Thank you May'n for saving the franchise
>>1911761>4 djs standing in a rowmerm4id ai key visual ptsd...
>Rondo growthTime to wait for another stat cap bump
>>1911765I was initially afraid of AI again but Wero and Neo look too good to be AISlop. AI Slop could never draw an anime girl who looks at me like that, it'd just draw moeblobs.
EN gets Christmas next. Do you think we'll be getting the prizes there too? Might be easier to rank Vs. JP.
lol
Why is Wero wearing an Elsie choker
grok messed up
>>1911874May'n said they're supposed to be modified versions of the rave outfits. Same reason everyone is wearing the crown instead of just Neo-sama.
HAPPY BELL'S EVE!
Today's Santa Bell Day!Though we're supposed to be the ones giving her gifts
Bell is weirdly popular with girls
>>1911881She also sais she requested who should open their mouths and who should close their mouths
She also asked for the "coupling" tin badges with every combination of 2 girls lol
May'n is recommending the bracelet light instead of blade this time
I trust May'n
With at least two decades of music/entertainment work, managing a series/franchise should be the natural next step!
If bandori can last this long, we can too
>>1912252She literally did request it though.https://ameblo.jp/mayn-blog/entry-12951056456.html>このカード絵の衣装が大好きだったのでリクエストさせていただき、>絶対的王者であるオーラがありながらも、個々の信念を感じる表情がこだわりです、、、>キービジュも何度もドーナツさんとやりとりさせていただけたので、>めちゃくちゃ制作がたのしいよーーありがたすぎるよーーRoughly:I really like the outfits on these cards (the rave outfits).So I requested them,The feeling of having the aura of an absolute king, but also allowing a bit of their individual beliefs to come to the surface...I went back and forth with Donuts over and over about the Key Visual,The creative process was pretty fun -- I'm grateful --So yeah, she was involved. Pretty heavily too.
Missed a greentext but you get the point.>>1912197I'll give her whatever she wants.
>giving this much thought about a dead franchisea real pro she is
>>1912337Yes and she also said she requested who should open their mouths and who should close their mouths on the mixch stream
Happy special day to Bell and IRL Kyoko!
>>1912366I've said it before and I'll say it until EoS, if Mayn was running things instead of bushi/donuts we'd be in much better shape. That lady makes her shit feel like it's from an A-list franchise even though she really really doesn't have to. Like lady you can sell 10K+ venues out by yourself/for macross you don't need to lower yourself to us.>>1912435Did she give context? Maybe Sophia/Wero was the real ship all along
https://x.com/TemmaYuuki/status/2004173241179672874Temma grinded the event and got the Hayate card on Christmas
>>1912255>>1912604May'n may be low key into (crack) shipping lol
Forgot to mention their tease about solo songs.Elsie's is slow and hero themed with ballet motifWeronika is bike themed because May'n imagine she is a Harley riderSophia 's focuses on DJThe song releases will be paced 2 weeks apartThe 5th song, the unit song, seems hard according to May'n (hearing that Aisaka-kun and Suzumin arr scared but Jiena is excited)Jiena also teases she will try something new? May be choreography related. She even showed up in the dance gears for the rehearsal which turned out to be a singing session.
>>1913059>ballet motif>seems hard>She even showed up in the dance gearsFront splits in the choreography?
Happy Christmas Dj dacchis
>Just started being able to complete pkpk growthWill I be able to et4 them in time?
>>1913059Sophia's focusing on something other than Neo-sama is better than what I was expecting. Looking forward to the rest.>>1913173picrel
Unichordfag, if you're out there and want the IRL prizes, they're running more or less an identical prize event on EN. You'll probably have a much easier time getting a T10 finish over there than you would on JP (although it's SP Bingo for both servers so you're gonna have to cough up money either way).
>>1913355Might be possible tbqh. I don't understand how newfag accounts can tier when realistically a whale oldfag account should have hundreds of stats over the newfag
Can someone explain how the new Life Protect passive works? I think I get the other 2, but this one is confusing me.
>>1913463Normally I'd agree but SP Bingo means you can out-EP most people if you're willing to invest the $$$ and put in the hours.Although depending on how gimped your EN account is you might not have any Sympathy/Rave/Peaky Growth for the backup squad, which I can see causing problems.
>>1913129At best I can see some kicks and attitudesGoing down on the floor doesn't work well on those stagesOr you can do a grand jete which is like a front split in the air, but that is hard and I doubt the seiyuu can do it
>>1913355>tfw you are a hayacoco fag and only aim for T50
>>1913521Sorry you ninja'd me.Life Protect is basically the opposite of Life Boost.You lose less HP when you miss notes but get a penalty to your score.Absolutely 0 use other than using it to tier the current banner because you get EP bonuses for having the event team. JP hates it and is like rioting about it as we speak.
>>1913531That make sense, thank you. That could be useful on my "full tension recovery" team that I use for really difficult songs that I can't clear with a normal team. But for scoring and tiering, it seems useless like you said.
https://youtu.be/Y5vn2Q9dhes?t=26What does Sophia seiyuu mean by this
Either this event is really skewed or no one likes unigay. I skipped a day of playing and I'm still top 3000 with only one 4* the rest are 3*
>>1913936It is well known that Bushiroad put all their hope in unigay to revive D4DJ and it flopped so hard they had to sell it to Donuts.Now Donuts are trying avoid the tragedy by making EGOEGG the opposite of Unigay in every way...Truly yuri don't sell except for a few lightning in the bottle.
We are the laughing stocks of D4DJ....
By the way the current No.1 player on the ranking changed their name and signature to protest the upcoming (You) x Hayate and (You) x Kokoa fes cards...
But will Donuts listen...?
>>1913936Unichord has basically always been like this. Generally unpopular but their die-hards are hyper-committed. Happy Around is similar.
>>1913954Also a very high percentage of Chinese fans comparing to other units. You can see in the top rankers too.Maybe Kidani should have added them into Bandori...
Keep Haya-coco gayAnd keep Haya-coco aliveThat is all I ask Plus other hundred of million things
We are getting weird collabs again.
>>1914503I hope it's not PM because they're already white-themed
>>1914516At least Kurumi seiyuu seems to love this series
I'm not sure what I need for rondo growth. My back line is ET4 +10% Groovy and Pkpk all growth capped. My front line is almost growth capped but just ET1 with all 65% score bonus, and I can't clear the 4th block.I wonder if these need to be ET4 in the front too.
>>1914668Your frontline passives? Auto support and Life Boost should be enough. Otherwise consider Groovy Support too.
>>1914670Frontline passive is the suite of a normal banner since I'm using a set. But it shouldn't matter unless you miss, since it's groovy, charge, auto and miss usually.You don't need tension recovery unless I missed a notice for getting reduced points for less than 1000. The DJ pass at 2k gives enough tension
Wait a second, I think I've been misunderstanding sympathy passive. While normally it's good for 2 supports, but if you had a team of 4 sympathy and 2 supports that 6 members x 6%. Meaning a 36% score boost.
>>1914715life boost gives 8.5% score bonus at 4ET nowadays
>>1914516At least this one is actually about music/has a rhythm game. Miles better than the slop we've been getting lately.
help me understand something smart bros. my nagi has slightly more total power than my hiiro, so why does the team with hiiro have more power than the other one even in the "without event buffs" section, parameter upgrades are already visible in the character total power so it shouldn't be that
>>1914956club boosting cool
>>1914983i totally forgot about the club, thanks smart bro
>>19149563 color or 3 unit is enough for the algo to shift to unit/color. If you have only 2 of the same, the algo will pick generic boost.
Of all the things to potentially kill off D4, May'n getting married and being straight all along wasn't on my bingo card.
>>1915479I am more worried about the characters getting turned straight right now in the game than the imaginary gayness of the cast (which by statistics only has 2% being gay...)
>>1915498It was mostly a joke but there's a part of me that fears husbando-kun will try to make may'n go home and be a housewife. Although given her age/reputation that's probably unlikely.Now, if Neo, who was abandoned by her dad + manager (male), turns out to also be straight I think I'd have a coronary.
westoid digglers went from shitting Hayacoco and question the legitness of their gayness to cling hard on them as the 'last bastion" of yuri on D4DJTruly ironic
All you people talk about is other fandoms. What about YOU?

Anyway the site for the new feature is using a JPEG as its under construction message:https://d4dj-groovymix.jp/wordpress/wp-content/themes/d4dj/assets/images/common/dforyou/kv-pre.jpgI've been trying to screw around with the file system to dig any other resources out of it but haven't been successful. Anyone else want to give it a try?
>>1915892>MAN is coming for all of usNo! I already got a MAN and I want him stay out of my yuri game
>>1915896Doubt Wordpress can be easily exploited after all these yearsIt is supposed to be idiot proof
>>1915902You can get assets if you have the filepath to them, but figuring out what the assets would be on the new site would basically require dictionary-attacking the wordpress/wp-content/themes/d4dj/assets/images/common/dforyou directory. I don't have the patience for that and I also can't figure out what their login handshake is (mostly because I'm lazy).Oh well. We'll learn legitimately in like a week anyway. Might as well just chill.
>>1915907Nah CMS systems these days have retard proof access management and upload UIsDonuts is probably gonna upload content only on Jan 4th when they go back to work after NY, and even then set the release time to 6th with a few clicks in the UI
>>1915914Normally I'd agree with you but nips are generally retarded/backwards when it comes to anything regarding security.Regardless there's really no point in wasting time trying to crack it. They'll let us know soon enough anyway.
>>1915932Yeah not looking forward it as a YuriGod
Wow Donuts really prepare a pile of shit for yurifags once the new year rolls inI am so not looking forward to 2026
Pretty depressing when you have to go back to work on self insert harem garbage first thing after New Year.I feel for the few remaining yuri sisters (male) at Donuts.

Wasn't D4U (Direct for You) the name of open beta 5 years ago?
>>1915979That's been going on for a while and people still played the shit out of the event on EN anyway.>>1916137To make something like that would imply chatGPT use. People are gonna go nuclear.>>19161731-in-a-million chance but I hope we're finally getting that cast age-up and not the 3D Models I've seen some speculating about.
Japanese waifufags who were happy with Toru and Groovy Fes 3 are hoping for characters to be able to pronounce your name like some other games do.

>>1916529I have more JP borders backlogged if you want them. Just be cautious with your comparisons because that event was a Raid which, like Medley and SP Bingo, have higher-borders than normal events because you get bonus EP that isn't present in the other event types (Ticket Medley, Super Raid, the SP Cards themselves).However, if you are the gaijin who (I think) stole T1 on JP and pissed off all the Unichord fans over there than I applaud you.

>>1916531For context, this one is Ri4's Stage. Despite being mid-tier popular, in JP Ri4 has the biggest whales on the server in my estimation.
>>1916532No, I just want to shitpost how unpopular Unigay are> the gaijin who (I think) stole T1 on JPGood, No.1 (dogpoo)is an anti self insert Kokoa fan. No.2 (Yuta) is a Hayate fan who supports self insert and the Mato Slave event last year.
>>1916533Only thing I'll note about this is the prize was way fucking better for Abyssmare than Unichord. At least for AM you were fighting for the actual baseballs *and* the bromides. IDK why they did Unichord fans dirty with just the bromides.Anyway I'll stop shitposting and let you do your magic.
>>1916536events with SP cards also tend to have higher bordersalso Ri4 irl seiyuus are all mega popular right now (except Kurumi's lol)

>>1916975My conclusion is that borders are too affected by SP card rewards and irl prizes. You can see UniChØrd fans were fighting over T100 hard, while Abyssmare fans didn't.
Finished the event story. Michiru and Lumina part is pretty funny.Hayate and Kokoa part is pretty moving.Does the event itself have area dialogues, or does it only have the event dialogues from the club item?

Haruna's card story was pretty fucking gay.Maybe donuts listened to our complaints and all hope for yuri is not yet lost.
>>1918059Gay with whom?Thinking about rolling but too many banners going on right now
wtf are these new year cp cards man... do i really have to buy 2(two) 10k diamonds pack to max 1(one) card?
>>1918326Nyes
Same Old Noa!
Aoi Growth Card has a gay Tsubaki story
Some JP Kyoshino fans are legit mad at the Kyoko x Neo cards
Mom was working on Saki Arabian cosplay (from Cutopia event I guess)
>>1918326Also it doesn't come with gems as usual...Is it some sort of bizzare whale test but only for 5 units
>>1918450Wasn't it just the one guy from 5ch having a mental breakdown because he thought one (out of context btw) line of dialogue from KyoRinku white day meant KyoShino was canon?
>>1918321Haruna card story was Haru/Miyu.I forget which one, but one of them also ended up with Kurumi and Miiko collapsing on Haruna.
>>1918807Some people were arguing on Twitter too... it got pretty nasty that alts were made
>>1918859Yeah this guy, no?He made all the same points that were in the 5ch thread, so I assumed it was just the same guy having a schizophrenic episode.

Can you explain again how to get the kyoneo card?
>>1919216https://webstore.d4dj-groovy-mix.com/
>>1919239It's CP for now, but if they add SP exclusives, I think I will quit...
>>1919351IIRC The seasonal CPs have always been paid-only.The issue this time is they went way fucking overboard with multiple unit sets. Usually it's just one card for New Years (e.g. the KyoNeo Card) and one card for Summer (the EimiDate apron-only variant)
Okay wtf, the second node was so much harder than the final rondo node.
Pretty cool
>>1919846I like the addition of the shortcut this time. Makes the map much less frustrating to grind than the peaky one was.
Are they really delaying Direct For You info until 5th and drop the patch on 6th?
>>1920215Probably. New Years is like Japan's #1 holiday so I doubt many people are even in the office right now.
Do regular CD chains carry DJ CDs in Japan?Besides CDs and the actual store?, what other merch is there that can be found in chains, if any.A friend asked if I wanted anything when he was visiting, but they're not stopping by tokyo this time so I'm not quite sure what they can find besides chains.Yes I'm that guy who would give them a list of items. But it's not like I expect them to get it. If they find it they find it.
>>1920512D4 stuff is mostly in anisong-focused stores like gamers, etc.However, IIRC Tower Records had D4 stuff last time I was there, but that was while Bushi was still involved with the franchise. Tell your friend to try there. They might have older CDs lying around (Donuts stopped putting out CDs after they took over. The new CD is made-to-order and isn't going to be in stores).
>>1918856Haruna laughs like Sophia in that card...
One day before (You) purge yuri from the once great D4DJ (now an Idolmaster ripoff just like T7S)
>>1920770>Idolmaster ripoffT7S actually has most of the girls having no romantic feelings towards the player. I don't think there are many games with canon male MC having only a few of the girls have romantic feelings towards him. It's just a single one of them being that prominent.

Being Yuka fan is suffering
I keep getting kicked out since the patch
Explain Direct for you to me and how we yuri fans should play.I have to choose only one character?
Looks like JP fans are not happy with this whale bait updateThey want solo songs for every characterAnd 3 free daily plays for Groovy difficulty
>>1921869tl;dr>First 3 plays of the day (F2P) give you one voting ticket>Use voting tickets to voot for future content (Ex. current vote is for who gets a solo song)>If you want to voot more than 3 times, you need to spend 30 PAID diamonds per vote.>I think there are also bundles in the shop to get voting tickets.>Whoever vooted the hardest for their character each month gets a title + special voice lines on the home screen.So whale bait like >>1922000 said, but not nearly as bad as people were thinking it was going to be.Since the vooting is about content, I imagine EOPs are getting cucked though lmao.
When will Tsubaki finally grow up?She is more teenager than teenagers (Hayacoco)
>>1922014The bundle is boost tickets for the voting ticket dropsx times boost tickets work for only x minutesFor example, the most expensive one is 10x boost for 10 minutes that boost your normal 90 votes to 900 votes for about 2 to 3 songsIt is such a bad deal even JP payers want the boost tickets to come with some gems and a cap on how many times you can purchase play ticketswith gems (an upper limit like the 3 free plays)
>>1922026Personally I think gatekeeping future content behind whaling contests is a stupid idea no matter how it goes. If the masses get their way the already-popular characters will just hog all future content, but if a rich JPfag hypothetically giga-whales and forces content for an unpopular character/unit down everyone's throats people will just get angry.
>>1922038Yeah I think the supporter ranking is fine if rewards are just cosmetics and irl souvenirsCould have expanded it from only top 3 rankers thoughThe theme ranking is toxic. Donuts can adjust it by picking candidates so it is not going to be just one or two characters hogging everything, but it still feels scammy when it is tied up to who gets songs, as well as nebulous promise like who gets more roles in an event story etc
>>1922040yeah the oshi contest is harmless. Just a way to show-off and even to give fans of the units who aren't getting events often these days (rondo, etc.) more ways to engage with the game.
ay yo hold the fuck up what do you mean they bought tsubaki a fucking body pillow for her birthday?
>>1922060It is even U shaped for easy scissoring
>>1922041You know what I would do?There are 32 x 31 / 2 = 500 pairings of main characters I would do relationship events based on monthly voting but promise to remove a pair from the pool once they get the event
>seiyuus can see their characters are at the bottom of popular rankingThis is really a bad idea
>>1922069based
I'm probably very late to ask this but did they nerf the hell out of getting event points? Unlocking a five-part side story should not have taken so many songs.
>>1922326What is power creep
Happy birthday, Tskuib A!
https://youtube.com/watch?v=WWBwYo3teycYou can easily tell where Jiena is supposed to dance(2:00 mark)
Sounds like Christina Aguilera's feel this moment
>>1922516Feels a bit incomplete without her fellow Abyssmates...
Did NVs have a birthday line before?
>>1922326They nerfed the hell out of the story requirements. It's really annoying.If anything, EP is super-inflated compared to what it used to be because of the long song bonus (which doesn't exist for Medley IIRC).
>>1922608New feature for this year.
Sick way to tell us Tsubaki won't get laid this year either.
May'n's going to be at an anime con in washington DC next week.I wonder if she'd sign Abyssmare Merch (she's going to rep herself/Macross, as usual).

>>1923062https://x.com/D4DJ_gm/status/2004386938267058496You should support EGOEGG who are gay with Mascarpiece.
>Happy Around are clownsWhat do DONUTS mean by this
>>1923028The choreography makes me miss Peaky lives. They were able to match that intensity IMO. I wonder how Eggs will do at the collab live (I might dislike their in-game story but their music has only been getting better)>>1923086Not just clowns. They seem to be the entire circus.
>>1923147Seriously? Not Photon?
>>1923147egoegg story itself is fine so far but a voiceless Toru is literally just padding and distracts from the eggs the story is supposed to be highlightingI miss Eimi's monologue
holy shit Aoi has a huge whale despite not in a theme contestSaki whale and Ibuki whale are hard at work tooHayacoco fags are fighting over Kokoa and ignoring Hayate for some reason
>>1923151Photon too I'm just retarded and forgot to mention them lmao.
>seasonal doggo lines has Bell sic her dog at EimiWhy does B hate A so much?

>>1923077Thanks anon, hope RevoAnth and OTAKEBI make it. When the group was a trio they had a few songs, really good songs, while I don't mind if those get in, it would feel bad leaving the later members out.>>1923450Idk about other yuri chads but I'd take an asmr between HayaKoko. But this isn't my thing.
>>1923450If Neo wins and turns out to be both straight and a bottom I think I'd blow up donuts HQ in minecraft
>>1923450That's actually pretty good reward, but sucks for girls who don't have whales in fanbase.Also, how the fuck are they decided to do sleeping ASMR and not having Miyu as possible candidate
>>1923450>Hayacoco are going to be excluded from all the future votings if this is the kind of reward Donuts gives, aren't they?Based. They should only get duo contents.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9F7Fhoc6HHc
i dont want ANY girls filrting with (You)
>>1923552I wish, anon, I wish.I was worried when Mikumo's yandere setting was revealed 2 yeas ago and she was going to be "yandere" for (You).I was relieved when Doggo turned out to be very yuri despite the writer being more adept at NL.Then they added Toru, and went all in on idol aspect.
Interesting that D4DJ is brought up after that new hololive new game looks samey as Bandori & Proseka. I mean, sure, but knowing that the average normalfags complained so hard that the devs put "no scratches & sliders" feature makes those tweets feel sad. Don't even get me started on full plane game like Arcaea...
>>1923607nothing wrong with adding baby modes
>>1923618It already had Easy and Normal tho
I am taking crazy pills? The new monthly lines feel old.
>>1922080lmao they only show top 8 now
>>1923508also no hiiro despite her already having the one asmr card from halloween + her being a streamer in-canon.
Just learned that someone from Reddit is the Saki mega-whale putting them in 1st for voting.I wonder how JP feels about the fact that gaijins will be determining their content from now on.
>>1923765D4DJ has always had a reputation of being popular with gaijins, like how nuBandori is with Chinese.
>>1923716Japan, truly the shining bacon of menhera
Getting the bad end where the bitch goes to fucking jail was very satisfying.
EN player here, those 7th sisters songs are kinda nice and i think some of you are familiar with the franchise, so can (you) please recommend some songs? if it's too off topic also recommend some d4dj songs (you) like
>>1924280>>1602287 is the T7S general. If none of our sisters are lurking here you can try asking over there.As far as D4 songs, I'm a peaky/abyssmare-fag all the way but there's songs from all the units I like. Highlights are:>HapiaraTrance Tours>PeakyPeaky Peaky & PeakyInvincible MomentOne's BelievingPeaky FORCEI'M A HERO>PhomaiDiscover UniverseHeart to Heart>M4Live LifeSTARTGOATI will never dieWIN-WINDesperate Situation>RondoBlack LotusWorld Etude>Ri4The IF DancerMaihimeBarkley and the Chocolate Factory>UnichordHajimari BeatRefactoring Utopia>AbyssmareGet into the AbyssmareWINNERI AM THE BESTAXIS the WorldNow or Never>Lynx Eyes/Call of Artemis/HagsEZ DO DANCEDo the DiveSurvival DanceI'm Proud>ABCDGet on the topKate-kan alright>EGOEGGAnger PowersearchlightkurushidaisukiHonestly I could probably list like 15 more songs easily (I like the music in this franchise a lot lmao. It's probably the main reason I'm still here).Also if you like Techno in general look up the instrumentals (most of them are on the wiki, beyond that you'll have to track down the singles to get them). Almost every single one is amazing.
EGOEGG "main story" having a faggy sexless self insert is really a shame.Even Gakuen Idolmaster is giving its Producer a seiyuu for the next chapter. (male seiyuu of course since it is Idolmaster tradition)
IT TOOK 3 YEARS FOR KOKOA TO REALIZE THAT HAYATE IS STEALING HER WARMTH BY HANDHOLDING
I will miss hayakoko
>>1924521What happened?
Saw the egoegg interview in /jp/ threadThe seiyuus all want an animeBut how can they do Toru in an anime
>>1924546Mikumo bad ends are canon and the little bitch dies in Episode 1, allowing the Eggs get to actually be good characters.Either that or a prequel where it's the events leading up to their initial breakup.
Why does Mikumo wear a yuri flower on her lapel
>Mikumo is also obssessed with the other eggs and stalk themwhat a waste, what a waste. all spoiled by a self insert.
I love Tsutae Talk so much bros..
It is so sad people care less about eggs than doggos. What went wrong?
Doggos are Watari-gated probably because the writer don't know how to write them
>>1925098Watari seems pretty into Doggos. Rolled for all the Doggo gachas (all 3 of them lol).
Doggos are better
>>1925103Eimi is voiced by the great Igoma Yurie while Toru is voiced by 404 NOT FOUND. I hate how retards complained about Eimi's lengthy monologue because I am sure that is why we got Toru.
>>1925088doggos didn't have a self-insert MC ruining their plot.The issue with Eggs is that their main appeal is their IRL lives, which EN largely doesn't care about.
>>1925130JP aren't talking about them as much as they did with Doggos either
Me thinks issue is that there's too many units now
>>1925140the game launched with too many units. idk who I'd cut
>>1925143Ri4 should be added later.CoA shouldn't be added at all.So replace CoA with Ri4 on the schedule.
>>1925148CoA was good from a narrative POV IMO, but with how much star-power was there + the insistence on their being a "side unit", it wasn't right to add them to the game.IDK what the writing staff's original plans were but having them win D4FES #2 to set up a "CoA wins this round. When will our heroes be able to overcome them???" kind of plot was a terrible idea in hindsight, since it's obvious they're never coming back.
Add them to the game as playable, I mean. Keeping them as dedicated background characters like LMO would have been better.
>>1925148>>1925171this could work, I like the riris but delaying them is understandable.
>>1925193I can also understand why they were in from the word go. If they were added later they might have been universally hated like what happened to Morfonica
>>1925343>universally hatedlol, delulu
I miss Tsubaki's singing
I miss Tsubaki
Abyssmare tickets are up for gaijin. I'll be there IDK if any of you are in a position to fly out.
>>1925540My passport expired last year. I've been meaning to renew it but I was thinking if I even wanted to travel in the first place.I might do so since I started getting into umas
>>1925581Well it's not until next month and D4 is D4. You might have time if you go to the post office ASAP.
>new Revue Starlight anime announcedD4 sisters...
I only watched first episodeSome weird anime about monsters coexisting with humans in a post apocalyptic event?
We are getting 4 songs from the anime, but only for a month.
RARE LONG HAIR AOI
Fire Emblem Engage?
Drakengard?
>>1925649We are ok tho, at least D4 has two seasonsBut that new bandori game tho...
>>1925761That and the new hololive game might finally kill us
>>1925761>But that new bandori game tho...After sif2 and their bad console games?I think it'll die before us
>>1925761Any lesbians like Haya-coco in the 2 new bands?
>>1925764We were already slated for killing by the Girl Band Cry game thoughI just want to enjoy what is left for us but Toru is taking that scraps away
>>1925761I'm more concerned the recent whale bait is a sign of monetary issues desu.
On the bright side it looks like One Note won't be a rhythm game>>1925781Some people were speculating that this year's financial will decide the fate of ours, so they added a whale function over the new year and are trying to pump up the money this year.I am more concerned that EGOEGG are losing fans instead of gaining fans because of in-game story events. At this point Donuts may as well shut us down and run EGOEGG as an indie idol group like Denonbu is doing.
I will support Haya-coco as long as they are still a thing...
>>1925784Well, consider that I'm not spending money now for reasons, though in the near future I'm looking to. Mainly things like the monthly passes and maybe some paid diamonds for a roll or two because everything else just doesn't look worth it for the price.But the way they are doing things is definitely not conducive to me wanting to spend money.I mean, don't be so obviously a cash grab you know.>>1925786Considering they are the main reason I started playing in the first place, they are my other concern.Though tbf most of it is based more on nebulous rumours and potentially shitposting. But that's definitely causing me to take a wait and see approach.I want to see the EGG event with my own eyes first.
>>1925831what nebulous rumours about hayacoco??
>>1925882Not them specifically, but it's all that bullshit about self-inserts.
>>1925904Oh, what can I say, it is a genderless blank self insert the EGOEGG girls waste their time interact with in half assed teasing scenarios that I doubt self inserters find interesting
>>1925784So I should cancel my subscription?
>>1926040I wouldn't unless you want to quit in general. EGOEGG's story is a mess but I don't see why that would kill off the franchise. If anything I imagine they'd just bench eggs like they benched hags/doggos and move on hopefully to focus more properly on the established units but apparently donuts takes after bushiroad in that department to a fault.
>>1926077Imagine all the things I could buy with $3.21nothing...
>>1925395nta but the somehow managed to make the second most mentally ill band thus far boring,I know at least several people who quit due to them and only got back for Ave Mujica.
Oh the new gbp doesn't have the og bands. The old bushi slaves are getting deprecated
>>1926092Wrong. You can buy 1 (one) soda.>>1926234They'll have more time for DJs. We're gonna be alright, sisters...

>>1926341Can't get between yuri if there is no yuri...
>>1926338I think she more or less disappeared off the face of the earth. Last I saw her she did some art for a music video for Tsumu I think. Maybe she got married?>>1926341Toru had a last name?
>>1926341i dun gedit
>>1926359That's too bad
>>1926359Yeahhttps://d4dj.fandom.com/wiki/Kusakabe_Toru>>1926379Toru happened to share name with a yuri destroyer from some random Web Novel >inb4 the author was hired to write EGOEGG stories
Realistically how can Donuts walk back Toru
Surprise Abyssmare stream soonThen Sophia on EGOEGG radio
>>1926530How important is she anyway?If not really, as it should be, then put her on a bus.
>>1926556instrumental to bringing eggs back together for some reason
>>1926559If they are back together then job's done.
>>1926530What >>1926564 said. In EGOEGG story #1 he outright says "I'm the kind of person who likes to stay in the background and observe" and only decides to take action when he sees that Hare is incapable of affecting the status quo on her own which is shit writing and makes me not like Hare as much as I should but w/e. One EGOEGG is back together he'll hopefully just say NO WAY FAG when the eggs try hopping on his dick and fade back into the shadows.
Reading the reviews in-game, people seem more pissed about the skip function getting nerfed than Toru itself this time. There were more complaints about Toru last vol but overall rating was higher.
>>1926649Well Ep. 2 has like 30,000 choices with GAME OVER as the penalty. So I imagine for people who have no interest in the story and just want the diamonds having to keep redoing choices is tedious.
>>1926783I haven't read like the past 10 stories. When did we get VN game over choices?
>>1926828It's the special gimmick of the EGOEGG stories. Toru has to make decisions and if you make the wrong one you get booted back to the episode select menu and can't progress until you do it right.
>>1926783The game over is fucking repetitive tooThey reused voice segments and gave them different names
Apparently everyone who bought the new year CP card packs got the irl gift, except of course those haters who gave low ratings to EGOEGG events.
Is 2026 the year Donuts reveal that they hate us yurifags? I guess 2024 Mato Slave was Donuts' doing, not Bushiroad's...
>>1927309BothBushi also released matoslave merch around that time, which means they had the ip rights.Also, do not forget hayacoco was born under bushi direction.Donuts simply does not know how to handle d4dj, and considering they stated the budokan was cancelled due their logistics are in no way comparable to bushi's one, they are just doing whatever they can to keep the project afloat.>but the yuriHayacoco is considered satan for westoids and on jp the reception is so-so due the unimare favoritism, then sasakoi happened. So they take it yuri does not sell. But failed to understand digglers wanted yuri with existing characters prior unimare.
I can't be mad at them for trying new things, the franchise was dying.
>>1927341But Watanare sold like hotcakes and Watatabe did well tooIt is almost like yuri only doesn't sell when it is Bushiroad underfunding and mismanaging it (Sasakoi, Hayacoco etc)
I am fine with new things even Eimi monologues, EGOEGGs and D4U whale bait but Toru sucks dicks
Saw some Japanese fan suggesting that they should get Aoi Mio, Jiu's ex seiyuu, to voice Toru
>>1927349>Watanare sold like hotcakesNowhere like nukitashiand both nowhere like cinderella grayA Cinderella Gray collab can extend gurumiku lifespan atleast for a month.
>>1927355Not sure where you heard that, but Watanare literally robbed theatres from Scarlet and Zombieland Saga to extend its runAnd took over top sale ranking for Comiket doujins last monthWatatabe soundtrack CDs sold so well Pony Cayon say they haven't seen something like this before, and they couldn't produce enough to meet the demands. Aftrr the anime, the manga also ranked top spot along with One Piece in a bookstore chain because it was sold out everywhere else.
I will drop the game if they reveal Hayacoco is just a phase...
Did they forget about Baseball Abyssmare on EN?
>>1927341After reading May'n's latest blogpost, I think Donuts really does have a severe logistics problem going on behind the scenes. Allegedly May'n brought in her own staff to help run the live next month. On top of that, Merm4id-P and ACE Crew already have to basically run M4 lives on their own.>>1927378EN always fucks with the event order for Christmas/New Years so that the holiday events can run on-time. They'll probably just run it after EGOEGG 1 so they can tie the IRL Prize to the Abyssmare Live in February.
>>1927358You missed how the first volume of the BD sold 1.5k while Nukitashi BD first volume sold 7k and Cinderella Gray sold 10k per volume.If you had bet on watanare to be the yuri revolution and overtake hetshit it did not happen.The closest was Mahoako last year, and even Lycoreco years ago if you take their yuribait as yuri.But the one who paved the way was Citrus as the closest thing of yuri overtaking hetshit.So Donuts should ask Kidani for a loan to collab with Citrus and give us that hayacoco kiss card to keep the yuri alive.
>>1927393Watanare didn't have any merch bonus like other bds you mentionedNot that it matters because Donuts like het and hate yuri
>>1927393I thought Shitrus+ would be comfy happy feelings. It's just more drama.
Rolling long hair Aoi?
All those people shitting on the chocie system is actually stealth yurifags disguising their positionHalf of them would disappear if it is Haru making the decisions instead of Toru
>stealthwhat a sad life to be on an anti yuri dumb crusade in D4DJ of all fucking places
>>1927886The only crusade here is against Donuts's anti yuri dumb directive
>>1927872I'm not a pussy so I just shit on Toru directly.I like the choice system, but I don't understand why they had to fuck with the skip feature over it. If someone doesn't want to read the story just let them not read it.
>>1927909The yurifag app developers at Donuts made it deliberately so the events can get low star ratings.
When will Hare be corrected?
Can we develop an estimate of how much the whales are spending on the ranking?I think they get 90 to 130 points for one song without boosters.
>>1927963Let's talk about the yuri potential.Hare says things like "I need you" to Raika randomly.Mikumo stalks Hare and Raika and Jiu over the past 3 years.
>>1927968Hare is an asshole. She's probably just using those word to manipulate Raika. Don't yurifags loves those kind of things...
>>1927964I have 2610, and I think I only missed one day
>>1927971Let's assume they can get 6 Cats Eyes in 10 minutes. That is 7800 points for>30 paid dia per song180 paid dias i.e. 180 yen>12 boosters for 8000 yen on webstore667 yen>total847 yenFor 7800 points, that is 9.2 yen per point.
>>1927981Brainfart. 9.2 points per yen....
Basically just remove one zero to get how much yen they spent. Most people spent 1k to 2k except for the solo song to candidates, Bacon spent 120k on Ibuki and poor Sorain spent 100k on Saki only to be beaten by multiple Towa fans spending 10K to 40K.
I wonder if whales are learning after that first round that half a dozen dolphins are stronger than a whale.
>>19279861k is about 6 US dollars
>sparking is 90K for 2 cardslol people are not spending much on D4U

New theme rankingBeach voice drama with 4 girlsHaya-coco are in the candidate pool
>>1928302I'm still shocked that the Towa brigade just completely demolished everyone else out of nowhere.I think another big factor in future polls is going to be everyone purposely holding back their tickets until the absolute last second, so people won't know who's going to win until it's too late to do anything about it.>>1928347Rooting for you HayaCoco-fag. At least a beach episode isn't going to be self-insert shit. Maybe they listened to the backlash.
>>1928390>I think another big factor in future polls is going to be everyone purposely holding back their tickets until the absolute last second, so people won't know who's going to win until it's too late to do anything about it.Lmao.

Alright, looks like for 8000 yen, you get to boost for 2 hours, playing 50 songs on average and getting 45000 points to 65000 points while spending extra 1500 pai dias.

>>1928448This was always possible in medleys and raids. You kinda have to pay attention to the top 10s.>>1928556Maybe in moon runes there's a hidden meaning to not spend? Also the mentality is just different in DJs. Every top rank player I talk to through comments always talk about giving their all and doing their best. So the phrase may be taken differently.
I really like Bon Bon Fire... Too bad it doesn't hit as hard since I usually listen to this in my car with premium speakers.The bass just hits so much different...
For Winterfes, is the stamp lottery an actual lottery? Or do we know what is where?
>>1928618Mion and Maika are my favorites. I really need to get to know the seiyuu names better, but they're still relatively new.
>>1928680Are they really seiyuus if they only perform in real life 3D idol events?

Got Miyu. Time to save for valentines
>5 cards>none freeFuck Donuts
There's something surreal about hearing Bon Bon Fire in my game.
Had a dream where Donuts added an event type where you have a map for Yoba like Growth mode but the paths you take correspond to story choices and they will be counted as votes for the next story so the story can be skipped because choices were already made in the previous event.Waking up, I am now worried if Hayacoco will be abandonded by Donuts if they don't rank in top 4 for the upcoming theme ranking.
>>1928978One of them is randomly free at 500K

The main story menu is clear. We are only in the 2nd volume of chapter 1 of EGOEGG story. There are 5 chapters and chapter 1 has 8 volumes according to tidbits from seiyuu streams.The naming of volume and chapter is kind of backwards in English.

Why is no one voting HAYATE
Why should probably add some in game item rewards for losers
At this rate Kokoa is going to the beach without Hayate
>>1930633>>1930668I presume the hayacocofags negotiated to push one of them.No way they'll get both unless they are super rich and dedicated.
>>1930673Kokoa is propped up by a single gaijin whale (top ranker from Christmas event)Both Hayate and Kokoa have no dolphins... their fans all F2P this DFY shit...Meanwhile Noa and Kurumi are propped up by multiple dolphins. Rika looks shaky with one big whale so she may be thrown out by Sophia and Elsie in the end?

The beach voice drama is shaping up to Noa lusting after 3 cuties
fuck, egoegg radio is ending
>>1931502That's a bummer. Is anything going to be replacing it or is donuts losing the radio timeslot outright? IIRC the show played on an actual radio station in Osaka (unlike the other "let's hype up the live" shows, which were all internet based).
>>1931527But Donuts own the station...
>>1931539Seems dumb by donuts to willingly throw out their only terrestrial means of advertising the project.Did they say what program was replacing it or no?
>>1931576The new monthly DJ events called EGOEGG Showcase I guess.This is on top of DigNite I think. Dignite will be headlined by a non-EGG seiyuu, accompanied by 2 eggs and other guests. It is hosted by Donuts.Showcase will be headlined by all 4 eggs, maybe with guests. It is hosted by Peta (Donuts' seiyuu agency)
on events that give you a sp card how many copies do you go for?
>>1931684One
>>1931582Oh I didn't see the EGOEGG showcase thing until now. Good to see they got themselves a stable gig set up.Looks like the main ticketing site they're using is gaijin friendly too, which is nice.
What will be announced on 21:00 tonight?1. D4Fes2. Photon/Rondo Live3. EGOEGG Breaking 2nd (joint live series)4. collab with new haremshit5. Toru seiyuu6. End of Service
>Happy Around 6thI sleep...>UniChØrd 2ndAaaaaaa wtf less than a year to the 1st one which took them 3 years is EoS coming
>>1932031I would have preferred Photon or Rondo but at least know what the lives are more than like 1 month in advance now. If anything my EoS fears are less than they were before.Peaky's my #1 though so the fact that they seem to be on their way to joining Rondo/Photon in no-live hell is a bummer. At least I've got the abyssmare live next month to look forward to.
>>1932014Isn't song removal first? Then EoS?
I think the new Key Visual was designed to tick as many fetish boxes for me as possible.
I will fucking kneel if mei irl outfit also has an underboob windowHowever>No cleavage for Rika>Despite Nacchan pretty much was the only one to show off her tits on the irl outfitsBOOOO! You will loose more money donuts!
>>1932585I miss Himarin
>>1932585Marika face looks like Yatile art
>>1932585Holy sexoAlso, Rika has cleavage. Zoom in.

>>1932936I've been mixed on these so far. I appreciate May'n's enthusiasm but shitting out 5 songs in like ~3 months for one live might have been a bit over-ambitious.
>>1933042I thought solo covers are something the VA picks?This one is also no too bad. The beat is fine but the accompanying sounds need some growing.
>>1933072These are original songs
Both of them appeared in anime Turkey!
>>1933072To be fair May'n said in an audio blog post that Sophia's is supposed to be enhanced at the live since she told her staff to leave spaces where Aisaka can do "DJ play" (her words not mine. She probably meant record scratches, FX stuff, etc.)
>>1932902Is no way comparable to previous onesalso, did she deleted a lot of her previous photos with merm4id?
Michiru gets a lot of cute Birthday art probably because she has a large following of teenaged girls
this self insert protag shit was sutpid as fuckoh no the girls are all dumb they need the supperior male me to guide themstop this
>>1934264They can salvage this by making Toru a girl... everyone loves Renako...
got real greedy and did some impulse spending, i have 8 sp usbs and enough exchange tickets for 1 member, what would be the ""best"" thing to do? usbs on noa (currently 2 ET) and exchange ibuki or save 4 usbs for another sp member? on one hand idk if a 0ET groovy fes card would have any value but on the other hand that ibuki is extremely cute...
>>1934264The dumb part for me was how they were all fawning over him at the end.One of the worst traits of self-inserts imo.My expectations were already low going in, the start wasn't promising, the middle... I was okay with it, maybe I just didn't expect much. But somehow the ending managed to exceed my already low expectations.>>1934288Didn't one of the LLs have You being a cute girl who is also an actual character? Or so I got the impression.They really need to understand the simple math that +1 cute girl = good.Though I also have the suspicion that they are cutting costs on the VA...
>>1934302After thinking about and getting over the initial shock at how God-awful this story is (I read it on JP last month), IMO Toru + the plot being about how EGOEGG broke up and is reforming are supposed to represent the fact that the current crop of IRL eggs were born of a talent search where (You) got to help revive EGOEGG by donating superchats on donuts' streaming site.Touching as that is on-paper, in-practice it made the plot something that is easily the worst thing this franchise has ever produced. At least All Mix was CGDCT and Xross Beat was a shitpost. This is actually asking to be taken seriously.
>>1934264>they need the supperior male me to guide themHow deep rotten on internet discourse you need to be to believe the average JAPANESE male self-insert was made to be superior than the girls fawning for him.Special? yes; Better than the girls on life? absolutely no.And Toru is no exception.
>>1934369hes is LITERALLY explaining the girls how they feel and what to do
Absysmare SLOT next
Damn, the Abyssmare SLOT cards are so yuriYuri sis won
One of longest and best stream everThey even did Winner live on stage at the end
>>1934650>>1934633yeah we got to eat fucking good this time for sure. The other streams could use a similar boost desu.
>>1934663Then they did I am the Best at the end of the Mashup paid part too
Gekirock collab clothes will be displayed at Abyssmare 2nd concert
Found this website. Looks like the app still received the entire ranking, they just don't display it anymore.https://d4dj.yatta.moe/tools/ranking?mode=themed&num=3
>>1934693I want to calculate the F2P support for each character from top 100 supporters.My idea is that even top 100 converge to roughly same, say 5000 points or so towards latter half of the ranking, so I will assume that is the F2P point, remove anyone above from the total points, and divide it by this F2P point. Any math formulas I can use or should I write a procedural program from scratch?
>>1934302>Didn't one of the LLs have You being a cute girl who is also an actual character? Or so I got the impression.>They really need to understand the simple math that +1 cute girl = good.>Though I also have the suspicion that they are cutting costs on the VA...The Bushiroad gacha gen Nijigasaki has a self insert, BUT they are all from an all-girl school. Then she got a name, visual and seiyuu for the anime. She was turned into a blank self insert for the Bushiroad VN again though, complete with amnesia. Probem is Fuei, where Doggo, Egg and Toru come from, is co-ed. As for seiyuu, they can just use Jiu's first seiyuu, Aoi Mio from Donuts's own agency, who is doing god know what these days...
>>1934302>>1934870The problem was that the Love Live games were wasting the cute girl on the self-insert instead of having her be an idol herself. This is the same reason why male idol games almost always have a female self-insert.
People still mad about Toru?At least we still get Yuri scraps from other units.
>>1934667I really gotta get off my ass and join the fanclub, huh?
>>1934951nice reactions on stream, thats what i want, pls pander to mehttps://youtu.be/Ia08W2ZbOYA?si=YoMjbgfyoDcfsPGn&t=390
>>1934951>a sleeve and hand tug is all you need to please yuri fansWhy is donuts sleeping on this?
>just found out about Bandori Our Notesthis is why papa kidani left us...
https://en.d4dj-pj.com/cpt_special/17-2Apparently all this time an official translation of the Lyrical Lily short stories (which I didn't know existed at all until a few hours ago) was floating around in some borderline-inaccessible corner of the official site. An interesting read if you care about ri4 at all (it's a series of short stories about how they wrote the lyrics to some of their OG songs (color of tainted sorrow, I shall be a cat, etc.)
>>1935006yeah the seiyuus are pretty funnyElsie seiyuu also points out the Neo-sama card has Sophia in it
>>1935072Waiting to see the new characters' profile to see if any are dating each other.If not, it can not replace D4DJ for me.
>>1935239Hey that's kind of co... Wow, that's a lot meatier than I expected.>>1935314Wonder how gay it would be, and their passives.While I'm a Unichord fan and would be saving for that anyway, practically speaking if we don't EoS anytime soon, I'll need another full team for the eventual Unichord growth live.The Peaky one would be unusable unless ET4 pure stats beats out more good passives, which I guess I should try out in the Rondo growth just to check, and I doubt Rondo cards would be any different.
Maybe I read it wrong but May'n seems to suggest on the stream that the new Live costumes for 2nd concert will incorporate elements of other members
New MSPhttps://youtube.com/watch?v=hFWz7qeOenM
>>1935072many of us are excited about the prospect of IkkaDumb Rock! being an ABCD expy...
>>1935377Just use ABCD or eggs (when they come). The game will EoS and you can use them for any and every growth
Will Kokoa whale bump Hayate into top 4?
>>1935944I'm supporting my wife. Hopefully fans of my wife's wife will support her too.
>>1935944>>1935947Looks like she made it through. I wonder what the maintenance is for.
>>1935995holy shit 3rd place toodude spent about 300K yen i.e. 2 grand USD, or 1650 Eur
No Escape is growing on me
>>1936084So you're saying there is no escape.>>1935995>>1936065Not what I expected to see. But nice nonetheless.Though 2 grand is less than I expected. I wonder how much that means when you normalize it to JP income.Like was he the only whale and no dolphins or what?
>>1936088JP's average annual income is somewhere above 4,000K, and medium income slightly higher than that
>>1936093So a month's pay lets say.I mean I was expecting more to break into the top 4.
>>1936107Having both the money and the TIME to grind it is the bigger hurdle I imagine
>>1936109True, but you can auto it right?What I'm asking is whether he was the only one.Because well, I don't know how much the cost to donuts would be, but I can't imagine they'll break even on it. Maybe?Who knows, maybe these things are cheaper than I expect.
>>1936139I see their next song is Around-Around-Around.
>>1936139I wish the Roots. song they had chosen was this onehttps://youtu.be/RTdN6k_jqFE
>>1936111The whale (dogpoo) is now saying he only decided to dump into Hayate because Temma posted about her around rank 6 a few days ago and Temma only posted it because she was in a visible rank, so I guess in a way every f2p and minnow also helped even though Haya-coco get no dolphins. What a heartwarming story! Nevertheless Donuts need to figure out how to polish this shit because right now it just doesn't feel right in terms of player experience.
>>1936251Yeah this shit is fucked as-is. At least one JP diggler I know on twitter got depressed/discouraged and took a hiatus from the game because she's a Kyoko simp and Kyoko has no whales (all the giga-whales seems to be for Photon/Haya-Coco right now).
>>1936251dumped it cuz Tenma’s tweets kinda moved me. Not only did she tell us to spend wisely, but she’s also simply happy because she’s supported even though her rank isn’t high. I can’t help but support her.
>>1936523That's my oshi!>>1936251>show DJ rankCV gets sad, maybe leaves>hide DJ rankCV menhera is better but whales of less popular DJs don't want to "waste" money.One idea of fixing it is making it so each DJ has their own ranking and you can only support one for the duration (sorry dogpoo). And within each of the DJs the players fight for titles or some shit.This way you save the CVs from seeing their ranking low and the whales can get something out of it.
Dont be sorry. I actually prefer supporting only one character, it keeps me from feeling guilt tripped. Sometimes it feels like I have an obligation to vote for Hayate so Kokoa doesnt feel lonely without her.
>>1936966>Sometimes it feels like I have an obligation to vote for Hayate so Kokoa doesnt feel lonely without her.You should be looking at it as story fodder. Nevermind that they probably won't do anything with it.Also something something makes the heart grow fonder.
Seems the running theme of the offshoot card stories is to double down on the "main" pairings for everyone (HaruMiyu, NeoSophia, ElsieWero, etc.). A bit paint-by-numbers, but they gave my rarepairs a lot of love last year so I guess I can't be mad about it. Anything's better than more hetslop.
5th anniversary CD is here. The staff credit listing everyone together make me realize that Ando Sasa / risuko did a lot of recording direction for D4DJ songs, especially Happy Around and Refactoring Utopia for UniChØrd. Funny that Photon Producer directed Over the Universe's recording.
>>1937192I remember Muni card was Rinku PoV too back then (the card art)
Are they hitting a brake on the dfy thing
>>1937212Depends on what you think it's about.If you think it's about self-inserts, then they are probably diverting from it depending on how profitable the first one was.If you think it's about money, then I expect to see more variations out.Though I'm saying that with the understanding that the 4 player beach thing is under it. Am I wrong? I'm basically running off second hand info here.
>>1937218Yeah? We had 3 theme rankings in succession but they stopped now. Not sure if planned or if they are trying to pause and figure things out.
