Forgot to come post here about it. Sorry for potato phone camera, but Maki made it safe and sound.

PS - Her lantern comes with an LED so it actually lights up. I was unreasonably excited about this.

are the og imas games really cutthroat or something

i think i liked the OG anime better than CG because haruka was a better anchor than shimamu and her mio problems but both are good

also i really like SHINE now. i didnt like it as the replacement opening theme but its a gorgeous melody

I've only played the PSP version but I gave up.

Starting with Yayoi made poo poo easy at first, but then mid-game I had trouble because her stats weren't that good.

Whereas with Chihaya I failed in the beginning because it's so easy to get her moody.

I still love her though.

Chihaya love.

cutthroat is exactly how i'd describe the early games; everyone is basically competing with each other. you get a decent look into this with miki since they don't chnage too much about that with her, especially this last battle she has with haruka where she straight up says she sees it as a competition. also notice how often takane interacts with yukiho in the anime, that's sort of a small joke since in the games takane is a TOTAL BITCH towards yukiho all the time lol. but in the anime she's supportive as gently caress towards her.

platinum stars decided to lessen the cutthroat ness and just have them like each other because fans preferred it like that.

Kinda? I only played a bit but Hibiki definitely thinks everyone in your agency is some sorta sex criminal, because Kuroi. It's not exactly like idol-stuff is squeaky clean and the games don't really cheerfully ignore that whole aspect of it, even if they're overall fairly light. But I mean, the anime isn't exactly Perfect Blue or anything, y'know?

I'd be fine with an army of Harukas, tho

This too, it's a lot more buddy-buddy when everyone's on the same team.

But there's still that tension between Haruka's "let's all be pals and work together" and Miki's "gently caress you i'm gonna be a star." Because they're idols at the same agency, rather than "an idol unit."

Platinum Stars has like 1/100th the dialogue anyway, there isn't anywhere near enough interaction to support anything complex. Which is unfortunate, but otoh I don't have to spend too much mental effort trying to translate the words when I'm playing it.

i wonder if that reduced amount of interaction might be indicative of them being more willing to add ml and cg to it later. a real monkey's paw situation tbh

Interesting thought, it would be a lot easier to just add a new person as a full member like this, minus they'd have to be limited to whatever songs they have recorded.

I saved up 50 gems to try and get devil nico. I didn't, but I did get a nice SSR idolized Hanayo so now I have the "I Love Rice" Rice Queen. I don't know how to feel about this, because rice is cool and good. I think I can understand Hanayo's gimmick. It's what's kept me from becoming serious about bodybuilding. My cousin and uncle are both bodybuilders, and my cousin told me I'd have to drop the rice if I wanted to get serious. :negative:
