Let the bitching about Toson begin....again....

Very solid, yuudai-like ability, and honestly, it's aroru, he showed up in storyline recently. This guy has to have a shadow-brand.

I imagine it will be more passive aggressive comments than true bitching. Me? I'm just happy to have two great previews. Anything else is under the bridge.

You have a ninja there too, I hear he was pretty good back in the day

While we may poke fun at scorpions, we generally agree with the more agreeable of them. Perk up, this guy is rocking.

A fantastic ninja.

I'm really curious about the language on the ranged attack - if that is going to be more common phrasing. It prevents reductions but it also will prevent combining if that's coming back - or any other triggers. It is really interesting to see it that way - and suggests there will be more things to make it relevant.

When you absolutely positively have to kill someone accept no substitutes.

Moto Yuudai?

It only prevents the opponent from reacting, you can still increase its strength with Arrows do not Falter or something similar.

As far as Aroru himself goes he's fantastic, but another non-Loyal key Scorp perturbs me.
