Kenkou's Notes:
Spoiler: show
This race tends to be confused with the “witches” of Sabbath, but they are not those who were converted into witches at the hand of baphomets and Sabbath, instead these so-called “stray witches” are human women who possessed powerful monster-like desire and awakened as witches on their own. Due to their origins, since they don't belong to the organization called “Sabbath”, they are hedonistic and self-centered compared to the witches of Sabbath, and those guilty of something who are treated as “wicked witches” are actually these dark mages rather than the witches of Sabbath, or something to that effect.

Her tits are almost as ridiculously big as Sorcerer herself

That aside, her design is interesting, looking more like a tainted,more grown up version of a witch. she'll probably have dark, bewitching spells to lull men into their arms.

Can't wait for her translation in that case

I admit, my first thought when seeing her was "Angela?" from SD3...

THAT too. She looks quite a bit like Angela on her Magus class.

Makes me think of Nine's Redesign in Blazblue: Central Fiction.

Regardless I want her boobs in my face :nosebleed:

Well... Look at that, the perfect loophole for those who wanted to get it on with a witch without feeling guilty afterwards...

Well... Designwise she pretty much seems to be yet another "descendant" of Riviera the Promised Land's Cierra.

I'm sorry Kamitani sensei, your sorceress didn't make anything new...She just stole the spotlight from a lovely yet forgotten flame swallowed by time and ostracism.

Which is not bad I suppose... Having a perfect foil for witches would be a nice addition even if said niche is kind of trite and overused by today standards (like characters such as DC's Sorceress or Granblue's Narumeia have proved in the recent times).
I'll wait for the translated version to give my two cents, but if she ends up not being the kind, "ara ara" spouting big sister archetype character (clumsiness is optional yet welcome) I'll be EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED.

Oh dear, you are right. I wonder if she's soft. :XD:

Ah Riveria..the game Blake always urged me to play but I couldn't because the graphic style was not to my liking..

Cierra did put up the bar really high for this particular archetype, and of course I do have to agree with you that Cierra is incredibly adorable in every possible aspect (and as a bonus, she's redhead <3)... which shows how much of a great work the lads at Sting did back on their day.

Now it's a matter of time to see how proficient Kenkou is at replicating Cierra...Which truth to be told it makes me way more wary than eager to see the result.

Did you try out the PSP version? It had a massive improvement over the original. They even added more CGs to the bath scenes. :XD: :nosebleed:

Since the translation seems to be up in...that other site. I guess it's time to vent my spleen on Kenkou once again huh...

Hey guess what...

I'm EXTREMLY DISAPPOINTED

These lasses could not even be farther of the "kind and doting onee-san" archetype (which it's pretty much the polar opposite of the "clingy imouto" archetype Kenkou was somehow trying to allude with the witch), which is sad since this setting really needed one (his last attempt at that pretty much ended up being a self suggestionable spoiled princess instead) and this seemed a nice time to implement it.

In normal circumstances I would kinda liked (or at the very least tolerated) the "Machiavellian" approach he somehow tried to allude...AGAIN (We already have two buxom (and a pettanko) Machiavellian chicks... Did we really need yet another one?) and I don't think that the opposite of a clingy and selfish magical girl wannabe is a magically charged edgelord.

On an almost negligible bright side her design is visually appealing and the idea of them becoming "monsters" by osmosis is downright hilarious, which makes them a decent comic relief entry (until fanon fixes them that is) at the very least.

.P.S.:

...So poor at it that he's unable to even try it apparently.

Still better than anything the Sabbath has in it in my opinion.

You couldn't be anymore right with that. Just another energy source.

Just simply a busty variant to the other Witch. While she's got my preferred body shape her purpose is simply watered down along with the generic entries to acquire and display subservience.

This one got a translation update in that other site as apparently the last paragraph seemed to be wrong.
It's not like it makes the rest of the profile any better but I guess it would be wise to check it out and keep it up to date though.
