Team gorilla is what the fan base calls the group for momoko, kaede, and Rena. The group is called this because of their straightforward strategies and decks, with momoko focusing on charge discs, Rena focusing on accell discs, and Keade focusing on killing water enemies.

Kaede Akino

(5 star awakening art work)
Intro: kaede is shy and is always worrying about her friends, she isn't the strongest magical girl and relies on Rena and Momoko to help her out. She is constantly getting into fights with Rena and breaking off their friendship but she always apologizes first. Kaede has the most nuisance to her gameplay and I actually wouldn't refer to her as a gorilla since she has 2 accell and 2 blast discs.
Pros:
•her AABBC disc deck is one of the least problematic in the game and makes her easy to fit onto a team
•strong magia that hits water type enemies like a truck and has a chance to apply fog
•magia at max awakening can buff accell and charge discs for her entire team
•decent attack stat (36 out of 78 five stars in JP)
•easy-ish access to additional memoria slots
Cons:
•very low hp and defense stats (76 out of 78 five stars in jp in both stats)
•when she's not hitting water type enemies her middling attack stat starts to show
•her connect has regen which is a little slow in both mirrors and PvE
•her mp gain up is just as likely to be useless when she uses a blast chain connect instead of a accell connect chain
•her magia only has a CHANCE to apply fog and fog only gives the enemy a CHANCE to miss so her fog could be entirely useless (this is partially fixed by her doppel but doppels are usually too slow to consider)
Conclusion: Despite Kaede's many flaws she is a great girl for both mirrors and PvE. In PvE she does great against water type enemies and can easily out damage the likes of mami tomoe and Alina Gray with her magia however her discs will be less powerful, in mirrors she struggles a little more because of how fragile she is. Keade is going to go down to any fire type opponent that has any bite behind it's bark but if she manages to stay alive long enough to get her magia she will destroy the many water types that populate mirrors however this is assuming she's at a decent magia level and the opposing yachiyo/nanaka Tokiwa/Asuka/Sayaka don't have defensive memoria that allow them to take Keade's hits.

Rena Minami

(5 star awakening art work)
Intro: Rena is a combative girl who just can't seem to be nice to people, she's basically a tsundere to the core but she shows her kinder side pretty often enough to not make her unlikeable.  From
A gameplay perspective Rena is an absolute monster on the battlefield in theory but she is held back a little by some less than stellar support options
Pros:
•high attack stat (7 out of 78 5 stars in jp)
•her AAABC died deck allows her to charge her magia extremely quickly and her personal memoria can help her speed one out right away.
•her connect comes with a good critical hit buff and an attack buff along with an accell disc mp gain buff on it that will help patch up the holes in the teams she wants to be a part of
•her magia gives a flat mp refund of 35 percent and gives an accell disc mp gain
Cons:
•low defenses and health (59 out of 78 five stars in jp in hp and 51 out of 78 five stars in defense)
•she only has 1 blast disc so she struggles to do damage In mirrors and PvE
•unless she's put in the leader slot she's going to struggle to get a puella accell chain off on the first turn
Conclusion: Rena on paper is an amazing unit with her access to strong attacks, a strong connect, and a strong magia, the problems comes in the form of her straightforwardness.  Rena is focused on getting her magia out over and over again but to do this she'll need support from other accell focused girls such as madoka kaname, or Rika who are both fairly weak in terms of raw attack power and aren't the same element as her.  She doesn't have the same utility in PvE as her fellow glass cannons tsuruno and mami tomoe but she also struggles in mirrors because she isn't likely to survive more than one turn against the more popular earth element units

Momoko Togame

Intro: I like to think of Momoko as the mami tomoe of kamihana, she cares for the other members of team gorilla so much so that she is often called overbearing by Rena.  Momoko is an interesting case because for a while she was one of the most popular picks in mirrors for a while alongside kirika Kure and Asuka Tatsuki back when mirrors was based around more offensive tanks rather than blast girls.
Pros:
•good stats across the board (26 out of 78 five stars in jp in hp, 42 out of 78 five stars in jp in attack, 14 out of 78 five stars in jp in defense)
•unique defense pierce effect on her connect alongside an atk buff and a charged damage buff
•magia provides a blast and charged damage buff to the team for three turns
Cons:
•her ABCCC disc deck is the worst possible one in the entire game and it has killed worse girls entirely
•her magia is single target and hard to build meaning it isn't all that useful even when it does go off
•her connect is probably going to be coming off a charge disc which isn't exactly ideal like ever
•ignore defense is less useful in PvE then you would think
•since her release there have been memoria released that can also allow girls to ignore defense and even though they aren't consistent, they also don't take up a team slot
Conclusion: when it comes to PvE I can safely say that momoko is not someone you should invest in, she's not going to hit very hard compared to other fire type girls and she's not providing anything that is all that necessary to fights.  Mirrors however is infinitely more complicated because kirika kure exists and she is a defensive beast who is still fairly prevalent in mirrors and who's biggest counter is momoko.  I don't think momoko should be put in every team but I think when you're clearing layers in mirrors she is defiantly someone who can come in handy for cutting down kirika or any other tanks who aren't of the water element.

I'll probably be covering the Oriko magica girls next since I've covered the main three groups in the story but I'll also be doing a small chapter on sana Futaba since I didn't want to include her in the rumor four due to me not being sure if she was part of the group but now I am sure so I want to do a review on her.
