"People often say to me 'Waka- your power is so silly, getting stronger in water? That's so lame!' But did you know...apparently humans also get stronger- or at least, benefits from hanging around bodies of water! Whether it's the ocean, a lake, or even listening or looking at water or showering, sooo take some time for yourself to really quench that thirst- post those funny fish memes, drink a glass of the elixir. Come into the water, yes, I don't bite...hehe, maybe then I can get some more power?"

Just released a FNF Legacy cover about myself (and my fictional Venom-like superhuman strength soul figure thingy) against my 2013 YTPMV nightmare fuels, Philip Onbread's TF2 Festive Medic, and TOUHOU PROJECT'S (or ZUN's) CIRNO (i used the fumo plush's head instead LOL).
(Just to be clear, yes, this image is an edited version of that one image of Ifu doing her down pose in the Legacy Ifunny Hell stage, as I only searched "friday night crunchin' legacy background".)
The FNF cover: https://youtu.be/qo8zjzCb5ak?si=w7DKpAfE7NcBye5j
I post or upload the video a day late as it's intended to be in 9:09 PM PST for Cirno Day (⑨) because I actually slept during the video's exporting process in CapCut 😭
Well, better be late than never! (Never do that again as I messed up on that one April Fools video 2 years ago ☠️)
Credits are in the video, and its description!

Muse List:
Super Mario Bros:
Mario
Luigi
Yoshi
Peach
Chompette (Chain Chomp turned princess via the Super Crown:)
Starlette (OC: The cheery creator of the Mario!Verse. Despite her goofy nature and love for randomness, she loves all her creations, equally.)
Apricot (OC: Princess Peach’s younger sister. Mischievous and constantly searching for ways to entertain herself. Tends to skip out on important Royal duties, but loves the kingdom and its people all the same).
Maria (OC: Mario and Luigi’s niece, and the older sister to Louise. She idolizes her uncles and is full of energy, constantly on the search for adventure and is eager to prove herself as someone who can live up to the legacy of the bros.)
Louise (OC: Mario and Luigi’s niece, and the younger sister to Maria. Like her sister, she idolizes her uncles, but is much more reserved and shy when compared to her older sister. She tends to stay behind her sister’s back, but will stand up to help out if the situation demands it.)
Touhou Project:
Little Reimu Hakurei (Osana Reimu)
Minako Hakurei (Reimu’s Mother: Originates from Osana Reimu)
EX Rumia (Osana Reimu)
Youmu Konpaku
Fujiwara No Mokou
Hinanawi Tenshi
Shion Yorigami
Reika Hakurei (OC: The god of the Hakurei, in the Osana Reimu universe. After watching the future events of the family unfold, she granted all three of the protagonists with divine energy to prevent their sad fate from coming to be…which came at the price of her shrinking down to around Suwako’s size, and losing a majority of her energy. She can best be described as a ‘Lazy Neet who stays inside and plays video games all day.’ She does care, trust her. She’s just not good at showing it.)
Sendai Hakurei (OC: The previous Hakurei Shrine maiden, and mother to warriorsofcrimsonrealms’ Reimu. She’s a relatively quiet shrine maiden, who spends most of her time training to improve herself, both mentally and physically. Her devotion training can sometimes lead her to make questionable decisions, like sitting under a waterfall in the winter, but that same devotion is also the reason for her insane physical strength. She has a strong sense of duty, but isn’t too strict, either.)
Cirno
Chikara (OC: An Oni who had trained Sendai, when she was but a mere child. She encountered the soon to be Shrine Maiden when the young girl accidentally tripped and rolled down a hill in the forest, and came across the Oni in the midst of a training session. Seeing potential in the young girl, despite Sendai’s (old) scaredy cat behavior, she put her through a rigorous training routine where the young shrine maiden essentially had to fight for her life and survive in a simulation of a hostile wildlife environment, similar to that of a certain Namekian and Hybrid Saiyan’s training session in a certain manga. Chikara loves the thrill of battle, and can often be seen training in caves across Gensokyo, or visiting Sendai for sparring matches.
Yumi Konpaku (OC from Lost Word): An alternate Youmu who came from a different Gensokyo, one where she acted as the executioner in a land where contestant fought against each other in tournament settings, and she had to punish the losers. Like the regular Youmu, she enjoys gardening. However, there are a few key differences. One, she’s much more powerful due to her having much more time to spend training…but is also a terrible chef due to her time spent training taking away any time she had to learn how to cook. Hobbies aside, her blade glows red due to the blood it’s been stained with over many years, and is cursed due to all the souls it’s taken. Regardless, she’s a friendly soul, who didn’t enjoy what she had to do.)
Sakuya Izayoi
Gurren Lagann:
Simon
Kamina
Nia Teppelin
Simonia (OC: Simon and Nia’s child, who was born after the events of SRWX. She inherited her father’s core drill, his sense of passion and determination, and her mother’s kindness and curiosity. She idolizes her parents, and tries to follow their example as much as possible (except for her mother’s cooking. She did not inherit Simon’s tolerance for it, and got really sick after her first time trying it.)
Sonic The Hedgehog:
Sonic
Cosmo (Sonic X)
Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure:
Jotaro Kujo
Metal Gear:
Raiden (Revengeance)
Shiro (OC: A used to be child soldier who was experimented on as a weapon in the past, before breaking out in a failed test. She was found by Raiden in a warehouse, with a knife in hand, before being adopted into his household. Her memories of her life before the experiments don’t exist for her, no matter how much she tries to dig them up. She’s quiet, but deeply appreciates Raiden for his help, and consistently refers to him as ‘sensei.’ She wields her own personal HF Blade, and trains daily to mimic his combat style. Her favorite food is cereal, which she would have for breakfast lunch and dinner if left unattended, and has a bad habit of spending money on model Gundam figures, recklessly.
Fate:
Cu Chulainn
Elizabeth Bathory
Baobhan Sith
Kirin (OC: Quite possibly the world’s greatest girlfail, with more bags under her eyes than a group of people after a long shopping trip. She’s a middle school dropout who spent the next six years working job to job in run down areas, while barely getting any sleep and playing games 24/7. Once she turned 20, she suddenly got an invitation to work as a master for Chaldea. She initially deemed it a scam, but figured she may as well check it out, since anything was better than working at a bar with ungrateful customers. Soon enough, she found herself fighting in a war to save the world…which she finds completely insane, but kinda fun. The whole ‘threat of death’ thing is annoying, in her opinion, but she figured she could get over it. Personality wise, she can come off as unfriendly and anti-social with a large streak of trouble following her everywhere, but she CAN be nice in some instances… She is not shy about showing when she doesn’t like something to someone, though.
Kiran (OC: Kirin’s older twin, with just as many bags under her eyes, and worked just as many run down jobs before travelling with his sister to Chaldea to work as a master. He’s somewhat more responsible than Kirin, acting as her impulse control to a degree, but for the most part, he tends to behave very similarly to her and the two often finish each other’s sentences. )

Malu (OC: Alola’s champion, who spends most of time relaxing and eating Malasadas with his Pokémon. Being someone who strives to find the most comfortable way to live, Malu can often be seen lazing about, wherever. Whether it be on the beach, in a tree, or one of the chairs in a Malasada store, him, napping, is a common sight across Alola. Regardless of his seemingly lazy nature, his skills as a trainer are nothing to take lightly.
Haruka (OC: A trainer from Johto who moved to Alola to take on the Island Trials and become champion. She’s hard working and determined to prove herself. Her efforts proved valiant…up until she got up to the current champion, Malu. She currently has lost to him a total of 87 times thus far, with no victory of her own, yet. Still, she eagerly challenges him whenever he comes by… She finds his presence somewhat irritating though, due to his seemingly lazy nature clashing with his insane combat skills.

Blorbro (OC: A time patroller Majin who travelled the world with an Outer Experiment of a girl named Saika, before being recruited into the Time Patrol. He brands super-hero like clothing, and idolized super heros, pro wrestlers, and the champ, himself, Hercule. He’s very laid back and prone to making jokes, but is also the most powerful amongst his group of three.)
Celera (OC: A time patroller Saiyan who worked as a scholar in Universe 6, before being recruited into the Time Patrol. She’s hard working and studious, often trying to find way to make the best of any situation in a logical manner…which makes her a bit irritable due to being surrounded by teammates who rely on anything but logic. Regardless, they’re her friends, and she does her best to keep the world a better place… Also, her natural hair and eye color is black, but gained white hair through a mishap with magic paint, and gold eyes due to a mishap with a spell in school. Both, of which, never got undone or fixed.)
Nio (OC: A time patroller elf who lived in secrecy and practiced dark magic, before being recruited into the Time Patrol. Despite her work in the dark arts, though, Nio is an energetic and extremely friendly soul, who wishes to prove to the world that even magic of this nature can be used to help others. She’s incredibly social…but tends to miss social queues due to having lived along for so long.)
Kohlri (OC: Broly’s mother, who had abandoned Planet Vegeta in a fit after having heard news of Paragus and her son being sent away to a far away, abandoned planet. Due to her space pod malfunctioning during the trip, she made a crash landing onto earth, and had since been living there while adapting to Earth’s culture, in the meantime. Many years later, after the events of the battle between Broly and Gogeta, the former one day found himself meeting with his mother in the midst of a random shopping trip with Cheelai and Lemo. It didn’t take Kohlri too long to recognize due to both his scent, and tail. This resulted in a very tear reunion on her end, as Kohlri soon found herself walking into her son’s life, once again… Compared to her husband, she’s incredibly cheerful and outgoing, with great social skills…and an apparent lack of impulse control, given her purchase history. She’s also, however, who Broly inherited his rage boosted power ups from, given she goes into similar berserker states when powering up, without focus.

Fandomless OCs:
Akira (OC: A super laid back 27 year old woman who works at a small gas station in THE TOWN called Akira’s. She’s a friendly soul treats her employees and friends like family, and gives out EXTREMELY large paychecks, despite her only customers being the people from Mario’s apartment. There are rumors that she used to be a fortune goddess who reincarnated as a human, but she has yet to confirm anything…to the public, at least.)
Kiki (OC: A 19 year old ex-magical girl who was fired from being ‘too old to continue working.’ A fact that she found incredibly bizarre and annoying, but she couldn’t really do anything about it as she just suddenly woke up one day, with a ‘Fired’ letter next to her bed, and no powers. Having been launched back into a normal life so suddenly, after five years of dutiful work, she felt lost, until she moved to THE TOWN with her parents, and was hired by Akira. With such a large paycheck, and friendly co-workers around her, she was able to settle back into a normal life… The craziness of THE TOWN does make her life even more bizarre than it used to be, sometimes, though.
Ella (OC: The hired maid of Akira’s…who had no experience in anything regarding Maid work, beforehand. She signed up for the job due to the reviews of the place being friendly…and the paychecks being great. Most of her maid knowledge comes from anime that she watched, so she’s lacking in practical experience, and is plenty clumsy. Regardless, she enjoys her time at the gas station, and her fellow employees enjoys her presence, as well.
August (OC: A member of the Lethal Company, who recently moved to THE TOWN after being given a ten year vacation by the company for surviving ten years of work. She’s skittish, nervous, and very shy, which would be expected after having survived watching most of her co-workers die at the hands of supernatural beings and harsh environmental hazards. While she is happy to be in a ‘somewhat’ less dangerous environment, she does wish that she never took up the job opportunity to be a space excavator, and stool to working at Dairy Queen.)
Nis (OC: The young princess of the underworld, who rules over all its inhabitants with…a surprisingly lazy and gentle hand. Nis is someone who can best be described as a tired and calm soul, almost always being seen in her pajamas, and resting whenever possible. She’s spoiled rotten by her father, yet never acts entitled. Her favorite hobby is playing video games with her minions and friends…and playing with the magical girls in THE TOWN, who initially viewed her as a threat, but came to view her as a friend after realizing her work was mandatory, and that’d she’d surrender the very moment they showed up to fight her every time.)
Azure (OC: A void dragon appointed by the Underworld’s king to punish souls deemed unfit for the worst of the Underworld. Due to the souls being sent there being very rare and barren, void dragons often spend their time in human form lazing about and playing games in a mansion they made in the void, or the outside world. Azure, himself, isn’t much different. Often spending more time outside the void, than inside. He’s a laid back soul who enjoys playing pranks, and hanging with Rose and Nis, and his sister, Azul. He has a pet stone that he aptly named ‘Stone’, who is completely sentient and talks back, but to only him.
Azul (OC: A void dragon appointed by the Underworld’s king to punish souls deemed unfit for the worst of the Underworld. She’s Azure’s younger sister, and tends to stick by his side, for the most part. She shares his same sense of mischief, but is a little more energetic about it, being more eager to get involved, instead of waiting for the chance to come to her. Like her brother, she spends a good chunk of her time playing games with Rose and Nis.)
Rose (OC: An underworld devil and Rose’s right hand-man. She used to be a human, before suffering an untimely death at the hands of those she once considered friends. Unable to move on, who soul rested in a forest, before being recruited as an underworld soldier by the reaper. She now works at Nis’ side as a dutiful soldier…even if the monarch’s lazy tendencies tend to stress her out, a bit. Because of her being somewhat easily ticked off, Azure and Azul tend to playfully tease her a lot. This, of course, annoys her, but it never goes far.)
Violet (OC: A laid back swordswoman who left a town run by a corrupt kingdom to explore the world at her leisure, having been inspired by her friends at her childhood orphanage to find a better life. She explored the land with a sword in hand, and a carefree nature. When she’s not busy practicing swordplay, she’s finding quick jobs to make cash, so long as it adheres to her sense of morality, or crashing at places with anyone she’s found to be a friend, along the way.)
Mika (OC: A young magical girl who came from a ruined timeline where she was tricked by her magical girl contractors, the Miracle Mirans, into destroying all life on earth with illusionary techniques, making her think she was stopping monsters and saving the world, where instead, she was destroying everything on it. Horrified, she escaped into a different timeline where no such things had occurred, and managed to somehow settle back into a normal life…or so she’d wished. She still experienced horrific nightmares of her crimes, which makes sleeping for her incredibly difficult. Regardless, thanks to her having found a new group of magical girls to keep her steady, as her new friends, she’s finding it just a tiny bit easier to live a peaceful life, once again, in THE TOWN.
Haru (OC: A young magical girl who idolizes Shonen Manga and anime, such as Dragon Ball and Gurren Lagann. She fights crime with a fiery passion and will, while sometimes vastly overestimating how much will alone can do… It worked in Gurren Lagann, though! Her confidence aside, she was the first of the Magical Girls to meet up with Mika, and eagerly wished for her to be her teammate, until the two fought their first enemy together. After that, Mika relented and agreed to be in a team with Haru, in which the two celebrated with Karaoke, courtesy of Haru almost literally dragging her there. She’s aware of Mika’s past, but doesn’t bring it up to avoid making her uncomfortable, and defends her with all her heart and might.)
Lucky (OC: A young magical girl who became one of the world’s most rich individuals, as a result of her family being blessed with divine luck, and winning multiple lotteries over the course of their lives. She’s a friendly soul who became quick friends with Mika and Haru after become acquainted in school, and conveniently meeting up in the same place to fight a monster, when one showed up. Despite her immense funds, she never uses them as a way to make herself look better than others. Instead, she always uses her funds to try and help them/make their lives easier on them.)
Naomi (OC: A young magical girl who works as a part time shrine maiden. She’s incredibly serious when it comes to her work, both in magical girl duties, and out. She encountered the group of three magical girls in the middle of a losing battle, and jumped in to help. After a narrow victory, the group of three spent the next five weeks along her to join their group, in which she eventually relented after being saved by the three in a losing battle of her own. Due to her being the most serious of the bunch, she tends to butt heads with Haru, due to the other’s much more idealistic and joking nature… Regardless, she appreciates the company of all three, equally.)
Iamaslime (OC: The mayor of THE TOWN, who is a slime. He looks similar to that of the slimes in the world of Dragon Quest, and is incredibly lax with the rules of THE TOWN… Or in reality, lack thereof. There’s no actual rules, which explains why randomness and chaos is so apparent in this town. All forms of ‘authority’ are self-governed independent projects and have nothing to do with him.’)
Iamaslimetoo (OC: The mayor’s daughter, who looks similar to that of a slime girl from a certain half genie’s series. Like her father, she’s incredibly lax with the lack of rules in THE TOWN, and spends all her time relaxing, or hanging out at parties with her dad.)
John Gmod (OC: One of the two bodyguards for the mayor and his daughter, and the one with an actual sense of common sense. He’s consistently caught up in his partner’s shenanigans, and always ends up taking half the blame for the other’s nonsense, even if he had nothing to do with it. He wants to retire and move to Fiji, but with his current inability to hold onto funds, that dream seems like nothing more than a dream.)
John Dark Souls (OC: One of the two bodyguards for the mayor and his daughter, and the one who lack any sense of common sense. He’s consistently stirring up trouble, whether it be to him actively coming up with get rich quick schemes, attempting to show off in lame ways to get a date, like riding around THE TOWN in a tank, or just starting fights whenever it’s least beneficial for everyone. His dream is to have a harem and live as king of the world, but that dream is DEFINITELY just a dream.)

I play a lot of Slay the Spire. Like, a lot a lot. I like this kind of game in general. Played a bunch of Monster Train too. Recently I found Astrea - Six-Sided Oracles and Lost Branch of Legend. Astrea revolves around dice, so it's a bit different, but the structure and sensibilities are the same, while LBoL feels like a very high effort StS mod.
They're both good games, but ultimately I "went back" to StS, in that when I think of playing either, I just play that game instead.
Long post.
With Astrea the reason is easy: It's dice. Dice are fine, but I like cards. Astrea also tends to kinda feel samey and I don't really like playing half of the characters. With StS I like playing all four of the characters.
But why is it that I'm not that into LBoL? It's Touhou, it's really pretty, it's StS - I should like this.
I even really like the main thing differentiating this game from StS: The mana system. In short, it has MtG style mana, which allows for card costs to be a lot more granular than 0, 1, 2, 3 (4+) and makes for interesting balancing. This is that game's strongest point.
But similar to Astrea, when I start up the game I find myself struggling to pick a character to play, not because I like all of them, but because I don't. Reimu is boring and cumbersome, Sakuya is always "My hand is full" (Which just feels bad. I should have to work to see this happening, but with Sakuya it's just the default state of being), Cirno is clunky and just has the most awful time at the start of the game and then there's Marisa.
My eternal saviour, Marisa. She's the only fun character - and only half of her, truly. One half of hers is reminiscent of a Marisa character mod for StS where you build "Charge" with certain cards and when it reaches a threshold you go into Powered Up mode where you do more damage for the rest of the turn. It's a very ebb and flow kinda gameplay and once you've built your deck enough to get it going does feel nice.
Her other half is potions. You use cards that shuffle potions into your deck that when drawn hit a random enemy for decent damage, create 1 all-colour mana and draw a card. You have to put in an up-front investment with all these potion cards to then get an explosive turn or two later. It feels really nice when you've stacked your deck with potions, helped it out with some scrying to then watch them all go. This is the most enjoyable character in the game. I do also enjoy playing Sakuya, because she has some similar combos going but unlike Marisa, her knives that are similar to those potions, stick in your hand, leading to "My hand is full".
But if it was just that, so what. I can still get a fun run out of Reimu or Cirno as well, it'd be fine.
No, what bothers me is that two of three Act 3 bosses suck ass and the True Ending boss also sucks ass most of the time in just the least fun ways.
The Act 3 bosses are Sanae, who emulates The Awoken by gaining power from you playing this game's Power analogues, Remilia who is just Time Eater (which is the only bad part of StS. If you want to make an StS-like game DO NOT PUT TIME EATER INTO IT) and Junko, who turns your coloured mana into colourless mana.
Sanae is fine. She just hits you, heals herself a bit, drains your Strength and Dex and gets stronger if you play a certain card type. All of this is just fine.
Junko can just suck so much. Obviously you need coloured mana, but some decks can handle having less of it. Some decks aren't even affected by her trait at all, because she can't uncolour all-colour mana. That stuff's just immune, so if your deck happens to produce a lot of that, you're good. (Potion Marisa does this)
Remilia is Time Eater. This is especially egregious because there is another boss in Act 1 who punishes you for playing too many cards and that is Sakuya: She just punches you in the face every so often but that's it. You can implement a punishment mechanic for spammy decks, you don't have to forcefully end my turn! Just drop my stats, deal damage, force a discard or two or drain some of my mana there are so many ways to go about it that aren't "Oh let's just make Time Eater again." Everybody hates Time Eater!
And then there's Seija, as the True Final Boss. She comes in with the classic The Heart trait of only taking up to 300 damage per turn, this is fine. It's boring, but it's fine. I get it, you don't want her to get FTK'd as well as hitting you for 1 damage for each card played (another fine way of punishing spammy decks). Aside from that, she also gets several effects based on artifacts she picks at random. I will only go over the three that she can pick from for her first one, because the problematic one is right there:
Teapot with Long Spout: Suffer either 3 Weak, Frail or Vulnerable each turn. This is fine. Get some debuffs, sure.
Pendant that emits evil spirits: Seija summons some trash mobs every turn. This is fine. You should be able to handle small stuff by now.
Overdecorated Gold Cup: Lose all non-Shining, non-Mythic Rare exhibits.
Exhibits are Relics. Shining Exhibits govern your mana base. You start with one based on your character and get another after each boss. Mythic Rare Exhibits are a special type that you can start with in a special help-mode. You don't get these in normal gameplay.
So this just sucks. It's not fun. Even if your deck doesn't rely on your relics, it's just dumb. Having relics is fun but now you don't get to play with them anymore. And what if you do rely on them? What if you got the Shuriken-analogue at the start of the run and built your entire deck around it? Now you're stuck throwing rubber knives at Seija. Countless other such cases. This would be fine on like an Act 2 boss.
With the Act 3 boss, you do get some advance notice either way by virtue of having the entire third act to "prepare" for it, but if it's Remi and you're already a combo deck you're not getting off that. You can reasonably pick up some cards that are less heavy on coloured mana or that produce all-colour mana to help with Junko though.
with Seija you only know what she picks when she picks it.
There is a random event where you can get info on which Act 3 boss you'll fight or what Seija's first item will be. You can pick either or, but you also have to get the event in the first place.
But even if you pick to scout Seija and learn that she gets the Cup, what are you going to do about it? Not grab relics anymore? You can probably handle it, but you know it won't be an enjoyable fight.
The way to open the path to Seija's fight isn't even difficult. You just have to pick the correct option at three certain nodes that you're forced to pass through anyway, but I never want to do it because there's a 1 in 3 chance that the fight is going to be unfun.
There are other annoying encounters too, such as the two lunar rabbits who are "regular enemies" and will just end your run if you have no multi-hit attacks, but all that is fine. I'll slug through a sucky Act 1 boss, who gives a shit it's Act 1. What I don't like is how there's always a good chance for the final boss to not be fun.
