Did you remember to save at the town center? Any saves before that save tend to get partially corrupted
That's even more strange because i'm also on android and the crash happens every single time... maybe this has to do with specific stats that i'm applying? I legit have no clue! Could be just a case of having to uninstall and re-install, so i'll do that! In any case, it doesn't stop me from playing, it just skips the beginning dialogue.
