Early May and Doggo Beach Edition

>Main Story postponed till 5th anniversary
>4.5 anniversary is GBC shilling
Remember when everyone bet their balls and uterus on Donuts treating D4DJ better?

test

>>1732951 (OP)
I can't post images so I couldn't make a new thread

>Main Story postponed till 5th anniversary
>https://d4dj-groovymix.jp/news/post-255
Did I not understand the post correctly? I read:
>本編のみならずメンバーエピソード
As them apologizing for events and card stories being skipped for some occasions, not unlike what they did during collab hell ~last year. Remember that earlier in the post (and the post last month where they said they were having issues) they were using:
>メインストーリーに向けてシナリオ
to describe the main story. The first part of the post implied that the main story would be starting after the 4.5th anni, unless, again, I am retarded and misread something.

Oh, it's back. Anyway, 2 or 4?

>>1733016
4 but I am a peakyfag so my opinion is biased.

>>1732990
Misread
JP digglers stated the main story is moving on the 5th anniversary.
MTL westerns are doomposting with worse.

>>1733016
Wait what the fuck you could get doggos from roll 5 pick 1? I wouldn't have needed to spend all those gems
F2P, pick 4
Tiering pick 2
>like unigay, pick 1

>>1733029
Thanks. I knew the MTL was gonna be extra shit this time because of the ambiguous terminology but while I am not a EOP I get caught up on keigo really fucking badly. Nip PR is an entirely different breed of weird.
Personally, I'm going to choose to huff copium that it's not going to be as bad as the notice made it out to be. Last month they said "event stories may need to be cut in the runup to 4.5th anni" and then literally nothing happened.

Just passed 1m points... pain

Did anyone beat growth peaky yet? The game literally wouldn't let me bring my actually good cards because they're all peaky ofc so I'm stuck trying to cobble together a misfit Rondo/Abyssmare/??? team out of scraps.

>>1733048
Quite a few people. You get a title. I suspect they bought the Growth items and went straight with picking the most movement

Oh finally got hit with the nyochio bus, I have been autoing since reset so that's 8 hours...?

I just broke T100... Still on the fence if I tier. I forgot how annoying it is, literally checking my phone every 3 minutes to do an auto run. It really kills my attention to do anything.

>>1733098
>autoing
ngmi
That aside yes tiering is hell. Even on EN for peaky white day I had to suffer severe consequences to do well.

>>1733114
I got 3rd in a collab event by autoing 20 hours a day. With only one card at extra training 1 on my cards while 1 and 2 had fully extra trained teams.
I'm thinking anniversary events will be more brutal. Maybe I'll just do 100 drinks a day, and all the special raids on the last day or two. So that's at least 300 more voltage to burn. Surely I end in top 100 with this plan

>>1733128
3rd on JP? That's unexpected but I guess the collabs do tend to score lower than regular ones. GL either way but tiering is still rough shit on the wallet.

>crunching numbers
Optimally I can get 55k every 5 minutes. Realistically I would die on day 2 if I tried doing this the whole event.
Technically if I did all my special raids, I should be in top 10.
However, I just noticed something. Do anniversary events not have "anniversary" as the title? Cause I'm checking the rewards and it shows Doggos... I'll just wait for another medley collab

>>1733139
It was a Medley so they tend to score higher, but I'm under the assumption most players think everyone is doing equal Multiplayer and special lives during the day. And since I was keeping up in Top 20 despite not doing any Medleys, when I dumped it on the second to last day, My score shot up from #15 to #1

>>1733141
>Do anniversary events not have "anniversary" as the title?
Might be because this is a half-anni. Not 100% because I've never bothered tiering an anniversary.

>okay last post
I lied and continued to play during dinner.
Just checked top 3, I could probably get up to third right now, but in that same time they will be getting more points for special raids, and I wouldn't be able to maintain top 3.
Looks like I really do need to start from Day 0 to have a chance at top 3.
My other top 3 title is very lonely...

>>1733029
>>1733042
I don't see any JP posters on X mentioning main story
the announcement didn't say that it is delayed or not

>>1732990
>>1732970
Here is a TL breakdown of the only sentence mentioning main story:
これまで、(Until now,)
4.5周年以降に(after 4.5 anniversary)展開予定のメインストーリー(planned-to-be-deployed main story)に向けて(for, towards etc)シナリオ(scenario, i.e. story)を準備しておりました(had been preparing)が(weak but, and, etc)、
>litetal: We had been preparing scenarios for main story planned to be deployed after 4.5 anniversary until now
より良い形で(in better shape)5周年を迎えるための準備に(in preparation for 5th anniversary)注力(focus)すべく(should)、
literal: as we should focus on preparing for a better 5th anniversary,
誠に勝手ながら、
while it is truly done without asking for our own convenience
5周年までの一部イベントにつきましては、
for some of the events until 5th anniversary,
イベントストーリーおよびメンバーエピソードを伴わない形式での開催とさせていただきます。
they will be held without event story and card stories.

It can either be a statement of fact that there have been 2 months without main story events, or that they are making the wait longer with added condition of story-less events. It is not a Japanese language problem but a general PR speech intepretation issue for schizoids.

The fact they didn't announce plans for main story on 4.5th anniversary points to the doomer victory>>1732990
though.

Praying for a future for D4DJ

>>1732970
I just wish GBC would retweet us...
instead our imouto ignores us

>>1733266
Adoption papers is still being signed. No word on the game yet.

Since we're back, let's do a roll call of who's left...

Shinobu made Kyoko the cake (not really, Esora's chef baked it but Shinobu put the toppings on it.)
Shinobu feeds Kyoko the cake. It is so cute Esora refrained from saying anything.

KyouShino bros, we are so back...

Holy shit growth is annoying now, 4 vs titles in the next 5 spaces. I mean thanks you get such a big boost for winning but it's time consuming when I need to burn the growth voltage to not let it cap

>>1733247
That was more or less how I read it, which is why I was confused by the doomposting tsunami from JP, but you're right that no roadmap or anything implies we got fucked over.
I would assume they'd wait until a weekly (monthly now I guess lol) stream to announce that kind of thing, but did they even announce when that will be yet? Last stream they basically threw their hands up and said "next one will be when we feel like it".

>>1733362
my niche ships are in shambles but happy for them after white day gave them nothing.

>daily blogging
dropped 100 ranks while I was asleep, but the daily special raid boosted me up 20 ranks

Considering how the 4th anniversary went I'm surprised at how stable it is

>>1733372
the next live stream will be held at Yokohama on a Friday soon...

>>1733247
>they didn't announce plans for main story on 4.5th anniversary
picrel is the main story for 4.5 anniversary

>>1733419
I don't really follow, can I just get a simple answer if we're dooming or chilling

>>1733420
He's trolling because those are GBC crossover songs.
>2 more weeks until we EoS for GBC gacha, etc.

>>1733414
thanks anon. Will hold out hope for good news even though it'll probably just be shilling for the unichord live.
>ticket: 3K Yen + 1 drink (600 yen)
Man no wonder nips were pissed last week lmao.

>>1733480
Is that a bad price?

>>1733581
I think they were pissed about the requirement to buy a drink. This was on 5ch though so it might have been bad-faith doomposting/trolling.

>>1733586
I always thought the drink was a requirement to skirt around some restrictions or taxes

>>1733588
Maybe I'm confused. Is DIGNITE being baked into the weekly stream broadcast again like they used to do for Diggler's High? That'd explain the drink requirement and would also make me confused as to why 5ch people were mad in the first place.

>>1733480
>>1733586
>>1733597
>>1733586
Do you even MTL? 5ch was talking about how the ticket was first in first served, but didn't start at promised 8PM, and when it was fixed, the official X announced it 10 minutes too late, meaning unless you keep refreshing and retrying you would potentially miss out on the front seats.
Drink ticket depends solely on the type of venue and it is not under Bushiroad or Donuts' control.
>>1733588
It depends on the license the venue got from the government. The concert venue one is harder to get so many opt to become a pub with performance attached, so they need to sell drinks.

>>1733625
>Do you even MTL?
No. I just didn't really care because the incessant whining on there was pissing me off too much to knuckle down and read it properly. Do appreciate the added context though.

>>1733629
it was pretty tame compared to some JP bushiroad fans on X
5ch was also not happy the dignite event calls more fan djs and only one seiyuu
they want Shuri/Nagisa new seiyuu for some reason

>>1733636
I saw the bickering about seiyuu Vs. underground DJs. Ironically after the event one guy was saying the underground DJs were better (if I had to hazard a guess, they probably forced tsunko to only play D4DJ tracks because of copyright bullshit).
I missed the banter about Shuri but wouldn't that just be fans wanting to actually see her IRL? I don't think Rondo's done anything since the recast and she seems to be doing a good job.

>>1733637
You can watch it in mixch fan club archive
I am pretty sure Tsunko played more non D4DJ songs than others
Even the clip she uploaded on X isn't in D4DJ game lol

I'm already regretting this, I'm over 300 special raids banked, how am I going to use them all? I need to replan my schedule

>>1733637
It is mostly a few Bushiroad fans not being used to be indie now without constant stream of stuff Kidani gave us... 5ch anons are actually saying that T7S gets story updates in terms of year as measuring unit these days so prepare for D4DJ to reach that point.
And some Assault Lily fans think fewer story events is an acceptable alternative to losing voiced story like they did.

Some JP fans on X are insane. It has turned from some events without story announcement to no story until 5th anniversary because no seiyuu has posted recording photos.

I quitted Assault Lily Last Bullet when they dropped voice acting.
It would be unthinkable for a content like D4DJ to do it with how much the characters are associated with the seiyuus. Also the writing will never be interesting enough to be presented without voice.

I also heard JP seiyuus are cheap to hire. Assault Lily Last Bullet did it away because they wanted to add a ton of characters from the existing doll lore.

https://x.com/MMMbluefilm/status/1916418327859388446

Donuts are obviously incompetent (literally, not for lack of trying), but imagine sucking Bushi's peepee this much

Would Ninners game save us or kill us?

According to Doggos, next year:

D4Fes in Universe
D4Fes in Cyberspace (already done once though)
D4Fes in Astral Plane
D4Fes in Hell

Choose one.

>>1733716
>two 14+ GBC songs in a roll
I am starting to doubt the GBC game will be a tap tap rhythm game.

Can they stop adding these fucking shill songs for their next game on the half-anniversary of all things. I'm not playing it, Donuts.

>>1733720
It's a fighting game

>>1733709
Cool now this MyGO& Ave Mujica fan has bullied our T7S sister into locking his account

>>1733723
Don't care, FC'ed both.
I am just glad that Haya-Coco are still alive and UniChØrd is finally given a Live and Doggo are yuri.

Oh it's happening!!! I didn't drop out top 100 from sleeping today.
Still need to figure out how to do this cause after today I'll have 400 special raids, and at an average 3 minute each run that's about 20 hours give or take. If the event ended on a weekend I would be okay to save them all for the last day but since it's not

>>1733813
ganbatte anon. I believe.
>>1733709
Man and I thought the doompost raiders on here + EN Twitter were bad. At least on here it's all mostly in good fun (I think)

Miyu-chan

cute

>>1733800
Yeah, well I don't expect a Unichord fan to actually care about the game's management.

>>1733701
I actually really like D4DJ's writing (IMO it has the best long-term plot out of any of its peers), but I also agree that if they seriously tried dropping Aimi/Mayn/Riho/etc. they'd basically be shooting themselves in the face with a double-barreled shotgun.

>>1733902
And what kind of fan are you?

>>1734092
A real one

Ending the day 5 ranks higher than usual. I'm not sure how I should take this. I really do how most people are using their special raids daily.

Now that the dust has settled, should Asai Eimi be renamed Akechi Eimi to better reflect what a treasonous snake she is? She did Shika dirty.

>>1734123
I once trolled a medley event on EN by hording all my tickets until the last few hour then played for like 9 hour straight to catapult from 10th -> 2nd. Good times.
Assuming that's your gameplan here as well.
>>1734218
I can dig it.

lol Wataru Watari was asking about the club items earlier.
Will he rank?

>>1734246
Who?

>>1734247
script writer for anime Ron Kamonohashi and The Magical Revolution of the Reincarnated Princess and the Genius Young Lady

Is he the same LN author who wrote the main campaign from Side Origin/Nova onwards or is that a different guy?

>>1734243
Nyes, I only like tiering in events with a stockpile of easy point gains. It makes it really hard to figure out who's actually where.
That said technically I'm ranked 9th with my current points if dumped. But I don't feel like dumping another 300 drinks. Especially since I'm falling behind the T10 upkeep as well as other kusoges.
I'll probably save 150 special raids for the final day in case of any sudden developments, but T100 should be all but given.

>>1733718
>D4Fes in Astral Plane
>D4Fes in Hell
Watch how the haunted hotel story is there to set up a supernatural arc for the next main story. Like how the VR zombie story set up the Lumina/Pumina sci-fi arc.

>>1733718
D4Fes in Lesbian brothel

>>1733718
I'll take D4FES in Universe. I still want my DJ Space Opera.

Imagine the Takeshita Group reverse engineering an alien spaceship that crash landed on Earth then Miiko brings it to school

Which reminds me that we still have that plot hook where three corporations got access to Lumina's AI and gave her a body. No way they did it for free just because Miiko asked for it. Surely they are taking data from Lumina including the ones about Hayate and Kokoa

>>1734401
Rich Girl heel turn could be peak fiction.

>>1733709
At this point
Bushi was the one keeping Groovy Mix moving
We still don't know what the fuck EgoEgg future will be on top of everything
>But le incel anime collab reeee
Now we do not have anything to look forward at all lol
>>1734248
>Missing oregairu
Picrel is just female 8man
with "I hate nice girls" (Rinku) monologue and stuff

>>1734570
Ridiculous, is Doggo Bushi too?

The only thing Bushi was doing that Donuts isn't is selling CDs and that is because Bushi was still offloading their planned End of Service memorial albums last month.

>Game's art and writing: continue to improve
>Gameplay: continued improvements and new ways to play
>Lives: Donuts held Abyssmare, Lyrical Lily, Happy Around, with UniChØrd upcoming
>Streams: going back to Live stream next month
>DJTIME: first Diggler's High, then EGOEGG, now Fan Club DJ events
>BD: D4Fes Crossbeat
>Digital release: under our very own DD Record label
>Merch: Doggo acrylic stands, and Happy Around dolls Bushi for some reason refused to sell but immediately shat out for MyGO and Ave Mujica

The only benefits of Bushi would be TCG cards, and their Palverse figures (which took them until Re:Live EoS to split out)

>>1734570
Look forward to Donuts continuing to shill their new FOTM game in DJs.

>>1734608
Toei is going to have to buy more views than usual with how long they've waited.

Doggo Ep2
Eimi works up the courage and goes to the student council duo to negotiate for money. The duo gives her a brown envelope, but it has a pair of chopsticks inside. Eimi is pissed inside, but the duo apologize for the joke and say there will be a bit of money, and invite Eimi to eat with them.

Back with the Doggos, Bell is happy about the money and Date chan is happy that Eimi finally has friends to eat with in the class. Shika copes saying it is whatever but Eimi says she will eat with Shika normally from tomorrow on anyway. Shika asks if there is anything else, and Eimi complains about having nothing to talk about during the lunch and ending up saying things like feeling unhealthy and going to chiropractors. Date-chan is empathic and says how high cholesterol and diabete health check-up results are such classic talking points. Bell says that is for middle age and older people.

>>1734659
You forgot Ep1 paisen

>>1734659
Shika steers the conversation back to the upcoming event, and Eimi says they will perform after the "I have something to say" corner. The duo also asked for a Live that is suitable for comforting and supporting the students. Eimi describes the music direction in a way that reminds Bell of Merm4id. Shika says that is opposite of Doggo, but Date chan says they are matched in the bad public order department. Eimi agrees that Date chan single handedly wins against Merm4id in terms of that. They talk about meeting clients' requests as pro and asks Datechan's opinions. Date chan says keep being yourself to the death or do whatever it takes to survive are both valid, but that choosing one is important and asks Shika which to choose. Shika says she doesn't know yet and Date-chan says right now is good time for trying either and even if she fails, Date-chan can do something. Shika says at least for the upcoming Live she will keep tech sharp and composition rounded, for this is a commission job. Eimi praises Shika for facing forward but Bell goes further and says she is crying how much Shika has grown. Eimi jabs that Bell is acting like a mom, and Bell starts to offer Shika sweets which Eimi says that is more like a grandmother. Date chan starts to talk about how lucky the times are and that sweets used to be hard to come by, so she is called ancestor by Eimi. Shika asks for a 2nd candy so Eimi complains she is being too much of a grandchild.

Doggo ep1
The teacher calls in Shika because she didn't turn in her career plan. The teacher asks if Shika wants to go pro and imagines it would be with a record label or with a online streaming channel. Shika explains she is aiming more underground than those. The teacher suggests that Shika consults Bell, including plans for higher education. In any case the teacher says it is just a survey and isn't anything serious. Shika is still bothered over one question on it, but she rejects Bell's offer to help citing the survey is nothing serious.
Eimi's 2 recurring classmates approach her and ask the Doggo to perform a beach night live on a school study trip for 3rd year students - 2nd year students are responsible for organizing the trip and providing amneties. Eimi breaks 4th wall and questions why the 2 classmates are now suddenly on the student council.

>>1734666
>>1734662

Eimi relates the request to the other members back at the doghouse after wrestling the dialogues back from relationship advice. Bell is worried about doing it for free, but Eimi tries to convince them that they get to play at the beach. Plus once the 3rd year students enter private universities and become useless humanities majors, they will become the target audience for clubs like Doghouse. Still Bell doesn't want to do it for free even for publicity, and Date chan agrees that if there is no money exchanged, there is no responsibility between the 2 parties. Eimi agrees to negotiate for some money, after Bell suggests writing it up as expense reimbursement instead of appearance fee.
Shika excuses herself after denying it is Kyoko time, and explains it is for the career plan. Eimi jokes that she would write becoming Kyoko's hair, but Shika says that would be creepy and leaves. Eimi and Date-chan become worried over her sane reply, and Bell suggests the career plan thing is taking a toll on Shika. Eimi wonders if it is not the time for the beach then, but Date-chan says it would actually help by doing some music related job and getting some small taste of success. Eimi jokes that it sounds like a shady talent agency trying to lure someone in, but Bell is instantly convinced to do it for free if it comes to it.

https://tsumanne.net/si/D4DJ

futaba actually talks about stories unlike 5ch who only talk about gameplay

Start to worry that Date-chan is Haya-Coco's daughter from the future.

>>1734579
no anon you don't understand we lost like 2 original songs in JP EoS is IMMINENT!!!! Only if D4DJ is killed off will Bandori ever reclaim the throne from prosekai. IT JUST WILL OKAY!?

>>1734670
Thanks anon this looks like it could be a good resource
imagine being able to support multiple threads, even if they're all relatively dead. Must be nice

FC'ed Peaky Force incidentally during weekly tour while trying to FC the new, sad GBC song (eventually GFC'ed it). It is all thanks to Haya-coco by the way.

>>1734686
This anti-bushi poser descending upon the thread like a locust as soon as the owner of the IP changed is the most pathetic thing. Sorry freak but this will always be Bandori clay.

Pretending anyone still cares about Sekai was a pretty good punchline to be fair

No voice for Saori until further notice

Himarin... I will miss her

>>1734933
>this is completely normal in T7S! ( the game that's been dead for half a decade) stop complaining!

>>1734939
How long did it take for the other DJs to get recast? The until further notice sounds like they haven't even held auditions yet.

>There won't be new main events because there is no new voice for Saori yet
So Merm4id upcoming live will be just 3?

>>1734941
>>1734939
>>1734940
Anon who watched some secret producer stream after last Merm4id live said in the last thread that the Merm4id P was mind broken over the retirement and said he would only start to think about recasting after March 31th.

>>1734957
I would too, I can't imagine anyone else as Saori

actually is this the first recast since NVs?
will they have the new VA redo the VOs or will only new NVs get the new VO and older ones keep the old VO

Yep I was right, SP CoA cannot get 60k. The Rave versions should be able to but you'd need 8 copies to max the passive.
Lynx Eyes gets 59789 and 59784

>>1734939
same thing (no voice lines) happened with Ibuki and Rei. I don't think the recast took as long but like >>1734957
said M4's P dragged his feet on starting recasting.
Besides the doomposters were having everyone believe we weren't getting events or stories at all anymore.

>>1734670
Thanking you again for this anon. Nice to see a JP enclave where the discussion is generally more positive although my favorite nip poster is still the guy on 5ch who can't get the weekly tours to work properly.

Kokoa: It gets sleepy when it gets warm. Maybe I should take a nap at home sometimes.
Hayate: May is the best, having so many holidays. Because Kokoa can always stay at home

Ep3
Eimi and Shika are amazed at the setup of the venue at the beach. Bell points out it is being used for professional beach events. Eimi is excited to go playing at beach and quickly ends the inspection.
However, Eimi is bummed at the amount of people for an off season. Shika agrees, and Eimi praises her cute swimsuit. Shika says it is whatever but Bell takes the credit proudly. Eimi is also suprised at Bell's frilly cute swimsuit, thinking she would definitely wear school swimsuit instead. Bell explains they were bought out of the expense for the event. Date-chan comes over through the crowds like Moses. Her sexy swimsuit was also selected by Bell but Bell is like whatever. However, Bell explains that any clothes look good on Date-chan so she spent a lot of time thinking over it. Eimi is suprised that Shika isn't the one Bell frets over the most, but it turns out that Bell just gets Shika every clothes she thinks may look good without thinking much. Eimi breaks 4th wall and complains to the developer that she doesn't get new clothes, and Bell replies in PR talk of customer service. Eimi asks Bell to choose for her next time as well, but Bell says it is also difficult because everything looks the same on Eimi. Date-chan consoles Eimi that everything looks cute on her using a 2ch meme. Bell follows up by saying Eimi works hard and her atmosphere is cute. Shika says Eimi is cute as long as she doesn't open her mouth. Bell suggests Eimi stops breathing since she trash talks as easy as breathing.

>>1735443
At the beach, Shika suggests playing volleyball because Kyoko did it privately once in America. Eimi says it is creepy that Shika knows about that, and Shika defends herself saying it is normal to recall the event since the geography is similar after seeing the photo uploaded by the muscled one. Shika suggests recreating the photo with acrylic stands, and Eimi is trying to figure out who the muscled one is. Bell is relieved that Shika is talking about Kyoko again.
They play rock paper scissors chaotically with each girl using a different regional variant to determine the team - Bell and Shika vs Eimi and Date-chan. Bell serves first and yells "die!!!". Bell team get 8 points and when she tries to count Eimi team's score, Eimi tries a classic Rakugo joke and fails.
Eimi suggests doing surfboard yoga next. Date-chan says that is popular with young people now and yoga lets you connect with universe without the need to get high. Shika thinks it could be fun but Eimi suggests taking photos for SNS. Shika then says that is no fun, but Eimi says it is fun to pretend to live a full life only on SNS, plus you get likes. Bell says they only have float rings, and no money for surfboards. Eimi complains that that would have neither surfing nor yoga, gives up and leads everyone into the water to play.

>>1735447
The worst part is there's two different times Kyoko played volleyball in America and given how insane read: just like me fr fr Shika can be talking about either of them lmao.

>>1735453 (me)
how insane she is* IDK why I had a stroke halfway through typing that.

>>1735453
Kyoko lore anon, I only remember the one with Yuka's sister... I think that is the swimsuit banner event? What is the other one?

>>1735724
End of D4FES USA. Everyone played volleyball (except for Abyssmare of course, because well, you know...)

I still have 390 special raids to do... Why does it take longer than 3 minutes to do?

Towa sleeps a lot because she stuffs herself with sweets like a true foodie.

KyoShino putting in overtime lately (seasonal dialogue + birthday dialogue)

>>1735836
How'd your rank play out anon? Did you manage T10 in the end?

>>1735980
No T10 required playing daily, I couldn't handle it. I think I'm losing my autism. Although, I was on track for it but decided to not do it, essentially 100 cans per day will get you there (with a full doggo team)
I like to sit at T100 since I think T50 titles are dumb looking. But I'm not going to stress out too much on it.
Unless I suddenly die, I think it's impossible to fall out of 100

>>1735994
Nah I get it. I can only T10 push when it's peaky personally and even then only on EN because it's easier. Gratz anyway though. As long as you hit your personal goal you should just be happy with that.

>>1732951 (OP)
I'm an Eimifag now.

i was sold on eimi when she told me to skip the first story and collect the gems...

donuts... stop with the drinks
I still haven't gotten under 300 yet...
That said, my ranking is dropping pretty fast today, looks like everyone else is dumping.
I guess from a F2P, today would be the best time to get raid titles since, majority of people trying would be in the special raid hell

>>1736279
ganbatte anon.

Doggo Ep4
Doggos return to the inn and meet the 3rd year students. 3rd year Student A says she is only getting a C. 3rd Student B says C is fine at this point with room for improvement, and for herself it would have meant 3rd choice school. Student C says it is 1st choice school for her. 4th student says she is finished if not getting into a public school. The students see Date-chan and flocks over, asking her for advice. Date-chan recommends various herb tea with plenty of sugar, and eventually starts only recommending sugar. Eimi points out that they use keigo, meaning Date-chan is senior to them and repeated 2 years. Shika points out Eimi also use it to the same year student, and Bell mocks Eimi saying that using keigo doesn't necessarily mean respect, it can also express distancing, in keigo. Eimi says that is because she has communication disorder (socially awkward), which reminds her that she has a meeting with the class reps coming up.

>>1736545
When Eimi returns from the meeting, only Date-chan is in. Talking about 3rd year students seem to be having it hard, Date-chan asks Eimi her plan for future. Eimi says she filled the form without being too serious, and asks Date-chan. Date-chan plans to study Law and becomes a Diet member, so that she will no longer worry about legality as she is the one making laws. Eimi is worried how serious Date-chan is, and says she is going to study humanities at a private school that is not too bad as to become a minus on her resume.

>>1736546
Date-chan says that is no dream plan, and Eimi says she looked up on music and entertainment schools but feel they are pointless. No famous maker porudcer comes out of those departments. Date-chan says she is too opinionated. Eimi explains to Date-chan that companies would rather hire complete green wagies with energy to work in anyway the company see fit, than people who learned some knowledge that may be difficult to handle. In any case work experience can only be earned by actually working... Date-chan admits more producers are failed performers, than succeeded performers who career up. Eimi wonders if she would be the former, which Date-chan says that it is yet to be decided. Eimi muses about being a succesful performer, but Date-chan explains that she meant Eimi may not be able to find a job.
Date-chan concedes that Eimi is suitable for becoming a producer. By which she means the type that only shows up at the stard and end of recording, and then only goes to after party and golf. Eimi questions if this kind of old media producers have long been purged. Date-chan says they are endangered, but still exists, and sometimes the DNA is still inherited. Date-chan then goes on a tangent about foolish producers who work to death. They have neither money or connection, but like the artists so much they break their body and sell their soul. Eimi watches Date-chan's rare young looking face looking out from the window, and wonders if she was talking from experience and how much it was real. Not wanting to ask, Eimi instead jokes about how music industry sounds like hell. Date-chan laughs and says Eimi is interesting, and assures her that on a whole the industry is normally wholesome. That doesn't help at all, Eimi concludes.

Doggo ep5
Bell and Shika actually came back from buying drinks but found it hard to enter the room when Eimi and Date-chan were having the serious talk. The two head out to the beach. Shika says Eimi is actually thinking a lot about her future. Bell tries to find words not insulting to describe Eimi, ending up calling her cautious. Shika admits she is also still thinking over her own future, for she knows her goal is music, but doesn't know if she should go to universities or vocational schools, work through record companies or streaming platforms. Bell says she understands her feelings as there are too many options and even the defination of "pros" is blurry these days. Shika says she also worries if she can continue after becoming a pro. Bell concurs that becoming pros is just the start - lots of people either get satisfied or lose motivation after becoming pros and simply disappear. Shika wonders if Date-chan is one such case. If Date-chan couldn't do it, then there is no way she can. Bell says they will have to wait until Date-chan wants to talk about it. Bell plans to study Business and Management in college. Shika saya it fits her. However, Bell says it is hard - there are not many schools that also let you take courses in other departments especially Videos and Designs. Shika is suprised, but Bell says those are necessary in order to struggle together with Shika for their whole life. Shika is stunned speechless, so Bell is pouty since that was what Shika asked for before. Shika apologies saying she was just wondering what Bell will do with music once she go to college. Bell says of course she won't quit, since the Doggos have the Doghouse to revive, and she has Shika to walk the life together too. Bell assures Shika that she will earn money to keep Shika fed. Shika laughs saying she is not Himo (gigolo), and they will earn money together.

>>1736613
Shika says she is surprised that non art or music schools have videos or design departments. Bell says humanities and IT departments have such courses, and education department has music courses. Shika is surprised, and Bell says the syllabus looks fun, with pop culture study, stage play theory etc. Shika says hearing that makes her interested in going to college too, and Bell says she has recommended ones for her, and right now they can even go together. Shika worries that her grades are not good enough for Bell's choices, but Bell says she can tutor her STEM, Eimi can teach her humanities, and Date-chan chemistry... Shika points out it should be English instead. Bell says dirty English filled with slangs is not useful for exams... instead the Doggos should work hard together, even Eimi who likes to pretend she doesn't study. Shika agrees that Eimi is that type of students, but she wonders how Date-chan knows anything since she actually doesn't study. Bell suspects Date-chan has access to Akashic Record. Shika says sasuga DJ.

>>1736615
Bell replys not that kind of record, and realizes that when Doggos get together they just get sidetracked without making any progress like right now. Shika concurs, then realizes talking nonsense, laughing together, having meaningless meetings and doing lives until they are grannies is her goal in life. Bell working on abacus, Date-chan dozing off, Eimi saying she has a plan - Bell protests that she doesn't use abacus but Shika shuts her down and says it is the imagery that is important - that she wants to be together with everyone forever, and that is why she wants to become a pro. Shika says it is her selfish desire, and asks others, like Bell, what she thinks. Bell again says she is getting angry now, and tells Shika not to keep confirming with her, since she has made the decision long ago. Shika defends herself saying they haven't talked about it in the context of becoming pros. Bell threatens her again, and Shika apologizes that being with Bell forever is irrelevant to the question of becoming pros, just that she haven't thought about it in the new context. Bell says she forgives her and asks to shake hands to make up. Then Bell says they will shake hands for taking care of each other forever, but Shika says that is not a handshake but a hug.

Rank 30, for only grinding half the event it's alright.

>>1736616
I like these summaries because sometimes I don't have time to watch them, that said I'm pretty sure hanagarden still "translates" the whole storyon YouTube. I ran into them a couple of times while grinding.

Does Wataru Watari have a college age kid or something

I wonder if all the talk about future plans means anything for whatever this supposed main story update is going to be. There's a decent chunk of the cast that are 3rd years right now + the college crew.

>>1733724

>>1736663

>>1736776

>>1736871
>still think it would only happen to collab, seasonal (festivals) and maybe the remaining reverse set
That was my thought too but getting the actual confirmation that things are still going to mostly be normal is nice.

>>1736943
Was it? I thought 69 was the stream number or something.
It's honestly hard to keep tracks

Peaky growth was easy, going to go again and use Jenny Esora duo
since I may have groovy disc'd jenny from an earlier tiering event

>>1736944
It's steam #69 but it's being held at an IRL location as >>1736887 was mentioning. Probably because they're mixing it with DigNITE or something (not 100% sure on this as I've been busy/not keeping up lately). Usually when they do IRL events if you go to the physical location or use apps to artificially set your location to the venue you get in-game rewards. I thought that's what this banner was but I might be way off.

Guess it'll be another year without coomer friendly lily cards

I started playing with cut ins again.
Doggo lines are so quiet....

>Kurumi imagines Haruna as a vassal's daughter to her Arisugawa princess
What do the gremlins mean by this

>>1736808
>>1736811
Turns out Rinku and Maho show up...
Rinku, the original African lady Samurai?

>>1737293
Haruna being poorfag by Arisugawa standards

>>1737298
Miyu outranks Kurumi as she is the daughter of the shogun... Miiko is just the daughter of some doctor though.

>>1737245
I like cut-ins. I wish I was good enough at the game to play higher-level stuff with them still on.

That was brutal, I thought I had to farm chara disks until end of the year to clear this (I might have to for ET4 but that's for later)

>>1737226
This Miiko makes me coom from the heart. Precious.

>>1737415
Lovely!

So during the peaky growth, make sure you land on golden present, otherwise you can miss rare stamps

>>1737415
ET dupes look like cost an extra ticket so it might take 15 runs to get and ET4 a peaky. 60 runs total for the whole set.
(But if it's actually doubling for each USB...)
It would actually be 31 runs for each ET4 peaky

Wait I never noticed, but you can't use peaky for peaky growth

>>1737462
>>1737455
Hence
Some people think they will probably add a new map as late as 5th Anniversary, otherwise you can only use PKPK in the circle map

>>1737297
And all 4 PKPK ninjas...
Everything is connected...

>>1737480
The infinite map isn't a circle (well everything is a loop) it's not the same circle as last time. I went ahead and spammed that with doggos since I didn't want to use items or lose progress on my pkpk

Do peaky growth cards have stories?

>>1737512
yes

>another doggo song
>another song where the existence of a full version is revealed only through a lyrics page
donuts please... release them...

>>1737748
Someone mentioned earlier that T7S is getting a physical compilation album soon. I imagine DJs will be next.
Personally, I'm just hoping they don't forget about the instrumentals, although I doubt we'll get them.

>>1737766
I just checked, it is a 70+ tracks 6 disc compilation for songs released under T7S's own music label since 2021... Will we have to wait until 2028?
On the other hand, in January they actually had another CD of instrumental tracks by a guy.

>>1737053
No Dignite attached, just a regular stream with live audience. Photon Maiden had one last year too but it was recorded with audience on a weekend. Yura and Temma's will be live streamed with live audience.
The fact it is on Friday instead of Wednesday and how Donuts are calling the on-site event "Live Stream Broadcast Limited to Fan Club" are also causing confusions whether it will be live streamed on Friday on YouTube. Even some Japanese fans thought it will be limited to fan club only.

>>1737804
I thought the stream was subs only as well lol.

Donuts are only uploading full versions when the unit has a live coming up
maybe we will get a mini Doggo live with Igoma

>>1737804
Thanks for clarifying. There goes getting my hopes up for anything relevant outside of seiyuu fluff.

>>1738287
>>Expected to be added to the game
Did others ask for new units or something? I thought the general consensus was that there were already too many, especially in nipland.

>>1738289
I asked, and I cared for eggs

>>1738290
I mean I'm happy for you and happy for eggs because I also liked eggs and was sad that they got rugpulled by 2 VAs leaving, but peaky losing more screentime is gonna be rough.

I still belive bushi is still helping donuts on handling D4DJ
Because most the decisions they have been doing so far is what western d4twt have crucified Bushi for kek

>>1738292
Wait two? I only remember hearing about one. Was this during our downtime or something?

>testing thresholds for Peaky Growth
I'm at the last node 500k VS

This is my third attempt at this...

Didn't pass, off by 11k score. I think I'll need 2 more fails before passing.
I think it heavily depends on the song too since 80% is shorter in duration

>You actually get 0.02% on non-support card

>>1738289

though they went and cast some big seiyuus with doggos

>>1738294
Westoids only like m4 and rondo's music because they can't into Japanese EDM so egg's music will probably play well there, at least.

>>1738351
>cheaper with their own slaves than with bushi slaves?
touche anon. Given egoegg's gimmick is that they're basically underground niche idols (hence the open tryouts last time + this time) they're probably cheap to keep on the books. Easier to get venues for too since they can just restart their activities in smaller live houses/indie circuits.

>>1738316
I cleared mine with this, only at 426k total with ET1 CoA support. You can do it anon.

>>1738355
It has to be with the 80% skill timing then, I've cleared it with Doggos with 60%, and 80% rondos, but my rondos are super buffed compared to my lilies
Honestly it might be a strat to just team swap at the end node

>>1738356
Might be, some songs definitely give better results, maybe around 100k swings in total result. I had to resort with monotype, I could have just used my Esoran for the other units. However, if they put type contraband in the future, I might be royally fucked.

Is not that it's difficult I thought sheer power of a team comp could clear it.
But looking at your comp it does seem to be skills play a bigger factor than I had previously thought

>>1738360
>contraband
considering pkpk is restricted this format it's likely groups in the future, so if you have two good teams to use then it's good

>Two Hayates in a row
Never too many of romantic airhead.

Kokoa sloppy kissing ASMR?

We went from complaining about too many songs back then to complaining about too many units now
Donuts should randomly remove one unit from EN every 6 months

I just hope they deliver the yandere yuri

riaru

>>1738608
more like ayumi

>>1738573
They should just remove Unichord

They should add more unigay events

just make every unit as gay as UniChØrd

>>1738618
seethe more

>>1738630
If they did this I'd unironically like unichord more. Most of my beef with them is that they get special treatment by virtue of having the only real couple and lumina is less of a character and more of a walking plot device, but whatever

>>1738630
No we need one group that's straight, an entire cast making jokes doesn't work without a straight man

>>1738647
Merm4id can stay straight.

>>1738647
Aren't L.M.O the token straight unit ?

>>1738647
no fuck off

>>1738707
Anon, even with cute girls doing cute things you need some response. A story is not interesting without them. At your point you don't even need the story, just fan art will do for you

>>1738351
yeah, the doggos have some big names, which makes it a little weird that the eggs attend the same school... unless donuts have the budget to bring them back in every once in a while...

I will fund donuts

My doggos score higher than my green lilies...

>>1738715
I think it's more likely the opposite will happen, with eggs being a 1-2 events a year sideshow and not main characters. Would fit more with the profiles they were originally given when they rolled out the first time.

>The bandori vtubers announced their 4th live
>And NONE of their songs are on the game nor they are planned as an addition to it.
EgoEgg big problem was to be too separated from D4DJ.
In contrast to the bandori vtubers who appeared on official streams despite they are not in the game and had the seiyuus shilling them among the bandori audience.
On top of the lack of content for a long time before their first MV was ever uploaded.
The eggs were on their own despite they were hyped as part of the D4DJ project.
Them to be part of the game implies non one had a proper direction for them since the beginning compared to the bandori vtubers.

>>1738831
Their direction was clear, just not to EN audiences. They were supposed to just go around local underground idol clubs in akihabara/etc. to drum up brand awareness. They were originally blatantly stated to be live-only. Whether that's a good idea or not is extremely debatable, although given how divided the JP fanbase is over doggos + unimare, eggs not being in the game was probably a knee-jerk reaction to the notion that the game is over-crowded.
All of that being said I have no idea what the reason is for the about-face. Maybe people asked for them on the surveys? The last few (that weren't about collabs) specifically asked for opinions on adding new units.

EoP keep saying the eggs were announced as live only when in reality they said "centered around live" with clauses back in the 1st audition for the girls to be in anime (lol) and games, plus the unit was literally called groovy mix trainee unit, not d4dj trainee unit.

Reminder that UniChØrd didn't get any regular solo event between Jan 2024 and Feb 2025

our favorite mom is doing it again

>>1738996
love that baker/cosplayer like you wouldn't believe.
Also; apparently JP got a survey again.

God damn it. I had an even number of gems then I clicked receive all on gift box, now I have an extra gem

Oh it's not as bad as I thought it would be to ET4 peakys

>>1739060
Yeah that doesn't look nearly as miserable as Rave Hags.

https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSddTgZFVndYHr-YLdFyKy1Lx5d7imcmugbZEw47hVQGtkLc6Q/viewform
For any of you that don't play JP (just MTL your responses)

>>1739117
What is the point if you don't play JP
The survey is exclusively about the new Growth mode etc

>>1739117
It's too hard

>>1739378
Because EN is probably getting it next month and they never get surveys.
Anyway, Unichord stream is tomorrow, right?

>reverse UniChØrd event with story
wtf d4djtwt will riot

>The Shiunji Family Children

>>1739495
I never know any of the comedy harem of the month. I am getting old.

fruits zipper is one of the biggest "made it" chika idols right now

>>1733597
anon was prescient
next month it will be on Saturday with Shinobi seiyuu also performing in Dignite

>>1739501
Based on the pattern I guess this means Peaky's getting the next IRL live after Unichord and Merm4id's.
Uni reverse is next gacha.

>>1739517
Feels like the game event is more aligned with stream hosts.
so next month being Esora and Shinobu seiyuus point to PKPK reverse towards end of month
As for live, Tsumu seems convinced Photon will get one soon back in January Merm4id live. I suspect PM will get one, then Rondo later this year.

>>1739496
EOPs were wrong about "no event stories EVER AGAIN!!!" at least.

It's Chuchu-sama's birthday!!!!!

>>1739581
Cry about it

I can see why westoids are malding at the shiunji collab (kek).
But why the fuck are they malding at Fruits Zipper?
First, their audience have more females than D4DJ (And LL with Bandori combined) audience in Japan. And westoids have been crying D4D is fod the girls and shits. So now more girls will play Groovy Mix even if it is to try out.
Lastly, even from Bushi days, Groovy Mix is build to work with collaborations over solo content.

>>1739590
What's the ratio of gamers in the musical gacha games?
I have to assume prosekai has the most females, but who comes second?

>>1739496
Doomer anons
EOP were SURE Donuts would stop the collaborations with "incel" anime shows; More solo songs; Adult units to be on the forefront; Retcon unimare; No more collabs oriented events; Make everyone gay and Aoi trans; Collabs only with LGBTQ+ shit even if no one knows about them; No swimsuit cards for the minors and romantic cards for the adults.
And yet here we are kek
Bushi is still with D4DJ but as advisors

>>1739593
Enstars has all the girls bagged

>>1739595
I think the part of the post-turnover era I'm most disappointed in was my own disproved notion that the endless Unichord shilling came from Bushiroad. Forget all your the other nonsense twittoid talking points I just wanted hags back and focus to return to the OG6.

>>1739606
>all the other nonsense* Jesus today's been a day.

>>1739606
>the endless Unichord shilling
That did not happen.

>>1739595
You really don't care about this game if you want to see the girls slurp cocks in events, traitor.

Reverse Hayakoko cards are straight

>>1739610
I think you have a crazy idea of what goes on in event stories.

The reverse UniChØrd synopsis from the live stream: It was raining. Pumina and friends were doing maintenance on Lumina's body when another dreaded thunder came.

>>1739633
If they kill off lumina and permanently replace her with pumina I will take back every bad thing I have ever said about Unichord.

How come UniChØrd and Rondo get to have 5 members in their unit

>>1739677
>nyochio = 5th member of hapiara
>robo-nyochio = 5th lily
>Dennojo = 5th peaky
M4 and abyssmare getting robbed.

>>1739626
The Matoslave collab left western d4twt mindbroken
There was no dicks
But making Maho a stand-in male and the others girs lust for her as if she was a male was mind-raping experience.
Even morese when it was stated at the start of the event the story was not in-universe. Those words made western d4twt go feral.

>>1739714
Don't forget hayakokofags being mad that Hayate was interested in.someone else than Kokoa...

This is good though, gay people generally aren't monogamous.

romcom collab not having stories may be a blessing in disguise? they struggled to write most collab stories anyway (aside from needy girl overdose). I just wish we get some yuri collab with stories again. Sad Wataten was from the no story era, and Sasakoi didn't have an event. At least Assault Lily had a story but it was focused on seiyuus. They need to introduce dimensional travel without relying on dreams.

>>1739886
*except* from needy girl overdose

Imagine a Gwitch collab where Shino and Michiru are fighting over Gunplas and later in Extreme VS while they make fun of Muni for not knowing about MS despite drawing lots of SuleMio.

We need more SEED Destiny songs/covers

Shiho arc was highly praised
unless you hate yuri

>>1739915
I don't care about your circlejerk. What's boring is boring.

I think a Princession collab is could happen since we already have Symphogear and Aipri songs. Probably closer to when the show is done though.

>>1739920
I am just recommending Sasakoi to everyone here who likes story. It has an interesting story.

>>1739963
For this season NinKoro has a joke triangle and a gay couple so 5 main/recurring characters in total. They were not shy about killing DJs in the short anime so...

WataTabe has only 3 girls. I love it but tough luck.
WataNare is a standard harem romcom so it is familiar to D4DJ lol.
Personally I want KimiShinu most. It has exactly 4 main girls as well.

Other shit are still far out like Moon on a Rainy Night.

>>1739968
Why are you this obsessed with other people from other sites? Rent free go back.
Sorry I care about the characters.

Still a cute universal girl.

>>1739974
Come on, anon. Real fans don't care about the characters, music or story. Real fans care about sales numbers, EoS, event distribution ratio, and fapping.

>>1739973
>Personally I want KimiShinu most. It has exactly 4 main girls as well.
I don't think collab with dead characters is a good omen.

>>1740062

>>1739974
>I care about the characters
Going Dungeon Meshi fandom on the fictional characters is not caring, is jealousy on the author's (Donuts & Bushi) creations.
Like some people still on denial Lumina is an AI turned Android and not someone with body dysphormia hiding under a vtuber or those people still mad at Hayakoko they are the canon gay couple.

interesting observations

>>1739930
Symphogear was because of Airi seiyuu Nana Mizugi though
Aipri connection makes sense

I want Kimi to Idol Precure and Mahou Precure 2 collabs though

>>1740677
>Nana Mizuki
Come to think of it, Lynx Eyes got a live once (or twice?) back in the good-old-days but Scarlet Canary never did. I wonder if Nana wouldn't play ball for some reason.

>>1740888
Nana performed at DJFes All In. She is probably too expensive.
Raychell's in CoA/Merm4id Producer's agency.
Lorewise Lynx Eyes were active professionally so I guess there is also that.

>>1741079
Yeah I knew CoA as a whole was at the D4FES but the set was Lynx Eyes -> all 4 hags.
I'm just surprised that even at that early stage Bushi wasn't willing to pony up the money to wheel her out on stage. Given how popular she is you'd think it would have drawn numbers.

>>1741098
Wasn't she having a baby around that time?

>>1741150
Good catch:
wiki says kid in 2021, rona in 2022.
Rona might have had her out-of-action for long enough that the boom period passed and Bushi/donuts weren't interested/able to pay for her anymore.

The other Reverse stories were pretty good. I wonder if this one will keep the momentum going?

IFCHORD

3/40 for ET4
10 runs to full train a peaky

A lot of longtime players unhappy that Unichord is getting yet another event

>>1742117
Also not sure why they hate their reverse cards
Look sexy, distinct and dark

>>1742191
>>1742117
I usually join in the shit-on-unichord train but I think Donuts was really stuck in a catch-22 on this one. Obviously they're using the remaining reverse events + collabs to stall for time on the whole "main story" thing from last week but the only options for this were unichord or peaky (who had a more recent event + the challenge map).
Ideally Phomai or M4 should have gotten it but Saori hasn't been recast yet so M4 was never going to get it. No idea why they didn't give it to Photon though.

>>1742195
Phomai was one of the first reverse gachas...

>>1742210
I wasn't saying they should have got a reverse, I just meant an event in general. Photon and Merm4id's reverses were during the student council events, so neither had event stories.

>>1742195
Actually did they need to skip merms?
I just rolled for IFCHORD and collecting them didn't get any voice lines

>>1742682
None of the reverse have voice lines. That's part their gimmick.

>>1742741
That's part of their gimmick. They all had card stories though. Part of why I think Merm4id's was shat out ASAP with no dedicated event was probably so they could get it in before Saori's VA left.*

Wait do Reverse card not have any lines when you set them as a background? Or is that every card since I was just so used to NVs

>>1742783
Only NVs have unique lines. Everyone else just rotates through standard dialogue + seasonal lines, don't they?

>>1742998
I haven't heard anything from my IFchords

NV has navigational voices when the home page is set to card view. Other cards don't have voices when set to card view.
L2D view has seasonal voicelines etc

I liked the alternate versions of all the Unichords more than their actual selves...

I really wish we can change the bgm. The EVILchord backgrounds look funny with the happy bgm

https://x.com/_FallenGhoul/status/1923503769016467926

holy fuck you can see UniChØrd's pantsu in the reverse cards?!

>>1744242
Hayate's pantsu would have ended the world... that's why donuts hid them

Lumina resolving to move beyond her origin was a good ending, at least. The event story could have used some more meat instead of just being 97% comedy, though.

>>1744242
its a bodysuit with a transparent skirt

>>1744359
you can see her belly button and suspenders connected to the strap of her thong

>>1744363
It's a bodysuit, you're starting to see things anon. The L2D also shows it clearly.

>>1744371
you can't explain the vertical suspenders and the horizontal straps of the pantsu
plus belly button and shadow of her abs on the right side

>>1744380
>anon wants kokoa to have extremely long ass legs

>L2D is completely different
sure it's not like they didn't have a rough design sketch to reference for both the L2D and card art

>>1744385
thanks for outlining the pantsu
did you reply to the wrong anon?

Anon be fucking for real.
Using your logic there's a skin tight cloth that touches her supposed underwear.

>>1744380
you are the dumbest motherfucker on this board

>>1744391
What? The one-piece skirts are not skin tight
The black bras are connected to the straps of pantsu via suspenders. See >>1744385

>>1744392
Where is all this anger coming from?
The hate coming from UniChØrd getting all the good stuff is getting out of hand.

>Reverse
More like Upright

fellow d4djtwt sisters... michiru is doing the no no tits and ass pose...

>falling for x bait again
Xisters, shall I make the /vg/ thread? We've finally acquired our schizo. Now we have all the ingredients for a functioning general.

Before Date-chan, we have an alcoholic homeless woman also from America sexually harassing JK in the park...
Happy birthday to her!

>>1744631
Happy birthday Mana. You were a surprisingly effective antagonist and I hope you and your fellow hags come back one day.

>>1744552
Would we even survive on /vg/? It's comfy here.

Next GroovyFES is gonna be rough. Esora + Kyoko.

>>1744946
Ballet Elsie finally?
Will she wear pointe shoes?

pon~

lmao Lumina calling Kokoa ecchi

>>1745059
duh she's exposing her pantsu

Happy birthday to (the DJ Of) Mana!

No extra gems and tickets this event?

>>1745061
Worse, she was staring at Lumina's wiring

>Bugged Michiru: a president of global entertainment company who made her first money with one meme song and stopped doing music and just use money to make more money
>Bugged Hayate: an idol
>Bugged Kokoa: a neet otaku obsessed with Hayate

Wait, what is wrong with being an idol again?

hiki neet Kokoa is 12/10

>>1745091
Love how her online nickname is Haya-Coco haha

Hayate is my idol

What's the exact lines they say for bingo?

>>1745362
mostly just generic stuff like "reach" for almost getting a bingo, then calling how many bingos you got ("double", "triple", etc.).
Sometimes they say extra dialogue but those are character-specific I think. I haven't paid attention to any of the current batch.

Is this the real Oyu?

She took the entire bank so I guess no Reverse and NV3 Esoran for me. Not pictured, somehow Elsie arrived twice.

Kyoko looks good in anything

>>1745597
Good for you Esora anon

>>1745596
It is if you believe.
>>1745597
gratz esora-fag also I missed you but also sorry for your loss.
I got the peakies in about 180 pulls. Card stories were both fucking hilarious.

>>1745607
Esora fag is the last remaining oldfag /here/

>>1745637
this general used to be alive? I didn't find it until ~Cross Beat myself (I've been playing since like 2021 though).

>>1745643
Wouldn't know I just remember seeing esora anon existing here before me. I'm interested in the first thread so I'm gonna check the arch

There's only been 58 threads surprisingly. It did feel more lively back when there was hopes of an English option...

>>1745658
>English option
I've only heard stories, but I do pity anyone who actually took the offer to hop servers. I wish douts/bushi had found a way to make the licensing shit work but given the miserable state EN is in with covers/base songs/etc. I can see why they felt the need to split them.

>>1745686
Bushi pussied out. The game was regionally distributed for JP only but not region locked. They should have introduced English menu options and left it at that, and the English players who wanted to play would just need to have a work around. Ideally they should have translated everything and left it in the JP app as that's not releasing globally. But since global was announced they couldn't do that, as that would hurt the global player base.

>>1745979
>i-it's bushi's fault!
Pathetic Donuts groveler

>>1746182
>anon literally read the first two words
You can suck donuts or bushis dick. I don't care. The ones running the show when English translation was cancelled and remade to English version was bushi. So yes they will get 100% of the hate here. Donuts was just in charge of making the game at this point. If they had called for a separate English only version too then fuck them instead.

Fuck it before we spiral into another "bushi bad" Vs. "bushi good" shit-flinging fest come on guys usually I'm the one who starts pissing on bushi, I'll post the tl;dr of the unichord event since our usual TL guy didn't:
Unichord is doing maintenance on Lumina during a lightning storm because they're very smart.
Lightning strikes, Lumina KO'd. She won't wake up from maintenance mode.
After some back-and-forth, they send Pumina in to get Lumina to wake up.
Turns out Lumina's data on her unit is
corrupted. Fix the data = wake up.
Because of corruption, the unichords are funny versions of themselves as >>1745089 described.
After fixing the other 3 via comedy
hijinks, Lumina still can't wake up.
It's because Lumina's data on herself is corrupted(?)
She can't un-corrupt herself, so they're stuck.
After talking it over with the data! unichord members, they come up with a plan. Pumina knocks Lumina into her core so she can analyze data on her origin.
Lumina talks to the fragment of Aria's soul that was put inside her by Dr. Nova, which is just a girl who loves singing.
This last piece was what Lumina needed to wake up. She banters with the rest of the group about what she saw in her "dream"
In the end, Lumina's glad she "met" Airi's data, but also resolves to live her own life alongside Unichord and be more than just Airi's ghost.

As someone who's been here since the 2nd thread, I don't get why all the remaining digglers are so aggro.

>>1746222
Thanks anon!

>>1746233
Probably a combo of:
>bad blood over hags sans raychell/Shano being more or less permanently on a bus (meaning that basically any new unit will be divisive at best)
>bad blood over side origin/side nova + cross beat de-emphasizing the OG 6 relative to unimare (admittedly I am guilty of this myself).
>bad blood over the bushi-donuts divorce from last year (we still get raided every now and again by doomposters whenever there's actual bad news).
>EN D4 twitter is a cesspool of constant drama where people shit-fling over inane shit.
Personally I can vibe with talking about shit like management decisions and writing quality, but when people start getting outright hostile towards fans of X/Y/Z unit I check out. There's like 200 people who play this game outside of Japan no need to get mad.

Elsie humiliates Weronika by putting her into a ballet tutu!

I want to hear the song Kyoko made on her toy melodica thing. Release it donuts, you cowards.

Elsie did the splits in fishnet stockings and now we have her in pointe shoes, but when are we getting her in canvas split-sole ballet slippers?

And still waiting for the rhythmic gymnastics cards. Nagisa's new VA did it in middle school.

>>1746901
Something like the ice skating event?

>>1747223
Yes! And we only got one cheerleading set early on and it was half HA and half PK. Could use another one with more stunts like the scorpion

happy birthday to everyone's favorite lesbian catholic schoolgirl!

With June 1st approaching, you know what we need? Children cards again.

>>1747756
Hayakoko's birthday was earlier this year

Since D4DJ is technically separated from Bushiroad now, do you guys think it's possible that we could have a collab with another card game besides Cardfight Vanguard? Maybe a Yu-Gi-Oh collab with Hayate/Kokoa as Raye/Roze and Aoi/Tsubaki as Albaz/Ecclesia, or something like that?

>>1748002
As much as I'd kill for it asking anything to collab with Konami is a stretch.
I've been asking for benami collabs every survey since forever. They got kors k to do a remix last year so anything's possible I guess.

Is the GBC mobage going to be a flop?

>>1748185
low-key hoping it is so we can stay afloat. With how popular the franchise is it's a coin-toss though.

Jesus Christ, unichord fans are insane. I went to bed 5 hours before event close around rank 490. I woke up to rank 840.
I've never had this big of a drop before

>>1748344
At least you technically lost nothing in terms of how many event SPs you got. Sucks that you got kicked out of T500 though.

>>1748356
No I expected to leave 500, I normally go sub 500 if I want the club item, but I usually end at 650s

RIP Merm4id

Are we really down that bad that we need to fill the events before "new" story with a incomplete unit?
Next you'll tell me the duo egg is coming to DJs

>>1748668
To be fair they did warn us this was going to happen ~3 weeks ago. We all just started huffing copium thinking it was going to be limited to the collabs. Seems like they're either using the lack of a Saori VA as an excuse to have no story while still giving M4 an """event""" since they haven't had a solo in a year.

Sorry, meant to say "OR still giving M4 an event"

monkey pawed after bitching and moaning about UniChØrd reverse event
Exactly 6 months from May to October so the OG 6 units can each has one story-less SLOT event

>>1748673
>We all just started huffing copium thinking it was going to be limited to the collabs
...Please
>>1736871
Except instead of UniChØrd Reverse, it is Merm4id Stage

On the other hand, I guess Seasonal events are safe? Maybe even collab will still get stories now.

EOPs are already blaming UniChØrd for this.
They are polluting my search results on X for my daily UniChØrd surfing.

Come to think of it, it is insane how UniChØrd are the only unit with antis both in JP and EN

>>1748668
On May 21st the EGOEGG open audition Line account sent a reminder to submit the entry before June 1st, and said interview process has already started for those who passed.

Chances they had a story planned but nobody to record it?

>>1748768
0%
The event title is placeholder tier and gacha set is generic SP made for main story events
They also just kept the one character unvoiced during Rei VA change as per industrial standard

>>1748737
>>1748668
Maybe they were made for 6-part EGGEGO Another Story leading up to 5th Year anniversary new main story

Happy birthday to Haruna-chan!

>>1748958

Reverse cards story, taking place in real world
Hayate: Hayate is the dad who plays catch, soccer and vidya with Pumina. Kokoa is the mom who worries about Pumina's safety and watches them play vidya. Lumina cries that Pumina is supposed to be "hers".
Kokoa: Kokoa wants Hayate to share her hobby (in this case romance novels) and Hayate refuses. Hayate would rather hear Kokoa tell her stuff Kokoa is enjoying. Kokoa figures it is still pretty nice to have someone who is willing to listen to that.
We are entering married couple territory

I'm kinda getting sick of peaky growth. I've stopped putting teams to level there and I've just kept spamming it with my strongest team so I can auto the VS

hoping/praying for decent results on EN 4.5th.

New player here, why do some cards have this "growth" icon in Growth Live? Should I use them instead of lv.80 ones?

I've never growthed in my life

>>1750409
I forget 100% but I think it just means they are still eligible or something. Regardless, you shouldn't use anything below 4* in growth live. If you're *SUPER* new you can use 3*s, but even then when you do growth live for the first time you get like 50 free moves that do not come back, so you're better off waiting for a full squad of 4*s/SPs/whatever to send in.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CQSiai-l3AY
doggos

>>1750456
I can't believe they actually translated Shika's wall of text. Good on them.

>>1750447
When events are going on, if I got any of the event units, I would put them in my growth team (even if it was just a 3* freebie) to get some extra match bonus points from growth lives.

Does that still work after this update, or does the change that growth lives don't cost voltage also mean no match bonus from event units?

>>1750447
No, the symbol doesn't mean it can growth. My capped cards all have this still. Interestingly my Groovy Fes 2 cards didn't have the icon, but once I maxxed them the icon showed up

>>1750465
Yes growth stages still count for event points. I didn't check if poker cards still get it after the update when voltage was removed, or did we not have a poker event yet...?
But the point gain is so small I don't swap unless I'm tiering since all cards still have room to grow

Good morning, my fellow "Dig Delight! Direct Drive! Disc Jockey: Groovy Mix" players.

Good Night, my fellow "Dig Delight! Direct Drive! Disc Jockey: Groovy Mix" enjoyers.
My 4.5th EN pulls mostly sucked but I got 4th anni wero so I can't complain that much

>>1749655
I am starting to think about bringing two strong cards to help level up weaker ones, like in Ar-Pee- Gees

Rika seiyuu recorded recently. Hopefully the westerners will calm down.

Kokoa seiyuu also recorded recently and Tsubaki seiyuu said she was going to record a song today.

for all the songs EN loses i wish it'd lose cat's eye

>>1750780
Thank Jesus EN twitter has been completely unusable lately. It's not like M4 was hurting for events and Saori still hasn't been recast anyway.
the cynical part of me hopes they were just recording June home screen lines lmao

I've had to step up my nip learning game big time just to talk to random ass ojisans on other sites.

>>1750878
I like Cat's Eye. It's overplayed because it's meta, but I still think it's a catchy song and I'd be sad to lose it.

Hey lads, would you be interested in having a player representing this thread in our 4cc team?

EN shitter here, is this going to be my best backline until i get 2 growth cards?

>>1751408
I would but I fucking suck lol.
What type of music recs would you want? D4DJ's got plenty of good tunes in different genres depending on what you're going for. Typically it's weebshit techno but I have some of the instrumental tracks if you'd rather have stuff w/o lyrics.
>>1751417
Only way I can think of improving is getting the other two rave hags but other than that you got it on lockdown.

>>1751440
KSRP desuzo!

>>1751440
>>1751417
Hags from the other half don't stack. You either take canary or lynx
Your other two back ups should be strongest cards or groovy track 2 units
Down the line peaky growth will replace hags. Either kyo-shino or jenny-esora duo

mostly songs that make people spam more emotes, which is usually rave/techno type songs, lyrics are fine but they're mostly effective when there is a english phrase that could work in divegrass.

>>1753469
hard songs again! pun intended

>>1753469
Fuck yeah that's the stuff.
Maybe in the survey I should have asked for a DJ Shrapnel collab.

I have a question about Unit Match skills. In modes that allow you to use duplicates of 1 girl like Floor Challenge, do I need to have 1 of each individual unique girl in a unit to get the full Unit Match skill boost, or do dupes of 1 girl still count as long as you have 4 total from the same unit? My current Floor Challenge team for Lyrical Lily is literally just 14 Haruna and 2 Miyu (with no Kurumi or Miiko) to maximize my club item boosts, and I have one of those Haruna training in my Growth Live right now. Would giving that Haruna a Unit Match skill (if the chance comes up) let me get the full 70% boost from it in Floor Challenge with that setup, or would it not work with no Kurumi or Miiko in my Floor Challenge team?

>>1752821
Especially reminds me of Eastern Europe
Apparently it is called Russian Hard Bass

tfw UniChØrd is the hardcore unit

>>1753621
IIRC the specific characters don't matter. You should be fine as-is.

God I multiplayer. You always know who would stall the timer just by their DJ of choice

whoever made the song for the new growth thing really did a great job, the og growth one was really good but this one really gets me going

>>1753963
After you get to your 7th extra training, you start to get bored.

>>1753963
It's actually an old song from groovy mix cup (the tournament for the rhythm game). Here's the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ya-mXXrkmO8

There's also two remixes.
One for Photon-M4: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ORdx0xip4Ho
One for Rondo-riri: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mDdR7uakcSU
They're all basically the same song (stealth remix of gacha top), but with different instrumentation. I like it a lot.

i never understood these skills, is it max 55% score up, so not worth it?

>>1754127
>6 seconds
Just B yourself anon. It's very minute in the grand scheme of things

>>1754127
It's 45% base, plus 5% for each girl of that unit including the one who has the skill (up to a max of 4, not counting supports). plus a 10% bonus if you have a full set of 4.

So at minimum it's 50% if you have no other characters from that unit, and at maximum it's 75% if you have 4 characters from that unit. It's better than the standard 65% general score up if you optimize for it, but it's less versatile.

>>1754127
style match is best in slot for events
unit match is currently a bit less useful due to possibility of mixed unit events

>>1752816
Players seem to like this song in multiplyer

>>1754183
thanks anons, one (hopefully) last thing, should i clear the items from the new growth shop or save those golden records? feels like i should get them but i wanna be sure

>>1754301
changing hands and changing team formation are pretty useful to the point they sell them with gems in the cash store
doubling moves less so unless you want to rush for PKPKs
extra bonus is pretty meh

On the other hand PKPKs don't cost many gold records, so unless you are saving up for Rave Call of Artemis, it doesn't matter how you spent them

>>1754309
guess i'll clear every item, thanks

Now that it's June in Japan:

>Here's to another 2 months of doomposting.
What else does The End mean T.T

>>1755277
NTA the 主催 was Bushiroad Music until 6th Live which was Donuts. Ace Crew became the 主催 only this year with 7th Live and now 8th.

>>1755336
Anon
western m3rmaid stans would rather die than acknowledge bushiroad
despite Bushiroad Music was on charge of EVERY d4dj live until the transfer.

https://x.com/kazushimiyakoda/status/1929014916876226964

I assume the Live will seemlingly have only 3 cast members, then they introduce the new Saori seiyuu there, so it is officially both the END of old Merm4id and start of new Merm4id?

If anything, given the state of the Donuts-ran lives, why are you *mad* that Ace crew are doing it themselves?

>>1755346
Wut? I went to Donuts-ran Abyssmare and Ri4 Lives and they didn't feel any different from Bushiroad's

Anyway, I didn't believe it (because contrary to >>1755340 I don't really vibe with merm4id much) but after digging through the archive you're right >>1755336. I have no idea why I thought Ace was doing all of them.

>>1755348
No issues with the venues? When I looked up the places they've been using in 2025 (riri, hapiara, next month's unichord), it says it only has a capacity of 500. That seems low compared to the place I went to go see peaky in Nagoya last year.

>>1755356
If anything, 500 is still too big for Happy Around, UniChØrd etc and they can't fill it

>>1755356
Ri4 one was in Shinagawa Prince Hotel's venue that Bushiroad has been using since the start of D4DJ. Amane announced audition for Ri4 there and 2nd Merm4id vs Rondo was here and I am sure there are more.

>>1755171
Will Saori be there...?

finally FC'ed Hibana Reloaded
GFC to boot

>>1755463
Himarin is dead anon...
time to let it go...

>>1755536
And now FC'ed Six Trillion Years and One Night Story. I think that is all the Vocaloid songs. Weird we didn't have any 15 Vocaloid songs?

>>1755357
Ragging on D4DJ is one thing Bushi-anon but at least be fair and admit that the happy around live sold out.
we'll see how unichord goes though lol

>>1755614

>>1755603

Maybe if you don't talk anything out of your ass, maybe we can have the normal discussion you desired

For the Donuts era Lives, Ri4 and both Merm4id sold out. Abyssmare sold out only the front half, and Happy Around only the VIP (front 1/4?). The only "to be fair" is that Happy Around is All Standing.

Bizarrely right now they have sold out the back half area for the afternoon showing.
I guess most of their fans are actual kids who can't afford the ever pricier front tickets and they need to go home before it is too dark outside.

>>1755653
The previous cast changes have all been pretty shameful so they usually try to get over it quickly.
Saori seiyuu is such a special case they are literally drinking and procrastinating and milking it as much as possible so it is possible, yet not very probable judging by traditions.

>>1755661
>May'n couldn't sell out.
Well I guess that explains why there hasn't been another abyssmare live.

WTF happened
most D4DJ music on youtube is kill

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eu2HfE00Wb8
just a handful of dead uploads of several
>>>>> hold
investigated further while still making this post, seems like all the old uploads for older songs got killed, and in the past 2 months have been re uploaded? see https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCigPcKxTKUpTrcw5j-dGAZQ
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MY5fgEYi0qQ&list=OLAK5uy_neP0CEw5iNf_gQd0y4AwHR8mbWhOmg0eI&index=12
most with this apr 3rd upload date, some march 4th now checking merm4id channel
I know I've listened to my playlist more recently than that so there were still the years older uploads existing but not kill yet

So I guess my new question is why would they do this? seems like most songs over a year or two old got kill and reupped. visually they've been compiled into larger albums but i dont see why a takedown and reupload would be needed just to change the image & playlist
gotta redo my whole playlist

>>1756003
>official reupload
Is not d4dj only
Bandori and Love Live suffered from the shit
For Love Live it was because they changed their worlwide distributors multiple times.
For Bandori because it was autogenerated until they got an official worldwide distributor.
For D4DJ is a mix of both

>>1756003
This happened to me a few times in the past so >>1756039 is probably correct. It's really annoying when trying to organize playlists. If I had to hazard a guess something-something-Japanese-music-industry.

Anyway a question for this anon >>1755654 if you're still around (or willing to talk to me, since I'm the one who got information about lives wrong yesterday). In your opinion, why has donuts spent the bulk of this year focusing on the objectively less-popular units (not counting M4, since as-discussed Ace Crew produced those lives at least mostly independently)? Doesn't that seem counterproductive given the state of the franchise post-bushi leaving?

>>1756003
This is why I let youtube music handle create my "radio" for me
Bless you Denonbu for not releasing flacs

>これからのMerm4idにとって
とっても大切なライブになる予感
So Donuts (& Bushi) will decide Merm4id future with this concert?
Not even Photon Maiden lives post Amita were this "dramatic".
So unlikely they are hyping this up for a seiyuu reveal.

>>1756125
Why Bushi? Because of Mei's being in Ave Mujica?

>>1756125
I didn't get that feeling

>>1756063
It is their turn and I believe in Rondo & Photon Lives late this year

>>1756363
Both would be nice since they haven't had lives in forever due to VA issues (IIRC Photon's last live had issues due to being too soon after Amita leaving but I might just be miss-remembering since it was a while ago).

>>1756364
Amita already came back for over 3 months by the time PM 2nd Live Ship's Log was held

>>1756390
Did Amita perform as Ibuki at that live? Shouldn't it have been Kanon since she was recast?
Anyway, looks like collab is next. No surprises there: https://x.com/D4DJ_gm/status/1929100614652314044

>two story-less events in a row
We are so fucked...

EoS any day now!!

It's not the collab? That's bizarre.

>>1756713
>>1756421
never mind I'm a fucking retard and missed 情報. This is truly DJ Hell.

What's the next collab?
yes I can google it, but I would like to engage in conversation

>>1756725
I (and large swaths of JP, if the 5ch/tsuba threads I'm looking are is anything to go by) assumed it was going to be the next event, a crossover with The Shiunji Family Children. From glossing over a description it looks like FOTM harem-type stuff. I don't really care one way or the other but I suspect the usual suspects will have an absolute meltdown (even though EN doesn't even get collabs lol).

>>1756712
I've seen grumblings that T7S went down a similar bad path with more and more story-less events, but I don't know how accurate that take is since I've never been into that franchise. I remember having a conversation about it with an anon here a few threads ago during a different doomposting wave but I don't remember the details. T7S-anon are you out there? please tell me I'm full of shit I am begging and pleading the story of DJs is the main draw for me

>>1756728
It literally is fotm, shit's still ongoing. I was wondering why I never heard of this

>>1756732
More confusing is how the hell we landed the collab. It seems popular enough. Maybe there's a personal connection on the staff?

>>1756736
I pulled up the mango, it's this story. Typical harem of rich kids, and wincest undertones. So this will be fun.
>how the hell we landed the collab
Probably luck but if you want any stretch of connection, kemu is working on the music and DJs had Jinsei Reset Button

>>1756741
That's an interesting music connection. It's a shame we're trapped in our niche pigeonhole because it always seems like the talent have fun working on the project even if it might be kayfabe and we have some interesting outsiders who are willing to step in for remixes/etc. (like Taco-C and when we landed Kors K at last year's Groovy Mix Cup).

You summoned me. I came.

>>1756730
Wait what we had event stories? Oh wait we did. Like 8 years ago.

But yeah Donuts does not really do event stories. They are more likely to bring in the seiyuu to record stories connected to rl events, and even that isn't happening anymore. Nowadays the 'story' is them uploading a macro on the official twitter. Voiced content comes out every few months rather than weeks.

As for the Eos dooming. 4 to 5 years ago. They released the final mainline story with a teaser line "even if this could be our last." We all thought it was the end of T7S as we knew it, and it kinda was. A few months afterwards the main director-writer retired from T7S and left Donuts. Though the game is still here, they hired some new Idols, and since then things have been weird.

Music is still good though.

>>1756730
>more and more story-less events
Whoever were grumbliing have no idea what they're talking about. For T7S storyless events is the norm and not the exception. While the game does still get stories, it's being drip fed. The major storylines are run independently of any events the game has. There was a specific event type that always had a story, but it only ran 12 times total from 2018 to 2019. Prior to that, the game went at least a year without any stories. I didn't check the exact timeframe, but it could have been as many as 3 years.

>>1756803
>Like 8 years ago.
That's also not true actually. As above, the last episode event was 6 years ago, and excluding the hololive collab, we've had 8 event stories since then. One of them I remember was for the guerrilla sonic event with Don Kan Boy, way back in 2021, and there have been 4 more since then. The most recent one centred around QoP, although I don't remember exactly when it was.

>>1756804

>>1756874
It doesnt
7th sister is something Donuts can handle
D4DJ isn't
Because when the Budokan was "postponed", a higher up of Donuts came forward to state the reason was their logistics were not strong enough to pull it off.
Add they are currently developing the GBC gacha with the current story-less events gurumiku.
And the result is D4DJ is too complex for small Donuts to handle.

>Scroll up
Huh. And I thought Donuts was weird for shilling the non-existent GBC game on the T7S main twat.

>>1756960
Do the tokyo sisters have lives regulary?

Remember
Donuts used the 4.5 anniversary of Gurumiku to shill GBC on Gurumiku.

>>1756967
Yes. Mix of RL events, Virtual Lives and streaming through in-house Mixch. As someone pointed out, it's probably the reason why they can keep the series going on for so long. We WILL buy those concert seats and WE WILL buy those overpriced penlight, books and t-shirts.

>>1756967
They already did one on Budokan way before Kidani saw the Chainsmokers

>a higher up of Donuts
Nakayama Masashiro was from Bushiroad you twat.
He retired from Bushiroad last year and is now running his own AI anime startup.
For new friens (we seem to have gotten 2) : He is the producer of Rondo and formally the chief producer of D4DJ

APOLOGIZE!

>>1756975
>No u
D4DJ still too much for Donuts too handle
And they are betting their balls on the upcoming GBC gacha
Thats why 7thsister and gurumiku xitter accounts became GBC 2nd pr accounts.

The Mato shitposter never gets the most basic facts down. I am not even talking about random trivias of irl concerts like from a few days ago.

>Considered homophobic by westoids

>>1756978

Donuts managed to pull a Budokan concert back when they were smallers
Them stating not able to pull it now due logistics reveals handling D4DJ is different than 7th sisters.
And implies the reason 7th sisters is still around is because is easier to handle for them.

>X was a mistake

>>1756922
>Top is ProSeka
All 3 slots?
Where were Bandori and ENStars? I figured they're be #2 and #3 based on that list.

>>1756950
In an attempt to side-step the inevitable shit-flinging over Bushi, collabs, etc.
Do any of you also find it weird that All Mix (which only featured the OG 6) was the second anime and Side Origin/Nova was regulated to a series on in-game events? Seems counterproductive to make a new gen and then not have any big project to properly market them outside of a few youtube uploads/tweets. Was there behind the scenes drama I don't know about (I've been around since 2021 but didn't start following the series seriously until after Side Origin/Nova ended)

Will we ever get season 3 now that bushi abandoned its child?

>>1757023
Given the current state of the anime industry + donuts seemingly niche status, I doubt it. Maybe if the stars align and we recover from this niche status we can get some kind of web series? Even that seems like a stretch though since Donuts don't come off to me as the type to be willing to take that kind of big risk,

EGOEGG Audition 3rd Screening has begun. The 1st one was just document review, and 2nd one was online interview. There seem to be just short of 100 who passed the first 2 and they are now divided into Block A and Block B, to stream on mixch and earn points during the month of June. Points are mostly converted from virtual gifts earned during streaming, which were in turn bought with coins earned by viewers either with daily missions or swiping their credit cards. Luckily they also added the ability to give gifts to posts, so if you are really busy you could just post instead of streaming.
The 1st place of each blocks will get signed with Donuts's seiyuu agency to dub foreign films. These 2 and the next 6 top rankers of both blocks combined will enter the final screening. The next 7 top rankers could still enter the final screening if they caught Donuts's eyes.
However, there is also special scouting taking place, and the scouted could skip to the final screening without all this shit. And finally Donuts reserve the rights to cast an EGG with someone from outside of this audition lol.
This audition is only open to someone not signed on with a talent agency or record label because Donuts got PTSD from the 2 dropouts. Currently after one day, the 1st place of Block A is a VTuber and 1st place of Block B is a gravure idol. The next top rankers are a chika idol, a freelance actress, a utaite, and a cosplayer.

>>1759348
>And finally Donuts reserve the rights to cast an EGG with someone from outside of this audition lol.

>>1759348

>>1759549
For some reason Raychell has been following the Vtuber on X for years.
The gravure idol is a pro so she didn't really do anything for 9 hours.
They are about 300 bucks ahead of others if I am not mistaken. May need to test it out later.

>>1759648
Well if she's got Raychell's vote she's got mine. Anything to get her on-stage for us again.

>>1759658
Really curious of their relationship. They had collabs and talked to each other on Xitter 2 years back.
However I feel like VTuber/Illustrator is not a good fit for seiyuu contents. I am rooting for someone who can act right now. One of the candidates is followed by Muni, Sophia and Kokoa seiyuus but I missed her stream because I went to watch Date-chan seiyuu's Pripri 4.

>>1759395
I like the utaite
https://x.com/choco_utauta
Her voice is nice and she sings well
She wants to be Mikumo
Only weird thing is that she has Elmo?/Sesame Street with her on stream

Why does every new song have female vocal when it has a pair of moids on every cover

Either Nanahira or Risa Yuzuki next please donatsu

EGOEGG final screening is on July 6th, and Donuts expect to announce the result on July 9th. This schedule looks slightly unrealistic.

>>1759774
>she has Elmo?/Sesame Street with her on stream
Not sure if based or fucked. Either way this audition seems to be the most exciting thing happening with DJs for a long time. I don't remember the first audition being this interesting at least although I might have just not been looking in the right places

>>1759851
?

https://x.com/ka___n000/status/1931351131239682279

Why do Denonbu like UniChØrd songs so much? They played Nanmo Wakaran before too.

>>1759943
>I love Ma'Scar'Piece
After listening to Denonbu for a while, only Unichord and Merms actually match the vibes of the denonbus I like
Some other DJ songs also get recommended to me but they're typically older songs like electric countdown or discover universe

>>1759943
To be fair universe song was TANO-C's instrumental for them and Nanmo Wakaran is a meme song.
I like Unichord's instrumentals (Kuso Reaper and Hajimari beat have really good ones) but I can't vibe with the vocals at all.

Peaky Force and WINNER are probably my favorite songs in the franchise right now but my taste varies greatly based on what I'm in the mood for on any given day of the week.

Sophia BD uchiwa asks her become Neo-sama's chair...

how does denonbu have 2x as much units as us? Despite starting in 2020 like us

>>1760382
No need to produce constant contents like stories and art I guess
Just hire 3 dime a dozen newbies coming to Tokyo and bang a new unit

>>1760382
You want *more* units? We already have enough shit flinging because of UniMare the way it is.
although I guess if they were just side-units like hags and ABCD I wouldn't mind

>>1760382
>>1760404
>>1760406
They actually have less characters than us.
There's only 5 'main' units, composed of 3 girls each, that are fully affiliated with Denonbu, and those are the ones we collab with.
The rest like >>1759946 are as best I can describe are affiliates who use the branding? Not exactly too sure what the deal with these independent groups are and how related they are to the story since like the other anon mentioned, the story isn't there, or at least it's not widely available

is there any way to full auto groovy mix tours?

>>1760596
I wish lmao. JP has been complaining about it too IIRC.
Once I did a glitch where it kicked me into the "select unit" menu mid-song and after that it let me auto, but I have 0 idea how to replicate it and I never managed to have it happen again.

>>1760603
They'll never allow you to auto it. What they really need to do is clean up tours, there's just way too many. Consolidate the group split and make the tickets universal or something. I'd wish for a short version too but I don't think that will happen.

>>1760615
Short version of what? The only full-size song you play during tours in the one where you pick whatever you want, isn't it?

>>1760701
These are all suggestions
- tour consolidation
- short version
- auto play
I will take any of these improvements, will they happen? Probably not

Donuts heard our complaint
>>1759851
Today the cover has only one moid and he sings the song himself

>>1760708
nta but they are already short ver.

my suggestion is a parallel track of missions to play songs in DJTIME mode. make it so you can only gain the tickets from either the tours or the DJTIME.
So right now we have 8 tours for 8 units. Set up DJTIME mode so you can also get that 1-3 tickets by playing corresponding unit's songs in DJTIME until you hit the reward timestamp. Then the corresponding day in the tour gets automatically completed so you can't get tickets from there, but you can play the tour the next day still.

UNDERCODE is a really good scoring song, wtf

>>1761016
The manual weekly tour is full. I don't even do this one anymore since it takes too much time.
If someone plays 2x a day. That's 2 event matchmakings. 10 growth spaces with a high likelihood of hitting a yellow or red node. Then you have tours on top of it. Making it a short version anywhere would be a major improvement.
Rather most of my issue stems from growth and the stupid amount of VS nodes stacked together. You have to carefully avoid them to make a quick growth run.

>>1761087
>That's 2 event matchmakings. 10 growth spaces
Per play period so 4 matchmaking and 20 growth spaces per day. It gets worse if you try to time it so neither voltage or growth cap since there's no overflow mechanic

>>1759986
>but I can't vibe with the vocals at all.
The vocals are part of what makes it for me. That last song really found a good balance between Lumina's commandeering vocals, Michiru's meme cries and the HayaCoco ASMR beauty. The casting was really on point for a denpa unit.

To be fair, their whole shtick post-character development is that they're a found family. I do miss them being outright evil though.Maybe one day we'll see what went down with them and Peaky in Europe (from the Happy Around Reverse event)

What if eggs became the new big bad

>announced after the transfer
>Will add the theme song performed by the bandori vtubers
Bushi neve left
In fact
It may comeback to co-manage d4dj again

A bushi comeback would be some hopium for more lives/CDs/etc. but I don't see why Kidani would bother.

Bushi never left
but also
they do not want to be the ones to be blamed if shit hits the fan

Happy birthday, Sophia unknown surname!

And early happy birthday to Neo unknown surname!

>>1762066
Wouldn't Neo's surname just be Nova?
Then again if I was Neo I'd probably ditch the last name too, all things considered.

>>1762159
>New New
What a pellicular name

Doggos songs finally out (on jp)

>>1762169
No one ever said Dr. Nova was a good parent.

>>1762201
bought all three from ototoy...

>>1762201
On YouTube or in the game?
Were they only event songs or something?

>>1762292
They're the full versions instead of the game-size. None of them had been released until now.

>>1762296
Is it on streaming platforms yet? I need to train the algo to add it into my playlist.

>>1762339

follow the links from here and you'll get it.

>>1762340
Well then...

>>1762343
timezone diff

>>1762343
Oh look it says DD records

What the fuck was that animation to unlock fight for the core?

I don't know how I feel about the full versions of ABCD

>>1762658
IIRC it's the animation they play when they show off the new songs at Groovy Mix Cup. It's cheesy but I liked it.

>We got a BanG Dream song before BanG Dream gets it
What did Donuts mean by this?
Bushiroad should have given us Sacred World.

Speaking about 500k for the event SP. Is this really an issue? I could even get all the gems from the shop before I got the 500k. The last tier of gems is annoying.

>>1762879
I agree sis! Together we will take down the Huge with our Charm

>>1762892
>I couldn't get all the gems
I was too lazy to get the last 300

>>1762835
OK/10 but I didn't like doggo's music to begin with.
They're probably the only ones in the franchise where I love the characters but don't like the music.

>>1762987
I think doggos might be the only songs where I like the game size over the full.

>>1762835
i loved each one pretty much immediately...

Did they always recycle the birthday dialogue for the home menu?

>collab also doesn't have stories
Shit that's three event-less events in a row.
The only thing preventing me from falling into doomposting is the EGOEGG audition going on.

>>1763095
Has been for years

I'm going to miss them

>>1763498
My current fear is we're getting a rotation of all units getting one of these no-story events. I thought it was just going to be one or two events but maybe the doomposters were right after all.

>>1763552
We are definitely getting at least 6 rounds of gachi shinken set of cards. The question is whether UniMare will get them and what else will be story-less. There are still 12 events until 5th anniversary.

>>1759252
We have the best memes

>>1763576
>thinking donuts would ever pass up a chance to give unimare content.
The real question is where the fuck peaky's reverse event went.

>>1763593
4 OG Stage + UniMare Stage + PKPK reverse + Brides + 2 Swimsuits + Yukata + One More Collab = 12 events

>>1763593
chill man, peaky just got growth.

>>1763498
wait shit are you the same anon who's been archiving everything from the audition over in the /jp/ bushi thread? If you are, I'm the one who's been simping for the may'n fangirl.

I feel like I should stop my D4dj subs...

>>1763653
If it makes you feel better I stopped mine to protest until stories come back.
I'm still shelling out for merch though. Gotta keep the nyochio collection complete.

>>1763740
I think I might just quit IAP all together.
The newest NVs are bugged when I guess the local time doesn't match the server time.
There's not any Collab I'm particularly looking forward to.
And I plan to not rank again.

I'm literally just spending money to spend money

>Gurumiku is degrading in quality
>less spending because Gurumiku is going down in quality
>Gurumiku is degrading in quality because no budget
>cycle continues
We are in a downward spiral, aren't we?

Nyes

>>1763815
I'd argue that's probably the case.
If Donuts is to be believed, they might be banking on doing something at the 5th anni as a saving throw, but from the sounds of it it's just going to be a larger in-game story.
Really what they'd probably need to have even a shot at relevancy is making a big $$$ gamble on airing another anime season to get more eyes on the franchise but if they aren't willing to do that for T7S they probably won't bother for us either.

>>1763831
They did a movie for T7S.
I want UniMare movie.

>2 hours in
>32nd raid
>took 15m to kill
This feels slow for the release hour

>>1763815
We are past the doom cycle. We were already supposed to be shut down by Bushiroad like Revue Starlight and others were. We are now living the afterlife.

>>1763799
Yeah if you're not JST your game will brick. I don't think they ever fixed it.
How many characters do you whale for? I keep the spending under control by just keeping it to Peaky on my end.

>>1763887
Pajama NVs still work fine. The only issue is the doggos only have classic NVs.
I originally only picked up 2baki cards but I stopped and just pick up cards whenever. Like I picked up the entire reverse unigay despite it not being limited. I just roll whenever I like something.
In essence I am the type of player gacha companies want to keep.

when did they change the clubs in groovy mix tour is this new

>>1763815
no event stories for collab events is improving in quality desu
you also might not like it but the reverse unichord event was pretty peak. same with beach doggos.
the full songs are so good...

https://x.com/grok/status/1933836089925709995

lol

>Nacherry song
One step closer to Mahoako collab

This Collab must suck in particular, I'm 1.3 and all I've been doing is the daily bonus raids.

>>1764080
HapiAra, PMaiden and UniChØrd produced my favorite songs of theirs after the divorce...

>>1764080
I actually loved basically every event story from ~March until the stories cut off (every Reverse story was basically on-par with the old main stories, which I mean in the best way possible). I felt like the writing was really improving in quality which is part of why I'm so bummed out about this current drought.
