Chapter 6 beated

wew what an absolutely missed plot opportunity with Nia getting "killed" followed up by Joran's Sacrifice the way it was. Like hello game did you forget Joran's a healer? Would've tied these two pieces together perfectly to use a Phoenix-esque sacrificial revival. Who even cares about D.

Chap 7 intro

... I guess I can't really judge too much until finishing the story but this feels like a very disappointing telling of the merging of worlds that doesn't make any sense?

You're talking like teen pregnancy isn't a thing in real life. Honestly, it's way less common in fiction than it is in reality.

If you're curious, Terms are confirmed to be equivalent to years + 10 later on (not by the main story, oddly enough).

It's not that they're not a thing, but that they are absolutely riddled with problems and in many cases abuse, pedophilia (again, not helping that at this point late in the game I don't even know who the dad is), and forcing children the traumatic experience of carrying to term. If it's gonna be introduced I'd rather have it addressed in an actual storyline that can tangle with the issues rather than just thrown in there for no reason causing nothing but side-eye bait - especially in anime-adjacent media that's long since lost its privilege to fuck around with minors. XB3 absolutely highlights childbirth as some magical joyous accomplishment in life so then it's bizarre to just stumble on this shit under the rug.

Terms conversion though yeah I actually did figure the same age ranges pretty early in although as you say not confirmed in-game but outside, Term 1ers obviously not being newborn babies, and well just figuring it's rather easy to bump their starting biological age up to avoid creepiness... y'know, like Monica/Ghondor could've done and I assumed were before checking.
