WTF
>>268859521ainons were doomposting about Aipri toomaybe everyone are just depressed
>>268859580Aipri is just kind of meh. It's making Prichan look good.
I like vtubers so I'm okay with this, but these kind of "actual fictional character" vtubers never work out. If >>268859537 is right then I'm not optimistic (but still hopeful).
>>268859670Are you familiar with Link Like Love Live?
>>268859537LOL this is the same shit Bamco pulled with Idolmasters Vtuber branch that nobody gives a shit about. They have zero faith in a new series if they're seriously crowdfunding through vtubing.
>>268859686Is that the one that covered a few aikatsu songs? I don't really know much about it other than that.
Hasunosora is doing well while va-liv is kind of a failureLet's see which one Aikatsu Academy will be

Can't believe they got their series name wrong

I think they straight-up used DeepL translation for the EN sites
>>268859961There's an en site?
>>268859521How many people who asked for more Aikatsu do you think wanted it in the form of Vtuber lore videos?
>>268859968top right language switch buttonhttps://aikatsu-academy.com/en/idols/wao-parin/
>>268859961Sad as it may sound that's more effort than 99% of people do.
>>268859988I doubt that this was their first choice, my guess is that this is some sort of "prove there's an audience for another full anime" type of project.
>>268860027The first and normal logical choice is just do another anime.This just feels like another misguided attempt at throwing shit at the wall and hoping for something to stick except now it's Capcom-tier you better buy it so that we know you're interested so we can make the REAL thing then it would be a shame if no one buys it.
>>268859961>the suicide captainkek
>>268859961>The suicide captainVery fitting...
>>268859961idles told ainons to die
>>268860055Not quite. To create a modern anime, you need sponsors, and to get sponsors, you need to give them a good project proposal. A popular youtube channel with millions of subscribers will surely get potential sponsors' attention.
this is beyond grimAikatsu is dead

>>268861365>Are people really THAT desperate for a new Aikatsu anime
Mamimumeee
I am getting into Aikatsu with Academy. Glad it's not gachashit like Hasunosora. I hope it is yuri. I heard Friends was the yuri one.
>>268859988>>268860055they're following emerging markets, not really surprising after declining profits with the exact previous markets.
why do they all have chinese names? are we being infected again just like in 2019
>>268861673Those are Japanese names though
>>268861721I will NEVER speak Japanese, but even I know "Wao Parin" isn't Japanese native.
>create a new idle>her name is "Meh"Yeah I'm sure this won't spawn memes around here...
>>268861762Wao is a common Japanese surname, such as Wao Youka.Parin is probably just made up.
>>268860415We're currently on the "No she's not" phase.Eventually, we'll be on the "Yeah she's similar but Cirno didn't invent that personality" phase.
>>268861762Retard
>>268861812>common Japanese surnameIt isn't common, this surname doesn't exist. Her real name is Oukawa Takako. There's a name using the same kanji as 和央, but it reads differently.
>>268861891You would think the glaring bow buns on her head would have been a super giveaway. I wonder if she'll go "Ni hao!" in the anime or if CCS has a copyright on that (being sarcastic on that last part).
>>268861891Oh yeah, I'm dumb.Anyway, I'd wager the vtuber's surname was taken from her.
>>268861365I'd rather if there's any kids/little girls show other than Aikatsu, but other than AiPri which is I'm not into, most of these shows nowadays are worthless.What happened to Sanrio, by the way?
I am going to make a schizo prediction RIGHT NOW:There is going to be a fourth member.We have heart, diamond, and clover. You just KNOW they will introduce spade at some point.
>>268861365>>268861281>>268860929>muh yum>borekledeady2024 and it's completely forgotten.
Oh look. Another one of these dumb pyramid eye things. I know AiPri has one too and I forgot to point it out but it gets kinda fatiguing when every single one of these shows in this genre has this.
Dumb attention whore literally never leaves
>>268861946I am sure you haven't watched every older little girls show.
>>268862027>not a single iota out of you until I pointed out the eye symbolism
Is it just me, or does the PV look 2D but have a 3D feel to it? Like they're tracing/rotoscoping 3D models to help with the 2D animation? I think I've seen it in other idle anime before, but it's hard to describe. The animation feels off.
>>268862094i think you're right
How the heck are we going to change "AiPri - Aikatsu and Pretty Series" now? Do we put "Aikatsu Academy and AiPri" or "Aikatsu and Pretty Series"? Because it's beyond stupid to give AiPri special attention in the title now that Academy is coming out soon.
>>268862029I was talking about kids shows in recent years.
>>268862148
>>268858607>>268859052I'm someone who honestly likes vtubers currently mostly watching Cecilia Immergreen who just debuted on Hololive, I also like the FuwaMoco twins but it's hard to get excited over a project like this because it feels like they control their talents too much and their charms don't shine through in a genuine way, especially if they have to hold back their true selves for a kid's audience.I do think the artstyle they went with is... Interesting to say the least, it works well in 3D but definitively feels a bit surreal in 2D animation.Could've been a more hype reveal, but it also doesn't feel like it's over for realsies? Like they still could make a new TV anime depending on reception and even if it has a tough path ahead, it still could do alright enough to make it happen.Aikatsu is truly doing the equivalent of edging the viewers for years... AiPla in general seeming like a bold desperate direction but then ending too early, then Starway as a last throwback, then more teasing... It feels like it went from a Team A franchise to a Team B franchise, but now it's kinda on this limbo where it miiiight become Team A again but they're still experimenting, honestly I would rather end this never-ending suspense already and just have them making a new IP for little girls, Princession is pretty much what I wanted to see Bandai doing.
>>268862238A lot of us realized it was possible. We just didn't want to actually believe it would happen. Aikatsu honestly might have been better off inactive than whatever this thing is.
I miss the original Aikatsu/s future/70s setting.
I don't know how to feel. I can watch a show about people doing literally anything and be entertained, but I can't watch actual vtuber content. Hopefully there's something for me in the near future.
I miss Aikatsu Stars.
>>268862999All of us do, ainon.
The goth is cute. Pink is cute, but her hair is complicated enough to draw where she can look a bit off. I'm not really a fan of Blue's design. They all look cuter when you simplify their designs a bit.
>>268863080Forgot the picture.
based banrise proving you retards will consoom anything with the word aikatsu in it.
>>268861957>>268863109Yeah, totally not suspicious fourth space in that picture!
Uh oh, Mieru has hearts in her eyes.
>>268863197Where's my sex type!
>>268863109>MEH
>>268859052I'm not hype anymore
I fucking hate vtubers now they ruined idol franchise everywhere
Nice boat.
i just saw the news !!
all three of their hairdos are too weird
>>268863937Goth is fine.Pop is typical retarded pop. They never have a normal or good hair.But did Cute need a gorillion ribbons there?
>>268864007Pop screams 'we liked Myamu but her design belongs to another IP'
>>268859327Aikatsu died after Akarigen.
>>268861589>Emerging marketsEmerging my ass. The vtuber market is already extremely oversaturated and completely dominated and on a stranglehold by Hololive and Niji (in Japan lol NijiEN)We've seen countless big-ass companies trying to get a slice of the vtuber pie just to completely fall on its face.
I love ainons
>>268861589Vtubing was an emerging market when Prichan featured it years ago
We already had a vtuber idol, and it was the only time it was done well.
>>268864459>girl behind model is portrayed as insecure stalkeraccurate
Do little girls even watch vtubers?I don't like the implication that is gonna be directed at older age groups.Maybe I'm just out of touch but vtuber feels to me like something that's mainly on a teenage/adult audience.
Yeah, this thing is definitively for big friends.
>>268864493Children watch Pekora. Marine also has done collab stuff with Ciao, but her stuff was with Ciao plus, which I think is targeted towards JC instead of JS.
>>268864493So in context the plot is girls at the idol acadmey are steamers as part of their aikatsu not vtubers, the media its presented in is vtubing. It will probably be more like a plot line presented through the characters streams than actual open streaming.
>>268861957>>268863197I mean considering this is not-vtubers it would be weirder if they don't add more members as time goes.
Woke up only to find out vtubing Aikatsu is a thing? Am I dreamposting? How odd...
Why is this font so soulless and awful.
>>268864587...boing!
>>268864585>NFTkatsu
>>268863008>All of usNo, we don't.
What if Aikatsu was never actually good?
I wish it had been only the OG designer.The other two girls feel way overdesigned.
>>268864493Yes they do, it's free endless content accesible by phone with a default app, that's a very low entry barrier for kids and parents looking for a quick solution to entertain them.Pekora is well-known to have a kids audience but I bet it extends to pretty much any vtuber on the dorky side.
>>268865158Seems like they were made thinking about 3D more than 2D, the main content IS going to be 3D after all.
>>268864897I haven't watched the original since 2012, so sometimes I find myself thinking this. I'm too scared to actually go back and check though.
When are we getting the full Aipri songs?
>>268865695I was a latefag and I genuinely liked S1, I would put it up there as a solid little girl anime, then S2 starts terrible, but has good episods whenever ir laser-focuses on S1 characters or Akari, S3 is more stable but also where it starts getting a bit stale, Stars feels really hype at first but yeah I also felt some of the well-known problems, haven't watched aifure/pare but I did watch aipla weekly, it drags for the first 10 eps by having too much exposition, starts getting good then suddenly ends, weird ride.
>>268864493an MLB team just had a Hololive night so at the very least they're all-ages content
i mean, im glad aikatsu isnt completely dead, but man, talk about a monkey's paw. least we'll get some cute art again out of the old aikatsu artists who were sleeping
>>268865824first cd comes out in august
>>268862148We'll think about it when/if Academy will get an anime.
>>268865993Thanks!
>2024>i am forgotten
>>268865853More or less agreed.>OG1 good>OG2 mixed>OG3 good again but reaching the limits of what it could do>Stars lots of wasted potential and really mixed >Friends it's okay nothing bad but nothinig amazing>lol PlanetIt's odd. Aikatsu didn't become straight-up bad or anything. And it's not like it didn't find its formula or its footing either. It just kinda fizzled out on its own just like that.
>the myamu survived primagigood on her, wish it was the bunny though
>the goth is beta sumirethe lore...
>>268866283>literally named mehthe sumire curse continues...
>>268866283>>268866448Just hope her future sexy girlfriend has a good design. Preferably from the OG designer too.

The LORE of Aikatsu...
Happy Birthday to Yuu!
>>268867859Happy Birthday to Yuu!
Academy will fail spectacularly because they don't understand vtuber culture or why people tune into streams. The kayfabe era of vtubing also ended like 4 years ago, so trying to do in-character, setting accurate streams feels like reaching for an audience that doesn't exist.
>>268867534Translate it weebs
>>268867943Happy Birthday, Yuu Hattori!
>>268868042How did va-liv and Link Like Love Live did it?
>>268868115Happy Birthday, to Yuu!
>>268868171There's a reason the former completely failed and the latter is just running on LL brand and even so it's just a fraction as popular as the previous groups.
>spend 200 yen>get a random picture for your album>has a voice line too>that's itOh man.
>>268867534how the hell did Planet last that long
>>268868446It didn't.It's just them shamelessly trying to obscure the dead period on technicality.
>>268868446It didn't. I'm assuming that was the length of time they were still selling planet merch, or they're just trying to save face.
>>268864493Yes, but this isn't for kids. Lack of an arcade cabinet is all you need to know.
>>268868289I heard that Hasunosora is at least more popular than Liella.
>>268868446They're shamelessly including the original announcement from Summer 2020, the early test locations of the cabinet from December 2020, and the shutdown of the arcade cabinet from March 2023 to bloat that period.
>>268869135Yeah, the branch itself is doing well and its game is very popular, it's just completely inaccessible to the average overseas Love Live fan.But that's the kicker, Hasu has an actual game and it's another branch in Love Live while Aquors and Liella are still active. Aikatsu Academy is all we're getting for now, so it feels like they aren't giving you a choice at all.
ainons are my friends.
>>268864493Prichan, a show aimed at children no older than 9, was based on vtubers as a concept and that was in 2018. What do you think?
>>268869886Prichan was based on youtubers, there's a distinction. The only overlap with vtubers was Daia specifically.
>>268869886Prichan was Youtubers and Streamers.Vtubers were barely starting in 2018.
>>268869660Beggars can't be choosers.They should try this with Boykatsu.
>>268869660To be fair, it's not like we've ever gotten anything Aikatsu ourselves. It's all been through fan efforts. So in that regard nothing has changed.LL is an odd case because it's super popular overseas and yet they do nothing to milk and exploit that popularity and if anything it feels like they're putting effort to exclude baka gaijins out of it.
>>268870008Vtubers have been around longer than that. Kizuna Ai got very popular in 2016/2017. The current incarnation of big vtuber groups that are popular today were starting to get popular around then, but as a concept they were already popular.
what the hell are these?
>>268870580You could argue that Vtubers existed since the fucking annoying orange, but you and well as I knows that would be being pedantic as shit.Vtubers in no way shape or form were even tenth as popular as they are right now. They were existing, they were starting, but they were in no way something everyone and their mom wanted to jump in as the new big thing around that time.
>>268870008>Prichan was Youtubers and Streamers.Didn't that get dropped pretty early on as well?
>>268870751knife
>>268870706idle antenna
>>268870875No.
>>268870751That is actually how I remember it around that time. Around early-mid 2018 outside they got so popular I thought it was some kind of money laundering scheme with the kind of donations I saw on superchats or whatever they were called back then
>>268870875They never dropped it, it just became largely irrelevant after season 1.
So, idle vtubers.Who did it first, Mashumairesh or Shining Star?
>>268867859Whoo?
>>268870963I honestly wouldn't consider vtubers to have been truly "popular" until during/after the covid boom.They were moderately popular for sure but nothing out of this world like that.The rona was the ingredient that truly made them explode.
>>268871088Birthday girl
>>268871551Kirari Party Time?
>>268871291Yeah good point. Before COVID they were popular but only in otaku communities. People who liked anime knew about them and not many other people. In 2020 they got way more popular with people who watched regular streamers, now in 2024 a cunny shark girl just sang at the dodgers stadium

>>268877544
>>268859297that shoudl be good news because hasunosora is well liked, the only '''downside'' of hasunosora so far is that it doesnt have an anime yet, other than tha its pretty good
>>268867534>>268868088> top box: Datacardass & Animation> bottom box: Virtual Entertainment Sure seems like an anime/gaming component aren't priorities
Aikatsu is out of creativity. Planet was creative, but it was boring. Friends is uncreative and boring too.
Aikatsu could drop the school theme; it's repetitive, the narrative is becoming increasingly rigid, and there's not much left to explore. Love Live and Gakumas already explore school idols. I want a different narrative perspective.
>>268881538What remains for Aikatsu and Pretty series is to repeat the theme infinitely, AiPri is a "copy" of PriPara/AiPlane.
>>268881538Eh, it's a kids anime so they have young characters attending school.I'm pretty sure the only reason Tokusatsu doesn't do school (for 95% of the time at least) is because they need older actors, they simply have more skill, have a closer height to at least look like they could fit a hero suit, plus they're handsome to soccer moms, otherwise I think they would do school too to be relatable to the target audience.
>>268881538I liked the theorycrafting when we got the "Aikatsu Planet" title, something like Gundam colonies and singing in space like Macross.

Miichan might be having a heavy period.
Ainon would date a fatty like Miruki or Riamu.
>>268882977Is “fatty” the next stage after “a guy with a job”?
>>268881702There's no problem with going to school; the issue is focusing solely on the school environment. Some Precure series don't take place in school all the time, and sometimes they have different school settings, like in Mahoutsukai. Jewelpet has different approaches, and each series was a different genre. Pretty Rhythm doesn't use the school setting all the time and even mixes idols with ice skating (at the time, there were few anime about ice skating). PriPara has a school setting, but the focus is on the PriPara world. What I want in Aikatsu is something that doesn't just focus on school but explores other ways to approach the idol theme.
In fact, the title "Aikatsu Academy" is very generic.
Don't give Mii-chan a moment's opportunity.
>>268883102We got that with Aikatsu Planet and it was lame. The school setting worked well with the series until they diminished it's presence in Friends and removed it entirely in Planet.
>>268883341mii's chan's magic eyes.
>>268883415Aikatsu Friends wasn't a specific school for idols; they placed it in a regular school and didn't add anything interesting to replace that, so it became generic, uncreative, and boring. In Aikatsu Planet, at least they created an interesting virtual world, and the idea of combining live-action with animation was quite unusual. The problem was that they didn't know how to execute it properly, and it had the misfortune of being during the pandemic. I don't want Aikatsu and Pretty to become an endless, uncreative repetition like Precure and Love Live.
>>268883680Pokemon is a successful children's franchise and rarely focuses on the school environment; it only addressed it recently in Scarlet & Violet.
>>268883102Aikatsu's gimmick IS going to school. That's the big Aikatsu thing that sets it apart.You'd have a easier time divorcing school from Love Live t. b. h.That being said, Aikatsu Xenoglossia when?
>>268883890If it's an Aikatsu school as creative as Jewelpet Sunshine and Twinkle I would approve.
>>268881772need the UC aikatsu spinoff...
Aikatsu Gakuen
>>268866018I don't speak Japanese. Has an anime not even been announced yet?What is it they're announcing then if not an anime?
>>268884145vtuber
>>268855583
>>268884236Damn, that one is scarier than the ghost.
>>268884037How about an Aikatsu series where it takes place under the sea? It would be a school for mermaid idols, it would also explore the aquatic environment. It would definitely be more creative than Tropical Rouge Precure.
>>268884227You mean live vtubers? So they're going to do livestreams and answer super chats?
"Tsumugi-chan is no longer with us, and if she was, I drowned her..."
Why couldn't we have gotten Shining Star 2 instead
>>268884145It's basically Bloomy*Cafe 2 but with a new generation instead of Planet.
>>268884145According to the press release, the current projects include a group live released via Youtube, individual channels for the three characters where they will host individual streams, a phone app where you can collect digital cards related to the series, the release of the song from the PV, a special feature in Ciao, a bunch of related merch at the official store (including academypans), and a vague teaser with "collaborations with previous Aikatsu idols"
>>268884477Imagine the sheer vitriol that show would have with a rival school like dreaca.
>>268884236
>>268884557ngl, that seems like a lot to keep up with.Watching a show weekly is one thing, but I dunno if I want to commit to having to follow three different channels for this.This seems like a big ask, especially for a franchise that's been dormant for so long.
It's clear that the title "Himitsu no Aipri" hides the dreaded "Himitsu."
Never meet your idles.
>>268884674even besides the eyes, something about mii's face just is a bit off there, very kowai (and maybe a bit kawaii too i think)
Is Anyamal Tantei Kiruminzoo any good if I enjoy shows like PriPara and Aikatsu?
Never Mii your idles.
Of all the protagonists in the Pretty Series, Mitsuki is probably the one who can instantly look the most terrifying just by removing the highlights from her eyes.
>>268884773hmm its not really comparable to those but its still a cute show so id say give it a shot and see, its more like a more sanitized tokyo mew mew, or superficially a not-insane damedame detectives
When is /ai/ getting a gospel song like Tomorrow Song
>>268884933Look, I think the Mitsuki psychopathic eyes things is cute, but let's be real here: Tamaki is the most frightening AiPri.
>no lewds allowedIt's so fucking over
I miss her.
>>268885314oh yeah? prove it.
>>268885510Is bandai learning from the horses?
>>268863109So which one of these 3 is voiced by Zucchan.
>>268884437PriChan?
>>268885637Zucchan was already fired from Bandai (Denonbu).
>>268885576
>>268885726
>>268885726I thought there would be blood splatters on her face from the thumbnail
>>268885726spooky. base picture?
>>268885834
>>268885726This feels like cheating somehow
>>268885510Says Who? I'm going to have to practice drawing more.
Tamaki would kill Sakura's enemies without hesitation.

>>268887328Are the vtubers VA/actresses minors? Maybe they want to avoid trouble, but weird they didn't do this to aipla given it's literally their face exposed.
>>268888992
>>268889438That would never be a reason.
>>268840369>No korean idolsGood.
>>268890792
>>268889438>Are the vtubers VA/actresses minors? Since when does Japan care about such thing?Gotchard girls are minors and they still got a lot of porn
>>268890951Really? that's awful.... where?
>B-But Precure!>B-But Sentai!>B-B-But Pokemon!Why are we pretending Toei and TPC bucks and being decades old established monopolizing are the same as Scamco being retarded with idols for the umpteenth time?
I love Yuu
lemon in the summer.
>>268890951That would get people cancelled so hard if it was a western show...
saw Nagomi Yui at a grocery store in Flavortown yesterday. I told her how cool it was to meet her in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother her and ask her for photos or anything.She said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?”I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but she kept cutting me off and going “Delicious smile! Delicious smile! Delicious smile!” and closing her hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard her chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw her trying to walk out the doors with like five whole kilos of rice in her hands without paying.The lady at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Ma'am, you need to pay for those first.” At first she kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.When the cashier took one of the packages of rice and started scanning it multiple times, she stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any delicous-ctrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that's a word. After the lady scanned each package and put them in a bag and started to say the price, Yui kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.
Mitsuki will have no hesitation in eliminating the Otomodachi that approach Himari.
>>268891924grilled lemon
>>268884477what happened to that show anyway? I remember an anon usually posting screenshots but at one point he stopped
>>268892798It ended because there seemed to be some behind the scenes issues with the artistic direction of S2.

>>268892930Flowering Heart is the one that got canceled before season 2 started. Shining Star ended properly after 1 season.
Shining Star DMF never ever

>>268893257If these are official merchandise: Cute!If these are fan creations: Japanese fans are insane to make these this quickly
>>268893701those are the official ones, the physical aikatsu store stocked the new merch immediately today
Why do we talk about korean animu but not chinese animu like babala? >>268889801
>>268893869Because it belongs in /pc/.
>>268893869i have nothing against it as a concept but i havent seen any (actual) chinese cartoons so i have nothing to add to that convo
best korean
>>268894526luv macaron
>>268894526Isn't that just Yurika?
Of all the Yurika/Aroma-type idles I have seen, the one from Roselia in OG Bandori has to be the weakest one, she can't even remember her chuuni rants and everybody talks over her.
>>268894969not exactly
>>268893397They were going to do more. There was even a sequelbait teaser at the end of Hera's movie. But the new art-style was controversial and the project basically died after a hiatus. It did have a proper ending, though.
Oh yeah, I still have the raw for the Hera movie in my Google Drive.

>>268884773If you liked Lilpri or Fushigiboshi no Futagohime you would like it, but that probably doesn't help.
