Azunyan!
Aikatsu-only Event 10 is tomorrow and I saw lots of neat doujinshi coming. I already have $200-300 waiting to be spent.
From the looks of it, only a few Aikatsu Stars!-related yuri doujinshi will be available, but there are lots of books for the OG Aikatsu.
Pic related: One of the books I'm going to buy.
>>2088921
>Marimite parody
Interesting.
>>2088921
That cover artwork is spectacular
So does Stars really have het or what? Some anon said that in the general thread, but his posts make it seem like he's exaggerating to be honest.
>>2089079
het annoying subtext
the same level as a idiot girl or a user of facebook or user of Live Journal can understand
>>2089154
Does anyone still use LJ other than the Ruskis?
>>2089168
It was just to measure the level of intelligence of het famdom
>>2089154
Details would be nice. Who, why, when, how much, etc?
>>2089187
You chose quite an odd comparison.
If there's one thing the first series was lacking, it's wincest ships (yeah, we had the twin designers, but not enough of them).
>>2089079
One guy clearly likes Yume.
In the last episode she didn't even remember his name, though.
Maybe he's just there to like the girl that the viewer is supposed to identify with. It could turn to het, though, but that would mean destroying the status quo.
>>2089399
>it could turn het
Last I heard even in this setting that would be instant career suicide.
>>2089346
Yuri incest on Lunch!
LITERALLY took out the red carpet. Bet Yume too a nibble at it.
>>2089452

Childhood friends always win in yuri. Not big surprise.
>>2089835
Not always, but they /do/ win more than in het manga where they almost never win.
First batch of books arrived.
Did /u/ completely lose interest in this?
>>2092319
I think we've just become lazier in general (inb4 not hive mind yadda yadda). At least for me personally, there's not as much of a drive to scour Pixiv for stuff or take screencaps of kinda gay scenes every five seconds. At least not to fill in the gap between episode releases.
>>2092319
I bought books!
>>2092319
No.
>>2089399
no, the sad thing is that there is no attraction between Yume and Suzaku
but the idiot people (even within Anime) see them as a couple ... but this is not the case
>>2089230
in short, is idiotic people who think that their "Fanon" is "Canon" and only they have reason...
support such people for 3 years, at the end of everything I win, and still they refuse to accept that they lost
Bought 5 more books. It sucks some of the best ones weren't sold in Tora and Melon. Though I'm monitoring other sites for used books. Or maybe the catalogue will improve after NatsuKomi.
>>2095724
Cute
>178 episodes
Wow
>>2095945
Well, your mileage will vary. If you like the first main characters and don't like the new cast, you're good for around 100 episodes. But yeah, it depends. Pic related, characters from S3-S4.

I miss them very, very, very, VERY much, Anon. I've grown attached to them and it sucks I can no longer see them on screen. I literally started scanlation because of Aikatsu and Aoi and the show isn't really the same without the original 3. I guess the upcoming movie will make me happy for a while.

I can give you one word for that and it can have 3, 6, or 12 letters. The fact that this thread is operated by a jackass from a crappy, poorass country isn't helping at all. Aikatsu isn't Aikats/u/ anymore.
Just go for Love Live if you want an idol anime that's not contaminated by that word, or by a self-insert producer for that matter.
>>2099772
I don't own this thread, though.
>isn't helping at all
That's debatable, unless me and my group producing Aikatsu doujinshi periodically isn't helping the thread. But we're currently the only active group dedicated in translating these books, so I have more contribution than anyone here.
Maybe the problem stems from overblowing the supposed frequency of het shit and cry wolf. I seriously doubt you even watched the anime and just parroting like typical drones.
>>2099772
One installment doesn't taint the entire franchise. I really hate using that word, but you really sound like a purityfag.
>>2099805
Keep the thread up SHiN, I'm the proud OP of another Idol thread that has a self-insert and het and with or without /u/, I'm gonna keep bumping it until it reaches the bump limits...or the anniversary of it's creation.
>>2099772
A Wild Angry Mugino appears to rant about the superiority of Love Live.
>>2099847
That's not Mugino, nee-san. That's some leftover shitposter from /a/ who evidently doesn't like Shin. Mugino is inacapable of writing coherent English. As much of an asshole this guy is, he can actually write English, therefore is not Mugino.
Don't pay attention to him Shin. Just keep doing what you're doing.

Sakura Trick is not dropped. Patience, my friend.
>>2101772
Comfy!
>>2101772
I agree, Akari's weather is great!
um
so what exactly is "aikatsu"?
I'm looking at this thread and I'm kinda confused.
>>2101943
roughly translates to "passionate idol acivities". It's kind of the catch phrase that the idols use when they're talking about their training and performances, etc.
>>2101943
It's short for Aidoru Katsudou (Idol Activities). Basically one of those four syllable abbreviations Japan likes to use for speedy business purposes, including shortened light novel titles and shipping names.
I think it's safe to assume there's an annoyed ST Anon lurking about, and since there's no ST thread currently up...
>>2101778
>>2097573
Currently in the QC phase~!

D-Don't be too demanding, Anon! Next chapter is next month.

>>2103412
>>2103413
>>2103414
This is very dialogue-driven, so don't expect any lewd moments. The developing romance between Aoi and Ran is indeed nice.As usual.
New batch came in. Lots of IchiMizu this time. The book at the bottom middle is NOTO-san's first ever Aikatsu! book.
>>2104159

>tfwI'm the most active poster here
Ran finally arrived! I didn't pre-order Ichigo because I was a wee bit skeptical about the quality of the figures. Once fans started posting pictures of Ichigo, I immediately pre-ordered Aoi and then Ran. I will get Ichigo very soon, though.
Oh the things I will do with these figs...
>>2105196
Yeah mate, with the amount of work you're putting into my all time favourite series, you deserve a bunch more appreciation and credit than you're getting. Thanks.
>>2105197
Beautiful as always. I ship IchiAo but the dynamic between Ran and Aoi is great, it makes me think what happened during the year ichigo was away in America. What sort of stuff did they do together? How did they live their lives, what happened? There are so many things that could have happened.
>>2105832
Saw these on Twitter, really tempted to get them. Where did you get them and how much did they cost you?
I would post more but currently don't have a computer so it's hard to post images to bump the thread.
Did you watch the episode that came out yesterday?
>>2105849
The figuarts cost 4,390 yen each (sans shipping) and I think their price will eventually increase once the supplies are getting low. I pre-ordered both Aoi and Ran, and you get some cards as pre-order bonuses.
I haven't watch this week's and last week's episode because I was too preoccupied getting the last 3 doujinshi read for release. I will watch both of them probably tonight or tomorrow. If I recall correctly, last week's episode is about Mahiru and Yozora. Not sure about this week's episode.
As for the RanAo, yeah, it's great, especially Secret x Secret. There are a few books that tells a different possible story between Ran and Aoi, but nae's SxS is more, say, plausible. I hope nae won't release her third (and probably final book) exclusive to events. Browsing used book stores is a pain.
>>2105853
You ever played the game?
Yeah, last week was them duetting, this one is about Hime, Yume and Laura. Loved it.
What do you mean by used book stores?
>>2105929
Not really (unfortunately). I need to be in Japan to do that. 3DS games? I have an N3DS, but I can't be assed to hack it.
Used book stores like Mandarake. Some used rare books are pricey, but they're worth it, especially if they're good. I'm willing to spend more money if I can get my hands on that HinaJuri Sukebook and that very rare RanAo short book.
>>2105956
Yeah aikatsu stars is out on the 3DS, I'm not even sure if it costs anything. Sucks we can't play it cause region locks.
Since you said you don't live in Japan, you mean online used bookstores?
Also, to keep the thread going, what's your favourite episode of Aikatsu?
More books. I forgot I already have the IchiAo Anthology and ended up buying it again.
What pisses me off is the stickers are plastered on the covers. Do you know any guides on how to safely peel them off?
>>2106156
>Since you said you don't live in Japan, you mean online used bookstores?
Online and offline. My friend goes to Akihabara every once in a while so he'll buy any Aikatsu books he may come across. Mostly we buy them online though.
>Also, to keep the thread going, what's your favourite episode of Aikatsu?
There are lots of them like the Swallowtail episode, that episode where Aoi asking Rei to get out of that egg, the Stranger Alien episode, the Vamp-katsu episode, etc. If I were to pick one, I'd say the Stranger Alien episode mainly because it's an Aoi episode, it has a catchy music video, and the art and animation were well done.
Oh man, I don't think I've posted here since the start of S2. But this scene gave too much of a S1 flashback to simply ignore it.
>>2106408
OOOOOOOO!
An Akari x Sumire x Hinaki
>>2106408
Lucky, must be nice to live in Akiba.
All those episodes were pretty well done yeah, stranger alien was really good too. Couldn't get the song out of my head and some Aoi character development is always good.
Do you play photokatsu?
>>2106418
Personally i think Mahiru's the cutest, the way she acts is really adorable. Love the relationship between her and Yozora too, what with them hugging and saying how much they love each other.
>>2106568
>>2106561
>DAT MAHIRU
I really need to watch the new episodes soon.
And no, I don't play it because I don't have a mobile device powerful enough to run it. ;_;
>>2106569
You definitely should, if only to watch the scene where Yozora and Mahiru make up.
>>2106818
>>2106820
>>2106823Mahiru a qt
>>2106825
Laura a qt too.
>>2106833
Yume getting upset over her girlfriend not being there. I'm pretty sure over 50% percent if not more of Yume's dialogue was only "Laura!"
>>2106840
Gay long-distance high five.
>>2106841
Hime - 「ゆめちゃんの瞳の中にローラちゃんがいる」
>>2106843
Hime finally realised Yume's love for Laura.
>>2106844
"Laura, Laura! Laura! Laura!"
I'm so tempted to make a video of every single time Yume says Laura in this episode..
>>2106848
Laura!
>>2106850
>>2106852
T-Tsubasa senpai...!
>>2106853
>>2106854
>>2106853
Wasn't this the girl with the het crush?
>>2106855
Hime looking crestfallen.
>>2106856
There is a guy called Subaru in the series but he's a very minor character. Yume dislikes him and he doesn't get much screen time in the first place, if any. It's mostly played for laughs but the characters are gay enough to watch and enjoy it imo.
>>2106858
Keep the PDA to a minimum, folks.
>>2106864
Let's not forget about this.
>>2106866

>>2106156
>Also, to keep the thread going, what's your favourite episode of Aikatsu?
I might be the only person who ever cared about Hikari but her episode from S1 is pretty damn good. It's funny how her setting was 'the winner of the best idol in her grade award for n years running' and then they just wrote her off.
Yurika's first ep and the Arabian Nights Sora-Ran eps were pretty good, too.
>>2106568
Yeah, she's a fun addition to the new cast. She does resemble Ran from the beginning of S1 in many ways, but Ran mellowed out around Ichigo and Aoi. I expect Mahiru to follow the same path.
>>2106893
>She does resemble Ran
>Koharu came first.
>Koharu didn't get any CGI scenes.
>Koharu is like the cute type idol, so her role is redundant since Yume is also a cute type.
>Mahiru comes in to fill in the role as the sexy type.
>Mahiru has a CGI dance scene.
>Koharu is Yume's childhood friend.
These all point to one thing:childhood friends never win.
Being Koharu is suffering. Welcome to the Yuu Club, Koharu. ;_;7
>>2106904
I assume she'll get some extreme makeover at some point.
>>2106909
>I assume she'll get some extreme makeover at some point.
Hmmm... I'm okay with a long-haired Koharu when she reaches her 2nd-3rd year and be Mahiru's very special someone.
>>2106904
Oh for chrissake, somebody PLEASE take that McDonald's M and turn it upside down and center it over Sakura's mouth and space the kanji charas over her eyebrows
>>2107100
I'd do it myself, but I couldn't photoshop my way out of a box...
>>2106893
Nah, i cared about Hikari a lot too. Shame she never got any showtime afterwards except brief cameos.
Also, that episode with Ran and Sora had to be my all time favourite. Ran was so cool and Sora was so adorable, wish they would've had more screentime together.
As for Mahiru, I hope we'll get to see more development from her, in the movie too.
>>2106904
Was thinking the exact same thing watching the episode. Where's all the Koharu love? She's basically turned into a supporting/background character by now.
>>2106910
I hope so, too. They would make the cutest couple.
What do you all think of S4?
>>2107217
Funnily enough, Yuzu seems the least interesting for now, and sometimes her "dazo" quip can get quite grating. Maybe I'll like her once the anime gives her more episodes.
So far I really like Yozora and Tsubasa.
>>2107226
I wonder how Yuzu will deal when the others graduate before her. I also wonder if it'll be like Starlight and have the high school adjacent to the middle school.
She's getting an episode either this week or next week, pretty sure it's in two weeks time. That'll be a good thing for her character development, I hope.
Yozora's a best, Tsubasa's really cute too.
Am I the only one who loves the dynamic between Hime and Yozora?
Ep 16 subs:
http://mezashite.net/index.php/2016/07/31/aikatsu-stars-016/
YAY! Background lesbians!
>>2107432
Good LORD this ep was gay
>LAURA! LAURA! LAURA! LAURA! LAURA! LAURA! LAURA! LAURA! LAURA! LAURA! LAURA!
Might as just well say MARRY ME!
>>2107583
Glomping Gay Idols
these two, holding hands in the center of the poster... lewd...
>>2107605
Yeah, they're pretty freaking gay. Hell, Laura's almost all deredere now. Not much tsuntsun left.
>>2107608
True, Onee-sama. In fact, the only real time she does the tsun thing is when she's trying to make Yume do or feel what she needs to be doing or feeling.She needs to be 'feeling' Laura
>>2107583
Exactly what i said. I love how their relationship is progressing.
>>2107627
and next week is an M4 ep, where Yume will continue to give absolutely zero fucks about the guys. Just like she's been doing since the start of the series.
Rare books coming through. And no, I checked carefully. The book on the left is yuri, IchiAo.
>mfw watching episode 15
Great episode.
>>2107776
If you think 15's good.... wait until you get to 16
>>2107628
Yeah, i actually love Yume's reactions. She couldn't be less interested.
>>2107740
Wow, thanks! They look pretty good.
>>2107776
Yes, yes it was. Beautiful. Absolutely magnificent.
>>2107813
Agreed. Yume not giving a fuck about going on stage with the biggest star there and instead worrying about her girlfriend.
>>2107838
Well, it's not like she didn't give a fuck about going up with Hime.... It's more like, she wanted her best fr... erm... lover to be there, but since she couldn't, Yume was gonna do her best so for Laura's sake, since she couldn't make it. Those 2 are gayer than rainbow coloured unicorns being ridden by care bears at the head of the Gaytown Pride Parade.
>>2107843
Meant to add that Yume likes Hime, but it's more hero worship than anything. I think she was feeling really conflicted before she talked to Laura on the phone. She really wanted to perform w/ Hime, but she felt she was shoving Laura out of the way and she didn't want that at all...
>>2107843
They really are, it's so much fun.
>>2107847
Yeah i was thinking that, it's more of a admiration thing than anything else.
Maybe my goggles are set too tight, but does anyone else think Hime might have a thing for Yume?
>>2107871
>>2107874
>>2107875
She always seems really happy and blushy blushy whenever Yume is involved.
>>2107387
I could get behind that if not for how the whole scene was just Hime telling Yozora incest is a-ok.
And I mean, I don't mind yuri incest but when one girl tells the other 'I like you. You should go home to your house and fuck your sister.' then I have little hope for their relationship.
Unless you just meant as friends, in which case it is kinda cute I guess.
>>2107876
It's funny but it feels like Hime actually has more interest in Yume than the other way around, and that's not exactly the usual 'I hope senpai notices me' pattern.
Aikatsu threads haven't been this active since S1, have they.
Haven't seen the recent episode yet, but I'll watch it soon.
Also is there a guide on how to play Photokatsu? I got the game, did the first song, got a Hinaki card and everything else is just guess work. I get to play with the Glamorous Blue song, ranked up to rank 2 and... I dunno what to do. Also is this game requires constant connection? Game keeps downloading assets all the time and there's a loading wait in my main menu.
Also new character Shirogane Lily
http://www.aikatsu.com/stars/news/059.php
Appears to have a close relationship with Yuzu and judging by the lily emblem and the name itself... The goggles are tingling.
And thankfully Ako is into the lilies.
>>2108370
Yeah though that mightve been a case of her just being mature and wanting yozora to be happy.
Holy shit i misunderstood that scene.
Also that's what i was getting at. Like you said, it seems like a reverse senpai notice me and more like kouhai notice me.
>>2108541
There should be one, there's a guide on tumblr and photokatsu subreddit. Usually i just played the songs and unlocked events.
Holy shit she looks epic. I ship TsubaYuzu though, this'll probably sink that.
>>2108545
Is this from a doujin you bought? Or does it have a manga? Either way Tsubasa can be pretty hot when she wants to.not on topic but there's a high chance i might have autism, it's really taking a toll on me so apologies if my post is worded weirdly, getting a diagnosis test done in two weeks
>>2108592
It's actually an official manga. Ciao Comics. Pic related, though the artist for the new manga is no longer Shirayuki Bambi IIRC.
>>2108601
Wow, did you buy it or do you know if there's any way to get it outside Japan?
It seems like they're pandering more to yuri fans more than anything else right now.
>>2108626
Your friend that lives in Akiba?
>>2108628
I forgot to clarify: I have a friend in Japan, but doesn't live in Akiba. He just goes there from time to time.
And yes, my friend (actually my first TL) in Japan buys stuff for me.
>>2108629
Oh right, niiiiiiice. They going to see the movie? And speaking of movies, anybody know when the bluray will be out?
Finally got around and watched episode 16. Great episode and Rola is smug as ever.
>>2108707
He's not an Aikatsu fan. He's just buying the stuff I listed and he's totally cool with it. I only bought this >>2088841 because of that RanAo and rare artwork.Would love to personally see the movie though.
Chances are the BDs will show up next year around June-July.
>>2109654
Damn it, next year? That long? So we can't watch it until then?
Okay episode. The biggest offender is these guys have fucking horrible fashion sense. I guess the mismatch is to compensate for their samey faces.
I'm a bit disappointed Not-Yurika (who barely had any screen time) gets a CGI dance scene before Koharu. Since Not-Yurika is in the special ticket artwork for the movie, Koharu is, sadly, thrown to the side. Next episode will be interesting though.
>>2109906
That's normal for BDs to appear months after the initial airing of the movie. You need to go to Japan if you wanna watch it very early.Bring a camera with you and share the cam rips, please.
Also awkward
Extremely awkward
>>2110363
Koharu is a better character and she deserves to be taken more into consideration...
the problem is that not-Yurika is a horrible character...
next episode, proof of human stupidity...
>>2110363
Dear god I wish I could go to Japan but unfortunately I don't have £1000+ to spare.
I thought they were pretty cool personally, they're likeable characters in their own right. Just think, it could've been handled a lot worse.
I was pretty confused about that. Where's Koharu's peformance? Yuzu's, even Tsubasa's? It had to be done though to make her part of the main cast. Then where does Koharu stand?
Also, the movie comes out next week or the week after doesn't it? If the BD came out in June-July next year that'd be almost a year, not only months.
>>2110431
Personally I'm looking forward to Yuri's episode, I love her character and hope it gets improved on.
>>2110366
Have you played Akari and Sumire's second scenario? It's pretty awesome. Also, the songs are ridiculously hard imo.
>>2110530
Well, yeah, but who knows, maybe the BD will come out in spring next year. It really depends.
I haven't played their scenarios yet and I'm focusing more on clearing Glamorous Blue before it ends (not sure when).
And from what I can tell, the higher the rarity and the higher the level of your cards will increase the bonuses during the actual gameplay. I played Idol Katsudou easy mode using level 1 normal cards and even though I aced the timings, I didn't get rank C. I guess I need to get more rare cards and level them up, but man, it'll be a grindfest.
>Also, the songs are ridiculously hard imo.
No kidding. Glamorous Blue scenario 7 is insane. It's like you need 10 fingers at once to play.
>>2110697
Yeah, get SRs and whatever else, level up them. Different units get different bonuses.
Yeah, that's the reason i stopped playing. Couldn't do the last stage no matter what (and it's ridiculous it takes 16lp)
Also saw these on twitter
>>2110968
Forgot to attach image, didn't realise Yozora and Tsubasa were so tall, much less the same height
>>2110970
Koharu is pretty tall, and for Mahiru ooks like tallness runs in the family
>>2110970
From what i understand from my limited knowledge, it's listing what their features are and what they like/hobbies (?)
Hime - tea parties, napping
Tsubasa - running
Yuzu - Illustration (not sure about this one, is it right? She likes drawing then?)
Yozora - bathing and travelling
There's a high chance i got them mixed up so if anybody could check that'd be great
>>2110972
>tallness runs in the family
Then their brother got the recessive genes because I think he's the smallest.
Yozora and Tsubasa being tall is understandable, but Koharu is taller than Rola and Yume? I didn't notice the height difference at all.
>>2110968
I'm not giving up on beating Scenario 7 just yet. I'm just gonna level up and get the best cards and hope I can beat the scenario at least rank C.
>>2110979
>>2110979
I was actually thinking about that. He's really small isn't he? Also the younger brother character he said, so like a shota?
As for Koharu you can notice in most scenes that she's taller than Yume and Laura.
Have you done any other scenarios? You said your phone couldn't run it though or was that something else?
What's this?
>>2110982
The brother was introduced in episode 14 and as far as I recall, he's no taller than Rola and Yume.
I haven't done any scenarios yet and I couldn't play the app because my tablet was slow. I recently got a new phone so I'm slowly catching up.
How do I level up my card capacity? It appears I'm limited to 100 cards.
>>2111124
He's probably the youngest and I got a Samsung J7 2016 edition.
>>2111361
I'm not sure if you can. There was a bug when the game first came out that if you had a certain amount of cards you couldn't play, think they fixed it though.
There probably is a way but for now just level up characters with any other ones you don't need.
Isn't Mahiru the youngest? Since he's in M4 i assumed he was at least in 2nd year.
Which begs the question, do you think this'll last long like the prequel?
>>2111447
Well that is an awkward image...
Any idea on how to level up Skill?
>>2111447
I'm not really sure about that and I'm not honestly interested in discussing M4. They're so forgettable and I dislike them even more in episode 17.
I barely beat Glamorous Blue's last scenario, but my game crashed. Game still registered I cleared the game, but I'm not what was the reward. Dammit.
>>2111623
Yeah it tends to do it.
>>2111639
Any idea what were the rewards? I got a few stars from the looks of it, and didn't notice anything else.
>>2110972
>Laura and Yume are the same height
That's convenient. I approve.
>>2110983
Update. Aikatsu Stars! will show up on Photokatsu this August 10th. But sadly the Stars girls won't interact with the OG girls.
For something /u/ related, we're currently working on Kokoro no Doukasen (AkaSumi). We may share the book this month.
For non-lewd connoisseurs, we're done with the initial translations of Sweet Bitter Kiss (Ran x Yurika x Kaede) chapter 2. Also scheduled for August.
Chapter 1 can be found here: http://dynasty-scans.com/chapters/sweet_bitter_kiss_1
And the third book for August will be chapter 2 of the official manga Secret Story.

>>2107581
Don't know why but for me they look like Chikane and Himeko~ That pretty much confirms that they really are gay.
>>2112612
I was actually talking about the ones on the leftholding hands, but now that you mention it, the ones in the centre /do/ look like Chikane and Himeko.
More books.I'm already overspending here.What's worse is NatsuKomi is coming this week and that means more books to buy. Dear god...
>>2113180
The one on the right looks incredibly dramatic.

Sweet Bitter Kiss is currently a 5-part series. Part 5 is coming this NatsuKomi. From what I can tell, this is probably the longest RanYuri series.
Bump. Aikatsu! and Aikatsu Stars! Movies are already showing in Japan.
More books.
And this is the last batch (for now).
>>2118836
MadokaRin in a nutshell.
>lilies in background
Subtle, very subtle
Shirogane Lily confirmed in the anime. Her name is literally lily, so the goggles are tingling.
Aikatsu Stars! has a bright f/u/ture with Lily.
>>2122265
I'm already in love with her
>>2122950
She's promising at delivering the yuri goods and I hope she delivers.
>>2123000
is she a bad girl?
>>2123678
M-Maybe
>>2122265
frankly I do not have much faith but...
I just hope she save Stars to remain Stars...
Does the movie increase the Yume x Rola or is it my imagination?
>>2124396
>Rola
>Lola
>Laura
What the FUCK is her NAME!?
>>2124416
during presentations can be read "Rola" ...
but "Laura" feel better...
>>2124416
The official romanization is Rola
The Aikatsu Stars movie is basically super-gay according to people that watched it. Screencaps seem to confirm it. There is also an scene in which Yume romantically gives Rola a necklace.

sweet bitter kiss II (RanYuri) by Lazy Lily Fansubs
Hey, g/u/ys. Thanks for helping us finish this doujin. This book was pretty tough.

This is a sequel to this:

Stars will never be as gay as OG. Aikatsu is truly cosmic ded
Aikatsu! Secret Story chapter 02 is out
http://lazylily.moe/aikatsu-secret-story-chapter-02-is-out/
>>2121053
I'm sure eating crepes all alone in that room wasn't the only thing they did.
>>2139131
We'll soon find out this week, Anon.
from /a/ https://mega.nz/#F!qFBUHBTT!ySUfI4869BFAZsi8MgyHsA
How heavy is the /u/ here? Is it just "2 girls in the same room so I ship them", "they're close friends so I ship them", or "these two are literally about to fuck but japan won't let them" level?
>>2140888
Around the "they're close friends so I ship them" range. There is one legit lesbian though and she's hard gay and tsundere for someone. Sadly this someone usually ignores her.
The main couple Aoi and Ichigo is a fan favorite and they even got a CD dedicated to them. The theme is June Bride and the title of the song is literally Aoi Ichigo.
The main pair in Aikatsu Stars! is leaning a bit towards the they're close friends so I ship them zone, judging by testimonies of people who had seen the movie and fan art like these:

>>2140901
Okay. Thank you anon.
Was just wondering if I should bother with the show or just read doujins.
Although planned to watch it eventually regardless, no point in skipping over my backlog if no real /u/
>>2140918
It really is great
It is one of the best Idol Animes... the het parts is nothing more than fanon... I'm not exaggerating...
Stars on the other hand... There is M4... It is like Jupiter from im@s but worse
>>2141017
Kill yourself.
>>2140888
Aikatsu outgayed DokiDoki like it was nothing and I thought no children show will outgay DokiDoki. It's gayer than all shitty kirara adaptations (except for Yuyushiki) and late night weeb pandering idolshit put up together. Most gay is in seasons 3 and 4 despite the MC actually being het. There like 8 couples in total lol.
I don't see Stars reaching the same level though japs day that movie was p. gay.

That comic series is great, btw. Thanks!
Lily just made her actual debut. She's childhood friends with Yuzu and visually she looks like an unholy union of Sumire and Maria.

Kokoro no Doukasen (AkaSumi) is finally finished.
http://lazylily.moe/26-lewd-kokoro-no-doukasen-aikatsu-is-out/
>>2150131>It’s been a widely accepted fact AkaSumi is the OTP,Yeah, and limbless Akari is canon
Doesn't mean I'm not going to read it though.
>>2150191
Which reminds me... I've seen a slightly decent amount of stump Akari art and I dunno why. I mean, I don't think I've seen the other Aikatsus getting the same treatment.
>>2150195
Yandere Sumire meme.
>>2150131
is this error on the raw or yours?
>>2150427
It's part of the doujin. The LQ raw (we didn't use it)
https://exhentai.org/s/6801f80905/922763-29
also has the same pen stroke.
Pls
>>2151466
OH GOD WHAT IS THAT AND CAN WE GET MORE?
Reposted from /ai/. S4 senpai is right all along. She saw Koharu's potential.
Just watched ep25. I'm pretty sure the girls wanted Koharu to be sexy and I can pretty much guess who is the main culprit.
Koharu as supporting character instead part of the main 4 is baffling.
Next episode is also interesting, and I'm still hopeful Lily will bring the Lilies. Though from the looks of it, Yuzu isn't really the romantic type.
>>2151835
That's one image. It's not cropped or part of a set. Though if you want more from the same artist...
>>2152097
Ok this is lewd holy shiy.
Stars makes late night feel shame.
>>2152113
>late night anime
Right. I forgot I had my filters on. No wonder the thread bumped. Keeping it on.
>>2152118
What's wrong with those posts? I don't see anything weird or orz or anything...
>>2152097
Stupid Sexy Koharu
>>2152499
Ichi—? I filtered names for a few years now, so whatever it was filtered, it's probably something I don't like.
>>2152501
Oh. I see.
It's like the game knew what I wanted since the day I started playing. My first PR is Aoi. <3 <3 <3
BUT DAT AOI THO

What does Aikats/u/ think of RanYuri? This is my project for October, but...
>>2156420
I ended up solving my own problem. It's time to translate this book.
>>2156435
Ded and forgotten. Yurika x Kaede is superior anyway.
>>2156509
But you're still gonna read the doujin? Right?
>>2156511
Of course.
>>2156435
It was too gay for a little girls show so they discarded the pairing.
>>2156550
>Giving Ran to Sora the Gigolette
And it only got gayer from then on.
>>2156550
>>2156587
Ran is just the gayest gay aidoru who ever gayed all the gay aidorus.
Yurika is with Kaede
Aoi is with Ran
I'm totally okay with this.
>>2156435
>Yui's book
god bless.
>>2156796
Why do you hate Ichigo, SHiN?;_;
>>2156801
I don't. I ship her with Aoi and Mizuki.
I'd also ship her with Ran (there's a book for that) or OT3 like the recent short doujin we translated.
>>2156802
Okay, good. You seemed to be all about the Aoi and Ran, so I thought you wanted Ichigo to stay out in the cold, but I feel better now./blog
>>2156802
SHiN why do you suddenly post on /u/ again? Did /a/ bully you out?
>>2156835
More or lessyeah. Got kicked out from the only threads I cared posting in. Technically I showed myself out. It's been 2 years now.
Glad I did.
>>2156866
Welp. Keep up with the gay doujins and we're all good here.Hell, just keep up with the gay pictures and we're good.

yui's art style is very attractive.

New OP and new ED, and they're glorious.
OP is more yuri-centric now with lots of YumeRola. The ED is free from dubstep and went back to the cutesy story-book style.
Episode 26 is also neat with Yuzu so clingy towards Lily.
>>2158113
Finally!!!
the first "OP" was disappointing... everyone knows what I'm talking...
I personally like the ED was different but right for Aikatsu!...
at first Aikatsu! I had low priority for me, but eventually rose to high priority... but thanks to M4 is low priority again...
They are ruined part of the previous episode... its existence is overstretched, It seems to be the only Idol men when there are supposed to have their own school... this makes their existence is even more stupid and forced...
>>2158113
Oh god... FINALLY no dubstep.
New thread?
I really don't want to make it meself.
I was tired of seeing SHiN put off creating a new thread, wanted to post about the new OP, and didn't want people to miss out on hearing that the latest episode is out. As a result I created:
