1. What is your name and which server is your citadel in?

mirie, Bicchuu no Kuni

2. When did you start serving as a saniwa? Please display your battle records.

March 10. http://i.imgur.com/rQHN5bb.png

3. Which starter sword did you pick? What is he doing now?

Yamanbagiri, currently one of the lvl 99 swords I often put on the first team solo when I'm AFK so other people can get more EXP.

4. Who is the first among your swords to reach the maximum level? What do you think of him?

Horikawa, which happened because I used to think scouting success was based solely on the leader's scouting stats, so I kept putting him as leader since he's my favourite wakizashi, haha. I do love him though so I don't mind.

5. Who do you have in each of your squads, and how do you use them? If you haven’t unlocked all four teams yet, briefly describe how you plan to organize them.

First team rotates depending on which map I'm going to, others are pretty much on non-stop expeditions.

6. Without considering the performance of the swords, which type of sword do you prefer?

Wakizashi, for the scouting & long-range troops.

7. Next, we come to the usual questions. List the swords that you like and your thoughts on them.

All three Kunihiros are my absolute favourite. Horikawa's an absolute hard-working darling, and I fell hard for his brothers after watching the recollection - Yamanbagiri not being mopey and Yamabushi being introspective! Atsushi is also totally adorable. But really, there's always something to like about each sword boy.

8. Are there any pairings that you like? If there, please list them. (No limit on type.)

babushi (OTP), sousetsu, namahone, a few others I'd look at fics/art for but don't really actively seek out.

<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:24pt;font-size:14px;line-height:22px;text-indent:-24pt;">9. Is your citadel an employee-friendly citadel or a black-hearted citadel that works your swords to the bone?

<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:24pt;font-size:14px;line-height:22px;text-indent:-24pt;">*Looks at Akita returning from expedition with an orange face* ...I guess it's closer to black-hearted, haha.

<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:24pt;font-size:14px;line-height:22px;text-indent:-24pt;">10. Have you ever done anything weird to your swords?

<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:24pt;font-size:14px;line-height:22px;text-indent:-24pt;">Um, putting Horikawa as leader and poking him a lot every time he gets moderately damaged? I guess that's the weirdest.

<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:24pt;font-size:14px;line-height:22px;text-indent:-24pt;">11. Have you ever broken a sword? What happened, and who did you break?

<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:24pt;font-size:14px;line-height:22px;text-indent:-24pt;">I've broken swords three times (all with omamori on) while pushing to boss nodes in search of rare drops. Maeda & Mutsunokami on 6-2, Kasen on 5-3.

<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:24pt;font-size:14px;line-height:22px;text-indent:-24pt;">12. Who loses troops the most in your citadel? And who is the most skilled at making troops?

<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:24pt;font-size:14px;line-height:22px;text-indent:-24pt;">Honestly IME it's super random. One day someone will be making all the gold troops and none at all the next day. Same thing with losing troops - on a good day I can bring a tantou to a KBC-infested 5-4 and return pretty much unscathed, other times oodachi's elites would drop like flies.

<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:24pt;font-size:14px;line-height:22px;text-indent:-24pt;">13. Another common question: have you ever done something with all of your might in order to get a particular sword? Please describe what you did and the results.

<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:24pt;font-size:14px;line-height:22px;text-indent:-24pt;">See breaking swords above. None of them ended with me getting Akashi or Kogitsunemaru (though thankfully the former came to me from the event).

<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:24pt;font-size:14px;line-height:22px;text-indent:-24pt;">14. Are you superstitious? (www)

<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:24pt;font-size:14px;line-height:22px;text-indent:-24pt;">No, I guess.

<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:24pt;font-size:14px;line-height:22px;text-indent:-24pt;">15. What made you join the TKRB fandom in the beginning? How about now?

<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:24pt;font-size:14px;line-height:22px;text-indent:-24pt;">I had no interest in the game until I found out that Yamashita Daiki was playing not one, but two characters. Those two are some of my favourite tantous now, and I continue playing since I've come to love many other characters as well.

<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:24pt;font-size:14px;line-height:22px;text-indent:-24pt;">16. What do you think of the current maps? (For example: which map is good for training/grinding, which maps do you get lost in the most, which map do you want to burn?)

<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:24pt;font-size:14px;line-height:22px;text-indent:-24pt;">4-3 and 4-4 are my go-to maps for grinding. 5-2 and 6-1 are branching nightmares.

<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:24pt;font-size:14px;line-height:22px;text-indent:-24pt;">17. Are there any game systems or improvements that you hope DMM will implement?

<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:24pt;font-size:14px;line-height:22px;text-indent:-24pt;">More fixed branching rules, even if it means more difficult battles. Also seasonal CGs a la Kancolle would be nice, although I understand if they'd rather not since it might be more work considering there are more CGs per character in Tourabu.

<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:24pt;font-size:14px;line-height:22px;text-indent:-24pt;">18. If DMM cooperates on an event with another game/anime/etc., what would you like to see?

<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:24pt;font-size:14px;line-height:22px;text-indent:-24pt;">I don't have any particular preference.

<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:24pt;font-size:14px;line-height:22px;text-indent:-24pt;">19. Have you spent money playing TKRB? If so, how much? If not, do you plan to?

<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:24pt;font-size:14px;line-height:22px;text-indent:-24pt;">Bought both extra repair rooms and one set of extra sword slots. May buy even more slots when even more swords get implemented.

<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:24pt;font-size:14px;line-height:22px;text-indent:-24pt;">20. Is there any merchandise that you would like to buy or see?

<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:24pt;font-size:14px;line-height:22px;text-indent:-24pt;">Scale figures of any of the Kunihiros pls. Preferably in shinken hissatsu mode. Actually, I'd like to see a scale figure of any toudan in shinken hissatsu mode, but I'd probably only buy it if it's any of those three.

<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:24pt;font-size:14px;line-height:22px;text-indent:-24pt;">21. Have you done any fanwork (fanfiction, fanart, etc.)? If so, what?

<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:24pt;font-size:14px;line-height:22px;text-indent:-24pt;">Not yet. I do have some fanfic ideas but haven't got to writing them yet.

<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:24pt;font-size:14px;line-height:22px;text-indent:-24pt;">22. What do you think you are like as a saniwa?

<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:24pt;font-size:14px;line-height:22px;text-indent:-24pt;">Short of actually breaking a sword without an omamori on, I pretty much check all the tickboxes of a kuso saniwa. Non-stop expeditions until the boys return with an orange face, continued sorties even at orange health, refusing to use help tokens unless it's a 20 hr+ timer even when I've got hundreds of them, causing the boys to have to queue for repair...

<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:24pt;font-size:14px;line-height:22px;text-indent:-24pt;">23. If the government asked you to choose a sword to kill yourself with in terms of emergency, who would you pick?

<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:24pt;font-size:14px;line-height:22px;text-indent:-24pt;">Can't I just do it with a random cleaver? I'd rather not inflict that on any of my toudans, haha.

<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:24pt;font-size:14px;line-height:22px;text-indent:-24pt;">24. The government has asked you to write a report: how would you describe the situation in your citadel?

<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:24pt;font-size:14px;line-height:22px;text-indent:-24pt;">Blew another 3k of each resources on smithing today. Still no 4:00 timers. Sending teams to patrol Sunomata and Atsukashiyama for some thousandth time.

<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:24pt;font-size:14px;line-height:22px;text-indent:-24pt;">25. What do you think of the Retrograding Army?

<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:24pt;font-size:14px;line-height:22px;text-indent:-24pt;">There isn't much backstory on them - heck, the KBCs seems more fleshed out in that respect - but I'd definitely be interested in that. Where do they come from? Are they also commanded by a saniwa somewhere?

<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:24pt;font-size:14px;line-height:22px;text-indent:-24pt;margin-bottom:0px!important;">26. Lastly, please say something about TKRB from the bottom of your heart!

<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:24pt;font-size:14px;line-height:22px;text-indent:-24pt;margin-bottom:0px!important;">I love everyone in this bar citadel.
