Alright, Phase 1 of the raid boss down, good shit, now everyone pop your recoveries and prep buffs while the shell is up and she's in her summoning animation so we're ready for Phase 2.

Thank you for the translation!

Thinking back to all the times the "saint" has looked down on "mobs", it feels real good to see all the ordinary people from the story gather courage and stand up against her. It is more than just good vs. evil, it is a personal journey for everyone involved. I like it! :)

But it's not an ass-pull.

Consider that in a lot of JRPG games, the protagonist has some kind of "Ultra-Mode" they gain late in the game in order to face down the BBEG at the end.

The Saintess, even though she's psychopath, is still the nominal protagonist of the setting. So it's natural that she'd have an ability like this.
Cool thing about super modes though, unless the game invokes DANGEROUSLY CHEESY™, They are STILL usually reliant having a party to back them up. otherwise you just get brawled down because the final boss has better stats... and sometimes a supermode of their own.

something about that quote about how the more advanced a magic system is the funnier it is to see a gun pulled out

Lunaria: carefully planning every move.

"Saintess": just throwing temper tantrums.

Oh, of course. She's definitely gonna get steam roller'd.

(Kind of a shame this doesn't lean a bit more into comedy. I'd love to see a villainess do a za wrudo on a heroine.)

Take it from someone who's been there, this isn't how abuse dynamics work. In order to "grow a spine", someone who's been horribly abused absolutely must have someone they know is on their side to protect them.

And even with that, it doesn't happen right away.

This is something that is so well known that there's actually an international biker club that is dedicated towards sheltering abused children from their abusers. They will protect abused children from any further attacks from the abuser, and even go to court hearings and trials to shield and support abused children.
