Speaking of vending machines, I wish Bamco wasn't so strict about Im@s anime being limited to idol drama and one mecha series.
Imagine if they did other genres, like an absurdist comedy for SC.

This isn't koito anymore

yes, Juri is way sexier than Natty

>>535359735

Now give her wiiiiide hips.

Why is chie like that?

>>535359508
That was the dream but now it looks like it might happen sooner or later.
You know what's interesting? The Cosmo short that blew up was the first one after they lifted the apparent restriction on only dancing to otaku music. That means Letora's one clip away from blowing up too. She only needs to spam more covers.
Now that the rule's gone, it'll probably become rarer to see Cosmo dancing to random im@s songs.

>>535360676

Her mom groomed her to be like THAT.

I hope someone scans this if only because I would never believe Saki would play Cyber Dragons unless you're making an allusion to the GX anime?

Shed probably play UA or Argostars due to sports or some training styles archetype.

Maybe you should be more like Hayate!

You are producer in training, probably 19 year old or 20, a student who guides students, but don't take it seriously.

>>535360957
>That means Letora's one clip away from blowing up too.
Wasn't her God Knows cover released right after the first new Haruhi MV was released? That would've been the best time to happen.

I feel like Cosmo just have a good plan. She started this month with streams that gets a lot of eyes on her (40K commemoration 3D dance stream, draw AS idols on the day of their live, birthday announcement stream where she needed 1000 concurrent viewers), uploading dance shorts every day likely up until her birthday and started to pander to Koreans (she did get that standalone/solo booth in an event there) by having real-time TLs. With relatively recent (OKP Cipher and V were released 2 months ago) and popular songs followed by holding streams almost daily, she's keeping the momentum going.

>>535363134

>>535360957
>it'll probably become rarer to see Cosmo dancing to random im@s songs
Unless they can use non-iM@S songs for their streams, Cosmo would probably keep on dancing to it if she holds another "Tries to get the dance choreo in 10 mins" challenge. That said, I do wish that she won't be limited to TD like last time.

>>535349754

>>535364946
>>535364709

>>535364531
That's more because the Imas Channel uploads the full TD MVs compared to the other games where it's usually clips. Also the camera is more choreography focused too I guess.

>>535363324
KotoneP...

wtf is a TD? tower defense? starter deck?

>>535365886
I was talking about Hime's imouto

this goes hard
https://litter.catbox.moe/w4t8ia.mp3

>>535364946
Why is she like this?

>>535365737
I thought SideM might work but I remembered those animated PVs are full so that won't work well with the time limit.

>>535366165
Ever been horny? Anna's like that 24/7.

Why are they like this?

>>535366165
Actually, she is not! Skynet just generated her like that.

>>535366360
So, when Kaho says she's always in climax from start to finish...

>>535363849
Cosmo went viral because of one short but it's the follow up shorts that are gaining her more followers because people see that she's consistently pumping out content they like. Letora should follow the same strategy. Sure, her cover didn't get the immediate impact she was wanted but if she keeps dropping shorts, eventually one's bound to hit. And when it does, it will trigger a chain reaction.
By the way, the clip account has already included Cosmo in 5 shorts. All she needs to do now is check out what other vtubers are dancing to, make her own version, and it's likely she will keep getting featured in their shorts while stealing the spotlight with her good model tracking.

>>535365927
TD means This Dick.
*unzips*

>>535366624
Why do you think she's always shouting?

>>535366165
RoboAnna is unhindered by things like moral decency and age of consent.

>>535366461

Since it's Natsuha's birthday I'll do her a solid and rub one out to her daughter Kaho.

>>535360294
alright but which one has smellier pits?

>>535366723

I think it's okay, she's basically just starting her vsinger career. All her bigger singer friends release MVs just like she's doing, and they've released dozens of them. But if you want to see 3D Letora singing, she could perform with real people, maybe other im@s VAs. But it needs to be an actual collaboration, not just Letora mogging them lol

According to their profile pages, it's Manaka who gets the most super chats and the most memberships. Not sure if it still holds up but, during their pre-idol days, Letora also receives higher amount of superchats while Cosmo tends to just have low amounts (getting a red superchat is rare for her). Makes sense that Cosmo comes from a well-off family (she mentioned her father drives her to the nearest station if she wakes up late).

Today's tribute comes complete with a summary of her P-SSR6, a fitting double popsicle to share, and some hastily setup merch (centered on a pull-up bar of course).
Much like the commu, it's also stupid hot here and the heavy rain has started. Funny how things happen like that.

Enjoy.

I think the difference in P-love between those two is that GK is a lot more unabashed in its portrayal of P-love whereas SC is a lot more subtle about P-love to the point where you need to follow someone's commus in multiple PSSRs closely to get hints of it.

156 - The Perfect "Me"

Ritsuko is raving about an AI app she found that can break down dancing videos and give advice on how to improve. She then shows Nao and Tomoka other things the AI can do, like generating live setlists. P then comes in with Karen and Azusa. Given her love of gadgets, Ritsuko is quite interested in this new AI technology. Regardless, the purpose of this meeting is to talk about Ritsuko performing a new song at the upcoming performance. She's particularly excited because wants to use AI to create the training menu.

So lessons start with the AI-generated plan suggesting a rather intense routine to build stamina, though they're totally worn out at the end of the day due to the weather conditions making things worse. As Ritsuko teaches the AI to consider these factors for next time, this leads to a conversation about whether AI idol lives will become a thing and replace them one day. This leaves Ritsuko deep in thought, as she isn't particularly confident in herself and believes that AI can create a perfect idol version of herself instead. She brings this idea to P to have an AI version of herself perform in the next live, which he immediately shoots down. Ritsuko persists and is confident he'll change his mind eventually.

Later that night, Ritsuko starts off a conversation with AI Ritsuko, who responds back confidently in her own voice as she goes on to keep training it. She shows off the AI model to the others the next day, who are impressed by now similar it is to the real thing. Ritsuko mentions the AI live proposal to have a perfect version of herself perform, but they seem uncomfortable with that. Ritsuko is confident though that P will agree once he sees the model, and goes off to show it to him. Despite doing a perfect rendition of Discord Area and handling the MC without issue, P still says no, because the fans come to the Theater to see the real imperfect Ritsuko.

>>535359735
>>535361502
Nice robomochis, thank you

>>535380876
P says to leave that subject to the side for now, and asks if she would like to be part of magazine gravure work the other idols are set to do with an outfit she likes. Ritsuko would like some time to consider it, so she'll give an answer next week.

That evening, she asks AI Ritsuko about whether she should accept, and it logically responds she isn't suited for such things and shouldn't take it. After saying Ritsuko's fans wouldn't like it, Ritsuko starts getting angry and decides to do it after all.

[Discord Area]

P receives the gravure data after the shoot and shows it to Ritsuko some time later. He thanks her for taking the job, and Ritsuko is glad she took on the challenge of something she's not good at, even if it wasn't the logical thing to do. P and the other idols say how nice Ritsuko looked in the outfit, making her realize that the one who understands her the most is actually...

That evening, Ritsuko tells her AI self that although she may be a perfect version of herself, it isn't her because only she knows what she wants to do. And she has P, who may understand her more than she does herself. The AI asserts that it is the one who understands Ritsuko the most, and that solidifies that it isn't her at all. She then KILLS it by erasing the AI version of herself.

Afterward, Ritsuko is receiving a boost of attention due to recent work. She asks P why he recommended her for that gravure work, and he said it was simply because he thought that outfit would look good on her. Ritsuko recalls P's words that he prefers the imperfect her and smiles, with him noting that that she has a relieved expression and that it's something that AI an of cannot express.

sc producer is a cuck! haha!

>>535380367
The idols ages are also much lower in GK so it makes sense why most of them are horny brats who tend to think that their producer has a crush on them.

>>535378501
he drew reika too
https://arca.live/b/mltd/145287344?p=1

>>535380367
I think the issue is simply that GakuP is essentially isolated into routes, so he can focus on one girl and only that girl. Meanwhile SC P is stuck on a harem route and can't actually commit. Essentially has to remain neutral romance wise, even if he is biased as fuck towards some girls like Madoka.

>>535380876
>>535380970
I wonder if this was just a cheeky way of making it clear that we shouldn't expect AI idols anytime soon.

>>535381839
But isn't that even worse? A lot of the P-love SCs are legal, which means it can take advantage of that aka ShinyP acknowledging their feelings and maybe even reciprocating a bit. But they haven't done that.

>>535381646
the gacha format prevents them being bolder about it because once you give people what they want they'll fuck off for good. although that's kind of happening anyway.

>>535380367
I mean, it's not just that. They pretty much doubled the intensity of P-love in GK. Which is really funny in retrospect because some people here predicted that this would be the first mixed gender branch full of shipping.

>>535382330

>>535382241

why do people lewd arisu so much?

>>535382704

Because she’s a anal retentive loli.

>>535382704
Loli that canonically wants an adult bf

>>535382559
I mean, it did also double the intensity of shipbait
It's just the effect of having bombastic LN comedy writing turned up to 11, probably coming from oreimoman first and foremost

>>535380970
>and he said it was simply because he thought that outfit would look good on her
Many such cases.

>>535382704
She's attractive and is somewhat of a little cunt.

Yams said they'd do a monitor again but maybe he was referring to last year.

Here's the more modest GKbooth....kinda sus they're showing the training clothes of the next gacha units.

>>535380876
This is the worst idea Ritsuko has ever had.

>>535380367
It shouldn't be a surprise that Oreimo man is a perfect fit for P-love in im@s but at the same time, I still find it surprising considering how he actually handled Oreimo.
In comparison, Takayama is such an oddball with his artsy direction. I find his inclusion of male fans fawning over the idols pretty weird too. ML had them but only in card art but SC includes them in the commus themselves like Hinana's potential boyfriend or Kaho's classmate who has a crush on her.

collab soon

Another obstacle is 283 is a fully fledged production company and SC is somewhat more serious about how they tackle the idol business, which means the writers probably also have to take romance bans into account. Paracolle Toru was only allowed to confess after graduating.

Okay, I was a bit facetious. It's really combination of
- Blue Archive getting more popular and taking over Animate
- Saki's tendency to analyze and make assumptions
- Blue Archive being seen as *the* gooner franchise. Sometimes, BL is used instead
So you have otaku-looking people entering and Saki louding greeting with "Welcome! The Blue Archive corner is that way!"
It's only pic related that's seems to be really salty about how Blue Archive has taken over their local anime store.

>>535390302

>>535390237

>>535390456

Even SideM is stepping out.

Blue Archive was astroturfed to hell and back. It has some nice designs, but even now I don't see why it's such a big deal.

>>535391919
Read the whole sentence, this isn't GK's first Comiket, it was around for last year's Winter Comiket (Summer too, but it was like 2 months old so it didn't count). But this year's it's a pretty dramatic increase and I'm sure it's the first time it has the most booths for IMAS.

>>535392072
The futa garbage was going to ruin that series. So glad futafags got btfo with the project dying.

>>535390174
Japanese women are usually super bald so it's no problem(See the VAs of Kana and Amana for example). That said, I think it's more because of the environment and their diet than genetics, as I've seen gaijin that work in Japan that have similar prominent 5heads

The simpler explanation is that people already had their doujin schedule planned out when GK came out and so it took about 2 Comikets for GK to hit the front of the line

>But this year's it's a pretty dramatic increase and I'm sure it's the first time it has the most booths for IMAS.
Please don't make statements like these without providing proof, you're triggering my autism and I really don't want to go look for old numbers.

What's the point of being this insecure when our franchise is healthy and doing better than ever?

Pin pong pang pong

Good news. Kotone's self esteem has gone up. We're 1/3 there.

Isn't it really only one branch that's doing well though?

>>535392161
I'm sure if you went back and looked, there were more Madoka doujins at the second or third Comiket after Noctchill released than there were at the first.

TLDR????
I mean, I've seen the fanart but like, was that thing supposed to have dickgirls in canon or something???

>>535392678
With how fast this is going, this may mean they'll save this for day 1 of Comiket then just play other MVs tomorrow.

No canon futa. A very small and loud group of futafags were trying hard to get a foothold on the franchise through fanart. They were gonna fail before the project was cancelled though. People weren't having their shit.

Good, futafags are disgusting.

Natsuha birthday card mini-summary

>Tonight Only
Natsuha is at a TV recording when the cast and staff announce a surprise birthday party for her (which P was also in on). Natsuha is thankful and eager to party, perhaps too eager as she gets absolutely shitfaced. The rest of the commu is simply P's quest to escort drunk Natsuha home, as she keeps nearly falling on her ass and starting conversations with vending machines and telephone poles. In a bit of unintentional drunken flirting, when P points out she seemed to be holding her alcohol fine at the party, Natty responds that she was holding back around other people, but she doesn't mind letting go now that it's just the two of them.
The next morning, a mortified Natsuha messages P to apologize profusely for the unsightly behavior. P plays it off, but still recommends her responsible drinking.

As with the rest of these birthday cards, it's just a short bit of fanservice. I do suggest listening to this one though because drunk Natsuha's voice lines are something.

>It's only pic related that's seems to be really salty about how Blue Archive has taken over their local anime store.
That was idolmaster's situation until GK, it has nothing to do with BA.
