The story definitely feels takked on a little bit. The story isn’t really interesting until half way through and even then it was just ok. I will say that the “final fight” was intense I’m also not a fan of the Hippie… at all. Just a purely annoying character for the sake of having one I suppose. I guess my favorite parts were the last fight, discovering poisons as a water mage, and having the wants crafted. Speaking of the wants there was a moment when Eliza was planning on using a staff for her mist/poison combo. she asks the guy to make it and he says he will see what he can do. at this point she has no clue he is going to make her wands instead, but she stats talking about “oh, I have to go pick up my wands” and “once I get my wands I can tackle this problem”. then when she gets to the shop she is surprised the guy made her wands. I believe she was just a small issue but it stuck out.
Stifel is bland as always but at least he isn’t mixing up what MC sounds like what because Eliza is the only one present.
