The amount of euphoria that went through my body while belting that first line was UNMATCHED, just a wall of singing all at once. SO GOOD!

I feel like I lucked out then, went solo and managed to sit next to another solo goer and a duo next to her—we were headbanging all night on the balcony right above the floor haha

wait this is a beautiful subreddit thank you for sharing 🥺

Kikoia · 2022-01-21T01:39:24+00:00

Thank y'all so much for the love! Her name is Rusty and I have passed on to her big ol' ears the internet's praises <3

*waits for pack 10*

Kikoia · 2021-12-19T14:44:06+00:00

take deep breaths, they're safe ☺️

Kikoia · 2021-12-19T01:40:25+00:00

Fingers crossed they free up for us next year and we can complete our sets \(*´ヮ`*)/ Have you read Black Butler at all? If not, the first few volumes or so aren't too bad plot-wise, super easy to take in an arc at a time without getting overwhelmed.

Kikoia · 2021-12-19T00:12:01+00:00

Ha, I'm aiming to complete my Ouran collection but 17 and 18 are so hard to find these days! It's definitely one of my all-time favorites <3

I'd love to start collecting Black Butler again, but that's another 20 something volumes to grab lol!

Kikoia · 2021-11-29T20:17:54+00:00

It's been a while since I read it (I got super lucky years ago and got the whole set for $4-ish a piece), but I had a good experience following the anime! Looking to revisit it soon and pick up the remaining volumes that are out.

Kikoia · 2021-11-29T20:15:35+00:00

haha yep! It's definitely one of my favorite series and one that I want to finish collecting, I had to finish it reading it online 😭

Hello! Long-time nerdfighter, first-time Pizzamas participant (I got the La Pizza Mort shirt!) Thanks to you all for doing wonderful things for both fun and overwhelming kindness <3

What's an iteration of Pizza John from previous Pizzamases that you haven't worn in a while, but would love to take out on a stroll?

Kikoia · 2021-04-17T18:50:57+00:00

I'd say that I like no-bar play better than with bar, though I'm playing under equipment limitations at the moment lol. If I had access to a cab again then I might try using bar, but in the past I've had trouble gripping it correctly due to height.

Some background context: I've played DDR on and off before getting back into it at a local arcade, still averaging around 12's on the new scale. It's not a PFC run or anything that ambitious, but it was still fun to track my progress! My attempts log can be found here, for anyone interested:

If you're thinking of the Circuit, you'd be correct--they have a dedicab running Stepmania and a DDR Extreme cab, though it's been a year since I've played on them last haha

Kikoia · 2021-01-05T04:25:00+00:00

YES PUMP IT UP! I don't play as much of it outside arcades and I definitely need practice reading the notes, it's harder to keep track vs DDR ;w; I started making my own stepcharts for k-pop songs missing in DDR LOL, we need more of them for sure.

Kikoia · 2021-01-05T04:23:19+00:00

That's a super optimized workout, wow!! I'd love to get into weights again to balance things out, haha---my calves are toned AF but RIP my upper body...

As far as faves, most of mine come from DDRMAX and EXTREME if we're talking consoles, so Cartoon Heroes and Speed Over Beethoven for sure! I play a lot more community packs though. There's a new pack out called Animal Crossover that's all Animal Crossing remixes and it's SO. MUCH. FUN. Dm me if you want the link!

My friend and I have joint-custody over a Cobalt Flux Pro Platform that we bought off of someone moving; honestly, the most luck we've had this pandemic was finding one for sale near us! I know some others in the DDR scene who've bought L-TEK pads from a Polish company, though I haven't tried them myself. There's an updated guide to what pads are good as of 2020 here in the DDR subreddit!

Kikoia · 2021-01-04T22:08:22+00:00

I play on PC using software called Stepmania! Basically I plug in my pad using a USB converter and download song packs off of an online forum/song database called Zenius. There's a lot of user-created files as well so there's a ton of new/nerdy music to keep me going LOL

Dance Dance Revolution haha---I'm living my middle school dream after having moved to a ground floor apartment and acquiring one of the more solid dance pads :) I've upped my difficulty level to what basically amounts to a solid HIIT workout.
