bandori pain moments that happen to me constantly (warning, slight rant)

• getting one good when trying to fc
• getting one great when trying to ap
• spending all of your Michelle stickers on a Gacha ticket, getting a dupe 3*, and only getting 25 stickers back
• getting dupes in general :’)
• having two of the same type and character cards and not being able to use one at all (i have two powerful tae 4* and two happy saya 4* cards)
• being the only one not having a fc in multi live
• missing a note during note spams in a map
• missing a note during a death slider (i.e. tear drops ex/sp sliders and alchemy ex slider )
• getting the wrong 4* in a Gacha (when not even a rate up card) and game refuses to give you the rate up card you want
• getting the wrong 4* in a gacha (wrong rate up card) and game refuses to give you the correct rate up card you want
• vs live events / team vs live events (cuz you can’t play other modes to get event points)
• getting one place away from getting a title (i.e. getting 2001th place but you wanted top 2000, getting 10001th place but you wanted top 10000)
• having EXIST being picked every multi live (i get it’s obnoxiously meta, but plz stop)
• rokuchounen as a whole
• having stars that aren’t a multiple of 50 (i.e. 125)
• not having enough stars for gachas
• having 299 michelle stickers :( anddd yeah that’s it!

very quick combination of the rui/rinko cards from the new set!!

also, does anyone know why sets only have 3 cards now, instead of 5? i uhhh,,,, ngl i’m not a fan of the change, and i really hope it’s not permanent. a lot of my favourite cards are 2stars,,,,,,, so it’d be kinda sad if they stopped making them (๑•ૅㅁ•๑)

Am I the only one who assumed Marina is the owner of CiRCLE?

RuiRin event … with both of them giving up classical competitions at some point the writing could so easily have gone the “kids forced into learning instruments from a young age and subject to high standards and misery before discovering the joy and freedom of being in a band” route but they both love classical music So Much and it makes me happy. Prelude Replay with Rinko’s piano being a means to express herself and this event … I. Rui. Rui I love you. She loves the violin so much and she wants to win so bad she conflates love with skill and recognition because being the best is the ultimate proof of her love … but what does it mean then when she can’t be the best …

I like that her mum isn’t strict and controlling and we don’t really have enough to go on but I’m having Thoughts about parents wanting their kids to do what makes them happy while also very much valuing academic success and associating it with pride and worth. Like comparing you to your classmates in an entirely flattering way and being entirely supportive even when you fail but y’know! You’ve got this and that achievement while other kids are wasting time socialising or whatever! Again I am just thinking but Rui’s mum comforting Rui by reminding her of her perfect test score at school and later on saying that maybe she can leave the violin be because she’s clearly in pain and there are other things she can win at, plus she’s in middle school now and possibly implying that it’s serious study time? I just like the idea of good and loving parents potentially instilling maybe not the most helpful values in their kids. It’s more interesting to me than them being outright terrible which is obviously a thing of course! But anyway there Rui is, putting so much value in winning because how can she love the violin with everything she has when everything she has is tied to tangible results? Results that are lacking? She wants to win and hold that physical representation of her love in her hands—the gold prize she mentions over and over again. That would give it worth. What can mere feelings mean when there’s nothing to show for them?

And of course classical performance standards are high. And yeah maybe it hurts because you’re not good enough and you want to quit but you still love it all the same because it’s music and it slaps. It does! And maybe you’d rather give up and love it without being hurt. Rui broke into my house and disintegrated all my possessions

may you find peace, buddy.

Well, that was an interesting event.

Via coin toss, I was on Team Flower. I swear, everyone who can consistently FC just joined Animal Team. While it was nice to have the MVP award almost all the time, I didn't wanna carry almost every match.....

It's like I never left Osu! multiplayer lmao

WOW JUST FROM 2 PULLS I'M SO LUCKY-

A new HHW set is out!

Surely everyone loves Michelle and it's a good idea to make another Michelle-themed set, right?

I drew Iris of Secret and Youth Nanami for luck in tiering! See you all in the top ten next week~

Hi everyone!

While we are patiently waiting for a future Monica collab, I wanted to ask you about the previous collabs.

That’s why I created a short Google Form about which collab did the best in certain aspects. Please don’t be scared to say that collabs that aren’t your favourite did some things better, it would be boring if you only selected you favourite.

Here is the form!

It takes less than 2 minutes to fill

And I promise it isn’t a rickroll

Thanks for your time! I want to post the results in about a week and will hopefully have enough answers by then :)
