Big Bang Age:Character walkthrough

Quick notes. The section is divided in three main sections: The School Chapter, the District Chapter and the National Chapter. In the case of the National Chapter, further divisions will be present because of the several factions present there.

Under each character, right below the name is how to obtain the character. The table afterwards lists the starting attributes of the characters, not taking into account bonuses from previous character clears. In the Attributes side, the one that is in bold is the attribute of the character, and those that are underlined are those the character has an advantage against.

Next will be the range the character has for his/her main attack; Short, Middle or Long. The bond a character has will define how his/her loyalty drops when you enter the National Chapter. Past that is the skill the character has, and any requirements to get it, if any. Further are the five character checks. Finally, any notes of importance will be given.

Do note not all characters have a picture available under AliceSoft's page. So in some cases you will be left with visual recognition of their names.
