At least Maru-yu is going into battle with a weapon, unlike in the game where she has not a single equipment from the start. I rather she throw pebbles at the enemies from a distance than try to get in close and punch them. If she gets eaten, MP will be on our asses.
In picture only. Actual gamewise she is unable to equip weapons from the start and 1 equipment slot at Kai.
Although, I think she can still torpedo...not really sure since I never threw her into battle before since that just seems cruel to the little cutie. I don't have the heart to scrap or feed her to my other girls nor do I have use for her since she can't fight so I just have an entire page of Maru-yus, sitting there doing nothing. Damn the artist, for making her so cute.
A brand-spanking new Lv. 1 Maruyu can participate in the closing torpedo salvo, I just tried it. Sure, she's going to do jack-all for damage, but so's that pistol.
That rarely goes well, but it's cute to see her try.
All right, let's do this!Y-Yeah...Eh? Wai!?You can't go!!Maru-yu sure can dive well, right?Maru-yu setting sailOkay! This time, Maru-yu will go and cruise Orel!!Ah-hem!Idea: Yuuji
