juri akamine (NEP2NE)

day four of bandtober is bassist(s)! just juri for today since DARK★PORTAL's bass is all completely computer-generated. hopefully all my catch-up work will be finished so i can start working on the regular days.

juri is blunt, methodical, and deadpan. she is experienced in the musical field and very jaded -- she's been in a handful of bands, the most notable of which was a fairly serious band. this band made it to the finals of a girls' band contest before losing and subsequently splitting up. this failure resounded with her, and was a main reason she was so hesitant to join NEP2NE in the first place. her experience in the industry puts her at an advantage over her band mates, barring kiyoko, and while she may seem like she holds it over their heads, all she really wants is to be helpful and find her place in the band. juri idolizes RAS, specifically CHU² and LAYER.

in the band, juri is also the manager and advisor. her expertise and knowledge about the social climate of bands and the professional industry puts her, and the band, ahead of most self-managed girl bands. along with kiyoko, she works on equipment and booking.

This was yesterday, but lmaOOOOO

What is the probability? xD

I know I've been shoving some D4DJ Content in your face lately but I love Peaky P-Key okay!! WISH YOU LUCK EIEN NO OWARI WO KITTO KANASHIKU WA NAINDAAAA KIMI WO OMOU KIMOCHI WA KAWARANAIII

someone talk to me about them i have nothing but my own mind for a companion lately

also take my tierlist

i never realized how much i actually like pasupare... rn im listening to the fuwa fuwa time cover and i find ayas voice really calming to listen to... luminous once more is probably tied for my favorite bandori song... pasupares costumes are really cute.. my favorites out of the five bands but i might just like idols idk. also i love how pasupare is supposed to be inspirational perfect shining idols but behind the scenes they're a mess. they might not have character synergy like popipa or afterglow but i love chisato trying to keep everyone together while everything is burning and it makes me really look up to chisato. also pastel life is so cute and im surprised its not really talked about?? and i love pasupares like overall theme idk i just love my idols. also pasupare makes some of the best songs and i love their "new" style of songs and their old style and all of their songs are boppin. anyway that was kaede_ rambling about pasupare thanks for listening

we're back with another edition of covers with atrocious self-made instrumentals because Bushimo remains unkind.

IGNITION! been wanting to sing this one since it came out aaaaa

please pay no attention to the rap parts they're embarrassing to listen to ghdkjfhjd but I couldn't just leave them out ... I'm sorry I'm rly bad at that

I put more effort into this than usual with harmonies and stuff to disguise the instrumental coughs

today is one of the most important days on the planet, pretty long post you’ve been warned

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MISAKIIIIIIIIII!!!! MY BEST GIRL FOREVER, NO ONE IN THE WORLD WILL TAKE YOUR PLACE

and we’re actually so similar??? just a list:

• we’re both dry

• our resting faces make us look so upset lol

• completely insecure

• both of us usually don’t know where we belong

• overthinkers

• down to earth

• sarcastic

(trust me I’m not mean ;-; and neither is misaki)

(these all seem negative imma start putting positive ones ehem)

• logical

• caring, but we don’t seem to know how to show it

• thought processes are the same haha

• would laugh at one of our friends for being irrational (like in band story 2)

• SAME FASHION SENSE LIKE-

and that’s only a few things... we’re the same person mii-kun

Here’s a my journey with Misaki through bandori :3 And maybe my message to her

when I say that I did not like her at all at the beginning...

I guess it’s because she seemed so upset in a group of people that we’re always smiling. What made me change my mind though, was the “Misaki in Da House” event. I really like the card when I saw it, that’s for sure, but I actually read the event story. THIS is what made me realize “wow we’re super similar lol”

so of course I started to want the carddd I WAS ABLE TO SOLO IT, YESSUR (on an account that died :’) then I got pirate misaki but THAT ACCOUNT DIED TOO)

getting a four star of a girl rlly makes you open ur eyes for them lol but this went EXTREME with misaki, at that point she had made me a harohapi FAN not stan, I think I was an aflow stan then (I love them a lot still)

Since I was a fan, I stared reading more and more of the their band stories, and by the Halloween event I had fallen in complete love. This was the stan point lol

As a misaki stan, I soon became a harohapi stan, but moca will still my best girl then I think it was her white day card that made her surpass all

and she stayed that way! no one has beat misaki ever since that event :3 I swear misaki you are the best thing that has happened to my life (especially in 2020 :’)), and I hope we can keep our sanity from falling apart together haha

AND IM SO SORRY THAR I TALK ABOUT MASSU MORE THAN YOU ;-; I LOVE YOU BOTH SO MUCH BUT TRUST ME YOU COME ON TOP

HAPPY! LUCKY! SMILE! YAY!!! Hope you like the drawing!

personally rlly proud of the shading hehe

I’m gonna do one with her df untrained outfit but I won’t finish in time so it’ll just be another present to her I guess <3

Nayuta-kun as inspired by Jin-kun in LR Fes live

I'm aware this shirt actually has sleeves but I didn't feel like copying Jin's whole outfit so I just cut them off

Day 29: Characters I relate to

it's funny how the girls i relate to the most are actually my best girls

Misaki: i'm copying and pasting what i put for her birthday post thank you

• we’re both dry

• our resting faces make us look so upset lol

• completely insecure

• both of us usually don’t know where we belong

• overthinkers

• down to earth

• sarcastic

• SAME FASHION SENSE LIKE

that's a lot actually but it seems pretty self explanatory if dont understand plz comment because i have no idea how to explain this lol

Masuki, and I'll do bullet points and YAY EXPLAINING BECAUSE I CAN THIS TIME

• misunderstood/assumed or underestimated i cant find the word

• both love cute stuff probably to death

• speak rlly similar (i dOnT cuRsE oKaY)

• kind of the same personality (passionate, "hot-headed" if you must, laid-back)

• very random but like we lay down on the ground a lot

• both yell a lot actually

• dunno it seems like she's the type to hide her feelings (i have one piece of evidence and it sounds like a spoiler when i type it out) which i do a BUNCH

• not necessarily same fashion sense (because you would never see me wear that long skirt and those shoes), but i would 100% wear that usagi jacket can i have it please-

• idk but just wanted to note that one drastic thing that we DONT have in common is baking/cooking, i swear i tried to make pancakes today and couldn't even hold the spatula the right way

explanation: so when most ppl see masuki the first thing they think is probably """""'scary""""" or """"""""""""""""""""""""""""mean"""""""""""""""""""""""""""" (i FREAKING dare you to call her mean if you know her personality), but like on the inside she's just some girl that loves to play drums and probably more than that loves everything cute <3 same with me like if you saw me for the first time you'd probably be SO SCARED LIKE I LITERALLY NEVER LOOK HAPPY (thanks stupid eyebrows & eyes) but i'm just some girl that can't seem to keep up with her age when it she's alone (do you remember me putting that i'm a childish person on my get to know me questions thing? it's truth i have like 7 stuffed animals on my bed and i feel really weird without them its a problem-) and also loves adorable things in every way

then the rest i think is pretty self explanatory

honorable mentions: Maya, Tae, Rimi, Saaya, Rei, Tsugu, Rinko, and from reading her character description Nanami but I'm not a genius lol

okay not related but I went to check how tall I was in cm and I realized that I’m 1 cm taller than O-Tae. that’s really tall for my age I-

Another question for fanbands! If your fanband(s) were to hold a live (Morfonica's Cantabile, Roselia/RAS' Rausch&Craziness, PasuPare's Irodori Special, etc.), what would the live(s) be called?

Solo lives, joint lives with existing bands or other fanbands, group lives with a lot of other bands, whatever the lives are for and about, that's for you to think about!

I’m starting this challenge! So day 1 fav character (s): 1.himari uehara 2.moca 3.ran/misaki 4.tomoe 5.CHU2
