This was both Black Swan's and Sparkle's companion mission! That's why Black Swan was in most of it. Also the scene where they discover Sparkle's body is a freaaing danganronpa reference lmao anyways space hu tao is such a fun character
To be fair, they did label it as Sparkle’s quest featuring Black Swan, instead of a Black Swan quest featuring Sparkle. I think it should’ve been labeled as a Black Swan quest.
This quest suppose to be Black swan quest with a little bit of Sparkle just like Yukong sharing quest with welt Also the reason why sparkle disguises herself as sampo in the main story is because to get close to us MC before finally send us to the real dreamscape and this quest is taken place after the main quest that why the real sampo was here in this quest but not in the main story, it's because he just arrived in penacony to ask for his mask. And I have a speculation that after penacony story end there will be a incident in Jarilo that why sampo want his mask back, maybe either to save Belobog or to play in belobog. I think each masked fools have their own mask representing their own power so I think that the current sampo didn't have his 100% power yet because all he do until now is sneak around and never want to join the fight (at least in the story) so does that mean we will get 5 star sampo??? who know....
You are correct, memories CAN lie. Like, I sometimes forge false memories in my mind without meaning to. For example, I "remembered" that female MC from Persona 3 Portable, actually had an anime-style cutscene of her pointing the "Evoker" to her head, and was too scared to pull the trigger. That, was entirely false. It was not female MC who was in that cutscene, it was Yukari, one of the other girls in the game, and that very cutscene, explains why early in the game, Mitsuru doubted her of being strong enough in her willpower to pull the trigger, when female MC was able to do it without fear.
I expect the last story, about the locked room murder, to be relevant to the ongoing story. Robin's death is kinda sus, I can see it being staged. I mean the whole crime scene was literally staged for the Trailblazer to see it. Even the body waited patiently before evaporating.
I was wondering that too. Weird how the body just chilled there until we conveniently walked in. It also didn’t turn into goop like Firefly did. That’s a good theory that Sparkle’s recreating the scenes. The fact that she obviously had something to do with it, given she knew already about Robin’s “death” supports that. Maybe they’re both working together and Sparkle was the “assistant” in that scenario, potentially along with Aventurine as well.
KETS I LOVE YOUR VIDS! whenever I have a good day, a normal day or a sad day I tend to put on one of your videos because you always manage to cheer me up! You can make my day go from a 2 to a 7-8! LOVE YOU PLZ KEEP MAKING VIDEOS LIKE THIS♥️
haha i feel like da writers had an idea what to do with these characters at the same time they didn't which is why this companion quest is so all over da place probably didnt come out the best way since most of the dialogues in here are pretty much confusing to follow but let them cook. All this hype for sparkle hopefully they do justice with her character in da remaining penacony arc
Kets story content is always a treat. I love how he condenses and edits them knowing we’ve already played the quest, so he just has fun edits with the dialogue.
So just to clear it out to Kets, that's the real Sampo visiting Penacony to get his mask bc there will be a catastrophe in Belobog. Sampo was confirmed to be going in Penacony in a dream bubble accessible in the Aetherium wars area after u finished it. At the last part, Sampo said: Don't worry about that Memokeeper (referring to Black Swan and not Sparkle). All I can say is Kets won't understand the quest bc Sparkle is just there. Yep. Definitely not a simp.
There is an elevator that goes to the aetherium arena. Before getting to the elevator there is a staircase and the memory bubble is next to it@@ironheadedDoF
btw, nice choice in music in your videos, I can pinpoint where the songs come from. Like that "sad music" is a theme music in the Naruto anime, that plays whenever something sad and depressing happens, such as a death of an character for example.
About that sentient trashcan, you forget, that you're still in a dream world. Dreams are not restricted by logic. I should know, I get plenty of strange dreams. For example, I had a weird dream one night, of being with my friends from online, but with them nearby and with me as a girl with exaggerated assets. Then what happened next was some nearly invisible enemy targeting a specific one of my friends, I spotted, and before they could get at my friend, I sacrificed myself in his place, and I was transported to a dream world while looking abit different, then that same friend when he slept (not the real him, the dream him my sleeping mind conjured up), entered the same dream realm I was trapped it, I sold him some stardust or whatever, and due to his power of dreams, he carried over what I sold to him, into the "real world". And that is where the actual dream I had ended. This was long before Honkai Impact 3rd did a similar story gimmick with main story Part 2, where the dream Senadina gave the Dreamseeker something, and the Dreamseeker wakes up somewhere else, only to still have the items the dream version of Senadina gave her in the dream. My strange dream I recalled and put into this comment, I only still remember it to this day, because I documented it due to the idea of a dream world being "real", and carried items from a dream into the real world, gave great story potential, and roleplay potential. So, I wrote down the events of my dream, and then with me actually being awake, I made up some lore for it. If you're wondering why the mature "context" was in a dream I had, you can blame the very friends of mine that I drempt about, who are into so much weird stuff, and "share" it with me. Their influence may have affected my dream that night. tldr: Anything can happen in a dream, it's not bound by logic. Even dreaming of dreaming of a dreamworld having "real" effects on the me in a dream I had a dream about can happen. I have other, less strange dreams, but I tend to have weird dreams regardless, even if it's nothing I like
That was the most strange and confusing quest in the entire game, I didn't understand anything at all. Except that, once again, Sparkle is mentally ill. Still, it doesn't stop her from being super cute :3
I would say one thing Mr Kets you are respectfully a simp for Sparkle, I am not saying you are simp but you are respectfully a simp ok, by the way that was the sparkle story quest because she doesn't like to be a MC that's why her story quest feels like black swan story quest get it, thanks for the great vid my man❤❤❤
I don't think the "under the protection of the Family" thingy applied to stowaway like Firefly because she login the dreamscrape from outside the hotel. She may not be dead dead, but may be did got some consequences like it hurt like hell, or sleep for the next 2 patches until we smack that boss.
The quest itself is allusion to how Sparkle isn't the "main" character in the Penacony arc despite how important she seems to be. She's working behind the scenes even in her own companion quest. Also, Black Swan has a mole on her back if you never looked 😉
1:17 reminder that the family blocked that place and guide people to a different place to prevent that thing from hurting anyone the only reason firefly was able to enter this place to begin with was cus sparkle sended her there
In my opinion the only real sampo we saw was at the very start of the sparkle story and at the end. Theres no way the sampo throughout the middle of the quest (No cheating!!) and the main story was the real sampo. I think he was just in penacony so sparkle could use him and he could get his mask back
I could be wrong, but I think that what makes the meme that killed Firefly, is that it is capable to kill people in their dreams. Though we don’t know all the details yet
I like how black swan got eyes on trailblazer sorry sparkle got to find else to play your games which is not hard she obsession of herself like a crazy actor wants attention on the stage 😂😁.
I love how Black Swan got so salty when she lost that she used her memory powers on them Also the dream bubble might be a warning from Black Swan about how dangerous Sampo and Sparkle are since they were able to fool her despite her trying to read their memories to solve the riddles set up by Sparkle
Did they change Sampo's VA or something? He sounds SO different in Pentacony. But I REALLY don't like him, so it completely ruined this quest for me, I ended up having to mute it and speed clicking through it, so at least I could get the Kets' recap, much appreciated :)
Pretty sure he used magic to get a -lot- of jades during the Sparkle summoning video. But check it first before taking this as gospel! There are a lot of jades to be had at the events right now.
I think he's mostly f2p, like I wouldn't doubt he dipped in the wallet once or twice, but I wouldn't call him p2w. Especially when he chooses cap his characters at 50. He test runs other's p2w accounts so he gets the best of both worlds.
@@FayolaOnline yeah, depends how you see F2P. He doesn’t pull every character, and he doesn’t pull ANY lightcones. Pretty sure Sparkle was the only time he had to spend to get a character, but regardless of that his account is definitely more F2P than anything.
@@FayolaOnline Of course, I don't call him a "whale" or a pay to win. I adore Kets as a content creator regardless of which is true. I just urge people to make an opinion on their own by looking at available sources. Aka, the Sparkle pull video and make an opinion on their own. As I first said, I don't even have proof for either nor do I need any to enjoy the content. Kets is just awesome and fun to watch, that's enough for me. ^^
