Sub of episode 171 of Aikatsu just came out, and Madoka just came out declaring her love of Rin.

>Madoka just came out declaring her love of Rin.
I'm pretty sure that was because of the fact that she made a cake for her.

Anyone doing these? I'm interested in these, especially the colored ones (sans PriPara). I need a reason to stop doing Aikatsu doujinshi for a while, and this may be it.
Aikatsu Stars! officially revealed, Akari Generation cut short.
http://nlab.itmedia.co.jp/nl/articles/1602/22/news067.html
To be honest, Akari Gen clung too much on the first generation of characters, like a crutch in a some way. A lot of people, including me still prefer the original cast and seeing them teased from time to time isn't helping too much. It's like the game's backstory is more interesting than the game's current story. This potential reboot is gonna fix all that — Start new, start fresh.
And this.
>>1990123
Great news!
Hopefully we'll get more of this girl here as well.
Oh, Sora, you freaking fetishist
>>1990124
5 ... one will not be happy ...
personally, I'm glad the news, I hope everything is more focused and less chaotic
>>1990290
Here's another interesting news: Apparently the new cast of characters are gonna be voiced by none other than Soleil. The studio is probably avoiding to not alienate the fans too much by assigning the VAs of Ichigo, Aoi and Ran to voice the new girls.
Which is a good thing because, well, Aoi... and Ran...
>>1984002
Huh, the episode was romantic as hell. I didn't expect this.
>>1987519
Thanks, anon.
Aikatsu Stars! details announced from a live stream a few hours ago, however you can still watch it here: https://youtu.be/5aPTcytKtSA
Skip to 9:40 if you want to see the first animated trailer. VA info after that.
Soleil's VAs are in the anime (pic related), but only as supporting roles. The new MC Nijiro Yume is voiced by a new talent, I think. It's amusing Ichigo and Aoi VAs switched roles (cool, cute) while Ran's VA retained her sexy role/type.
>>1994148
Nijino*
Will there be any new boys in STARS? Please tell me that won't happen. Aikatsu went into disaster because of that starting from S3.
Sorry for that. Please enjoy this GIF.Best unit.
It's like they want RanAo to be canon.
>>1994278
The secret message of this scene is that they secretly support it but they need to keep it on the down low since idols aren't supposed to fall in love.
More love for Ichigo and Aoi.
It's still my favorite couple, on par with NanoFate.

>>1998097
Oh you beautiful bastards, thanks a lot.
I think Yoban has improved a bit.
Can someone explain this show to me? Is it worth watching for a new yuri show?
>>1998672
It's about idols and it depends on what you'd consider worth it.
Watch an episode and see if you like it.
>>1998672
Basically your typical idol anime for young girls that involves lots of cute friendship, stylish outfits and weekly CG singoffs of usually the same song three weeks in a row. The subtext gets pretty heavy at times, particularly during the first season, and they hardly ever touch on het romance (the few times they do it's always a misunderstanding involving cats).
Also freaking Aoi.
If you're new to this thing, it's probably better to take it a few eps at a time rather than marathon it.
>>1998703
Is Aoi everyones favorite?
>>1998708
*ahem*
>>1998672
It's an Idol Anime aimed at the shoujo demographics but Xtreme'd up for kids (to promote their carddass game).
Instead of putting on clothes, the girls scan cards on a magical machine and then run through it for a instant dress up.
The performances are also more flashy then the ordinary performances you would see in Idol shows. Instead of just dancing to stage lighting and smoke, hard light projects of ribbons, cookies and other cute things fly around our Idols and they literally shoot a hologram arrow of love at the crowd.
>>1998708
What makes you think so.

Is this the diorama version of those On and On MADs on NicoNico?

I'm working on something, and how do you translate Ichigo's snicker "フフっヒ!"?

Ugh, I don't even know English that well.
>>2000575
This doujin is a bit sad but cute. My heart.
That year was tough for Aoi.
>>2002273
I pay a lot for that pancake.
Do you know what this anime needs? More people to translate doujinshi. As of right now, me and my comrades are the only active group who translates Aikatsu stuff. We can't do this alone all the time.
Also this: http://lazylily.moe/art-book-nnnnn-aikatsu-is-out/
>>2002273
Whoa, that pancake is a work of art!
For those who haven't already read/heard there is no new episode this week, but next week two new episodes will air!
>>2006780
>there is no new episode this week
?
>>2006786
>>there is no new episode this week
Last week one of the subbers wrote that, but it appears either that person had a faulty source, or mis-translated something. There probably would have been a higher energy carry over if they had two episodes next week, but this is more suspenseful, and gives us our weekly Aikatsu fix.
>>2007186
It would make sense the final is a two-episode special (though I never encountered this type of thing outside shounen fightan anime).I'm sorta expecting Sumire to win the Starlight Queen Cup, to make things unpredictable.
>>1999551
Ichigo sure has changed a bit.
>>1999181
Just seeing this. And god, even on that promo stuff this show is gay.
I watched the first season last year. Maybe I need to get back to this one day. If only the episode "quality" wouldn't fluctuate that much. Some episode feel so much better and more fun that others.
Please refer to >>1996945

IchiMizu lewd
Anyone else shocked by what happened at the end of the last episode? (176)Falling on her butt when going to execute the special!When it happened I found it strange, and it took me a minute to register what had just happened, why, and its impact.
>>2013668
I was genuinely shocked, but I was more shocked Aikatsu pulled something unpredictable for once. I do want Sumire to be SLQ, but it will take another plot twist for it to happen. Akari deserves the win, obviously, but the anime will end in a predictable note.
>>2013600
I don't understand the pairing. But man, it pleases me to see another good Aikatsu doujin. I'm lucky it's popular.
>>2013966
The movie is a thinly-veiled IchiMizu story. And of course the senpai-kouhai romances are kinda neat.
What a heartwarming episode, you should watch it.
>>2014922
I think IchiMizu has been relatively popular since S1. I need to read/watch more yuri.
Episode 177 is an enjoyable episode, but if I take into consideration the past seasons, the anime played it safe. Namco cutting off S4 was a major blow to Nono and Risa's development. Personally they didn't even deserve to be in the Queen Cup given at how small their accomplishments were. Watching Nono and Risa ending up in the top 5 was silly.
>>2015484
That's true but I forgive them everything. The episode made me happy. I'm a bit sad but happy. Aikatsu should be fun no matter what.
Any bored translator around? I have a lewd AkaSumi doujinshi lying around, but we need a translator to, well, translate it.
Pic related.

While the series will end with episode 178 there will be one lastmoviebefore its all over...
The OG Aikatsu! has finally ended. The final moments with Ichigo and Akari is a fitting closure for an anime about becoming the best idol for everyone.
LEZU idol confirmed for Stars.
>Yozora
>Refreshing and honest, a naturally beautiful idol. She loves cute things, SPECIALLY cute girls.
>>2021165
So... She's probably attracted to Yuzu, a cute girl... Who happens to be voiced by Tadokoro Asuza, VA of Aoi. I like where this is going.
>>2021165
Everyone loves cute girls though.
I'm surprised, but 178 subs got released pretty quickly.
http://www.nyaa.se/?page=download&tid=798926
http://www.nyaa.se/?page=download&tid=798926
So is Stars going to be a completely new plot with new characters? I'm like 150 episodes behind in the original and was wondering if it would be better to just pick it back up with this.
Interested in one of these?

When I saw they had amale headmasterI was annoyed, but I let it pass given that I don't expecthim to be of much significanceespecially given that the main girl has a rock'n hot female teacher. However, then theythrow the stupid boy's school next storecrap in the very first episode. If they try to pushhet crap on usI think I'll drop the show even though I was a long term original Aikatsu anime watcher (having watched all the original series).
After the first episode how do you think the s4 girls will play out. Will they bespectacular idols who are what they appear like the original Aikatsu idols, or will theyhave a secret personality (where they are opposite or big deviations of their stage personalities)?

Goddamn these spoilers are completely unnecessary and annoying as hell.
Stars is a new show, of course it's different.
Hinaki caught Sumire and Akari in bed together.
Did they change the CGI team for Stars! ?
Seems they've regressed a bit. Not S1 QUALITY, but def. not up to S4's standards...
these were typeset by /a/ some are yuri but it also has some hetero-ish comics
https://mega.nz/#!2EQRzLZB!j_ZHLOu4x42kqiYVdwi6jAazX77kex_rENtYR0ccg2I
>>2030449
I think it's more to do with the character designs being different in this series.
Anyone interested in typesetting this doujinshi? The script is 100% done and I can't TS it right now because I'm helping8ch/u/with their KnM doujinshi.
I require an experienced TS'er though. I'm too busy and don't have the time to teach you the proper basics.
>>2030449
Yes.
>>2030449
Yep. Sunrise in-house CG team is in charge of them now. Samurai Pictures still help them, only the characters model though. As you can see, new team kinda suck with motion and lighting, and unlike previous Aikatsu, the chances of new team improving as the show goes on is almost nil.
>>2030544
>One team could improve
>But the new one can't!!
What? People generally get better at what they do, no matter what. Once the first hurdles are taken, things get improved upon.
>>2030544
Don't they own the assets though? Why aren't they using them to improve the new team's CGI models? It's not they can use these assets outside Aikatsu. Unless I'm missing something.
>>2030560
Sadly it doesn't work like that. Aikatsu improving their CG was actually a miracle itself. These things rarely happen.
Sunrise's team also have been around for some time, but they have never shown any sign of improvement. Their work on non-living things were pretty bad, and making CG for human characters are even harder than things like cars and robots. There are many reasons why Sunrise outsourced the CG for Akito to Orange instead of letting their team do it. And one of the reason is because their own team suck.
>>2030562
By assets do you mean Aikatsu old CG data? Like using old CG as base for Stars CG? Well in-theory, they can use it. Whether they actually can apply them or not are unknown though.

Girls are working on their self-produce bit by checking out various classes in the school (sorta equivalent to Types in OG Aikatsu). Bore-ha—Koharu dropped her glasses, got picked up by Yozora. Yozora immediately noticed Koharu's rather beautiful skin, and a made compliment. This made Koharu literally creamed her panties. On a side note, Yozora likes cute girls, so she is immediately attracted to Koharu. The best part is:Koharu decided to go join Yozora's class.
Why is Rola a best, /u/?
So, purple hair Hanayo basically
I take it back, Ako is the best girl.
And to think I was going to dismiss Aikatsu Stars as hetshit.
>>2031095
Wasn't there that guy who was the groundskeeper and in a boyband in the original? Nothing ever happened with him, did it?
>>2031121
He was the source of a jumpscare in the very first few episodes, but yes, nothing happened with him.
Same could be said with that one designer that makes Akari's clothes.
>>2031121
are you sure? they even holding hand
Yozora is too gay.

You can go back under your bridge troll. The main character declared she had no interest in m4, and is only interested in the girls of s4. M4 should be a non factor, and the men/boys in Aikatsu will remain irrelevant like always.
