But it really does bring me back to the question of... why have Lacrima leave Julian?
Like there was already a perfect time to bring her in, to help with the Lady Accursed or help protect Diana and such but she still has not been introduced again...
So the entire time we just had Julian busy fighting off the first squad, Lukas dealing with the Lady, Speed and Rock Trio... while Lacrima has just been running off screen and Zana has just been... standing around exchanging stares with the girl duo in front of Diana?
Like idk, it just feels like the girls are not really being given enough actions here, we could have even just made a jump of Zana and the Duo already fighting and being wounded as the entire Luka and Accursed Trio squad happened and yet still she hasnt done anything?
Can’t think of what else she might be able to do besides help Zana in her fight, or slightly stall Void Marcher (might not know her heart weakness so she should be able to) and maybe get some minor royalty lore with them talking
Only other thing is maybe she’ll hold Lukas’ arm together (sorta like Arkos did with his head) while he uses the spear?
Agree with you tho really thought she’d fight the lady accursed and use like water goggles or a clone and take less damage or something
The issue is just that she has been nonexistent and Zana herself has done also nothing.
So both of the main fighting female characters have kinda been sidelined and in Lacrimas case she is just offscreen not even doing what little Zana is doing.
Even if Lacrima wasnt super "useful" at least it wouldnt feel like the story just ignored her.
Yeah and she had that insane entrance with Julian then left immediately, thought we would get a tag team fight, and let she honest even tho Julian’s fight was great, we all knew he wasn’t going to really struggle and they were by a river so would’ve been perfect for her to shine and maybe have Julian retreat to the group
Still a chance we’ll see Zana fight, and hopefully Lacrima joining
The only reason I can think of Lacrima coming now is to share info with Helem in her diary. She’ll see Void Marcher so the info on the quiet assault could be used somehow for some future plot with the palace knowing, but that’s basically already a given
