FINALLY!!!!!! Skill point for Stage 55 of Fantasy Maiden Wars 3 earned. After two-three days of slow progression and restarts, it's finally over. Seeing her death animation is so cathartic (and it honestly looks good with it's imitation of a Supernova). If it was like this one Hard, I can't imagine anyone doing it on Lunatic difficulty, unless they only spent all their money on two or three characters.

SpoilerThis definitely kicked the final stage FMW 2 and even both of Moonbitch's stages from this one off their 'most difficult stage' pedestal. The sheer amount of batshit insanity in all the stages was astounding, especially when I finally got to the end, only to be stonewalled completely when her field took affect again. At least I started making regular mid-stage backups back in FMW 2, or I may have been having a fit during my first attempt at the stage. Dealing with 3 MAP attacks (two with infinite range) was Hell, with just as much fire.
According to this, on my last complete attempt, I soft reset 266 times (not counting all the times I reloaded a backup to try to re-perform a segment). I honestly feel like this is 2 or 3 times higher if you count everything over the past few days.
SpoilerI might have been able to perform a bit better with the Prismriver sisters (best overall unit in the game probably), but they don't have the survivability of the Fairies of Light-----which was vital for living through this stage-----. Also, I wanted them to land the final blow, but circumstances would not let them deal enough damage. Sorry that I could not represent Faries quite as brightly @Wolfox, though they remained dealing damage till the last turn and still survived.
Okuu even managed to snag Moonbitch's record of most damage dealt to me, getting at least double that, for a total of 42120..............
As fed up as I am with the stage, at least it had great backgrounds and it managed to capture a sense of danger/urgency that the canon situation failed to do.
