Here to spread some good vibes (°▽°)

(That’s what I say, but I just want an excuse to express my love for Afterglow.)

Afterglow immediately became my favorite band after starting the game, both in terms of its members and its music. I’m not a music expert, but I feel like Afterglow’s songs have much more variety compared to some of the other bands. For example, That is How I Roll! is a pretty intense song with rebellious lyrics, but then they also have Jamboree Journey, which is imo a cute and upbeat song that highlights the fun of hanging out with friends.

And then there’s the members... All of the other bands have characters that I’m not a huge fan of, but I adore all of Afterglow’s members. With Ran, I like how under the cool exterior, she’s actually easily embarrassed and shows that she cares about her friends through little gestures. Himari is just super sweet, and she’s that one dorky friend that everyone likes to tease. But I also like that they added another layer to her (which I hope they would explore more) when she feels like an incompetent leader at a few points in their band story. Moca seems like a dopey goofball, but she’s actually really perceptive and sensitive to other people’s feelings, and she really treasures her friends. Tomoe surprised me a little - I thought she’s the cool and collected big sister type (which she kinda is) but she’s also quick-tempered, which gives stories with her in it a nice little tension to them. And Tsugu... My best girl... initially, I was a little put off by her character description, that she’s the plainest member and all. I say that because in a lot of anime/games, the plain characters always try to pull some crazy/idiotic stunt to make them seem more “special” which just annoys me a lot tbh (I understand the motives behind their actions, but just the fact that they end up causing so much trouble for the other characters...). But Tsugu, this sweet girl, she acknowledges that she’s plain but isn’t constantly down in the dumps for that. Instead, she uses the fact to motivate herself to work hard and support the other members as well as she could. She has no qualms with just being herself, and she in turn encourages others to be themselves. AND I JUST LOVE HER SO MUCH LIKE-

will all these unpopular opinion posts i decided to post my best girl per band ranking. ofc this is all my own opinion, and i'd love to know all of yours!i love hearing about other people's favorite things (also this is originally 5 different images so sorry if it looks weird at all)

(edit: this is super inaccurate now i saw that it started getting some likes again so i just want that to be clear...)

unpopular opinions hello! or just opinions bc idk what is really unpopular in the fanbase yet jkdfhs

• tae deserves more love... i feel biased for saying this because she's my best girl but i haven't seen her get much attention out of the popipa girls... i love her personality its so silly yet mature? hard to explain but she seems so laidback all the time while keeping a cool and kind demeanor. i really love her for it

• i think popipa has the best songs, i love their rock sound (afterglow too but i prefer popipa in terms of songs)

• roselia is good as well but i don't find their songs as breathtaking as people make them seem? idk sorry jdfhs

• i find eve's voice really cute and a little soothing

• misaki's staged "confession" for kanon in the phantom thief event was so cute and made my heart skip a beat irl

• tsuguran is a cute ship as well as taerimi

• while i love popipa as a whole i am having a hard time fully liking arisa... i don't like to dislike characters and i know she does care about the members deep down, but its hard for me to like her completely, her mean demeanor is just ;_; ack why... she's growing on me a little though so i hope i can come to like her as a whole

how to write a roselia song:

1. start off with a calm quiet beginning, ending with powerful vocals that go into an epic instrumental break

2. have a strong verse, mostly with the lead singer, dont have any of the other members sing. that's against the law

3. before the chorus, always have a quieter part, sometimes with another member singing, for extra epic effect

4. POWERFUL CHORUS TIME!!!! MAKE THIS AS EPIC AND EDGY AS POSSIBLE

5. end with cool instrumentals, to sound cool

been seeing a lot of these unpopular opinion posts recently 🤔

just wanted to remind you all that everyone is entitled to an opinion and it's okay if you're in the minority about some things!

but the line between unpopular opinions and hateful comments is a very thin one, so please think about how you write your opinions! we don't want anyone to fight or feel offended!

we just want everyone here to get along〜☆

Since everyone is sharing unpopular opinions, I'm gonna share one from me,mainly because I don't have much unpopular opinions.

PoPiPa is the best band and it doesn't get enough love. It's characters are all really great and their friendship is really heartwarming. I love a lot of things about everyone in there.

I like Kasumi's enthusiasm and energy, and how she never gives up to fulfill her goal and find that sparkling heart-pounding feeling she wants.

I like how Arisa, despite beinga tsun, deeply cares for her friends. Even if she is a bit harsh to them, she deeply cares for them despite always yelling at them and not admiting it.

I like how Rimi-Rin always tries her hardest to overcome her shyness and how hard she works. And even if she usually feels pessimistic about how good she is playing the bass, the rest of PoPiPa always make sure to reasure her and tell her she is always helpful.

I like O-tae's dorkyness and how she is always lighting up the mood. Everything she says always makes me smile. I also really like how she's a good guitar teacher to Kasumi and helps her when she needs it.

Finally, I like how Saaya is always looking over everyone in PoPiPa, like a sweet big sister, and always wants to make everyone feel better. I also like how she just helps everyone because she doesn't want to be a burden for anyone, so she always works hard. I even remember one of her overworld conversations with Rimi which was about why she chose to play drums and her answer was too pure. She said she chose drums because she is behind and has a good sight of everyone in the band so she can look over everyone. That's just the purest answer ever.

I think I stayed so much talking about why I love PoPiPa, that this became more of a PoPiPa apreciation post rather than an unpopular opinion. But I just hope I left my opinion clear.

tl;dr I love PoPiPa and every character from the band and they deserve more recognition.

EDIT: Okay, why is this suddenly getting attention again?

@ any danganronpa people have u ever,,, confused tsugumi with tsumugi because i sure hAve

unpopular opinions trend? yeet

• i really dont like moca, and im not sure why. in theory, i would like her. her relationship with ran, and also with lisa, are really amazing and i appreciate them, but as a character she is not at all my cup of tea. her voice bothers me, her personality, idk. i really just dont like her.
• hey-day capriccio is afterglow’s only good song, not counting covers.
• other than “a cruel angels thesis” and “no game” most of roselia’s covers are honestly overhyped
• pasupare’s songs are SO GOOD!! shuwa shuwa dreamin, pasupare revolution, tenka toitsu a to z, and hanamaru andante are some of my favorites but honestly all of their songs are so good!!!!! including covers!!!
• i honestly ship kaokoko more than kaochisa these days
• hhw is really tiring and i dont really like any of their songs or covers much? and the characters make me feel overwhelmed? normally i tend to like more plain/realistic characters like sayo, hina, and tae anyway. i just dont get the hype idk
• kasumi has my second favorite voice out of the vocalists, second to yukina. idk i really like it?
• passionate starmine is the best roselia song
• popipa is super underrated and the five members are really good characters
• maya is looked over and it sucks please give her love
• pasupare has the best story out of all the bands and honestly the best characters too!! and their music!!! pasupare is best
• i love the tanabata set its the best set so far
• i dont understand how you can love one hikawa and hate the other. initially hina was my best girl and i didnt like sayo but after reading into their story more i love them both so much and theyre both important and loveable and in the wrong in the situation djangienfisnfjdjwn
• ayahina!! please love them!!!

okay i have to be done ouch

my favorite thing of those "unpopular opinions" posts is that they reveal that those opinions... aren't even that unpopular

EDIT: who. who brought this back? it's been 4 months

Jumping on to this unpopular opinion bandwagon:

1. I feel like a lot of people don’t like Yukina and Sayo because they’re too harsh, but honestly I just feel like they’re awkward people that just don’t know how to get their feelings across properly a lot of the time.
2. I really can’t see Kaoru x Chisato working out. I know it’s a popular ship, but I really don’t see any chemistry between them, and honestly feels like it’d be pretty one-sided.
3. The last harihapi set was kinda ugly. As much as I want to hug Michelle in that costume (I feel so sorry for misaki though she must be dying in all those layers I want to hug her too) the bright colours hurt my eyes.
4. I like a lot of roselia’s original songs but some of their covers are meh
