Hello everyone! I was going to make a new introduction post, but I got too caught up with stuff so this'll serve as my first real post.
I've been working on some character concepts of mine for a few months now, and they're just now getting to a point where they're getting finalised. They're not really bandori OCs per se, but they follow the five member dynamic that bandori does. They're meant to be a more casual band, that make songs that they like for fun, and are just seeing where it takes them. They met each other through various means, but the two I'm posting about today are long-time best friends. I'll post two characters here today, and post the other three when I get to some finished concepts. Also because five'd be way too long of a post. Also also, their bios aren't 100% yet, still thinking over likes/dislikes, etc.
(Sorry if markdown makes the pictures too big, I'll resize asap if they are.)
Age: 17, 3rd year
Birthday: September 30th
Height: 174cm
Role in Band: Guitarist, first one to mention the idea, song writer partly
Likes: Iced Coffee, the beach
Dislikes: Not getting things done
Personality: The member that originally came up with the idea to form a band with the rest. A fun loving and energetic person, who’s really chill and laid-back. Although she comes off as silly and immature, she’s really understanding of others, and her close friends often come to her for comfort and advice. She keeps up this sort of outgoing ‘persona’ to not bring the people around her down, and to make up for the fact she's introverted and awkward at socialising. Sometimes she gets a bit carried away and overworks herself, and may need a reminder that she’s just as human as everyone else. She's been best friends with Eri since she could remember. She plays music as an enjoyable past-time that she's willing to go into professionally if things works out, but she has many backups if not.
Age: 17, 3rd year
Birthday: July 12th
Height: 165cm
Role in Band: Bassist
**Likes: ** Pancakes, video games
Dislikes: Complicated situations
**Personality: **A kind and quirky person. A very genuine person, who isn’t afraid to give the truth to people. No matter what she does, it wouldn’t seem out of character. She's curious about the numerous things that life has in store, but is quite afraid of taking risks. Can sometimes be a little bit inattentive. She grew up kind of spoiled by her parents, so when she faces an obstacle in her life or doesn’t get her way, it can affect her more than others. Although, she's not afraid to show her weak spots or admit defeat when she comes across an obstacle, as she’s not very organised and hasn’t exactly got her life together. Good with conversation and is generally liked by most people, but she's drained easily by it. Been best friends with Chitose for years. Sort of hoping the band thing works out, as she's sort of out of ideas of what else she wants to pursue as a career.
Hopefully that wasn't too long, haha. I'll probably monologue a bit more about the project when I get the other three done, but for now I'll keep it short. I plan to make some for of comic/manga or something, most likely in the form of 1-komas/4-komas. I tried to start an actual full page manga, but it took over an hour to draft a single page, so I don't think my work ethic will allow that to happen. Now I have left over scripts with no purpose...
Also...I have no idea on a name of the band. I don't want it to be too serious-sounding, but I don't want it stupid-sounding. All the characters met under different circumstances, so there's not much that links them together, either symbolically or literally. Maybe I can use that though? The name could be 'unfocused' or something of that nature? Not sure, if anyone has suggestions, I'd love to hear them. Anyways, I'm out for now!
Edit: Thank god posts have a show more button now, markdown seems okay.

Hey guys!
We are already on the half of the challenge! Let's continue on this pace!
Day 15: Favorite origin story!
Well... I will just choose based on what I saw until now. And I will choose PoPiPa (wow, what a surprise!).
Sorry, I am a Poppin'Party fanboy, so I will love everything they appear on...
Let me explain at least. Even knowing the anime is not as good as it should be, I loved the story. I really liked how they became friends and how they surpassed their problems because of that. And obviously, the part I liked the most was the Saya and Kasumi "arc". Another thing I appreciate is the character development, since everyone evolved when they entered the band. Kasumi learned she doesn't need to be alone to solve her personal problems, Arisa and Tae learned the value of a real friendship, Rimi learned she does need courage and will to move on her own, and Saya learned she can be happy. All in all, I really love their story!
But just not to be fair, let's choose a story from the game as a honorable mention. And surprisingly, I will choose Pastel*Palettes this time.
This story really surprised me. On the contrary of HaroHapi, they didn't befriended so easily, and different from Roselia, they did not have a common objective. Their story is very unique, since they learn how to interact and work as a team. It is probably the most interesting story and the best among the 5 (inside the game)!
That's it! Until tomorrow, guys! ;)
