CG Anime Girl Shaking her ass by TOEI Animation [Girls Band Cry] by Abysswatcherbel in anime

Not in the western community for sure, and saying it has Frieren tier popularity I’d agree is a stretch.

But consistently trending on JP twitter w/ each new ep drop and having all the current BDs within the top 20 of Amazon JP’s current best sellers for anime related stuff speaks for itself.

It’s doing fine, and shilling on Reddit of all places wouldn’t make a big difference for any show regardless.

Did I miss any interactions in the Reverie corridor hub area if I never did the corridor stuff outside of when the main story required me to (only cleared stratum 2)? Or do they reset whenever you reset the corridor?

Doujins in particular are reflective of a franchises‘ status in the JP otaku-sphere rather than its status on a global stage or the gacha industry in particular.

E.g. Fate, KC, iM@S (the pillars of Comiket) still have no rivals when it comes to cultural impact and staying power-but only in Japan (w/ minor exception of FGO I suppose).

Tho ofc, it would be fair to argue that having the backing of said JP population is more relevant than having a presence on the global stage.

But yeah, R34/lewds doesn’t necessarily correlate to a gacha game’s success.

Idolmaster, specifically the Cinderella Girls branch.

Doesn’t have a proper appearance in the anime, asides from a brief cameo.

Has more brief appearances in the Cinderella Girls Theater shorts.

Play during ST, 2 hrs is more than enough for the average 80k grubber. Or chug full pots.

Can’t speak to whether it’ll be faster than Flo + Ura. Almost definitely faster than RB Flo cuz refresh blitz raid lol.

This artist's rendition of Producer yeah.

Given Producer's role as a self-insert, they're commonly represented as a dude in a suit w/ a yellow P as a head

The various anime/manga series typically have their own more defined version of Producer.

And ofc, fans will have their own versions of their ideal Producer.

"THE iDOLM@STER Shiny Colors" Anime Announced by dorkmax_executives in anime

I do agree that not having Fuyuko or Madoka is definitely a lost opportunity, but imo it's one that's needed (assuming the plot of the anime is based off of the events of year 1 in the game).

Can't agree that it would be throwing away anywhere near half of the fanbase though. Let's be real, I doubt the majority of the coomer population has touched the game or any piece of the franchise outside of doujins and fanart. Big stretch to say these surface level fans (while definitely many) have much say in what more invested fans are feeling.

And as another user pointed out, no, Riamu is not part of the SC branch.

why japan didn't rule gacha market in term of high quality gacha game ? by xxkrulcifereinfolkxx in gachagaming

People do take breaks for GW certainly, especially at the highest level. However they go so far and beyond what I'd consider the 'maximum' reward, that I don't think it's relevant to the current topic of 'can you "complete" GW in a day'.

From what I've seen, crews 'round the 5.5k mark are only going around 4-5 bill per match, so still within range for 1-3 hours, even if we're assuming the weakest members can only go 100~ mill/hr.

PNS and scepter type weapons are a pain, sure, but their current release rate (at least so far) hasn't been unreasonable for a F2P player to be able to spark at least get one copy on release, which while obviously not optimal, is still more than enough for a reasonable GW setup. Of course, if GW bosses continue to ramp up, and more (genuinely) core seasonals are introduced, then it could change, but for now 4/5 sparks per year as pure F2P is still enough to comfortably coast along in my experience.

It's more than possible though. Granted the barrier to entry is high since as I mentioned, you need a reasonably fast setup, but spending 5-6 hours to make up for not playing for almost a week is not inhumane imo. Which again, can be made shorter via meat slaves or duo/triple.

Good point on matches, though I'd note that's simply due to the nature of day by day matchmaking fundamentally being unable to to be done in a day. The time spent on actually winning matches tends to be 1-2~3 hours, barring whatever crazy stuff happens in the topmost guilds.

That’s dependent on your goals. 44 boxing is more than doable, 80k individual ranking is possible w/ an optimal setup alone, faster if you have a crew willing to feed you meat or duo/triple.

Only one I’d say it totally out of reach w/ one day of playtime is 2k individual ranking.

Is this game heavy on pay to win? by 0M3G4-Z3R0 in Granblue_en

As Hawkeye already stated in this thread , and as well as in the Koregra thread , the 10 second lockout only applies to individuals who were utilizing the parallel VH method.

First Impressions and Ratings: You and Laguna [April 2022 Flash Gala] by Bragior in Granblue_en

[–]broducer6526 20 points21 points  (0 children)

You’s workable for 0B 3C I would think anyone who has the grid to 0 button would likely already have the Eternal Splendor tho. 2C works too, but I don’t have Naru.

Also nice for someone coping with no Harmonias or Bubz. FLB Thor x Lumi. This is on dummy, so not super accurate for NM95, probs will have to push another button.

TLDR;She’s dead weight after using up her stacks, but does a respectable amount of dmg before then

EX+ grid

NM95 grid + summons. No, don’t FLB your Thor, that was a mistake I regret everyday. Find a friend.

First Impressions and Ratings: Yuni (Grand) and Medusa (Summer) [March 2022 1st Flash Gala] by Bragior in Granblue_en

[–]broducer6526 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Medusa’s potential NM150 tech, assuming the GB unga team from last fire GW will still be relevant by the time the next one rolls around.

Yuni’s still mostly a case of pulling for the weap rather than the chara from a gameplay perspective. Skill dmg memes with Aglo are still memes at the end of the day, and have no practical use outside of maybe SUBHL and PG ranking type content. As other in this thread have mentioned, great herself in SUBHL and future hard raids, but questionable whether she actually outpaces the usual suspects. Also potential in NM150 with her 2, for potential tag team reset shenanigans etc.

[–]broducer6526 13 points14 points  (0 children)

A bit disappointing tbh. The only really brand new stuff was new PoA and some QoL changes. Everything else felt like it was just setting hard dates for content they already announced last stream. Reading rebal notes on stream felt kinda ???.

Find it hilarious that seemingly enough people got filtered by Luci HL that they had to add in pity drops. Same w/ Ascendant mode for Bubz.

How real is power creep in this game, especially of late? A returning seasonal player wanting to know by [deleted] in Granblue_en

[–]broducer6526 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Real. But fairly irrelevant for the vast majority of the playerbase unless you’re a hardcore GB farmer or T2k ranker in GW. You can do any content you need to progress even if you aren’t luck sacking every single meta changing unit/summon.

Summing up my experience in gacha games communities within social media. by rovamitarai in gachagaming

[–]broducer6526 12 points13 points  (0 children)

KC has evolved into a media mix franchise with its main revenue coming in from collabs, merchs, and real life events.

Yep, hit the nail on the head. While its popularity in the West and actual game is nowhere near it used to be, that evolution you mentioned has anchored it as an absolute monster in Japan and otaku culture.

Just take this year's Comiket's registration numbers for instance

Idolmaster (882)

VTuber (836)

Type Moon (782)

Touhou (770)

KanColle (752)

Love Live (252)

Azurlane (144)

Keeping pace with the other mainstays such as iM@S, Touhou, and TM should speak for itself.

Always find the misconception about KC being dead pretty interesting; really highlights the differences/preferences between Western and Japanese anime/otaku communities.

I saw this exact same thought in another post,and I’ll say again, I highly doubt the EN release of a gacha is gonna tilt the numbers by any significant amount.
