I'm actually using a Galaxy Note 2, which is fairly bigger than the standard phone. But then again, I can see how people would use more fingers for a tablet.

I'm just so comfortable hitting the notes with just my thumbs that I can't be bothered to use my other fingers, especially cause I like holding my phone while playing the game.

This is also why I don't play Starlight Stage. The swipes aren't easy to pull off using just thumbs.

I've been going pure thumbs with Starlight Stage. Not that great but I've learned and gotten decent at doing Pros (though still quite far from a FC) from practice, familiarization with patterns, and just plain getting better. Also on a Galaxy Note 2, though I started with my Nexus 7 and that was notably harder with just thumbs.

In tend to play with thumbs, but I'm only on pro and not master level.

Same here. I've been tempted to try fingers but thumbs are just so much more comfortable/portable.

Technically speaking they're basically all parallel universes, with all the First and Second Vision business. Oddly enough though, they haven't said if Platinum Stars is considered to be Third Vision or whatever.

This handy guide has been making the rounds online.

"Man time to take my idols to a place where the company's worst enemy is."

It's loving laughable how the Pres can go talk to Kuroi after all the poo poo that he's pulled, and laugh in response.

"Oh, we're friends deep down, it's cool that you loving tried to mentally destroy one of my idols."

ZepiaEltnamOberon posted:

Like I really really really really really really REALLY loving hate this in manga and anime and books and shows and movies.

Kuroi literally attempted to destroy someone's life out of a petty vendetta.

But no, they're just treating it like a friend's temper tantrum.

ZepiaEltnamOberon posted:

"He's not even a bad guy behind all that."

How do you even justify saying this literally 1 episode after Chihaya's arc?

How do you justify saying this about a guy who's constantly and maliciously thrown poo poo to destroy people's careers?

I enjoyed the show but yeah, that just really drove me nuts. I'm fine it they want to play with his cartoon villain hamminess but after what happened to Chihaya, pretending that all is forgiven is absurd. The Chihaya arc almost gets me as much as Uzuki's arc.

Idol Music

I've heard (on the internet!) that for CG lives, the performers aren't required to fully get in to character.

Just watched the CG 26 and now I'm sad that there's no more animated CG.

As someone who didn't know much about idolmaster or cinderella girls when I watched the shows, I much prefer CG's approach over im@s'.

I found Doki's subs to be decent. They also translate Anya's Russian and do the song lyrics better than CR.

yeah I like when rika just acts like a bratty kid because that's funny. I guess her wanting to emulate her sister is also along those same lines, but I just can't Condone This Behavior in regards to just what exactly she wants to copy. Though I guess the funny little kid moments wouldn't be as funny if they weren't in comparison to her other habits.

Yeah, I wasn't a fan of her initially but it's great how she's not trying to repress her childish side. She wants to be a sexy gyaru idol like Mika but catching beetles is also super cool.

If you want lyrics, just get Doki's subs for it. Also, the CG manga based off the anime does some extra characterization for Mio here.

Seriously just grab subs with lyrics and stop complaining. You will be wondering how you could've been watching idols all along without the lyrics and then go rewatch the earlier episodes for those songs.

In the manga, we get a glimpse of Mio's numerous trophies and accolades, not just in athletics but also in academics. It adds a bit to how hard she took the 'failure' of the mini-live.

Is the Weather Network not a thing.

I mean, sure, people like to joke about weather forecasts being wrong but they're actually right a lot of the time.

If you knew it was gonna rain, you probably couldn't move the date cause it took months of pre-planning. But you could have at least installed some temporary stuff to keep the rain away.

Well...

Man, I was happy getting Kyoko to finish out my SSR PCS. Then earlier this month I got Rin SSR and used my ticket for Mio for SSR NG.

Apparently Chieri had a more solid characterization/development arc in the mobage? Not that it matters now that the anime and Starlight Stage is more 'canon'.

Just little bits covering stuff that happens off-camera or between episodes.

This guy has them translated.

7.5k gems and just a couple of SRs to show for it. Oh well, I have the original trio of New Gen SSRs with coordinated outfits already, so the sting of wasting so many gems isn't nearly as bad.
