I want a  SRW with PR PP Aikatsu Sakura Taisen etc.

YEEEES Ajimi is going back to Perusailles/Versailles. She will not be missed.

They didn’t even check on a map. Perusailles is southwest of PuriParis, not southeast.

See Hibiki is a nice girl who doesn’t reject friends at all, she even did all this for them. Hibiki is the nicest.

“Tensai team are probably doing even harder training now”

Shion is actually dissatisfied for not training but the others don’t care.  It’s not like they didn’t train, they’re just training in their own way. Hibiki did everything she could to make them feel relaxed and comfortable and do things at their own pace.

I wonder if Faruru can even taste food. I guess yes. Also it must be hard not getting her hair in the plate.

When they’re out of PP world Mireille calls Aroma by her surname “Kurosu san”

They should have made it so a staff person catches Sophie filming and tell her to stop and make you feel bad for Faruru not being able to watch the movie.

I’m so accustomed to the show being unsubstantial, (while this changed a bit since s2 started) that this episode feels really weird.

They should have shown Mireille’s parents. Also the episode focuses on her as the leader of the team. I was wondering whether they’d do that or not. It’s a good decision. Even if I think Mireille not being able to keep up is totally retarded, it’s true she must be the one in center of the team instead of Laala. Plus Laala should even be in the other team because her main character powers should be classified as genius. Yet another thing tainting this otherwise good idea arc. It’s a real shame.

Meganii asks Meganee to do the main MC for him because he has a bad feeling, that Mireille’s team will probably loose. But “SYSUTEMU DESU KARA” so he’s forced to do it.

Other teams retired since they don’t feel like they can win.

I could swear this is the 1st time they actually use the word Vs. For the first time since PP started I feel slightly excited about a fight, because it’s pretty much the first actual fight.

Eh 2D transformation? Does this mean they didn’t even bother making 3D for them? There’s no doubt they’ll loose now.

Cute Leona with disney alice cat.

You’ve been hit by a smooth murderer called Laala.

Hahaha oh wow they really didn’t make CG or even a song for them. Seems the PP anime management is very harsh when it comes to business. Can’t waste time and money on a loosing team. And that’s Amamiya kun there.
Didn’t think there would be a Dream Theather live in 2D, completely embracing it’s legacy of Prism Acts being in 2D.

One of the many good old American shows.

I knew they’d loose so I didn’t feel particularly bad for them.

Hibiki says they’ll just adapt to each other during the live, like competing while in the same team, which is a good idea and I hope they’ll develop that in the future episodes.

These dresses aren’t bad. Also notice how Hibiki says they’re doing an “act”, referencing PR again. I still stick to my interpretation I posted previous post though.

Mikan’s dress in her movie was nice.

Shion’s was the best. Judging that the whole point of this performance was things that don’t fit together without beforehand preparation but still fit anyway because tensai powers, I think they made all these CG scenes from scratch. I doubt they recycled it from stuff they didn’t have the occasion to use.

Tfw there will never be a movie called  “Toudou Shion Vs Kamiya Shion, ultimate dekadorobou daikessen” with Shion and Shion fighting and kicking each other.

Uta no force they say

Notice how they chose what a lot of normalfags consider the most romantic movie ever for Faruru’s part, implicitly confirming that she and Hibiki are still seeing each other every night having an affair.

Also Faruru is wearing a completely white version of Rinne and Juné’s seventh coord dress. Recognized it almost immediately as it’s my favorite Pretty Rhythm dress ever and one of the PR dresses I want to make IRL. I’m sure I already saw Mikan’s Shion’s and Sophie’s clothes before too but too busy to search.

I guess Sophie’s is a recolor of this; It’s slightly different though. Shion’s looks like something Karen wore during Mirage JET time. Mikan’s I can’t remember.

Hibiki’s laugh is so good.

Glowstick dresses were cute for once too.

HIBIKI IS CUTE

“Ring! The bell of revolution!!”

Sophie and Shion are excited because for the first time a PP’s performance was  genuinely intriguing and they did an exciting live with stakes at hand.

As already said Meganii was born to help idols, so as promised he can at least try giving Hibiki the reins and see how it goes, after seeing she got accepted by so many people.

So Meganii gives her his glasses to show Hibiki is the new person in charge. Besides the various powers and comm and holograms etc, there’s probably an actual key device needed to access the admin rights in the glasses. Not that they ever worldbuilded that. Just making my own headcanon. Speaking of headcanon, the True Akaii Meganee didn’t take control of Hibiki after she put in the red glasses. Hibiki must be strong enough to resist her control.

Hopefully after this heavy loss Mireille ditches this stupid style.

Jikai

They totally removed Ajimi for now thinking we’ll forget the “Ajimi knows Hibiki from somewhere” thing. As much as I hate her this is still very irritating. Can’t write a character? Just remove her! This is the worst.

Besides that it was a good ep. As I expected Hibiki won. Everything went just as as I imagined. For the first time I was genuinely hyped for a PP episode and it didn’t disappoint.

Now I just hope they will handle what comes next in a better way than what they did so far, and not make Hibiki’s reign a forced drama dictatorship “baaaw everyone isn’t friends anymore” and actually show you can be friends while striving to be better by facing each other, and then keep this idea in the show when Laala beats Hibiki in episode 88 etc, not gonna repeat what I wrote previous post.

I hope the fact that Hibiki bans catchphrasing will be exploited for jokes too and not be wasted potential.

If they handle things poorly in upcoming eps I’ll be pretty upset. Even if there’s a scene with Meganii now being a drunkard hobo, then making a comeback after being trained by his master the “True Akaii Meganee”, the one destroyer of worlds and controlling all the Meganee puppets.

Happy new year in Korean PriPara anime or something. I ilke it because this Mireille says less puri.

Real Mikan dress. Source.

Happpy new year from CG director. Left girl is new Komugi chan anime he’s working on.

Some poster.

Some anime ranking in some magazine, I think it’s a ranking about animation errors or something? They thought it’s a blunder that Akaii Meganee’s eyelashes stick to her glasses while it isn’t. Her glasses are the source of her power and connected to her via parallel universes.
