I've been replaying the game with all the insights learned nowadays and it's a whole different experience when I was limiting myself.

And well, the results are pretty funny to me. I seem to have a different opinion compared to others in the game's best members throughout the entire length. Akihiko's touted as one of the best all throughout the games and well, I think the footage speaks for how much of a sham that is.

I believe that he's serviceable but all of his tools are instantly outclassed by the others. There will always be a better option throughout the game. It's honestly a bit saddening for me, in a way.
