appreciation post for Aya's cameos in the Idol Survivor set

somebody help this girl

//e: I'm so happy this post is still going around maybe someday help will arrive for Aya

i made this at 4 am

I haven’t posted anything not related to Arisa on here and I promise I love the other girls too but I just? Have an urge to gush about why she’s my absolute fav?

I understand why she grates on some people and that’s totally cool, I wouldn’t be offended at all if you said outright that you hated her with a passion. But! I love her. I have since pretty much the first moment she showed up in the game.

• Yes she’s a tsun, yes I wish the writers would tone down that aspect of her personality a little so we’re not reminded of it constantly, but she’s more than just a trope. She has the emotional range of a tsun but also enough depth so that she’s not just always vacillating between her tiny angry bean self and her fluffy caramel-filled eclair self. I love that she’s a brutal realist and the logical thinker in any situation, not because she’s a smartass but because she worries about everything and that’s how she processes and works through her misgivings.
• I have A Thing for characters who seem like cynical sarcastic jerks but are actually super nice (which I realise sounds kinda like a description of a tsun but y’know, beyond the stereotype of getting pissy and blushing). Arisa may snap at Kasumi a lot but when Kasumi breaks her guitar Arisa just immediately goes with her to get it repaired because she doesn’t wanna see her cry and her actions are so much more reliable than her words.
• When she screws up at PoPiPa’s audition (even though they all kinda do) she’s the one who breaks down because she feels responsible and Arisa please don't, my HEART
• That exasperated but fond little smile she has in the game sometimes? There’s just this loneliness about it combined with the way her voice softens and idk she seems like the sort of person who would resign themselves to doing things alone and that also hurts my heart.
• I really relate to her need to put up a sweet polite front when she’s with people she doesn’t know well. It’s uncomfortable as heck seeing her act like that but it’s so obvious that she can’t keep it up for long and it tires her out and I feel her pain acutely, since I’m also a jaded pessimist who tries so so hard to smile and look approachable before giving up bc it doesn’t come naturally to me sob
• Her voice is adorable and Su-Suki Nanka Janai cracks me up because everything about it captures her quick-fire thought processes and dorkiness so perfectly

So um. Thanks for bearing with me I love my child <333

Arisa Ishigaya>Tae Hanazono

I am thoroughly convinced that a blushing, flustered out of her mind Kaoru is the cutest thing. Yes, this is a Kao-chan appreciation post - she deserves more love and light teasing.

LONG POST AHEAD! SCROLL DOWN IF YOU DON'T WANT TO READTOO MUCH.

All these unpopular opinions are giving this site a really bad mood, so I'm gonna start another apreciation post for PoPiPa (I alredy did one which was suposed to be an unpopular opinion).

Since last time I talked about the characters, this time I am going to talk about the songs. Unfortunatelly, PoPiPa's songs are generally the least popular out of all bands, which is a shame because I think they are amazing. There are a lot of different songs that are all really good. I'm gonna list some of them here.

-Tokimeki expeiece!: The opening from the BanG Dream! anime and the title screen song, one that everyone should know. The song has a really cool yet kinda cheerful feel for me. It's a song that makes me feel like something good is about to start, that thing being obviously BanG Dream! I really like it because for me it is the song that represents PoPiPa, and it's really good, yet underapreciated.

-Poppin' Shuffle: This song is probably the most cheerful song PoPiPa has, and it is a song that always lifts my mood. It is quite fast paced and is really catchy once you listen to it multiple times.

-STAR BEAT! Hoshi no Kodou: This is the first song to be performed by all 5 members of PoPiPa together. It is a rather calm song compared to other PoPiPa songs, that still has a cheerful feel to it. Something that makes this song special for me is that it always makes me think about Saaya and for me it represents her.

-TearDrops: this is probably one of, if not PoPiPa's most popular songs, and honestly, I can see why. This is one of, what I call, cooler songs from PoPiPa, and probably my favourite song in all of Bandori. The gutar is really good and just makes the song better. The lyrics talk about following your dreams without giving up and crying when you fail. This really represents Kasumi, since she's always following her goal without giving up. Even if she smoetimes had ups and downs, she never gives up. It just sounds perfect and has really good lyrics.

-Mae e Susume: What I like the most about this song, is that everyone has solos and they all sing alone, which lets us apreciate everyone's voices, and it makes me realize that everyone has an amazing voice. I also liked a little detail in the anime, whic was that the first time they performed the song to be able to perform in SPACE, and fail, you can tell that there is something wrong with the song and isn't perfected.

-Time Lapse: This song hasn't been released in the WW server yet, so some people might not know this,or the following songs. Time lapse is another one of these cooler songs. I especially like the start and end of the song, which don't have any instruments, and the parts where everyone sings "Oh oh... Time Lapse Starry Sky", since it adds really nice feel to the song.

-Hachigatsu no If: This is a song that came from the BanG Dream! OVA, and what I especially like abut it is how calm it is, and the fact that it is a duet beetween Kasumi and Saaya. i really love Saaya's voice and the fact thta she has a song where she sings with kasumi is really great.

-Light Delight: I only listened to this song recientlly and fell in love instantlly, and is a contenant for best song along with Teardrops. It starts really calmly, but as it progresses it shifts into a really powerful song,which even features 4 lines sang by everyone in PoPiPa, which, as I stated before in Mae e Sususme, is something I really love to listen to. I especially like the chorus of the song, because Kasumi's voice gets a really powerful feel there that just gives more emotion to the song.

And those are just some of the songs I really like. I could go on and on and on talkng about how much I love PoPiPa, but this would get too long, so I will just talk more when I feel like it. I hope everyone can tell how much I love this band through my posts and that you can also apreciate it.

P.S: There may be some typos in this post, and that is because I hurt my index finger, which i use to type, and I can't use it, so I have to get used to type with different fingers. I hope you can forgive my typos, and if you find one, you can feel free to tell me in the comments.
