The day phase will now continue!

You may now vote on a second elimination for this day phase. However, the mafia have been invited to guess who the chosen elimination will be. If it turns out they chose correctly, then the mafia will determine the elimination in place of the majority decision, in a way similar to a Governor ability.

There is nothing stating it is a mafia ability in either the description of the role or in its execution.

If it is triggered automatically by Marcistar being elimed then yes it will clearly be a mafia ability though

You can fight me on anime taste whenever you like as per rule 15 in my game rules.
15. You may note that your role PM has a little "Meta" section at the bottom of it. That's where I've discussed a bit about the anime the pick originates from, as well as a little explanation of how the pick relates to the role. This is not game content. Everything else on a role PM could be relevant to the mechanical side of the game. Anything in the meta section will not be revealed by any roles in the game until flip. Players may ask me my opinions on isekai anime either publicly in thread or via PM whenever they like, and I will answer truthfully in uniform fashion, therefore my opinions on isekai anime should be considered public knowledge.

Meta:
I do like Tensura on balance; though I recognise that the second half of both seasons is really slow, the first half of both seasons is comparatively very good. I'll admit to also watching the spinoff series, Tensura Nikki, and further admit that the spinoff has probably been more influential on my design of this role than the main series- particularly the running gag with Gobta trying to attack him. That being said, I do like a good cool old swordmaster character like Hakurou, so I'd say this was a good pick.

I think on our side, marci's role is best used on day 1. Otherwise it is something of a time bomb where it gets better for town the longer the game goes on if marci is ever eliminated

Is it possible to spin this as being a town ability? Something like a double elim with an unknown drawback

Agree.


Woulda been funny if we'd both been Sophia's. I had Sophia from spider in my list.

Also mod for real though reading the light novels is the way to go. The condensed anime format loses so much metadata.

ESCPECIALLY for the longer running ones like heck. Smartphone is literally twenty volumes past the animation and fixed a lot of issues.

Meta:
How not to Summon a Demon Lord is, however I look at it, generic isekai trash. I do like isekai trash, even the generic stuff, so that's not to say it's a particularly bad thing. But it is what it is, and it will never be more than that. Rem as a character kind of suffers from being a generic harem girl that doesn't show any exceptional power, but fortunately for me in designing this role PM she does have the soul of a demon king sealed inside of her. This could be a difficult role to play, but I'm sure it'll be fun no matter what.

my opinion on this:
if i use it without letting town know theyll draw the conclusion its mafia,
it could probably be spun as town if i did the right things, but im not confident i would be able to pull that off, and they might question why im using it d1? it would need to be planned well imo.

Are mafia allowed to guess "no elimination" and redirect that?

It's a safe assumption shiro is around and in the game.

Yeah.

Would town be allowed to ask you "Could mafia have chosen no elimination?" and be obliged an answer, or no, since they don''t know the whole role the way we do?
