Yeah I don't know what to say about this episode. It was an attack on all my senses and I have no idea how to process it. But what with the ending scene and next episode preview, shit's getting weird.The end of Gobi? Everyone acting normal? Hibiki being in serenity? A Pripara Lala's never seen? Anything could happen.
Such a chuuni way to introduce yourself.
Which Aikatsu song goes like "to the right to the left do you know do you know to the right take a chance.."
It's been stuck in my head for 2 days but I can't remember which one it was.
>>138342281
Isn't that the Brave Beats OP?
I love sword fights.
>>138342173
Yeah, it was even weirder in contextand leaving aside how Final Fairy is a massive asspull I'm more interested in what's gonna happen now that Celerapa is crumbling, like Hibiki's dream, but it sounds like a Parallel Universe to me.
>>138341592
>>138342543
Although I agree that it was a massive asspull, I think their reasoning for it is thatLaala was carrying everyone's wishes with her (represented by everyone joining their hands and giving her the final push to reach Hibiki). So, at least to me, the Final Airy represents the power of friendship and union which goes beyond Hibiki's limits (Platinum Airy).
Still an asspull though.

I just wish they had touched on that a little more, like having Laala remember the time they revived Falulu or when their friendship made Sophy break away from her shell. I don't know, I just feel like it all happened without much acknowledgement and we might be thinking too deep about it. I guess if we're right about the message then next episode should develop the idea a little further.
>>138343935
Yeah, it's the last part of Signalize.
>>138344026
I hope they do that in the next episode, but at least the staff actually made me root for Laala, just like in AD.

She deserved a better score than Juri. A still kinda newbie idol, performing an iconic song against a more experienced one that played it safe. But then again, it does not matter if Akari is gonna win anyway.
>>138351586
Why would only your choice of song dictate your score? Then anybody could pick something like Moonlight Destiny, the SLQ song from season 1, and do well. Besides, Juri did a song made for units by herself. That's what I call impressive.

>>138356599
hi ranflakes, you have a good day?
>>138351586
It really doesn't matter if she's a newbie if she's good at what she does. It's like someone who has a talent for drawing but never polished his skills professionally, and another person who doesn't have a natural talent for it but still practice it a lot.
Give the two individuals the same training and guess who'll come out on top? That's right the talented one because he'll be able to actually do something that will amaze everyone else. Because he got it.
Risappe's really good at singing, she's been doing it since she was a kid, and actually got a training from her mother. She never had any trouble pulling off a special appeal. She's good.
She can actually be better than Akari if she had started at the same year as her. Don't give the shit of -but muh hardworking Akari.
All the girls in the show are just as much hardworking as her. You can see it in the episode that Risappe was really training for that song.
The only way a person like Akari can win is in anime, because she has plot armor.
I know she's gonna win anyway, but they shouldn't have made her opponents so tough. They are clearly above her on many levels.
It's just sad to see them job so hard against her.
>>138356624
Don't ask personal questions to Ranflakes.
>>138356761
Akari's the best and there's nothing you can do about it.
>>138356762
Don't try to keep ranflakes all for yourself.
>>138356599
Ran is such a cutie.
>>138356624
It would be better if /ai/ wasn't /h/.
>>138356831
>>138356797
Not that anon, but it's a sad thing indeed, let's see how Yume's gonna turn out.
>>138356840
Butts are precious parts of the Idols, everyone should love them.
>>138353915
NO!
>>138356338
shhhh anon. Smoking is bad for you
>>138356938
Try and stop me.
>>138356900
To be objective for just one minute, let's say all of the main idols are special and skilled in their own way, whether that be singing, dancing, acting, smiling, charisma, or whatever. Then let's say they all work just as hard as each other. So what determines who wins this particular Starlight Queen Cup? As Orihime said, it's the Fever Appeal. It's poetic how this parallels some of Akari's first ordeals, and how she's turned her once greatest weakness into her greatest strength. Plus, most anyone can admit that her bond with Sena is probably stronger than most of the other idols and their top designers. Put that together, and it should be no surprise guessing how well she'll do.
On the other hand, what of day two? We have Nono, Rin, and Madoka. This is the one day where it's way harder to guess who'll win.
>>138356928
Idles must be loved whole, not just for their butts.
>>138357051
>As Orihime said, it's the Fever Appeal.
Yup, but it's a little sad how their real life popularity doesn't have an effect on the story, but it's also good how a character being super popular don't makes a mess with the story, otherwise we would have a ton of Madoka episodes.
>>138357051
I wonder what Nono will sing. I'll be disappointed if it's just solo Lucky Train, but what old song could she cover?
>>138357146Precious?
>>138357051
What's Akari's greatest strengh? Appeals? Are you fucking kidding me. Any good idle should be able to pull off appeals. One appeal in a song isn't Odayaka janai anyway. I bet Mizuki's suffering to see all the low tier idles this generation has to offer.
>>138357160
Eh, I'd rather not see both Nono and Risa steal from Mizuki after their top designer made a point of them having to shine on their own. I guess it wouldn't be that bad as long as it's a different song from Risa's in general, but there could be further choices than Precious.
>>138357184
Fever Appeals are definitely special, Mizuki herself said she's never seen anyone perform a Special A appeal. I wonder if she was including herself there or not.
>>138357184
It's actually her smile, but you're just being an ass when I was trying to be civil.
>>138357058
Of course I love the whole of them (some more than the others), but I also love their butts.
I want Mizuki to compete in the SLQ cup and take the crown from all these scrubs. Show them how a true top idle should be like.
>>138357252
Butts are the best.
>>138357248
I didn't mean to be an ass anon. It just frustrates me when people try to defend her plot armor.

Yes, I know. But in Aikatsu of all shows, you can't really say one or another person worked harder (usually, unless that person's name is Mizuki). Regardless of who wins, it probably won't be because of some objective, quantifiable measure. It's not like PriPara where you see Mirei killing herself to be the best.

You can alwayskill yourself.

Predictions on how day 2 of the SLQ Cup will play out? Will anyone between Nono, Madoka and Rin steal first place from Juri?
>>138358435
Madoka will win and steal the first place from Juri.
>>138358435
Rin probably.
Nono and Madoka unlikely.
>>138358355
Is she? Why would Madoka be the most popular?

Huh, I tried to spoiler-tag the RE part of the word as well so that the unspoiled parts would read RIGGED, but it didn't work. Please imagine it does.
>>138358435
1. Juri
2. Rin
3. Madoka
4. Risa
5. Nono
That's my prediction.
the big question in SLQ cup is: Nono will be in a better ranking than Risappe?
>>138358790
No no.
>>138358764
>>138358790
I'm still not convinced that the ranking will carry between days. In every previous cup, there were always multiple performances for the top idols.
>>138358701
Can't be helped anon, little girls just don't love Ichigo as they did before.
>>138358368
Just get out your ebipons.
>>138356831
>>138356863
>>138358790
I don't think so. Risa's seemed more serious about it so far. Nono also has to share the episode with two other main characters rather than just one so she's unlikely to get the same amount of focus as Risa did.
Maybe they'll get the exact same score and tie because muh poetry and whatnot.
>>138358839
It seems to be single-round this time. Going by episode titles, the cup ends after Akari's performance, with no further turns.
>>138358631
Must be a fake.
>>138357516
Lovely
>>138358435
Lowest rankings always go first. Everyone on day 2 will beat everyone on day 1, and day 3 will beat day 2.
>>138358978
It is real, if I recall correctly, Ichigo has never been the first place, besides the first one maybe, but I don't know if that one was made before Yurika was introduced, because after she was introduced she took the first place for like 1-2 polls.
>>138358839
Not enough time left, maybe if they had done it like the first time. First a physical test to weed out the sidles and then a couple of battle royale rounds.
>>138358984
Yeah, I think so too, but I'm unsure about days 1 and 2. Juri has seniority over Madoka and Rin and experience over Nono and Risa, not sure I'd like to see her bested by first-years. I guess either Madoka or Rin will surpass her, but not both.
As for day three, with the Luminas on it's obvious they'll take top three. Most definitely Akari > Sumire > Hinaki.
The best.
>>138359076
Are you mixing up Tristar auditions and the SLQ Cup? The Cup used to only accept the top 8 ranking idols, it was only last year that it opened to everyone.
>>138359137
You just say that because you're a pale and skinny dude.
>>138359165
Fuck, you're right. Then, it still would have been a good idea to get rid of the sidles in a pre-round. I wanted to see all of Akari Gen against each other in the same stage.
>>138356831

Nothing anyone says can convince me that Starlight Queen isn't a pity award for side characters/not the MC. I'll be genuinely shocked if Akari wins.
>>138360812
>>138360843
Even as the so-called best idol Mizuki never really did anything super amazing that'd make the viewer sit back and think "wow, she really is the top idol".
>>138360923
>four Special Appeals in a single performance when the limit was thought to be three and it was already exclusive to her
>>138360923
Everything she did was that. I also have quite a long list of reasons why Otome deserved to be the next Queen.
>>138360812
Nothing anyone can say can convince me that Starlight Queen is an award that has any meaning whatsoever
>>138361009
I'm happy both members of PPP became SLQ.
>>138361009
>Nothing anyone can say can convince me that Aikatsu is an anime that has any meaning whatsoever
>>138360843
I mean anon isn't wrong. Mizuki may have been top idol but she wasn't the MC and being Starlight Queen means nothing when you're the best idol period.
>>138361075
Why is that censored?
>>138360923
Mizuki was the Ricardo Martinez of aidles. Ichigo was the Takamura. From there Akari = Ippo, Sumire = Miyata, Juri = Sendou, Rin = Idagaki, Yurika = Mashiba and the rest just sort of falls into place when you think about it.
>>138360997
>that'd make the viewer sit back and think "wow, she really is the top idol"
It was impressive in-universe, but not to anyone watching the show. She also didn't have much of a presence for the top idol. You never feel that Mizuki is some cool untouchable character, you just get a bunch of people telling you she is. Starlight Queen was just another way to make her seem impressive.
So I will stand by my assessment that it's a pity award meant for characters that aren't the MC.
>>138361305
I dunno, she wore a lot of suits, that's pretty cool
>>138361305
Oh I should make it clear I don't mean it's a pity award in the show itself. I mean in meta terms.
>>138361305
I suppose you're entitled to think that. This is the exact moment I came to love and respect Mizuki.
So I guess I'll be doing aspace guitarBD encode (and all the other PR performances on there) when my exams are over later this week.
Looks like it might be telecined with a weird pattern though so that's fun.

>>138357750
I HATE IT.
>>138362612
What makes you think Laala is the center of Solami Smile? Just because she's the main character it doesn't mean that she's the center in-universe, if anything, Mirei's more like a leader figure to Solami Smile, and Shion is her foil, while Sophie and Reona arelophie.
>>138362851
Why is she crying?
>>138362924
The fact that she is almost always literally standing in the center.
Don't you dare start arguing that the center of an idol group doesn't have to literally stand in the center most of the time, ain't nobody got the time for metatheoretical idol studies 201
>>138363104
>The fact that she is almost always literally standing in the center.
Fair enough, then please explain how Laala and Shion are foils when they hardly interact, unlike Shion with Mirei and Doroshi with Laala, both pairs have complete episodes dedicated to them, same withlophie.
>>138363173
Pripara cares nothing for the rules and laws of idles and wishes to see the world burn

Yes, that's why Shion and Laala aren't foils.
