Im not dead I swear

What even is captioning anymore (chucks kurumi -> eve edit at your face) here :D

Mae // Ria // Ichirou // Kaede // Hayato // band story

there's more! Sirenity character profiles!!

Kaede was actually the first one of these kids who popped into existence, since he was a preexisting OC who didn't belong to any franchise at all. in fact, Sirenity came into being because I felt like putting Kaede into a fanband, lol. I pretty much just throw all my favourite tropes on him & Yanagi and that's why he has to suffer like he does.

although I didn't mean to make him suffer THAT much in the band story ... sorry, Kaede, you're just too easy to be mean to ...

bonus art from his pre-fanband days in the comments!

Haiki Kaede (拝木 楓) / 17 (high school 3rd yr) / he/him

• birthday 11/8
• height 170cm
• weight 57kg
• likes his brother / football
• dislikes his brother / long car rides

It’s my songs that we've made it this far with, so I want to keep going. How much higher can we reach …? As long as I have that sort of feeling, it'll surely be okay.

Kaede ... doesn't have it easy. he and his twin brother Yanagi grew up being raised mainly by the staff of their household, since their parents were usually gone for work, and were extremely close when they were children. they've been playing the piano and violin respectively since then, as they were expected to learn a classical instrument. however, (as of yet unrevealed) Things Happened and caused a rift between the two of them that they both suffer under immensely.

because it reminded him too much of his brother, Kaede didn't really pursue the piano, instead opting to join the football club. but it's still something that he grew up with and writing songs helped him work through his feelings, so he could never really get away from it. and as such, he somehow ended up being forced scouted into Sirenity by a very insistent Mae.

Kaede is actually a pretty popular guy (though I didn't have much chance to show it in the band story) and someone with a lot of friends, but he rarely shows his true feelings, which are a lot more complicated than he'd let others know. being in Sirenity though means that those feelings catch up with him faster than he can run away, and as a result he ends up wavering and landing in downward spirals pretty easily. despite being a friendly and approachable guy on the outside, he's actually kind of a worrywart. if there's anyone I had to compare him to, it'd be probably be Wataru (brother complex and all, coughs)

Kaede is my child and I'm glad I got to work with him in the band story as much as I did! his character turned out a lot more pronounced than I'd initially feared (I figured he'd get outshone by people like Mae or Hayato, but he works off them much better than I thought he would). please appreciate him he desperately needs the validation

ALSO YES THESE HAVE PROPER PROFILES NOW I gotta add that to the other ones aaaa

Love live rimi edit!

Okay i'm late but im jumpin’ on the 4* card thing so here here go:

Fav 4* that i own

This was a hard one, as I was going back and forth between two different cards for a solid 5 minutes. I decided on this one purely for the untrained, it looks like a real baseball card and it makes me happy inside.

Least favourite 4* that i own

This ain't a terrible card, I just find it rather dull. Plus, it comes with what is (imo) one of the most boring costumes in the game, it just has nothing going for it.

Strongest 4*

I use this card for most happy-boosted events, it’s weirdly strong. I also love the colours and the look of it, so, win-win.

First 4*

Funny story about how this one came into my possession; the gatcha that this card was first featured in was my first full gatcha (I started playing during the last couple days of the Christmas 2020 event). I did a 10 pull from this gatcha cause i wanted Chisato’s 4* star. I already had a 3* Kaoru card and figured i didn’t need a duplicate of a character (idk what i was thinking lol). Low and behold, Kaoru showed up, and the rest is history.

Favourite 4* of all time

I have this card, and I absolutely adore it. From her costume, the untrained, the colours in the trained, and much, much more; this is easily my favourite card I've ever had the honor of owning.

i have the funny number of notifications soo funny

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY FAVORITE FLEETING DEMON PRINCESS

AND THE BEST BIRTHDAY CARD (YET) IS HERE!!!!! ADORABLE ROKKA. I WANT HER SO MUCH!!

i'm so excited to see Kokoro's birthday card now omg. Dreamfest is coming too. God, i regret wasting almost 25k for Bride Rinko, if I hadn't got limited Ran, limited Kokoro and full Zombieland Saga set I would start another account omg

Am I the only one who feels like the birthday cards' quality increased?

Especially looking at the Eve and Rokka ones. They really feel like 4* now (at least to me).

I hope bandori can maintain that quality starting from now, it's very pleasing to see!

Good thing for me Tae's birthday is in a while

Pareo love live edit!
