Her Experiences
Objectively speaking, I've seen many people who animals like, but I don't think this is sufficient to describe the case of Ms. Kafka... All the animals on the Colossus seem to appear out of nowhere to see her. It's completely unreal! Meanwhile, our Ms. Kafka, who has dark circles under her eyes, keeps walking carefully to avoid them while cursing these fluffy little fellows.
"Hey! Can someone give me a quieter room?! And someone please get these animals out!" However, when %s tried to chase them away, Ms. Kafka gave a cold looked and said: "When did I ask you do to that?!"
Hmm, Ms. Kafka seems to be a good person...
—ViceHer Story (I)
I already told you not to bother me while I'm sleeping! What is it? Do you want me to shoot you?! What? Franz got lost, and you brought it back? Aha, no wonder I couldn't find him... I'll forgive you then.
Is there anything else? If not, leave now! What? You want me to take the night shift tonight? Whether it's that giant lizard or this big guy, why is there no one reliable here?! Okay, okay! I get it! I already have a layer of dark circles under my eyes anyway... Can you leave now? You know I hate being woken up. If you didn't know that before—well, now you know!Her Story (II)
Are you curious about my gun? There's a story behind it. My father dug it out from under a certain ruin back then when he was chasing after those guys... Hmm, this was one amazing fella alright, though I don't really understand how it works exactly. All you need to know is that I can send all the Eclipsites to heaven with it! Hahaha! I should be the only person who can use it. Its name? I won't tell you since you won't remember it anyway! Yes, it is called an electromagnetic gun, but it has nothing to do with that girl who uses coins! Having said that, although we're called the Revolver Gang, my gun has nothing to do with revolvers...
Is Franz useful in battle? Useful or not, I'm happy as long as he doesn't run over and rub himself against me when I'm fighting...Her Story (III)
I wouldn't have joined any organization if it wasn't for that lizard who just didn't know when to call it quits! I don't want to join any organization! But I can't help it because I have no home to return to, and I actually think that giant lizard is quite cute... Hey, I didn't say anything! Don't ask me about it!
Actually, part of the reason I stayed was that the boss was crying and begging me to stay. He said no one could assume shadow duty because everyone on this giant lizard is too frivolous, so I had to do it... I finally agreed only because she cried so hideously... What? You don't believe she cried? She did if I said she did. What's with the questioning? Want me to shoot you?!Her Story (IV)
The "chairman of animal protection"? Where did you hear that from? It must be the guys on that giant lizard! Damn! They must be tired of living!
What are you looking at me for? Although I always give snacks to Kuma and Pengy, it's because I have too many snacks that I can't finish! Losing weight is also a form of combat!
...You saw me playing with a cat yesterday? Forget everything you saw immediately unless you want me to kill you now! Do it! Now!Navigator, have you seen Franz?
Navigator, do you have dog food?
Lunch was delicious today.
Are you awake? I need your help.
Are you on duty?

You there?
It's so quiet.

Class
Sniper (B)
Overall
B
Advantages
+Active can pull up to relatively decent DPR with enough conversion, with extremely flexible targeting.
+One of the few low rarity Snipers that have splash damage
+Equipment allows for effectively storing up damage over time, granting flexible timing/targeting
+Active is a semi-Detonator nuke that can fire twice in same direction (granting decent versatility)
Disadvantages
-Active DPR in mobbing scenarios is extremely dependent on equipment effect (only 40% base active DPR), can be dependent on conversion because of this
Explanation
To start: Kafka's active is very unclear on what it does. How it works: Kafka fires two shots as tile-targeting line nukes. You can choose up to two of the 8 cardinal directions to fire in. If you only choose one direction, it will fire both shots in that direction; otherwise, it will divide the shots between the two directions you chose. There's no need to save up stacks on her active, she does more damage by using active when it's up.
This makes Kafka a fun flex DPS - the active is both a Detonator nuke and a decent mobbing tool. Similarly, her access to low rarity Splash damage means she handles both mobbing and bossing scenarios. Because of all of these flexibility options (and a good Equipment to support them), Kafka gets away with slightly overall lower numbers than her competitors; it's best to think of her as a budget Fleur in Thunder. Note that the release of Hachi and Gin has slightly lowered her overall favorability for f2ps -- they occupy a similar niche but have much more use later on in the game.
