Does anything happen when you time out win against marie? does she have a timeout lose pose like the other characters?
Can you even win by time out…?
You can try, by using parasoul and spamming napalmshots
Yes you can.
She just explodes
I doubt it.
It would be something like Cerebella story where she was supposed to fight MsFortune in the end, but it’s just a cutscene where she grinds her into dust/diamonds
Mew Nyan.
I see what you guys did there…
Munan the zen Buddhist I’m hoping?
Filia story mode pics incoming, and in good quality!:

Gonna find a clear video that doesn’t have a name their for the last image, makes a good wallpaper
Yeah, as you may noticed between the Intro pics and the ending pics, it looks like they do have other artist other than Alex Ahad doing them, the linework does differ.
No its Ms. Fortune making a pun out of the resturant owner’s name Yu-Wan.
Also I want to give my two cents on the story. Overall I can’t help but feel a bit disappointed. I enjoyed the dialog and thought it had some nice whitty moments but, it was not as fleshed out as I know it could be. Also Doubles ending made it seem like mostly everything that happened didn’t happen or even particularly matter.
It strikes me as a weird way to start a story and it just left me wanting more.
my guess, with double’s meta ending, is that a little bit of everything is what really happened except for the mutually exclusive events like everyone being the one to defeat the skullgirl and other stuff like the cat now being diamonds
Spoiler
painwheel - still a monster, but with free will. still pursuing valentine for righteous vengeance. may or may not have brain drain still trying to control her.
filia - finds out carol is connected to her past, which is still a mystery. also related to the crime groups.
cerebella - still a jerk. still stuck in a screwed up family situation. not much else happens.
fortune - never finds/defeats the skullgirl, decides to go home anyway, but her fish pal still gets captured.
parasoul - discovers umbrella’s turning into . . . something. rescues her from catacombs. decides to train her. also get some ice cream.
peacock - strongest there is. the lab is still a wreck. whether or not dr. avian survives . . . could go either way. figures out her old BFF is the skullgirl.
valentine - double agent gonna keep double agenting.
yeah double’s ending is just weird.
Yep, the TRUE Story will likely be in the next game, as Aeon and Venus kinda said.
We know however that Marie was just a pawn a bigger game, and Double was really following the Trinity’s orders, searching for more potential Skullgirls being that Marie isn’t living up to her true potential and wasting time on the Medici Mafia. The Divine Trinity are the TRUE baddies here.
I’m also surprised how obviously evil the Lab Zero is.
As i played first the Peacock story, someone in that story said how Lab 8 and Lab Zero, had a partnership
How they maintain this partnership, blows my mind
In one you have Friendly Dr. Avian, and his colourful band of Charismatic Robots.
In the other you have BBEG Brain Drain, Guro Fetishist Valentine and Brainwashed flying monstrosity Painwheel.
In another note
Anvil Andy - Anvil of the year all years
Yep EVERYTHING is non canon.
i rather liked how she’s given ultimate power and she’s like “nah i won’t be doing what you say ‘cuz i got some revengin’ to do.” and now she’s the punisher combined with a maid.
i’d wish for an ending with marie and peacock just hanging out on the couch and watching cartoons
Hmm, Lab 8/Lab Zero kind of gives me Dr. Light/Dr. Wily vibes…

Apperently Filia minus Smason is blonde, lol. The new do just isn’t you!
You can actually, I think did this my first time and didn’t even get to see forms two or three.
They usually don’t let you win via time out against bosses.
Side note. I kind of feel like Filia’s hair is a parody of Emma Stone, lmao. I know that’s silly (would make more sense if Samson was red), but still.
had the EXACT same thought. Leduc seems like a Megaman character.
Okay, I know that it’s highly, highly unlikely, but does anyone else find "mother"s silouette to be eerily familiar to Parasoul’s mom’s?
Isn’t it that evil godess? What was her name, lamia?
I’ll admit I was a huge baby and cried like a sissy at some stories. BAWWWW
I cannot emphasize enough how much I loved Peacock’s.
I’m just gonna let out and gush about it here. Massive spoilers and all that.
Spoiler
So hers started off with some technobabble, which is always fun. I’m kind of interested in what the hell the technobabble actually means x: Soul contamination? Theonite? what? It’s dumb but I love random universe stuff like this. Sue me.
The pink haired lady’s name is Hive, which makes me wonder at her abilities, but she didn’t do anything… oh well. Overall it starts out kind of cool and funny, although that moment in her dream with the eye-gouging really stuck to me. No, seriously. I actually dreamed it last night. Not a fun way to wake up. x__x Poor girl.
The intermediate fights are all really ambiguous storywise, unfortunately… I assume that like everyone else, she was just randomly beating up people who got in her way. But then Valentine has to go and be a huge bitch and sic the Skullgirl on Lab 8 and OH MY GOD PEACOCK IS CRYING? what?! I guess she had a soft spot for Dr. Avian. But then again, I think anyone would be grateful to someone who saved your life and gave you awesome super powers to boot
So she goes on a roaring rampage of revenge, though she seems to be distraught when she gets a good look at Marie. Then a Double battle where Peacock spouted some of the most hilarious opening/winquotes I’ve heard from her. Good stuff. Goes to church, gets dissed by Valentine, offs Valentine. And oh boy she’s going into the basement!
Dun dun dun, It’s Marie! Suddenly, backstory. Marie became the Skullgirl in order to avenge Patricia… who was turned into the Anti-skullgirl weapon Peacock. Oh man, do I love some dramatic irony. Peacock’s lines are great here: “Of course I’m worried about you, because I’m going to kill you!” Perfect. One frustrating boss battle later, Peacock goes into badass mode… starts by fuckin’ lasering the skull heart in style! …and then making me CRY SISSY TEARS talking to Marie.
And then she became Batman and killed the entire mafia in one night. Tell me that’s not fucking awesome.
I knew there was a reason I liked Peacock. She seems to be a whoooole lot less villainous than I was making her out to be before! Oops. But it’s a good thing in my opinion. Seriously, she needs like… her own spinoff or something. Fantastic FANTASTIC character.
Overall… I was really surprised at how mafia-centric the stories were. Pretty much the only one not really involved with them in some way is… Painwheel? Marie in particular took me by surprise. Anyway! I am seriously looking forward to more.
