Shining Hearts: Shiawase No Pan Episode 1 and 2 First Impression. April 29, 2012 by Zenith. The bread of happiness is meant to be eaten. I should not be shocked that the show with an incredibly dumb title, Shining Hearts: Shiawase No Pan, is actually interesting and not just some wack treatment on orgasmic bread and that unscientific.

The game has been adapted into an anime television series titled Shining Hearts: Shiawase no Pan that premiered in April 2012.^[1]John deere serial number year of manufacture.

Gameplay[edit]

The player can form a party of up to four characters that will be encountered throughout the course of the game. The player will be able to perform special team attacks with party members.^[2] The ocean is a major part of Shining Hearts. The game puts the player's base of operations on a ship called 'Home Ship'. This ship serves both as the player's home and as means of transport. While the ship starts off in a ragged state, the player will be able to build it up with new functionality. Eventually, the player will use the ship to travel to other islands.^[2] When not out at sea, the player is free to roam the Wyndaria Island. The player will be able to take part in a variety of activities. The player can progress through story missions, or take on side quests to help out villagers. The player will also be able to go around the island to collect materials for baking bread and forging weapons, and even go fishing.^[2]

While playing through the game, working through the story and helping villagers out on quests, the player will collect Hearts. These can be given to Kaguya to help her return her emotions. As her emotions come back, Kaguya's spirit stone will release 'Heart Keys.' These can be used to open doors to new worlds, leading to new developments in the story.^[2] Hearts are a parameter indicating how people feel about the main character. In response to the main character's actions, people will release Hearts of varying color. The different colors represent feelings: Red Heart: Happiness; Green Heart: Kindness; Yellow Heart: Anger; Blue Heart: Sadness; Black Heart: Hatred.^[3] By collecting Hearts, the player will bring about changes to the game's island setting and world, and also expand the adventure to new areas. Hearts can also be used in battle. It is also possible to use Hearts when preparing bread at the bakery.^[3]

One method for collecting Hearts is through the MOE (Mind Over Emotion) System. During conversation, the player will occasionally be allowed to select a response under constraint of time. Depending on the player's selection, the conversation partner will release Hearts indicating their reaction. Their favor for the main character will change accordingly.^[3] There's more than one MOE System in the game, and one of them being the 'Battle MOE' System.^[4] Battle MOE is a group attack system. Every now and then, the player will be given the chance of pairing up with one of the battle members for a group attack. Depending on the selections, the player will get different moves. Some group attacks result in heal spells, some in group attacks, etc.^[4] The feelings of the party members towards the main character will change during combat.^[2] The character that the player selects to perform the team attack will be more pleased with the main character and will release Red Hearts, indicating happiness. The characters who don't get picked will be angry and will release Blue Hearts, indicating sadness.^[4]
