Fuck off Mizuki you were never a protagonist.
>>139719203
Wait until Aikatsu Zero which will chronicle Mizuki's rise to fame until her first big concert at Starrise Stadium where she notices a certain soft-shelled turtle in the audience...
>>139719318
Then Aikatsu -1 which follows Masquerade's establisment of modern Aikatsu.
>>139719362
My favorite part about it is that it airs right before Aikatsu! Plus+, a spinoff starring Noelle and the DreAcas.
>>139719554
Isn't that Aikatsu Dream?
>>139719554
Then King of Aikatsu, in which Raichi follows in his sister's footsteps to become top idol.

Speaking of Pripara subs, has anyone ever posed/be willing to post their re-timed Google translate subs to the raws?
If not I'll do it myself whenever I get around to it.
Still have seven open squares on the joint coloring project. Physical coloring is preferred, but digital is fine if you don't have access otherwise. If you're going to do a digital coloring, please put effort into it. I don't want to reject squares, but you shouldn't submit point and click fill square. Try different brushes and techniques, and make something fun and unique!

As long as it includes the name Aikatsu, nothing it does will ever surpass the first season of Aikatsu

I can't even lust after them when they aren't even half as sexual as the likes of Ran, Sumire, the potatoes and so on.
>>139732611
>Do you prefer PriPara to Pretty Rhythm?
I prefer both. PR was a masterpiece and very difficult to top, and PP went in a completely different direction anyways.
Aikatsu was great and cute and all but not a masterpiece like PR. Stars could definitely end up being better at what Aikatsu did.
Also, being the first doesn't mean it's the best. I'm sure that way of thinking is considered fallacious.

I quite liked it. It's something different.
>>139737290
She didn't actually remember performing. I wonder how this is going to go.
I'm calling that Roller can't do appeals
So basically the same Aikatsu but with new characters, a boy which will probably fall off the edge of the planet by the end of the first season, and do I detect the presence of some plot?

>>139737033
More like in my shoujo anime. I usually like it but not in Aikatsu.

>>139737437
>object
She loves cute girls, remember?
>>139737457
I didn't hate it, but did we watch the same thing?
Random musings for those who can't waitLet's see here. The beginning, two things I noted. One, The Excitement Reader System has become the most Gaudy thing I've ever seen. Doesn't it hurt their head being that big?!
Second, Hime is not really into Choreography. The stage did some exciting stuff, and Hime's Aura was Odayaka Ja Nai. Still it gave me a less than favorable impression. The CG Leveled up in general though!Koharu is a good girl and Yume is a cute. She does have a little spunk, but I REALLY need context as to what the fuck she was doing before the Commercial Break.Also according to the Kami-sama No Galge, she is totally on route for that dude. That was a pretty blatantly obvious thingJohnny's Replacement is... Alright. By herself in another Dimension she'd be best girl right away. Here, she's just pretty much putting Johnny and Tiara together. Excellent combo, but too obvious.Stage Dress Set up! BIG Improvement, much more Dynamic! I really liked it.Yume's Performance: Overall, better than Hime's Yume has a little spirit in the song. I was also weirded out by how Yume's Aura and stage mod powers rivaled Hime's there. A little excessive, and she pulled herself a SPECIAL APPEAL. Then pulled the most awesome way to get yourself noticed! I started laughing, the fuck I am. I did however hear "Is that Really a First Year?" I hope it wasn't because she pretty much pulled an Ichigo, but we'll see.The Ending: You can (not) call it Aikatsu style. We've gone to Pretty Rhythm levels of WUBING. The song itself was fine, it was just not what you'd expect from an Aikatsu ending.
Final Verdict: Let's see how it goes, it made no critical errors, but Yume might be a little too OP,Unless of course, she went beyond her limits due to some circumstance and won't go back to that level for a while.
>>139737457
Unfortunately, the episode wasn't that comfy and Aikatsu should be comfy.
Also the girls are nowhere as cute as Ichigo and Aoi.
Yume is really boring and I already hate her megane friend.
gay
Did this one appear yet?
>>139737638
Glasses girl is a sexy-type isn't she?
She'll lose the glasses on stage and power up to be a dominatrix or some shit. She's Sophie, add a red flash and you're set.
>>139737611
I found it pretty comfy. To each their own, though.
>>139737585
>I REALLY need context as to what the fuck she was doing before the Commercial Break.
She climbed on top of a tree to shout at Hime and get noticed by her, but the S4 left by car in the meantime.
Hime a cute.

I agree. In PR. Or Shugo Chara. Not in a show called Aikatsu though. They really should have gone with AiAra or something.

I'll reserve full judgement until subs I guess but for now I'm just really not feeling it. It could be just because it's all new but something just seems really off. The CG especially, as visually good as it looks it's like there's something weird going on with the faces and that's really distracting
>>139739351
Yeah, I noticed that with the CG too. Yume's twintails also looked really weird, although I'm not a fan of how they look in 2D either. The CG will probably get better like it has before, they're probably just getting used to the new style.
Next we'll have boy performances.
Then boy subplots and relationships.
Then boy merchandise.

Pretty much.
Man, Shugo Chara was amazing.

They'd perfected it with Aikatsu but now they have to start again with a new art style, just not from square 1.
I'm going to miss this art so much. It was perfect. The BD covers always looked gorgeous with it.

Perfect. That's exactly what Aikatsu needed. Now I'm happy.
This is Aikatsu just in name.
I wouldn't mind all the things Stars is if it were another series. But this is simply not Aikatsu.
>>139739468
Yeah hopefully it won't take them too long to fix all the issues up.
>>139739544
Yeah it's really a pity that they went and changed the art style so much, I would've been okay if they just rebooted the franchise but at least kept that the same.
