I Failed At Anime 2022
Sayo is good and it's fun to imagine Hina as a psycopathic yandere who exists to completely validate Sayo's inferiority complex because I am a broken individual who wants his animes to be as broken as he is.

Some people like Hina, some people like Sayo.

Some people who like Hina think Sayo is an evil shrew and a heartless abusive witch who hates her sister for being naturally talented while some people who like Sayo think Hina cares only for her own amusement and doesn’t care that she crushes her sister’s dreams and looks down on everyone for not being as naturally gifted as she is.

The idea that they’re teens with teen problems who still happen to love each other despite their problems never seems to enter the realm of possibility.

I'm tempted to say die, but then I saw the roll counter and now I'm conflicted…

Happy Mirei day, I guess.


Also Hina takes a while to stop being an rear end in a top hat to pretty much everyone she meets. That's kinda her thing. Which is kinda funny, because she's not really too bad towards her sister on purpose

Also, Sayo is kinda an rear end in a top hat to everyone she meets, too. She chills out way faster, though.

Nodosaur posted:

The new Hina and Sayo event is pretty good, though it's reminding me how I looked into the fandom and saw that everyone who talks about it tries to make one sister out to be the literal devil. So that's disappointing.

I assume this is vague because you mean people pick one and the other's the awful one?

I was pretty scared I might had to spark for her to be honest. Sad no Fumika came to complete the set but what can you do, got plenty of perms to somewhat make up for it

But yeah my hoard of jewels is pretty much drained

Fair. As I said, I just got into Bandori a month ago, so I'm not familiar with a lot of the fandom and who people consider best girl and best band. Hina just seems a lot more chill to me, albeit because she really doesn't care about much because she's so good at anything she tries to do, and likes dunking on people like Aya. Same reason I like Moca a lot too. As I said before, Roselia is my favorite band with Afterglow coming in second, but Sayo really seems high strung and all that. Yeah, she chills out over the course of the Roselia story, but it never quite leaves. Watching some of the Roselia live concerts though, her VA doesn't seem that way at all, she looks very chill.

Speaking of VAs and Roselia, Ako's totally looks and acts the part from what I've seen. Also, Ako birthday is apparently today according to my most recent login, so that's cool. Just wish I had enough to do a pull.

Also, watched the Bandori anime over the past couple of days, it was good if solely focused on PoPiPa and the art left something to be desired. Oh well, PoPiPa is a solid middle of the pack band, so it wasn't a waste of time, and the characters were good. Now if only the characters from the other bands weren't only cameos and Roselia actually sang or something. More GlitterGreen would've been nice too, for the Milky Holmes cast stuff. I barely recognized Soramaru's voice there, but once I got used to it and her mannerisms, the Nico came though their drummer real easy, and I picked up Mimorin as Yuri right away,

Yeah, was just about to mention that myself now that I remembered to update the game. The new Scouting screen is cool too, as is the better login rewards screen letting you know what's coming next and when your next login milestone is, Wonder if Soul Gem rewards have come in yet?

This is what I get for not paying attention to usernames. But that's the usual thing, isn't it? Ignoring the bad bits about a character you like. It's just way more noticeable when they're twins and don't match.


Also I'm glad they stole the birthday thing from Million Live(rip) and put it into Million Live.

I think Sayo’s VA is the one said to be the least likely to stay in character.

Also, Ako’s VA was also Tsubasa in Love Live and it makes me wish A-RISE has gotten to perform live like Saint Snow got to later.

Sounds about right from what little I saw of them performing live.

I remember reading that a couple of times, but it never really stuck in my mind, because I couldn't reconcile the two characters in my head, they're so dissimilar. But yeah, seeing A-RISE do Shocking Party or Private Wars live would've been nice, too bad it never happened.

I did get two 4* on my last pull when the event started though, the new Sayo and a Yukina. Super behind on actually playing the event, I think I’m burnt out from the last one.

Congrats. I really wish AnimeNYC would get some Bandori or LL people over here soon, but I guess I gotta wait for the con to be more established first. Still, it seems to be growing in a good way, and they know what they're doing, with Peter Tatara in charge, who used to run New York Anime Festival before it got eaten by NYCC, then ran ReedPop's Anime side for a couple years after before leaving to start Leftfield Media.

They got Aniplex and the FGO director out here for their first year, plus the Anisong Diva Night thing they did, so I wouldn't be surprised if something like that happens again this year.

The Roselia outfit is great to see relatively up close (I was like ten rows back from the stage). Even more UOs were broken! Only two songs (Louder and Passionate Starmine) but it was great.

I finally got Discord, so can I get a link to this thread's idol chat?

Also, Lantis released a preview of the 4th Live theme song, which is not the 4th single. Gives me a Mi is for Music vibe, and the B-side is giving me quite the hit to the feels, especially with the countdown at the end there. Nice costumes too.

Oh yea! My friend is the Rinko in that group. They double-died since most of them managed to get autograph tickets Friday (The one day it wasn't completely insane because they added an extra 30 with no warning).

Speaking of which I should get my signboard out and set it somewhere safe. With all the camping I did for that, definitely don't want it getting damaged.

And then I did it again the next day because there was small girl who really wanted one and was desperately trying to find someone to sell her their ticket, and well, I guess I wanted to do something nice.

The crazy bit was hearing people offering $500 for the autograph vouchers. I don't doubt it given idol signatures are notoriously hard to get, but still, crazy.

No more shall we bow to the whims of the tyrant Allarion! A new new day of idols is dawning. The people rise up and cast off the chains of oppression! Yes, we will keep what was good of the old ways, but we shall cast aside the bad, and the creepy, and the horses.



By the will of the people, I have seized control of the idolwatch from that cruel despot. This season we're looking at:

・Pripara (ongoing, two eps per week, from episode 18)
・Aikatsu Friends (ongoing, from episode 12)
・Music Girls (seasonal, new!)
・Revue Starlight (seasonal, new!)
・Idolm@ster Cinderella Girls Theater season 3 (short, filler)
・BanG Dream! Garupa☆Pico (short, filler)

I refer you to the oppressor's fine write-ups for the new stuff.

Same idol time (Saturdays, 1 pm pdt/4 pm edt/8 pm utc), new idol channel. I'll have some kind of pregame ~25 minutes before. Maybe something new, maybe something old.

Posted this in Discord, but my Step Up came out pretty good:

Ice Cream Nico idolized, plus Pirate Nico gets more skill slots.

Also, Nico Day was my 800th login, so I got some BTs. Tried to imitate Rinsenpai, since he got 6 URs off of 50 BTs, and it turned out super well!
