Not a summary, just something I think interesting.

Spoilers under cut.

Before leaving, Natori asked Sensei not to let the two go too far. (Sensei: What!?)

Tanuma just suddenly picked up the box and examined it closely, startling Natsume and Iwakura LOL

"Hey, this is dangerous! This isn't something a child can just touch!" "Sorry, I couldn't help myself..." "Couldn't help yourself!?"

LOL

Wow

Cute girls.

The two little girls had called out to Okakure-san to ask where their lost fruit bead bracelet was, but they didn't get an answer. Instead, Okakure-san helped them (telling them it was going to rain soon and they should go home), so they were very grateful to it.

Then Natsume saw that Okakure-san was wearing the fruit bead bracelet on one of its arms, and he was speechless.

Just as the girls were about to answer what they wanted to ask Okakure-san, Nyanko-sensei suddenly interrupted, "Go ask who switched the box." Natsume could only hurriedly pretend it was him who uttered that middle-aged voice LOL

Tanuma stated that they are investigating and cannot rule out the possibility that all four boxes are fake.

+

Although Natsume was willing to involve Tanuma in the investigation, it seemed uncertain how much he would actually involve him. In fact, Natsume had no idea how much he could really tell others.

In contrast, Tanuma was quite proactive in offering his opinions, openly using the Matoba family's name, picking up the box without asking, and even frankly revealing what they were investigating... This felt quite like Matoba's decisive style.

Here is my island customization (without using the Palette House) that nobody's interested in.

I initially planned to make it like the terrain in OT1. So I made the coastline based on the art book, and after using buildings to represent towns, I was at a loss.

Later, I changed my approach. Instead of trying to completely replicate the map, I focused on creating an island that retained the location and unique features of the region.

This area is based on the Riverlands.

Although there are two large cities in the game, it is still based on Alfyn's hometown.

Based on the Cliftlands. Without making mountains, I don't know how to create the effect of cliffs, but regional colors can be reproduced using red.

Based on the Woodlands. Just fill it with lots of trees. One half feels dense, while the other half is designed for scenic views.

Based on the Frostlands. Because it's a snowy mountain area, a white base is used. I'm curious if the game will have snow floors to use in winter.

However, since it's difficult to decorate just a snowy (white) ground, I made a path. I may change the tree type if the game adds winter-limited trees in the future, if I'm still playing the game then.

I wanted to make it like Flatlands... but it doesn't really look like it anymore. The throne was placed there because Atlasdam has a castle.

The Coastlands, therefore, means coastline and beaches. Other than that, it doesn't have any other defining features.

By the way, I initially modeled the entire island after Rippletide, but as the island grew larger and the population increased, I realized I needed to re-modify it, hence the current design.

Base on the Highlands. Again, no mountains.

The fountain was placed here because Shepherds Rock(OT0) has a fountain. And the empty space next to the fountain is because I ran out of ideas, but I figured I could put a house there when I add a new Mii, so I left it empty.

Base on the Sunlands. So, sand.

There aren't any round bushes to pair with oases in this game, and the areas around oases are quite empty. I may consider adding things later.

+

To be honest, in OT1, the inland sea isn't that big, and the bridge in the east isn't that long either. However, dividing the area into squares is still quite convenient.

If I had made some things myself, like mountains and denser trees, I might have been able to try out the design I initially created based on the map. But as someone who isn't good at drawing and has no design talent... I think I've done my best with my OT-theme island.

+

BTW

I miraculously got these seven people to live together!

As for Osvald... He's a bit of a problem, since he has a hard time making friends. I'll see if he moves in first or if Throné and Castti ask me for a child first. (Except for Osvald, I let them develop all sorts of romantic relationships freely. And those two got married just five days after I added them in, which really surprised me.)

Similar to last time, but this time it's Therion chasing Alfyn.

And this is the result:

Cute

Tomodachi Life X Octopath Traveler Pt.2

Aside from creating NPCs, I haven't done anything... My island is a complete mess.

Compared to the main characters, I'm curious how many NPCs will be recognizable... (3 of them are from OT0/COTC)

By the way, the older generation was really fun LOL

[dreamer1084]

I finally finished making the pets for each of the eight of them. Even though I can copy from the official art, they're still quite difficult to make.

Distinguishing the color of each pixel almost blinded my eyes.

The Pixel Olberic is inexplicably popular LOL

The first time all eight of them appeared to be talking together was during a discussion about the Pixel Tressa.

And I added Zeph, Nina, Mercedes and Lianna.

These two siblings are cuter than I imagined.

I've only been playing this game for three days (so I don't have many good outfits), but this is amazing.

Spoilers of Natsuyuu Ch.140

Not a summary, just something I think interesting.

Spoilers under cut.

Very interesting chapter cover image. Natori, Natsume, Matoba are both wearing masks, and Taruma is the only exception.

This is similar to many of the illustrations previously drawn in the afterword.

I didn't expect that the character introduction panel would actually be the character relationship diagram for this entire arc (for now).

It's that same phrase again: "the smell of lavender bath oil when taking a lavender bath LOL

Cool...

It's truly rare to see these four together in the same panel.

The four people and one cat arrived at Kashima's house. When they mentioned wanting to see the box, Natsume, Tanuma and Natori were surprised by the warm welcome they received. There was even a sign outside the room where the box was kept that read, "Hako-sama is over here →".

The expressions on everyone's faces after they found out the Kashima family had so openly displayed the box LOL

Natori was angry that the Kashima family had so casually displayed the box, but Motoba gently and tactfully advised Kashima to protect themselves from people they shouldn't trust, even praising them for their efforts in fulfilling their duty to guard the box, in exchange for information from her.

I don't know why, but I find this quite interesting.

Before leaving, Matoba extended an invitation to Natori, indicating that he might need his help in the future and also hoping that Natsume and Sensei would be present. Tanuma could only silently watch Matoba's (and Nanase's) retreating figure.

In the past, Tanuma might have felt uneasy and powerless because he couldn't see the same scenery as Natsume or help him properly... But this time, I don't think he is like that. Maybe because he did manage to help out a little here, or Matoba's words about the responsibilities of a temple person had made Tanuma realize something?

The expressions on everyone's faces when Natsume questioned Natori LOL

[nyankocatnyan]

I want to see them get married 🥲

[fulgurbugs]

Headcanon ask: How would each character feel/react to their class counterpart's final boss? For example how would Temenos feel about Mattias, how would Alfyn react to Trousseau, et cetera. Alternatively... (Therion-centric one sorry): Therion is canonically ambidextrous according to banter, but trains both hands. Which hand do you headcanon is naturally his dominant one, or is he good with both? Is his handwriting different depending on which hand he uses? If so, does he use that to his advantage in any way?

This was a fun one
