Yamamoto Gorozaemon 🪶

NYC welcomes SHIROKURO located 103 2nd ave., Ny,Ny 10003

Since reposition (and shielding) is quite useful for this kind of raid, that's enough excuse for me to bring my wife Tracksuit Yuuka to every color of this Grand Assault. Now for discussion on how each color went:

Red

Hare (Camp) (borrowed): Level 90, 4*, Skills M/M/7/8, Gears ?/?/?

Yuuka (Track): Level 90, 5* UE40, Skills M/7/7/1, Gears 9/9/8

Hina (Dress): Level 90, 5* UE40, Skills M/7/7/7, Gears 9/9/9

Hoshino (Swimsuit): Level 90, 5* UE30, Skills M/7/M/M, Gears 9/9/9

Ako: Level 90, 3*, Skills M/M/7/M, Gears 6/7/8

Shiroko (Swimsuit): Level 90, 3*, Skiis 4/7/7/M, Gears 8/9/8

If I ran a "proper" speedrun team, I would have replaced Tracksuit Yuuka with Shun, which I do have. But this is ShiroKuro and I want to bring Yuuka my wife goddammit! And so we have this team, with mediocre final score. Figures that I can get higher one if I upgrade Dress Hina and Swimsuit Shiroko's skills, but I still want to save on those Phaistos Disks.

Yellow

Maki: Level 90, 5* UE50, Skills M/M/M/7, Gears 9/9/9

Yuuka (Track): Level 90, 5* UE40, Skills M/7/7/1, Gears 9/9/8

Akane: Level 88, 5* UE50, Skills M/1/1/1, Gears 9/9/1

Mika (borrowed): Level 90, 5* UE50, Skills M/M/M/M, Gears ?/?/?

Fuuka (New Year): Level 87, 3*, Skills M/4/4/M, Gears 3/3/7

Himari: Level 90, 3*, Skills M/1/1/M, Gears 5/5/1

I swear this is not a Binah team.

I have neither Mika, Ui, nor Swimsuit Ui, so this is the best-scoring team I could find. Turns out Shiro & Kuro has 700 DEF (reducing damage taken by nearly 30%), so bringing in Maki and Akane reduces their DEF to 192.5, decreasing the damage reduction to only around 10%. This extra 20% damage taken is pretty significant for getting extra score. In practice however, apart from timing Mika's EX so that it hits when both DEF debuffs are active, I also have to reset a lot for Mika's damage stability.

Theoretically, I could beat torment with body-throwing this time, but I'd rather save my materials investment for the coming fest students: Armed Hoshino, Shiroko Terror, and Mika.

Once again, I swear this is not a Binah team.

Purple

Chinatsu (Hot Spring): Level 80, 3*, Skills M/M/1/1, Gears 9/9/9

Yuuka (Track): Level 90, 5* UE40, Skills M/7/7/1, Gears 9/9/8

Maki: Level 90, 5* UE50, Skills M/M/M/7, Gears 9/9/9

Momoi (Maid) (borrowed): Level 90, 5* UE40, Skills M/M/M/M, Gears ?/?/?

Ako: Level 90, 3*, Skills M/M/7/M, Gears 6/7/8

Himari: Level 90, 3*, Skills M/1/1/M, Gears 5/5/1

I HATE SHIRO BOMB MALD I HATE SHIRO BOMB MALD I HATE SHIRO BOMB MALD I HATE SHIRO BOMB MALD I HATE SHIRO BOMB MALD I FUCKING SWEAR IF THAT DAMN RAT FUCK UP MY STUDENT'S FORMATION AGAIN—

We're experiencing technical difficulties, please stand by...

Rant aside, that was basically how my raid went on this color. The Shiro part of this raid was a total maldfest, with the randomly-placed bomb completely ruining your run if you're unlucky by giving the students MSPD debuff and then having Shiro's Big Balls™ thrown at them (which means instant retreat for them). Once you beat Shiro and move to Kuro, things get much simpler, as you basically just shoot at her and move your students with Tracksuit Yuuka if necessary to make the cart hit Kuro, giving her +50% damage taken debuff. Hot Spring Chinatsu may randomly retreat near the end of the raid depending on your luck during Shiro, but at that point Kuro's nearly defeated anyway, so it doesn't really matter.

I was quite lucky to get a Maid Momoi borrow since (a) it's quite rare, and (b) it's in high demand. Having a one-team clear on Purple is arguably the reason why I can rank so high this raid.

“Wait. Wait. Wait wait wait wait wait,” Ranma said, pointing at the strange woman hugging Ryoga's dog form. “Who the hell are you?”
