Been busy~ SIF & IDMCG starlight Stage, LL Sunshine Fanart proj.

It's been a while since I blogged.- Had been busy with school with the work load getting harder in higher level(well that's obvious). You can say I am taking a break to blog so as to relax myself. I feel that I may be overexerting myself(feeling the strain, esp on my shoulder...ugh...). I will resume work tmr instead.(After all, what I planned to finish by today is already done.)

Guess I will do some updates and stuff...

SIF 



In EN, it's Honoka scorematch. Gng go for tier 2 to get her idolised. TBH, I love the both versions and was planning to aim tier 1 until I realised how tiring that will be; barely holding myself in tier 2(-.-)

And then for Jap... I was planning to stop a while since it is hard to play 2 accounts at the same time and what with my busy school life. But! Jap has to do this to me!


KOTORI IN YUKATA!- Ugh, I'm a sucker for Yukata girls and to add it on, it is Kotori in Yukata! This beauty... I can't... not get her... Sigh...

And so, here I am juggling between 2 accounts again. It's a blessing that Honoka scorematch is only 8 days(which is the shortest event I ever seen...RIP to low level users...). It helps to end my load fast so that I can concentrate on Kotori Medley Festival. I'm hoping the next jp event won't be that attractive like this one(my body may not be able to handle it...)

Idolmaster Cinderella Girls Starlight Stage


Finally the game's out! And I've started playing a few days ago. So it's similar to SIF where you can choose one of the main characters; Rin, Uzuki and Mio(FYI: the 3 at the center from left to right you see on the above image) yet it's quite good to let you have all 3 of them but with the chosen one to be idolised first.

So after a little conflict I had over choosing Uzuki and Rin, I decided to go with my initial fave!



Yes, Rin's my fave when I first see idolmaster cinderella girls. Somehow, she gave off the 'Chihaya' feel. If you don't know who's Chihaya, she's my very first fave idolmaster char and the one that brought me to this idol series(from her lovely songs) before slowly liking Haruka, another lovable char; just like how Rin makes me watch idm cg anime and slowly liking Uzuki as well. And over time from watching the anime(which season 2 started in this season), find Mio also likable and other members as well. 

Even so, I still prefer Love Live as it's hard to gasp all IDM CG members; there're way too many... While Love Live will never change that 9-members team which is much better than IDM of having a number of members...

Seems like I am straying off. So this game is similar to SIF but with only 5 areas to hit the beats. You may think it's easier than SIF(if you're a veteran player), then think again! That thinking caught me off guard when I started playing the 'pro' mode which can be said to be hard mode in SIF and man, it's not easy... It took me a while to finally fc these 2 songs in pro:


    
I will be making a recording of the 2 songs above in pro mode soon(when I have the time...) I won't say it's too hard(like cytus) or it's harder than SIF cos I may be not used to this slight new playing style... Same rule applies; practise and slowly I will see the fruits of my hard work! 

Oh and the idolised versions of the trio:



  
This game may be similar to SIF as a rhythm game, it has this one feature that stood out from SIF(I almost wanted to drop SIF for this...) and that is... THE 3D effect! This feature really make the game more enjoyable and fun, seeing the idols dancing to the music! But there're stuff that SIF is still better; like the idolisation criteria- it's a pain to collect the materials needed... And leveling idols is not easy as well(but that may be cos I'm used to leveling fast in SIF...) 

I believe if you love rhythm games or just simply SIF, you would love this game equally! While it may be in japanese, there're instructions in pictorial to teach players. Plus there're ppl out there doing some translations for this game, so google's a best friend during these times.

And, if you do play, feel free to add me here:

Currently, I don't have much friends(cos I misunderstood and deleted my 'friends' away...Sigh....) One last thing, the transfer of account is different for this game. There's no code transfer but instead there's binding of account with Bandai Namco ID- To bind it, one should create a Bandai Namco ID in the region of JAPAN! If it's not jap, you can't bind! With the binding done, even if the app gt deleted or you need to install onto a new phone, you can retrieve your account from this binding!

I think this game has successfully make me love some IDM songs that I may not know. Two examples are S(mile)ING by Uzuki(her solo or character song) and memories by Love Larika(a duo team between Anya and Minami) Just like how Love Live SIF introduced me many great songs that I may not know from just watching the anime.

Small project: LL Sunshine Fanart

It's like an urge to draw them after seeing their first single outfit!

The outfit wasn't really my type yet it has the aqua feel and that is enough to make me feel hype up to get my hand on my pre-ordered cd soon!

And the progress so far of my mini project:


Had a hard time working on Kanan(can't get her facial expression and hair right...) Riko was slight hard but still alright. Guess Chika was only one I was able to draw without much problem. If I have to say the most difficult, it's not drawing the characters but their outfits... I'm bad with skirt type(since I don't wear them much myself...-.-)
Planning to draw all members but think it's going to be a 'squeezy' drawing as even though I'm using a A3 paper, it's hard to fit all 9 into one piece unless some serious overlapping is done... Shall see how is it...Wonder who should I draw next? These 3 are long decided to be drawn first as they remind me too much of the 2nd yr of U's... (Shall I go find the similar 3rd yr or 1st yr trio? I should really not seeing or comparing them with U's...-.-)

Due to my busy school life, this project will take some time but I'll finish it!- Just not sure how long it would take... I will work on it when I gt the time...

Guess that's about it then. Was great to blog after a while. It's always nice to pen down my thoughts; it help me recollect and think back. You can while blogging, I am brought back down to a small memory lane and reflect over my actions and time for the past few weeks.

I will be updating less here and more at twitter since it's easier to. With that, till next time. This is Yaiji signing off, ja ne~

Yaiji~
