Anime Expo Aikatsu and Prism Cosplay Meetup

Nobody else did it, so it falls to me to at least get it started. I’m organizing (for now) a potential cosplay meetup and photo shoot at AX this year. Come join the Discord server for more information.

We’re having it on Day 3, Saturday July 6th, from 12-1 PM at site 6, which is in the area between the two main entrances of West and South Halls.

Aikatsu Friends! – 054

If you look closely at the new CG, you’ll notice that one part of her is mature now…

Whoa, Chiba Misuzu is finally back to write this great Aine/Wakaba/Hibiki episode! Even with all the embarrassment it teaches an enduring lesson that even adults would do well to remember. And while this week was great, next episode is something I’ve been looking forward to for well over a year… what could it possibly be?

Aikatsu Friends! – 053

Oh! Whether to choose beauty marks, glasses, or fangs!

At the risk of repeating myself, Hibiki’s character, backstory, personality, and development are all perfect (and no, that’s not a reference). Her passion and love with no outlet, countless hours of convincing her heart of her true feelings, even while alone with no feedback to go by, strikes me on a personal level. And her creativity in making unique scenarios doesn’t hurt either. I want to see more and more of this, but I also don’t want to pain her. But I believe that even after she’s able to resolve it, there will be plenty more Hibiki to come.

Aikatsu Friends! – 052

My color that can’t be erased

And this week, physics lessons. On top of Mio’s struggling, I really liked everything shown about Hibiki too, really connecting her and Alicia into the web of everyone else’s relationships. There are more parallels and mirrors than I’d expect from an injection of newness, which I really appreciate. Also, this week will probably also be a bit late due to reasons. By the way, if you’re going to Sakuracon be sure to go represent Aikatsu fans to Morihoshi Sumire. She’s there for Neverland and I can’t go, but if you are make sure not to miss out. (Addition:) Katou Youichi will also be at Anime Boston! He’s the writer of all of OGkatsu! And I won’t be going to that either…

Aikatsu Friends! – 051

Hibiki is a divine mixture of Elza, Juri, and a bit of Kaede for good measure

God, this episode was fire and hot and EXCELLENT! The best, most exciting and hype way of starting off a new season in at least a year. Just when you think it can’t get any better, it does, over and over again. Now quickly! Go and watch!

There was also something requesting an actual TL note the week. If somehow you weren’t aware of it, the story referenced was Amaterasu and the cave of Ama-no-Iwato. The specific person talked about is Ame-no-Uzume, known for her rather… lascivious dance. That explains the clothes being thrown off. Aikatsu: As educational as ever.

Aikatsu Friends! – 050

Let the bells toll

A wonderful ending to a wonderful new season. As with all endings, this marks the start of a new beginning as well. Do you have people you consider true friends? Do you also think that real fights can only happen between people who care about one another? Let us all consider it as we watch the development of this pure friendship between two girls.

Virtual Aituber Nana Batch

We love you, Nanairo Nana!

We never forgot about you, Nana! We were just waiting so that we could put you with your favorite Aikatsu Navi, Coco’s episode. But now, sadly, it is time for the batch of every episode, 0-10 including two extras. The last release with subs was 7, so you can start there if you were already caught up. We also had to v2 episode 6 for a small error, but no patch. We know you’ve been Aikatsuing hard this entire time, even if we couldn’t see you, and you will always be an inspiration to us. Be well, Aikatsu Navi Nanairo Nana! Good luck, and we love you!
