The above is a look at Monster Strike’s original 3DS monster named Olive. She has the appearance of a magical girl, and you can see her original form to the left and evolved form on the right.
She also has a special symbol when she shows up with an enemy, and the original “Energy Heart” friendship combo that is only available on the 3DS version of the game.
The story starts out with the protagonist Ren Homura moving to a new town and transfers to his new middle school. Due to an incident that happened in the past, he has lost parts of his memories, but he doesn’t realize it yet.
As you advance through the game, you’ll eventually find out why he lost his memory and the reason he doesn’t seem to realize that he can’t remember certain parts of his past.
