Man, it feels really weird getting so much support from people for something you're making. This is honestly an amazing feeling that I have never felt before. Thank you all so much.

However, I have some bad news regarding Muse Combat.

The development for Muse Combat will be delayed indefinitely. After getting really far in development, the dev team and I have realized that we are missing the most important component of the game: the music. Funding for the game is nonexistient, so our budget is incredibly low. This means we can't pay for musicians, voice actors, etc... Without a band to play for us and voice actors to sing for their respective characters, we have no way of making proper music for the game.

But fear not, Muse Combat will not be abandoned. The dev team is still working very hard to do their best. We will be possibly launching a Kickstarter and/or a Patreon un the future.

Thank you all for supporting and following the development of Muse Combat. Your kind and supportive words mean everything to us ❤️

The very moment I saw this card I immediately thought

Say "Aah!"

Hey guys!

"The Bandori gacha is so unfair!!!"

Have you ever had this thought in your mind, even a little? Maybe I'm complaining with no reason, but this thought hits me everytime some gacha like the image above happens.

I don't play much gacha games, the only of them being Bleach Brave Souls and Fire Emblem Heroes (I try to login everyday on Grand Summoners too but I don't play that much, and my phone isn't running Revue Starlight Re:Live because of its Android 10 incompability), and even though there are times I draw nothing, most of the time I feel satisfied with the overall results. But my feeling about Bandori is different, it's feels more disappointing than the others, always having this feeling of flustration, that the gacha is unfair, and my efforts are in vain. Maybe because I'm really unlucky when it comes to the game itself and especially about my favorite characters (Kasumi, Lisa and Misaki) and band (Poppin' Party), or maybe because there aren't too many ways to collect free stars. Just so you know, I never got a 4* in its own gacha (for example, Tanabata Kasumi on her gacha with Hagumi).

I want to know about your opinions: what do you think about the Bandori gacha? Is it really unfair compared to other games? Or I'm just being annoying and complaining with no reason? Tell me what you think.

And yes, this was my result after spending on the Valentine gacha. Sad.

Yo, who's the most iconic member of the Ban*Pa community for you?

Personally, I can recognize any post from @Kaiton without looking at his username. I just scroll through Ban*Pa and find a post about RAS needing more content or cute seasonal quotes and I'm just like "Yep. That's a Kaiton post. What a cool guy."

also, wow. Blatant self advertising! Do you want a chance for your OC to appear in a videogame?? Then you should join the Muse Combat Logo Competition!

Story time!

Earlier today, I was playing Multi Lives with a friend on the JP server. They're someone who previously hasn't played Garupa... at all for a year or something (I'm pretty sure they pre-date my Aug '18 start as well) so I know they're very unfamiliar with RAS, so I was intentionally choosing RAS songs (well, I only got 1/3 before the main bit) to gauge an opinion. Then I got Gekidou and they commented about/during the CHUTsumu bit (positive), so I made them listen to EXPOSE 'Burn out!!!'.

Half because it's my personal favourite RAS song, half because I personally think CHUTsumu's best vocal parts are here and whole for... another reason.

After that, I was able to shift the conversation to RAS and gave a short summary of RAS' origin as THE THIRD. I also mentioned their appearance (as characters) in 2nd Season. They haven't seen 2nd Season (or 1st but at least there's a somewhat substitute for that) so I'll try and get them to watch it. Perhaps in the future, I can get them to watch 3rd Season...

All of this is part of my goal to get them wanting to talk about Bandori, more about the characters/stories than the songs (but I won't say no to songs). Whether that's through Banpa, Twitter, Reddit and/or whatever other sites or things people use. If I can add RAISE A SUILEN to that goal, it's too late because I already have.

You know what would be funny? If they saw this. Hey, go make an account!

Somewhat asking out of curiosity... Would you guys be interested in seeing ukulele or drum covers of Bandori songs?

If so, leave a request in the comments :)

Not that no one really cares, but it’s really mostly for myself anyway :) I haven’t been online for a while BUT I’ve gotten WAY better at bandori! I finally fced this game, opera of the wasteland, determination symphony, maware, etc! Also, I got jpdori! (Only because I’ve been CRAVING to play paradisus paradoxum and I couldn’t wait until November to play it but yeah!) I fced paradisus paradoxum, amanojaku, god knows, Fire bird, fire bird (full) etc! It’s almost a year since I’ve been playing bandori and it may not be much to you, but it is much to me <3 bandori has given me a comfort I haven’t felt in a while, I love the characters the story the art the game everything! I’m really happy I started playing it because it’s made me happy ever since, whenever I’m sad, to get my mind off of that sad thing I play bandori! I love bandori so much and it has made me so much happier!!

Yes I made Ran again....

I was so bored so I made this :D (I know it would be better with other outfits but they are really cute as puppies 🐶) Here you have another one: https://i.bandori.party/u/activities/sSDLyBc805gJuYVSzaaC0w8lvOHAP5.png

Okay so anyone here remembers “Declaration of XXX”?

Well, I was researching something and I found out XXX can stand for... um... you know...

DECLARATION OF SE—

Lord have mercy, just finish the darn sentence for me as I go grab a glass of holy water...
