I didn't see it.
But then that sounds weird. Like, pining shipping, or yandere stalker shipping.

I have to ask: Isn't magic supposed to be difficult before the rise of the magic girls? Heh. I remember a couple of characters mentioning it over the course of the previous threads, and Walpurga had some bitchin' tattoos just so that she could cast spells back in WWII. So... Is this going to be a thing in the game or is it something that has been retconned out? I'm just curious as to how it'll go.

Well, the most complicated thing Kate can do is shape her mana into a weapon while transformed. The rest of her magic is essentially brute-forcing her mana via the simplest path she can take to boost her own strength or damage something. (In Kate's case this path is electricity.)

Well, both of my characters have good reasons to have simple, easy to use magic, as both of them were given magical abilities that were passed down and were made for the express purpose of protecting humanity, so it'd make sense that their powers would be easy to use; that way, the next guy to wield it wouldn't be wondering 'how do i shot web'. Even Maria back in RotMG V1 had a good reason, that being that she was being possessed by Anima, who knew how to cast the spells.

V1 is when magic came back into the world and let all of those magic girls fight back the Layar, so you don't have to explain that part. It's just that this game comes before it, so some kind of explanation is needed. That's all.

PCs aren't baseline humans.
Dalanda, for instance, mostly is.

Emilia and Raleigh are also mostly baseline humans. They, like good henshin heroes, need to magically transform to actually do anything. :P
