So were you but you don't see me bitching.

Good, good.

It's been a slow couple of days, hasn't it Newspostanon?

[Distant squeaky Nao voices]

I don't feel safe knowing this

No there aren't.

Rin is my wife.

>go on a trip
>draw idols in your trip photos
I love it

Hello

I want a Cherry.

can i have sex with your wife

Hi.

...

How come Chieri is so sexual? Look at her clothes. Damn.

There's girls everywhere, causing terrors in my head and errors in my bread.

Every day until you come back.

For me

No, sorry.
*cuteposition
I don't know what you're talking about, good bye.

You better feast on the little slut.

Huh. That's actually a really neat idea, never thought of doing anything like this. I can fuse both of my digital photography and digital art hoobies into one piece this way.

Youre not going anywhere

Why would you be scared of girls and not about the skeleton inside you

Mio is a classy lady.

Go for it.
I'm sure it would be fun.

ayy mio guess what time it is

What happens in Vegas, Mio baby.

Mio, you get hugs.

why is there a piece of shit in the passenger seat?

...

Girlfriend.

>He can't clear the EX objectives

When will Derestage be released for the international market? It's not like Idol franchises are inherently doomed to failure over here. Sure, there's stuff like WUG (released on CR), Omega Quintet (flopped) and Super Sonico (dubbed by a erocosplayer but not well-known) but Idolm@ster is popular enough to achieve Love Live-level popularity or even better.

Got a problem with that you bitch? Fuck you

selfies with Koume

Selfies with Ryo!

I want to marry Ryo and adopt Koume.

I can barely pass the 250k point mission.

...

Karen is my lovely wife.

MVs need more props.

>but Idolm@ster is popular enough to achieve Love Live-level popularity or even better.
Not by a long shot.

Koume please help other l@lis with their homework.

Cute delusions are still delusions.

Please don't help Sachiko.

like sachikong would need any help

Hopefully the next couple of MVs include them.

Mary needs help

Ok, I'll put her out of her misery.

Kanade does not look happy there.

>Not by a long shot.
In all seriousness, the potential is damn well there.

Love Live is actually one of the weaker idol franchises out there in terms of content that it offers. But the reason why it was so successful was because of the very aggressive and widescale marketing that it did. In theory, any of the existing idolshit franchises could be kicked up to LL tier popularity as long as their publishers want to spend the effort in doing it. It's not like they have less to offer than what LL has. Be it T7S, Ensemble Stars or whatnot.

IM@S is already doing very well on the Asian market. And as it's track record shows, Scamco isn't really that interested in taking IM@S outside Asia. And hell, I don't mind it staying that way.

And Sunshine isn't exactly doing so hot either. Most LLfags just stick to Muse for the most part. I'd say the LL craze is dying sooner or later.

If anything, I'd say BanG Dream is the next big world wide thing. It already has the key players that made LL big involved (Kadokawa, Bushiroad, Lantis, Scamco). It has an upcoming Deresute clone mobage (That introduces more bands) and an anime next year as well. Of course, It's not really Idolshit and more of Bandshit, but if K-ON!! made it big with barely any Band playing, what more of a similar franchise where the focus is actually on band playing?

It also has Aimi and Hasshi playing characters playing their respective forte instruments as the "main" band so how can I hate it.

Can someone explain this meme

Tripfags being attwhores, report and ignore. Don't reply to them

>It has an upcoming Deresute clone mobage

Wait shit, really?

>BanG Dream deresute clone
what?

I hope you like Guitar Aidoru: World Tour: We're Totally not Deresute because we have Live2D portraits!

>If anything, I'd say BanG Dream is the next big world wide thing.
BanG Dream fans are mostly people who go into it for those few VAs (keep in mind the other bands added for the game aren't even voiced) and those people are a very small minority outside Japan.

>Aimi and Hasshi playing characters
Wait really? I need a sample

What can I do with dupe SRs in Million Live? I've gotten 2 of them in this event and I have 2 extra vamp Naos.

...

Most Livers didn't really know about Love Live until the 2013 anime and SIF. People tend to forget that Love Live was already a thing as early as 2010.

Likewise, BanG Dream only enjoys modest popularity right now. However, it has an upcoming Rhythm game and anime. The very same things that made LL explode in the first place. Hell, it's practically the same corporate team handling it. The only difference this time is that it's Xebec making the anime rather than Sunrise.

When does BanG Dream mobage start? I want to get in early since it'll be the next fun idol mobage. Hopefully they don't pull a T7S when it comes to jewels though. That's what made me drop the game the very first day I played and learned about it.

>Xebec
picked up

>Live2D

Absolutely disgusting.

It's not that simple. A shit ton of things are now getting anime and rhythm games. Love Live got these out before any of the competition did. School Idol Festival came out in 2013 when F2P rhythm games with the cashgrab gacha aspect weren't common when they are now.
But with all the competition now, unless the BanG Dream game can provide something better than every other offering, including Deresute, it'll just be one more game added to the pile.

Hey Yuriko.

Live2d still looks like those porn flash games you used to see on newgrounds back in the day. It's shinier now, but it still has that weird uncanniness to it.

BanG Dream has a definitive niche that makes it stand out though from the rest. They're bands. From what we've seen so far, a lot of BanG Dream's focus is on the bands rather than the individuals. So they have a battle of the bands sort of feel to it.

Add the anime to that which will definitely be marketed like hell considering the companies backing it and you have a serious contender.

They're good awakening fuel for the actually worthwhile cards.

Granted you have to actually draw (trade, or pay) for those first.

By absolutely disgusting you mean Nina?

I hope it's shit. If there's a thing I don't need in my life right now is another mobage.

>They're bands.
SBR is too.

Will play

SBR is some weird ass Magical Girl Furry Band hybrid series. Also, Sanrio doesn't have as much influence as the bigger companies outside anything Hello Kitty.

A shame, I found the anime and game to be pretty fun. Wish it was more popular.

a.uguu.se/0XBCl178jKUo.mp3

Random Pyxis song that I like. Not really, it's the one with the PV and probably the one they put the most effort into given the other songs save Tokimeki Sensation.

Okay.

LLSS probably will never do as well as the first iteration but judging by the sales it'll remain a relatively popular series.

As cool as that would be, I doubt BanG_Dream will reach worldwide popularity. SB69 came along and did probably all of that but it's still unheard of outside Japan. It's possible they'll go for the 'throw everything at you at once' approach taken by WUG in which case it's doubtful everything will stick around long enough to be popular.

I think it's a very big assumption you're making that the band factor will help propel it above the current giants.
In any case, it's probably too early to tell how it'll go. Game won't even be out for a while. First has to gain more popularity in Japan before they can start thinking about worldwide.

Also, when it comes to the game side, marketing isn't everything. School Idol Festival was entirely left to its publisher Bushiroad who didn't market it that hard at all and developer KLab who fucked up repeatedly, while Kadokawa and Scamco subsidiaries focused on other parts.
In comparison, both Scamco and Cygames are pushing Deresute as hard as they can.
And yet SIF is the only one of this kind that got a worldwide release and was actually a success.

>most
I don't know about 'the most' but I got into BanG_Dream by searching up Fuwa Fuwa Time only to get linked to Poppin Party's cover of Fuwa Fuwa Time. Then like Love Live, I found the one song that got me hooked (Starbeat~hoshi no kodou) and stuck around.

Aimin plays the Lead Guitarist and Hasshy, the drummer.

That do those Magical Girl Furries do? They're in a band.

I can never trust most Asian pictures because you never know if it's a guy.
That's a guy, isn't it?

>while Kadokawa and Scamco subsidiaries focused on other parts.

That's kind of the point of a joint business operation. Even if it's no secret that Klab was a massive fuckup, Scamco and Kadokawa did their parts quite well. Media encroachment was going along finely. And that's why people still played SIF as much as a flaming heap it's management was. It's still very much related to the other sections to the franchise that Scamco and Kadokawa did well in selling to people.

>In comparison, both Scamco and Cygames are pushing Deresute as hard as they can and yet SIF is the only one of this kind that got a worldwide release and was actually a success.

In regards to im@s, Scamco just doesn't seem to be interested in taking im@s outside Asia for the time being. In the first place, a world market doesn't seem to be in their immediate interest for im@s, or Deresute for that matter.

The only time they bothered with an english release for im@s is Shiny Festa. And if anything, reviews of the game itself were pretty nice. The main complaint however, was it's bullshit price and that massively hurt it's success.

Spring 2017.

T7s is getting slightly better now with the missions. You can roughly get about 100 coins per week (presuming you play 50 times) along with the release of a new set of cards which will give you about 1000 coins.

Yes. It's the guy who voices Uzuki.

>You can roughly get about 100 coins per week (presuming you play 50 times) along with the release of a new set of cards which will give you about 1000 coins.
I don't know anything about T7S, but does this mean you get a new set of cards only once in 10 weeks?

Fuck off

Go on Amazon and order some IQ points.

Presuming you do the missions every week yes you can pull every 10 weeks but only in the discounted lottery. Normally the first pull is 5000 coins.

Casting water spells together!
