I'm behind on my BanG Dream! lore but when did Raise a Suilen become a proper animated band? I wonder if the JP edition is going to add them eventually

God damnit, my tablet cannot handle the hold note patterns in Light Delight and keeps dropping half of them. I literally can't pass the song because of it. If I was playing this on a tablet that could read my inputs perfectly it would be a piece of cake.

Okay, I seem to be consistently the worst score in the master rooms even when I get FC.

What's the next step for getting better scores once you've maxed out a team of 3* and 4*s - unlocking special episodes or upgrading area items? Both are pretty much equally heavy investments at this point.

Upgrading area items is more important to do first. If you have excess shards but not enough coins, then unlock some episodes.

Area items first. Go for the stuff that boosts types from the Cafeteria and Ryuseido. Most of the time you're going to focus on colors rather than a specific band, and those give the biggest boosts when maxed out (10% increase to stats of a certain color)

In the end though, everyone hits the same wall and coins become the hardest thing to track down.

Really? Because I'm swimming in dough. What I can't get fast enough are the pink crystals for the final upgrade levels.

17,500 stars, 3x 4*. Rate-up? Suuure. To make it worse, two of the 4* were dupes, that being detective Kokoro and Blossom Arisa. I don't even have that many 4* to get duplicates of. The third 4* was Dream Fest Eve, the one character I didn't want (I personally find her annoying).

Whatever, I'm just glad they were free stars and not paid. My gacha luck continues to be bad, hopefully 2019 is better for me. :(

Edit: Never mind, it's not even a DreamFes character I pulled, as Eve is just a standard event character. That explains why she wans't on the banner. It makes me feel even worse.

DUUUUUPE FESTIVAL.

I'm too damn close to Neo Fantasy Online to waste too many stars here. Want 30k to start off the event.

Spent like 35,000 stars, here's what I got overall:
Dreamfest Aya
Dreamfest Sayo
NY Kokoro
NY Eve
4* Happy Ran
4* Pure Arisa
4* Happy Maya (dupe)
2x 4* Pure Chisato (dupes)
4* Pure Ran (dupe)
4* Pure Kasumi (dupe)
4* Powerful Rimi (dupe)

These pulls were pretty absurd.

Oh yeah, Happy Synthesizer was added to the game. I hope no one picks it because the chart for it is god awful.

Do the normal Dream Festival gacha and the New Year Special Set gachas both have the same member lineup (including limited/new members) and both have the boosted 4* rate? Doesn't that mean you should use all three of the available New Year rolls before touching the regular Dream Festival gacha?

Wow, getting 9 2* and 1 mandatory 3* in Dreamfest? Super tilting, especially since I only had 5000 stars to spare. Urgh.

So calculation puts odds of not pulling any 4* at ~30%. I've been X-Comed.

Two 10 pulls and got the 4* Tsugumi from the cookie baking event. That Tsugumi pull was haunted, I got 2 other dupe 3* of her too + another 2* I was missing from her.
I'm no longer a Sayo account I guess.

My JP account got Dreamfest Lisa and NY Kasumi, I guess all my gacha luck is in Bang Dream and not any of the other gachas I play lol.

Oh damn, Worldwide edition got Kizuna Music tonight (one of the S2 openings), so that means we should be getting Brave Jewel sometime soon as well. Awesome!

Something that surprises me is that they didn't add Kizuna Music or Brave Jewel's MV into the game, even though they're already done and ready.

YET ANOTHER 9 2* + 1 3* ROLL

(0.855)^10 = 20.8%
(0.855)^20 = 4%

Blowing up all my stockpile is enough to set me for 4th 2500 roll, because screw Gambler's Fallacy I am furious now. Let's see I can go for (0.855)^30

And after the ridiculous F2P "spending" binge that burned most gems and studio tickets, only one new 2* and 4* (New Year Kokoro).

Who coincidentally happens to have the worst skill set out of four boosted quattro, but I'll take it. Her dose of happiness is enough to drug me over the fact that I ultimately only got one new 2*, one new 3*, and one 4* out of 10k stars.

Congratulations everyone to who got acceptable results though! Nobody should suffer such flashes of Gacha hell.

BRAVE JEWEL was added to the English version of the game! It's also a pretty damn hard 26, so have fun watching pub rooms fail when it gets picked.

EDIT: yay all perfect on Dragon Night, shame I had bad skill RNG and the fact this damn AP star won't show up outside of the challenge live.

Spending the 12.5k free stars I saved got me:

Cool Yukina
Pure Yukina
Power Tae
Event Kokoro
Pure Lisa
Power Kasumi dupe
Power Himari dupe

I'm well set-up for this event (but still short on cool members for the next one). Plus... man it's hard actually getting the Dreamfes members.

Is there any other gacha game out there with such a short stamina timer? Only five hours to go from zero to full is kind of ridiculous when I can use up all my LP in Love Live then put the game down for nearly an entire day before I need to play again to avoid wasting anything.

If anyone didn't log in yet, the first Raise A Suilen song got added today.

I need to find out what the deal with these guys is I guess.

Kizuna Music got its MV added to the JP version of the game, I guess BRAVE JEWEL will get its MV added pretty soon. I hope the MVs get added to the EN version sooner rather than later.

S2 starts airing today so I guess it makes sense. I'm still not expecting MVs to come to the game until the Neo Aspect event.

35 pulls, and all I got was Happy 4* Tsugumi and a bunch of dupes. Not the best DreamFes result, and I didn't even get Penguin Kanon at the last event either. Booh.

Time to start saving for NeoAspect I guess.

Had enough stars to do three ten pulls which got me:
Pull 1: 4* Tae (Dupe), 3* New Year Rinko, 3* Kanon
Pull 2: 4* Nurse Tomoe, 3* Tae
Pull 3: 3* Kokoro (Dupe)

Then I had enough stars left to do 5 individual pulls so I just used them up, 4 of them just got me 2 stars I already had but today's "Excellent Luck" omikuji I got after logging in must have been right because the last one was 4* DreamFes Sayo.

I got excellent luck two days in a row, but it seems that "excellent luck" actually brings the worst possible rolls.

I'm almost inclined to believe that Garupa Pico's destruction of Circle is canon given its complete absence. No idea where season 2 is headed, and I imagine people coming just from the first season can't follow anything, but as a fanservice focus first episode it was alright.

Also, the outfits Popipa had in the op are way better than their current default ones. Give them to me now.

lol JP bang dream has been giving out tons of stars, so I got enough to do one last 10 pull on Dreamfest, got a dupe pirate Misaki and NY Aya. Then I did a single pull and got a dupe 4* pure Tomoe. That's like 5 4*s in 41 pulls, counting NY Kasumi and Dreamfest Lisa I got earlier. Why can't my luck be this good in every gacha?

How many others have leveled up instruments/posters/flyers beyond level 4? Feels like a waste of gems rather than using them to unlock character stories and boost stats.
