003 ★ let's start some fictional idol wars ( forward dated to 3/15 )

[promisedyou]

So, I've been playing this really cute rhythm game lately called Doki Beat: School Idol Festival, and I was wondering if any of you guys were playing it, too.

The two idol units in the game, Mousai and Luneours have really good songs and I'd really like to actually add people to the game, but I have the most important question for everyone here at Retrospec who happens to play it: who do you consider as your ~*Best Girl*~ and why? Feel free to talk about your worst girl, too. Oh, and feel free to discuss your thoughts with everyone who replies!

I'll even start.

From Mousai, my favorite is Kira-chan. She's so small and cute and adorable. She even has the cutest catch phrase: "Kirakira kirariiiin☆" I don't get why so many people hate her! It's so disheartening!! ( ≧Д≦)

And from Luneours, I like Pearl a lot. Sapphire's a really close second, though. Pearl's a really good older sister, and even though she can be rough around the edges sometimes, she's really devoted and can end up as cute, I think.

I don't have a worst girl, though, since I love them all! Now, it's your turn. Also, if you want to add me in the game, feel free to message me your ID, I don't bite.

( OOC: Open threadjacking mingle to talk about the Love Live! Recolle ripoff -- reference for names is here which I took too much time and effort to come up with. )

[ He is surprised his name somehow didn't get dragged into this BUT HE IS NOT COMPLAINING IN THE SLIGHTEST ]

What a silly question. Fumimaru is clearly best girl.


Yuki is good too but Fumi is superior.

[promisedyou]

Wow.

I can't believe I'm going to have to fight you on your shit taste. Maybe I'll burn all of the Fumimaru URs that I have. All. Of. Them.

[hairstroke]

Excuse me??? The one with the horrid taste is YOU. Kira is beyond annoying!

HOW DARE YOU!!! If you want to be like that, it's fine. Fumimaru is too good for you anyhow!

[ He's also fucking salty because he doesn't have the Christmas Fumimaru UR BUT THAT'S BESIDES THE POINT ]

[promisedyou]

I find her endearing. My taste is perfect, thank you very much. You just don't understand that there's more to Kira-chan than her catchphrase.

"Too good"? All of her URs have come home to me, you can't say she's too good for me. Besides, there are way better girls than Fumimaru.

[hairstroke]

What makes your tastes better than mine, then? It's not just her catch phrase that annoys me.

If you are just going to burn her URs like that, then you aren't deserving of her! [ He's totally jealous thoug because Fumimaru is HIS best girl...] Your ignorance is astounding. Not only is Fumitan cute, she's also hard working and her singing voice is like a chorus of angels.

[ Yes. He called her Fumitan... ]

[promisedyou]

Oh, is that so? Maybe you should tell me why you don't like her besides that, then.

Also, you're being a gross otaku. You gave her a nickname. She's a fictional character and you gave your best girl a nickname. Next I'm gonna hear you saying, out loud, unironically calling her your "waifu."

[hairstroke]

Because she's obnoxious and rude!

[ ... Except that in Leon's case, this is the pot calling out the kettle because he has no fucking room to talk. ]

HOW DARE YOU CALL ME THAT?? I'm not one of those people. It's just a silly nickname with no meaning behind it.

What? Are you getting jealous over a fictional character?

1 / 2

[promisedyou]

She's not that horrible.

Like she might be rough around the edges, but that's because you don't pay nearly close attention enough to her to see that she's actually a kind and loving older sister that ends up getting the short end of the stick not only by the other members of Mousai, but their competitors, too. It's so sad!

She wasn't treated that badly in the manga adaptation of the series, but then again, her personality was drastically different in that iteration along with her backstory...

2 / 2

[promisedyou]

More importantly, Leon. I'm surprised, considering she's somewhat similar to you.

[ Since said fictional character wants to go after her dreams and become number one... sound familiar? ]

But to answer your question? You say it's just a silly nickname, but you called her your 'best girl' and promptly went to defend her the moment I spoke any ill of her. Not to mention that you were practically singing her praises.

Oh. And need I mention that you gave her, a fictional character, a nickname and not me, your actual girlfriend? How can I not be jealous?

[hairstroke]

[ What are you talking about??? That doesn't sound familiar at all. Shiji Shiji Shiiiiiiiii

THE FUNNY THING IS, he honestly doesn't even dislike Kira. It's just that this loser felt the need to diss his girlfriend's best girl after feeling sooooo attacked. ]

Truthfully, your knowledge on her is pretty impressive. HOLD ON, the two of us aren't alike at all???

Mio. She's just a fictional character. Isn't the point of this post to ask about our ~*best girls*~ or whatever. Besides YOU started it by proclaiming that I have shit taste. So, naturally I'm going to defend my favorite character. Look at yourself, you started defending Kira the moment I said something bad?

In my defense, I gave her that silly nickname long before you and I started dating. [ DON'T JUDGE HIM, HE'S BEEN PLAYING THIS GAME FOR A REALLY LONG TIME. ] I want to give you a nickname too but I'm having a hard time coming up with something that sounds good and I want it to be perfect.

[ He's not Rena and he sure as heck isn't going to call her 'Miichan' ]

[promisedyou]

I care a lot about my favorite girls, after all. And yes. You guys are alike. You're totally alike.

Like... have you heard her solo version of HEARTLESS PLANET? [ It's the ripoff of LOVELESS WORLD. ] It's probably one of her best solos. Not to mention that she's an excellent rapper for Shiny Silhouette.

And I

[ ....you know what. She'll type the rest of this in his native language because this got a little bit more serious. ]

I did, but I didn't expect you to be playing and making a statement about your best girl. It's stupid, isn't it? That I get jealous so easily. Because I just want you all to myself.

I don't want you to have other best girls.

[hairstroke]

[ Upon seeing her switch to Cantonese, Leon decides just to respond to the entire message in his native tongue, given the serious topic on hand. ]

How are we alike?

No, I haven't but I suppose I could give it a listen to one day just to see what you are talking about.

[ The next part of his message does shock him. He was partly joking when he brought up the notion that she was jealous of his "best girl". He's the type that gets easily envious of other guys, so he didn't expect that she would be the same... ]

Mio... it's not stupid. You're well aware of how jealous I get. I want you all to myself as well and I want to be the only man that you love.

So don't feel bad. Besides, she's just a game character who means nothing to me. You're the one I love and... my forever best girl.

[promisedyou]

[ This entire reply will also be in Cantonese because yeah, this post became serious even though that wasn't the intention at all in the slightest bit. ]

You're both goal driven to be the best at what you do and it's one of the things that I like about you, Leon.

But you better listen to it immediately! I won't accept you pushing it off, got it? Not to mention that the new solo boxes come out at the end of the month, which I'm really excited about.

[ If she has to go over there and blast the song into his ears, she fucking will. ]

I know.

And I'm happy about that. Truly. Hearing you say that means so much to me. And on that note, now that I'm less inclined to be salty, did you see the second half of the Luneours set drop?? I'm playing JP and I know WW is behind quite a bit, but there's a site that shows all the girls. I know Fumi's in this half as an SR and the UR for this half is Sapphire so it's a Mahane/Sapphire pair.

I haven't rolled yet, but before I do, do you think I should roll?

( OOC: Also, I'm dumb and have to make a correction to an earlier tag -- I meant to put WILD STARS and not LOVELESS WORLD and the ripoff name for WILD STARS would be "CRAZY CONSTELLATIONS".

Good job, self. I'm a true Love Live fan, I swear. )

[hairstroke]

[ God dammit, she's right and he hates it.... kind of. He does enjoy the part about her liking him for those traits. ]

... When you put it like that, I suppose it's not a bad thing.

You're so demanding. Fine, I will go listen to it right now. I should have my thoughts on the song in a few moments. Yeah, I'm pretty excited about the solo boxes too. I can't wait to listen to Yuki's in particular.

[ Minds well support the second best girl! ]

It's cute you got jealous over a fictional character. I say go for it. I play on the JP server as well because I don't want to wait on certain cards. Mahane's not a favorite of mine but I liked the design and I was fortunate enough to obtain her UR.

I say go for it. I quite like the designs of these cards and you may get unexpectedly lucky.

( OOC: YOU'RE GOOD FRIEND!!! I'm also a good love live fan because it didn't even register in my mind that the Loveless World solos aren't out yet. WAY TO GO US!! )

[promisedyou]

I never said that it was a bad thing to begin with!

But you better give me an honest review, alright? I won't accept any lies or biases. It's too bad we can only download the songs online through things like iTunes.

I'll let you know what I get when I roll, though. I'll even take a picture when I do because I need to make people salty. ☆

[hairstroke]

Well of course! There's no way it would be a bad thing.

Alright. I gave it a listen to. It's pretty good, I appreciate the deep singing voice that she uses, I was surprised to hear it but it sounds nice. Happy now?

Aren't you the evil one? Good luck. I might roll for her depending on if I have enough time but do show me if you manage to get her card.

[ There's a long pause before his next response. ]

Usamio

[promisedyou]

Yep, I'm pretty happy with that response of yours. It's pretty surprising, you know. It just goes to show how talented her CV really is!

Also I'm doing it right now so you don't have to wait too long.

Is that supposed to be my nickname? Are you calling me a rabbit?

[ also attached to this is

an image of her roll, which is......... the featured SSR and two copies of the UR in the same pull. What. ]

[hairstroke]

Yeah, it's really impressive how she's able to do two completely different voices. She's certainly talented.

Do you like it? You've always reminded me of a rabbit. [ Wait for it. ] You're mean and cute.

[ ALSO HE'S... JUST GOING TO STARE AT HER ROLL WITH HIS JAW DROPPING TO THE FLOOR.

WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK MIO??? ]

HOW??? You got TWO URs?!

[promisedyou]

Yeah. I can do it too, you know! I'm just as talented as any CV out there, and I'll prove it to you.

But you see rabbits as mean? That's kind of sad. But... I don't hate it.

Oh, as for that roll, that isn't my first time getting a two UR roll. My luck is strangely pretty good.

[hairstroke]

Oh? Then show me the next time we see each other in person.

No, I don't. It was just a joke since I think you can be pretty mean. However, you are adorable just like one. That's good you don't hate it.... Usamio.

Seriously?! How is something like that even possible?

[ He's going to stare in disbelief because how the heck is her luck that good? He's.... not jealous. Not at all. ]

[promisedyou]

I won't do that. It has to be a surprise. ☆

But I'm glad that you think I'm cute. Not so glad that you say that I'm mean, though!!

It just is. You don't think I'm lying, do you?

[hairstroke]

See? That's why I think you are mean. Teasing me by making me wait...

No, I don't. I'm surprised that you were able to pull it so quick but I know you aren't the type to lie over a game. So I believe you.

[promisedyou]

Look, there's a proper timing to these things, Leon! [ at this point, she's stopped Caring about typing in Cantonese and went back to English ] By the way... how do you write your name in Chinese?

Well, I had the LG for a roll from the event and some green tickets, too. But thank you. For believing in me.

[hairstroke]

Why do you need proper timing for something like that? As for my name in Chinese it's 鍾 利昂
Is there a reason you want to know? But I assume you aren't going to tell me.

[promisedyou]

You'll see when the time comes.

Hmm... I'll tell you this time for this. ☆ I was really just curious! And I wanted to see what kanji is used. But that kanji's perfect.

Because the kanji for "鍾" combined with the first kanji in my name, "愛" means "deep affection" in Japanese! Don't you think that's cute? ♡
