all 5 copies, babeeeeeeeeey!!!!!!!!
I may have burnt out trying to get multiple copies on JP, but that's what auto is for in ENG~ I'm so excited to have him!!!!!!!!!!!!! Even if I once again failed to get T69 in an event...I was off by 1, just like Spring Night ;w;


yes I dug out my ranking screen from two years ago and yes I'm still salty about it...so close!!!!
....I swear I have other things going on in my life but sometimes a lot of that is just SCREAM ABOUT ENSTARS so that's what I'm here to do~ Especially with the anniversary about to hit OwO

SPEAKING OF THAT. I was mostly excited for the 11th anniversary stream in JP (happening on Sunday morning!!), but we got details about the 10th anniversary for the CN/KR/TW servers, and....we're getting extra stuff????????????? They're releasing cards with global exclusive art + MV outfits on top of all the sphere coordinate stuff for?????? idk why but I'm not complaining!!!! The art does not follow the ~standard~ style and it's kinda obvious they used multiple artists...but it's kinda charming in a way?


some of the units did get hit hard with the shota beam, lmao
At first, someone in one of the discord chats I'm in was saying that global is getting these outfits instead of the sphere coordinate ones, but they just couldn't fucking read. Liz found the details on the KR twitter and it's like....they use the sphere coordinate coins in the images for the anniversary announcements???? So we're definitely getting them~

..................shame ENG is so far behind that we're only on the 8th anniversary ;w; GOOD THING I PLAY IN CN SO I CAN EXPERIENCE THE NEW THINGS EARLY!!!!

4piece starts in ENG tomorrow, though, which is super exciting!!!!!! Still feels unreal that we've not just caught up to where I started in JP but surpassed it......not bad!! Just wild :0 I'm super excited to max Leo in Lumos's honor ♥ How else am I supposed to memorialize my cat if not to max her oshi's event card? It's what she would have wanted.

Though I'm a bit burnt out on tours, ngl. We had two in a row before Ringing evil phone and then in JP there was just the year end tour, which was draining...

OH. RIGHT.


in keeping with year end tour traditions in JP, I got two copies each of Subaru and Hiiro!!!!!!!!!! three years in a row now~
I wasn't originally gonna go for two copies, but then I solo'd a third copy of Niki, and I figured that with a 130% event bonus I could go for it XD Seriously, his BMU banner was so kind to me...I solo'd two copies of Niki + a second copy of Sena's most recent theme scout. So I guess Niki is trying to redeem himself after I failed to get either his M∀N∀ shuffle card or cross scout...we'll see if I forgive him XD

In non-enstars news, I was slightly late to renew my personal domain name and now it's not working right :T I'm hoping there's just a slight delay for the nameservers to refresh, but I swear to fuck I've had so many weird website issues this year...like okay, this was on me for being late with payment, but usually it comes right back online????? idk man. plz don't make me deal with getting things fixed in complicated ways again...

OH MY GOD HOW COULD I FORGET???? RAIKA IS THE NEXT BRIGHT ME UP SCOUT BOX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


and he's so fucking precious I'm gonna throw up he's adorable
I have enough dia to scout for him a bunch of times tonight - since I ended up spending not very much on the event due to all my rate up bonus - and thanks to the way JP does scouting now, I have nearly enough coins saved up to spark him!!!! SO RAIKA IS COMING HOME ONE WAY OR ANOTHER!!!!!!!!!!!! MY PRECIOUS DUMB BIRD SON ♥

Oh!!!!! And speaking of Raika, behold:


100% Raika completion!!!!!
I didn't quite max his fans yet so I can keep dragging him around for work, since I also wanna get his office stats up as much as possible. I'm just so excited he's finally here in eng *w*

Less(?) exciting: I got two copies of Kaoru's cross scout and 0 of Yuzuru's ;w; Plus very shitty 4* scouting, so my event rate up is only 60% for VS. Princess. I'm debating scouting a couple more times for me, but I was trying to max at least one of the members of Eden from their TRIP album box D: Since KEEP OUT is hands down my favorite enstars song (and one of my favorite songs in general, ngl), I wanted their cards....even if I think the outfit is questionable.

I'm blaming Hiyori for the stupid butt ruffle

BUT WHATEVER. It means that my fave song is now finally in the ENG server, and that's good enough for me~

.......sorry that my posts are so image heavy; I take too many screenshots in enstars XD I just have a lot of joy about my dumb phone game, okay? But I really should make something for lunch, cuz I feel grumpy :T

EVENT CARDS GET!!!!!!!!!!! With more than 24 hours to go!!!!!!! :D


featuring my first ever Esu 5*!!! to be fair this is only his third, but the first two were gacha ones and I haven't been lucky enough to snag either yet ^^;;


and another green Subaru, but 1) his attribute has better synergy with my other green Trickstar cards and 2) he's got pretty damn good stats cuz he's a tour card~
Honestly, the set list of this tour has been really good! Tours can be such a grind if I don't vibe with the set list, so I'm really glad I like this one...since I am a little burnt out on jp events already ;w; I just don't wanna miss getting all the cards from this new chunk of Main Story, especially since I snagged all the 4piece ones last year.

I do have some mixed feelings on how they've structured some of the rewards for this tour. In the past, any backgrounds from an event have come from points rewards (usually around the 800k-1mil points mark, which is about where I end up if I'm not going for the 5*), with the option to purchase them later for a single memorial coin each if you missed them. Which is nice, because there are some really pretty backgrounds from past events that I've picked up because the price is right.

HOWEVER. In the current jp event, both 5* and one of the 4* have backgrounds that you unlock on the card (one background per card), which is something that usually only happens with cards from the gacha. There are also backgrounds from points rewards, so??? idk????? This means you'd have to spend 10-30 memorial coins per background, depending on the card you're snagging, which is kinda fuckin excessive. Like, okay, yes, you're getting a whole card and not just a background, but you're unable to even see a preview of the background if it's from a card.

Like many things with the big changes enstars has made this year, I'm on "wait and see" to, you know, see how I feel. It's just...a small thing but still one that makes me fussy. I know I'm actively playing in jp and keeping on top of events, but being able to snag older event backgrounds for a relatively cheap price has been really nice- in both jp and eng!


but I do like the fancy promenade in the mega sphere - courtesy of Esu's card ♥ - and I just had to put Kohaku and Madara there~ also pleased to have the SCR room outfit of demon Mama- everyone plz give me good luck at eventually getting the last two copies for the MV version!!!!
idk I'm not sure if I'm actually super upset or just fussy because I overdid myself doing a shit ton of dishes and other house cleaning related stuff today :T Also bleeding.

..........and maybe also because I've only gotten a couple hours of sleep the past few nights because I'm still trying to fix my sleep schedule D: Life is hard when you're nocturnal and/or depressed or something.


also it's my precious stupid bird son's birthday today!!!!!! featuring his 2024 birthday pasha card, because it's running in China this year ♪
okay that's enough I'm gonna grind the tour more (or maybe get back to making icons again...maybe)
