Kilika's speech about Arc en Ciel is so good I'm here wondering if she actually works as an entertainment producer besides just using it as a decoy

Kilika is also way more human when she gets a voice actor. And when she's talking about art instead of just being an efficient drone. I love this character

cool quote about how a professional works, too. From the most professional character in the whole series.

Lechter just goes and admits he works for Hitler when first asked. Huh.

That's not a uh... conventional way to do spy work. Though he doesn't outright admit he is a spy. Well that's our "hidden genius" character for ya. He will be completely useless for the entire game then we'll learn he fulfilled his mission by the time the story ends.

Then he pretends he's about to kill them all and the entire party falls for it

that would be troublesome (he totally knows doesn't he)

And he adds the part of working for Hitler as part of the joke, and now the characters don't believe it anymore. Sharp.

yeah ok Lechter gains a few points for me. Dude is Campanella levels of clever. I mean, Lloyd saw through Renne, but he couldn't see through Lechter.

my favorite meme is random npcs realizing Kilika is a spy but having no power to do anything about it

Tio's reaction at seeing the theme park is priceless

we scout the place where the auction is going to be held, and find the mafia preparing the security. heh

suddenly Lloyd hears a voice. "Find me"

I think that was in the game's intro? The plot develops

I do a quest for finding some guy's lost engagement ring. Standard stuff, except a bunch of people happened to drop rings all over the place in the same day, so I spend the time bringing wrong rings over and over. creative.

We fail to get a hotel room we can use to make plans (why don't we just go to some corner of the dock or something). Then Wazy shows up and offers his room. You know, the local delinquent. Offers his room in the mega luxurious hotel.

nice sequence with Wazy entering his room and the hotel maid fangirling

Wow ok, the guy is a host. Did not expect that

Who does it "for free". Wait, thats not a job, thats just picking up girls

I have to pick one person to go with Lloyd to the auction. I pick Elie, because I've already read on the game's friendship system and the fact it's connected with shipping. And I'm totally shipping those two at this point.

Plus let's be serious, it makes more sense story wise for Elie to be at the high class auction than soldier dude or tech girl

Yeah ok the pick is already paying dividends. She looks hot

Lloyd and Elie manage to fool the guards by just by so soapy the guards get annoyed and let them pass

man, I feel like there is so much different dilogue you could get by picking Randy or Tio here that i'm just not seeing. This game goes the extra mile.

ngl, this section is fun, but it's the most plotless one in the game so far. They wanna go into the auction to "see crossbell's darkness". Like, it's obvious this is going to turn out to be important, but the initial excuse to come here is kind of forced

mafia grunt: "Rest assured, the securiry has everything under control"
undercover cops: "keep up with the good work, dude!"

We meet Kilika (again), who makes an info dump about hos this auction is one huge money laundry for elites from both Erebonia and Calvard

ofc, considering who she works for, I'm wondering what she came to launder. Or what launder she came to check on

She implies she is rooting for us to tear this whole place apart. Maybe. You're never sure with Kilika

Having her not be on the player's faction is kind of a refreshing experience, because until now, Kilika was a good guy by default, and now I'm not sure. In that sense, she is a reverse Lechter (who works for the big bad, but has all sorts of hints of anti-villainy going for him)

Lechter shows up out of nowhere and starts FISHING in the mansion pond

The Fisherman Guild... it seems their claws have reached even Erebonian intelligence

Lloyd hears the voice again, near the room where the goods are. They are selling people in this auction? Figures.

next, we walk into Hypocrisy: The Scene. With a couple finding out they are cheating one another at the same time

Next we jump into lechter feeding the mansion owner's fish (which he just stole) to the mansion owner's cat. lol

Garcia: "I have a feeling someone besides Heiyue is messing with us"
NOPE. It's just in your head. Move along.

Lloyd's disguise of Guy almost fails because Garcia might lowkey be the one who killed him. But then the daughter of the richest man in the series shows up to bail them

Auction time

Uh why does Imelda have a target on the back of her head? Oh wait it's a hair net.

Wazy shows up and reveals there are a bunch of guard dogs sleeping outside

The other mafia is attacking, apparently

Yup, there's Yin

Hey Yin we can't see the darkness of Crossbell if you wipe it out by yourself

Yin jumps out of the window. No Yin, stay and join our party danmit!

the game lets me rest on the sofas in this room to recover HP. While it's some nice QoL, I find it hilarious those characters would stop to nap on a sofa while breaking into the secret safe of the freaking mafia

The object we are looking for is inside a trunk right in the center of the room, without any other objects touching it. obviously

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the girl from the opening
