I like this response, very protagonist-like. On the other hand, other than vocal outbursts, we seem to be adjusting extremely well to everything
Well there has to be some reason she was chosen out of everyone on Earth.

That and diving head first into the task at hand can be a coping method. Not a very healthy one in normal situations.
 
[X] Seriously!? We already have to deal with Magical Girls turning into monstrosities, weird cat things turning girls into said Magical Girls, and your telling me that things are just about to get even more chaotic! Can you at least tell me why? And I guess I better start training cause like hell am I going to let this world to down the fucking drain
 
Hmmmm.

Yea, no need for me to write up anything new, this ones great.

Also, obviously, we need that deal.
 
I'm liking how Yumi's personality is forming, being able to being both whimsical and serious at times.

How likely is the Lost Samurai to know about Magical Girls?

You stand still for a moment. You don't believe it.

"I understand your confusion, but this is a very real threat-"

"Are you fucking kidding me?!" You shout out in exasperation. "I've already gotta contend with Magical Girls, the rampant souls of Magical Girls, weird cat-plush things that turn people into Magical Girls, and you're telling me..." You point at him, "...You're telling me that I'm gonna have even more bullshit to deal with?! Why? Please tell me why!"

The Lost Samurai seems to be a bit taken aback by your outburst. He then says, "The best way I can explain it is with an analogy. This world is your home. Cracks are beginning to form in the walls, allowing access to demons. It will start with weaker demons, but more and stronger ones will come."

"Well then, let's get to training! Because I am sure as hell NOT going to let the world go down the fucking drain!" You growl the last sentence of your understandable outburst.

He clears his throat. Then, he hands you the Gauntlet. You take it slowly from his grasp.

You place it on you arm. Instantly, you feel the material inside begin to shift, perfectly fitting to your arm. Then, the screen lights up.

Wait what??!! We are cut off from fusing demons?! That is annoying for now and might be a problem in the long run. Recruiting demons will only take us so far, if that is an option, but to a point we will want to fuse then in order to diversify, specifically if it's like iv where skills we learn depend on the demons we have. I hope we don't unlock it too late.

Now comes the fun part, stat distribution!!! We have to focus on what our build will be. @TremendousMilk3 , how do we have to write the plan exactly? Does this work ?

[] Plan Physical Build!
-[] STR +5, DEX +2, END +3, AGL+3, INT +1, CHR +3, LUK +1

I suppose the Int stat will be the one that raises our mp and magic damage, right know its not as important because we don't have any spells, so prioritizing Str to actually hit our enemies harder and CHR for that sweet sweet character interaction and MC Shounen speeches if possible. Curious in this case what does DEX and AGL do exactly, one is to hit the enemies and the other one to avoid them? Feels weird having it separate.

Edit: Considering the info the QM gives us about the stats I'm altering the plan slightly to raise more our AGL.

[X] Plan Physical Build with DOGDE!
-[X] STR +3, DEX +2, END +3, AGL+5, INT +1, CHR +3, LUK +1

Stats And You: First Edition
@Kingster , Demon Fusion is cut off for now. Not entirely. Also, that vote is suitable. I'll explain each of your stats.

STR is Strength, which basically measure your striking/lifting strength. The more Strength you have, the more damage Physical moves and your normal strikes deal.

DEX is Dexterity, which is a handy way of measuring one's skill with their hands. A higher DEX will make ranged weapons and skills more effective.

END is Endurance, and that is your health/status ailment resistance. More END means more HP.

AGL is Agility, which is your speed. This determines your dodge chance, turn in battle, and how quickly you can move.

INT is Intelligence, any it can be summed up as your Magic stat. Not only will you have more MP, but your magic will deal more damage. Inversely, it will make healing skills heal for more.

CHR is Charisma, and it doesn't have a direct use in battle. This doesn't mean it's completely useless. You may be able to sway others to your side, or gloss over a mistake in negotiations.

LUK is Luck. More luck means more critical hits, and it can protect you from instant death skills.

If anyone needs more elaboration, please reach out to me. I'd be happy to help.

Thanks for the clarification about fusion and the stats! Makes me less worried now to tell the truth. I suppose the plan I make is good for now, might change it maybe to have more AGL than STR, so we can make sure that we actually stay alive, after all it doesn't matter if you can 1 hit kill enemies if it's the same for you, and considering the demons and magical girls we will be dealing with, becoming better at DOGDE! (DBZ!A Piccolo voice) would be smart.

Edit: Changed slightly the plan for the stats

@TremendousMilk3 will low int effect our behaviour? Because we have been doing fine so far and it would be really weird if miss "Odin Cosplay" suddenly woke up and forgot to read.

The idea behind this one is simple, we can't afford not to lean into our unique magic. Meguca magic costs a lot so if we specialise into a punchy healer, we can do a lot of good for our teammates for preserving magic.

Healing is expensive. Also maybe with enough healing we can do some none meguca good and clear out a few hospitals. Help some people in a more direct way.

More, I don't really think we need crits, and one point isn't really going to be a proper shield anyway. Better do one thing right than two poorly.

As for less Dex, honestly we should only have just enough to toss a little. We aren't going to be a ranged fighter anyway, so we shouldn't diversify into it too much, even if some bonus is still a good idea.

If I could I would have dropped luck into the negatives instead, and kept dex up, but no clue if we can do that.

But in the end, our character having no luck at all makes a lot of sense so far :p

Well, we do seem to have a floor of 5 for every stat, so I doubt it. I suspect +0 int would leave her as smart as she was before, not dumber.
