OOOOOH NOOOOOOOOOO!!! Tonmarutchi died...AGAIN! I'll toss the record one more time, and if this turns out to be a dud, I'll whisk the batteries out of my P2 and put them in my Angel instead because this has gone long enough. Did you realize how many times I've reached adult stage on my P2? ONLY ONCE. And do you know who it became? Kusatchi. And when did he die? Age 7. Jeeze. I'm worse than hopeless at this. Yuck. On my Angel I've been doing FAR BETTER than this, and rather a lot I have to say. Seriously, I have got to the adult stage like a hundred times and even got THE BEST ADULT! And multiple times. I even got Kodoten, and guess what, ON THE FIRST TIME I RAN IT! OMG! That was only back in May, so how could I forget it?
I think I figured out why this is so different on my P2. You know how each stage is SEVENTY-TWO HOURS *screams loudly* on the P1, P2, and every other vintage model...
...Every model that is, except the Angel. The stage duration on Angel is ONLY THIRTY-SIX HOURS! Much better, Bandai!! Really, whilst that kind of is a little bit much, it's still better than 3 days and tops it hands down.
I think the modern releases, such as the Tama-Go, Tamagotchi iD, Tamagotchi iD L, and Tamaotchi P's, where the duration is only twenty-four hours (or twenty-five on Tama-Go, let me remark) subsequently tops this because the shorter the better! And we can put this simply in that category of "shorter growths, which range between one and two days". My Tamagotchi Kamui featuring Aikatsu! version started with one day for level one and two, then 2 days for level three and four, then 3 days for level five and six. Level seven was the "marriage stage" and began at age 12. You'd be able to mate at age 24 and if you didn't within two days you would proceed to level 8, which goes on indefinitely. If you did mate, you would have your level 7 characters turn into "parent" characters. And to fully top it off, if you were hatching an Aikatsu egg because you used the Aikatsu dating card, then your baby would go straight to adulthood. Because of the absence of all previous stages of growth, I've extended the baby stage to 5 hours rather than the natural two. Also, parents disappeared if you were raising a character from Aikatsu. Whilst the reason for this is unknown, it's actually better this way.
But yeah, I think that's what it all is. Another reason is because I AM CURRENTLY RAISING FIVE TAMAOTCHIS AT ONE TIME AND I AM FINDING IT HARD. As TCA (Tama-Care Admin) I have a large duty and it takes up a lot of spare time. Every time I introduce a new one into my collection, I have more work. I think that's the reason why Kaubotchi quickly died on me.
