Lv18 became clear after the grid is also the land.

 

9:27

What is weak here ... what a strong boss.

The sky is finally clear the grid.

Compared with the land, only tricky minute free-flow action does not appear that there is no wall.

 

not sure if its a perfect translation but this is what google translate said

Surely, the outstanding amount of videos uploaded will be nearly impossible to stop.

 

You'd be suprised. They went pretty crazy with the mass video deletion on Birth By Sleeps Japanese release.

Google Translate isnt the best. But where it says the sky, replace it with Sora and "the land" with Riku

ソラもファンタジアをクリアだー。これで次の世界が解放された。次の世界は…ほう…

時間的にまだ最後じゃないと思うけど、中盤の山場ってとこかな？Lv38。

 

19:57

うお、今気づいたんだけど、1人でケアル2つセットできるのか。

ケアル、ケアルラ、ケアルガ、ケアルガをセットした。

そうか、ここまでケアル1個だけ(ケアルラ、ケアルガは持ってたけど使用せず)だったから辛かったのか…ｗ

これ正直ケアルガ8個でもいいような

Sora also cleared Fantasia. With this the next world was released. The next world is... Hmmm...

In a matter of time I don't think it is the end yet. Maybe we're halfway to the climax? Lv38.

 

19:57

Wow, I just realized it! One character can equip two Cures.

I get it. It was this tough to get here because I was using only one Cure (Although I had Cura and Curaga).

Honestly I wish I could equip 8 Curagas.

意外と難しいもんだなー。

 

21:40

フリーズしたああああああああああふざけんなああああああああああああああああああ

リアリティシフトで石を全部消したのに次の画面に行かない

と思ったら、下画面を指で連打したら何故か復活。 あぶねえ…。

 

22:00

なんか1マップ進むのにすごい時間がかかるｗ

敵が固いのか、こっちが弱いのか…。 今ソラがLv34、リクがLv36くらいだったかな。

ドリームイーターはみんなLv50とかになってるのが何ともｗ
