Spoilers will only happen if you read from the bottom of the FAQ heading

1.INTRODUCTION  +
________________+

Luminous Arc 2 (hereinafter referred to as LA2) is the sequel to the first
game, Luminous Arc (LA1), but in name only. So far no story references were
made to the first game. But there are several cameos of the LA1 characters,
as well as being able to use Alice and Theresa, who make the bestest cakes.
According to them anyways. *SPOILERS* Apparently, these LA1 characters
came from "another dimension", according to Vanessa, one of the cameos.
And according to her she seems to be into little boys, or "shouta's".
Note that you may see Yugo, although I distinctly remember his name being
"Hugo".

Somewhat following the tradition of LA1, there are "intermissions" between
chapters, following the story sequence after a battle. These intermissions
are conversations between characters that had a heart over their character
icon in the pre-battle character selection screen. These conversations shed
more light into the characters or their feelings throughout the battle
against the forces of evil.

What doesn't follow the tradition is that in LA1 you could converse with
any character that you can intermission with as long as they participated
in the previous battle. In LA2 on the pre-battle character selection screen
you can ONLY intermission with a character as long as their character icon
has a heart on the top right corner of it, and only in specific chapters.
This means that if you want to converse with a character be sure to select
them when their icon has that heart on it. You cannot converse with a
character who did not participate in the battle, or if they had no heart
over their icon in the pre-battle character selection screen. Final
Intermission is an exception, though. More on that later. Also not with
the tradition is that there is a set number of Success's you must get
in LA1 in order to finish up the Intermission. In LA2 it seems to depend
entirely on who's heart is filled the most for them to appear in their
Final Intermission (the game gave me 5 characters to choose from in
the Final Intermission).

________________________:
2.HOW TO USE FAQ        :
________________________:


Intermission conversations have 3 levels of success, if you include the
lowest rating as a success at all. How it works:

-Normal Break. Blue bar. It's normal. That's it. Not great, not poor... Just..
-Good Break. Yellowish bar. Means you need to work more on your pick-up lines.
-Best Break. Pinkish bar with glitter brandishing the sides. Means you're one
step away from winning the heart and soul of the character in question. But
at the end of the day they're still a virtual character, remember that.
Getting the Best Break won't win you any points on the internet as well.
No downloadable content. No bragging rights. Sorry.

What it all means:
-Normal Break means you chose the wrong 1st choice, which sort of means you
just had a minimal conversation with the character. This means that you only
saw half or nothing at all of the (intended) conversation. Confirmed that it
won't budge that FP heart meter.

-Good Break means you chose the correct 1st choice but failed at the second
choice. But don't worry, you still get second place. But it isn't first place
so who settles for second? (Fills FP heart at half the pace)

-Best Break means you chose the correct 1st choice and followed that with the
correct 2nd choice. This will give you the maximum obtainable heart filling
pinkness required to fill that FP heart meter. It will also give you a great
sense of satisfaction and the potential to scream at the top of your lungs
"YES! I AM THE WINRAR!" (Faster way to fill the FP heart.)

Let's pretend the system is like points, similar to the LA1 intermission
FAQ by xNinjaOfChaosx:

Normal break = 0
Good Break   = 1
Best Break   = 2

Unconfirmed since once again not all the characters have the same amount
of intermission's as others.

From what I know, there is no intermission count that is the same for all the
characters. The game was made in a way that you can only intermiss with a
character in certain chapters only, not all chapters. This means that some
characters may have only 3 intermissions available, some may have 1, some may
have 25, etc....

So to move on with it, to go to a specific character, highlight the full
titles of whatever you want to go to in the TABLE OF CONTENTS and paste it
in the search function of whatever you are using to read this FAQ.

Example:

To find Rina's section, highlight:

-5.01

then press CTRL+C or right click then select "copy" and paste it in the search
function of whatever you are using to read this and then press enter.

Rules of engagement:
-First rule of thumb, flatter the character! That means you have to get on
their good side. How do you get on their good side?
-All the characters have different traits, ie Rina wants you to be nice to
her, Rasche is an idiot, Fatima is a Tsundere, etc.

I would go on, but... Gee, this guide blows all that out of the pond.

3.FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS PART1    }
______________________________________}
Q: Who are you?
A: http://themangatron.blogspot.com/

Q: What kind of answer is that?
A: One link equals a thousand words. Or billions in the case of Wikipedia.

Q: Why did you make this guide?
A: Because I love girls. I want myself and potential offspring to make the
right choice on "how to maximize the heart of a girl in Luminous Arc 2".

Joking aside, the real truth is alot more embarressing than you'd think. As
I did my first playthrough, I reached the final intermission, and with all
giddy-ness conversed with the girls I wanted to. Of all the dynamite-blowin'
in-my-face guilty gearing, melty bloody hell blimey-ness, it went in this
order:

-Talked to Althea, result was "motion denied"
-Talked to Luna, got her CG
-Talked to Fatima, got her CG

And of those 3, none of them had a full FP heart. Rina, the one I stayed
true to, had her heart maxed out and whaddaya know, I ignored her.
I feel like that manga character who fell in love with a girl, didn't
confess and cried, watching as she heads into the setting sun with another
man...

Q: There are male intermissions too you know....
A: I harbour no feelings whatsoever for the male intermissions. But for the
sake of completion, I will include them in this guide.

Q: Why did you rename this guide to "Intermissions Guide"?
A: Endings stuff goes in the endings guide, Intermissions stuff goes here.
Ah, so you'll still have to make a choice, lol...

Q: What is the Final Intermission?
A: It is where you've reached the point in the game where the intermission
breaks will end. During this time, you can only select 3 of the X number
of characters whose hearts were filled the most and converse with them
to obtain the CG.

Q: Which route should I take?
A: Which girl do  you like?

Q: I meant which route is harder?
A: I'll say that Fatima's route is harder, but that may be a preference.
I think I've played the game quite too much to not realize what is
tough and what isn't...

Q: You mentions "runs" a lot. Baseball fan much?
A: I use that as a shortened version of "play-through", in other words
one run is a completed game from Prologue to chapter 30.

Q: I knew it! You're The mangatron! THE Lolitron!
A: www.fbi.gov

4.CHARACTERS         #
_____________________#

Here is some short descriptions of the characters you will converse with.
Be warned as most, if not all the characters do not have last names so I
took the liberty of giving them nicknames. Unofficial nicks. Girl's cup sizes
are in japanese sizes for now until a person with the english artbook can
submit the american sizes.

Name: Roland
Nickname: Emmerich
Age: 17
Height: 168 cm (5 feet 5 inches)
Random game quote: "Althea..."
Who: The protagonist. Coverboy. Man of many....witches.
mangatron observation: If you played the japanese version of Luminous Arc2,
you may have recognized his voice, or if you are fan enough of anime it's
no surprise, the voice actor (VA) who played Roland is the same one for Kazuma
from the series "Scry-ed" and more famously the VA for Kira Yamato from
"Gundam Seed" and its sequel. So it is true. Kira, who couldn't have his harem
in Gundam Seed becomes a master in Luminous Arc 2 and engages in magical
activities with the witches. Great choice on the VA, Marvelous/ImageEpoch!

Name: Rina
Nickname: Lina (uh... lol)
Age: ??
Height: 156 cm (5 feet 1 inch)
Bust size: B or C
Random game quote: "Brother..."
Who: A Knight trainee serving alongside Roland and Rasche
mangatron observation: According to Kaito Shibano, who said "She
had long hair at first, but then we decided to put a hat on her and give
her short hair...", you'll know as you play the game that she indeed has
short hair. But, as if it cliche-ingly followed some manga and anime, she
apparently had longer hair at first, storywise. *SPOILERS* you will be
able to see this in her Final Intermission CG.

Name: Rasche
Nickname: Rash, Itch, pain in the butt, etc
Age: 19
Height: 174 cm (5 feet 7 inches)
Random game quote: "Yeah, right, man." (sorry lol that may be Leon's quote
from LA1)
Who: Appretice Knight serving alongside Roland and Rina, Roland's older bro
mangatron observation: Seriously, just like Leon from Luminous Arc 1 this
guy has a slow Attack Order (when he gets to move) or low mov. Giving him
exp means having to nerf the entire squad to lag behind along with him.
Whoever said "with great power comes great responsibility", they were
right since this darn Rasche has the responsibility to catch up with
the rest of the team members...

Name: Althea
Nickname: Alty (thank you MR. Webmaster for LA2 website)
Age: 16
Height: 154 cm (5 feet)
Bust size: B
Random game quote: "I saw you looking at Fatima before..."
Who: Ember Witch in-training, digivolves later on
mangatron observation: For an Ember based Witch, she sure has an odd taste
in fashion. For instance, what are those two cotton balls atop her chest?
Why does her staff/wand look like it is made of feathers? Why does she look
so..... fuzzy.... never mind, I'm thinking too much. Oh, she has an Ahoge...
(the strand of hair atop her head)

Name: Dia
Nickname: Dialga (I can't help but put that there XD)
Age: ??
Height: ??
Bust size: D
Random game quote: "Master ki- Roland."
Who: The Brilliant Witch, user of Light based Magic
mangatron observation: GameFaqs member TracySmith noted how does Steiner sit
with those swords stowed behind his back. I say, how does Dia sit with that
monstrosity of a book behind her back. This book is Xbox huge, it reaches
as far down to her thighs, which she has nice legs by the way. You can
bet she's wearing a garter. Ahem, anyways, as a user of light magic she is
sure to have a well lit living quarters. Infinite Energy :P Nice tie too.
I recall the japanese voice actress calls Roland "Shounen", basically
means "young boy". So much for "kid"...

Name: Pip (Phillip)
Nickname: Pipsqueak
Age: ??
Height: ??
Hat size: XBOX Hueg
Random game quote: "You... You donkey!" (LOL it's true)
Who: Cooking Master boy (sorry lol, he's a Wizard) and younger (twin?) of Pop
mangatron observation: From what I know, Pip and Pop are twins. So how does
Pip have that englander type of accent? Pop shan't have it too, mate?
Alas, this young boy fights with his mixing ladel. If Chef Emeril saw this,
he'd hang his head in shame....

Name: Kaph
Nickname: Nikolai the Second
Age: ??
Height: ??
Random game quote: "Inspiration!"
Who: Lurking, stalking fan of the Witches, a Journalist
mangatron observation: This guy is alot like me back in the day when
I was an intensive anime viewer. Seriously. No joke. (Yooo~ Joe!)

Name: Luna
Nickname: Lunatone (sorry for the pokemon reference again lol)
Age: ??
Height: ??
Bust size: F
Random game quote: *gulp* *gulp* *gulp*
Who: The Tide Witch, user of detergent er Water based magic
mangatron observation: At first you'd think she's a ditz. Then when you hear
her voice you'd think she's absent minded. But I bet you didn't think about
that. See, I bet you looked straight at that rack of hers. Who wouldn't?
I know I did ;) She also has a nice wallpaper from the main site. Where
is that one scene from, JC Staff? (smile) For best enjoyment, talk to her
during the Hot Spring Kopin termination battles. She goes "Aaahhh..."

Name: Pop (Potpourri)
Nickname: Populi (again, thank you Mr. Marvelous Webmaster)
Age: ??
Height: ??
Bust size: A
Random game quote: "What? How dare you! Apologize to the crabs!"
Who: The Nature/Verdure Witch, user of... Mother Nature magic
mangatron observation: She likes crabs. She hates people who bash crabs.
Shouldn't she be worried about global warming, or litterbugs, or fuel
efficient Moose creations? Maybe that pacifistic way of life made her that
way. Her staff is huge. If you've seen the official art, she could very
well curl up like a hedgehog and hide in the tip of it. The Petal. Wowsers.

Name: Sadie
Nickname: Saty (You Mr. Marvelous Webmaster you...)
Age: loli (seriously, she doesn't look her age, mentioned this in the game)
Height: ??
Bust size: B (no delicious flat chest for you)
Random game quote: "How do you like the music?"
Who: The Breeze Witch, user of Wind based magic
mangatron observation: I seriously think her name is a play on the word
"Sadist", as she likes to fight, or rather fight strong people. She seems
to enjoy it too, so go figure. Now if you've also seen the official art
for her, you'll note how freaking large her trumpet is. And yet in the
game she lifts it to her lips and jazzes up. I want one of those...

Name: Josie (& the Pussycats) :P
Nickname: Meowth (sorry again for pokemon ref, seriously it's saying I
have to reference it lol)
Age: Left For Dead undead living cat
Height: 80 cm (2 feet 6 inches)
Random game quote: "Meow" (okay maybe not random, more like ALWAYS)
Who: a Familiar who serves the Master
mangatron observation: If you've played the japanese version, you'll see
why I just can't help but compare him to Meowth from Pokemon. But, if
you have watched the japanese version of the Pokemon anime as well, you'll
get the big picture. Here goes: both Josie and Meowth have a similar
sounded voice actor. Both say "nya", usually at the end of their sentences.
Both are talking cats. Both hang around a girl. Both smile alot. Shall
I go on?

Name: Karen
Nickname: Kallen Kouzuki
Age: ??
Height: ??
Bust size: C
Random game quote: "I'll follow you out of the castle,
but only because you begged!"
Who: Thief, leader of the Rosetta Rosso
mangatron observation: If you were wondering why the choice of game quote,
that's because in all honesty, she's a Tsundere(see Frequently asked
questions part2). But in reality, it's more than that. If you played the
japanese version, you may have heard that voice before. That's because
the voice actress has also played Tsundere-type characters in anime,
most notably Shana from Shakugan no Shana and more popularly Louise
Valliere from Zero No Tsukaima. It's no surprise why Karen exhibits
those Tsundere type qualities throughout the game. And she carries a gun.
A reeeeeeal big gun. If you've seen the official art you'll see that
the handle of the revolver-type gun is much large than her grip. How does
she fire such a monstrosity? I don't think two hands'll help either...
Dynamic Tension? The NRA smiles upon her that's for sure.

Name: Fatima
Nickname: Fatimajokko a la mode
Age: 19
Height: 160 cm (5 feet 2 inches)
Bust size: E
Random game quote: "Master...."
Who: The Shadow Frost Witch, user of the darkest, coldest, type of magic.
mangatron observation: Okay... let's get this straight. She has an E cup.
19 years old. 5 feet 2 inches. Get where I'm headed? If i recall correctly,
girls hit puberty at 12 (I know I'm wrong) but how on gods green earth
does she get an E cup in 7 years? It took Queen Sophia 25 years to hit
the F cup range. Can you imagine, if its true girls puberty is at 12, letter
sizes from A to E, she grew a size an estimated 1 every year and a half!
At 15 she's in C cup range! 17 a D! She's not much higher over 5 feet!
She has no friends! She's a loner! She's Tsundere! She likes Grandpa's!
She hates skimpy kinky clothes! RAAAAAWWWRRRRGGGHHHH!

And these characters added just for fun:

Name: Ayano
Nick: Oneechan (daisukeeeeeeee! XD )
Age: None. Seriously.
Height: Never budged apparently
Bust size: Looks to be Fatima-grade.
Who: Fortune cookie. Actually Althea's sister. Or actually not. Women...
mangatron observation: Okay... according to the game she's been around for
more than 4000 years. Never aged. Never wrinkled. Ok, read that again.
Did it settle in yet? WHAT HAS SHE BEEN DOING ALL THAT TIME?!? Imagine
all the guys she could've dated, all the land she could've bought, how
the people could've worshipped her longevity... But wait, that's not
important. She had that hot body for more than four millenia? She stayed
a D-E-F cup for more than four 1000 year sessions? HOT DAMN! Imagine
how many children, grandchildren, Great-grandchildren, Uber-grandchildren,
Alpha-grandchildren, and Omega-grandchildren she could've had! Pick me!

Name: Sophia
Nick: Sofia
Age: 25
Height: 166 cm (5 feet 4 inches)
Bust size: F(reaking huge)
Who: Queen. With no King in sight, apparently....
mangatron observation: In the Japanese version, she is voiced by none
other than Rie Tanaka, more popularly known as the Voice Actress for
Lacus Clyne from Gundam Seed and its sequel. When you have Kira and Lacus
in the same game, you know something went right somewhere. Hearing the
Queen speak to Roland was golden. Now, onto the official art. She carries
a staff. Right. Or a sceptre. Whatever you say, I think it looks like a
weapon. Maybe she's an unlockable character... Doesn't she ever get cold
wearing that formal dress? Fatima doesn't count because she is the cold
itself. Ah, it's good to be alive these days...

5.1 INTERMISSIONS:        /
_________________________/

For the love of the girl, Rina will go first. Take that, you silly-Rasche-
who-is-second-on-the-list-of-characters-to-select and also second on the
list of the character status screen available in the menu option on the
world map screen. Why in Zeus's lightning does Rasche already have a little
bit pinkness in that FP heart at the first intermission chance? Hmm....

Note: This guide will assume you chose to converse with said character in the
order that their intermission hearts are available in the pre-battle
character selection screen on the chapter they are available. The chapters
will be listed when the character is able to be conversed with.

This guide was made while taking the Fatima route. Please keep that in mind.

Disclaimer: I am not responsible for any errors you may have encountered
while using my guide, as mistakes do happen and some errors are missed.
I am also not responsible for a "Good Break" or a "Normal Break" you may
have gotten when following my guide as mistakes do happen and some errors
are missed. To avoid headaches, always remember to save before
completing the mission objective (ie, "Defeat XXX"). You can check the
mission objective by tapping on the "Start" icon on the lower right corner
of the touch screen and tapping on the icon that looks like two arrows
crossing each other (the icon second from the left).

NOTE: If you are playing the game for the first time, and you're gunning for
a Fatima ending while gunning for Althea's Intermissions, it is highly
unlikely that you will budge Althea's FP heart meter due to the ending
paths for both characters. Althea's FP heart meter is attached to the ending
choices you make before certain chapters. So don't be surprised if her heart
didn't go anywhere if you're going for a Fatima ending, Althea's heart fills
the fastest on her ending. For further info on the endings, check out my
Endings guide also on GameFaqs by me, einsteinecker AKA The mangatron.

NOTE: if you read the note on Althea's Intermission choices, you'll know that
Fatima as well has her FP heart meter attached to the pre-battle choices you
select in certain chapters. This is part of the reason why Fatima only has 2
intermissions available, as it is best to dedicate 1 play through on a
combined Fatima ending+Intermissions choices to fill her FP heart. One cannot
fill up Fatima's heart on Intermissions alone while playing an Althea ending
4 times, supposing you are intending to play this game only 4 times for 100%
Rate completion. For further info on Fatima's ending, I suggest you check out
my Endings guide by me, einsteinecker AKA The mangatron.

This section of the FAQ was created to have the intermissions listed
by chapter, in case you don't want to bounce from one character to
another using the above guide. This way you'll know who can chat in
which chapter, great for reading while playing. Note that this section
may contain errors, although that may be unlikely. How it works:

-The first line is the first group of choices.
-The second line is the second set of choices.

Then we read the above as:

-The correct answer will be listed by number.
-The numbering is from top to bottom (Descending order).

6.27 INTERMISSION COMBINATIONS FOR THE 4 PLAYTHROUGHS     >
__________________________________________________________>

(This section of the guide is for going through ALL the Intermission
conversations for the 12 characters and obtaining the CG's in only
4 playthroughs)

This will require 4 playthrough's of the game, starting with a new game, then
new game+ (that is, load your completed file and it will automatically start
the beginning), then beat that new game+, and load that completed game for a
new game+ again, repeat until you've played 4 times in total. I must stress
again that this is not entirely for getting the CG's, but rather fully
completing the intermissions for the 12 characters.

Now what the deal is, which 3 would you start with? That depends on you, just
don't mix and mash your set choices here and there. If you're going to
complete Rina's entire intermission conversations, always select her when she
is available (A heart shows on the characters icon when selecting characters
to use in battle, story battles only). Don't pass her up and talk to someone
else, you'll make things harder and ultimately would have to play more than
4 times to complete the game. So far:

-This section of the guide is for fully completing the story driven
Intermissions for the 12 characters in only 4 playthroughs.
-Keep in mind that talking to all 12 characters in their Final Intermission
is crucial for completing the game in only 4 runs.

If you've followed my Chapter Based guide, you'll know doing 1 character's
intermission won't let you do another (1 intermission per chapter only). Also
keep in mind that both the "Save Fatima" route and "Escape" route of
chapter 22 have different Intermission's available, but it doesn't stop there
because those differences change a lot of things as well. Here is a brief
rundown of the changes:

-Dia and Sadie are in Chapter 23 in the "Save Fatima" route of Chapter 22
-Althea and Luna are in Chapter 23 in the "Escape route" of Chapter 22
-Doing one of the witches listed above will cancel out the other witches,
remember, one intermission per chapter!

Q: The hell am I supposed to do!?
A: That's what my guide is for. To guide you to new heights. Unfortunately,
due to the way the game was made, this is the only feasible combination of
characters I can come up with, keeping in mind by participating in every and
all intermissions of each of the 3 characters in one playthrough. Here's the
list of characters:


-1. Rina, Luna, Fatima (Must be done by choosing "Escape route" in chapter 22)
-2. Kaph, Althea, Pop (Must be done by selecting "Escape route" in chapter 22)
-3. Dia, , Pip, Josie (This must be done by taking the "Save Fatima" Route in
chapter 22)
-4. Sadie, Rasche, Karen (This must be done by selecting the "Save Fatima"
route in chapter 22)

Do in whatever order you so desire, ie 4, then 1, then 2 etc.

Remember that you will only need to talk to a character's Final Intermission
once! Don't talk to the same person twice, otherwise you will have to do a
5th run of the game just to do that last Final Intermission of said skipped
character.

In case it wasn't apparent, you NEED to select 3 characters of your choice for
Final Intermission. So far I have not been able to select only 2 out of an
available 5, or 6, etc. Of course if you have only 2 characters to select in
Final Intermission then something went wrong along the way. Don't skip
Intermissions!

8.FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS PART2    *
______________________________________*

Q: What is a Tsundere?
A: I'll give you the basic version from more than 4 years ago. Nowadays
the young generation is ruining the definition. This is what I remember:
Tsundere is an Otaku combination of two words, "Tsun" and "Dere", meaning
"A belligerent attitude exhibited towards the object of affection, usually
in public" and "A soft spoken attitude towards the object of affection,
usually in private" in that order respectively. While I feel I am wrong a
bit, that was quite many years ago and all my data is in the USA. If you've
heard otherwise, it either got bastardized or the term got twisted over
the years. To see what I mean, just search the above question online. I
stand by this meaning though, it was straight from the mouth of an Otaku
in Japan. In short "Tsundere" is mostly used to describe girls who are
angry or mean in public, but in private they exhibit a more soft spoken,
caring side to the object of their affection. It seems though it is not
tied down to that definition entirely....

Q: Althea's FP heart isn't filled after following your guide! RAWR
A: You didn't read it properly. More specifically, didn't read this part:
"-5.03 ALTHEA"

Q: Where's the rest of the Full Conversations?
A: Coming in a later update, if you took a gander at it you'll realize
how complete it is. (Read: walls of text)

Q: "Intermiss" is not a word.
A: I know. My Lexisgoo Pocket PC Dictionary doesn't have it. Kind of like
how the word "shat" is not in it as well.

Q: Dia has a bit of pinkness in her FP heart during the Chapter 5
Intermission as well.
A: It must be the game's way of keeping track of how much is left to it.

Q: Althea goes second in the list of characters in the pre-battle
selection screen in Chapter 8.
A: There hasn't been a question 3 times already. Stop dousing my Rasche
flaming.... flames.

Q: Can I submit scripts for the Full Intermission Conversations?
A: Maybe, yeah. I pretty much memorized it all so I'd confirm their
validity myself. Any help would be appreciated, I understand now why it took
Atlus USA nearly half a year to localize this game.

Q: I found a typo. Where do I report it?
A: In my Intermission FAQ WIP thread at GameFaqs in the message board for
Luminous Arc 2. Link is:

animangatron.blogspot.com/2010/02/luminous-arc-2-intermission-guide-post.html


Q: Your guide is mussed up! I got a Good Break instead of Best Break!
A: Please report the character and chapter in question to the above link.
FAQ will then be updated at an unspecfied time.

Q: What is the "Hot Spring Kopin Termination" battles?
A: Hmm, at present there is no guide on that, but it involves cameo's
by characters from Luminous Arc 1. *SPOILERS* The story is, Cecille and
Yugo(Hugo) are trying to make some dough by operating a chain of Hot
Springs throughout LA2 Land. Unfortunately, Vanessa is hogging the hot
springs all to herself, sicking Kopin's to whoever gets in her way. As it
stands, it's bad for business and all, so Roland and party agree to help
rid the world of Kopin evil in exchange for free use of the hot springs.
The battles are tough as you progress, but getting to see Dia, Luna,
Fatima and the other witches in bathing suits was enough to invigorate me
er I mean is worth the brain wracking :P To enter these battles, this will
be available after chapter 23. Go to the Hemill ruins and "Gather info".
After that go back to it again to begin the T-1000 missions.

Q: Will you make a guide for the Hot Spring Kopin Terminations?
A: That's up in the air for now. Maybe after my 13th playthrough I may not
might consider thinking about potentially sort of doing it eventually.

Q: Huh?
A: Sorry. lol.

Q: I noticed throughout the guide that your nick "mangatron" is not caps.
A: It's the way I intended it to be written. I personally request everyone
to not capitalize my nick/pseudonym as much as humanely possible.

Q: Who is "einsteinecker?"
A: That is my username on the CNET chain of website's. You may have seen
me as one of the winners of Gamespot's "Lost in Blue: Get Lost in Fiji"
contest from 2007. I hereby admit that I, mangatron am the "einsteinecker"
on the CNET chain of websites.

Q: Sooo.... which Witch is the switch to turn you on? :P
A: I'll be honest, up front and straight to the point with this. My favorite
girl in Luminous Arc 2 is.... Dia. That's right! Ever since this game was
announced I've waited to see the other witches before making a decision, and
upon gazing my perverted eyes upon her brightness of beauty, my love was
secured better than 128 bit encryption. Stockings, tight fitting suit,
glasses and that odd leader-type personality. Yes! She is the one for me!
Take that, you friends of mine who call me "lolitron"! Dia isn't a loli!
Victory is mine! Mwhahahaha!

Q: Lolitron.
A: Shut it.

9.REQUESTS         &
___________________&

I am requesting world peace. Well gee, if we all could agree on the same
thing then we have world peace... Maybe I'll request some donuts...

In spite of all that, what is probably most important is that readers
submit confirmations for certain things, mainly:

-If you managed to fill both Althea's FP heart and Fatima's FP heart in
the same run, and how.
-

Also requesting scans of the Japanese artbook. Nyahahahaha....

You too can be mentioned here if you submit something helpful!

-Special thanks go out to TracySmith of GameFaqs for Luminous Arc 2
for providing the bust sizes for the girls in a post on the message board.
-I would especially like to thank Marvelous Entertainment, ImageEpoch,
and Atlus USA for making this game possible. Without this game this FAQ
would not exist. Or maybe I would have written this as fiction...
-Special appreciation go out to JC Staff for animating the animation
sequences in the game. JC Staff... you made so much possible through
your works of animation, ultimately turning me into the unofficial
"Greatest Mahoraba Fan" in the english speaking world. Thanks again.
-Thanks go out to Mechafanboy for the helpful tips posted on my thread
at the GameFaqs message board for LA2.
-Thanks again go out to TracySmith for reminding me about TextPad, the
program I used to finalize this FAQ.
-Thanks to yingchenluo for confirming my actions for the
Chapter 22 choices in regards to its effect on getting Fatima's ending.
-Thanks to cuc for posting in my Intermission WIP thread at the GameFaqs
board for Luminous Arc 2 about section 6.27 regarding the mixed positions
of Althea and Luna.
-Thanks to all the fansub groups and scanlation groups out there working
on the anime and manga. Anime and Manga are a real time pleaser for me and
man oh man do I miss being among that company of souls. But lately speed
translations make my translations look so slow. The old days are truly in
the old days...
