Why are people surprised that the new precure movie isn't crossing over seasons that have a similar theme to Kimi to Idol Precure?? That has literally never been a factor in the choice of which past teams make an appearance...

#0-#21 Card Series Garments predictions

This series of garments is linked to the collector's Jukebox, so I'm assuming all the characters chosen for this series are either 5 or 6 stars. Obviously this series will probably feature characters that have yet to be introduced too, so maybe I'll update this list at some points.

I'm not a tarot expert, nor have I played this game for very long so I fully welcome other opinions!

#0: The fool: Matilda

This is the card of new beginnings and idealism, and also being a little foolish. Seems to suit Matilda well, as one of our youngest amongst the main cast.

Diggers and Regulus are also options.

#1: The Magician : Melania (2.6)

#2: The High Priestess: Druvis III (2.5)

#3: The Empress: Tooth Fairy

A card about "motherhood" and nature. I chose Tooth Fairy because she's the most obvious"mom type" but the card could also fit Vila or Fatutu.

#4: The Emperor: A Knight

I'm not super sure about this one, it's a card about fatherhood and authority and I can't really think of a character that fits the "patriarch" archetype in this game. Maybe M. Duncan if they fully lean on the father figure vibe?

#5: The Hierophant: 6

Faith and enlightenment, education and knowledge. Pretty self-explanatory for 6. He already has two garments but he's pretty popular so I wouldn't be surprised to see more.

Pickles would also be a good choice.

#6: The Lovers : Jessica (2.8)

Great choice can't believe I didn't think of it.

Complicated choice in a game like reverse 1999 that relies on subtext rather than outright pairing. I'm assuming they'll lean in the platonic/complementary angle so I'm expecting Kanjira&Punji, hissabeth and her siblings or maybe Aleph?

(in a just world it would be Vertin and Schneider but Alas...)

#7: The Chariot: Lucy

It's a card about success, ambition and determination, a great match for progress incarnate, although as a limited character she's pretty much guaranteed to only have Unique garments, so no guarantee it will fit in this series.

#8: Strength : Ezra

Inner strength and compassion, could fit many characters, I like Ezra for it. Willow could be a cool option too.

#9: The Hermit : Shamane

A card about contemplation, solitude and inner strength Shamane seems like a pretty obvious choice. I would argue that Click could also work in the detached observer way, and Enigma would also fit the slightly more negative aspects of the card (I'm fully convinced he'll be playable sooner rather than later).

#10: The Wheel of Fortune : Kaalaa Baunaa

About fate, cycles and change. Could fits any of our diviners tbh, or maybe Centurion with her connection with luck?

#11: Justice : Dikke

Who else?

#12 : Then Hanged Man : Kakania

A card about martyrdom and self sacrifice, it would fit Kakania who chose to brave the storm for a chance of saving others.

Edit: as of 3.0 could also be a great fit for Sentinel, for what I've seen of her storyline.

#13: Death: Semmelweis

Death in Tarot means change and the end of a cycle for another. Fits Semmelweis story well in my opinion. They could also go with a more literal choice with Necrologist or a ghost character.

Edit: as if 3.0 we have an obvious choice for death too...

#14: Temperance : Blonney

The card of the middle path between the extremes.

Really not sure about this one... I went with Blonney because her character's arc is about embracing both her arcanist passions and the human lifestyle.

#15: The Devil: Anjo Nala

Beside the obvious that as a succubus she's a type of devil, the Devil card card can mean materialism and playfulness which works for her, although same as Lucy's she's restricted to Unique garments.

#16: The Tower: Isolde

Usually seen as the most negative of the major arcana, it's the card of upheaval and disasters.

Could also fit Lopera and Sophia if/when she becomes playable.

#17: The Star : Voyager (2.6)

#18: The Moon: Mercuria Bella (Semmelweis)(3.0)

A pretty obvious choice given the amount of moon symbolism the use for Semmelweis, though I still argue that Death would have been more interesting, meaning of the cards wise (well we do have a more obvious choice for Death as of 3.0 though...)

About illusions and intuition, a good fit for Mercuria.

They might give it to Sonetto because of her iconic quote from Amy Lowell's London Thoroughfare, 2 am; but as the designated "tutorial" character her garments have been free until now.

#19: The Sun: Regulus

Positivity and celebration, seems like it would fit the ever hopeful Regulus.

#20: Judgement : 37

Self awareness and revelation, would work well with 37. She has a couple of garments already but as one of the more popular characters we can certainly expect more.

Pickles would also be a great choice.

#21: The World: Barcarola Ulrich (2.8)

Wouldn't have been my first choice but it's a beautiful garment and I love Ulrich so I'm happy with it.

Barcarolla and her musical collection would be a good fit, even if I would love for it to be Vertin and her suitcase but since she doesn't get garments someone else will have to do.

I think one of my favorite reoccurring moments throughout Dimension 20 is when Brennan, outwardly showing the pride he has for his friends’ cleverness and insight, says, “No roll necessary.”

[doizy]

Cloudward Ho! Seems to have Daggerheart like collective world building mechanics, with Brennan prompting the player to imagine what Zood is like, and I can't wait to see more of it!

swings a pocket watch in front of you. oohhh you want to learn about afflatus. you want to understand the ecological cycle between them explained in the early stages of the game and the themes they represent. mineral and plant referring to community and groups vs beast and star referring to isolation and the individual. ohhhh you want to look into them. you want to understand the differences between how mineral refers to the solid systems and traditions and unmovable concepts that rule this world, manmade or not vs how plant refers to the everchanging adapting systems found in nature that inherently belong in this world

ohhhh yes you want to understand that the beast afflatus refers to the underdog's fight against an environment that doesnt allow space for them vs the star afflatus isolation of being singled out due to a trait or talent that sets you apart from your environment. hence why beast is weak against mineral (its an individual at disadvantage vs an entire system that works against them) and why mineral is weak against star (its the established rules and traditions vs the trailblazing genius that can topple societies. and why star is weak against plant (its the revolutionary against the rules of nature that states everything must change, you are not special for causing change) and why plant is weak against beast (its the harmony of a community being destroyed from inside by an individual seeking something for themselves)

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh you want to study in-game details and analyze them to see the full picture of a character you want to understand that dikke is not a cruel judge because her incantations are attack and heal and they both have flavor text that differentiates between justice for those who need it and the abuse of power. because shes not heartless nor strictly cold, shes attempting to make a difference from inside a corrupt system.

ohhhhh you want to understand that pavia is not a broken person who is touchstarved for community because he has made himself his own community as seen with his incantations and gamemode that highlights he's much happier doing whatever the fuck he wants on his own without restraint. ohhhhhhh you want to understand the reason 37 and regulus butt heads so much is because they're two sides of the star afflatus experience, but both of them are equally as smart and equally as valid as geniuses in their own righ

o hhhhhhhhh you want to understand that afflatus refers to the experiences someone goes through and explains why they are like this as people, hence why life changing explanations can change your afflatus and this is why kakania was INTELLECT in 1.7 but she became PLANT in 1.9 in the main story oooooooooooooooooo

I think the Anecdotes might be one of my favorite part of Reverse 1999. I love short stories especially little character studies, and I love how they expand on the world themes of the stories...

What character do you hope will get an Anecdote next?

I'm hoping for Tennant, and Bunny Bunny because I like the story part of their profile. I'd love to see one on ApplE if only because I'm curious about how he ended up with Regulus. I would also love one about Medicine Pocket!
