I think I said earlier that I thought that Tiz was little boring in the first game, but I really like him in this. The funny thing is that they did not really change him. I guess I started to appreciate his calm and positive attitude, as he acts as the reason of the group. I also like his new hair style. It`s basically the stereotype JRPG protagonists spiky hair, and the make fun of it a little.
I also had some trouble with Agnes in the first game, how she at the beginning only cared about her own quest and ignored others. Now all of that is gone, and she is the dorky Agnes that gets lost easily.
Edea freaking Lee is still amazing. I actually did an air fist pump when she saved Yew, the protagonist(I guess he is?), during the prologue. They even had her old special theme playing during the scene, amazing! Edea also seems to sleep talk, and she usually dreams about chocolate, cake and other sweets. It is quite hilarious.
I also can`t believe how much I missed her trademark pissed:" Mrgrrgrg!"
Yew is an soldier of the Crystalguard, likes to read and observe things, and write things down like a scholar. He is brave but he still needs to depend on his friends. His old pals, Janne an Nikolai, betray him in the beginning and that leaves some scars in his heart. It is interesting to watch Yew trying to deal with that betrayal, and I am curious to see how he will solve it. It also hinted that there is something dark in Yew`s noble family`s history.
Mangnolia gives interesting perspectives to things since she is from the Moon. She wonders how all of these areas are different and etc... It also hinted pretty heavily that she has feelings towards Yew and this sometimes causes some comedic and hilarious moments between the two. I think the only thing that I don`t like her character isn`t really about her personality or anything, but that she sometimes speaks English. I play the game in Japanese and she says the English lines in a super annoying way that makes me cringe really badly every time it happens. That is the only complain I have about the character.
Man, I really hope we meet Ringabel or either at least Alternis in the story at one point. Man I miss him.
