Mayu's the greatest idol.
>>563094105She kissed me....
We love Amana. We really do.
>"I'm just keeping Noriko compay." That's the vibe from Tokiko-sama, but when she brought Noriko-chan to an ultra-luxury chocolate shop, she said>Noriko. I brought you here to cultivate your eye for the real thing>Noriko... Know what true quality is. And become someone worthy of itthanks, toki

>>563093981Don't apologize, it was a good image.
Amana love this early?
Playing idols without a step 3 sucks. Let me play Misuzu with a shop refresh
>>563095935
We all think she is beautiful.
would amana take your underwear and sniff it?
Mio is unforgettable.
I am warming up to Natsuha
Natsuha appreciation hour.
>>563095985>A STANTONIAN HOME RUN
Please don't post Natsuha... I can't control my urges any longer around her...
Today I learned in Japan they count pregnancy months in a strict medical 28 day period per month and that's why they say pregnancy last 10 months in Japan (280 days).
>Tamaki when I come into the office
>>563096839LOL
There better be at least one Amana kig at ACen
>>563096839I thought the babies just spent an extra month there and that's why they're all autistic.
We love Rinha, we really fucking do.
>>563096839Good to know

>>563096874>Tamaki when I come
HATTORI TOOOOOOOUUUUUUUKOOOOOOOOO

>>563097209Tamaki can't wait to bounce on P
>>563097028Just go to Kigurumeet
>>563096874Tamakin talking naughty and adult like as she straddles me in my private office, giggling the whole time because she doesn't realize how aroused I really am and she lets me touch her anywhere I want... that's the dream... the dream I never want to wake up from...
Now this is what a prima stella should look like.
>>563094376Truth.
>>563097873beautiful
>>563097465
>>563094376Most of us are saying this.
>>563096010In this economy?

>>563099238we'll edit out the nip slips
>>563099136Who's this nobody of a character?
>>563098728Not even a bad man, but this is hot. Something about not showing the eyes makes it lewd.
A lot of bad men....
I'm glad YukiMako is one of the approved yuri ships here. Seeing Yukiho happy always makes me happy.
>>563099136I've been playing a lot of suzu lately too and im consistently getting good stats compared to other idols.
Kotoha kisses girls...
she smacked and flipped the board
>>563099874would Kotoha kiss Yukiho?
>>563097136No one knows who this Lisa is!
>>563099540That helps, but I think it's mainly the >Licking a lollipop >The shoulder strap being loose and falling>Some shadowing on her chest, emphasizing her small boobs
Please be kind to moogs this thread
>>563099924Why does she look young and kinda loli here?
>Memoir Untact finally translated>Philo and LilasI thought it was Filo and Lila...
Ok but look at Yuuki if she had long hair
>>563097281Who's the artist?
>>563100074your mind is warped, bad man.
>>563100151That's proto Tsubame.
>>563100151Very cute.

[Heartwarming news] The English iDOLM@STER account already ran out of shit to post so we're in the clear now
you can't guess who this is
Do we like Vampires?
>>563101979Most of us aren't afraid of the franchise making more money.
It's good now?!
>>563102049I only like my nigga Alucard
>>563102165>afraid of the franchise making more moneyFrom my experience, niche franchises going AAA is never a good thing.
>>563101376That's a loligf
>>563102250pro thinks he's a game director
>>563102165Actually, we are afraid.
>>563102000thats haa! I know because I wanted the nagi from that banner and I got her instead...
>>563102250Niche franchise The iDOLM@STER which has sold out full 50k+ seat domes on multiple occasions
>>563101979We need to watch out if they'll promote Ume's step 3 song. If they do then high chance we get global.
>>563102262It's a jpg not a gif
One of those comic book covers that hype up the new villain and show them standing over the bodies of the heroes with their base turned to rubble, but it's Misuzu on the ruins of Mishiro pro.
>>563102349wow >>563101979they're readying up for the big one
>>563101979I don't know about that, surely they can keep posting about whatever GK will continue to do.
https://media.misskeyusercontent.jp/io/5f9202a7-2fde-4916-bea9-2df663660f6a.webp?sensitive=true
something went wrong with my 10-roll
>>563102250Idolm@ster hasn't been niche since it left the 360 anon. Get over it.
Many are saying this
saying what
>>563103075MochiWHAT
>>563102250The problem isn't it becoming more popular, it'd be the risk of it getting popular in the west which ruined franchises like Monster Hunter and Yakuza when they start catering to the west instead.
another accidental clean shot of the background
>>563102165I thought Bamco browsing /@/ was supposed to be a meme...
Imas but with American teenage girls and instead of producing them you help them get viral on TikTok.
>franchise has like 8 anime adaptations with multiple cours for some of them all with subs, most of which were on crunchyroll>m-muh niche franchise will be exposed to english speakers! someone stop intern-kun!!!
>>563103202we've had multiple shoutouts and they put me in the game because i kept posting about sweet drink years ago. any more info would maybe reveal who i am
>>563103317LOL THEY'RE @NGRY NOW
>>563103317i think CG might have been on youtube too with full subs
>>563095609I want to sniff them.
>>563103317Really killed the narrative with this one...
>>563103129Let's be real anon the west is not the problem with MH, capcom can't program for shit.
>>563103129monster hunter? Ive only played world and the wilds so I guess I don't know about this
>>563103129you will never be japanese.
>>563103642>narrativeit's like 1 guy
i'm turning japanese i really think so
>>563103890I guess you didn't see the thread when the twitter account first launched.
>>563103317It is niche in some aspects, can't play any of the games without using VPNs and even when that's set up there's no english version.Anime is more easily accessible for sure, but that's also a tiny part of the franchise, it's a few of hours exposure to the characters and franchise but the real meat is with the games, with years worth of content not easily accessible.Also, competing with the guy who uses that one kotone image to see who can make the shittiest posts, eh?
>>563103791MonHun used to be way harder with way less leniency and it's created a divide in the fandom between pre-World and post-World fansAlso I wish Insect Glaive was as fun as it looks, hopefully Saki is having a good time
mishta can you tell me where my love has gonehe's a jappy knees boyyy
LL really got ruined by going global
relax... relax...
>>563104000>recognize shitposter>still reply
>>563104093looks tasty
>>563104000>can't play any of the games without using VPNsthat's literally not true lol I play all the games on my tablet and phones and never had to use a vpn
>>563104024I blame styles or skills or whatever they were called. I played it back in the day and holy shit the amount of movement options you have make the game so easy. I think it's even easier now since my friend told me the game auto tracks the monster for you now. No paint ball required.
>>563104074Why'd they draw her like that?
>>563103317Miku posts are always good.
>>563104074Shiki is hot
This franchise desperately needs the horse money
>>563104024It got super casualized to chase mass appeal in the west essentially, yeah.
GLOBAL VILLAGE-marshal mcluhan
>>563103839Don't need to be a jap to know what selling out looks like
>>563103395more like you bought the drink after seeing it in the game and that's the reason why you don't post the details like the date of said reference
brb gonna train my uma
>>563104406We doing pretty good here bro
Bandori went global since its inception and it only got better. West bad and japan good is thinking too black and white
>>563101979Intern kun went to look for the 3 sizes to the backstore
>>563104350thanks, nya!
Cute Mikoto
>>563104559This. It depends entirely on the company and there's no reason shown to believe anything about idolm@ster would start to change now. At worst they'll stop providing 3 sizes, big deal, they're never accurate anyway - see mirai.
I fucking love adult idols
>>563104559We only need to cut off the old like they did with their new game
>>563104559And now the old groups are being taken behind the barn.
It will be fine. Just split with GK global and we will continue as per usual
>>563104174I did have to use VPN personally, otherwise they wouldn't show up on the app store.
>>563104776
>>563104764>accepting this tranny woke shit They can localize it if they want, but don't censor or remove shit. If it doesn't matter then there is no reason to remove it.
>>563104843Poor Julia, the inspiration for the whole ordeal was left for dead
>>563104559I rarely ever hear about that franchise anymore, is it even popular in the west?
>>563104839>>563104843I will miss my wife arisa but it will ne for the better
>>563104852to be fair idk if you use apple or android, and I made my japanese google account ages ago so i never have to use a vpn thanks to it.
We could really use a Koito post.
Kaho's three sizes...
>>563104997No, it only got big in China
>>563104962lose weight
>>563104843>he says, as CG is being taken behind the barn
>>563104997Same, I'm not transgender so I never hear about Bandori or Proseka.
I should stop writing and analyzing so much so I can read more commus. But without writing things down I can't really understand them.Here's the epilogue for Shinography of Bonds, Meguru S-SSR14: The King and the Flea.https://rentry.co/shiny-colors-commu-review#meguru-s-ssr14-the-king-and-the-flea
Koito and Poito naizuri on my peanits.
Would you rather let the fatso sink the ship after he ate for years the most or throw him off the plank? Do NOT ask this question CGPs
Thinkgen of Misuzu
>>563105035It was on Android, and it showed up for you without the VPN because you did do the Japanese account thing, the point is that you do have to jump through some hoops to play the games
>>563105057
>>563105182Sure, go take your HRT.
>>563105309
>>563105134But it's so absurdly big in China its top characters like Sakiko or Anon get more fanart than even BA sluts.
>>563105304>ate for years the mostmmmmmmmm eating
Koitoneposting
>>563105327fair enough.
>>563105513Smooching both.
>>563105347Chiyuki kisses
>>563104469ah, perfect. i was waiting for this.that's a different one and also more of a parfait. i looked into it and the card did release before i made the tribute. i made the mistake of not remembering which year i posted it.however, back then, i barely knew the first CG game existed (where the card came from) and i got that treat for her birthday tribute with having no idea the same cup was in the card. when i found out, i was like>holy shit, this lines up even better than what i originally thought happened!sometimes, being dumb pays off big <3haha u weren't expecting an honest reply
>>563105513Koito's better.
>>563105513Both are fake msgks
>>563105513Wow, they could be sisters.
>>563105513Love leftHate right
>>563105785Kotone definitely fits the bill though.
The yearly SC Survey continueshttps://forms.gle/14rjXUGMCMX7Q3GVADeadline - April 27th 12:00 PM JSThttps://countingdownto.com/?c=7018372
Insane Koito Posse
however, they did put me in the game with the other thing i mentioned
>>563105863We will have her sister for that soon.
>>563105709You didn't even say when the year you supposedly posted said tribute even after being pointed that out to you because people can check the archives and finally see you were lyingb
>>563105134That makes sense, I'll give that anon a pass for thinking West Taiwan is in the west just this once then.
Gun to your head. One branch needs to be cut for the tree to survive. Go.
>>563105119... Are a lie.>B80>3D model is just as flat as Rinze
>>563106112Heh, not this time.
Oh great, he is off meds again
>>563106112vl, or kr if that counts.
>>563105946
>>563106112Mercy kill CG, an honorable death is better than a machine-assisted half-life.
>>563106112ML
>>563106112ML unironically
>>563106040>lyingi just made a retarded mistake, dude, but who cares?found one of the later tributes
>>563106286Is VL even a branch? At the very least, most news posts in the portal site put it in the Others category.
>>563106112ML just so this guy >>563106376 kills himself.
>bandori insulted>get raidedHmmm
>>563106328Breast padding, how do they work?
ML haters disgust me.SideM was the obvious lay up.
airheads
It's time to move on, UncPs, like finally shaving and embracing baldness
>>563106650many already consider it dead. It cant be called alive either
>>563106494why wouldn't it be? it's technically 876 and that'd surely count.
>>563106794I'm not balding yet though
>>563106618>paddingThey're wearing Chihaya's outfit. There's no pads.There's some air inbetween the dress and chest for Rinze since she's smaller than Chihaya though.
>>563106478Okay. So >>563103395>they put me in the game because i kept posting about sweet drink years agohas no basis unlike Taberungo. Noted.
>>563106843That's what they all say
>>563106517So now that the branchwarring didn't went your way you call it a raid
>>563106893That's hot
>>563106814TD is going strong but whatever makes you SC/GK newfags feel better about being late to the franchise.
>>563106910Work on your English, little guy.
>>563106517>ML insulted>shitflinging startsreally makes you thonk
>>563106910>didn't went Jesus Christ!
MLP's were shit stirrers all along?
>>563106951Rinze's chest sweat...
>>563106828In the same vein that 961 isn't a branch. Plus, having an agency/production doesn't automatically mean it's a branch or Kohaku+Aya would be their own branch.
>>563106794you should see me school zoomers. most people in general can't dribble towards their off hand. zoomers are getting kinda old>>563106895>thinking i need you to believe mewwww
>>563107147If we go by that anons fallacious reasoning, sure
So why does he keep replying to himself?
>>563107239unlike 961, dearly stars is an actual separate game where you can produce the idols. you produce kohaku as a part of 765, so that's different.
>>563106112I'm not sure why no one is saying SM when it's the most obvious one
>>563107575because its samefagging shitposting
>>563105258Much appreciated. I missed the thread where you posted the first part but I'm always happy to see more illumines.
>>563107424Because they're mentally ill, it's our version of this guy:https://arch-img.b4k.dev/v/1745604498186.jpg
>>563107575ML is.
>>563107619Always knew it was the SMP
He is trying every angle.
>>563106386>>563106387>>563106446>>563106448>>563106451>>563106495>>563106632Holy kill yourselfBunch of GKkiddies probably gonna drop the franchise in a year
>>563106386>>563106387>>563106446>>563106448>>563106451all of these within 7 seconds
>>563105347Why did the rest of the Higgas cheat on Hiori like that?
The lack of Amana posts is what caused this.
>>563107431Dearly Stars has you play as the idols. So, in a sense, 876 Pro was never produceable.Look, we're getting too semantic. Let's just stick to what the official categories are to make things easier. That said, if sacrificing something to keep the rest alive, I'm with you in sacrificing VL or KR.
>>563106112GK
>>563096014Save up your jewels to release them all for Misuzu next month.
>>563107961I screenshot a bunch of Koitos with the Higans before the reveal since anons were scared that she might be join them.Instead we got Hiori...
>>563107971I'm glad Amana isn't here to see this childish shitflinging.
Samefagging hard huh
LOCKING UP your idol inside an INDESTRUCTIBLE cube of GYARUFICATION
I want to pick Koito up with one arm and carry her around like an accessory..
>>563108445And if my idol's already a gyaru?
>>563108445B-but she's already a gyaru!
>>563108445That sounds like a good thing desu yo
>>563108515This but instead of an arm it's my dick.
>>563108445
>>563108445Don't do this to Tsumugi or Emily
>>563108262>Instead we got Hiori...And that's a good thing!
>>563107575Interesting, right? Barely anyone cares about SM, but for the strangest reason, ML is the one being picked on.
>>563108774Only girls are SMP's and they don't post here
>>563108774How is it strange? It is shitposting and the most people you can annoy the better, SMPs are a minority here so spamming that would hardly do anything.
>>563108995
Who are your favorite idol duo?
Gyaruru Haruki.
>>563109065will the roco bullying ever stop?
>>563108774anyone with a brain knows why they don't choose SM to shitpost. They wouldnt get any attention
Why is everyone kind to Serika but mean to Roco on /@/
>>563108565Thank you INDESTRUCTIBLE cube of GYARUFICATION!!!
>>563109168If you call that being kind then I'd rather be Roco.
>>563108752Nah. I want actual Milk Trucks.
we uh we need some shinosawa hiros right about now
>>563109252Koito's milk trucks...
>Underrated AS vocalYukihoHibikiAzusa>Overrated AS vocalMikiTakane
Give me an idol to draw
And I thought my shitposts were bad
>>563109390Roco
>>563109390yukari pleaae
>>563109390Koito and Poito.
>>563109076Wow that must have felt so horrible...
>>563109390Ume standing on top of a pile of dead AS, CG, ML, SM and SC idols.
>>563109390Amana
>>563109390Can you draw Saki but she is actually Sukuna so she becomes Sakina
>>563109382I feel like Azusa isn't underrated. Not popular but generally acknowledged as a vocal powerhouse.
>>563109076At first I thought this was Bambi and they were doing an Eriko-Mingosu thing but Hiro jumpscare
>>563109418I've made like two posts that have caused thread wide meltdowns before without even mensing to.
>>563109382>YukihoBefore I got into iM@S all I really knew was that Chihaya was supposed to have the best voice so Yukiho's singing really surprised me.>>563109390Yuuki Otokura.

>Project Fairy + Jupiter + DiamantVs>The rest of ASCan AS win?
>>563111137Momoko is seriously too pretty.
Hana... is sexy?
Hana vs Amana who would win?
Biggu
>>563111694Yep, a real looker for sure.
>>563111156
>>563111392Ryuugu Komachi would likely go up against Project Fairy but I believe ACM (Azusa, Chihaya, Makoto) is a better matchup. I guess Haruka, Yayoi and Yukiho could be pitted against Jupiter. The problem now is how the remaining ones stand against Diamant and if Kohaku is allowed to join this group.But, yeah, Kuroi's mostly got this in the bag.
>>563111392Probably? AS' record against them is practically undefeated
>>563112158Didn't Jupiter beat Ryuguu Komachi? Granted, that's not under (You)P's guidance but rather Ritsuko's.
>>563112337I'm assuming it's (You)P here because one of the most consistent themes of the franchise is teamwork and love beats all which means Kuroi is always going to be at a massive disadvantage here unless all of his idols are max power and it's like Week 1 1st Vision AS
>>563111137The duality of maids.
>>563111963Toru
>>563111220Is she really?
>>563111392Chihaya alone clears
>>563112891She has healing magic.
>>563112504>it's like Week 1 1st Vision ASGive Kuroi more(?) credit than that. At the very least, SP Kuroi has Mu La Flaga levels of plot armor: Project Fairy has "+10 to the highest score" buff/skill which is only deactivated on the final round of Idol Ultimate. Basically, that's the only time they play fair and, most of the time, (You)P is fighting for second place. Which is not bad knowing that the first place is fixed/rigged.
Good job girl
Lilja (Regent)
I remember there is a line where Chihaya admitted Miki is the most talented person in AS but I can't find it anymore
He rolled?
Shiho when a dandy old men documentary comes on the telly.
>>563113227I'm overexaggerating because most of Kuroi's idols are still top idols in universe but I'm pretty sure any 961 idol just completely crumbles if they're ever put up against any other top idol. Being THE top idol in this franchise just is not sustainable without a good P unless you're Mai Hidaka whose P is a deadbeat dad.
Was about to post Anzu in /e/ but then got scared of getting banned
>>563113715Leon jobs to 765 biannually and still does global events and terrifies Kotone.
>>563113829You can post girls like Kaho or Kurumi over there without issues because they have big tits. Crazy isn't it.
>>563113715I always believed that the idols under Kuroi tend to plateau because they kinda stop when they're at the top. That almost cliche of losing the competitive spirit. It doesn't help that Kuroi does seem to focus only on Takagi. At least, he's a little less complacent towards Papa Juo.

>>563115625She's asking if you're being self conscious because your eyes are darting all over the place. Then she offers you a kiss "if you really like me that much". >Kissu shite ageyou ka?"ageyou/agete" is important here becuse it means "to give", placing her in a higher position in the conversation.

>Castcolle Natty summaryNatsuha is set to play Sera, a flirty young woman who loves teasing and tormenting her crush Mitsuki. However, Natsuha seems to struggle empathizing with the character, loudly decrying Sera's antics as she reads through the script. Producer butts in, amused by her over the top reactions, and the two agree Sera's personality is the exact opposite of Natsuha's: while Natsuha is the honest and direct type, Sera is crafty and slippery, always stopping short of revealing her true feelings. But Natsuha still finds reason to praise Sera, arguing her ability to toy with and almost read Mitsuki's mind must come from always being attentive and thoughtful of her beloved. Producer is amused again, pointing out how no matter what Natsuha will always notice others' effort and see the best in people.Later, Producer is helping Natsuha practice, and she worries her personality might be leaking into her performance as Sera. The conversation shifts once again to the difference between the two and to Sera's manipulative behavior, which leads Producer to offhandedly ask Natsuha how she would handle making a move on a guy. The question flusters Natsuha and at first Producer apologizes, but watching her get all self-conscious in front of him, he changes his tone and jokingly comments he's beginning to understand how Sera feels. He keeps teasing an increasingly embarrassed Natsuha, who still wonders if this might not end up being a good reference for her acting.
Kaho? Yeah, she'd have sex with an adult man
>>563114573>Someone posted a Madoka pic as response Heh.
>>563118819whoa cute
>>563118819On the first day of shooting, Natsuha seems much more confident about her performance. On break, she approaches Producer to thank him for his help, but then she's reminded of what happened during practice, and how she's supposed to be the direct type... so she goes on the offensive. Fully switching into "Sera mode", she teases him, gets up close and personal, showers him with praise, stopping just short of an outright confession. By the end, Producer is squirming. Finally stepping back, Natsuha calls it payback for his behavior the other day. She heads off back to work, telling him to look foward to the drama if he enjoyed being at her mercy.Not much to comment on. Cute couple.

just had a comedown off some ket and suddenly my repressed memories of 2009 came flooding back and I remember playing the Japanese PSP game in my dinky room, fumbling through with the GameFAQs text guides long before I actually started studying the language. I haven’t touched the series in forever. I remember having a massive crush on Takane though. Since then I’ve only seen U149 and that’s it. What’s changed?

For a SideM newbie like me I think a good jumping in point is watching the SideM anime & doing it with friends who know a lot about the branch! It really helped me follow along what was going on. My only wish is that the producer was a lady. But other than that it’s a great anime.

A summary of the new Ume story content. I'm going to do something a bit unconventional and interleave STEP3 with the song's commus in chronological order.As a disclaimer, this is based on in-game text assets, not something I've actually played. Those assets are in Japanese, which I don't speak, so I'm basing this off of machine translation. As a result, this may not be 100% accurate.A Blank White Page and a Watercolor Hero 1>It's the day after NIA>Ume asks P for a new song for Summer HIF>Her next song is already in progress>But it will not be ready in time for HIF>Instead, she'll sing Campus Mode>P has an unconventional plan for the next song:>1.

Composer will create a second iteration of the song>P does not want Ume to be distracted before HIF>So she will not learn the new song until after HIF>Ume forcibly forgets this conversation

Sora is one crazy gal.
Is Ume's Step 3 surprisingly philosophical, or is anon just making it sound good?
>>563128227But she might get addicted to my masculine scent?
>>563128979Every one has an agenda whenever they put out a summary. You should always take that in mind. Which is why it's always better to read the real thing rather than relying on someone to spoonfeed you on what to think.
>>563128979Latter, it's pretty straightforward. Also he's basing this on MTL which is not a good idea. He should learn Japanese.
>trying to make Fraudna sound like a big deal againThey really should've saved Saki's Step 3 for last.
I'm gonna do a single 10-roll then explode.
>>563128979As far as messages go, it's nothing that wasn't known about Ume.She's focused on competition more than idoling. Discovers the joy of idoling and how there's more to it than competing. Etc etc.
>>563128979>People responding hasn't even read it
>>563128979You read a second hand account from someone using machine translation. You didn't read it
>>563129257I meant addressing the idea that idols are supposed to burn bright and retire fast and making it central to the story and even something Ume initially admires.
I must save my gems for the HIF fes gachas
i think your idol SMELLS
>>563129245Fuck you as usual, Bamco.
>>563129394This, as I much as I want that Ume, I must save.

Oh no, the loathsome Hajime outfit.
>>563129380Well, it's true they're short-lived.There's likely some nuance to it but we won't know with just that, whether it's admiration or just being nonchalant about it.
I don't want to learn Japanese it's too muzukashii just look at Emily. It's been years and she hasn't made any progress.
>>563129687it's over
>>563129141I think you're the one with an agenda here.
I'm the best!
>>563129931>no u
>>563129825Emily's Japanese is better than even the adults at the theater.
Which idols don't have any agenda?
>>563129984Yes, that's correct.
>>563129746I guess even her original career path, being an athlete, would get prepare to know that her active years at the top of her game would be short and that she should make the most out of it.

>>563129931No, he's right. Read the real thing.Everything always gets spoiled pretty quickly, so I thought it would be nice to have it done in a controlled way where everything is properly spoiler tagged and you've got the whole picture before people start mixing lies into their truths.But I've got my limits and my biases. Please form your own opinions.
Jokes on y'all, I can't read Japanese.
>>563130176Right, but you made that clear right from the start when you posted the summary.Suggesting that you "have an agenda" and are "spoonfeeding people on what to think" is ridiculous. You were completely upfront about it being MTL.
I'm playing the game and forming my own biased opinion right now. It's over for you fags.

>>563130754DIE!
>>563130101Athletes have a much longer career expectancy as an athlete compared to idols as an idol. At least an athlete can transition into coaching easily, no one would take an idol who became a vocal or dance instructor seriously unless said idol had a more classical training background before they became an idol. Not to mention top level athletes can sign brand ambassador contracts worth millions of dollars, something you can't expect even from Top Idols. Unless you count celebrities in general.

israel kotone is jew favorite idol?
Double peace Kotone
I think Ume's new skill card and P-item are supposed to be based on the whole burning out thing. The item is automatically burning her just by carrying it. The card needs to be played to keep her going safely.

I actually made this comment on a note because a new complaint I've seen are people going "B-but why are Saki and Ume so strong when they've only been idoling for 6 months..."And then you look at Imas SP which GK takes a lot from and you only get 52 weeks to go from Rookie to Top Idol to Farewell Concert. That's 3 months compared to the 3 years even just being in school.IRL idols even have maybe 1 or two years before to reach the top or get into a good group before their expiry date.

>>563133331In the case of the console games, that's because they have set end points where the idols are allowed to grow into top idol and reset next game. The thing with GK is that it's going along treating their year of progression as canon, so now we have these girls being Prima Stella not half a year in and most already having their issues resolved, meanwhile Yayoi is still poor and the professional idols are stuck in their respective time stasis where they pursue Top Idol forever.Like if the current batch of 1st years ends up graduating, they would probably be Top Idol 4 times over at that point, so I'm not sure how they'll handle it or if becoming professional happens once they become Prima Stella and they're scouted to a production or something, then trapping them in the eternal produce loop.

The only way to make Ume summer Prima Stella is to produce her sister instead and then beat Ume at NIA to eventually mindbreak Sena...
>>563137356
>>563137327Sakuyan is also suited for the role
Do not insult idols on twitter.
I think the author took that Begrazia commu to heart, because P acts pretty different in Ume Step3 than he has in other scenarios and even in earlier Ume steps. Much more comedic in nature.I suppose being able to produce a super idol toy and being so close to his top idol producing dream had him excited.
>>563137861I'm from Tel Aviv and I hate this tweet!

What I'm getting from these Step3s so far is that everyone should just be using Endless Dance.This girl from a different school is just everywhere now.
>anti-AI unit Straylight getting more of them glow-in-the dark costumes
Saki's birthday song is made by Sena and Ume? This is getting confusing.
Ume feels different. For the overwhelming majority of every route it feels like we're in the driver's seat, taking our idol where she needs to go.It feels like Ume is in the driver's seat now. We're still giving directions, but she's in control. Sometimes she knows a few shortcuts that we don't and then we're just along for the ride.
>>563138628Jesus.
>>563138641She's originally from Hatsuboshi and is coming back to the school once her business at Gokugetsu is done.
Saki really is going the burn my bread route in this, huh. And then Rinha plans to return to idoling to stop her?
>>563138641rinha was originally from Hatsuboshi who transferred to 961pro, she's also 10000% going back
>>563139278Nobody cares Rinha. Go away.
NTRですわ~!
i love my shy wife
>>563138841Put your fucking pants back on, anon. We know you're the guy who keeps wanting Ume to rape him.
I know the scenario was great but Saki route being the only one where Sena doesn't win is so awkward.
>>563139430>we
>>563139441It makes the most sense if you look at it in a macro sense where Saki=Sena.
>>563139441Surprise Tsubame surge in Misuzu's route incoming
>>563139390My wife wants me even when I'm producing other idols.
All I do in life is make mistakes...
>>563139441Makes sense in retrospect since damaging Sena's confidence in producing, the thing she was planning to retire from idoling to become, leads her to focus more on that and thus not awaken as a Top Idol by summer. Meanwhile in Ume's route she's not producing Ume anyway and can get sick gains at the Hanami house in Project Stardust Alter.
>>563139491Maybe he means the voices in his head?
>>563139210>>563139375Is she though? It's not exactly unlikely, but right now she's just here for SyngUp! She wants to be an idol again, but I don't see why thay would have to be at Hatsuboshi.
>>563139390No one believed me when I said Hiro is the multiversal cucker.
>>563139684Pro needs to stop having existential crisis from playing MLTD
Oh no, now there's another president. And he wants to be a SideM.
>>563139441That's just the scale that Ume operates at when she gets going. The only thing that can beat Sena that early is Ume, and the only thing that can beat Ume at that level is Project Stardust.
>>563139757don't worry they'll cook the bullshit reason that will either rival or be better than luca's transfer to 283pro speedrun because she's clearly the next playable character for the anniversary
>>563139537>>563139717The plot is perfectly sensible and great even. It's just, there're a lot of things that we just kind of assume to happen regardless of route that they build support commus and stuff around and you'd think Sena winning the first HIF would be one. Now it's an event that can never be referenced in the future. We already have thet HIF scenario trailer where Sena is framed as the final boss and it seems like Saki is facing off against her when that's strictly not the case.I wouldn't want to give up the Saki commus but man it's weird.
Woah
>>563139890I wonder if he is older than the oldest SM, both of the Hanami parents are probably on the young side though
Game theory, is Ume a newtype?
>>563139898>she's clearly the next playable character for the anniversaryNot denying that. But it doesn't mean she has to go back to Hatsuboshi.
Hold up. There's still Tsubame. It's even more likely for Tsubame to win since her Step 3 seems to still be months later so no one will really care that Sena loses in Summer HIF since she'd have lost in Winter already
>>563139928
>>563139898Bro, were not getting Rinha for Anniv. It's clearly HIF themed
There are people who are going to still be in denial that Ume is special after all this. And probably at least one guy still denying that the Hanamis have an idol facility.
>>563140356It's not an idol facility.
>>563140356She is special alright
>>563140026with the way how the game works the route will definitely be linked to the schoolunless bamco is willing to wait for the graduation so that they could put 3rd years + rinha to 100pro or some different agency idk >>563140309yeah i was just thinking about it, but 2.5 anniversary is also an anniversary and i just happened to never specify which anniversary i was talking about
>>563139928Put Rinze in it
>>563140178Some BS will make it so that Tsubame doesn't make it, the only produce idol that's allowed to win their own summer HIF seems to be Sena so far.But I suppose we'll see what happens with Misuzu since she hasn't really been challenged much at all so far. She's also an antagonist position in Tsubame's scenario so she could steal that away too.

>>563140356>Says that there's an idol training machine>Fat nerd thinks that implies an idol facility existsYou are the most obnoxious poster in this general and that's saying something considering we have someone who spams off topic images.
>>563140178That's a lot of Tsubames.
>>563140178Anything is possible I guess. We could go into Misuzu's route and suddenly Lilja is the Prima Stella for some reason.The big three powerhouses of this branch are Saki, Ume, and Sena. It has always been those three. All the way back to Hatsuboshi Commu, those were the three contenders for Prima Stella. And now they're the only three Summer Prima Stellas.Despite that, they wouldn't even break senawinslol for Saki. It's Ume beating the allegations, or nothing. You really think they're going to break it for objectively the least significant playable character?
>>563140681Calm down. You were wrong and you need to come to terms with that.
She looks a little naked
Wait a sec, when did they add Ume screaming ROLLING RICEBALLLL when using her skill? I don't remember that.
>>563140931Wait I thought it was only me realizing this
>>563140919That's great, the less clothing she wears the better.
>>563140931It's new
>Hanami dad is supposed to be an ikemen that looks barely in his 20s and can still dance and sing like an idolNew SideM soon.
>>563140774No U but unironically. You can't even provide concrete proof when challenged to your "opinion".
What are we expecting out of Stray XXXX(other than 7.5 hours of Fuyuko wank lol)???New solos like Veil? And on that note, do you think the new solos they made for MMM, MTMN and KRK will be their solo 2s? Those are obviously made with their Veil roles in mind, specially MMM's, but hers also fits quite well with the theme of the Avant Garde group("wearing scars as decorations").What do we even know about the setting for the live? You know, like Uka with the growing wings stuff or Veil just being straight up a musical play. What do we know about the plot other than Alev-chan?
>>563140405>>563140681Load up the game right now. Enter the Ume event. You get a commu without even needing to do a produce run. Ume tells you point blank that her parents built an idol facility.See this stage? The Hanamis built it. It's part of their facility. They unveil it as part of their idol tournament. For all the idols who are staying at the facility. The winning idol gets to be the mascot of their facility. They decided it has to be an idol because it's… you guessed it! An idol facility.
>>563141106This is not something you should be this upset about.

Will we see the Ume Saki fusion next year?
See that, Pachirisu? They're all saying some stupid shit desu wa.
>>563142312yes>>563142386yeah!
>>563142312Umeki already exists and is in canon the strongest singer in CG which is why she's a voicelet.
I hate Ume so much. Her and her big fat titties filled with milk. I bet if I squeezed them they would splash everywhere and I'd fill my mouth with it and I would drink it all so her newborn child which I forced her to conceive wouldn't have any. Then i"d slap them around like the bags of fat they are.
>>563142312That would require them to work together instead of competing, which it doesn't look like they ever plan to do. They've just been faced with a common enemy who defeated them both, and explicitly decided to ignore her.
If Mr Hanami is really that good looking(and obviously in good condition too cuz athlete), he should pull a Jackie Chun and enter Winter HIF as "Toru Tenjo" or something to make sure his daughters don't get ahead of theirselves.
so saki step 3 is GT bejita?
>>563142446>Ume>Saki>Fusion is the strongest singer which is false because that should be Kaede anywaysHuh?
Male unit consisting of Presidents Hanami (red), Kuroi (blue), and Juo (yellow)
>>563142386Btw, we got even more China Upscale. It's kinda funny I already called China's ability to expand her World a year ago ever since I saw her CM card named Ever Expanding World.
>>563142446Otoha should be voiced by Mizuki Nana now that CG is winding down and they won't need to commit to using her much.

What the hell is voicelet?We used to call them unvoiced.
Domain Expansion: The Middle Kingdom
>>563142607Reminds me of that Operation MaruOtsu from Keroro. I'd laugh if President Hanami turns out to be Wufei.
>>563142784shut up unc, it's voicelet now
>>563142497Rinha please be calm
>>563142446no one cares about your literal who unc. gets mogged by sena
>>563142784It's the new "in" thing like native isekai.
>>563142878I will fucking kill you if you use that word again.
>>563142784Voicelet is funnier.
>>563142497There's a lot of lore here, Ume has a child? How is that possible?
secondary here, is hiro ryonacore?
>>563142964I impregnated her only to slap her titties full of milk, pay attention next time.
>>563142861KEK
>>563143008Yes but from Ume, not (You). Also she enjoys it.
>>563143008It got stale now it's all about liminal core and skelemaxxxing
>>563143027You impregnated Saki's little sister? That's fucked up.
>>563142814At that point, just have China's grandpa show up too and cast Treize's VA
>Ume confirmed for Jack of all trades Master of None shitterThis is why you never put your stock on copy/absorb characters.
My idol is for giving me daughters and late night kisses
>>563143225Kirby and Cell wash your favorite idol
>>563143254Temari is kirby but without the copy ability
>>563143241Who is your idol?
>>563143142Didn't the TV airing has a newer incarnation of Char as P? Maybe have China's grandpa be IBO's Mikazuki.
>>563143135Her body was built for it.
>>563143314temari
>>563143314Anime Kirby doesn't seem to have the copy ability but is broken.
Amana is for loving and cherishing.
>>563143369It was specifically the GQuuuuuuuuuuuuax Char, not old Char.
If anything people put too little stock in ability stealing. Just look at bnha.
>>563143254Cell got washed by Metal Sonic (the idol) and Kirby gets washed by Temari
>>563143562CURSED

We really love Amana. We do.
>>563143552You mean where the guy with a bajillion quirks got beat by the guy who mastered his single sweating quirk?
>>563143663ME
SANA
No.
>>563143678I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 time- Bruce Lee
>>563143718Haruka's breasts aren't that large
...I think the new glow update messed up some MV effects for me...
>>563143678No I'm talking about the MC that takes quirk from its previous users.
>>563143659Sega's blue robot mascot, Miku
>>563143495Why are they spreading their legs like that? It's not very maiden-like...
My idol can use All Fiction.
>>563143820Shut the fuck up Kumogawa, go be a loser elsewhere.
>>563143749It's a Christmas miracle
>>563133207This is when you realize the Ume is still the Rival Character
>>563143759Power of ClumsyPower of NormalPower of RetardedPower of SlutIs Ume really a Clumsy Normal Retarded Slut?
We'll talk when any of your idols has enough bullshit on their resume to fill up a digimon reference book entryThat said, GKP's dimensional vision is digimon-tier stupid lol
Idols but stand users
FACT: Chiyoko would have regular casual sex with P if he'd just have the guts to ask her.
>>563144023Imagine idols with a Digimon evolution tree.>Chihayamon>GyozaChihayamon>UdonChihayamon>DoctorChihayamon
Should she get a new style?
>>563143820Who's the Anshinin in this scenario?
>>563143314Pretty sure that's just King Dedede. Who is canonically also the perfect being.
>>563143749Haruka (SfP ver)
>>563134269That's cute, cool and shiny.
>>563144335Nonowa
There are two types of idols. Geniuses like Saki and talented learners like Ume.
>>563144351LSM but covered by Sakurai
>>563144379Song for Prism isn't real.It's a hypnotically-induced shared hallucination.You've actually been playing Pop Links 2 this entire time.
>>563144351Temari making her own show when?
>>563144351>the perfect beingWow... just like Temari...
So about GKP knowing that there's a way for Ume to win the summer HIF, he also says that "it's a choice he would never make." Which makes sense, as we see in Saki's route where it only happens because Sena sabotages herself.
>>563144491>playing Pop Links 2One session/round lasts 30+ minutes when using the meta team?
>>563144546This baby is what peak performance looks like
>>563144546Temari should have been bigger than an 82.
>>563142835>>563142918It's doesn't make sense since the meaning of voicelet isn't about having no voice

>>563144439Geniuses and talented learners represent two distinct, often symbiotic paths to elite performance. Geniuses (e.g., Saki, Misuzu) rely on innate, instinctual, and irregular abilities, while talented learners (e.g., Ume, Hiro) use logic, analysis, and deliberate practice to adapt and improve. They are not necessarily superior to one another, but rather operate on a similar elite level, with each pushing the other to evolve. Geniuses provide the inspiration and groundbreaking moves, while talented learners analyze, reproduce, and make those moves useful for an idol.
>>563144565This is just the fancy way of a writer saying: I’m going to let the idol who fits my narrative win.
>>563141161>7.5 hours of Fuyuko wankWorth it. >What do we know about the plot other than Alev-chanI expect more xR promotion shenanigans.

>>563144597That's a Produce Mode run.
