Over-analysing time.

The announcement trailer gave us previews for the rest of Roselia's trained art + costumes, but who could be who? Here's what I think.

First up, the costume representing Beatrice. Very simple, this is Ako. A small (and often perceived as younger) girl fits perfectly for Ako, the youngest and smallest of all Garupa characters. Plus, you can see a tuft of purple hair on the top. Definitely Ako's.

Second, the costume representing Felt. Also easy, this is Lisa. I could say something about the pose, but you can see her hair and glossed lips.

Lastly, you get to Rem and Ram. These ones are way harder to judge from image alone, but I believe Rinko will be Rem and Sayo will be Ram, for two reasons. One: The personalities of both match well. Two: Rinko hasn't had a Limited 4☆, and these costumes are coming from the most prominent females from Re:Zero, at least from the first half (which totals to 5 main girls anyway, if my memory isn't screwing with me). Emilia (who is Yukina) and Rem (who, I think, is Rinko) are the two main female characters in Re:Zero. Why wouldn't you have the 4☆ Gacha cards be them? No, Rinko not having a Limited 4☆ doesn't inherently mean she is guaranteed one, but there are enough factors to believe that she will be one with Yukina.

There's no way Yukina isn't a Gacha 4☆. I refuse to believe that they wouldn't make her one.

There's my thoughts. What are yours?

Now, what attribute will this event be..? And is there a chance EN gets the event early, like how they got Persona early? Doubt it, but possible.

Edit: NOTICED SOMETHING NOTICED SOMETHING Rem has an earring with a jewel that matches Rinko's image colour while Ram has an earring jewel that matches Sayo's image colour. That pretty much confirms Rinko will be Rem and Sayo will be Ram.

Yesterday, I counted all the event cards each girl (and band) had so today, I'm counting all of the girls' Gacha Cards. I'll be noting the amount of event types (band/mixed bonus), the number of event appearances and, of course, the number of 2☆, 3☆ and 4☆ available in the Gacha pool, one for limited cards only and one for every card released. It's 16:13 BST for me, let's get started.

Note: Yearly Costume 2☆, Launch 3☆, existing DreamFes and promo cards will not be counted as either they are universal to all girls, or a gift from an external event. I WILL be counting the Launch 4☆ PoPiPa set, since that set is exclusive to PoPiPa. If you want the totals of JUST Event Gacha Cards, minus 1 from their 4☆ totals.

I've lost all will to do anything productive (it's 17:49 so it's been about an hour and a half) so I'll leave any points of notice or any kind of discussion to you. Remember I did make an Event Card version so make some links between the two. I do have one thing to say that's jumped out at me, though.

Tsugu is the only character with more Event Gacha 3☆ than EG 4☆ AND is 1 of 7 characters with more Event 2☆ than Event 3☆. Let's not forget the fact that she has the least amount of 4☆ at 4 (not counting DreamFes) AND tied for 2nd for Event Appearances at 20.

CRAFTEGG, WHY?!

Right so the stuff about my OC band would be way too large to put nicely on here so I made a document to put all the info down.

I vastly underestimated how much I would write. I get that I started with the character who would have the most information but I'm not even halfway done with the first character and it's already 3 pages long...

Expect me to show the band around Sunday. No promises.

Scratch that plan, I'll be lucky to finish this before I leave on holiday...

Reon birthday gacha is up and aaaAAAAAAAAAAAAA PLEASE LOOK AT MY SON HE'S BEAUTIFUL—

and please stop me from scouting I'll need the event 3*s more BUT REON ...... REON ............

also, birthday log-in bonus is 500 stones, as if this game wasn't generous enough already ... I actually have a bunch to say about that but I'll keep that for another post

for now I'll just lay down and cry over Reon

//e: I FORGOT TO SAY HAPPY BIRTHDAY,,, HAPPY BIRTHDAY REON ILY

sorta late on this cause I spent all day sitting on the couch and playing mobage sorry--

ANYWAY, AAside news!

starting on the 31st at 15:00 JST is the next event, MANIFESTO ～Declaration of War～! (the subtitle of which, side note, is the same Sensenfukoku as the Sensenfukoku in ... SENSENFUKOKU ...) looks like Ryou's gonna be one of the 4*s.

and I will be suffering cause 3/4 of my useable Gyro cards are Cool which will be completely useless next event oh my gOD,

before that though, on the 29th (so ... today) at 16:00 JST, there'll be an update with some bug fixes as well as design changes to the session part, specifically making the double hold notes more visible and adding an option to change note size. there's also changes to the background in the logo 2D mode but I've never used that so no idea what that will amount to lol

as an apology for the issues experienced so far, we'll all get 500 Navistones!

Currently sobbing

Nagisa!! She's a return gift I drew for JaY (Aka Momoyukiis here on Banpa!)

Thank you to JaY for giving me permission to post! ^-^

How are we doing Kaoru stans

I was doodling yesterday and my hand decided to come up with a baby but I don't feel like colouring her rn

So. Let's talk about the problem we have on hand because I feel like this is escalating and it REALLY needs to be addressed.

For those who don't know, one user posted a tier list where they put Kaoru in the bottom tier and said she should die, in addition to saying some disrespectful things about her (such as calling her ugly) on their profile.

A LOT of people (myself included) aren't taking this well. Telling an unproblematic fictional character to die for the sole reason you dislike them is just tactless and immature if you ask me. It's completely okay not to like certain characters, but telling them to die when they did nothing wrong can come off as offensive to fans of the character.

Unfortunately, this problem just got more complicated and is spiraling into outright discourse because of this one post.

To sum things up, you don't have to like certain characters, but you should be respectful, mature and tactful about it because you could hurt someone's feelings by badmouthing them without any basis. And I also saw someone brush this off because "the site is full of 13 year olds we're too old for this discourse" and that is EXTREMELY dismissive and rude. So what if a good chunk of people on the site are young and "easily offended" or something? Go read a book or something instead of insulting the community.

(edit): The tier list has been deleted! I was actually intending on deleting this post as well now that things are starting to simmer down....but I can't because the site won't let me. Oh well.

Gyro news roundup, I guess???

so I was wrong and Ryou is just a rly nice looking event 3*, not a 4*, which is good for Ryou oshi and bad for me because I was hoping it would be Kenta, I need a Kenta

instead Kenta is a 4* alongside Nayuta!

I'm a big fan of this vocalists in hats trend we're seeing here. these outfits also make a reappearance ... on the cover for ONE! ONE of them at least.

(in order: character ver, seiyuu ver, limited edition)

I'll spare you all the bonus info for now, it's not that relevant and I'm on mobile, but the most important part is that they showed a preview for HELLO which may or may not have killed me, as this franchise often seems to ... it's written and arranged by Miya from MUCC and I love its vibe a whole lot. Gyro can do no wrong

and now excuse me as I go relisten to that a bunch. adieu

Cool PoPiPa event? BS3 POPIPA HAS GOT TO BE PURE NOW, I REFUSE TO BELIEVE OTHERWISE

If only I've been playing... My Pure PoPiPa team must be in tears.
