Man. I think that was a perfect episode. The little things like Mahiru and Yozora only reading each other's articles in the magazines, Ako carefully mentioning that they'll be seen as a weak S4 if nobody beats the previous heads, showing a rival group to the ganguro girls who support Yozora. And yes, it's funny, she broke all the tiles the previous night in preparation and the other girls knew she would (I honestly think that's nice awareness on the part of the creators).

But the competition was every bit worth the buildup. These two, as sisters, have had the longest rivalry of all, with Mahiru's background being unable to beat Onee-chan in anything and her goal being to bring her down. She made a name for herself with her Stylish Girls Lesson as being unique, and is even the one called "Nee-san" now. Two things of note happened during her performance. Everyone must have noticed her new aura, but the camerawork also changed to put particular focus on her legs during a difficult part, as walking is the most important skill for a model.

Yozora sung Mirai Transit, a song about moving on towards the future and leaving behind a lesson. Mahiru's TSU-BO-MI is about breaking free from an oppressive snow and blooming for yourself. And Summer Tears Diary is about parting but staying strong and not crying. All of it was for this moment as Yozora leaves for Ital—France. Mahiru realizing it just as Yozora finishes is what made it really tragic. But do you remember? Yozora actually hinted at this in episode 31, and we weren't sure if she meant graduation or something else. I actually forgot up until the exact moment she said it. Things are really going to change now.

In the end, I'm just so happy that Mahiru was able to win. Inheriting Yozora's brand Romance Kiss was something only she could do, and I can't wait to see how she grows and what new dreams she'll find.

Also I read last thread. Screw you if you think S4 didn't all try their hardest.

Did they broadcast episode 51 or what? I see screenshots in the tag.

>>154374292
I think they showed the S2 PV last night.

So it's fine if Hime goes undefeated now, right? Mahiru carried the first-years.

It's likely Hime will go undefeated since Elsa is trying to recruit her in the preview. It looks like Elsa trying to get Hime into her school is actually just a way of getting back at Hime. I guess that's better than Yume being super-ultra special.

>>154374815
No, I want Lily to beat her (and then collapse afterwards).

>>154374952
>Elsa trying to get Yume into her school

>>154374996
Accept now that they're not going to let her set the highest score at the beginning of a two-parter. It'll already be much if they let her keep a higher score than both Rola and Yume before Hime performs.

>>154375080
Hime is already going last. There's nothing wrong with Lily setting the highest score when the preview shows her and Rola going next episode, implying Yume is second to last.

>>154375117
That's what I said, we already know the order of all four of them.

That said, if Rola surpasses Lily next episode, it'll be Pokémon XY&Z38-tier of series-ruining to me.

>>154375080
Hime is performing last, there is no way she loses. Specially since now we know she was Elsa's real target.

>ITT: Canon
well I guess they had to do SOMETHING to make the episode not boring as fuck

>>154375194
Oh, I see what you're saying now. But there's nothing binding them to not shake up "traditional" progression. I think two weeks from now there will be two separate conflicts: Yume against Rola's score, and Hime against Lily's score.

No matter who wins, one side is gonna be super butthurt about it, and I'm gonna laugh.

>>154375237
I hope so. If they frame it as Yume vs Hime instead, there is unfortunately a good chance that Yume will beat Lily's score

>>154375263
>All the Lily fags whining about getting cucked
I'm ready for that

The preview for next season is actually making me excited. It probably won't last, but they seem to be playing off Elsa as an actual antagonist and the Diana Hikasa voice is perfect.

>>154375299
Lily is dating Hime?

>>154375337
I'm ready to see Elsa get Bell's Prism Live'd halfway through the season.

Does it look better than an upscaled DS already?

GOOD.

Anything that's not a repeat of Tiekatsu is probably a step up.

Yozora clearly threw the match on purpose. Notice how she doesn't even get a proper aura.

>>154375422
If you can show her doing worse than any previous performance she's held, you'd have a point. The onus of proof is on you. Find an image where Yozora had a better aura than today.

The S4 is so OP and what Yozora said was so well timed that it was quite hard to believe she actually went all out and losing wasn't part of her keikaku, but her performance was awesome indeed..

>>154375603
I don't see how the result would have affected her announcement whatsoever.

>>154375643
It does, the whole thing felt like a performance or a stage act.

>>154375603
That's the killer there.

Even if she actually went all out it doesn't feel like it because everything she did afterwards was based around Mahiru winning for maximum emotional impact.

No, it didn't. Some people just don't like Mahiru for some reason. We had hints that Yozora would leave four whole months ago.

>>154375799
I don't see why are you bringing up liking or not liking Mahiru when no one has ever mentioned that.

>>154375799
Yes, it did, the whole emotional value of the scene would have been way different if Mahiru would have lost, the fact how you can't see this simple thing is astonishing.

>Some people just don't like Mahiru for some reason.
What has to do with anything? I like Mahiru but the whole thing still felt staged as fuck.

If you meant in this brand-new thread, then you're right. If you meant in terms of the general sentiment that has been in these threads, then you're not.

>>154375851
I was a different person than the one you first replied to and I only disagree with the people saying they think it was fake. It would have been sad either way, but if Mahiru had lost it would have been soul-crushingly depressing. When Ichigo lost, she was the one who left. Now imagine if Mizuki had been the one to leave the country, not even giving her a chance to beat her.

>>154375909
>but if Mahiru had lost it would have been soul-crushingly depressing. When Ichigo lost, she was the one who left. Now imagine if Mizuki had been the one to leave the country, not even giving her a chance to beat her.
So you are admitting than the whole emotional value and more of the scene would have changed completely had Yozora won? I'm glad you agree with that's anon assessment.

>the new PV for the game shows off Lily's STAR Premium Rare dress, which Yume dosn't have
Why are people still thinking Lily won't be the new S4?

>>154375909
>It would have been sad either way, but if Mahiru had lost it would have been soul-crushingly depressing.
Indeed, it would have been horrible and the whole thing of being the new face of Romantic Kiss would feel like "Take this and stop crying loser" so it still felt like Yozora expected to lose or something like that.

>>154375969
People already know that, what they're discussing is whatever Lily is capable of defeating Hime or not.

>>154375969
>Why are people still thinking Lily won't be the new S4?
That's how lowly people think of Stars writing.

Still, the biggest crux of the argument is if Lily will beat Hime or will get a pity S4.

Also, Rola vs Yume argument too.

Card game PV info:
>new cards above Premium Rare: Star Premium Rare
>Perfect Queen, Gothic Victoria and Kirara's brand have the first SPRs
>other new brands coming in the future

Mahiru winning solves one major problem of having S4 composed of only losers

>>154376022
Oh piss off. If people really didn't like the writing of Stars, we wouldn't be arguing about it.

>>154376054
As expected, the powercreep begins once again.

>>154376078
B-But I like it.

>>154376022
I'm convinced Yume and Rola will TIE.

>>154376074
>Who is Yuzu

>>154376078
If people liked the writing of Stars we wouldn't have this argument because things would actually be as foreshadowing and build-up implied. Not about what would be the most unexpected to make nerds upset like so many people in these threads seemingly so much want it to be instead.

>>154376112
Best girl, but she doesn't count since she was already part of S4.

>>154376161
Yuzu is a double winner. That means she's twice as awesome.

>>154376112
She's not new, doesn't count.

Not surprising considering how they added them at the last minute just because they thought it would be cool. Wouldn't surprise me if they thought everything else needed as S1 went along and after they were sure M4 actually were a hit instead of a miss.

Is Yoko Hikasa the perfect "smug, high-class oujo" VA?

Does it really matter though? We all know Yume is going to win anyway.

>>154376312
If Yume is going to win why does Lily have the Star Premium Rare?

>>154376295
That's not exactly right. They wanted to include boys somehow and eventually reached the decision of making M4. Also you severely underestimate the anime making process if you think they didn't have clear rules for M4 succession from the start.

>>154376312
>>154376330
This is why trying to predict the end of the current season based on incomplete and misleading evidence for next season is silly.

>EVERYTHING will be mine!
What the fuck, Elsa?

>>154376312
The only way Yume is going to beat Lily is if she brings up those Rainbow Roids again. Then again even with Rainbow Roid I don't think it will be enough to beat Lily

>>154376362
>Oh no how dare people speculate and have discussions and arguments!

>>154376424
>based on incomplete and misleading evidence
Hurr durr. The whole "Elza wants Yume! No wait, she wants Hime!" is proof enough that you're being played with.

>Elsa doesn't use watakushi

>>154376447

>>154376442
Eh, in her introduction phrase Elsa literally says she is going to "STEAL EVERYTHING".

She's already stolen my heart. Or my dick. I can't really tell anymore.

>>154376508
Am I the only little girl here???

>>154375709
>>154375603

It's anime though. Things like this can happen, despite the fact that if they happened in real life it would seem far too perfect to be not planned.

I also think Yozora loves her sister far too much to gift her a win like that.

>>154376545
I'm a little girl with a feminine penis.

>>154376636
>I also think Yozora loves her sister far too much to gift her a win like that.
Funny because you can use that very same argument the other way.

>>154376658
You could, if this wasn't an idol anime where every competition means everything, especially this one, and S4 specifically spent many of their tea parties talking about beating everyone else during the Selection.

>>154376102
>scoring system expressed in hundreds of thousands
I almost want to see them tie for the sheer absurdity of it now.

>>154376715
This will be the best solution to keep their competition meme going

>>154376658
Gifting your siblings wins so they think they beat you is a lesser love. Going all out against them so that when they finally do beat you, they've actually surpassed you is real love. You might have to pull a few punches along the way, but when that final battle comes along it's a disservice to both of you if you hold back in any way.

Reminder that Lily already did the huge stage-enveloping aura back in the episode where she created Gothic Victoria. She'll kill it next week.

>>154376715
I legit thought Yozora and Mahiru would tie.

Still, something I do like here, is that the S4 selection is not just the performance, but doing stuff related to their career choice too. It gives a much more wider view and feels more fair as well.

Since Yume's entire goal is to make it into S4, there's no way she will since having that happen in the first season would be pointless. Lilly will get second place because there's no way anyone is beating Hime.

>>154377903
Why are you so sure Lily won't beat Hime? If you wouldn't mind, base it off of what each of them has done, not off knowing which episode they'll perform.

>>154377903
S4 is already gonna become irrelevant next season anyway with all the Boat Dreca drama that's quickly coming up anyway.

So where are your "facts" and "evidence" that show Yozora went 10000% all out? That's just own interpretation of the facts as well.

That there's a few person who believe Yozora threw away the match on purpose is proof that even if it was not meant to come out that way it did to some and it's not just someone shitposting to rile you up.

All you are doing is forcing your own interpretation of the events unto others because they don't fit your own.

holy fuck

The merch anon posted last thread said "Elza", is that the official spelling then?

>>154382577
Okay, how about the S4 tea parties where they explicitly say that they want to beat the new girls? I'm pretty sure just two short episodes ago was the most recent one. Yozora spoke out loud to other people that she wants to beat Mahiru (I don't have the episode on hand, and I know she didn't verbatim say that, but that was the point of the entire conversation). Now it's your turn.

>>154382577
All the S4 members talked about wanting to hold onto their spots until the end. She also outscored the other S4 members, which doesn't really indicate someone who held back. I'm not that guy, I can deal with people talking about Mahiru's lack of character, but the idea that Yozora threw the competition is just fucking dumb.

>>154382829
>>154382854
>What is lying?

>>154382829
>>154382854
Actions speak louder than words. And that she threw the match was what her actions told me this episode.

It's not like if Yozora can really go around and parade I'll throw my match on purpose for my sister. It would kinda defeat the point of it, you know?

>>154382911
Her actions were clearly and obviously an idol desperately trying to be the best. I'm sorry if you can't see that and need to justify why you think Mahiru isn't better than Yozora.

>>154382951
I particularly don't care about Mahiru one way or another so try again.

You know someone has lost the argument when they start calling the opponent a troll/shitposter/baiter.

>>154382911
So much this.
Episode 41 shows how Yozora is so much better than Mahiru.

>>154383085
You know someone is trolling when their only argument is "she lost it because she threw it and not because she was beaten" in the face of a mountain of conflicting facts.

Fucking shit /ai/, can't we just have a reasonable argument for once? Earlier this thread was much better. I care more about being able to communicate like logical humans with you all than being right or wrong. When Yozora says "I'm in it to win" and you just say "no" back, it only makes you look like someone who can't learn.

>>154382911
I really don't see it in her actions either. What exactly about her actions makes you think she didn't go all out?

>Its a Kekhiru episode

Heh, why even bother? I could have just Punch Rin in the face twice.

>>154383190
Are you really just repeating what I said and turning it around? I don't see how "she lost it because she threw it and not because she was beaten" could be used in any argument that isn't about this episode of Aikatsu Stars in particular, so I'm not sure how you'd use it to determine whether someone is a troll in any other context.

>>154383190
You are just proving the guy you just quoted right.

>can't we just have a reasonable argument for once?
Aren't you the one sperging out because they disagree with you?

>>154384314
Kokoro for admin?

>>154385222
Probably, the admins were described as being the closest to S4, and she came in third place for Dance class, above all of the second years and third years except Yozora. I really hope that dress is one that gets added to the game.

>>154385222
I feel bad for all the Admins.

Despite being the supposedly closest to being the S4 as >>154385260 just mentioned, they all keep getting jobbed to a bunch of first years.

Lily is the only Admin that will become S4 be it through a legit win or a pity S4. As much as I like Yuri it pains me to say that she'll most certainly be topped by Yume and Rola on the Song Class competition.

What is even the point of the "perform in a way unique to you" thing when Lily and Rola just pretty much just perform like everyone else? What does "a song only for me" even mean?!

Everyone was doing more of less the same thing until Lily showed up with her out of the norm dress and image song. Dreaming Bird is literally Lily while most other songs are whatever.

Rola should keep Spice Chord and go power metal.

>>154385831
Something something self-produce.

>>154385831
It's in the other stuff they do. I'm not going to argue that the actual CG performances are different, because they aren't.

>>154385932
She is going to get a terrible remix like this cheesy piece of shit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vwZcBg-DUEM

>>154386254
Rock version and the performance were great. Especially that mic throw.

>>154385932
She is probably going to get a new brand inspired by Metal Dolls even if it will basically be a mix between Spice Chord and GV.

>>154386432
>Rola

So i'm guessing this means we'll be getting a new 3DS game announced soon?
The first aistars 3ds game came out around November so we will start rolling previews for a new one around May or June, unless they wanna go for a summer release which seems unlikely. t
They usually do 1 3DS game per Season anyways, im expecting something big because the first one was just a low quality port with most brandless coords but its unlikely.

>>154386524
Sounds more believable honestly. Koharu easily was the glue that held the first half of Stars together.

>>154386564
Koharu isn't even performing. She is basically a fourth wheel.

>>154386593
And she's still more important than Rola. How sad is that?

>>154386524
Does she even have a singing VA to begin with?

If Koharu had gotten a redesign I would be sure she would perform and get a new brand but since it's still same old boring bland Koharu I'm not expecting her to do anything.

>>154386614
Was. Yume, Mahiru and Koharu all got over their need for Koharu to serve as a little girl blanket and Yozora is gone.

I believe Yume's smile could bring world peace.

I see why everyone loved Lily so much. After this second showing, her song really is the best. Judging by the preview for the next episode she's gonna shake things up a little, which is good.

OP2 > OP1, but ED1 > ED2 I think. Though I did like start line a lot.

Also now I get why people laughed at me when I thought the whole rainbow thing was gonna be relevant soon, they've completely ignored it again since the CD release.

KOKORO FOR S4. NEXT YEAR.

>>154388599
This is interesting, but an important caveat is that the different days are incomparable. They're each a mix of a performance and a class-specific activity. In scientific research, you need a baseline to compare things like this accurately. I would not take this to mean that Mahiru is a better idol than Tsubasa or Yuzu, only that she is a better beauty class idol than Yozora.

>>154388599
Mahiru > S4 (has-beens) > The rest (sidles)

Did Hikari's singing voice quit or something? I love Hikari but felt she got cut off or something, I mean she even got songs out. I wish she got a PR in photokatsu too, this is not mabushii.

I don't know if I'm ready for PriPara to end. There are so many episodes I still want to see.

I want Mikan to make a new friend who's really similar to her and Aroma to become jealous but not flip the fuck out like she did in the first arc, more just become sad and pretend nothing's wrong then eventually she talks about it and Mikan says they'll be best friends forever, she likes her more than anyone else and they have a gay as fuck slow dance in the studio they were practicing in.

I want Reona to get chocolates from a male fan who things he's a girl and then he eventually tells him the truth, the fan's shocked but then decides he doesn't care and they become friends with the friend occasionally blushing around him.

I want Pepper and Chiri to be Romeo and Juliet in some kind of PriPara play event thing where Pepper's a terrible actor and Chiri can't handle her shit and keeps blasting her with water when they try the kiss scene and in the actual performance they fuck up and actually kiss, comedy gold and the episode has a duet with them, meanwhile Non gets pissed off about her lack of screentime and keeps popping up as different Triangle members, trying to take over the episode.

So even with the Aura destroying, and what looked like Laura stumbling, Yume didn't actually appear to win by all the much. I'm still mad though.
And then on top of that Koharu leaving. I'll probably have to leave that for tomorrow, I don't think I could handle it right now.

Good.

It shouldn't have happened at all. Rainbow was a mistake.

Uh, no. It was a wonderful resolution combining aspects alluded to throughout the series since the first episode, necessitating several side characters and revealing what their hidden and misunderstood intentions were. Sorry it's not like Pripara where everyone can just come up with the winning Making Drama literally in the middle of performing.

>>154392255
It's like it had never happened at all. What was the point of the Rola angst if the power Yume used to beat her won't be used ever again? At least if it had happened in the 40's it would still be fresh for the S4 election.

Crossover between Stars and OGkatsu.

Yume underwent a change in motivation and character due to it. And if you remember, Rola never cared about it. I'm pretty sure it was episode 12 where she said as much.

>>154392318
Thanks, I like big words.

>>154392379
After that the single other instance of character development for Yume was that episode she shared with M4. Nothing about the arc actually needed to be in the 30's instead of the 40's.
And you're right, Rola actually preferred Yume to use the Rainbow Power just because she is the Vegeta. But that's pointless since she won't use it ever again anyway.

>>154392379
Now if only you actually said something meaningful with them instead of "Stars in perfect and you cannot criticize it in any single manner" like you in all your posts.

Hikari was set up to be a rival of sorts so it was weird that she just disappeared. Looks like one of her actresses biggest roles as well.

>>154392498
Plenty of characterization, for anyone, happens in the moments they're not in the focus. Yume defying everyone's warnings to scale a mountain in the snow to go help Lily, everything she does for Ako when she's trying to get her Glitter. You can say that any character in the show is nice enough to help their friends, but these are moments that define the new proactive Yume. She's a lot more focused now, and much more confident than she was in the beginning without any of the naivety she had about her power at the start.

Rainbow arc has been the most painful thing ever in all of Aikatsu. Even infinite ties works was more tolerable than it.

I'm glad it disappeared and hope they don't ever bring it up again.

>>154392644
I hope you're not implying Yume (and Rola, for that matter) wouldn't have scaled the mountain to help Lily or helped Ako before the Rainbow Power arc. Did you forget when she literally carried Rola through the meme audition?

>>154392697
Yeah, the meme audition they were taking together against those meme girls in the meme school that actually showed up later in the meme episode we were talking about.

Except they were right there next to each other on the same team, no shit Yume helped her.

>>154392747
So are you saying that the only reason Yume would help one of her friends is and only if she would be negatively affected by whatever is troubling her friend or friends?

>>154392839
No, clearly it was proximity and desire to be helped. Lily's entire thing is about being independent, and again, she was who the hell knows where on top of a snowy mountain. Not within arm's reach.

what the fuck is the rainbow arc

>>154392883
You think Yume wouldn't have helped Lily after episodes 26 and 28 regardless of Rainbow Arc?

>>154392966
It's that thing in the sky when it's sunny after raining.

>>154392991
If she had known? Maybe. But also remember that Rola didn't notice anything and just assumed Lily was concentrating hard. It's because of Yume's experience (and also talking to Lily a lot) that she realized Lily was in trouble and also went to great lengths to help her.

>>154392966
There is no "rainbow arc", it's 2/3 of the entire show.

>>154392646
They might give Yume a partial reset just to bring it back so they can have some poor excuse of a narrative when they run out of ideas.

>>154392094
I was really mad at this episode too, a lot of people were and it showed in the threads for that whole week. And I cried like a bitch at 30.

Look at this dork believing she can hold a candle against Lala.

You have to be a real drone to not have been platinum mad at that episode.

>Even Precure is doing new things each year.
Putting a new coat of paint on a wall whose paintwork is peeling does not make it a new wall.

I used to hold Precure in high standard but then expanded by worldview and watched more children's anime and realized how bottom of the barrel Precure is in comparison.

I wish there were one or two other yearly magical girl franchises instead of just Precure.

>>154393491
In hindsight, I should've saved my breath rather than getting into heated discussions about episode 29 since I thought they were doing Rola a disservice, unaware that I'd end up barely caring about her later on. I hope they salvage her in S2.

What happens in episode 29 again?

>>154393708
Rola trains much harder than Yume to win the halftime show audition, but lolrainbow activates, destroys Rola's aura and Rola loses to Yume again without understanding why.

>>154393491
I was not mad. I was both happy for Yume, but sad and frustrated and disappointed for Rola. It was a complex mix of emotions. And then when Yume apologizes to Rola later she says it doesn't matter, which should've been obvious to anyone paying attention. You'd have to be a real drone to get mad.

>>154393792
And later the best teacher ever tells her she was training wrong and that's why she lost. How can Johnny even compete?
