I'm not worried about the FBI. Because I have her big brother to vouch for me.

Prisma Ilya event confirmed: HELL YEAH!
Realizing we have to hear the unironically and overly stale FBI jokes for about a month:

[elgatoburgues]

Local thicc monk beats magical girl on ranking, more at 3:00 a.m. on BB Channel!

These hands... will never be able to hold her

The only reason I want Illya is to reunite her with her family

Just realised that Illya's Bond CE is even more FBI bait than Chloe.

My mind is telling me noooo!!

MY
IS TELLING ME

After regretting not rolling on spunk monk will go pretty hard on Illya cause need that single target caster and after listening to her my room lines she is just too precious. Must protect at all costs!

Actually, her NP gain is pretty much identical to Tamamo's, minus the refund on the NP of course. Which is still pretty bad, but definitely not -far- below average, thanks to the three arts cards alone.

As for team mates, I can't wait for BB to come out. She will give Illya everything she needs to completely negate her downsides:
Debuffs and survivability? BB has a 4-turn CD cleanse + heal + debuff immune skill.
NP Gain? Have a 20% charge everytime BB uses her own NP.
The enemy screws your 1-shot setup with an invincible? We can't have that, let's remove than invul and stun the enemy while we're at it.

Now slap a Tamamo on top of that and we're looking at a fairly spammable 50% NP charge plus a lot of heals _plus_ CDR. Not to mention that Fox Wedding gives Illya essentially three more Buster cards to play with.

When I look at Chloe and her Illya specific skill, I wish they had gone with the first dual welfare servants event as there’s a chance you won’t have illya making Chloe’s skill partially useless.

Me: Well, what do you think?

Lawyer: Well I’ve been going over the facts, and it’s plain as day, the Waifu accords of 2004 (as well as a university study) spell it out right here. Anime Lolis are too cute, and a whopping 94 percent of people who collect them are in no way suffering pedophilia.

Me: Huh. That does explain a lot. So you’re saying I should roll until my wallet bleeds?

Lawyer: Uhhh well that doesn’t really sound healthy si-

Me: UNTIL IT BLEEDS!!!

I always appreciate people like you who take the time to read every comment and reply to your viewers. Most youtubers stop doing that after a certain number of subs. Keep up the great work.

Been looking forward to this one! Another great spotlight.

I'm definitely going to pull for Illya. My offensive caster options are Caster Liz and...Medea I think. So I wouldn't mind options. And I do have options that can work with her like Nero Bride, Waver, Hans, etc. But even if she wasn't any good, I'd probably still pull for her just because I like the character anyways. She has weaknesses to work around, but that means raising the challenge a bit to build around her. Will see if I get lucky and get a chance to try.

[gshorter]

Soooo got spooked by Sanzo on a single pull. Guess she was happy I praised her in your Illya spotlight and when Illya was about to appear she was like. “Master told G&A reviews he doesn’t need you because he has me!” And now I have NP4 Sanzo! I’m happy and I got the CE’s also Jean decided she wanted to be a magical girl too, so I pulled 2 non rate up 5 stars in less that 90 seriously need to get a lotto ticket.

[manlycorn]

I have Emiya, Emiya Assasssin, Irisviel and Heracles. I hope thats enough of a reason for her to come home.
