I have only legitately tried the song twice. My first attempt I had been awake for 10minutes and feel my skill level was heavily impaired. After the 2nd attempt when actually awake, I just said screw this song and haven't played it since, instead working on 20 clears on a bunch of songs. I might get around to it eventually.

FINALLY A RARE!!! Ended up with a Smile Hanayo though........ #Nomakifaction. I now have every smile but Maki, I need Maki and Nozomi for Pure, and Maki, Umi, and Nozomi for Cool. Hanayo's stats aren't high enough for it to be worth removing my SR cool from my smile team yet, maybe that'll change when I level her up. And I didn't realize the event didn't start until like 6AM my time, so I guess I'll just spam my LP in the morning before class like usual.

The first season does look pretty bad, I guess I'd consider the 2nd as good, but the 3rd is beautiful. Also, the 1st season ( from what I heard ) was a ton of filler, so it would be new content to you

As well as mine, though I'd prefer not a smile one because my smile team is already good. I'm disappointed I couldn't get that SR Pure because that's the only attribute I don't have a SR in now... Cool needs a buff, so a 2nd SR Cool would be welcome.

Too late now, I already downloaded and extracted everything. The next step is to sort out all the instrumentals since I don't care for those. So, maintenance starts in 45min, I decided to save my LP so that i'll have my full 44 when the game comes off maintenance and go full speed at the beginning of the event. I'm getting that SR Umi!

The swimsuit is enough reason to idolize smiling members. Honoka's idolized smile is my favorite of those~

I just went and downloaded nearly every single thing on there except Mogyutto, which said something about a .exe, and that's a big no-no normally, so I canceled. Also, Honoka, Kotori, and Umi solo CDs didn't work...

I got my information from the wiki Just watched the newest episode, and ironically another Eri and Umi shot after I just made a huge post about it. And there was more NicoMaki. The feels that episode... And I like how an instrumental version of Yujo No-Change started up, I'm like, "Hey! I know this song!" 5 Love Gems from doing my next 10+1, and if I don't get a Maki out of that I'm going to flip out. At that point, I might as well be a permanant member of the #Nomakifaction.

This is what I get when I sort by cool, kinda low stats Looks like I haven't auto-arranged in a while since Umi's in that team and both Honoka and Nico have a higher Cool stat.

I also don't see Nozomi being more pure than Kotori... I can see the cool order though. Awesome that Hanayo is the "purest" member of Muse. Oh, and that list is why our Cool team sucks, we don't have Maki yet, and I also don't have a Cool Umi.

Nozomi isn't even supposed to be a Cool, her main attribute is Pure. Sorted by their main attribute and score is level 60 Rare (idolized) Smile: Honoka (4030) Nico (3900) Rin (3840) Pure: Hanayo (3930) Nozomi (3870) Kotori (3810) Cool: Eri (3830) Maki (3720) Umi (3670) Going off just the scores, cool is the lowest stat of the three, which would explain the weakness of my cool team despite having a lot of rares.

My cool team has potential though, since I have a SR cool and 6 other cool rares, I just don't have them leveled up. The last two are my SR Rin and a random Pure Umi who happens to have high Cool stat. Now I know what characters I'm leveling next.

The event song is Cool? Well, I'm screwed, my cool team is my weakest... 25k maybe? And I have a lot of rares, just was leveling up Pure and Smile (fail)

Yeah, rough translation for Kotori's name, Google might actually say small bird, but I just remembered the "bird" part. Still applies though. I'm actually really observant in random things that I enjoy, and I've watched all these music videos so many times recently, it'd make sense that I've picked up on a lot of random things. I wasn't going for an actual pairing between Eri and Umi, I just noticed they were on much friendlier terms in the PVs. And I think I need to download all that music... I know a lot of the duets, trios, solo songs, etc, from Youtube, I just don't have the songs. In fact, I listened to this entire video a couple days ago http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G3Bye46vuk8 Out of those solo songs, I like Rin's and Kotori's the most from what I remember. Well, I've heard it before, and what I posted says there's at least something there lol. I believe in Umi staying alone in the group, along with all 3 2nd years since they're too close already.

1-miss club ftw! So, I have a huge weakness of being super inconsistent on streams, but I managed to pretty much FC this song (I dropped my streak at the very beginning in the easy part like a loser) Just noticed, according to osu! this his the most "difficult" song I've gotten an S on. It probably would have been my best performance if I had the full FC and didn't suck at streams earning only 94%. I'll probably try sometime soon to FC and 96% it.

I so want to FC this song so badly since I love it, but I always miss random notes... Not even on the jumps First miss made me scream, I had over 97% then my nerves got to me after being more than halfway through the song

That also includes Umi. Just did yet another 8 person draw, no rares. Soooo much FP used with no rares, it's crazy.

So, I went through all the PVs to find out about the Umi x Eri thing I was talking about, and found something in multiple PVs, and I took a bunch of screenshots. I noticed a frequent thing they do, when they have characters standing together in a scene, they usually group together three members, and when it shows Eri in a group, Umi is also always there along with some 3rd member (usually Hanayo). That really isn't that significant since they don't match up any other pairs like that, like NicoMaki or HanaRin. But there are specific moments where Umi and Eri are alone. Nothing is suggestive at all, just I noticed they are better friends in the PVs than the anime. I also included random screenshots I wanted to mention something about. Bokura no Live, Kimi to no Life. Also when Eri joins the group in the PV Snow Halation Random thing: You know who she's thinking of And this look always breaks me every time I watch the music video. That expression... Natuiro Egao 1, 2, Jump Mogyutto We see NicoxMaki, HanayoxRin, and not ErixNozomi but ErixUmi (huh?). Another small thing I found odd since they obviously ship Eri and Nozomi in the anime. Random thing: The 1st episode of S2 of the anime references a scene in this PV. About 2/3 way through, Honoka gets a solo, and throws the mic in the air at the end of the solo. And in the anime, she does the same thing Wonderful Rush Random thing: Rin isn't wearing shorts, pants, etc. It's kinda a 1-piece jacket that looks like a skirt, showing her bare legs in public. Looks like a jacket, but still *shrugs* Random thing: In the PV around the end, tons of birds are flying around, and the PV is at an airport. Ironically, Kotori's name translates to bird if Google isn't wrong. Music Start Though, the Nozomi+Eri has Honoka nearby, but Nozomi is closer. W/e Not a while lot in this video, mostly typical girls having fun. A lot of Rin zoom ins in this video though This took a while to type, and I also naturally type Eli, and tried to correct myself every time I did it, but I might have missed a couple. All this and I don't really care about Umi or Eri xD

Don't lose hope until your next 10+1! I'm still conflicted about doing it since there isn't a Rin UR in there...

I was joking, it's just that I've only played online three times and all three times I was being destroyed skill wise by players lower rank than me because of how I trained. That song was the first one I attempted with AR9 and was my obsession to pass a while ago. I tried it again 2 days ago and got 98.15% (not home for screenshot). It's a calming song and pretty high OD (8 I think)

Maef is talking about me in there with my 20k rank I was being overwhelmed by his choices of map. In my case, I just grinded jumpy maps and nothing else so I lack in many areas of skill. @Kenshin: That's awesomely planned, but one thing I suggest is that if you are using DT+HR on a song on Hard, you're pretty much ready for Insane. DT+HR is crazy high Approach Rate, higher than you play on almost all Insane without score mods.

I know the main one is Eli and Nozomi, but I've seen Eli and Umi and that made me notice how Eli and Umi seem better friends in the PVs than the anime. And is the official romanization of her name Eli or Eri? I always spelled it as Eli because that's how MAL spelled it. Also, I'd show some examples but I'm not home and on my computer right now. And I asked about your rares because you sound like you have my luck from my first week where I got like 25 rares (including the10+1) right away. I haven't seen a rare for like 3-4 days now and I play at every moment I have LP unless I am asleep, as well as FCing and S ranking to grt like 10k friend points off those alone and several play count awards.

I'm drawing a blank on S2 for some reason, but I rewatched S1 and Umi just seems to respect Eli's dancing ability and otherwise isn't seen interacting with her in any way. But in the music videos (I need to rewatch to catch most scenes) there's specific instances in them where you see Umi and Eli alone. One I can think of off the top my head is in Bokura wa Ima no Naka de, there's a scene of someone (Honoka?) running up to the room and it shows Umi and Eli walking together in the hallway. Then it also shows the scene where Eli joins the group in the PV and Umi practically throws herself on Eli's back in support. Granted Umi's personality along with everyone else's isn't really fully developed before the 4th PV, some things stay consistent, like in Snow Halation, Umi and Rin are the only two not wearing skirts, and we know Umi doesn't like them while Rin doesn't feel right in them. I'm overanalyzing again

Hey Nosebleed, I had a couple unrelated questions. How many rares have you gotten overall, including repeats? And in the manga of Love Live, how close are Eli and Umi? I noticed in the music videos they seem a lot more friendly but it's definitely not portrayed that way in the anime. @Shero: Congrats~ That song definitely has a very frustrating part and felt good to FC

Ceris - 776023364 My offer still stands that I will change my lead from a SR Smile to a SR Cool if anyone needs it.
