Wake up, it’s time for Aikatsu!
Idols from another school try to secretly invade? Now where have I heard that storyline before… See what happens this week when two stars come together to become one!
Also, our wonderful encoder tested what the 4K broadcast was like and redid episode 1. The native resolution is 810p, which means that it is the best size it can possibly be. We likely won’t be continuing this going forward, but either way, you can now enjoy the opening of the story in the highest possible quality (outside BDs, probably).
Really, will see this for sure.
As well…something is bugging me lately the site is being categorized by google “not secure” not that i doubt you guys oblivious, but it would be best to repair this.
So now that Laura isn’t around anymore, Yume wants to settle for the next best thing. I see, I see.
Wow, that was fast this week. Thanks !
(Moroboshi is the best drama-queen)
So the honor of the first collaboration goes to YuMio, interesting.
Thank you very much!
810p?! G-golly! Guess I should update those Nvidia drivers after all! Arigatou, Encoder-san (´つ≧∀◕⊂)~ 。o○☆ ✧･ﾟ:
I was surprised we got climbing before the Ichigo encounter.
OH MY GOD AINE’S CHEST… THEY RECONFIRMED THE SIZE OF HER BOBBINS… THEY RECONFIRMED THE SIZE OF HER BOBBIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIヽ(●ﾟ´Д｀ﾟ●)ﾉﾟIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(display No-No Zone explosion here)
(drats I didn’t mean for this comment to format like that… also one of my comments got spammed but I left one picture link this time! The comment refereed to Mio’s lack of PJs. Hope it shows soon, in the meantime I’ll post the rest of my comments…)
*referred…
This scene was totemo stupid kawaii and I’d be inclined to sniff her hair the moment she fell down and all the perspiration splashed about and earlier my No-No Zone exploded so you don’t have to worry about that (#WOMP), but I found it funny how AiStar’s aikatsu was really intense while Aine/Mio literally jumped on a trampoline. Like:
Yume: *sits in the air* “So what’s your Aikatsu like?”
Aine/Mio: *jumps on a trampoline* (#WOMP)
Also, I know I dropped Stars at episode 5 (or 7) but no lie that Mahiru song was… not bad. I’d go so far to say that it’s better than anything AiFriends ever produced in the span of 76 episodes (her tik-tok-ish dance moves were a bit much tho)
Even the ending song was good! Was that originally from Stars? Or something new for Parade? Regardless it’s good. I’m inclined to watch AiStars past episode 5 (or 7)… Kyaha~ Just kidding! (#WOMP)
Anyway, this was A REALLY FUN EPISODE!!! I’m giving it a solid 7.1 AIKATSUS OUT OF 10!!! I’m still surprised how every other AiStar chara outshines Yume… I mean, she’s supposed to be the main chara, right? Oh well, the more she takes a back-seat the better! At least she made Mio use her “spark” catchphrase again…
Also the only reason I made multiple comments is to avoid being marked as spam! Whenever I add more than one picture/hyperlink in a single comment, it’ll get marked as spam! But I’m not spam!… I’m not!!! ヽ(●ﾟ´Д｀ﾟ●)ﾉﾟ
“But Jay! One could argue that posting multiple comments is the same as spam!” (#WOMP)
Also @Akatsukin WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS?!?! THE LETTER Z WITH AN APOSTROPHE AT THE END OF THAT SENTENCE?!?! It’s the mark of… The Fallen King! Who… WHO TOLD YOU ABOUT THAT?!?!… DON’T PUT Z’s WITH APOSTROPHES ANYMORE!!!
Just one of those days for Akatsukin! .z’
Thanks!
Big up @Akatsukin as always and big salute to @J159 for the analysis on Aine!
No… YOU SHOULDN’T PRAISE A PERVERT!!! ヽ(●ﾟ´Д｀ﾟ●)ﾉﾟ
“You’re talking about J159 here, right?”
Yes
“Just making sure” (#WOMP)
Also went ahead and watched this raw first due to excitement, but I think my favorite parts were the fact that Aine, Mio, and Raki were all wearing Yotsuboshi jerseys, Your Beautiful Story as the ED this time, and of course everyone doing Aikatsu together. One of the big things when it comes to these types of all-star/crossover casts is the “what if” factor of these characters interacting and so far it’s been shaping up pretty well in terms of the Aikatsu they do. And I cannot wait for more crossover performances. I think it’s unfortunate though that we don’t get to hear that transformation music since with all the different songs and animations differing between the series would probably not make it work. But hey, if it means the Aphorisms keep coming back I can’t really complain can I?
Does that mean I’ll be able to hear Calendar girl as ending song again after all these years?
I’m not sure what I was expecting from this new chapter, but the new rendition of Stardom almost made me cry even though I’d spoiled myself on it accidentally via aitube. Also, Raki getting to take cues from all these predecessors is really sweet. Looking forward to more of this one!
