I like Eli more, but I'm pretty sure I already have that card in JP. I'm certainly not doing both, not right as I'm getting back into deresute and Fates comes out. The question is: do I even go for Umi?

YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES UMI.

Please recommend an iM@S song that is like Aoi Tori or Nation Blue. A song with a blue feel.

See, I told you to finish the anime so you could hear that. I'd also mention Marionette no Kokoro, but then I would, it's technically a Miki song though you can undoubtedly find replays of anyone singing the in-game version.

Try going through the ones Shiina Gou composed. Gekkasai, Nemurihime, Saihyou, and Koikaze especially. Actually, anything strongly associated with Chihaya should fit.

Nation Blue kind of reminds me of Mythmaker and Next Life.

So the medley thing is out. I decided to do it on hard for 3 songs, "What's the worst that could happen?" 1st song I know, 2nd two i've never heard before.. Whelp.

1st song I full combo, 2nd I fail half way through and use a heart gem to continue, and then the 3rd I loving clutch this insane poo poo that i've never seen before and pass by the skin of my teeth.

I think I will stick to normal, since the range of difficulty in hard is very wide..

How much gold do you have on hand? Your best friend is the 5x perfect lock thing. So good at catching mistakes.
At hard, though, not sure it'd be completely worth it.

I was going to say it wasn't really any worse than Project Diva or even Starlight Stage but on a second look the notes being hollow is definitely not helping.

I had that and the 30% between songs on. Since I naturally full combo'd the first song, i used up all the 5 mistakes on the 2nd, and then failed. Then continued, and the 30% was only useful for the 3rd song.

Also just did a normal medley, there were 2 songs with 7 stars, the highest i can probably go is 8, and both of them i hadn't played or heard before. managed to get a full combo on the last one though. Felt pretty good about that.

But yeah when you can get 7 star songs on normal, i dont even know what the difficulty level was on the 2 for the hard run, since I didn't realize i could wait around on the team selection screen to check them.

Lessons for the future, at least. Now you have more information, and that's always valuable.

First medley of the event for me: Daring!!, LONELIEST BABY, Binetsu Kara Mystery.
Probably could've been OK on Daring!! if I had focused a little more; FC'd it before, but I lost a little concentration. Still love that track to bits though.
And then LONELIEST BABY is just my jam, without a doubt. It might actually be my favorite all-of-μ's song.
But then at the end, the lasers and waves tripped me up.
I do love all three of those songs though.

whelp all of my idolized members are max bonded. Now to chug along max leveling them i guess, while hoping that my 31 other non-idolized girls get a dupe at some point, or my space is gonna fill up. I did spend 4 hearts on extra spaces though, so that should be a while.

I guess I'll stick non-idolized girls in and get them to 25 bond to make the wait shorter when they get idolized.

That hard difficulty song that i barely managed to pass was this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wawJx0gCAMU

I just got it on normal and it is 7 star, and hard it's 8, which is pretty much my max.

7 stars seems pretty easy to me, but when i get to 8 my brain poo poo's itself. guess it depends on the song too. Like this had some weird rhythms i had to deal with for the first time hearing it.

Ironically I preferred Sleeping Princess to Promise. I liked how it starts of somewhat subdued before going full power ahead with Chihaya's vocals.

Also, I turned on the moving 2d in SS, and I swear the framerate went up from the static ones. Very perplexing.

Has the score bar in SS always flashed rainbow colors as it increases? I could've sworn it only flashed when you hit another rank, but now it's like constantly pulsing goddamn rainbow colors until I hit S.

Base 2D mode removes the flash effect, I've never really noticed that it does that before but, since you primed me to notice it

I've been stockpiling most of my event tokens for the 2x/4x days, but I just tried the event song on Master and was able to squeak out an S-Rank. It's almost 100 more points than S-rank on Pro.

The joke ending slider? I love that slider. Easily in the top 10 sliders in the game. It's rude, but fair.

The problem with holding on to all these tokens is looking at my event ranking and watching it slowly slide away, just like my high score.

…very briefly they were both at like 11k, like 3 hours into the event or something. Obviously that wasn't going to stay, because I'm not quite horrible enough to set alarms to play poo poo every time stamina refills or whatever

Certainly not. I don't even know who this idol is.

I dropped :10bux: on Starlight Stage when I started and used it for discounted daily pulls, and I haven't put any more into it.
