Astlibra Revision, Part 55 - Ch5-13, Shiro Saved
0If we successfully helped "Sheero" in Chapter 5 during the Demon King's Castle and defeated the Marionette boss, Shiro will show up at the start of Chapter 6, where she gives us a "Love" item.
Afterwards, we explore the town and prepare for Chapter 6.
NOTE:
Kuro has an extra comment where she wonders if she was "all alone" all this time if Shiro died. Karon then comments on Shiro's existence, and the context of Karon's comment depends on the way Sheero died: whether she was left behind, or whether she was killed by the Lich (the fake Demon King). Other than this comment, I believe the rest of the game is the same if you didn't save Sheero.
In addition, if you didn't save Sheero, then Shiro will have a memory sequence speaking to the Great Sage instead of this wake up call. I'll record a separate session of this later to show it off. Naturally, Shiro won't join you in Elysium either if you don't save her. That said, I don't know yet what happens if you go beyond Chapter 7 with Shiro dead, but I assume she doesn't show up either. I know she returns in Postscript no matter what, though.
Astlibra Revision is an interesting title. The original developer KEIZO worked on a freeware version of the game for over a decade in his spare time. Revision is a cleaned up version of the final game, published by Whisper Games. Vanillaware artist Shigatake also assisted in some art assets for Revision!
Having finally gotten a chance to play it, I absolutely love this game, its story, its characters and world. I was shocked by just how much I really enjoyed this game.
