    Perceval is probably the most awkward part of their decision to change every Blade's name for the dub. The guy is _aggressively_ japanese in design, giving him the name of a Round Table knight is like if you took a magical european broadsword and called it the Masamu- god damn it.

      not to mention in Arthurian lore that Perceval was the only guy able to find the Holy Grail twice. His whole character traits were being innocent and caring for others, really only getting into trouble because of how naive the guy was. So not only does his design not fit his element doesn't make any sense either.

      Life would be very different if I grew up with Frog wielding Grandleon rather than Masamune.
      More relevant, though, Perceval's name in Japanese is Vasara (ヴァサラ), which, curiously, is still not Japanese. Vasara is the Lithuanian and Latvian word for summer, likely tying to his fire-aesthetics. Vasara is also a Finnish word for hammer, which is so far away it likely wasn't intended. If anyone can make a solid connection between the word or name/word Vasara and samurai, please correct me. Its quite puzzling that, to alter his name, they went with a name so heavily rooted in English folklore.
      EDIT: I've found the connection. Vasara is a corruption of basara (婆裟羅) a Japanese word meaning "acting without restraint; self-indulgence" or "being pretentious" (source of definition: jisho.org [please use this over Google translate please and thank you]). Vasara as a variant or corruption of basara was popularized by the 2000 arcade shoot 'em up Vasara (that was the Japanese name, not just a localized form). I didn't notice the connection at first because I really haven't seen the word outside of the kabuki-influenced class in Fire Emblem Fates, and the actual intention of using a "v" sound in the katakana (v isn't in the phonetics of Japanese, so they often will use b's or sometimes f's to substitute the sound. The use of ヴァ (va) caught me off guard)
      So yeah, sorry for the misinformed statement at first. I should've taken more time to research.

      Congrats! When I first played the game, she was my 1st or 2nd rare blade. Back then I was super frustrated at the game (it felt slow, the maps felt bad, I wasn't invested in the characters at the point where you can first summon). I had no idea how rare or atrong she was. I eventually restarted and came to absolutely adore the game, but in every playthrough since I have never gotten Kos-Mos. I am cursed to never have her lol.

    Xenoblade Chronicles 2 fun fact of the day number 23:
    Throughout the game, there are enemies referred to as 'story exclusive enemies'. These are enemies that are only ever fought as a story objective, but are not bosses- more like a mini boss, or acting as assistants to a boss. These enemies appear on every Titan that has regular spawning enemies on it except for the current Titan in the story; there are no such enemies on Uraya.

      I think there are story exclusive enemies in a certain dark ether cannon's sidequest in Uraya? And although most OHKO skills say they don't effect unique enemies/story-related enemies, Perceval can still OHKO them. I was super confused about all that; it happened to me during my playthrough of that quest. Maybe I'm mistaken and there might be a difference between quest exclusive and story exclusive.

    *XBC2 Blade Trivia*
    Perceval's English VA is Kerry Shale. Not too many big roles in the VA industry except... in Thomas and friends! *cough....
    Anyways, his Japanese VA, Kenn, has a lot more memorable roles in his 16 years of voice acting:
    - Jaden Yuki (Yu-Gi-Oh! GX)
    - Kouki (Digimon Data Squad)
    - Phinks (Hunter X Hunter)
    - Apollo (Ace Attorney)
    - Hummel (Ys. VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana)
    - Leopold Vermillion (Black Clover)
    - Secco (Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: Golden Wind)
    Perceval's Japanese name is Vasara (ヴァサラ), probably a play on the word Basara, which is term used for Japanese aesthetics which are normally associated with traditional ideals during the Muromachi period which is kind like a medieval period of Japan with samurai and the such.
    Another theory I have about the name Vasara, is that in Finnish it means hammer. Perceval is on the side of justice, so he brings the hammer of justice upon his enemies and criminals. Kind of a stretch considering there is another Blade who is more suited for the name....

    Due to how Fonsa Myma’s all the way at the other end of the Urayan Titan’s belly from where Garfont Village is, Uraya’s probably the first big area you’re going to explore in earnest as opposed to Gormott where you only really needed to explore parts of it in order to progress. Both the high road and the low road depending on where you go from the Eight-Rock Skip have enemies in their 20s, so taking either path should be manageable. However both roads will meet up at Yurna the Elderwood (and both routes also have a UM. The one on the lower road is a Blant Driver). No getting around this next bit.
    Things Emile Missed:
    -At Old -Valentia- Valantia (the tree area where Emile dropped a ladder), walk opposite of the ladder towards Mercenary HQ, but don’t drop down to ground level. You want to jump down into a series of pools, the last of which has an Underground Spring. Passing the Water Mastery Lv 2 and Fortitude Lv 1 check will take you right to the spring other side for another location and a treasure trove with a Steel Chip, a Common Core Crystal, and some gold.
    -By Cunning Saggie’s grave marker is an excavation point that she was standing over (briefly shown twice on screen). Unearthing it requires Earth Mastery Lv 1 and Focus Lv 1, but if you manage to dig it up, inside you’ll find a Common Core Crystal, a Critical Up I aux core, and a pretty sum of gold.
    By the way, did you know that Turters has his own Twitter account?
    twitter.com/Turters?s=20
    3:31 The telltale red flash of a Rare Blade!
    I didn’t think Emile would be cheering for Perceval considering he shares the same weakness Electra and Finch do aux core wise, but I like Perceval regardless.
    4:31 Yeah, no, Perceval may have an eye for justice, but it’s not Keen enough for that. His skills lie in Dark Mastery, Leaping, and Assassination, the latter being a skill exclusive to him.
    Don’t worry too much about that chest. It only has a common core crystal, some gold, and a Specials Lv 3 aux core.
    6:10 Hey, the one Rare Blade you got excited about before Perceval also only has one aux core slot. You just gotta learn to make do.
    It is tradition to kill the Mayne Driver any time you step into Torigoth. I’m glad Emile’s partaking in it.
    Zuo also has something else to say at the Training Grounds.
    7:32 No duh, you’re fighting without any weapons, let alone any Blades.
    8:52 I like how immediately after you just said you don’t want the art that would increase aggro on Rex that you do like the art that benefits from Rex having increased aggro. Like, what?
    9:17 Like his Field Skill Assassination implies, Perceval’s greatest strengths come from felling as many enemies in battle as possible. He may not move like Jin did aboard that Titan Battleship, but he’s no slouch either.
    10:52 Long story short, Crowd Control is Perceval’s specialty. Ironically given his appearance and Assassination ability, not so good with one-on-one combat.
    14:43 Thanks, I hate it.
    15:42 If you need to work on these easily, go back to Argentum, remove every party member but the one with the Blade you want to finish an enemy with, and go to town on the low level Krabble on the bottom floor. Skip Travel to respawn as necessary.
    17:48 You’re pretty much required to break open this dam as it’s blocking the way forward (staying low and going into Fonsa Myma Waters, not only does that have a lot of high level monsters (30s-70s), but there’s no way to get up to Fonsa Myma from that direction. If you tried staying high and avoiding Yurna the Elderwood, you’ll arrive at the dam from the other side but won’t be able to break it open).
    18:32 Or you can be a dirty cheater and glitch your way through. Won’t be getting the chest though, but it’s a speed running tactic I suppose.
    22:55 That’s some shrewd business sense right there. Better hope his faith pays off.
    23:45 Sounds Noponic.
    26:32 It’s Monolith Soft’s bread and butter.

    When you got the Boreas silhouette, I remember I got Boreas as my first truly random rare blade, and I thought he was just a common and wasn't excited until I saw it was rare. I used one of the overdrive protocols to give it to Nia since it's a decent healer.

This isn't the worst thing since Rex does have a Break Art on Chroma Katana's, but since I'm still relying on auto-attacks for a good portion of my damage at this point in the game, I'm really not benefitting from Newt's ability to draw aggro from them. Newt's ideal time will come later.
    Also, I don't know if Chugga missed it, but there's a BIG GOLD treasure chest on the giant tree at the Crown of Sanctuary. You can see it on the top left corner of the video at 26:57. It has a Classic Medal, which heals you if you deal out a critical hit.

      Heck even Indol is full of refugees that (apparently) no one wants to really help.
      Uraya, on the other hand, has enough resources for themselves (without the war effort anyways, because if they weren't fearing an invasion they'd be fine) and a land filled with people who love being helpers to humanity.
      Its not much of a stretch to see why people outside might be envious of them.

      Unless she rules from a military airship, which probably isn't the best look... and doesn't explain how she reaches the secret area, considering where its located.

    Hey Chugga, great video, I'm loving the series! I decided to start playing along and I noticed something while bringing the pollen orbs to Umon's titan before leaving Gormott that I'm not sure if you knew. If you go back to Masrah Spring at high tide and swim past where the titan was, you can find both a red AND white treasure trove on separate platforms past where the titan was. And afterward, I decided to swim out as far as I could go and I found out you can swim out really far at high tide. You'll eventually run into a hidden wall but you can just swim off the titan and you won't die. If you swim out to the edge of the map, you'll get a really good view of Melnath moving (although the clouds can sometimes make it hard to see). Like the head looks really cool as it moves quite a bit so it really shows how alive the titans are. Melnath has really cool blue eyes and looks pretty chill. I would check it out next time you go to Gormott. Keep up the great work! :)

    Heyo! It's Perceval! One of my personal favorites too! I remember I summoned Perceval on my first summoning session after getting the next party member after Vandham, and avoiding spoilers, Chroma Katanas in general are REALLY GOOD on that Driver.
    Speaking of Rare Blades, I'm wondering if Chugga's gonna summon Ursula before he beats the game. Her Blade quest is regarded as one of the WORST and LONGEST ones in the game, and I was fortunate to pull her pretty early in my first playthrough, and I was able to have her affinity chart at least completely unlocked by the time I beat the game.
    Episode Highlight 23: 19:35 and 21:00 Actually getting Perceval's Executor skill off. I'll be honest, I forgot Perceval had this 1% chance skill. Great for the main game, but it kinda falls off in usefulness in the postgame, where I'm sure we'll be spending a LOT of time.
