Nazrin
Personality: Cautious (Kill: +4, Evade: +3, Ally Killed: +1, Graze: +2)
Personal Skills: Rat Bite (An attacked enemy will take +10% damage for a turn, limited uses), Clever Commander (SP costs -10%), Cornered Rat (Ignores size differences during damage calculations)
Spirits: Scan, Focus, Alert, Trust (25)

If Nazrin were a 1.5 she'd be amazing, but as a 2.0 she's kind of just there. Her small size means that without Cornered Rat she won't be doing too much damage, but Clever Commander and Rat Bite are both so good that it's kind of tough giving them up. Rat Bite is probably the best status effect in the game, so it's a shame you only get it so late. She makes a good Support Attacker, so good thing she starts with the skill.
Ignore Size is a separate skill in FMW3, so Nazrin is much more useful there. Clever Commander's effect was also changed to reducing Focus' cost to 10 SP, which is pretty crazy.

Battle theme: A Simple Family Unaffected by Rust (A Tiny, Tiny, Clever Commander)


Shou Toramaru
Personality: Strong-willed (Hit: +1, Kill: +4, Get Hit: +1, Ally Killed: +1, Graze: +1)
Personal Skills: Dazzling Gold (Gain 15% more Points), Protection of Bishamonten (at 120+ Power, x1.1 damage dealt)
Spirits: Luck, Strike, Grit

Despite her anemic moveset, Shou is actually pretty damn good. She does solid damage, tanks well enough with Grit, has Strike for the dodgier opponents, and can either be specced to rake in the cash or just do more damage. I'd say she's the overall best 2.0.
Protection of Bishamonten is basically Ryoma's Ace Bonus, so I hope that when Shou gets the Pagoda she goes full Getter. Altron is also acceptable.

Oh huh, you stopped playing. Okay, take five!

Huh? What happened to Akyuu? Well the MC this time is us, the Prismrivers. Were you shocked?

You guys are crazy lucky, getting to come to our live concert like this.

...Our performance has yet to start. We'll be heating things up from here.

Okay then, this is the Phantom Ensemble's Special Live: "Cherry Blossom Barrier Above the Clouds Part 1". I hope you enjoy it to the end.
