Machine Lord

The **Machine Lord** (*alt.* **Machine God**) was a mechanical golem who ruled the mechanical city on the 3rd layer. Before he made an appearance, he was already corrupted.

*The First* machine lord gave hope and dreams to those who knew nothing about machines. His ability to create was limited by the materials he had available. *The Second* machine lord who came later and replaced him was able to create machines without the need for materials.

Maple inherited the [Machine God] skill and thus became *The Third* machine lord.

## Plot

Before Maple arrived at the town on the 3rd layer, she acquired a gear called [Forgotten Dream] at the base of a tree near the cathedral she visited during the Benevolent Knight chain quest.
When Maple explored the town, she listened to an old man who spoke about the past. The first gave hope and dreams to the people until one day, a blue light burst from the town and the first was nowhere to be found. Because of the light, the old man rushed back to the city and found new machines that didn't require materials to create and that no one remembered *the first*.

After listening to the old man, Maple rode Syrup through the sky and was knocked off by a strong wind only to find herself in the *Dream Cemetery*. After walking through piles of machinery, she found *the first* sitting on a chair. After awakening to the presence of the [Forgotten Dream], he was taken over by *the second* and named himself the *King of Trash*.

Maple struggled against a barrage of lasers and did her best to save the first but it was too late. In his final moments of sanity, he bestowed Maple with his power and asked her to put and end to him. After realizing what he meant, she activated her new skill, [Machine God], and become *the third*. Maple called out Syrup to restrain the corrupted first and unleashed her new full-powered assault on him to grant his final wish.

## Unlocked Achievements/Skills

* **Machine God** (Ch.84)
	+ Effect: It was a power that destroyed equipment and gave birth to weapons. Sacrificed items of higher quality grant better bonuses.
		- ***Deploy All Weapons*** (*alt.* **Deploy Armaments**) (Ch.84)[Episode 8]: Sacrifice selected equips for armaments.
		- ***Deploy-left hand*** (展開・左手) (Ch.87): Sacrifice an equip for armaments.

As they debate options, a snail monster finds them, so the pair run off dragging Maple behind. They head to the lower levels and Sally debates on the path they go. They head down the right path and find a pair on earring perched on a crystal incasing a key. Kasumi notices the crystal has an HP bar and shatters it to get a key and the earrings.

The pair eventually find a hole high up but get surrounded by two snails. Kasumi gets Sally to use her leap skill. Sally does so and Kasumi uses one of her sword techniques that lets her gain height. This pulls the three of them into the high hole. They head to the door only for Maple to trigger a trap that causes the snails to follow them. The snails grab the key but the three of them work together to get the key back. The trio hurry back to the door and Maple covers Sally for her to open the door. They are relieved to get in as the binding chains fall off. Everyone opens a chest. Maple is given the shield while Kasumi is given the spear and wand. Everyone gets a scroll with Kasumi and Sally each getting a medal.

They warp into the desert night with the three of them feeling like good friends. They add each other to their own friends list and Kasumi leaves. Maple is sad but Sally says it's for the best. They head into a cave in the forest nearby and play with Syrup and Oboro before going to bed.

The next day, the pair wander through the woods and find themselves on a beach. Sally goes diving and finds a medal underwater. She finds a staircase going down leading to a door with something behind it. Sally returns to find Maple behind a sandcastle losing a game of Othello. The one who beat her introduces herself as Kanade, a low-level player. She asks Sally for a friend request as Sally mentions she found a shrine on the island. Kanade decides to explore it.

After a while she pops up out of the bushes saying that she died to a large squid. Sally and Maple are about to give up until Kanade mentions there's a medal there. Kanade shows off her staff and offers to say what it does if she's allowed into the party. Sally and Maple refuse and say their goodbyes. They walk down the beach and find some ruins with some high-level players inside. Sally goes in only wearing her scarf and boots to lure them into a false state of security.

**Thank you!**

**Sou** (ソウ) is a monster companion in NewWorld Online and a supporting character in the **BOFURI** series. As he is Kanade's companion, he is affiliated with the Maple Tree guild.

## Description

Sou is a Mimic (擬態) that looks like a transparent blob or slime, but it's called a mirror slime in the anime. Because of [Mimic], it can transform into other things.

## Personality

Since Sou is a mimic, it tends to mimic those he copies, primarily Kanade because he is it's master.

## Plot

### Companions Arc

Upon reaching the 7th layer, Kanade committed the happenings to his memory. Once he felt enough information was out, he became attracted to a strange occurrence that could be found in rumors. While investigating it, he noticed an NPC he didn't recognize that wore equipment that would allow the NPC to be overlooked. After a game of cat and mouse and memorization, Kanade acquired a *Copying Mirror* and a delivery quest. Delivering the mirror allowed Kanade to test his might against the Mimic. Though Kanade won, he was jealous that the Mimic could freely use the spells stored in his Spell Stash. After taming the Mimic, Kanade named him Sou. However, in the anime, he followed the slime back to the house where it hid as a book, then towards a cave, this time as one of the rocks that is reflecting Kanade's appearance.

The player needs to be able to activate 50 unique types of skills and magic to revive and tame the Mimic after defeating it.

### Eighth Event Arc

Dread and Drag spotted Kanade, and despite his skilled attempt at escape, they were dead-set on eliminating him. After they defeated him and moved on, Kanade emerged and picked up Sou. Sou had split his body, and the split died in the same way a player does. Because of Sou's effort, Kanade was able to gather valuable intelligence on Dread and Drag's companions.

Elsewhere, Mai, Yui, and Marx ride on top of Tsukimi with Dred running beside them. They locate a dungeon portal in the center of a shallow lake that Sally had recommended to them. When they step on the portal way, they're teleported inside the dungeon where Marx has Clear made them invisible. They then avoid the fish monsters by using Dred's companion's Shadow's **Shadow World** to avoid contact with the creatures. Reaching the boss room, an Electric Catfish that's severely weakened by Mai and Yui by slamming giant balls into it created by Iz. Ultimately, Dred defeats it with his **Double Slash** attack. After that, they all earn medals for their accomplishment.

Payne riding on top of his companion Ray with Iz, Kanade, and Misery, learn about Dred's group's feat and reach a mansion dungeon located in the sky that Sally recommended. The moment they enter it, they're teleported straight to the boss room and face off against the boss, a Tablet Summoner. Through their combined powers, they manage to defeat the boss quickly. With that over, Payne suggests they tackle another dungeon, and the group agrees.

Drag's group is stuck in the desert amidst a sandstorm, and using his special ability, Shin manages to locate the dungeon there. Inside the dungeon, they face off against two bosses, a Ruby Cobra and Crystal Scorpion, accompanied by their monster cohorts. After the first round of their attacks, the boss monsters transform. However, Kasumi and Shin defeat them with ease.

Utilizing her mech form, Maple and her group defeat a large group of Winged Demons, which earns Maple a Medal. Soon Sally realizes that the dungeon entrance was the monster spawning point. The boss, Demon Queen with armor-piercing capabilities, immediately confronts them in the dungeon, and Maple's Atrocity manages to hold it off for the first half of the battle. Maple, Ignis, and Sally defeat the boss in the fight's second half.

As the three guild teams regroup at Maple's base, the Administrators observe them as the Eighth Event's third day draws near. And once it starts, smaller versions of the Demon Queen start spawning around the map, leaving the teams no choice, but to go on the offensive.

Episode 17

**Maxing Defense and Tentacle** is the fifth episode of the second season of the BOFURI anime series.

## Summary

The guild members of Maple Tree arrive on Level 7, where Sally reveals that it's possible to tame certain monsters into becoming companions.

At the Maple Tree Guild, Dorazou explains the newest level's monster-taming theme, including how to tame monsters and the special ring needed to tame monsters. However, it is explained that players can only tame one monster, and those who already have a tamed monster cannot get a second one. Following the monster-taming explanation, Dorazou details that the 8th event will be formally announced soon, and having a tamed monster during the event would be advantageous. Hence, to best prepare for the 8th event, Sally suggests that their guild members get tamed monsters for themselves. Kanade advises that they gather information in regard to the possible tamed monsters and the biodomes they originate from. So the guild member go their separate ways to find and tame their own monster before the 8th event.

In a restaurant on the 4th level, Kasumi finds a ronin frog NPC that gives her a new quest called **Beneath the Fog in a Distant Land**.

Meanwhile, with Maple's assistance, Yui and Mai try to track down a pair of teddy bear companions who easily outrun them due to their lack of speed stats. Fortunately (or not), Iz had created new bunny-themed accessories that would greatly raise their speed stats. Iz also intended to give them some AGL potions that would go with their new gear, but realizes she doesn't have enough potions for them and lacks the ingredients to make them. Therefore, Maple volunteers to fetch the ingredients at the sea area where they're located and has the twins explore more of level 7 together.

During their exploration, Mai and Yui find a Treant binding the pair of teddy bear companions they were after. Taking decisive action, the twins attack the monster, but ultimately lose against it, and every other time, they decide to fight against it as well. They relay their grievances to Kasumi at the Guild base, but also much as she can relate to their troubles, she can't help them.

Meanwhile, while searching for potion ingredients, Maple gets ensnared by the Giant Octopus that swallows her whole. However, in the end, Maple shocks it into submission and devours it, which awards her with a new skill to produce tentacles.

Although they initially struggle against their enemies, Yui, May, and Kasumi persevere, eventually overcome their obstacles, earning new companions, Tsukimi and Yukimi, the teddy bears, and Haku the snake. The ones who've yet to acquire a tamed monster were Iz, Chrome, and Kanade.

BOFURI: I Don't Want to Get Hurt, so I'll Max Out My Defense. ~LINEWARS!~

## Bofuri: ~LINEWARS!~

**BOFURI: I Don't Want to Get Hurt, so I'll Max Out My Defense. ~LINEWARS!~** (痛いのは嫌なので防御力に極振りしたいと思います。～らいんうぉーず！～) is a tower defense strategy game accessible on mobile devices.

The game is developed by D-techno and DLE. In terms of gameplay, it is similar to The Battle Cats with its stage layout. Currently, there are 16 collectable characters, all drawn in a chibi-esque art style.

## Gameplay

Bofuri: ~LINEWARS!~ is a tower defense strategy game that is mostly similar to another tower defense game called The Battle Cats, in which the player summons cats in order to defend their base, which is located in the right side of the stage. Summoning cats has a set cost that is needed to be met in order to summon the unit, and has a specific cooldown. The game also revolves around the concept of gacha, which is present in other popular games such as Fate/Grand Order, Azur Lane, Honkai Impact 3rd, and additionally, Bofuri: ~LINEWARS!~.

All of these mechanics are seen although there are numerous differences to distinguish them from the game, such as the base being located on the left side of the screen. However, as there are no official translations, as there is no set global release, some videos below will demonstrate the in-game mechanics and gameplay.

## Collaborations

#### The Rising of the Shield Hero × I Don't Want to Get Hurt, so I'll Max Out My Defense

On March 17, 2020, it was announced that the two shield-wielding protagonists of The Rising of the Shield Hero and Bofuri will collaborate with each other in a team-up between the anime and the ~LINEWARS!~ game. Unfortunately, the staff did not reveal any additional details for this mobile game collab, but they promised to give more information about the collaboration’s contents at a later date.

The Rising of the Shield Hero is a multimedia series quite similar to Bofuri, other than the fact that both of the protagonists wield shields. Quite similar to how Yuumikan started the series as a Web Novel in the user-generated novel publishing site Shōsetsuka ni Narō, the series' author Aneko Yusagi started The Rising of Shield Hero as a Web Novel series in the same site.
