We went to the movie today in our city, did anyone else go to see it this weekend??

To start off this thread, who is your best girl?
Least favorite girl?
Do you play School Idol Festival? If yes, if you wish to share, what is your ID code?
What's an upcoming set or UR you wish to have?
What's an upcoming event SR you're hoping to get?
Do you like to tier in events?
Bibi, Lily White, or Printemps?

For me, best girls are Kotori and Nozomi. I can't decide which of the two I like better, so they're tied for first for me. Worst girl is Hanayo... I'm just not a fan. :<

For upcoming set, I'm not too sure. I really like the ninja set that just came out in Japan. I can't wait to see Nozomi and Kotori! Upcoming, UR wise, I so want that Halloween Nozomi! The unidolized card embodies her mischievous side so well, and the idolized is amazingly gorgeous. After that, I'd say Job V. 2 Kotori, and then Marine Nozomi. For cards that have already been released, I'd love to have idolized China Dress and Fairy Tale Kotori! ;-; Hopefully KLab will bring over those guaranteed SR boxes for us!

The event SR I'm looking forward to next is the rice goddess Hanayo event next month. I said this in the community thread, but that card is perfect for her and it's really cute. (:

I tend to tier Score Match events just because I can. I still haven't tiered any token events. They're so tedious, I find them so hard to do!
Also, screw the last score match we just had. Ended up using two love gems to get that PL Honoka card. :C

Lily White for life.

My Love Live: School Idol Festival ID: 231402564 - I show up as /μ/Jen
I totally recommend joining the https://www.reddit.com/r/SchoolIdolFestival/, too, the /μ/ is a tag to recognize other players from there. ^^

Spain is not one of the countries that are showing the movie, so I'd have to wait for a domestic release and watch it online or something. I still have to watch the anime, though.

As I mentioned in the community thread, Umi/Hanayo best girls, can't stand Nico.
Future sets, let me check... the only one that caught my attention was the ninja one.

For the events, I'll be trying to tier in the one for rice goddess Hanayo. Origami onigiri too cute


I don't usually try to tier unless I really like the card/I know from beforehand that there won't be much competition (because the girl is not popular and/or the event is before/after one for a more popular girl), though there have been times where I had a good start and tried to tier because why not. I've only tiered (not tier 1, though) in two token events in a row, clam digging Hanayo and hiking Honoka.

Aaaand my favorite unit is lily white. One girl from each attribute, one girl from each year, it's perfectly balanced (¿?).



I'll add a question of my own. What is/are your favorite song/s? I'd say mine is Anone Ganbare (though it eventually became a sort of love-hate relationship because I needed over 70 tries and a team full of lock cards to FC it). I also like Start: Dash, Takaramonos and Soldier Game.


My ID is in my signature. I think I have a full list, but I should be able to make some room.

To start off this thread, who is your best girl?
- NICO<3 (Second best is Maki no doubt!)

Least favorite girl?
- Currently not come across any I "hate" yet, but prolly will in sometime xD

Do you play School Idol Festival? If yes, if you wish to share, what is your ID code?
- Rarely, casual player. I play every once in a.... blue moon :P

What's an upcoming set or UR you wish to have?
What's an upcoming event SR you're hoping to get?
- To both of these I need to answer "Idk yet" cause I'm not fully up to date with everything due to being a casual player and stuff, sorry ^^;

Do you like to tier in events?
- Nah I just do my thing and that's it.

Bibi, Lily White, or Printemps?
- BiBi cause Nico and Maki (duh!)

Favorite song
- Not sure yet.

Posted by: Kirshia Sep 14 2015, 03:03 PM

Ah, the movie I'll never legally see (and get the promos for) because apparently Europe doesn't exist :') I hope it was fun!

Best girls: Nozomi and Maki. Nozomi hates me tho :')

Worst girl: Nico. I just can't stand her.

I play SIF on two servers, EN and JP. My EN ID is 382840465. I show up as Ser, rank 96, UR Maki as center.

I'm definitely looking forward to the White Day set. The URs are gorgeous as usual, but I would be satisfied with any card. Even Nico. They're all so beautiful.

Event SR I want? FAIRY NOZOMI. I WILL TIER IN HER EVENT AND IDOLIZE HER. EVEN IF I HAVE TO BUY LOVECA.

I've never tiered in any event before. I usually allow myself to fall to T5. Loveca is better than green tickets, soloyolos are evil.

I don't really have a favorite unit. None of them has all of my faves, I focus more on songs, and each unit has at least one song I love and one I hate. :p

Favorite song? Merfes vol. 1! It's the first (and still only) one I S-cleared, long before I even C-cleared the other ones. I can listen to it for hours.

Posted by: Pyotr Sep 14 2015, 04:40 PM

Maki best girl, that's all I have to say about this. She overshadows the other girls
(I don't play the game though)

Posted by: eevee64 Sep 15 2015, 10:42 AM

Ahh so jealous you got to go to the movie! I had other things on at the same time as the movie was on in my city, so I didn't get to go

My best girl is Maki, followed by Nico <3 and my least favourite is Hanayo.

I only started playing like a week ago, so haven't made too much progress, but have been addicted to it! My ID is in my signature, feel free to add me...I've gone through and added everyone from here
Because I'm so new to the game, I'm not really up with the latest events and stuff just yet. But I really love the idolised versions of all the girls in the cafe maid set, so I'd love one of them. And definitely Bibi <3

My favourite songs so far would be Snow Halation and Start Dash

Posted by: Jen Sep 15 2015, 01:50 PM

KOTORI'S NINJA CARD!

Definitely going to need to save for this set. The Nico card is adorable too, ahhh!
The Dancing Stars on Me set is pretty cute too! I'm probably going to get a JP account soon, it's so hard to not be able to play on it and have all the new things! haha

Fav Songs: I love everything Lily White (most fav would have to be binetsu kara mystery (that EX) followed by anone ganbare), Kaguya, Wonderful Rush, Soldier Game, Daring!!, After School Navigators (especially on EX). It's hard to choose favs though, so many fun songs to listen and play through, plus I haven't heard much of the later level songs either yet. ^^

Lune, you can look at all the cards http://schoolido.lu/cards/! It gives an idea of what's to come and future events and stuff. You should definitely check out Nico's newest UR if you haven't seen it yet!

Kirshia, awww sorry about the movie. :c
Yeah, definitely love gems > tickets. haha. Every time I'm tempted to solo yolo, I just tell myself to think of all my past failures and what I've seen of other people's solos on youtube. The chances suck man. lol

Pyotr - but why not
If you do start playing, definitely try to get an account that starts with a UR.. trust me D;

Heh. We had comic con over here during the weekend as well. There was a panel that I really wanted to see that had Manu Bennett on it (Villians of Arrow panel), but he ended up no showing because he got arrested, so I'm REALLY glad the movie was in town that day or I would have been so sorely disappointed going to comic con and not being able to see the person I wanted to see. hah. Talk about crazy. @_@

I went and traded my two Umi promo codes for a Kotori and a Nozomi. So glad to have them and that the trades went well.. I was nervous having to trust other people to send their codes.. heh. ^^; I'll be switching back to a better main once the event starts. (:

Which leads into the Umi event that starts tomorrow! I'm ready for the next rotation of EX songs.. more love gems! :P Also probably going to try to grind Wonderful Rush, I'm half way to SSS'ing it on hard. (:

Posted by: North Star Sep 15 2015, 03:47 PM

Yeah, I'm looking forward to the new EX songs. My absolute favorite plus other two songs I like a lot (and Love Marginal I guess)? Cool.

I finished SSS'ing Start: Dash on hard, so the next one will be Takaramonos. Or Cutie Panther, because I have few friends with pure mains and I like to get fp with each play.


@Jen: I remember listening to After School Navigators for the first time and reacting like "...wow". Then I looked up the lyrics and I can't take it seriously anymore xD It's the same with Cutie Panther, really catchy but wow so possessive.

Posted by: Kirshia Sep 16 2015, 04:38 AM

I got so excited about the new EX songs, then failed the first one I played. Right at the end, too. Gimme back my Merfes ;_;

@Jen:
I'll be rerolling a few (read: 650+) JP accounts later today, should I let you know if I scout anything interesting?

LAZOR BEAMS.

Posted by: eevee64 Sep 16 2015, 10:44 AM

I've just seen the ninja cards and they are so adorable! I like the Nico and Kotori ones the best. I also managed to get a china dress Honoka today, which I was pretty happy about

This Umi event thing that started today is my first event, so I'm having fun working my way through it. I can see me playing too much of this game now...

Posted by: Jen Sep 16 2015, 09:56 PM

Grats! Do you play the same song over and over again? I get to the point where I'm totally motivated to do it, and then I'll play it twice and feel the need for a change already. lol Ugh!

I haven't actually looked up the lyrics to either songs. :P
I'm curious, but... I dunno now! haha. They're so fun to play and yeah, definitely catchy! ^^


Awwww nooooo. Which song was it? ):
I still have a lot of trouble with 11*+ songs. I use my thumbs and I think those songs are more for fingers. I don't know. hah

I'm really interested in what you roll!! If you get any qt kotos (especially fairy tale) and nozos (especially halloween) I'm definitely interested. *_* I hope your rolls go well!

YES. Favorite part. lol
The part after the lasers is what gets me. I don't know what it's called... a bridge maybe? It's too fast for my thumbs to keep up!


China Dress Honoka is so cute! Grats! (:
hahah... you're getting sucked into idol hell now.. you can never escape!!! :P

Speaking of idol hell, I couldn't resist the 2nd years GARUANTEED SR, and used 50 of my gems. Was so hoping for a kotori, any kind of kotori. Okay, there was definite hope for a UR kotori there, but still. I have a few that I can idolize and I'd really like to upgrade my mermaid one. I also have a China Dress Honoka that would be gorgeous idolized, so I was really hoping for something of those two.

Out comes the 11 cards.

1 SR.

RNG LUCK WHY.

Turns out to be a fairy tale Umi.

AND WHAT DOES SHE DO RIGHT AWAY?



RUDE.
(she legitimately has my number though, i don't get normally dressed if i'm not doing anything lol. hurts deep.)

She is now my main though because clearly she wanted to be the face of my account for this event. :3

I get paid tomorrow, so I'm going to buy my 50 gems back. It was just so exciting that the limited boxes finally got the SR guarantee, AND it was 2nd years, so I caved. Back to holding out for Nozo! *_*

Now that the limited boxes are out which are you most tempted to splurge in? My temptations are 2nd years, lily white, and 3rd years. >_<

Posted by: North Star Sep 17 2015, 06:38 AM

Depends on the song and my mood. Sometimes I spam a song as long as I have LP, sometimes I alternate with other songs (usually another one I'm SSS'ing).


I play with my thumbs too, and I feel I won't get better at expert songs that way. But after seven months playing that way it feels weird to use more fingers ;w;



That Umi quote reminds me that China Dress Kotori talks about pajamas in her side story. She thinks silk pajamas would be nice and wants to make them for you and for herself (and one of her menu quotes also has her offering to make you pajamas)


I think I have never used the limited scouting, but now that it has guaranteed SRs I might try it when I have enough gems and there isn't anything else to use them on atm.



Good luck everyone with the event!

Posted by: Jen Sep 19 2015, 03:21 PM

I got a JP account. :D I'm still interested in a UR starter account though, Kirshia, if you're still up for it! I think my boyfriend is interested in getting a JP account too. I'd rather him post and say he's interested, buuuut his favorite is the little Nico ni! I realized that the cards that I requested aren't in the regular student scouting, so if it helps, I love Jobs v2 Kotori and Marine Nozomi. ^^;

I already solo'd an SR nozomi though, so that's pretty good luck! (: I did the friend point scouts until I got an R card and then used my love gems. Second time that theory worked out for me. hehe. :3 (I know it's all RNG tho ^^)

I really like this event song!! It sounds like an opening to an anime! I loved that about Eli's event song too except it sounded like an ending. hah!

Posted by: eevee64 Sep 20 2015, 07:29 AM

I'm loving the event song too! It's nice that it's a good song, otherwise I'd get really sick of it playing it so many times.

Happy about the Bibi scouting that's happening for the next couple of days! I spent my 50 love gems to get the 11 scouts...0 Maki, 1 Nico and 10 Elis XD Eli loves me apparently. Though that meant I could idolise a few Elis, and I managed to get Maki in the free daily scout

Posted by: Jen Sep 25 2015, 03:58 PM

eevee64 - What ended up being the SR of that bunch?

Alright, just purchased $15 in love gems for this upcoming event. I'm kind of expecting some competition for this one since I've been reading the comments on http://schoolido.lu/events/Score%20Match%20Round%2013/ I know people say these things for all events, but this card idolized is too wonderful to pass up!

This Umi event has made it so that all my teams are SR only. No more promo cards! EN, please throw me a bone when I scout for Nozomi. I might only get 3 10 + 1 scouts for her, but that will also give me five blue tickets, so hopefully...! *crosses fingers*

My JP account has already reached 50 love gems as well. Kirshia pulled a wonderful starter account that ended up getting 2 URs on it - Jobs v2 Kotori and a White Day Hanayo! *___* Though I have to admit, that the noise that Kotori makes when her skill activates in song is one of the most irritating things I've heard in this game. It's a really loud and high pitched "HAAAIIIIII" lol. I'm like Kotori whyyy. haha! Love her though. <3

I'm really glad that I messed around with JP before obtaining this account though, too. In the first one I kept using my friend points to scout to build up my album, but I did it so much that I ended up having no room too often, because I tried to keep them all to idolize and bond them. This time I'm focusing on the Ns that come from the regular songs and building them up first with bond, level, and idolization so that they can be used as fodder for when I start friend point scouting. Lesson learned. hah!

Anxiously awaiting to see what the new set is going to be once the new month hits!

Posted by: eevee64 Sep 27 2015, 08:21 AM

@Jen - The SR was cheerleader Eli

Posted by: Ayy Lmao Oct 2 2015, 10:54 PM

So yeah, http://youtu.be/5Z47MjSrem0 is a thing now.

Posted by: North Star Oct 8 2015, 06:22 AM

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CQyLlFgWcAA7u99.jpg:large I spent a bit more loveca than I needed, but it was worth it.

and of course the scouting ticket had to give me a R I already got a bazillion times


Last week I marathoned both seasons of the anime, it was nice. The 3D in the dance parts felt weird, but besides that I guess I liked the series.


Oh, and Aqours' first single is already out. The song is ok, but I still see the girls as recolors/expies of the original nine =/

Posted by: Jen Oct 8 2015, 08:16 PM

Grats, North Star!! Haha, that line that she's saying there. (:

I ended up not going for it and decided to sit in T3. I wanted as many chances as possible for the Nozomi, so I decided to keep my Love Gems. x)

Here's the album I shared on Reddit: http://imgur.com/a/U6qk2 ^^

YEEEAAAAAHHH!
I hope you guys have been needing a friend with a Smile center, because dang I feel helpful now. hehe.

My boyfriend did 4 10 + 1's last night with me too. He split it up between the third years box and the new one though, 2 in each. He was able to idolize fruit stand Nico, got maid nico, and some others. I'm pretty sure that puts him at 6 10 + 1's.. i'm really hoping he doesn't end up having my luck. <_>

It's kind of funny too, his favorite was Nico from watching the show. Now he's really growing to like Hanayo a lot more. At first it was because of how much I didn't like her, but his very first 10 + 1 scout got him the maid Hanayo and since he was using her, he got to see her lines on the home screen and thinks she's hilarious. lol

Posted by: teakay Oct 15 2015, 08:36 PM

Oh my gosh Jen how were you able to save up 200 Love Gems ? I'm so weak when it comes to collect them, I always cave at around 50 or 60 :')

I really need to get back into it though, I'm getting an iPhone 6 tomorrow so hopefully a bigger screen will help motivate me. I don't really know how I'll be able to get to Rank 100 something though, it's really amazing seeing how good people are at this game ! I mean, I could full combo quite a few EX songs when I was really hooked on it, but I know people who can FC every song

Posted by: Jen Oct 17 2015, 01:53 PM

I saved up about 80 through the game itself, the rest was bought. :3 My JP account has 216 love gems right now. If the next set is KotoZomi... eeee *_* I would prefer to have more pulls, but I'm excited for that set! Hopefully it won't be as awful as this Animals V2 set. >.>

I play on an iPhone 6 Plus and the size is perfect. My boyfriend has a 6 and it's too small for me! haha. I'm just used to the bigger screen though. (:

How is everyone doing during this Rin event?
I'm at the point where her card won't even make it on my team, hah! I'm still playing songs, so I'll hopefully get her if anything just to have for the seal shop later. I love Rin Rin Rin though, the song is so cute and catchy. Can't wait for Nozomi's song for her next event. hehe

Posted by: eevee64 Oct 18 2015, 12:50 AM

I haven't gotten very far in the event...probably won't even get the SR Rin at this rate. I've been pretty busy, plus I don't really like the song so I don't have much motivation to do it ^^" I just want a Maki/Nozomi/Nico event

I started playing on my iPhone 6, but then I moved to my iPad...the big screen is amazing!

Posted by: teakay Oct 19 2015, 05:08 PM

Is anyone prepared for the Eli event that's taking play later tonight in the JPN version ? She looks so cool, I can't wait to add her to my team !!

Posted by: Jen Oct 19 2015, 07:54 PM

It's looking like I won't be getting the Rin SR. EN needs more available songs to play especially on expert. ;-;

Eli looks amazing! Her event will be my first Medfest, which reminds me that I need to actually figure out how that works exactly. ^^ But yep, I plan on getting her! My smile are pure teams are shot right now, so they need all the help they can get. haha (:

http://decaf.kouhi.me/lovelive/index.php?title=Gameplay#Medley_Festival It seems like the best options are the event point and EXP increasers. Does anyone have any go to favorites?

Posted by: teakay Oct 21 2015, 08:56 PM

To be honest I don't really like using the EXP increaser, but that's mainly because I'm afraid of running out of money too quick. The score and point increasers are the best imo and the 5 good/bad transformation option isn't as good as you'd think it'd be. Really it all depends on what you're playing for and how much you have though ? I'm only a Rank 54 and have 600k and I'm totally determined to get Eli idolized so I've been pushing all my coins to increase points

I didnt' know about the gold silver and bronze places though, it explains all the extra goodies ! I wish I could play the 3 EX song option, I would totally love to get a ticket or SR support member

Posted by: Jen Nov 2 2015, 08:16 PM

What are your thoughts on the new set? I absolutely adore Kotori, especially her idolized card, but I decided to only do two 10 + 1s for her and save the remaining four for Nozomi. I really think she's going to be super gorgeous and I'd probably regret not saving the majority of my pulls for her. hah. Can't wait to see her!

I love the ballgown dresses. Very reminiscent of my favorite Disney movie!

I think I've finally decided which set I'm going to save for next on EN. The Magician set! I need my queens, and thankfully they come together! It's too bad the marine Nozomi is right after since I love her UR in that set. I'd love to do some white day set pulls, but I think it would be best if I waited to pull from the pick up box so that way both Kotozomi can be pulled together.

As for the current event, I'm getting along. She won't make it on my team, but that's okay. ^^

Posted by: eevee64 Nov 6 2015, 03:26 AM

I managed to get the SR Eli from the event that just finished without having to spend a bunch of Love Gems like I had to for the Hanayo event, so I was happy about that. It's also nice to see how much better I've gotten at the game. Last score match event I'd only been playing for a for a week or so, so I struggled a bit with my rankings and combos. But this time around, I was getting a lot of A and S combos and ranking 1st or 2nd. Now I need to try some more expert songs! I'm just happy to see I've improved

My mum saw me playing SIF a couple of days ago and was going on about how good it is for your hand-eye coordination. So she's played a couple of songs because she thought it would do her some good :P

I love the look of the constellation set Maki and Nozomi are so gorgeous! I haven't had any luck getting any of them though.

Posted by: Jen Dec 1 2015, 12:45 AM

Alright, time to update. My JP account is looking good with nearly all SR teams already. o.o I know my cool team is completely SR+, so yeah, JP is crazy. xD

I did two 10 + 1's during Victorian Kotori, got pool Maki, Marine Honks, and Cyber Umi. I regret not going all out for Kotori since I ended up liking her UR more, but that just means I know better for EN. :333

Definitely worst case scenario stuff there. Looks like my "luck" has carried over from EN to JP. haha. I'm so appreciative of the starter account you gave me, Kirshia. This is how it's looking nowadays.


Just a little outdated since I now have the Umi score match card. (:

On EN I did a 10 + 1 since I realized I would fill up the counter and get a fifth blue ticket. Got a second copy of mermaid Rin and was able to idolize her. A great boost to my cool team for sure! Cooking Eli was obtained from the blue ticket scout. I really needed a healer on my Pure team (Yume no Tobira EX kicked my butt during the Nozomi token event).

Buuuut I did manage to tier for the first time on a token event so that was exciting! Had to do it for my gay boob fairy <3 haha

Working on tiering for Kotori right now. Been sitting in T2 since yesterday, so just have to keep that up.
Edit: Successfully tier 2'd Kotori.

I plan on tiering for the Maki and Nico events too... hopefully Nico doesn't come until the middle or later in the month so the EX's are lined up with the event.

So yeah, how have you guys been with your idols!?

I'm loving the unidolized charoling set. Eli is beyond gorgeous.

Posted by: eevee64 Dec 14 2015, 05:36 AM

I'm quite enjoying this new event format! It seems a lot easier to get event points than the other event types. Also, Maki is the only one I don't have an SR or UR for, so I really want to get this event done to get her

I also managed to save up 50 love gems to do some scouting, and managed to get 3 SRs in that so I was super happy! I got Eli and Hanayo from the Snowy Mountain set, and Nico from the May set.

Posted by: North Star Dec 14 2015, 07:45 AM

Yep, this event is a godsend. With the event points booster I can get a little over 1k with three experts, and since the first day I got hooked to the medleys I already got the SR. The tradeoff is that it's difficult to get to the higher tiers, but I wasn't planning to do it so...

On my birthday I decided to spend the three tickets I had and surprisingly I got two SR out of them... but they were both cool and I still suffer a big lack of non-R healers. Oh well.

Also, I like some of the changes that came with the big update. Using the phone's back button to navigate the menus is nice, and I already used the extra party slots to arrange some new teams - I made teams for the three units, in preparation for the update that'll introduce titles, even if it's far away.

Posted by: Luneon Jan 8 2016, 02:27 PM

To be fair I haven't used it in a while(and forgot about this thread >__<), but just now I stumbled upon this super cute Love Live picture.

Heard there's another event going on, but I think I'm gonna skip, what do you guys think?

Posted by: Espurr Jan 9 2016, 05:15 AM

Well I guess I'll pop in here since Im a regular LoveLive (cos)player! I play on both EN and JP! The Hanayo event is going on right now in EN but Im not planning on tiering it since Im saving up my loveca for the Valentines Day UR Nozomi (she's paired with Rin) coming up! The next event after Hanayo will be a Honoka Token Event so I don't think I'll be tiering that event either even if I do really like her idolized form, since I do terrible at token events.

Posted by: North Star Jan 9 2016, 07:23 AM

I wasn't planning to tier in the medfes because I had few loveca (about 7/8), but since it's easy to get points and Hanayo events have less competition I decided to go for it. I hope I can manage to do it

Posted by: Jen Jan 9 2016, 08:33 PM

I really love that collaboration picture!

Do you have any pictures of your cosplays, Espurr? I'd love to see them! (:

I just got Hanayo today, but I'm not planning on spending any Love Gems on it since she's not one of my best girls. It IS tempting though, because she's the http://schoolido.lu/cards/?is_event=on&rarity=SR&attribute=Smile&ordering=idolized_maximum_statistics_smile&reverse_order=on (idolized) according to tomodachi.

Good luck, North Star!

I want to tier for any Nozo and Kotori events coming up though! For not best girls, I definitely want military Maki, Steampunk Eli, and Jungle Safari Umi. The disco Umi is super tempting too for her stats. I'm saving for Magician Kotori and Nozomi though, so I want to have enough for a couple of pulls. Currently have 63 love gems, so I have some time. x3

I really like the circus set. Brings me back to my Panic! at the disco days. ^^

Posted by: Espurr Jan 13 2016, 07:30 AM

Sure do! Here's my Wonderful Rush Nozomi and my full group as well! I was so excited to do this cosplay and Im planning on doing Unidolized Initial SR Nozomi and SR Valentine's Nozo at an upcoming con!


I'm planning on scouting twice for UR Valentine's Day Nozo and I'm also going to be doing a Blue Ticket scout then its time for saving for Magician Kotori! Oddly enough I actually didn't like that card/set when it initially came out but now I'm planning on cosplaying the Kotori/Maki duo (both unidolized and idolized) with the Hanayo from my group!

Posted by: North Star Jan 14 2016, 07:35 AM

@Espurr Those are really nice cosplays! I like that last photo, it's like "wtf are you doing".


The cutoffs ended lower than expected. Yesterday I was suspecting t2 wouldn't reach 60k and I turned out to be right. Got my idolized Kayo-chin and a ticket I haven't used yet. I think I'll keep using tickets when I get them, but I'll try to save gems until we get the seal shop in EN.


Good luck everyone with your scouts~

Those are AWESOME, Espurr! Wonderful Rush is one of my favorites - Kotori lead!

Did you guys perform the dance? Did you meet on a facebook group? tumblr? That's so cool that you all were able to organize that together. x) You all look great!

How did your Nozomi Valentine scout go?? (:

Grats on T2, North Star!

Are any of y'all going to try to tier for this Honks? I like this card idolized, but I'm only going to put in enough effort to get the unidolized and stop there. (:

Posted by: eevee64 Feb 16 2016, 01:18 AM

I've been looking ahead to the upcoming events, and gosh the idolised Eli in the next Medley Festival is absolutely gorgeous I think I might try and tier for her! I've never tried tiering in an event before so hopefully I can do it ^^ Time to start saving my Love Gems :P

Posted by: Jen Feb 28 2016, 07:34 PM

It's looking like you've got it in the bag, Eevee! Early grats! (: How was your first tiering experience!?

I can't wait for the song unlock after this event. It should be Spicaterrible, which is my faaaavorite Kotori song. <3

I kept saying that I was going to save up for Magician Kotori, but I ended up splurging in the April - July Pick up box. I have so many cards from those sets, so I was trying to idolize some! It was a succes! I idolized my fairy tale Rin, got 2 fruit stand Nicos, and then a single copy of wedding Hanayo. The blue ticket scout got me an animal version 1 Nozomi. No URs - go figure. ;_; The ones that I really wanted to idolize were my fairy tale Nozomi and Mermaid Kotori, but oh well. Maybe another time. I'd also really like bride Kotori and Nozomi for waifu reasons. rofl

I really love the circus set. I need those idolized cards in my life. i didn't realize i had already said this.. oops D;
I'm excited to see what the next set will be! *looks at end of JP event* Oh wait, it's going to be revealed tonight!? I thought for sure tomorrow. Oh man, I can't wait for tonight even more now! hah

Edit: huh.. not a huge fan of the set, but i think Honks and Eli are gorgeous!

Posted by: eevee64 Mar 1 2016, 03:38 AM

Thanks! I'm super happy that I managed to do it It was fun for a change actually trying to outrank people and not just stopping once I get the SR :P I was panicking a bit towards the end of the event though...it finished at 4pm my time but I had classes at uni from 1-6pm, so I was scared there would be a last minute rush of people trying to tier and I'd fall out of the top 5000 ^^" But all's well that ends well!

Not that fussed on the idolised SRs for the next few events (the unidolised versions are cuter imo :P), but I think I'll try tiering again in the Military Maki event.

The next sets I like the look of are the Cyber and Magician ones

Posted by: Jen Mar 1 2016, 03:53 PM

That's awesome! Glad to you hear you had fun! I know those last hour rushes can be super stressful, I can't imagine being in class or at work during that time. It's always like.. 1 or 2 am here when the events end, so I just have to stay up a bit late, but I can keep up if I need to. ^^

Did you get a lot of scouting tickets? I got a grand total of 0 from the actual Med Fest... I'm glad we still get 1 with the final prizes though!

I've been thinking about maybe trying to do my first Tier 1 rush for the next Kotori. I love everything about her, both unidolized and idolized. I've yet to tier a Medley Fest either, so it will all be new! I look forward to joining you in the Maki event - I'm always keeping an eye on where my friends are in the events and how I compare to them.. lol. I love Trouble Busters, so I'm ready and excited!!! baha

Posted by: eevee64 Mar 4 2016, 10:30 AM

I think I got 2 or 3 scouting tickets from the actual Med Fest ^^

I find the Med Fests a lot easier to earn event points in than the other event types, so it didn't feel like I put in too much effort to tier in it - I'm sure you'll be fine getting Kotori! The token events are the ones I struggle with most, so it's going to be harder for me to tier in Maki's event ^^" I'll have to try and keep up with you! haha. For my favourite girl, I only have one SR of Maki (the Christmas one from the first Med Fest), which I'm not happy about... I aim to change that!

Posted by: Jen Mar 28 2016, 02:29 AM

I recorded my scouts in the Kotori box on JP: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kjgrg6nrV6w

Too cool, I can't wait for these to come to EN!

The big update is going to come NEXT MONTH! Like, holy crap, a good three months early! That's amazing! I'm so excited! I should have enough R's for at least 4 blue tickets, and I definitely have some SR's that I'm ready to sacrifice for more. >) Currently nearing 250 LGs, but as I mentioned earlier, I plan on tiering the next two events, so we'll see how much I have left after that (but then again duh, we'll be getting a free love gem daily by then). I'm sure I'll still buy more to have more shots at Magician Kotori and Nozomi though. I can't wait!

I'm also really excited for Aqours. I know that means the originals won't be focused on anymore, but I'm so ready! I already compare Riko and Kanan to Kotori and Nozomi, so those are my two favs so far.

Posted by: North Star Mar 28 2016, 06:44 AM

Wait, the seal shop update next month? That's awesome, I have less space than I'd like because of the R cards I got through fp scouting or as live rewards (I had to buy some expansions after the last medfes).

I'm almost out of gems since I did a 11-roll recently, but I pulled a Hanayo SR and a Nozomi SR that turned out to be a healer, something I really needed because my smile team was the only one with non-R heals. And then one of the tickets from the offline event special login got me a second copy of that Hanayo x3 The ticket I got from this event became an initial R Nico (ugh), but I decided to do a single roll and got a SR Hanayo... from the set they introduced today, I think.

Posted by: Jen Mar 28 2016, 01:27 PM

Yes! It was confirmed at the Boston event. I think it's going to be after the Kotori Medfest, someone said it was mentioned that it would be in 2-3 weeks.

Nice! I love healers, they can for sure be life savers when you're about to fail. rofl
Hanayo really loves you! Which one were you able to idolize!?

Posted by: Pyotr Mar 28 2016, 10:17 PM

I actually started playing this the other day, and from the 10+1 rolls with the gift gems from the mail, I got 3 SRs. All 3 were Nico, and among the R cards, another 3 of them were Nico. Can't believe I got 6 of the worst girl and no Maki, but I'm going strong

(At least I got an Eli R)

Posted by: North Star Mar 29 2016, 07:21 AM

Yep, I like to keep a healer in my teams despite the stats. The R Umi I run in my cool team has often saved me from beasts like Binetsu EX

The Hanayo was the one from the latest Valentine's set. I'm glad I can get so many cards of her, but I'd like to get Umi even if it's just once... I think she's the only girl I've never rolled (R cards aside of course)



Ouch. But getting three SRs early is still nice

Posted by: eevee64 Mar 29 2016, 10:22 AM

I didn't know about this Seal Shop until now, it sounds pretty cool! I was thinking of getting rid of a few Rs to make some room, but I think I'll hold onto those for now until the update comes ^^

@Pyotr I feel you...Maki is my best girl too and I only have the one SR of her, but Hanayo is my least favourite and I have the most SRs (7) and a UR of her Though I have 6 SRs of Eli who's my equal second favourite so I can't complain too much :P

I've had a change of heart for the upcoming Kotori event...considering it's a MedFest I think I might try and tier. Though I don't want to spend to many Love Gems so I'll see how that goes ^^" I'm really saving up for the Maki event, as I said earlier, and I also want a couple of shots at UR Cyber Nico and UR Magician Maki when they come out soon

*____*

Pls pls pls let my luck be that good when Magician Kotori comes out on EN
pls

I did two 10 + 1's hoping for a second copy, but got 1 SRs both times from different sets. Victorian Nico and Taisho Umi. ^^;

Oohh eevee, I really like that new graphic in your sig!
I saw what happened during the Maki event too... sorry.

I'm really sad about 3.0 not happening in April. Hopefully it will be soon! There's a really long break between the Hanayo event and Nico event though, so I could see it happening then, but we'll see.

Posted by: eevee64 May 1 2016, 02:35 AM

Congrats on the Kotori!
I'm so keen for the magician set...Maki will be mine! *hangs lucky charms everywhere* I'll accept magician Eli as a consolation prize too :P

Thanks! I'm going to make similar sig graphic things for a few other sets I love, like the magician and cafe maid ones ^^ I don't like Honoka, Umi, Rin and Hanayo enough to be bothered to include them in there hehe
Still devastated over the Maki event It was the first time I'd tried to tier in a token event, so at least next time I'll know what to expect.

I've got a little bit of a break in events I want to tier in now...next one I'm going for is Masquerade Eli And yesterday I realised I had 5 blue tickets (no idea how long they'd been sitting there for ^^" ). No UR, but managed to get my second bride Rin so I could idolise her! Not a Rin fan, but her idolised bride card is actually quite pretty.

Posted by: Espurr May 9 2016, 06:25 AM

Checking back in here as well! I'm also saving up for Magician set, specifically Kotori as well! It's taken a lot to not scout, but Im at 100 loveca and 9 scouting tickets! Hopefully we'll get the v3 update after the event since Im running out of space and I also want the tasks so I can get more loveca XD

For my Scouting/Event Adventures since:
I did end up getting Valentines Nozo, I got her in my first 10+1 pull I did! (Ive been saving for Kotori since then). I finally tier 1'd on an event, specifically the last Rin token event (the baseball one). I also ended up doing a scouting when the BREAD Honk UR came out on JP and I got her! I did the Honoka box as well when it was out, did 3 scouts, 1st scout I got an SR (which I cant remember lol), 2nd scout I got another White Day Honk (yay for idolizing that) and Cafe Maid and then on my 3rd scout I got UR Initial Honk! So Honk currently leads all my teams on JP!

There's only two more sets to go on JP once Rin gets released next! Umi/Nico and Nozomi/Honoka, Im looking forward to seeing their themes~

Posted by: North Star May 13 2016, 06:54 AM

Get ready to empty your present boxes and burn fp like there's no tomorrow, because 3.0 is coming on Monday! And they've applied retroactive exp with today's update, so plan your next level up carefully~

I managed to stay in tier 2, so that's another event Hanayo idolized. The last rush left me at around 4k, so I'm glad I checked the cutoff prediction on Reddit and spent a couple extra gems.

Seeing the update notice and successfully tiering already had me in high spirits, but then it got even better when I used the prize ticket and got a SR pure healer. I'm not even mad about it not being Umi because I'm finally running full UR/SR teams <3 kudos to the initial R Hanayo I've been using all this time, you've been wonderful ;o;7

Posted by: eevee64 May 13 2016, 10:44 AM

I'm so excited for Monday now! I don't play JP so I'm really looking forward to playing around with 3.0 myself, rather than just reading about it :P

Aaand it's Magician Maki time! I had 50 love gems for one pull, didn't get her but I got Eli so I am already happy with her if I don't manage to get Maki during the next week. I need to find somewhere that's offering discounts on iTunes Store cards, so I can buy more love gems for a bit cheaper I want at least another 2 or 3 shots at trying to get the UR Maki, and hopefully I'll get another Eli to idolise her

Posted by: Espurr May 16 2016, 11:34 PM

Well the update was nice ^^
At the moment I should be able to do 11 scouting tickets, 3 10+1s and 2 blue ticket scouts for Magician Kotori! Here's hoping I get her, or if not at least something I can idolize!

Posted by: eevee64 May 17 2016, 07:01 AM

Ahh I'm loving the update! It feels so much nicer actually having room in my members list now after practising with all my Rs I had sitting there :P

I did 2 two 10+1s, and used 3 green tickets and 1 blue ticket scouts. I didn't get my Magician Maki that I was hoping for, or another Magician Eli to idolise her (I didn't get anything from the current Magician set for that matter)...buuut I did score two URs!! I got UR Eli from the Jobs Part 2 set and UR Kotori from the September set They are both too adorable X3 I'm so happy to finally have URs of characters I actually like! I think I fangirled a bit too much when I got the UR Eli X3 I also got SR Cyber Eli (now I really want another one to idolise her too) and SR Snowy Mountain Rin.

I think I'll save up and do another two 10+1's later this week, which will also give me a fifth blue ticket, in a last ditch effort to get Magician Maki.

===

Edit: So something was telling me that maybe they've increased the chances of getting rarer cards for at least today. I mean getting two URs in one day was pretty amazing, but I also kept getting Rs from Live Shows and just regular scouting (one lot of 10x regular scouts I did had more Rs than Ns in it). So I caved and bought more Love Gems for another 10+1...AND GUESS WHAT?!

I am sooooo happy right now! I'm gonna go cry

Posted by: Jen May 17 2016, 03:08 PM

I ended up only getting five blue tickets from the rares I had saved, and pulled the https://sif.kirara.ca/card/267. Awesome, since that was the very first event where I knew what I was doing, so I already had a copy of the card and got to idolize her. I can't believe how pretty she is! Probably going to keep her centered during the Medfest! (◠‿◠✿)

After the update I zoomed up to 400 Love Gems... I definitely want to get that number up to 500 by the time Kotori comes out... Still have about 2 weeks, so I can probably do it. x3 IF I manage to get a copy of Kotori and am able to idolize Nozomi with love gems left to spare then I'm totally gonna scout in the China Dress - Constellation Pick up box. I love almost all the sets in there.

Ahhhh! Grats on the URs, ya'll!! I'm so jelly! ;-; haha!

Valentines Nozo is gorgeous! Thief Eli is amazing, I think that's my favorite Eli UR! I'm glad to see that Kotobirb blessed you, and that Maki wasn't too tsundere! hah!

Grats on full SR+ teams and tiering for rice, North Star! (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧

Posted by: North Star May 17 2016, 04:38 PM

Congrats everyone on the lucky scouts~


I've barely done honor scouts after this update (I used a couple tickets and also did a single roll to get that goal out of the way), but I did do a roll with blue tickets after getting a couple of them with stickers.

The bad thing? It wasn't Umi. Why do you do this to me game, even an event SR would be enough ;w;
The good thing? It was Halloween Hanayo. That'd be my sixth UR, and it's been a while since I last got one (Bride Honoka in November).

I'm close to leveling up so I'm playing very little, just some runs of Bokura no Live on easy to clear the daily goals. If I haven't leveled up by Tuesday, then I'll play some more so I get to the next event with all that sweet extra lp. I'm not planning to tier, but it should be fun to play nonstop for a while.
I'm also focusing on regular scouting, I already got some N and R cards I was missing, and I'm using the rest to level them (and the UR) up.


I'm not particularly interested in the shop rares, but I'm considering getting them for collection's sake. Plus, now that I can freely spend fp and with a medfes around the corner, I should have a somewhat steady income of stickers.


edit: a little update, I got to 50 gems so I did a 10+1. Rolled Magician Honoka and White Day Nico. Still no Umi ;w;

Posted by: eevee64 May 20 2016, 04:02 AM

So my UR luck is continuing this week...my sister bought me some iTunes store cards for my birthday so I could use them to get some Love Gems. Did one 10+1 and got White Day Nico aaand UR Cafe Maid Umi! I love the cafe maid set So overall this week I've gotten 4 URs and 7 SRs, that's from five 10+1s and two blue tickets...crazy ^^" Now it's time to stop scouting and save up Love Gems for a while I think ^^ Congrats to everyone on their SR/UR scouts too! ^v^

As much as I love Nico, I'm not really fond of her idolised card for this event, so I'm not planning to tier either. Good luck to anyone who is!

Posted by: Espurr May 20 2016, 04:49 AM

Eyy congrats on the URs~ Magician Maki is one of my favorite URs of hers

Gee 500 loveca Ive never been above 150 LOL Hopefully RNG will be kind and grant you Kotori! Also congrats on idolizing that Nico!

Ahh hopefully Umi comes home! Halloween Hanayo is a cute card and AHHH Wedding Honoka is one of my dream URs, one of the few Wedding cards I like too.

I need to do 2 more EX medleys to finally rank up and get all my extra ranks. Seeing the 65,508 xp Im getting Im hoping I go from Rank 147 to about 155 or more.

Posted by: North Star May 20 2016, 08:48 AM

just finished spending around 1500 lp (and getting the SR) someone please kill me

No luck so far with the tickets I won as medley rewards, but I'm one voucher short of five and the last medley I did dropped me Cocoa, the one Nico sibling I was missing.


I got 12 levels out of the exp recalculation and went from 164 to 176, so I'd say you'll get at least 15 levels, Espurr.
edit: oh, found https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/17742tcdgkqt19_42f5nsbkUhBtf0KyFkbk7rcz4kSeU/edit#gid=218011467 listing how many levels you'd gain depending on your level and for you it'd be 13. It's still more than you thought =P

Posted by: Espurr May 21 2016, 07:20 AM

Hahah North Star you were definitely in the right ballpark! I went from 147 to 160, then ended up ranking up twice while still having an LP overflow while doing the medleys. My LP overflow ended up at 1349 once I got the extra levels. I'm three rewards past Nico in the event already, I'm probably going to keep going just for the loveca and the hope Ill get some more scouting tickets for Kotori. I already have 12 alpacas hanging out in my member box, lets see how many I can get before the event ends LOL

Posted by: Jen May 21 2016, 11:12 PM

Espurr, that's literally the same thing that happened to me! Rank 147 all the way to 160 and then +2 levels from the event. :P I was wanting to take a screenshot and post it on the subreddit as an achievement post once I hit 150, but that zoomed right on by. lol I'll just wait for rank 200 I guess. x)

I finally used up my extra LP, but only at 19k points. Definitely wasted a lot by not using it all up that first night. Just wish events didn't start at 4 am central. ;_;

EEVEE, pls share that luck omg
As for the event card, I'm mostly wanting to tier since it's a score up.. I might just try to go for all score ups.. maybe. idk. I want to place high in event song rankings whenever we have token events for the scouting tickets. lol

Ahhh speaking of scouting tickets, I've already won two from this event. Crazy! I didn't get any at all the past two medfests if I remember correctly. It's so nice. ;_; Currently at 21 free solo yolos, 22 once I honor scout and get the reward.

What do you guys think of the news that Aqours and Muse will be sharing SIF? I was fully ready for an Aqours takeover, so I'm kind of disappointed. I was going to start focusing all my attention on Kanan and possibly Riko scoutings, but with Kotori and Nozomi still getting cards, it's like ahhhh who to save for!! I'm probably going to go full Aqours once they come into the game, but only time will tell.

I wish they'd make boxes for people whose favorites aren't in a box together. I feel like Kotori got screwed with the only differences between printemps and 2nd years being Hanayo and Umi. Would love to have her and Nozo together just to make scouting them so much easier/better! Same goes for Kanan and Riko, neither of them will share any special boxes together. Ugh!

I don't remember if we've talked about Aqours here. Do you guys have favorites yet, or are you holding out for the anime to choose?

Also, Aquarium. I love that song so much, omg. <3

Forgot to ask what you all thought about the new SSR rarity too. I don't know how I feel about that. I don't feel comfortable with another rarity. ;-; And then idolizing cards with seals/stickers too - which might be really nice actually. I wonder if we'll need the base card first before being able to idolize, since I would kind of like to trade in seals to get 2 white day Kotoris to idolize. Probably not.

https://www.reddit.com/r/SchoolIdolFestival/comments/4kbz05/aqours_jpsif_update_info/d3dsazm

Posted by: Espurr May 22 2016, 04:27 AM

Oh my gosh haha! Ahh lucky! I havent seen a scouting ticket from this event yet, I also might accidentally tier it.

I'm okay with Aqours sharing the game but I'm really worried the SSR cards will devalue SRs ;w; I have so many SRs that are near and dear to my heart on my EN account. Also I'm looking forward to Master difficulty the most, however if I'm honest I probably wont be on the Aqours side too much....I dont really care for them, but I'm looking forward to seeing their sets~
Chika and You are my top girls from Aqours though! I'll probably just scout at any given time at this point on JP come the Aqours update.

Speaking of scouting it was so hard to choose between scouting now or waiting for the Marine set next since its Umi/Nozomi. I love Nozomi but the Kotori from this set so beautiful idolized that I ended up choosing her. After this scout its on to saving for the Koto/Nozo Ball(Victorian) Set, I'll be scouting for Nozomi for that.

Posted by: eevee64 May 22 2016, 08:04 AM

-sprinkles UR luck on everyone- (/^v^)/*~*~

I levelled up last night and went from rank 106 to 124. With all the extra LP I was reconsidering trying to tier for Nico, but I thought heaps of other people would be doing the same thing, plus I just got Fire Emblem Fates so I want to spend more time on that than SIF atm

I haven't really looked that closely at the Aquors members yet, but based purely on looks, I like Kanan, Riko and Yoshiko the best. I know nothing about their actual characters, so I'll be watching the anime to make a better judgement on them :P

I'm happy that Aquors isn't taking over and that it will still be shared with μ's...if I had it my way it would just be μ's still ;-; Though I'm sure once I know more about Aquors I won't be so hesitant toward them. Having both groups in the game does seem like it will make it more interesting with the events and scouting ^^

Also not too keen on the SSR, for pretty much the same reason as Espurr just said. I am interested in the Master difficulty though...I really wonder how hard it will be...

Having said all that, I don't intend on getting a JP account, so I'm sure it will be at least a year until I see all these new things in EN ^^"

Posted by: Espurr May 30 2016, 06:41 AM

So today was the SCOUTING day!
13 Scouting Tickets, 3 10+1s and 3 Blue Ticket Pulls!
Great news, good news and bad news!

Bad News:
Unfortunately I didn't get Magician Kotori in any of my scouts :c

Good News:
Of my 13 Scouting Tickets the last two gave me Magician Rin and Magician Nico!
My three 10+1s netted me Job v2. Honoka, White Day Maki and another Magician Nico, which meant IDOLIZATION! Im happy that I was able to idolize someone from this set (even if it was Nico haha)
2 of my Blue Ticket pulls netted me Seven Lucky Gods Kotori and March (Swimsuit) Umi

GREAT NEWS:
1 of my Blue Ticket pulls netted me UR Initial Maki! (My 3rd Initial UR and 7th scouted UR overall!) She may not have been the UR I was hoping for but she definitely makes my Cool team (which is slowly becoming a Maki team)

JP is going to be getting their first official dose of Aqours in the actual game! Our next event there will be for an Aqours member! Also SSRs are most likely going to be rewards for tiering in events (much like Idolmaster: Cinderella Girls: Starlight Stage) where you get an event card for accumulating a certain number of points and then an SSR for tiering!

Posted by: North Star May 30 2016, 07:05 AM

Congrats on those scouts, Espurr!

Also, while checking the friends news feed before, I saw Jen got magician birb and another UR of her, huge congrats too!


Today I got enough gems for a 10+1, but I'll be saving them for a lily white or second years box, cough. But I did use a ticket last night and...

Posted by: Jen May 31 2016, 05:12 AM

Ahah.. yep. It was really emotional last night. ^^; I'm glad it's done and over with though, it's kind of a nice relief! Thanks! <3

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hnxkoODxzSI

Grats on the idolization, Espurr! She's a score up too, so super useful! (especially with the smile event song coming up ;P) Also, grats on the new UR! That's awesome!

Awww grats, North Star! That Umi is a true beauty.


I am so ready for this. I think people are speculating the first Aqours event to be either Chika or You. Either way, I feel like I have to at least get the base SR card of first Aqours girl. Ahhh. So exciting! <3 Can't wait to see how the SSR stuff will play out if it is involved in the event.

Posted by: eevee64 Jun 3 2016, 02:40 AM

Congrats to everyone on their new SRs and URs! I don't know what to focus scouting on next...I don't mind the upcoming Marine set, Maki is adorable but I would't mind the Nozomi UR either I really need more Nozomi cards! Aside from that, I'll be waiting a while until the ball dress set come out. Every one of them are too pretty X3

I'm going to try my luck at tiering in a token event again and go for this peachy Honks! I quite like her idolised card ^^ Good luck to everyone for the event!

Posted by: Jen Jun 3 2016, 11:56 PM

The marine set URs are stunning. Nozomi biting into that watermelon is the most precious thing, I swear omg! The ballgown set is gorgeous too! I love big, floofy dresses. lol Plus BELLE!!! My fav disney princess.. and Kotori's card resembles the ballroom scene so much... My heart.

Good luck to you too, eevee!
I'm not sure if I'm going to try tiering... my boyfriend wants me to try for the next Hanayo UR. Idolized ninja rice is my favorite UR of hers, so I'm considering it.. but I also really want almost everything from the China Dress - Constellation pick up box. So many wants, not enough love gems! ;-;

With the release of the Aqours dubbed lines, my favorites have been switched around. I'm adoring Hanamaru and Mari more, especially Mari! Looking at the art/manga of the characters has made me realize just how adorable Chika is too. She has this tiny face with the cute hair braid and she's so precious! Man, the anime needs to come faster!

Been anxiously awaiting the reveal of the next event all day... I'm definitely hoping that it will be Chika.

Thoughts on the subunit songs? Strawberry Trapper hype! I really like the sound of Torikoriko PLEASE!! too.

EDIT: OMG 2 FOR 1 EVEN BETTER THAN EXPECTED OMG ;_____;
they seem kind of promotional though, maybe once the anime airs we'll get better looking aqours cards. idk. still can't wait and still excited!

EDIT 2: OH GOD THE FULL ART IS OUT
I NEED CHIKA SHE IS SO PRECIOUS OMG
thankfully she is point based and not tier based ahhhh <33

Posted by: eevee64 Jun 9 2016, 11:36 PM

I've been reading that that EN is http://schoolido.lu/english_future/ to start doing two SRs per event after this current one. Seems like they want EN to catch up to JP quicker :P That means that the first Aquors event will be happening by the end of the year! There are a couple of events where I wouldn't mind the idolised SR of both girls, so that should be fun haha. Though I'd think that if you got enough event points to get that idolised SR, then you should be able to tier easily enough to get the other SR...though it would probably depend on how many people want which SR :P Knowing my luck, the ones I really want are going be be tier based and not point based. //if any of this actually happens xD

Posted by: North Star Jun 10 2016, 06:33 AM

Actually, it seems that we'll get a copy of each card with points. In most events we get the SR at 25k, now it'd be one at 22.5k and the other at 27.5k (so I'd say it'd be 9.9k and 12.1k for token events). Then the additional copies would come with tiering, as usual.

The japanese double event does separate the girls by tier/score, but https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rqERggNNQZE (around ~7:00) shows that some people found the relevant info by mining assets or something. Well, technically it doesn't "show" it because there's no ingame pics, but =P

Posted by: eevee64 Jun 10 2016, 07:56 AM

Aah that's good to know! Thanks for the link ^^ I'd much prefer the double SR events done that way than the way JP is doing at the moment :P

Not sure I like the scouting thing they mentioned in the video though...I like having each new set in two halves like it is now so you have more of a chance to get the particular UR or SR you want :\

Posted by: Espurr Jun 12 2016, 02:46 AM

Woo I'm back lol

Yeah the Score Matches are most likely going to (possibly) be the only event doubled, since the data miners said that there's data in there for separate Tokens for the those Token events. Apparently the data all the way up to Circus Maki has been added or something like that

I don't really like idea of the double card events (I don't particularly like the current JP event) nor do I like the fact that they're combining the sets, I was going to do one scout for Marine Nozomi since after the next event I would've had enough loveca to do a scout but now that's not going to happen.
I was talking about it with some friends and others on Twitter and we think the players that don't know about this are going to be really upset about it. Honestly it kinda feels like throwing Free to Play players under the bus to do events and scouting like this.

Posted by: North Star Jun 13 2016, 05:54 AM

I decided to use a couple tickets in hopes of getting the new Umi, and got the new Eli instead.
Then I caved in and used all my gems in a 10+1 roll, got Jobs v2 Nozomi.
Then I noticed I had four vouchers so I bought a fifth one and rolled. Got Snowy Mountain Nozomi.
I should have waited for the lily white box in the next event ;w;


At least we have Trouble Busters back, I had a lot of fun playing it in the Military Maki event.

Good luck to those of you who will be scouting

Posted by: eevee64 Jun 13 2016, 10:36 AM

omg omg omg xD

So my ridiculous UR luck continues (it's scaring me). I decided to do two 10+1s to try and get some of the Marine set, I didn't really care who because I really like all of the girls' cards. Got Marine Hanayo on the first go (she looks so happy it's adorable), and then on the second go...UR WHITE DAY UMI xD After all this I had 5 blue tickets so I scouted with them, and that's when UR Bride Honks happened! She was my very first UR I got back in September last year when I started playing, so it is really nice to be able to idolise her out of my 7 URs I own I've gotten 5 of them in the last month plus idolising Bride Honks

Anyway. -composes self-

I'm also glad I was finally able to tier in a token event! They seem like so much more effort to tier in than the other event types ^^" And yay Trouble Busters is back <3 Definitely one of my favourite songs.

Disappointed to see that they have changed the scouting to whole sets at once...going to be so much harder to get what you want if they keep this. And I would rather they keep it one SR per event, but it doesn't bother me too much if they change it to two.

Posted by: Jen Jun 13 2016, 01:46 PM

With the change in scouting, I think I'm going to save up for the Kotori and Nozomi solo boxes starting now. I already have 50, so just 250 more to go! I'm very much expecting them to be on EN, but if they aren't, and if another set doesn't come out that I really like, then I'll probably scout when the dancer set comes out. bye circus dreams ;-; My scouting plans change constantly though, so who knows what I end up doing. lol

I'm hanging in T2 on JP, all my effort has been there this event. Just one more x4 EX event song and I'll have a my second Chika. <3 I really like the printemps outfits in the idol set, so I'm hoping that honks is going to look beyond gorgeous. Wasn't a fan of the Nozomi idolized, but unidolized she is a lot of fun!

I was expecting there to be two song unlocks, kind of disappointed that it was only one. D;

I love the waifu set, grats on idolizing honks!

Posted by: Espurr Jun 13 2016, 11:12 PM

Ahh congrats on idolizing Honk!!!
I think I'm just going to scout in the Lily White box during the event, I'd scout in the third years box but I wont have enough loveca when it comes out.
Also I'm pretty sure the rates with the combined scouting have now been confirmed to be only a 20/20 chance you'll get either of the new URs within the regular 1% of getting a UR and now its a 60% chance you'll get one of the new set's SRs within the regular 9% of getting an SR and since this seems to be the agreement so far I've decided I'm only going to be scouting during events now.

Posted by: Jen Jun 16 2016, 04:09 PM

I made it to T2 in Japan and got my Chika and Riko idolized. It wasn't as bad as I thought it was, like it didn't feel competitive at all... but I also kept up with it, so who knows! Shocking Party made it so easy, since the song is so short and catchy! Can't wait for voices and more Aqours now!

Did a 10+1 when the Victorian pick up box was released as well. Got 2 SRs! Ninja Umi and a second copy of Victorian Nico! <3

Posted by: eevee64 Jun 18 2016, 08:27 AM

This is my first time trying to tier in a Score Match event, and I didn't expect to have to spend so many Love Gems so early just to keep up! Though I guess there would be more people trying to tier given the two SRs available. I want idolised Eli so I'm going to keep at it! The idolised Rin is pretty average looking imo.

The sets available in the current popular selection scouting are some of my favourites so I ended up doing five 10+1s and am super happy with what I got:
- Halloween Rin
- three Constellation Kotoris, so I could idolise and level up her ability straight away haha (I reeaaally love this card, it's so gorgeous X3)
- UR China Dress Kotori (sorry Jen haha) Kotori seriously has some of the cutest cards...I'm really starting to like her even more lately
- with the resulting blue tickets, Bride Maki <3 (this is the first non event SR I've gotten of her...waifu playing hard to get :P )
Now I'm really going to try not to scout until the Ball Dress set comes out and do another huge scout then ^^

I've also started watching the second season of the anime. After playing SIF and seeing all of the beautifully drawn cards, the animation looks so bad haha. I'm still enjoying it though and loving Shocking Party atm

Posted by: Jen Jun 19 2016, 04:18 AM

I can't believe how insane this event is. I know the previous few have been the same way, but I still can't believe it! Both cards are scorers and strong enough to kick some cards off my teams once they're idolized, so I thought I'd go for it. I've got a lot of people on my friend's list who look like they're planning to tier as well. I love watching that list as we all fight for the girls. :P

I really love the two cards per event that they've started! It makes me want to compete. The newest event was just revealed on JP too! I love when there are matching sets. I have to admit that Hanayo is beyond precious.

Do you guys remember the news when it was said that 4 sets would be released per month? Two Aqours and two µ's? With the doubling that EN started, I wonder if that's what they really did mean. I just assumed they meant 2 sets with the halves being separated like they've been doing, but after UmiNico comes out, I wonder if we'll see a change there.

Eevee. ;___; You must do some kind of ritual before you scout? Or maybe you sold your soul to the RNG idol goddesses... Whatever it is, I want in on it!

It's SO tempting to scout in that box, but I know I need to hold out for solo boxes... I love almost every set and UR in that pick up box though. Halloween Nozo <3

Posted by: Espurr Jun 23 2016, 10:30 AM

Ended up scouting in the 3rd year box, got Fairy Tale Nozo and Magician Eli, it seems the Magician SRs like me haha
The new interface and seal idolizations were revealed, as well as it being revealed that idolized cards only giving one seal now can't say I'm too pleased with any of this but eh what can you do. I won't be idolizing with seals since it feels like it'll take the special-ness of idolizing with another card

This event is madness, my friend was going to tier but she used the event calculator to check how many loveca she'd have to use and it said something like 25-35 just for tier 2, shoutout to the people tiering though.

Posted by: eevee64 Jun 23 2016, 10:59 AM

omg you can say that again I have plenty of Love Gems to use, so I'm not too worried about them, but honestly, my hands and fingers are so sore from playing so much #doitforeli If I didn't love Eli so much I would have given up days ago. I'm definitely sitting the next event out to recover haha ^^" I've just managed to get myself up to rank 2200, but I bet I'll be back over 5000 again when I wake up in the morning...it's that close!

I hope now that it is two SRs per event, they all aren't going to be this crazy...looking at the events for the rest of the year, I would have actually liked to tier in all of them (there are too many awesome idolised cards), but I doubt that's going to happen any more.

Posted by: Jen Jun 30 2016, 02:48 AM

Wow! I'm loving Nico's look so much, as well as the rest of the SRs in the set. I can't wait to see sweet devil Kotori (and the rest of them of course )! I really hope Umi looks just as confident as Nico - although I think Nico is pulling on her tail in the unidolized, so I hope she doesn't have that surprised/startled look on her face. D; I love her idolized Maid Cafe, so I can definitely see her idolized devil being similar to that.

Just a few more days until 4.0 and Sunshine!! Super excited! I listened to the drama CD featuring Guilty Kiss and omg Mari and Yoshiko Yohane are amazing.

I really like that, if I were to ever pull a second Magician Kotori, that I could idolize her and still keep her unidolized appearance on my home screen. Also!!! That the bonded cards shown on a user's profile won't be clogged up by promo URs. Such a great change. Ahhh. <3

How did everyone do in the RinEli / EliRin death match? I ended up throwing in the towel. I used maybe ~8 gems and then decided to heck with that, I'm saving them for scouting. lol ;_; If tiers aren't expanded then I don't know if I'll bother tiering anymore, but then again, I never stick to things that I say I will or won't do, so who knows. Hah!

Posted by: eevee64 Jun 30 2016, 09:14 AM

Ugghh the Eli/Rin death match. I am so glad it's over. I really wanted idolised Eli so I fought for tier 2 until the end (I don't even want to know how many love gems I used) but alas, it wasn't to be When I got home from work, I spent 2 hours straight playing to just get back into tier 2. After that there were still 2 more hours left in the event, but I was so exhausted by that point, I literally had no stamina left to play, so I ended up slipping out of the tier. Sigh. While I feel pretty disappointed I didn't tier after spending so much time and love gems, I was honestly quite over it as well. Anyway.

Just looked at the announcement for the next event and it looks like it's going back to a single SR this time!! (so much happy) And it's a token event, not the expected Med Fest (I'm kinda sad about that fact because I love the Med Fests the most). I was thinking of tiering, because I have a serious lack of Nozomi cards, but I don't think I've recovered from the previous event yet. But we'll see. I'm also likely to change my mind hehe :P

I'm also looking forward to Sunshine coming out on Saturday!! I really want to know more about the Aquors girls so I can actually pick a favourite

I went to an anime convention last weekend and got these little cuties! <3

While I was there, I also saw this guy (yes a guy) cosplaying as idolised Cafe Maid Rin xD I sadly didn't get a photo of him but it was surprisingly a really good cosplay!

Posted by: North Star Jun 30 2016, 01:36 PM

I was expecting a token event as the next one since I read somewhere that token events would still be for a single SR. So, the logical thing would be to run the token events between the other two types, otherwise we'd have a bunch of token events in a row after the others catch up to JP.


I didn't bother to try tiering in the last event and I don't think I will in the next one, either. I'll probably save for the next Hanayo event, but I think the Umi/Kotori medfes will come first... actually I just checked the schedule and they will be back to back, lol. I was considering to try tiering in the medfes so I could experience Umihell for once, but now I'm not so sure.

On the other hand, Hanayo events are easy... I might go for both events. I only have around 30 gems, though.


Oh, and I read KR will be shutting down and its players will be transfered to EN; I hope the Klab guys expand the tiers once that happens.

Posted by: Jen Jul 5 2016, 12:16 PM

My savings for Aqours pulled off! UR Chika get! Too bad I didn't realize that it was only 2nd year URs in the box though, or I would have waited for the 3rd years. lol. I had awesome pulls though, 3 10 + 1's got me 5 SRs and the UR, and 2 of those SRs were You, so I got to idolize her, and the best part is is that they're both scorers! Score!! Haha.

I like what I've messed around with so far, but there is an event to tier in, so I can't mess around with all the fancy EX songs just yet... unless I end up needing those love gems. Hopefully not, but we'll see! One of my favorite improvements so far is how URs look in their bubbles. I used to think they were the least impressive, because it didn't have a fancy background it was just striped, but now the background shows up. Definitely makes having them feel more special now, I think!

Have you all watched the first episode of Sunshine yet? Riko and You surprised me the most of the girls.

Posted by: North Star Jul 5 2016, 03:48 PM

Ah yes, the first episode of Sunshine was cool. Yohane was instant like and the second years were also interesting.

I laughed at that dramatic reveal they tried to pull with Riko. It would have been more effective if I hadn't recognized her uniform when she was stripping to get into the water (I knew next to nothing before watching, so either I didn't know about her being a transfer student from Otonokizaka, or I read about it but forgot) =P Her refusal to join right after that imagine spot was another funny moment.

Aaaand something I really liked is that the cgi bits during dances were barely noticeable, unlike in the previous series and the movie. The couple songs in the episode were nice.



It seems the change in scouting rates in JP have been quite effective, I've seen many screenshots of people getting rolls with several SR, one or two SSR and even an UR or two. Congrats on your pulls o/

Posted by: eevee64 Jul 6 2016, 01:38 AM

Definitely agree! The CGI bits really annoyed me in the first series, but I was happy that they've improved it now!

I liked the look of Riko and Kanan before I watched Sunshine, and I'd still probably say they'd be my favourites (not that you saw that much of Kanan in the first episode). You surprised me as well! I really like her now too But Chika annoyed me...she's pretty much a Honoka clone :\ I want to see more of everyone else before I say whether I like them or not. As a whole, most of the girls seem pretty cool ^^

Posted by: eevee64 Jul 19 2016, 04:34 AM

I've been on holidays for the last weekish, so I'm an episode behind on Sunshine and have barely started the current EN event ^^" I'm back now though so I have a lot of catching up to do! Still want to get the unidolised Kotori and Umi cards

I saw what was available in the popular selection scouting, and was a bunch of my favourite sets, like last time, so I decided to do two 10+1s. First one I got Cafe Maid Hanayo, second one I got four SRs! Cafe Maid Nozomi, China Dress Maki and Hanayo and Constellation Honoka! Super happy with Nozomi...that's the first non event SR I have of her <3 Also always happy with Maki SRs

Posted by: Jen Jul 20 2016, 02:13 AM

Ahhh you need to watch it! Have you watched it yet? lol
You and your pulls, girl! That's incredible. Congrats!

I think I'm just going to aim for the unidolized cards this event as well. Definitely Kotori's for sure, and then I'll use seals to upgrade her later. I love idolizing with seals now, I idolized the majority of my scorer's on JP.. definitely going to save to idolize one of my URs. I'm planning on scouting for the initial third year URs, so I can get more cards then. Unless I don't like them, then I'll just wait to see what best girl UR set grabs my attention.

Same thing goes for the JP event this round. I made tier 2 in the Dia/Ruby score match... definitely a lot more competitive than the Chika/Riko Token event. Ugh, it was tiresome! But can we talk about the new Eli, because holy crap the unidolized and kitsune are amazing. I'm actually kind of upset that she's the perfect lock/score reward. haha. Kotori is cute unidolized. I think I'll just try to tier 3.

Posted by: North Star Jul 20 2016, 08:56 AM

oh god ep3 was all the feels

I decided to go for tier in this event after all, and I think I might be overdoing it, I'm constantly around the t1 cut lol. I started the event with about 65 gems and I'm still over 60 despite how many I've used (I lost count, I'm probably over 20 already) thanks to rewards, daily gems and login bonuses. I only have around 13k points left to clear all rewards, which is something I think I've never done.



About scouting, I think I'll save gems until we get 4.0 (apparently autumn. I'm guessing December) since it has better scouting rates and I should be able to whine less about my bad luck if I scout then But I'll probably throw tickets if an interesting set gets released (I should check the schedule). Shame they can't be used on limited gachas, I would've liked to try my luck with the one that had the China Dresses set but I was so paranoid about the event that I didn't want to use 50 gems and knowing my luck a single roll wouldn't be good. I already have the best one (Nozomi) and one of the URs, but having more qipao girls doesn't hurt, right?

Posted by: eevee64 Jul 22 2016, 08:19 AM

I watched episode 3~ Going to have to agree with you two about Mari! I'd say she's my new favourite Aquors girl now Mari, You, Kanan would be my top three ^^

I've decided to give up on the Kotori/Umi event...still haven't had as much time as I wanted to play it and I don't think I'll be able to smash it out to get to 27.5k. Oh well. I decided to do two more 10+1s instead, this time in the Bibi scouting. First one I got Cafe Maid Nico, so I was able to idolise her!! <3 I love that card so much >3< So happy with that. Then I got Valentines Maki in the second lot, and Magician Nozomi from a blue ticket pull after that Glad I'm finally starting to get some Maki and Nozomi cards! For two of my favourite girls, they are poorly represented in my deck haha.

Posted by: North Star Aug 2 2016, 05:55 AM

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Co2ExpUWAAAHhb4.jpg:large

I also did a coupon scouting and got https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Co2E7goWYAEchGB.jpg:large, so I now have non-promo UR of all colors.

But seriously, all those Umis. That was a really good way to start the day <3



Good luck to those of you who are aiming for tiering in this event!


e: I ended up throwing another 50 gems at the LW gacha and I wasn't as lucky this time, ten R (one of them new, science club Umi) and China Dress Rin (yay for more qipao girls). Where did my self-control go?

Posted by: eevee64 Aug 8 2016, 06:34 AM

I managed to tier in the event! Yay idolised Maki and I really like the idolised Umi too. I had more of an idea what to expect after the Eli/Rin Score Match I tried to tier in, so I paced myself better, ended up comfortably tiering and I don't feel exhausted this time :P

And scouting time! I really love the new ball dress set, so I ended up doing 5 (whoops) 10+1s! The disappointing thing was that I only got one card from the actual ball dress set, but still got some other cool stuff so I'm still satisfied ^^ Here's the SRs I got:
- ball dress Honks
- pool Honks
- ninja Honks (Honoka seems to love me this time haha)
- ninja Maki (x2!!) so I could idolise her straight away X3
- magician Nico
- animal part 2 Nozomi
And from two blue ticket pulls:
- valentine Eli
- bride Honks (I was happy that I managed to pull a UR, but I already have her idolised ^^" so I was a little disappointed)

Time to start saving love gems again! Next set I'm looking forward to is the circus one! UR Maki dreams <3 I hope it will be the Hanayo token next, so I don't have to worry about tiering in two events in a row :P

Posted by: Jen Aug 8 2016, 12:35 PM

Aww SLG Nico! Nice! Grats on the 3 Umis and Rin as well! (:

Holy crap, those Honks! At least you can skill up and get that seal! Once 4.0 comes you can idolize another UR with it. (I freakin love 4.0. <3) Grats on tiering! I had thoughts on going T2 at the start since that Umi card is one of my absolute favorites. ^^

I only had 160 LG so I told myself that I'd only scout once if I didn't get anything from my 6 Green Tickets. All rares. ): So I did a pull and SHE CAME HOME??? WIth just one??? what ;____; Koto and Nozo are best girls, but I'm so glad it was the Kotori, I prefer her UR in this set, like dang. That also gave me tri-color of best girl, so I see her face for all of my teams. <3

And um... if what's said about the Riko/Chika event being true with no tier increase, that'll be incredibly disappointing. I guess I don't need my Aqours girls, I can possibly try scouting for them... maybe... idk now. I've been waiting and saving for the Koto solo box. ahhh

On the JP front though, with the upcoming µ's swimsuit set, I might have to end up scouting for Kotori if they are doing triple URs and it ends up being the 2nd years. I'm beyond hoping that the braid trend will continue with Kotori and Umi... we'll see! but the initial third years

Posted by: North Star Aug 8 2016, 01:00 PM

I just read about the Chika/Riko event being next. I'm glad it's not dango Hanayo because I won't have to tier there while farming the incoming F/GO event, but on the other hand ahahahaha Klab EN what are you doing.

I think I'll play enough to get one Chika, maybe two if the requirements aren't too high, and that's all. If they did it like they've been doing the double events here I'd bother putting in the extra effort to get both girls, but meh.

Posted by: Jen Aug 8 2016, 01:47 PM

Right??? The community had a much better schedule all figured and mapped out assuming that KLAB would follow that route, but then they went with the Score Match instead and now... what even.. I kind of at least wish they'd update it so we didn't have to do the 5 songs + perfect combo to get the daily love gem.



PAGE STRETCH WARNING ^

I really like that Nico idolized too, but it was for the greater good, since Honks is a scorer and Nico was a PLock. I also absolutely love this Honks idolized! *___* Still need to idolize my dancer and cop Kotoris on this account, but that will be for later..

Posted by: roseisconfused Aug 21 2016, 08:07 PM

I would have to say my best girl is either Maki or Nozomi I really like them both, at first I only really liked Maki but then I got Arabian Nozomi and fell in love with her! My least favorite girl would have to be Nico, sorry Nico lovers!! I played SIF but I am currently taking a break from it. The set that I really want is already out which is the Arabian set, it look so cute! I guess that is just a little bit to start out! (This is lowkey my first ever post on a forum.)

Posted by: eevee64 Aug 22 2016, 09:20 AM

@Rose, yay another Maki fan! -high five- She's my best girl too, with Nozomi, Nico and Eli equal second

I've caught back up on watching Sunshine, and omg I'm in love with Saint Snow!! Self Control is amazing sorry Aqours I'm happy that Kanan is slowly coming into the picture...it's nice actually seeing my favourite Aqours girl make an appearance that lasted longer than one line haha :P

I got a bit busy and kinda forgot about the Chika/Riko event going on, so I didn't end up getting any of the SRs ^^" My plan was to get at least one Riko, maybe even tier for her, but that didn't happen hehe.

Super excited about the new circus set! I really wanted the UR Maki to go with my UR Magician Maki. I ended up doing six 10+1s for her (plus two blue ticket pulls)...on my 3rd 10+1 I got a UR, so as soon as I saw that UR envelope I started celebrating...but it turned out to be the UR Circus Umi instead Not that I have anything against Umi (and that card idolised is adorable), but she's not my Maki. I wish they still did the new honour scouting sets in two halves like they used to But overall, I was really happy with the SRs I pulled (I actually got a fair few) and I managed to idolise a couple too ^^

Posted by: Jen Aug 22 2016, 12:36 PM

Welcome to the forum! Nice another Nozomi fan!
I love the Arabian set too, especially the URs! I'll probably drop some money to have a chance at them, or at least hope for a few cards from the set.



Right?? As soon as their song started I was like... well I'd definitely vote for them if I were in that crowd. lol I feel like the only way Aqours could compete with them would be for them to send Guilty Kiss to the stage instead. :P


I got the Chika on the last day. >_> I wanted to get more from this event since my plan is to sacrifice all the event cards to idolize these URs I have in the future, but... effort. lol


This is my favorite set!! I'm so jealous you got the Umi, she's the one I would prefer! lol Though I'd really love ALL of them.

I did 5 10+1's myself recently... and 3 blue ticket pulls cause I was awful and sold all my seals to do them. ;_; Anyway, the first two were in the 1st years box because it was my boyfriends birthday and he loves Hanayo, so I was hoping he'd pull me a UR. lol I got mermaid Rin (which I sold cause of Skill up), mermaid Hanayo, and that one abomination Hanayo where she's holding the flower and her eyes look dead inside. Even Nick was upset with the art on it. rofl

The two blue ticket pulls I did got me UR white day Hanayo and SR constellation Hanayo. Legit Nick's birthday is Hanayo day. lol

Then the other three I did were done this morning and I got 2 circus Honks, MAGICIAN NOZOMI, ball Rin, and ball Nico. I finally got to idolize that beautiful Nozomi guys. ;_____; And 1 idolized Circus card down, 8 more to go. rofl I love my Honks though! The blue ticket scout got me cooking Kotori who I also got to idolize! Great scouts today!

I'm now completely out of love gems though, so IF the solo boxes happen it looks like I'll be buying my pulls.

Posted by: North Star Aug 22 2016, 01:10 PM

yay new blood in the thread

I spent almost all event in t3 by playing with minimal effort (spending lp/tokens but no gems), then I dropped out with the last rush. Not that I cared lol


And omg yes Saint Snow. Once again the rival group has the kind of sound I like; first A-Rise with their Private Wars that has bits sounding suspiciously similar to a certain KISS song and now these two.


Rolling for the circus set was a bit tempting, but I only used my two reward tickets (got two R -w-). My next 10+1 will probably be in an event box since the pool is smaller, girls-wise.

Posted by: eevee64 Aug 28 2016, 08:42 AM

I did a few more 10+1s in a last ditch effort to get circus Maki. Unfortunately didn't get her but this happened instead:

Eeeee I'm so happy X3 That makes my second idolised UR now ^^

I'm gonna try and tier in the upcoming event. Loving the Steampunk Eli, and don't mind Vampire Honks either.

You really need to share that luck


And now they're doing the double events JP style, rip in pieces. Though it's a medfes, so I hope I can make it to at least t3.



Aaaand in Sunshine we now know who was the one who came up with the name Aqours. Sadly, that ruined my random headcanon about the third years' group being called Three Mermaids (I thought it would be funny if someone had actually used that name)

Thought I'd try at a shot for Kotori on her birthday. https://www.reddit.com/r/SchoolIdolFestival/comments/52bjjw/luck_kotori_birthday_scouting_4_10_1s_video_in/

I'm super jealous of that Umi! If I could, I would totally have the whole circus set idolized. (: I'm glad to have gotten to idolize one though - and then get to show it off during her medfest to boot!

Congrats on that idol birb o/

I got a cute UR Umi of my own (finally ;w;) during the previous event. She was the only non-R in the pull, but I also got two copies of the Kotori from the latest EN R set, so it wasn't that bad. Then I did a voucher pull, got a SR Honk. Looking at the art I felt the card was quite old, and when I later remembered to check the album it turned out to be from the initial set lol


Welp I started playing right after maintenance, and when I was almost finishing my second lp bar of the day maintenance hit again. It better be for something useful and not just for fixing the gift loveca for birb's bday having Ruby's pic

Congrats on your idolised Kotori, Jen! That card of hers is super pretty And congrats on you getting a UR Umi, North Star ^^

Today I realised that Magician Maki was in the seal shop! So I sacrificed a Rin and Hanayo UR to get enough gold seals to get her. So now I have my idolised UR Magician Maki X3 <3 Soooo happy
I also did a blue ticket pull and managed to get UR Cyber Nico I wanted her when the Cyber set first came out, so I'm glad to finally have her! The unidolised version isn't much, so hopefully I'll be able to idolise her too one day :P

I think I'm 2, maybe 3, episodes behind on Sunshine...I should really get on to that haha.

Wow its been a while! Congrats everyone on their scouts!

As for Sunshine well...I dropped it, I don't like Aqours as much as I thought I would :c So I've been staying with u's.
For JP:
I did 2 pulls for Pool v2 Honk and ended up with the Eli from the set, "Dancer" Nozomi and the Kotori and Umi SSRs, I got Magician Honk from the Blue Ticket pull I did so I got to idolize her, making her my 3rd idolized Honk on here! I did another pull recently and only got Fairy Eli, hard to believe you can still get 1 SR pulls on there OTL and got Baseball Honk from the blue ticket pull! I refuse to idolize anything with seals so it'll be a while before I see anything idolized again.

On EN:
Solo Yolos have been kind to me I've gotten Cyber Maki, Cyber Hanayo, and Animal v2 Kotori from them. A blue ticket pull granted me Cheerleader Hanayo, who unfortunately doesnt make my team. I'm saving now for the "Dancer" set.
I tier 2'd for Vamp Honk, and I spent almost 50 loveca on that tiering, safe to say I think tiering will always be bloodbaths now with the inclusion of the Korean server. I'm happy to see Pana's event finally come to EN, though I'm worried that after this they're going to combine token events like what was found on the Taiwan server. If they do that for the next event, Nico/Rin, it will have Nico as points and Rin as tier and they'll have both event songs.

Ever since SIF updated to its newest version on the Japanese server, I haven't been playing one the English server. I actually think I gave away my account to my friend, since they wanted the Eli and Kotori UR I had. I kinda miss it since I had some idolized UR's but I'm so much happier with the cards I have on my Japanese account.

Today I solo scouted an SSR You, which is amazing since she's my second best girl ! I'm trying my best to get the Kanan UR, she looks so pretty and she's my best girl, it's super upsetting that I haven't gotten her yet. :') I did get the SSR Riko for this set though, she's really pretty too ! Hopefully getting her is a sign that I'm close to Kanan lol

Posted by: North Star Sep 29 2016, 06:32 AM

I can't believe we got 4.0 so soon, bless the rice. I did a 10+1 to get some Aqours girls and it went ok, I guess

I've barely touched the new features; I equipped the freebie skills and that's all. I want to focus on clearing unplayed Muse experts before moving on to Aqours' songs and goals. Though I cleared their prologue this morning, to get that out of the way.

rip Zuramaru's zura, it seems

I'm unintentionally tiering this event in EN, I did the SR rush for Ruby randomly, which took me 10 loveca and 1 rank up. I just got my second copy of her so I'm gonna try to stay in T2, while not spending TOO many loveca. We're supposed to be getting the solo scouting boxes and an event card only scouting box too soon. I'm saving for the Dancer set and probably one pull in Nozomi's box.

Posted by: Wheat Oct 4 2016, 03:01 PM

Sadly I don't play the game. I only watched the show. However! I think Maki is my favorite of the girls. Next in line after Maki is Nico! ouo

Posted by: Jen Oct 5 2016, 12:02 AM

I'm so far behind right now, I really want to idolize Ruby with a second card. ;_; Since the anime, her and Maru have shot up to my top three along with Mari. To make things worse, Ruby had to be the tier reward on JP. Ahhh she's sooo cute. ;_; I'm thinking I'm going to wait for a first years box though and hope for the best for them. yoshiko is my least liked girl though ¬¬

Beyond ecstatic that we got 4.0 so quickly! Finally no more daily tasks, and all the love gems galore!

Grats on all of your scouts, y'all! I currently have enough gems to do 1 pull in a solo box... definitely planning on at least buying more if need be... I'm kind of hoping they don't come out until after the devil set though for even more best girl cards.

Espurr, I don't think I have you added as a friend yet. Here's my info if you're interested!
EN ID: 231402564
JP ID: 485182148

@Thread: Feel free to add me if we're not friends yet! Currently have coptori as my center UR and my JP center is the newest SSR Ruby, but I'll switch to either Dancer Kotori or whatever attribute GNGK ends up being. Edit: Fairy Tale Kotori it is.

Wheat, you should try it if you haven't! So many great songs and gorgeous cards. Though... I completely understand if Overwatch is eating a lot of your time.

Posted by: Espurr Oct 12 2016, 06:54 PM

Added you on both EN and JP Jen! Lily White is my name on both accounts with Valentine's Nozomi on EN and Taisho Honk on JP!
We're back to 1 UR per scouting now! Im at almost 200 saved for Dancer Kotori/Nozomi, though if we get the solo boxes before Ill be down to 150 LOL I also have a blue ticket draw and 8 scouting tickets waiting with them~
I kinda accidentally tiered for Dia this past event without meaning to, I also cleared all the event rewards for the first time! Kinda shocking considering Ive been playing since the first event haha

In terms of scouting
On JP when the Birthstone set came out I solo'd 3 times and ended up getting a second copy of Devil Honk which Im really happy about since she's one of the cards I actually like from that set, that account is Honoka blessed I swear.
I ended up getting another 5 loveca and thought why not just solo again, this time I watched the envelope come out of the box (which is something I never do when scouting) because why not it was gonna be a rare, lolnope. A UR envelope came out and it was the new Eli! I always get surprised when I decide to watch it LOL My Cool team now has 5 URs on it ;;

On EN I ended up buying the package where you get a guaranteed SR+ ticket and a 10+1 draw. The guaranteed SR+ ticket got me Fruit Stand Eli! I got antsy and couldn't wait for Dancer set so I used my 10+1 draw and got Baseball Rin and Circus Nico!

Posted by: eevee64 Oct 15 2016, 09:14 AM

I'm really enjoying 4.0! Loving all the Love Gems I'm getting from the new goals and doing all the expert songs :P Got UR Chika and You from one 10+1 which was pretty sweet. Also got some Kanan, Riko and Mari SRs, but no SSRs yet. (Still don't really like the addition of the new SSR rarity though :\).

I'm going to try and tier in the current Nico event in EN. The Nico is super adorable and Zurui yo Magnetic Today is one of my favourite songs <3 I haven't been home since the event started so I haven't played it at all, so I'm gonna be a day behind, but hopefully I can make it up!

Also super happy that they've split the honour scouting sets back into the two halves with one UR in each again!

Posted by: Jen Nov 21 2016, 02:27 PM

...Next time I scout I'm going to change my in game name to yours, Eevee. You're so lucky! ;_;

edit: I JUST SAW YOU PULL TWO MORE URs, THE SALT IS REAL U____U

So did anyone take advantage of the Printemps box? I did one Saturday night (before it was known) thanks to drinking and got suuuuch a good pull. SSR Honoka, baseball Hanayo, Victorian Hanayo, and Halloween Honoka (2nd copy)... all of these cards are SCORERS! Ahhh! haha. Baseball pana helped with my current high score for this Token event, I'm so grateful. :')

Then the issue became known and I bought enough for 2 10+1 pulls. heh. <_> 1 SR Pana (you know that one with the flower and dead eyes? sold that), a second copy of maid pana (yay scorer, kicking another scorer off my team, whaaat), SSR Kotori, fairytale Honks... and I think that was it.

I realized I've done 19 10+1's now without a UR, so I'm glad something decently lucky happened.

3 circus set

Hoping Dia will be more lucky for me. Is anyone here familiar with Umineko no naku koro ni? Dia's idolized screams Bernkastel to me, I need her. <3

Posted by: North Star Nov 22 2016, 07:07 AM

She reminds me more of Virgilia, I guess it's the hat. But yeah, the dress' skirt, the cat... I can see some resemblance.
I'm saving for HW Yoshiko rather than her, though. Gotta get witch chuuni


Let's see, since my last post I got... Ruby's initial SR, Yoshiko's, a second copy of Kanan's and a third of Dia's (which became a sticker I'm saving until I decide which card to idolize). Also Maki's SSR, and with a 10+1 in the lily white box from last event I got Ball Umi and Mermaid Nozomi. Shame I didn't know about the Printemps box missing cards until after it was fixed, I wouldn't have minded doing a roll or two to take advantage of that.

Posted by: eevee64 Nov 22 2016, 07:40 AM

I actually feel kinda bad haha ^^" I've barely played SIF in the last month or so (been pretty busy, plus tendonitis in my arm making it a bit painful to play atm), and I just go on there this morning, do two 10+1s and a blue ticket pull and get two URs (I actually just wanted dancer Maki :P ) People are going to start thinking I'm hacking it somehow haha.

I really wanted to tier in the Easter Maki event, but that didn't quite happen. Lucky I had a spare SR seal so at least I could idolise her She's so adorable <3

Posted by: Jen Nov 22 2016, 03:45 PM

Uggghhh... the refund gems came in and I told myself that I'd just do ONE pull. Nico, Maki, and fairy Honoka appear... so of course I get desperate for Nozomi since she's second fav and the scorer SR, and of course wanting any UR at this point, and do two more pulls. No Nozomi, no UR. It's just so frustrating. Twenty-two in a row now. ._. Sold a ton of SRs that I won't ever use and did two blue tickets, job v2 Honks (scorer, so I'll keep for now), and an old festival maki card, so I sold that. >___<

I don't know man, this game sure can make you feel beyond helpless when it comes to getting the best cards. 22 though, I feel like I should have at least gotten 1 or 2 from raw pulls like that. ON THE BRIGHT SIDE THOUGH!!! This is the first set that I have 6/9 from and all idolized, so that's something!! If I really wanted to try to complete the set, then a dancer set featured lily white box would be the best bet, so there's always hope. ^^;

W/e though, I'm at work, I'll build up some more for the Halloween set and hope for Dia. Hopefully I'll have at least 4 pulls... I would really like some kittys though... looking at you, You, Maru, and especially Ruby. *_*


Oh yeah, I can see some Virgilia too. (: It's the small touch with the cat that really gets me. hah. Ball Umi is gorgeous and grats on Mermaid Nozomi!! Beautiful card!


Aww, sorry, Eevee. How did it come about? Do you know? I hope it's not interfering too much with your life. Sounds awful. Sorry.

Posted by: eevee64 Nov 24 2016, 08:49 PM

All good, Jen ^^ I've had it for years so I've gotten used to it and learned how to manage it. I've had heaps of end of semester assignments/exams lately so all the extra writing and computer work has made the pain flare up. Uni's done now though for the year so I can rest it for a week or two and it'll be right again ^^ Really missing not playing SIF...feel like I'm far behind haha. Have barely got any Aqours cards. As to how my tendonitis came about...an intense session of bowling on Wii Sports haha. (My friends find that hilarious). I thought I'd sprained my wrist while playing, but turned out to be the start of tendonitis ^^"

Really looking forward to the little devil set, whenever that comes out Gonna try for UR Nico! Hope you start getting some better luck, Jen

And just looked at Halloween Dia you guys are talking about and wow she's gorgeous X3

Posted by: North Star Dec 11 2016, 06:53 AM

I had saved some tickets to roll on my birthday, six of them. Rolled three on Muse and the other three on Aqours... got four R (at least one of them was one I still hadn't idolized) and https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CzWdErPXcAAFW73.jpg https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CzWdGEEXAAEOJhP.jpg


I also have a bit over 250 gems, I should be ready for the Halloween set given my luck with doing 10+1 for new sets. Bring it onnnn
