I decided to put my tablet pen down for once and get back to my License Challenge run. Picking up where I left off at Challenge 29, things were still as rage inducing as before. I couldn't beat Shun with Akira's linear attacks since he's constantly sidestepping, so I chose Jacky and spammed :1::H+K: over and over and over. Managed to bring down Shun's drink counter with :6::P::P::P: easily. I cleared the challenge and made it all the way to #35 : D

I had to take down Taka with 2x the amount of health than usual for 3 rounds. I decided to brave this challenge with Kage since I haven't used him in a while. It was a tedious fight, but I manage to come out on top after a crapload of attempts. This and the Shun challenge were cumbersome compared to the bones I've been tossed for #30-34. Now that I've cleared the 35th challenge, I'm now ranked A3!

My journey will be coming to a close soon, so I'm enjoying it while it lasts XD

After days and hours of grinding, I FINALLY did it! I've cleared Challenge #50 and fought Dural in the Space stage! And my oh my, it was such a glorious sight to behold~. I could have done it with Akira, but it was more fitting I brave the trial with the very first character I mained when I first started playing this game. El Blaze :cool:

It was simple. I had to win a basic Arcade route consisting of 10 matches back to back without losing. I've done it before in a legit Very Hard Arcade run with Akira before, so this shouldn't be a problem. Upon beating Dural in a one-sided bout of fisticuffs (with a side of grappling), I ranked up to A1, got a message saying I could change the difficulty on the route selection screen, then I was greeted with a giant sparkling logo congratulating me on clearing all the challenges. When the logo disappeared, I noticed something was... different.

There was a difficulty selection prompt at the bottom of the screen that, when opened by pressing Square, displays a menu with "Normal" and "Hard" as the available options. Out of curiosity I switch to Hard. All of a sudden the CLEAR icons at the side of the trials completely vanished! I then looked at my rank and noticed my rank progress below my license. "50/60". So it seems there are more licenses to obtain that's even higher than A1 Class :eek:

So should I put DoA5U on an even further hiatus and continue this journey or should I pack up my backs and come back home to DoA? Decisions decisions......

Congrats bro! Wow-I didn't know it continued beyond that! I say you keep going! You never know what you might find...

On that note, what do you guys think about Sarah's new details? About how she smokes, drinks tequila, etc...I think it makes her more "real". lol :sarah:
