"I'll do my Rubesty!" is a dumb and awkward translation for "ganbaruby!" and I just use the latter untranslated in my translations, but if they were dead set on actually translating it, it gets the point across and sounds silly, which is as good as could be hoped for, I think. I certainly can't think of anything better.

I didn't realize the anime con I went to had an artist's alley. I guess they all do? This was only my second one. Apparently the people doing commissions only ask for the equivalent of $5-6 US here for fully inked and colored pieces. I could've given someone a tenner for some Jojo+LL art :negative:

I just checked, looking at my profile from the Other tab shows my Favorited character, the one that shows up on my home screen (currently this year's Winter promo UR, You on a snowboard while wearing a bikini top under a snow jacket with skirt), instead of my main team Center, which is the one that shows up in icon form when I check my ranking in the latest Event (my only actual UR, the Smile Chika one holding her shoes on the beach). Pretty sure it's the latter that uses their Leader Skill when chosen as a Guest, but someone check for me.

Super No Vacancy is talking about Starlight Stage, but granted that's non-obvious when there's near-identical mechanics in both games.

Yeah, same. Still wish they kept it and Yousoro untranslated though.

They pretty much all do, yeah. It's where I normally like to be assigned when I'm working at a con. Never commissioned anything yet, but some of the art you can get there is pretty dope, I have some artists I see year after year at con after con and I like to get stuff from them.

Have yet to find any good LL stuff besides figures and random blind box stuff at cons though, been getting it pretty much from Kinokuniya Bryant Park in Manhattan instead. Keep wanting to find some nesoberis, but have had no real luck.

Derp, should've picked up on that. Though as you said, it's easy to make the mistake due to similar mechanics when you're not making it obvious what you're talking about.

Ah yeah. I saw some nice styles, including some of those you really only see in light novels with cross hatching and shading.

I didn't bring enough money in the previous con but there's another one going on now and continuing for a couple days and I think one immediately after New Years too. Lots of LL shirts, trinkets, posters, etc. Bunch of nesobiris too. I'm more concerned with luggage space and finding out they weren't as cheap as they used to be. Even deck boxes for cards are about the same as I could get them shipped from a foreign Asian seller to the states. But I did get a bunch of cute mini waifu pillow trinkets for $1 each. Going to give a bunch out as gifts for weeb friends back home. Shame the snake girl wasn't a foot long for scale's (heh) sake.



Probably should've gotten some LL ones for $2 per but I'm sure to find them in the next con.

Uh, I think it's the scouting ticket that you can buy for $30, which lets you choose any non-limited card of your choice.

Do you guys think they'll refund the loveca for the wrong Nozomi on the pure attribute banner mistake? Every time I've gone "I won't risk it," everyone else ends up getting full refunds and keeping all their cards.

Score Match? Basically, you pick your difficulty and are matched with 3 others (might be bots sometimes). All of you play the same song on the same difficulty (and same chart, I think, in the case of random EX), and at the end, whoever has the highest score is the winner.
I'd say it's worth it to try and go for at least the first copy of the Kanan SR to help fill out your team. On the way, you'll also earn some loveca and an N as well. Lock this N because at the end of the event, as long as you're in the top 77000, you'll get a second copy, which you can idolize and max level for the Goals milestones, and the idolization will also earn you a loveca through the story. At the very least, try to participate for some of the point milestone completion rewards; they'll help out for sure.

I guess I'll give it another shot. My one attempt so far I was 30k points under the second place person (4th place had 0 points) so it made me feel like I was really doing something very wrong.

Although I guess it's more likely that I just had a weak team and got unluckily matched up with two people who knew what they were doing more than I.

hello
Score match places you with similarly scoring opponents, but the first few are completely random as the matchmaking calibrates itself. Kind of like placement matches in other games.

There's an invisible ladder system, so eventually you'll be pushed down to people with weak teams. Every event is basically a way for you to get a SR to fill out your team with though, so they're worth doing for the loveca and that.

Oh that makes me feel a lot better, actually. Getting blown out over and over was what I was afraid of since that doesn't feel good. If I start getting matched with people around my level I think I'll be fine.

Yeah, don't worry about having a weak team, as others said you'll eventually get matches with people who have similar strength teams to you and you'll only get blown out if you tank the song pretty badly (or fail it) or you wind up picking the wrong team for the song (which everyone has probably done once or twice).

You'll still get a decent amount of points even if you end up last, depending on the difficulty of the match you did. I think each place is another 5% of the base points you would get? But they do add up over time. Still, getting blown out time after time is not fun, but you'll get equivalent level teams soon.

I got blown out by like 180k points yesterday.
Granted, that's because I got put into a match with the #2 person on the rankings who has like severely skilled-out UR+ teams, I figure.

Yeah I'm having a lot more fun with it now that I'm getting more balanced matches. I've actually come in 1st a few times.

Worst run so far was when someone texted me in the middle of a song's fast part. The notification came up right where a note was going to be so I of course tapped it instead and then I was just hosed.
