Yes, we expect a few clashes of opinions due to different experiences and observations, but a handful of readers will agree with most, if not all, of the rankings. Regarding the list, it can be very challenging to construct a perfect presentation of the given article. Still, we maintained our objectivity to bring you the Blue Archive character rankings.
