main story.
Maeda hasnt written a 31B event since at least Byakko's. I dont think he even did the 4.5th anni Ichigo event? So even if it was a Higumin event there is no guarantee it will involve Maeda.
Uhhhh... yeah I got no idea what this even is about anymore. Those visuals are completely crazy.....maybe Fubuki?https://x.com/heavenburnsred/status/2100177880915509365
Yeah, sorry to spoil it before the stream, but the styles are already up on HBR quest, so you would find out one way or another.It's Fubuki and Risa-mama. I don't think they will do another Risa event, so we are getting a Fubuki event. Not too sure on whether this will be a story tie-in anymore. However Maeda did say he wanted to write the Fubuki event, so maybe he will.
Fubuki's SS3. Looks absolutley AMAZING. I would roll for this just because of the art alone desu.It's a fire debuffer style. Has Fubuki's gimmick of her sacrificing her own DP.This is a very solid style, but I think there are better fire debuffers right now.
Risa's SS4... well it is kind of hard to gauge, because it's ult has a unique attribute. Infantalisation? She is a healer mixed with a lightning debuffer of all things.I dont know if going all in on the kindergarten teacher is really a great idea for a style. It makes sense for her character, but it really lacks imagination. When will they give her an actual volleyball style?
>>4603710>Looks absolutley AMAZING. I would roll for this just because of the art alone desu.Same here. I'm excited for more fan art of her too.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vx-3PY_s9jIFubuki's event trailer... yeah this has a very different feel from the usual events. Fubuki is one of the few characters actually allowed to be a harsh bitch (next to awakened Tsukasa), so she will bang heads.
>>4603751It's two Maeda events in a row... we're eating good as they say.
>>4603752Did Maeda write the Ichigo anni event? It didn't feel like his writing at all.
>>4603753Just rechecked the credits, it was him.
>>4603753Yeah. With the Fubuki one I was 98% sure just by the trailer dialogue it was him.>It didn't feel like his writing at all.Haven't read his older works yet besides starting his novel recently, but the Ichigo one felt extremely HBR Maeda to me. Also this Fubuki event feels very Nekogarizoku no Osa coded.
>>4603756Somehow missed it then. Probably because I was crying through the Aimi version of Dance Dance Dance.>>4603757I mean yeah he wanted to write the Fubuki event, so I didnt doubt that.The Ichigo event was just... how should I say this? It felt a bit too subtle for Maeda.
>>4603757>very Nekogarizoku no Osa codedNo way Maeda is gonna let anyone else touch Fubuki and Seika in a meaningful way.
>>4603751>mentally ill Fubuki gets mind broken by 31D treating her nicely>lashes out and tries to kill 31A>somehow all of it has romantic overtones with Ruka???Maeda really loves shipping every single mental case with Ruka.
>>4603065>Their little introduction episode was okay, but I feel like we need a bit more to really get their position in the main story.Hopefully we get to see 19A Tezuka in flashbacks too. Was doing anki and noticed a speech similarity between Tezuka from Communication Breakdown and Takamiya and it made me imagine how they would all interact, must be extremely funny to have Tezuka in that group.Before this short story I thought they weren't necessarily on the best of terms after splitting up. But apparently they were working together in some capacity still.
>>4603851>mentally ill Fubuki gets mind broken Since this event requires chapter 3 she probably "knows" too.
>>4603935I just can't Imagine 30-something looking Tezuka in the middle of all these teens. With 31A she felt like their guardian who goes on a field trip with them... And the nightly "unison training" felt like straight out of an erotic doujin about the protagonist molesting the neighbourhood milf
>>4603940It would be the kind of despair that fuels her passion, but how many gosh darn people are gonna find out the truth before the current chapter. It gets a bit annoying to have to imagine all these girls were in the know retroactively when they behave like usual in the main story.
>>4602449What is it with WFS and turning lolita senpai into a Gundam anyway?
The Fubuki event is actually bonkers. But I cant deny it kept me invested.
>>4604089Absolutely. I can't believe Fubuki's backstory is simultaneously this banal and batshit insane.Are we just supposed to accept this as the status quo for her now? She can win the war on her fucking own.
Haven't read it (global peasant) but the story of an indie one-woman DSBM band sounds fascinating.
>>4604172That is (mostly) really not what the event is about. Though it does play some part in why she is so suicidal.
Fubuki SA is a pain in the ass. But for the Asami mission I need to get 2 million. Ugh.
Alright, I have finally taken the time to play Misarin's Snap Event.It was pretty fun. Way gayer than I expected too. 31D really is the poly squad at this point. I mean, they even included Aina as one of the love interests? Truly galaxy brained.The basic idea of Misato having to go on multiple dates at once reminds me of old VNs/anime gag episodes. I laughed a lot actually. The ending was predictably saccharine, but they did literally frame it as if she was cheating on all the girls.I've also noticed the orca reference to Aina's event, so this takes place after that. Same as Fubuki's event... I guess they treat Aina's event as the latest status quo of 31D.
>>4605415Aina: I am shocked how they really went with it on her. From Misarin using Orca language to say some sexual stuff to her, to the gag about her indirectly saying she is trying to catch Misarin for herself. They were holding hands when holding the fishins rod too. Crazy official crackship.Risa: Genuinely super sensual? Misarin is such a gay mess around her now. Having her whisper in her ear or pressing her massive Risas against her back gets her genuinely excited. She straight up had to avoid Risa sucking her finger, because she thought she might lose her mind.Akari: When stretching as a warm up before playing Tennis Misarin has an entire gay monologue in her mind about how Akari's Akaris are pressing against her and goes into insane detail about how Date's body is perfect in all the right ways...
>>4605417But while her canon reactions are gay enough, her fantasies go above and beyond. During the event you can make choices and only one is correct and canon, but the other two are always delusions Misarin has out of sleep deprivation and exhaustion. And the things she imagines... absolute yuri kino.She can imagine Risa actually measuring her temperature by touching foreheads which makes her nearly orgasm, she imagine Akari giving her CPR where she goes on a rant about how perfect Akari's body is and that she wants to be with her forever. And for some reason she imagines that Aina wants to lick her whole body from head to toe...This snap was more explicit on the yuri than even that Amari one!
>Bartender Minori eventHow do you mix a Yanagi?
>>4606205By making the best cocktail you can imagine and then adding unnecessary high heels to it.
Persona collab on global soon
Using Sharo's marriage skill forcefully on girls is the best.
>>4607423
>>4607470Irene is into it
Oh my goodness. I never realized Hisame was trying to give subliminal messaging to Inori... She is actively corrupting her!
Which of them is better for my ice team? I saw some tier lists put this Shiki in their comp, but I don't really get why.
>>4607796I guess because her Ex skill has no usage limit and she has Ice Mark to buff full ice parties. Personally even if I had that Shiki, I'd still use Tsukasa because I get the Ice Mark from Aoi, too.
>>4607797Oh she has ice mark? I didn't even realize. I also got white suit Aoi, so I guess, there is no point for me to use her. Thanks for the info.
>>4608145This is a reference to what happened in the Fubuki event btw.
>>4609119
>>4609116Huh. I don't think there is that much of a height gap between KareTsuka?
I can't believe JP is doing an Angel Beats collabs rerun with nothing new, not even new styles. Like why not give some to the girls who only got an S?
>>4609641Pretty suspicious that they added relic orbs for all AB chars, including the two S-style only Hisako and Shiori. Fubuki Event is ending in two weeks, so maybe AB4 with new styles on the 16th?Giving new players some time to go through the first three stories.Iirc last time they rerun AB, the older stories relaunched a little earlier before the new one came out, too.
>>4609902I don't really feel like we need an AB4, but you are right that this implies a new incoming AB banner at least.
>>4609903Yeah banner only could be a thing unless Maeda has something to tell.Btw I forgot to add, for people who missed the stream there is a free 10-pull ticket you can get through the webshop with the serial code ANGELBEATS.
>>4609904The webshop's kinda bad to use desu. But thanks.
That guaranteed AB SS ticket was pretty good. Yui was the only character I didnt have because I didnt pull her with my 50 free pulls during the AB3 event period. Now I have all characters. My accolade collection doesnt feel that gaping hole anymore.
Lolicon shippers actually got fuel recently, which is absurd.
>Fubuki after her insane event has to be restrained to contain her power level
Pompom, protector of Earth.
I've always struggled to make a good dark party. I've recently been really lucky on a bunch of generally good Dark styles, but I just can't find any good synergy. Like yeah... unison Wakki is good, but she doesn't jive with this team when I actually play. She clearly wants Unison Bungo in the same team.I love using Isuzu for her free infinite ult and I somehow got so many dupes for her that I max LB'd her, but her being a token character completely goes against this team's synergy.Having Phantom Ruka and swimsuit Aoi on the team might be overkill for debuffs actually?I don't know. Can this team be salvaged or do I need to reshuffle?
>>46102971. You aren't running the Admiral2. Main attacker isn't High LB3. Yamawaki at low LB so she doesn't give the OD boost and can't be the main attacker4. Missing Byakko, probably trade Isuzu for her if you get her.
>>4610413I dont have SS3 Byakko.I also dont have cheerleader Misarin.Obviously I can't pull more LBs for Ichigo and Yamawaki out of thin air. I'm still grinding resonance shards.But that seems to tell me that aside from Isuzu the team isn't awful? Just needs to be raised a bit more.
>>4610426>the team isn't awful?Yeah you're running most of the strongest characters (see https://game8.jp/heavenburnsred/535263) but you are missing the Glue that makes everything stick together (the admiral). There isn't much room to improve aside from that + Byakko and higher LB's on your core chars (DPS and debuffers need the most raw stats since they need to roll against the enemies border). Maybe check your dark units if you have any of the main attacker from the wikilist at higher LB's since they should just out DPS Ichigo if they are LB3+.(even SS1 Natsume from the green tickets could help) But to be honest i'd suggest just waiting for a banner with Misarin in it and grabbing her.Also Wakki doesn't need resonance shards but just normal ones despite being purple so if you need a way to spend them she's your best bet.
>>4610484>check your dark units if you have any of the main attacker from the wikilist at higher LB'sI got unison Ruka at LB2 and Oktoberfest Adel at LB3. But then I would have to replace my demon minion Adel with her, which would severely limit my buffs...>Wakki only needs SS shardsOh really? I totally missed that. In that case I can at least get her to LB2 right away. I have been neglecting getting SS shards, because I am saving for resonance shard (which are twice as expensive).
>>4610522If you have to post Ai slop, please at least make sure it doesnt have body horror like this.
