But even if they get hit from far, they won't get pulled in close enough for the damaging part. But how good is it for okizeme or wake up set ups?
It depends on the distance they are. The best way to use it is to block the opponent against a corner and use it when they can't run away from the back.
I don't think it would work for okiseme though, since there is a small delay after you do it and the opponent has time to attack you or run away before you cast the spell.
But anyway, the gameplay system makes it so hard to get 100% popularity that you'll have almost no chance to place it in pvp, so I'm not even trying to learn how to use them optimally since I'll probably never use it. Sadly.
Can anyone identify any of the creatures in Mamizou's attacks, particularly her Last Word? The only one I can figure out for sure is Saigyou Ayakashi. I don't know my Japanese monsters that well.
Sure, I personally recognized some Karakasa, Chouchinobake, Tsurube-otoshi and Nurikabe, maybe I'm forgetting some.
For he spellcards, the one with the kettle is a reference to the Bunbuku Chagama myth.
The spell with the big gate, I never had time to identify every youkai since I didn't used the spell a lot and it's quite fast, but I recognized some onis, the famous youkai Oiwa, and many others... (if someone takes a screenshot of the spell, I could identify more, since I love all the japanese folklore and mythology and read a lot of things about it.)
