    We all got our preferences! That's all fine.

    I'm merely pointing out that this direction IMO isn't something new or surprising and I'm a bit surprised that there are people who hoped that would change. Our style has been super flashy and impractical from the start (Reverse grip? Really?... nevermind, you're not even stabbing), stealth has never been more than a gimmick for class quests. At level 35, we already threw fireballs and lightning around, the 50s quest was a veritable display of fireworks and then we went as far as to make a point out of being noisy and flashy with Raiton to draw attention towards us. Our limit break are shiny moonlight blades.

    I simply don't quite understand where the notion that ninja was ever stealthy comes from. To me, Stormblood just keeps going down the same road we've been on all this time in that regard. To me, the real question is: Why do we keep getting these black stealth suits for AF gear? A gaudy Geisha outfit would be more fitting (and probably more historically correct, considering ninjas typically wore civilian clothes or disguises)!

    Have you seen the character animation for LB3 from up close?
    We look like a power-ranger doing their finisher.

    If we could change gear (or glamour) mid fight, I would totally do it, with a macro and all.

    The trick would be getting the song from Fairy Fencer F to override the current BGM.
