Haha, the SRs are inevitable if you play the game a lot. It's people with URs to envy. I have 2 idolized SRs, 10 non-idolized SRs, and 1 UR. 5 of the SRs are event SRs that I've gotten just by participating in the events. The rest mostly come from 10+1 pulls after the events are over and guaranteed SR pulls begin.

What special draw? I play the EN version.
Yeah I only play EN too. Only said 8 months because someone else did.
Can everyone that added me recently delete me and add me on my new ID; 300129073.
I started over, hopefully my new leader is more useful to people aswell.
I also really hope that there will be some stability updates in the future. The amount of unexpected app crashes I've had so far is ridiculous. Must be the most unstable game I've played so far.

Also honkers get in the JP version!
Gonna be a while til I get Nozomi though.
okay here's my new id, i'd appreciate it if everyone could add me again, just delete my english account
Re-added both of you. Also Vylash you could always play both versions if you have the time, so I won't delete your EN account yet just in case.
Btw does anyone know the best settings to play this game? I usually have my power saving mode turned on. Tried to turn it off just now and the game seems more laggy (a couple of random goods on Otomeshiki Renai Juku), which is weird since shouldn't the phone be able to pull more power to support the game?
Yeah, I just didn't want people wasting 2 slots on me

I am just waiting for a kotori/maki/eli event to play for a bit
but i have been playing the Japanese game way before the English one. Because i never expected it to have an english release. I invested way more time in the JPN version and have way better cards so i cant just drop that.tsuntsun_Hime
Neo Member
Understandable. I wouldn't drop the JPN either.I am just waiting for a kotori/maki/eli event to play for a bit
BTW I blame you for my recent mishap in score match, if I had been paying attention to the screen instead of looking for Kotori gifs.

Hopefully everyone uses their free Loveca on this event since I'm not trying for top 1000. That'll leave the next event open for me to make my move.
I'm playing only ENG version too.

I only play the English version as well. The best part of 25LP songs and 4x event songs is that I don't have to play the game as much to get the same rewards. I don't know why I would want to play a second version and force myself to play twice as much.
You have until March 31st 2015 to open your boxset before the UR Honoka code expires. It comes with an English Weiss Schwarz card as well, hopefully we won't need to play Weiss Schwarz to get the other promo cards. I tend to open my boxsets if they have stuff like this so I don't end up forgetting and letting the codes expire.
The small fan book thing is alright, nothing special really. It has bios for μ, an episode summary, a load of images taken from the PVs/anime/promo art, a very short message from each μ VA about "what is charming about Love Live" and a message from the VA to the character they play. Some of the screenshots make me want to search for them in the anime/PVs to see if I can make some new GIFs.
I would comment on the quality of the anime as well, (translations/picture quality/etc) but like I said before, the region lock means I can't watch them. I found the boxes kind of flimsy since they're slimcase. The covers are simple, made from promo art I think, the back has screenshots from the anime. It does the job, could be fancier I guess. 9 episodes on the first disc and the last 4 eps on the second disc along with a clean version of the OP&ED, "Original TV spots" whatever that means, and the original trailers. I can confirm the region lock works perfectly! Nothing I tried so far woud allow me to watch them.
I would upload some pictures of the box and fan book since I just did a review basically, but I don't have the time to wait for them to upload right now, maybe later today.
Yeah I'm not sure what was up with Flickr. I'll try signing up for Flickr again later today with a different username, it's just strange it let me sign up for the ID Qurex yesterday and then refuse to let me login. I'll try signing up for minus today as well.
My upload speeds shouldn't be that bad, at least I hope not. I've never actually checked. The problem I had yesterday was more to do imgur eating my uploads rather than having a shit upload speed. I had 2 versions of the problem with imgur eating my uploads.
The first had imgur tells that my upload was "pending", and would stay like that without changing after leaving it alone for 5 minutes or longer. I would try to upload another image but since the first one hasn't even started, the second image is also stuck. I would have to close the tab/refresh the page/etc to cancel the uploads so I could try again.
The second was where imgur attempts to upload my image. I could actually see the upload bar slowly moving. I was browsing GAF in another tab while it uploads. I go back to the imgur tab after a few minutes and the upload had disappeared. At first I thought I had accidentally cancelled it or something so I would try it again and the same thing happens. So I decided to leave my PC and get a drink while it uploads. Same thing happened. I decided to watch it upload at one point and watched it disappear as it finished uploading. It was as if I never uploaded the image. Somehow I was eventually able to upload the images, no idea how though.
I only play the English version at the moment. I'm not sure I want to play this game even more than I do already.
Also, Happy Birthday Kotori!
"All these gifs, for me?"
Happy birthday, Kotori
Yo, I would love to see pics of this it sounds really cute.
Maybe something to do with the browser you are using or with addblock? ps we cant really speak about addblock here i believe. but for some reason it gives problems when i visit minus but when i turn them off there are now problems.
also more gifs!!
COME ON BRING IT
Oh god so many Kotori gifs that I've never seen before! My head is about to explode where can I find all these .gifs!?!?!
On tumblr my little alpaca!
Also chariot stopped supporting his idol website so our gif section is not as up to date as it used too.

So much Kotori.... lol
Here is everything that you get with the Premium edition. 2 Blurays, a Weiss Schwarz card, a short fan book, a code for the promo UR Honoka card and a hard cardboard case to hold everything.
The small fan book thing is alright, nothing special really.
It has:
I would comment on the quality of the anime as well, (translations/picture quality/etc), but since it is region locked, I can't actually watch it.
I found the Bluray boxes kind of flimsy since they're slimcase. The boxes are empty on the inside, no inner pictures on the reverse of the cover and nothing in the box.
The covers are simple, made from promo art I think, the back has screenshots from the anime. It does the job, could be fancier I guess.
9 episodes on the first disc and the last 4 episodes on the second disc along with a clean version of the OP&ED, "Original TV spots" whatever that means, and the original trailers.
I can confirm the region lock works perfectly! Nothing I tried so far would allow me to watch them. I will have to find a region free bluray player or something
Full album is here, hopefully this loads properly. It has pics of the VAs messages
I'll take more pictures of the book and other stuff if anyone wants.
Not sure if that was the problem, I did try disabling my addons in Firefox, it didn't seem to make much difference. I tried Internet Explorer 11 as well and had the same problems. They eventually uploaded in IE11, not in Firefox though. Perhaps the problem is my upload speeds?
I didn't know about that "not allowed to talk about adblock" thing before. Thanks, I'll keep that in mind

They're in the album, should be the last 9 images. I considered linking them here but I didn't think it would be a good idea to have that many images in my post.

Don't worry, it happens only once a year. ^^
I'm unsure about the ToS here regarding it, but I use AnyDVD HD to play import BDs on my computer. Some of the best money I've spent.

This is the standard MO for all the NISA sets. It makes them feel premium without actually adding more costs... which is how they get away with charging ten bucks more than Funimation or Sentai.
That said, I wonder who paid for the promo stuff - Bushiroad or NISA. Although I suppose they're literally just pieces of paper and digital data. lol
Nice stuff you got there qurex!
Relax guys kotori gaf is great its only for a day. So sit down and have some coffee
I wonder what that pic would look like if the reflection Kotori got in the coffee was the same as your avatar Kotori hahaha
Thank youuuu! Reading this stuff makes me want to watch the show again.
Less than 3 hours till EN gets Kotori's birthday loveca. And event song on EX. >< so ready.
But I'm kinda pissed that when I woke up, no new cards. Last event we got new cards a day or two before EX right?
I thought it was finally time for me to FC Baby Maybe Koi no Button on Hard, but noo! I had to mess up on a single note to wreck my combo. Lol, I'll ALWAYS mess up somewhere.
Glad I'm not at the point of hating the song yet so it is not that much of an issue for me, even though I must have tried 80 times now between both accounts.

Lol that would be interesting and crazy. But i am not in the mode to do photoshopping now. And not that much experience with editing gifs.
You ask we deliver!
Honoka-chan!!!

Happy Birthday little bird...
Thanks for this, I'll have to keep this in mind.
It looks really useful but I'm not sure if I'd rather pay for free lifetime upgrades or just upgrade to a region free BD player instead. Since I haven't got many other imported BDs at the moment, only DVDs which I can watch since my DVD player is region free. Not sure if you're allowed to say here, but which license did you buy? If there aren't that many upgrades to the software then buying this would be a lot cheaper than a new BD player.
I've never actually bought an anime release by NISA before this, so I didn't know that until just now. Makes sense though, it does seem more premium just because of the box and the small book. Not sure if I've bought a release by Funimation or Sentai either, I would need to check since I mainly buy the European releases. I thought Sentai releases weren't that great though compared to Funimation?
I would assume Bushiroad paid for the promo stuff. Since the game and trading cards are their products after all, plus they would have had to print the card and paper themselves. It was added as a last minute thing if I remember correctly. Either that or Bandai was involved and asked them or something
I'm glad that the photos were readable it looked a bit dark and blurry to me. I tired taking photos with flash on but then you couldn't read anything.
I thought that the reason we got cards and a draw added last time was because we were behind the Japanese schedule. Have we still not caught up to the original release schedule?
Have you tried singing/humming along to the song? It might help you keep to the rhythm
Some how I can never fail to hear Kotori's voice if you put "Honoka-chan" and a picture of Kotori together.
