The really funny part is that you can do her battles whenever, but they’re balanced around you doing them asap. It seems like Jello waited a while to do the first fight so she got curbstomped, but if you do the fight right as soon as it’s available she’s actually a major threat and incredibly difficult to deal with, especially later on when her dog can stun you for an easy layup with Silver magic, which can instakill you if you’re unlucky

It's thanks to the big ships presented on the text (Vyka and Vyna) having pretty much no opposition between each other because Aika and Fina have enough subtext that they're just as big as the ships with Vyce, so the natural conclusion is that they're all a throuple.
