Also, this segment lol

hate to say this but the priest (bae) has more personality than hexa so far...

Irys and bae have next to no lines and she's been relegated to a background dancer just outside the camera so im quite discheesed

Vocaloid.

I don't think Bae did this anywhere near as well as Nessie did, should've been something else

Dat ass

The song being about a child who craves recognition and acceptance from their parents is extremely appropriate for her

>>91574281
There was a hard r on that rrat

>>91574511
And? I recognize all of the songs but that doesn't mean I know the lyrics, they mean jackshit to me in the context of a musical without being able to understand what they're saying

>>91574655
Do you need to understand the lyrics of a song to enjoy how it sounds
Like 90% of karaoke and live song choices are like this

This sounds like something from Akira Tsuchiya.

i wish they themed this live about a promise "adventure" instead of this retarded oc play.
we are like an hour in and they are just bumbling until a song shows up

>>91574500
Prerecorded or not the amount of mixing and takes is still less for lives compared to covers

>>91574793
Anon this was supposed to be a fucking musical
Musicals have songs that have lyrics that are relevant to the plot, so yes it is important

>>91574857
Regardless the fact that she's using Nessie's version of the lyrics obviously invites the comparison.

>>91574793
nta but i thought musicals are supposed to advance the plot though the songs too
i'm having a good time, but is that not the case?

Our Promise!
>>91574901
They do, you just don't understand them
Kronii's song was about lust and womanizing, Bae's was about craving attention and recognition, Moom's was about the depths of the forest etc

Hexa Gone waited. The lights above her blinked and sparked out of the air. There were owls in the forest. She didn't see them, but had expected them now for years. Her warnings to Cardanal Jopon were not listenend to and now it was too late. Far too late for now, anyway.
Hexa was a bard for fourteen years. When she was young she watched the livers and she said to dad "I want to be on the stage daddy."
Dad said "No! You will BE KILL BY CHAOS"
There was a time when she believed him. Then as she got oldered she stopped. But now in the castle of the demon lord she knew there was chaos.
"This is Jopon" the radio crackered. "You must fight the chaos!"
So Hexa gotted her loeded dice and blew up the wall.
"SHE GOING TO KILL US" said the chaos
"I will shoot at her" said the cyberchaos and he fired the rocket missiles. Hexa roled at him and tried to blew him up. But then the ceiling fell and they were trapped and not able to kill.
"No! I must kill the chaos" she shouted
The radio said "No, Hexa. You are the chaos"
And then Hexa was a demon lord.

>>91577352
You can say that of literally every character besides IRyS’
They show up, IRySSA tells them to go on an adventure and then the rest of the story is just them vaguely heading towards the destination until suddenly it ends

The dancing and song selections were great/10
Love Promise/10
the plot was very undercooked however/10

I think as a proof of concept it works very well, but fundamentally it runs into Cover being so risk adverse that everything kinda breaks down, especially that the whole thing was slammed into a single hour.

>>91578854
You know, now that you mention it, is there a particular reason they're hard locked to one hour? I assume it's just because studio time is limited due to the amount of manpower available and how long it takes to practice/record as is

I almost kind of hate that they had to spend all of that time recording for this, this was not worth it in the end for me

>>91577608
They were mooning me specifically.

>>91578774
Smug Bae always looks like she has no thoughts

>>91579334
It’s their last live together, even if you didn’t like it, I’m glad it happened

>>91579346
And that's why retard net Bae is the most powerful Bae

>>91579052
I'm fairly sure these group 3D lives are partially if not fully funded by Cover so they aren't going to favor a gen over another. Meanwhile solo 3D lives can go over an hour but they often don't cuz that's out of their own pockets so everybody sticks to ~1 hour.

>>91579437
nta but if the choice was the >musical or no live then sure, i'm glad it happened.
If we could've had a live of them just goofing in 3D for an hour and singing a little instead, though? I would've preferred that. I think that's what's getting some anons annoyed.

>>91579683
>never try new things
>stick to the same old formula

>>91579768
>Trying new things
>It's just a concert with JP songs and monologues in between
I don't think this counts as trying something new

>>91579663
Makes sense, I remember hearing the costs are not cheap

>>91578854
i dont think its even cover.
What probably happened was that the girls wanted to make something fun and got hit with the true and tested problem of
>Oh god this writing thing is hard and we have to equilibrate one song each+promise song

An hour in terms of "content" is a nightmare to fill, so that's why the musical just ends since they probably didnt want a last sequence

Why is an AI artist flooding Bae's art tag?

>>91580655
Nothing more shameless than a sloppa artist who publishes their shit in official tags

>>91580655
>Why is an AI nigger being an AI nigger?
I fucking hate how little awareness they have. They shit and moan that they are better/as good as artists and then have thrice the menhera moments when you dont give them attention

>>91579856
They did the best they could with the limitations they had at hand. I never expected them to perform a real musical because that's probably a perms nightmare. I also didn't expect them to create an entirely original musical because that would require a lot of resources, unless they did it all themselves but none of them are capable of doing that. They were obviously gonna sing songs they have perms for and can be archived which limits them to either regular covers or some vocaloid style plays like Aki does. The latter would not make much sense if they want to also include their own original story in between the performances. So this is the result and as far as I'm concerned I had fun but maybe it's cuz I didn't have overly high expectations in the first place.
