Yeah, that's more or less what I got out of google translate.

Sidenote: アイマス gets translated by google translate as Imus, which I find terribly funny.

Those are just usernames, but yeah looks like it. Tragically, the usernames are not as immediately amusing as some of the ones I've seen in SIF.

But you have to go out of your way to message people there, these just pop up while you're tapping on pictures like an awful where's Waldo looking for the spot that gives you 1k gold or whatever.

Sorry if I misunderstood something and this isn't the place for general Love Live talk, but I've been subbing a few of the Love Live audio dramas, most recently the New Year's dramas, right here. Please check them out if that sort of stuff interests you.

I'm not sure how much of the Japanese population would have heard of Don Imus (seemingly the only other likely アイマス candidate) than idolm@ster, but it's been like that for years so I guess it's as permanent (or more so) as anything on google translate is. Also bing translate and babelfish say the same thing.

Nothing's really been revealed yet, but that issue of Famitsu and a Nico Nico Douga live stream both happen on the 28th, so I guess we'll find out then.

I assume it'll follow in the vein of many past series games with that style, where it's more idol management than collect and be rhythmic. But I could be wrong, so it'd be best to wait and see what more news says.

It is a hard life when you have no dreams for the future, your dad is dead, you have to raise a family by yourself, and your apartment gets demolished. I don't know about you, but the way the writers pick on Nico at every given opportunity comes off as being more malicious than funny. At least they made her a motherfucker to everyone so she "deserves" it, but it's not like I'd be in a good mood either.

By the way, I guess I copied the wrong link, but I totally meant to link the beginning of the drama set (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uiM4qX9IRwg)

You're a trooper. I'll be sure to go back and listen to more of these tomorrow or so. Gotta get my dress - < 900 points away - and gotta get at least one Kanako. Good thing I had all those stamina drinks clogging up my present box.

Also your translations have reminded me that I need to capture all the dialogue from the event stories in the Girls' Wonderland GF Note event before they disappear tonight. I'll do that as soon as I get the dress. And I'll eventually get to translating the stories someday.

Nico is good because in many ways life has poo poo on her, but her response is generally to try to make people happy, whether it's by caring for her siblings, cooking for her friends, performing for her fans, or whatever. She can definitely have a bit of an attitude, though - the contrast is also part of what makes Nico good. I'm OK with the writers continuing to give her a hard time because it means more time devoted to her. It's often funny, too, especially when the problem isn't her misfortune but her reaction to it.

Nico is very cute when she is a goofball who loves pranking her friends. She is less cute when she is constantly a petty motherfucker.



Nico is also cute when her hair is down and when she is trying to hide the fact that she is dying of a terminal cold.


e: I do like the drama where Nico's mansion gets burned down by an angry mob, though. That was funny.

Truly, the greatest loss we experienced when Love Live moved to the redesigns was Nico wearing her pigtails lower.

Accordin' to this fan thing, Nico used to...
... be a maid.
... be popular.
... be smart.
... be good at everything.
... have a girlfriend.
... have a good personality.

Nozomi, Kotori, and the animation staff took that all away from her.
