閑話【いつか過ごすかもしれない聖夜Ⅲ】

プレゼント交換会を終えて、互いに贈り物を眺める静かな聖夜。
ロミアは可愛らしい耳がついたフード付きブランケットを羽織りながら、プレゼントを手に取るイルミナの様子をそっと伺った。
スカーレットに手伝ってもらいながら作った手袋は気に入ってもらえるだろうか。
彼女の心に浮かんだ少しの不安は、上機嫌にゆれるモフモフの尻尾でかき消される。
「えへへっ。ふわふわ、モフモフ。とってもあったかいですね、イルミナちゃん!」
「……うん」
一生懸命飾り付けたツリーの下で、二人は会話に花を咲かせる。
そんなクリスマスの光景を、三つの影が微笑まし気に眺めていた。
「あーあ。これは二人とも、しばらく寝付かないね。僕らはまだまだ寒空の下で待機みたいだ」
「姫様があんなに楽しそうなのです、邪魔してはいけませんよアーミル。煙突から突入するのはお二人がベッドに入ってからです。その時はズオー様も、できるだけお静かにお部屋へお入りくださいませ」
「……」
明日の朝には、きっと枕元に置いた贈り物を見て二人とも目を丸くすることだろう。
厳ついサンタクロース達は頭に雪を積もらせながら、彼女達が眠るのを待ち続けるのだった。Official Lore

Translation by mal as I’m incapable of translating this (Thanks againnnn). Here we go!

And as the present exchange draws to an end, the two turn to their gifts under the silent night.
Romia, as she dons her gift of an adorable hooded blanket, steals a glance at Ilmina.
“Will she like the gloves I made for her with Scarlet?” Thinks Romia.
But as Ilmina’s fluffy tail starts wagging happily, swept too away was Romia’s worry.
“…ehehe. So soft and so fluffy. So warm too! Ilmina-chan!” Romia begins.
“…mhm”
The two continue to revel in their banter below the well ornamented tree.

And peeping at this scene are three merry spirits outside.
“Alas. Looks like they won’t be sleeping any time soon. Well, guess it’s more time to enjoy the cold for us.”
“Our little princess is having such fun! You can’t do to interrupt them, Aamir! We’ll only sneak in through the chimney after they fall asleep. Master Zuoh, you as well, please, try to be as quiet as you can.”
“……”
By tomorrow morning, surely the two little ones will wake in amazement at the presents before their beds.
But for now, our Santa Clauses will have to wear snow until the princesses fall sweetly asleep.

Also artwork!

“Next morning”, art by Romia’s artist – Yoichi Ito.

24 Replies to “Christmas Special Gacha Returns With Great Witch!”

  1. I’m curious as to who the person/angel is next to Gabriel in Christmas Uriel’s artwork. I know Raphael is helping with the tree, and Lucifer is no where to be seen, so maybe it’s Michael with his hair down? But it seems to me Gabriel might be on a date with a female angel seeing as they look very feminine/may be wearing tights with a skirt. What are you’re guy’s thoughts?

    1. Pretty sure that’s Michael, you can just barely see the wings. They’ve always been pretty feminine in a lot of their art, so their casual wear isn’t surprising at all to me.

  2. Well, (as we probably all have thought of) Christmas Saline unfortunately turns out to be just a luxurious farming lead. Green Reeche up next for NY collab?

    1. Reeche is gonna be Valentine’s or Pad academy. I think Valentine’s because there is only 2 chase cards in that REM and people need a reason to roll that REM.

      Gungho has to let Player’s wallets recharge To whale for both Saline and Reeche. There’s so much player hype for the seasonal witches, releasing them too close together would be bad planning.

  3. Why is there so much hate for Saline? The subreddit and JP forums on Pazusoku are just saying how bad she is and talking about Uriel and Michael being so androgynous.

    1. Compared to how useful HMadoo, BZela and BVeroah were in their respective REMs, they (and I as well) were thinking that Saline would have been either meta changing/defining or just had a solid LS with evo Saline awakenings or something along those lines. That’s why they were disappointed to see it was just a semi-decent farming lead, I expect.

  4. Christmas Kali was my first “super rare” card from several years ago and still disappointing every year she doesn’t get some nicer buffs

  5. Will probably trade for Christmas Ilmina (doubt I will ever roll her without robbing a bank first). Those 3 Team HP awakenings are too tempting – oh, and the fluff as well :3

    1. I traded for it (is ilmina a boy or girl we call it, it for now). I used it ALOT when it first came out, including swapping board swaps and stuff. but honestly It’s been awhile since ive used ima call it a her lol

  6. While its a very nice card… i dunno that just doesn’t look like saline to me. I really thought echinda got a buff, or maybe like a minerva look alike or something.

  7. Also it’s kind of strange to see the equip of such a high rarity card to have double skill bound resist. (the red thing) If people are whale enough to get this card, pretty much any high tiered cards have 1 red skill resist thingy. So like, I can’t really think of any situations you’d need two. And there have been cards with two already for awhile. You’d really only use them for ranking or something when you have a jank team that doesn’t have the red awokes.

  8. They shoudl’ve put two increase rewards things. That would probably have the pad whales wanting a wall of them for farming collab purposes 😀

  9. Darn, and that xmas kali buff, guess she will never be ontop of meta for a long long time, or even a really a high powered card. I haven’t seen her on trading list lately either. She started out being on alot of them

  10. Lol Archangel Lucifer left out of the angels’ shopping trip 💔
    It looks like Christmas gacha is the Red Row gacha now – there’s Gremory, Saline, Uriel…

    1. Also whew that Yog buff, now it can actually put out some damage. I hope this change comes to Beach Yog too, and the potential Mega Awoken Yog.

  11. The Xmas story with Romia and Ilmina is cute. It makes me wish for a master Zuoh seasonal varient with a young ilmina or floof in the artwork somewhere.

  12. Will Romia be any good? The downside is no Zela, but the damage is a huge step up from ZKitty and 75% damage reduction is amazing. Seems like one of the better green leads since power rangers/hello kitty

    1. I feel as though she COULD be a good lead– her damage output is really great and fairly reasonable, 3 specific colors and 6+ combos is doable on your typical board.
      The lack of hp or rcv mults means you’re fully reliant on that 75% shield, though, which means that when you CAN’T hit it, you’re going to be in serious danger. Similarly, wood/fire/dark is a weird trio of colors to build a team around, so you’re stuck with fairly specific subs for orb creation… but at least the utility subs are fairly accessible.

      Is it better than ZKitty and her flexibility in damage and bulk? I wouldn’t say that.
      With the right team comp, XMas Romia could be decent with her new evo. It’s just a matter of having access to the right board at all times, which would really just be a matter of having the right subs and packing resistance to poison/jammers. I’m much more fond of XMas Romia as a sub for combo leads and wood/dark teams; she sits very comfortably on Kamimusubi builds, for example. But she does have potential overall!
