Well neither of us are a match for Huggy :p

btw for those of you who were watching Hanayamata, what did you think of it overall?


I liked it. Some of the drama was kinda eh, like the thing with Yaya and her band members. The OP was the best and was glad to hear the whole version in the show. I am kind of disappointed at the amount of dancing though. The only dance we see is the one from the OP, so cheap haha. At least they weren't CG.

Ending spoilers

I think Hana coming back was kinda cheap, but I expected it and it was really the only way to have a happy ending without some time skip or something weird. Still liked the ending though.


No more faces from Safs now the show is over :(

wow, that image is better than I thought it would be
Yeah, I love his art. Even though it wasn't intended for me it made me really happy
And thanks guys. Between an UR, new Emitsun Fight Club, this image and a μ's performance on NHK's Music Japan (though it will take a while to be aired so we can watch it), this birthday was full of Love Live

I don't think you want to hear my opinion on this.
But I guess I will blame Madhouse, at least partly. They just shouldn't have picked up a show like this in the first place, it's not their genre.

@events: Just collecting tokens without spending Loveca, so nothing too exciting going on.
But I plan to go at least for a second card in the upcoming Maki event.

Oh and I suck at this game, so I will never FC any real EX song. That's basically the reason why I never say anything in these EX/FC discussions.

Finally something I can relate to, hah. I thought everyone was FCing these EX songs for breakfast.

A bit off-topic guys, but fripSide (Nanjolno's group) just released their third album Infinite Synthesis 2 with songs like Sister's Noise, Eternal Reality (Toaru Kagaku no Railgun S OPs) and the Black Bullet OP in it. It's available already if any of you wants to hear it.

And happy birthday to Fek, if it's still your birthday wherever you live, your post is still listed as today in my place :D

You're still probably better than me, I'm still scared to play EX songs as I feel I'm gonna die almost everytime I play one!



Also Good Morning Nyaaaaas

Wow never noticed how awful the background CG fodder was. As bad as the one in Baby Steps, except they are in motion lol.

lol I went back to play Anemone Heart Hard/Normal since I played those a long time ago and I kept a better combo on EX than on those two

EX - 271
Hard - 178
Normal - 154

its a weird song


Yeah anemone heart is harder on hard for me lol. I can't get a good combo at all on that one.

Eventually you'll get enough good/great > perfect chars from events/draws. They'll carry you.

I call them the CG monsters and they are one of the reasons why season 2 is better then 1 for me. Love them.

edit: I meant opening.

Release the CG MONSTERS!!!

Probably just second tier. Not sure what the cutoffs are like in JP and I've also never ranked high in an event.

2nd tier isn't too bad, as they've raised the caps to keep up with the users. We're a couple hundred behind the Eli token event pace, which finished at 27k. We could be heading for a mid 25k finish.

Does anyone want to make a guess where the ~1000 rank cut off will be at at the end at this Rin event. I'm having some difficulties planning ahead and I don't want to have to grind for 12 hours when I find out I did not put enough time in.

Just assume at least 25K.

Looking at the past few events, I'd say over 26,000 is needed.
So 27,000 should be safe.

Its probably going to be closer to 27 or 28k. We just got some free loveca after all.

Edit. Up to 2112 moon tokens ... That is a lot of ex plays.

Eli tier didn't have 4x or ex. People are now starting to hoard.

So I just played/listened to Umi's event song, and holy shit that song sucks. Even worse than that one song I was dogging on last time. I think it was Hanayo's event song maybe. Did she have a second event? If so then yeah that one.

I haven't played this game in a while and played again today. I just realized that they patched the G->P skill icon so it only shows up one at a time.

I also got some new headphones, senn 598s, pretty comfy, gotta get that short cable though

Geez why you have to mention headphones. I want to get some opened back ones now. Lol


Also what they removed those red music icons showing up more than once? So lame I like seeing all of them pop up.

It's nice being able to take this event casually. I'm still going for the Top 1000, but at least it's not as stressful as the Top 200 for Nozomi. That was hell.

well the notices usually don't specify right

fingers crosses for UR Nozomi

I just checked and you're right they haven't specified in the past.
They specify what cards have been added in the notice after the maintenance period.

Looking at the list of cards, it might be UR Eli and the last 2 Job SRs. Not sure what other cards we are missing at the moment.

I'll go edit the edit post, Thanks for pointing that out.
