Simple premise -- you talk about a moment in a Disgaea or other Nippon Ichi game where you got HORRIBLY lucky.
For me, I'd have to say that a recent moment definitely qualifies. In Disgaea 2, I had a few Cell Phones in storage, I'd left the title screen on long enough that I saw some footage of Rozalin summoning a Prism Ranger in the Dark Court, and the idea hit me to use one of my Prism Ranger cell phones in the next mission, to see if I'd get something good out of it.
The mission was the one in Chapter 11 where there's four different powerful monsters (from the Dragon, Aqua Demon, Holy Dragon, and Mystic Beast families) on the outer corners, and nine isolated panels with Invincibility and Warp on the inside, with four different Mages on the corner panels (to start with). When I used my Cell Phone, guess where the Ranger landed?
Bottom-middle isolated platform. THE MAGES ALL PRIORITIZED OWNING THE RANGER. Made clearing out the beasties one-by-one that much easier. And then it was a matter of lifting and killing one of the Invincibility Geos so that the Mages would randomly warp to the panel and get owned one by one (though it was a pain waiting for the last one, the Star Mage, to warp on).
So yeah, there's my story of a lucky happening . . . now let's hear yours!
