Sure, Conception II, the upcoming RPG from ATLUS and Spike Chunsoft has a tongue-in-cheek concept, but it's no slouch on gameplay depth. If you don't give it the quarter it deserves, you'll quickly find yourself on the receiving end of merciless beatdowns in the game's labyrinths. (I speak from very personal, shameful experience).
The key to staying strong in the labyrinths is constantly updating your team's roster of Star Children. But before you start min-maxing their gear, perfecting their elemental ATK/DEF combinations, and finding the best classes that match your play-style, you actually have to be on good enough terms with the Academy's girls to undergo the "Class mating" ritual. The below screens are the first stepping stones you'll take into forming the bonds vital to saving the earth from Dusk Circles.
