Ciao a tutti! I have again forced myself to do everything again together and in the evening (at least as far as I'm concerned since it's almost night here) bringing again two days, but they seem made to be together after all... See you soon! Saluti!

Bandtober : Day 17 (Meeting their Idols)

(Thanks to the tickets Ako had procured for her, Ayaka was able to attend the concert that the Roselias had held at the Galaxy in the front row, remaining petrified all the time by their show. She had been going to their concerts every once they had one, then it was beneficial to her since she knew both Ako and Rinko via the NFO server, but seeing them play was sensational. As she often saw Yukina and Lisa at school, greeting them from time to time, being able to talk to them as fans was a weird emotion, not to mention Sayo.)

(Waiting alone with some anxiety for the kohai to come out of the club, after she had sent her a message, her nervousness rose more and more as her legs felt limp. She was leaning against the wall, glimpsing other people coming out of the room all talking with a certain enthusiasm of the concert, then seeing in the distance a purple hair that was running towards her with arms outstretched.)

• Ako: "Thanks for waiting for us, Orlanda-senpai!"

(The shrill voice of the little girl calling her by her nickname, like her arms tightening around her body, made her so embarrassed that her face turned completely red.)

• Ayaka: "Ako-chan! How many times do I have to tell you not to call me that way when we are in real life?"

(She muttered in a faint voice and her hand stroking the girl's head, then watching Rinko and Lisa approach them with Yukina and Sayo next to them.)

• Lisa: "Of course you are always energetic, Ako."
• Rinko: "A-Are you okay, Ayaka-chan?"
• Ayaka: "Yes, it's nothing, it was just the impact... and hello Lisa-san..."
• Lisa: "I saw you from the stage, sure you really had an expression, were you speechless?"

(She smiled in a friendly and playful way, slapping her thick ponytail, then looking at Yukina as she stood beside her with her arms folded.)

• Yukina: "Lisa, how many times have I told you that you should concentrate while we play?"
• Lisa: "Many times and I already knew, Yukina, you can rest assured."
• Yukina: "Okay, if you say so, anyway were you here to see us, Aihara-san?"

(She asked quietly, not letting any kind of feeling out, at least it seemed so to Ayaka's eyes and ears.)

• Ayaka: "Eh? Are you saying here right here or at the concert?"
• Sayo: "I think Minato-san meant here."

(The guitarist intervened in her place, also crossing her arms over her chest and aiming at the girl with an inquiring look, making her feel slightly uncomfortable.)

• Ayaka: "Oh... Actually it was Ako-chan who told me to wait for her here... It wasn't my intention to bother you all..."
• Ako: "I can confirm, I wanted the senpai to come with us for a bite to eat at the usual place, don't you mind if I invited her?"

(Ako broke away from her and put her hands together and then brought them close to her chin. All of them seemed to fall out of the clouds from her comment, including Ayaka who wasn't expecting such a request, starting to sweat cold and with increasing discomfort.)

• Lisa: "You never deny yourself, Ako, but it can work for me. How about you guys?"
• Rinko: "Idem, but Ako-chan... did you ask her earlier if she was available?"

(Rinko seemed the only one with a bit of common sense and the drummer scratched the back of her neck with a laugh.)

• Yukina: "Shirokane-san is right. But in order to be able to say something we should also hear what Hikawa-san and Aihara-san herself think about it."
• Sayo: "Udagawa-san, I still can't figure out how your mind works sometimes. But as far as I'm concerned it doesn't make any difference, she can come."

(She snorted when she began to speak and then tucked a lock of hair behind her ear when finished the sentence, meeting the gaze of the unaware guest who briefly held the exchange, turning it towards Yukina's.)

• Ayaka: "I... I would be very happy... It's not every day that you can have dinner with your idols..."
• Ako: "See? Problem solved!"
• Yukina: "If you all agree, then me too, Aihara-san is welcome."

(That said, the girls headed for the family restaurant to discuss the concert, Ayaka really felt over the moon, being able to be with them and listen to their thoughts, like being able to ask her a few things about the songs and comment on them: it was something she would never forget.)

Bandtober : Day 18 (Meeting a Fan)

[Lunch break - Courtyard of the Hanasakigawa Girls' Academy]

(It had now become a habit, and when Lucia wasn't busy, they occupied a bench under one of the immense trees. Oriko was happy to be able to taste the bento the other made from time to time, since usually her mother instructed the maid to prepare her lunch, but being able to eat something made by another person she respected was quite another story.)

• Oriko: "Senpai, that pasta looks interesting, can I steal a bite from you?"
• Lucia: "Go ahead, even if it's last night's surplus, my father has exaggerated as usual."
• Oriko: "Maybe, but it's always a good thing, other than the usual expensive fish that the old maid prepares for me."

(Making this harsh comment, she grabbed a couple of strings of spaghetti with her chopsticks and put them in mouth, closing eyes and savoring the taste like the best of food critics. She heard Lucia's laughter in the background as well as the shouting of some girls who, like them, were intent on eating out on that beautiful autumn day. While the two girls were intent on exchanging food, a thin man with thick glasses on his aquiline nose approached them, thus attracting their attention. He was quite young, between twenty and thirty, wearing plain gray jeans and a vest of the same color was closed over the white shirt, his short black hair that was neat and gave him an intellectual air.)

• ???: "Excuse me if I interrupt you during your break, can I talk to you for a moment?"

(On hearing that voice and that question, Oriko stood at attention, a slight strain on her limbs for that sudden encounter; Lucia, on the other hand, stood up straight and placed her lunch gracefully beside her, crossing hands on her lap and speaking with a calm and regal air.)

• Lucia: "Yes, and would you be?"
• ???: "Oh, sure, that's rude. I'm the substitute for the first-grade math teacher, my name is Arisato..."
• Lucia: "Thank you, can we be of help?"
• Prof. Arisato: "Well, actually I was wondering if you two were part of the Tiergeist..."
• Oriko: "What if it were so?"

(The blonde replied furiously, seeing the hand of the eldest girl rise towards her, a sign to calm down, thus letting her talk to the man.)

• Lucia: "Forgive my kohai's insolence."
• Prof. Arisato: "I was not offended, on the contrary... I feel almost flattered..."
• Lucia: "May I know the reason for your question?"
• Prof. Arisato: "Of course... The truth is that I'm a fan of yours..."

(Silence fell, letting an exchange of glances wander between them, at least until an agitated Ichigaya waved Lucia back.)

• Lucia: "Excuse me, I would gladly stay and talk to you again, but it seems that a member of the student council needs me. I greet you."

(And so she left the two as she entered the school building once she had recovered his belongings. More silence followed until the man with an automatic gesture of adjusting his glasses at the same time as Oriko, caused the two to look at each other with a certain complicity. She motioned for him to sit beside her and he, in silence and with a slight bow of his head, went to her side.)

• Oriko: "I never expected a teacher from our school to be so interested in us. And tell me, Sensei, which of our songs did you like?"
• Prof. Arisato: "I would say that Il giardino delle meraviglie is my absolute favorite."
• Oriko: "Really? I wonder why I was expecting such an answer from you. You really have the air of an incurable romantic, am I wrong?"

(The teacher scratched his cheek smiling embarrassed, his ears slightly reddened with his eyes bent for a few seconds on the ground, then putting his hands in his pockets and staring at the clear sky. Oriko looked at him curiously and leaned out just a little, so that her elbow was resting on her knee and her palm could support her chin, narrowing her eyes with a sly smile.)

• Prof. Arisato: "That song reminds me a lot of the happy moments I spent with a person, although it seems strange to say so given the sound you make, your vocalist somehow manages with that those words to bring back those memories to me dear. I discovered your band by pure chance a few months ago, but since then I always come to your concerts and I always hope to be able to hear new lyrics and new music that can move something in my soul."

(The young girl blushed without realizing it when he looked at her pleased, like the sincere smile he was giving her at that moment, adjusting her glasses again after getting up from the bench.)

• Oriko: "I hope you will continue to follow us, we will do our best to make our songs unique, also for the good of people like you."
• Prof. Arisato: "I can't wait to see another show of yours then. Now it's time for me to go, classes are about to start, you should go back to class too, Miss Wazawai."

(Once he stood up, the man touched her head and greeted her with that same hand, moving away from the girl. Oriko covered her mouth with her palm and looked to the side in embarrassment, then retrieved the finished lunch and walked to class too, feeling that that day was hotter than she thought.)

Day 30

I like everything about Bandori!! The songs, the characters, the game style, etc (but not the lags and the crashings tho).

(Not related to Bandori)

I'm sure a lot of us have been playing Project Sekai and D4DJ, and I'm just curious to hear what everyone thinks of the games! Favorite characters and units? Thoughts on the gameplay? Anything you're not a fan of? I'll be putting my own thoughts in the comments!

Ah I’m a day late bc yesterday was a really busy day- Sorry! Anyways, Happy Birthday Rinko!

i'm so, so very late to this... but i finally made my bandorisona! nice to finally join the party :3

This time isn't my drawing, it's my young sister's drawing!!
We all know that tomorrow is Halloween so my sister decided to draw rimi in her Halloween outfit and she wishes you my best community a good luck in gacha tomorrow .
Hope you all like it ^_^!

Happy (late) birthday Rinko! Here's a quick edit.

today is my 1 year anniversary on garupa!! i'm really happy i managed to spend an entire year playing this game considering my lack of attention span.... i love the gameplay, i love the characters, i love the music, i love everything!!! of all the rhythm games i've been able to play it's easily my favourite and i'm so glad i got into it 💖

that said i would also like to give my thanks to banpa!! the bandori community everywhere else really intimidates me but i feel so in place here - it took about 6 months of me being on the site to start actually posting because i'm so shy, but it was the best decision i ever made because it's wonderful to be part of a community where we all share that interest in bandori! i won't give specific shoutouts because i'd probably miss someone so... if you're reading this consider this your shoutout :)

here's to many more years of playing bandori, i'm so grateful to have this franchise in my life ~

I just got D4DJ! Now all I need to do is figure out how to play the game when it's in a completely different language... How did you all play the game without knowing what the buttons say? And what does this say because every time I click it it leads me back to the title language sTrUgGLes
