HBD Hasumin>>560800594>>560800902Gotcha is weird but funny. Ligma is trying too hard to be unironically cool.
my japanese sucks so much i couldn't finish rereading saki's route in time...
>>560801197
>>560801289Saki wins NIA, tells producer she really doesnt want to lose in the future because it would break her. Now you're ready to read step 3
Where do you think you're going, geek boy?
>>560801226>trying too hard to be coolThat's what Ligma's appeal is to me they really larp as wolves. Their lyrics have lines like, "claws out" and they howl. It's so god damn cringe it becomes based. My only disappointment with it is that they wasted a lot of the heavy hitters in the SC roster for Ligma.
Happy Birthday Hasumin!
>>560801421Nyooo don't suck my cock, I'm saving myself for marriage!
>>560801375let me get three hundred thirty-three of 'em
>>560801421If you brought Mei wearing that outfit home to introduce to your parents they’d 100% think she was a prostitute.
/@/ did a good job not leaking this step 3
>>560801421i love honorary gyaru rinze
No... I can't go on...
BELIEVE IN CHIE
Im worried that the gakumas story wont age well long term. Every single thing i read feels like its warped into its own reality separate from everything else.
What's Ligma?
>>560801175>>560801223Amana we love you don’t be sad please!
>>560801673ligma balls, asahi
>>560801576People definitely did last thread, everyone just properly used spoiler tags which feels like a first
>>560801421One of these is not the same as the others.>>560801563Well, your parents are racist!

>>560800930Haha, it's MMK.
>>560801563>>560801563That's what the gyaru rep was before they got nerfed for otaku appeal.
>>560801661>Every single thing i read feels like its warped into its own reality separate from everything else.This is true but it's probably for the best. I imagine part of the reason the GK story is the way it is is because SC has become impossible to penetrate with how dense it is. GK's model means it'll be easy to pick up half a decade from now.
>>560801725I think the funniest part about it is that you cant tell if people are serious or not about it because its indistinguishable from the usual Saki vs Ume posts
>>560801421Oh no what are they going to do to me (a shy nerd)?
>>560801661>Im worried that the gakumas story wont age well long termSome of you might not be ready to hear this yet, but some of the choices this branch made that which gave pretty positive results in the short term might probably come back to bite it in the ass in the long term.
Choccy milk, I want it
>>560801946tell me the lottery numbers mr. fortune teller
After nearly two years, Sena is finally going to lose her title. Are you ready?
Say something nice about your new Prima Stella!!!!!!!
>>560801946I think only the shounen routes will only be affected. Their entire content rests on being shonen slop. And we all know what happens once you run out of strong enemies to face. They introduced even more stronger enemies like Beerus.
this guy and his circles
>>560802261It's like those holes in cardboard cutouts you put your face into when you take a photo
>>560802067Look up to the sky. What do the stars tell you?U R MR GAY
IT'S HANAMI TIME
Either two extra hits or +1.
>>560802368took me a moment
A new age has begun. Everyone please welcome the Prima Stella.
>>560801742Her hair does kinda resemble MMK's, I suppose. Maybe MMK should take an interest in Showa.
>>560802350me on the right then
Should I roll for this Saki? Im a bit over my limit I keep
>>560802124Rise and shine, nerds.
>>560802456If Saki's lameass gigaslop jobs to Dorothy, I WILL become Yamamoto's strongest soldier
Kyaaaaaahh
>>560801824>GK's model means it'll be easy to pick up half a decade from now.It’s easy to pick up because everyone is essentially the same. Here’s the macguffin tournament. She wants to win it, but she can’t because something is slowing her down. So they work on it, solve the problem, win the tournament, and then the next macguffin shows up. Rinse and repeat.
>>560802251Sena is, what, the equivalent World Martial Arts Tournament champion, around Roshi and Tien? Would that make Nadeshiko = Raditz, Shion = Vegeta+Nappa and Gekka = Frieza?
>>560802456This is not China.>>560802472She is permanent, so I'd rather roll on the limited Reversi banner, myself.

>>560801803official card btw
Actual spoilersSena has fallen, Ume won with Endless Dance
>>560802914
>>560802956Someone needs to put a fucking end to Endless Dance
>>560802956>Endless Dance anotherUmm we can't have that yet, do we?
>>560803002But it wouldn't be Endless Dance if it ended?
Saki's first mistake was using the Hajime outfit.
>>560802956Surprised people here actually waited this long, I checked the gooks yesterday and they had a screenshot of Saki's commu after she lost literally moments after the app updated
Lmao imagine being tsubame you get GIGA cucked by your worst nightmare and using your song. Imagine being an UmeP your idol can win without you, truly the route where GKP isn't even needed.
>>560803087koreans having zero shame is well known
>>560803206Tsubame has a Giga song?
>>560802592It's about the execution which I think works well for most characters, Saki is an outlier.Imagine meat, it's all the same meat but you can add spices. Saki's route, like her food, is just boiled meat.

>>560803435She was always easily neutralized though.
>>560803475IMAGINE
>>560803469She would but in a slow calming voice.>>560803492Ryusei Date?!>>560803475Not quite as tiny as Saki but yeah. Temari is also the tallest in both of her trio units iirc.
No Saki for me after a couple rolls. Dont like that talentless loser anyways!
>>560803281Thank god not.
CM doko?What's the cope strat this season btw?
Could you say something nice about Hasumi on her birthday?

>>560803684She's cute, 90's good.
Oh no
>>560802368I'll forever lament the loss of Big Hiro and Small Ume.
>>560803684We have an idol named Hasumi and a mascot named Hasumi?
>>560804007Most people only care about Ume because her boobs are big. I guess this one would just attract a different audience
>>560804104Did you know that there are 4 Nao's, 3 Saki's and a couple of Karen's among others too?

>>560802456>>560802956The strongest idol....
Unironically don't really understand what people in-universe see in Ume. Her songs aren't very good, her dancing isn't very good, her vocals aren't very good. She's got big melons but that's all. Is it the energy?
Saki Step 3 is already cinema and I only watched chapter 21. It feels like when you're watching an anime and the new episode skips the opening so you know something big is about to happen.
>>560804539They really might all just be staring at her breasts. Kunio must have a thing for boobs
>>560804539It's because her songs sound very good to music nerds. And the judges are all music nerds.
>>560803206what's the point of GKP for the idols in GK? The idols all get what they want with or without him anyway eventually, I'm sure that they might even go pro and become top idols all by themselves in the future just by going to any production, at best GKP will speed up the process a few months but otherwise the universe will just make them successful anyway.
>>560803469>>560803602Where.... do you think you're.... going....? Geek-boy?>>560803684Cutest unvoiced.
>>560804539doesn't China's existence already prove that those things don't actually matter?
>>560804539It's an oreimoman thing either you accept his writing as it is, or it infuriates you with how dumb it is. I don't know why they put the guy known for writing rom coms in charge of DBZ slop when a guy known for battle harems is right there.
>>560804539you wouldn't get it
>>560804685The real answer is you just have to take the writer's word for it. In-universe Ume is a potential monster that can do everything well. The same thing goes for Sena as well. She has cool songs and all but Mashipi herself is very shaky when she performs which isnt very prima stella-like
>>560804158proto hanami sisters could have been
>>560804158Hanami kusogaki duo would've been a sight to behold, but even current Ume has little shit energy.I just think concentrated ball of energy would be better than the large dog we got. In the end I still like Ume though.>>560804273Proto Saki was quite different too, though she didn't change as much as Ume.
>>560804158we were fucking robbed from this cute flat cheeky imouto
>>560804759>when a guy known for battle harems is right there.Is he good at those?
>>560804806I would have loved this. Damn those titty monsters...
>>560804685This entire series is full of idols that, by all accounts, shouldn't be top idols, but can reach the top anyway through the help with P. It's just a little jarring when Ume is considered one of the ones who doesn't need P when she really doesn't have the chops for it other than "dude trust me bro". It's not even that much of a dealbreaker personally and I'm glad they're actually starting to move on with Saki's route but the dissonance is definitely there and if she's going to be our first Prima Stella after Sena then it definitely feels worthwhile to bring up
>>560804539Keep in mind that in that world the Prima Stella, the peak of idoling in Hatsuboshi sings Choo Choo Choo.
>>560804806I remember this anime, shit was all ass
>>560804662>Where.... do you think you're.... going....? Geek-boy?Cute!
Student council president ChinaPrima stella UmeGood lord...
>>560804539just say you hate idols next time
Not like idols in the real world need to be incredible singers or dancers either, they just need to be cute and convince throngs of lonely salarymen that she’d put out for them if they buy enough of her merch.
>>560803356what the
Its really hard to convey a characters skill in fiction, especially since idol stuff irl is just picking your favorite. Like im supposed to believe star mine lost lol
>>560804539You basically have to turn off your brain for GK writing to make any sense.
sis…
>>560805124hehe yeah it was
>>560805276Prez China. Ume and Misuzu keep their current spots. VP Hiro. Or Ume gets VP and Hiro gets Ume's old position. Misuzu the scheming court eunuch arranges for Rin-chan and Mari-chan to claim the last two spots.
>>560805080I'd gladly take Choo Choo Choo over this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-BhIzqm4H4o any given day
>>560804539imagine that you're in the hatsuboshi general department and you're just walking with your friends at lunch one day and this fucking retard girl is shouting at the top of her lungs asking people to come to her concert and then you take a flier from her and she bows so fucking hard at the earth shatters beneath her shifting mass and when you're worried you're about to die she smiles at you with the force of an exploding sun and then tells you thank you so hard that your grandchildren are filled with gratitude and now you have no choice but to go to all her concerts
>>560805668I pulled FMW earlier. It's a sick joke is what it is...
>>560805393it's a thigh high job
>>560805364Didnt nichika’s story literally cover this
>>560804539The real reason is pic related. It's why Haruka is the series' top idol, it's why every Kuroi unit lost, why Project Krone lost, why everything with even the slightest modicum of evil in this series loses. It doesn't matter how good of a singer, dancer, vocalist, etc. you are, because the person doing what they love will always rise to the top.
They were giving this at the costume exhibition
>>560805706We already know the makeup of the next Student Council. China is President, Ume is VP, Misuzu gets to make all other personnel decisions, but there has to be a role for Hiro.
>>560805915Do you expect people who only know and care about GK to know about something that happened in another branch?
>>560803707Sure why not.
Girl, aren't you supposed to be at a different school?

I messed up. Fuck you, Temari.
>>560806419BITCH YOU WERE ACTIVELY TRYING TO DO THIS EVEN WHEN EVERYONE WAS STOPPING YOU
>>560806250Haha, sorry girls, just need to get the rice cooker.
>temp lower today>but hotter because of humidity>yucatan all stickyit's not that bad...
>>560806419I can't keep defending her..
>>560806419I'm not following GK but isn't Sena the one that invited Ume into this whole thing?
>>560806419Sena and Tsubame are best friends after all.
>>560806250Oh yeahLet's set it off!Summer night paradise toru's cheeky grin is hot
>>560806320SCP's endgame
>>560806419yeah stupid bitch should've invested everything into saki instead
>>560806657YesShe's being overdramatic
>>560806657She sure did! Remember she wanted to retire in the first place and now she's being melodramatic.
>>560806730
>>560806636If you can’t handle Sena at her worst you don’t deserve her at her best
>>560806779How do I do vertical mode?
The amount of flags brought up in the first commu was unreal, they could have at least been a bit more subtle.So Saki was inspired to become an idol by watching Sena's Endless Dance Prima Stella victory live. I guess that's why they added this after they made the outfit for that. Explains why she got disillusioned by Sena's image after seeing her resign herself to the plateau, though that was kind of inferred already.Also Ume wins with the same song, real weird for them to suddenly pop in the song and call it a legendary one near the end like that.

GKP is the most pointless P in existance. Basically a non character at this point. Might as well play as one of the girls since (You) are never going to be involved in the story.
>>560804539She has fun idol songs by legacy Imas staff and has massive idol power tanks.The last part is very important for being a big idol.
>>560806419I think the point here might be Sena remembering how frustrating it is to lose might be what reignites her passion in this route, in a "be careful what you wish for" scenario
Let me savor this brief moment of Prima Stellaness.
You guys seem to think Sena was unhappy with this outcome. She explains just before this that she let it happen because she enjoyed producing Ume so much. Project Stardust's first order of business is to agree they want to make Ume even stronger. She's just melodramatic about it.

they should just let LuminousP scouting Hatsuboshi girls, since GKP is clearly a fraud at producing. At least LuminousP will make you a pro.

>>560808124That's what you're mom said.
>>560808168hijs
>>560807539Rinha trains Ume in every route. This is the last thing she needs to get her edge over Saki, which leads to Ume defeating Saki at NIA in every timeline. Or, every one except Saki's route, where P is enough of a buff for Saki to win anyways. But Ume gets stronger when she loses. This victory appears to be a result of the extra strength she gained following the loss to Saki at NIA.That means Rinha's training is the only reason Ume hasn't won HIF until now. Rinha ultimately made her worse.
>>560808231I'm sure my're mom would agree with me that Tsubame is ugly
>>560808041I'm supposed to sit here and think to myself that Ume can somehow perform endless dance better than the best dancer in the academy. Shit, I think I'm just going to goon to fanart from now on.

>>560808147The center idol's VA for each Refrac7ion unit has been present in every stream so far btw(Eri, Damayu, Yukki, Rena). Exception is Fumage cuz it wasn't revealed in a stream. Extremely disappointing but expected. That said, if the theory that they're revealing the last two units at once is correct, that means Rinze and Haruki get to be centers while the other 5 girls got screwed over for seemingly arbitrary reasons. And also Straylight gets two centers cuz fuck you lol, but also one of them is Asahi who was already a center in the first place. Anyway, Kojimbo is a nigger. I hope he gets ED.
*very loud arisa noises*

>>560810120Oh nyo. I'm afraid her route would just be Kaichou 2.0, except it's Rinha and Saki this time instead of Sena and Kotone.
Trying to figure out how you could use the new legend card 'Achieving Brilliance'.I don't really know when you would be using 'Genki' since most of the time when you're playing Genki you're stacking them up.

>>560811229Saki/Ume. Specifically Ume's, and it's not close. Saki Step 3 finally has someone strong enough to dethrone Sena, leading to Project Stardust as a desperate attempt to beat her. Ume's route is so extreme that Project Stardust begins in Step 2.The power scale in Ume's route is literally two "Steps" ahead of everyone else's but Saki's.
We love Amana!

>>560811702Chinese pear...
>>560812225Misuzu can use Dark Void, Temari can use Dragon Ascent, Saki's ability is Supreme Overlord, Ume is Regigigas, Rinha is a move tutor, and she can also unlock Hidden Abilities, Sena is Shirona-sama, Gekka is Leon.
I guess the Stardust training montage happens regardless, just with the time point being different. Except when Sena is being produced, in which Saki hangs out with Tsubame instead.

I get that Sena is also a weirdo, but nobody else there finds it creepy that Rinha is basically roleplaying as a Hanami sister now and saying "Dad" like it's her own?
>>560815015Post that other one.
>>560813381He's only like this for like, 3 girls, and it's one of the first things he says about Saki, she's so competent he doesn't have to do much.They REALLY wanted Ume to win only now so they wouldn't do a TsubameP and train Ume behind Saki's back.
>>560815552That Kei shit really must've broken her mind.
Saki route is redeemed and I'm actually looking forward to her victory now.
Are Ps always this useless in this franchise or is the GK only thing? I'm starting to debate on whether or not I should just press skip if my Player Character isn't even going to be involved in the story other than going sugoiii and good job.

Is Kotony's the worst Step 3?
I like how the recent ML lives are taking a more AS-viewpoint on the group songs where they go more freestyle with who can sing them. We had a princess song with no princess types singing it and groupings I still don't understand. Keeps things fresh a bit.

>>560816348Good deko
>>560813678>>560814827Seeing Rinha suck off Saki is awkward, it's like watching Temari be a clown except it's not funny. I can't call it "OOC" but she's very different otherwise.Oreimoman writing I guess.
>>560816150I'm gonna be honest I didn't read the last part, but after 2023 for a year I could only associate Hikari no destination with AS main trio. And it will probably be a year before I stop associating Endless Dance with AS Vo団

>>560816428We're talking about different things then, I thought it was in regards to AS as a branch instead of AS going "YUP I'M THE REASON YOU GUYS EXIST SO I'LL GET TO STEAL YOUR SONGS AND MOG YOU WHILE I DO IT" at MOIW

Wtf I didn't know cards can transform into Legend cardsGreat timing too, screwing up my shop turn because I didn't get the Legend card that I wanted and it's an Asari turn right before finals...
Gimma Luca Saihyou
>>560816424It's an intrinsic part of her character, she's essentially an even bigger siscon than Ume.
>>560817114yeah now imagine a card changing into a Legend card you don't want and ruining your whole run
>>560817107Ends with Luca trying to putting a loaded shotgun in her mouth and Haruki has to stop her
They'll surely give Rinha to imoutoman but I'd have liked to see Yuriguy's take on her
>>560817236I'm essentially fucked too, I'm producing Saki and I have yet to unlock the shop refresh so deleting the Legend card just leaves me with a deck without a Legend card
Holy shit, Rinha's attitude towards Sena is completely different here vs in Temari's route. I guess it's to create some tension with Saki's new gang, but I wonder if she blames her dad for fucking up Kei's career.
>>560817319Like what the fuck man, does she want to throw hands?
Juri lust month
need more ryusei commus
>>560816683Sports and romcom can't co exist at the same time, look at the best sports manga of all time Slam Dunk, the romance is basically nonexistent and it focuses on character development instead which is why it's still fondly remembered today.

>>560817554God man you've just made me realize how much I want a gender inverse Adachi hero route in GK. Your idol plans to confess only when she becomes prima stella. Her dead sister is your former production.
>>560817554If I’m thinking of the right mangaka here, not only was it all romcom sports it’s all romcom baseball.

Nothing that wasn't already known, but it's nice to see her say it herself.
Rinha doubters have been rather quiet.
>>560817965She really is bad end Ume.
>>560817991I'm joining the Rinha doubters because I don't have the jewels for her. She needs to be released in November just for my own sake.

>>560818148The meta is saving for the CM banner anyway.
>>560817686>Your idol plans to confess only when she becomes prima stellaWe need to kill Rinami's father.
>>560818208TruckP...
>>560817686>Kotone dies >Her sister takes up the mantle and does it in her placeThis is the Adachi way
>>560818201to be fair a lot of the step 3 / newer cards are outclassing most CM ones, only Mao remains a must have
>>560817859P is so lucky.
Cute
>>560818201The meta is saving for Project Stardust and/or SyngUp...
>Development for both P and Idol along with their bond>Actually uses the side characters well who were all introduced in previous Steps>Deconstructs Saki and builds her back upHonestly, this should have been the first Step 3.
Both have Sena as their inspiration for idoling, but Saki has a better depicted relationship with Sena than the Kotone-Sena one. Guess it helps when Sena can stay in cool mode the entire time.Also, Sena and Saki talk about making Ume's winter HIF song in this, will that end up being the Step3 song that UmeP will eventually think up? Then in Ume's scenario the trio can work on Saki's Giga song themselves at Hanami Camp.
>>560818429Step 3s are all perms though, god only knows when they’ll grace us with another shot at a Gamushara or whatever else. You can at least somewhat plan for CM when a new idol is going to get announced though.
Kinda funny that as I was reading through the pretty serious Saki Step 3, Aochan was having the time of her life defeating Godfrey and Margott (act 2)
>>560818564Nah, it would be weird for Ume to win summer but then have her and everyone job to Sena in the rest, it's better to save these outliers for near the end after building Sena as a big wall.
>>560818564It's the best Fushimi Step 3 so far by far, it's crazy how much better it is than the other Fushimi Step 3s. Even Sena is better here than in her own route or Kotone's.
>>560818792la monke...
>>560818792She really has the tendencies to put things near her mouth.
>>560818792Good job aochan
this event has too much full power cardsI just want to do brain dead supernova and get my missions done
Alright, finished Saki Step3 myself. I was concerned that it would be a rerun on her Hatsuboshi Commu loss recovery but they handled it pretty well.
I’ve never had a run go so bad since I’ve started playing
An actual decent alt color that isn't just black to white and vice versa
>>560818909She's thinking about bananas
>>560818929Why are you not doing the much more brain dead Impression?
>>560818935Hatsuboshi commu kinda off-screened it, we actually get to see what she did at her house this time.
>>560818848I don't think they even know what to do with Sena anymore on her route at least. Sena is much better as a side character rather than a playable character which is insane, because her chemistry with GKP is actually good.
>>560818650>Then in Ume's scenario the trio can work on Saki's Giga song themselves at Hanami Camp.This is the trio that formed to counter Ume in Ume Step 2. It's not a "Sena, Rinha, and your Hanami" thing. This whole thing is going to be happening before Summer HIF in Ume Step 3, which will require an entirely different method for Ume to regain the advantage after she loses HIF (presumably to Saki).There's not a lot of hints here as to what that will be. They do talk about making Ume stronger, but their ideas are to write her a new song, and expose her to professional idols. A song will obviously happen, and Ume already had competitions with professional idols in Step 2.But she probably also dealt with professional idols in every other timeline, so they might do that again. Could be a good avenue to introduce class 3, Kei, or even combine it with Kuroi's scouting attempts to do Ume vs Gekka.But either way, it won't just be this scenario again with Ume in Saki's place.
>>560818564I blame the lack of Rinha model. Rinha feels more used than Tsubame was even though she had a model longer.
>Then see you tomorrow>Good Night, ProducerI can't believe Saki has sex with P
>>560818848Sena's character takes a massive fucking divebomb whenever Kotone is on screen or in the discussion whatsoever
>>560818948Was this outfit designed by the same crackhead who did ED Sena?
Kuroi will be the one to give Saki a song in Ume's Step3.
>>560818948Not the guy fieri sleeves...
>>560819196GK's writing in general takes a massive fucking divebomb whenever Kotone is on screen or in the discussion whatsoever.
>>560818848We'll have to see how Tsubame Sena plays out. Even then, I don't think it'll be as good as Sena/Saki are reflections of each other so it means a lot more when both are work together.Ngl, this may even be better than Rinhas route too since it'll prob be Syng Up shenanigans.I think the only minor nitpick are all the flashbacks but admittedly that may be a pacing issue that turns out better when read in full.
>>560818380Damn now you got me reading it
>>560819307Not true. Kotone is awful with P or Sena but fantastic with Temari.
I tried. I really did...
>>560819392I like Kotone with P... I might be the only one here who does.
>>560809149More like breeding sister.
By the way, wasn't the audition something like Visual Master which is shown in SP or something?
How come other commus don't have this kino
>>560819538Did Saki and Rinha stand on a platform for this shot?

I'm investing on the okazu radio unit.
Invisible Lights
>>560819689lmao wtf
>>560818939no wonder she lost when you're her P LOL
>>560819607Basically, Sena and Saki can beat B-rank idols but that doesn't mean they're at the same level.
>>560819905From P on the floor as they're standing on him?
I'd rather have SC seiyuuposting.They're hotter.
>>560819689Bame's route had the mindbreak graph...
>>560819538no clue what those are
>>560819456You aren’t, the totally more than one person who outright hates Kotone just likes to be vocal about it whenever they get the chance.
>>560819892The art in these cards is really nice but it's like fucking baseball card collection or some shit.
>>560819323Again, they really should have played with the alternate rivalries more. It's a shame they never worked out anything for Temari and Ume.
>>560820064For me it’s Nakadashi Yuki.
Is SakiRinha the strongest Yuri pairing now?
>>560819538Rinyam...
>>560820239It's a bit too inorganic for me. Rinha should stick to a single personality. Either the annoyed SyngUp mother or the creepy Hanami stalker.
>>560820360CorrectSena's level 7 customization allows for two extra hits after growth (and cost increase removed) or an extra card use.
>>560820364Looking at how Sena is written, the former is probably better.
>>560809360Yeah. I have a few of real idols and seiyuu idols.
>>560820117It's ice cream...The ube flavor makes your poop bluish-green (because of the food coloring)
>>560820441based
>>560820364It's really not that bad, you only see that side of Rinha during Saki and Ume's routes
https://x.com/imasml_theater/status/2034464878338203932Ami used some bath salts yesterday that made a lot of bubbles. She cordially invites P to experience it himself.
I'm too old for this shit...
>>560820364Nah, its better that everyone is more fleshed out. Rinha obsessing over Saki is just Temari obsessing over Rinha.
The only exaggerated part is Rinha calling herself the second Hanami sister and calling Saki's dad "Dad".
>>560820769Oreimoman is creating his ideal incest plot right in front of our eyes
>>560820769they just let her get away with this?
>>560820769That's hot
>>560820769I seriously have to wonder what's going to happen when producing her, since there's something bubbling and it doesn't bode well for P.
>>560820982shes going to roll over for producer of course
>Saki wasn't even in FMW outfit during HIF or even the black HajimeSakiP definitely threw so Saki could get the Zenkai Boost. Maybe, we should stop thinking of Saki as a Saiyan and more as a Gon since it does seem like she can become top idol but at the cost of burning out early on.
>>560821024I thought black hajime was for rivals only
>>560820194>Temari and UmeWhat can you even build up between those two? I can imagine Ume's inner child dragging out Temari's kicking and screaming, but that's not much of a basis for a rivalry.
>>560820982She'll just call P daddy instead.
>>560821076That's just shorthand for "Powered Up" since you can only get that after finishing their Road to Idol.There's just never been any reason not to wear it instead of an SSR outfit.
Man, I hope Rinha stays fucked up even when she's producable because every rival in this series otherwise always does the "it's okay guys I'm nice =)" like 10% of the way through the story. Even Leon who canonically in GK is supposed to be Kuroi's strongest soldier still acts nice in the EX stories in OFA
>Misuzu and Saki comparison actually mentionedI'm putting way too many stocks that they're hiding something with this.
