if you were to throw operators straight ahead like javelins, who do you think would fly the furthest/fastest? (Platinum would be in a perfect 1st place, imo)
Excellent question. In no particular order:
Platinum. Lightweight, short, aerodynamic. This horse is optimal for long-distance chucking, just bear in mind that she is TOO light and thus strong gales might throw her off the intended course. One of the legends of Operator Javelin Toss.
Gladiia. She's significantly taller than Platinum and her supersoldier physique makes her quite heavier as well, but if you manage to throw her, she's basically a spear. The swordfish that swims through the skies.
Phantom. This cat is rather tall, but his lean, sinewy build suggests a light build. The ultimate technique that can evade even Folinic: Ask someone to throw him. Miss Christine bans the technique, but you wouldn't say no to those big ol' cat eyes, now, would you?
Shalem. This one's cheating, but who's the referee? Basically, tell him his backstory is catching up to him, and marvel as he rewrites the known laws of physics, grabs himself by the legs, spins himself like Mario 64 Bowser, and throws himself all the way to Sami.
FrostNova. This one's also cheating, but if there's a strong gale and Platinum is too unreliable due to it, winds are known to carry ashes quite far.
Dusk. This one's unintuitive, but she has reached incredible distances after being too annoying and getting thrown on reflex. Not particularly aerodynamic and crashes loudly. Dusk is an outlier and just happens to have been thrown by very strong people.
Durin. Bad for javelin toss, actually, but excellent for shot put.
Myrtle. Read Durin.
W. A counterintuitive pick, given her voluptuous physique and volatile temperament. Despite this, she's the Reigning Javelin after the current Operator Javelin Toss champion, Mon3tr, broke the record using her, throwing her right into the plot across incredible distances. "GRRRRRAAH" -- the Champion's words after receiving its gold medal and commemorative tungsten plaque.

i love your lil bean arknights so much they fill me with Joy,,, (and for an actual question) what program do you use to animate?
thanks!! i like making the beans so it's a win win
I use clip studio paint ex to animate (which is on sale almost every major holiday; perhaps theyāll do a halloween sale?), and like 90% of what I know about animating on csp stems from this ~20 min video, so I highly recommend checking it out!
Gender Headcanon: Iāve been thinking a lot about her being a trans woman and it makes me really emotional for many reasons
A ship I have with said character: RenMerry of course!! Iāve talked many times about how much I love them and how important they are to me... Theyāre perfect and thereās a lot of ideas to explore with them. Cute and happy, serious mysteries, hurt/comfort, heartfelt peaceful gay hifuu future... I never get tired of it.
also Iād like to remind everyone that this is a thing that exists and thereās a love confession at the end :) I wanna read the novel for it one day...
A BROTP I have with said character: I really like the idea that sheās met Sumireko in her dreams a few times... My hc is that Sumireko had already passed away when Renko and Merry met, but if they could meet Iād love to see them talk about Renko... Grandma showing baby pics of Renko to Merry... lol
A NOTP I have with said character: Nothing really comes to mind so Iāll just say Merry/men
A random headcanon: She collects things that remind her of specific moments in her life, to ground her more to reality. Simple entrance tickets to places, photos, old little objects...
General Opinion over said character: She is so wonderful... I adore all the hifuu club members but sheās probably my favourite. I love her design(s) because when drawing her I can indulge in frills and fluffy blonde hair lol. Sheās a great character to think about, with a lot of mystery surrounding her, her powers, her link to Yukari, her future... Sheās had nice character development over the years with the CDsā stories, a part of me wishes Zun would give proper closure to The Merry Mystery one day, but I also hope he never will! I want her to stay a beautiful puzzle that I can only imagine possible answers for :)

Kaoru tends to quote Shakespeare while also having 0 idea of what the quotes mean (which is also why she Hakanais every 2 seconds) n I rly want her and Junna to meet
jun jun would fucking murder her for being a fake fanĀ
DARKYā¦THERE HAS BEEN PUBLIC FOOTAGE OF āDAYDREAM WARRIORā SINCE OVER FIVE MONTHS AGO;;;;;
You know how Aqours did a parade + live at the T-Spook Halloween event back in 2017? And made a bunch of overseas fans super salty because IT WAS A MERE Ā„1500 (LESS THAN $15 AT CURRENT RATES) FOR THE PARADE TICKETS AKA A CHANCE TO WAVE AT THE SEIYUU LITERALLY RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU AT AN EVENT WHERE YOU ARE ACTUALLY ALLOWED TO TAKE PICTURES + VIDEO???
Luckily for us poor saps, Fuji TV was kind enough to broadcast the concert on TV a month later, and of course fans rushed to record and repost that broadcast for everyone to see. This is what I was referring to when I mentioned the āabsā move in āDaydream Warriorā:
Putting aside my enormous bias for Shukashuu, I can assure you that out of all the Aqours members, Shukashuu pulls off this move the best. Aikyan comes in at a close second, but Shukashuu just makes this looks so smooth and sensual andā¦idk itās just REALLY GOOD. There are a ton of reasons to love this song, but this little part of the choreo gets me the most.
Better yet, the 2L version of Daydream Warrior enhances the dance because theyāre in the KoiAqua outfits. That outfitās top is short enough to reveal a bit of Shukashuuās abs soā¦ššššš
Just Google āaqours t-spook daydream warriorā and youāll find tons of places where you can see the video of the performance. Hereās one - skip to around 1:37, 2:55, and 4:20 (haha BLAZE ITā¦because Aqours is on fire with this dance tbh) for the best parts. :3c
Iāve compiled answers to all the asks I got back when the Live Viewings were happening in February and March! I wasnāt going to answer them until I finished writing up my LV report (currently on hold until I have a big enough chunk of time to finish and release the next part), but since thatās taking forever and Anime Expo is coming up, I figured I should just answer them all now before it got too late. Itās been over 4 months... _(:3 ćā )_
ASKS MAY CONTAIN FIRST LIVE SPOILERS.
I tried to write at least a couple of sentences for each to make up for the 3-4 month lag in answering, as well as lack of Shuka reaction pictures and tags for each individual ask (ā¢Ģ ā ā¢Ģ)ļ»ā§
(Note: I used blog preview to format the ask images in this post and it converted all the apostrophes back into HTML code for some reason wtf... so if you see random ā'ās floating around in the asks, well...)
(Note 2: Some of the previews were so messed up that I just screenshotted the ask straight from the draft page lmao)
YES!! Everyone blew me away during 1st Live!! Actually you could tell that they were kind of underprepared BUT All of them were trying their best and having the time of their lives doing what they loveā¦ thereās nothing more amazing than that ;__;
Yozora totally broke me ššš
And to express how broken I was I broke like, 6 UBs during Shukaās solo danceā¦ (:D)|ļæ£|ļ¼æ
I love Shukaās dancingā¦ the whole thing was beautiful tbh
Thank you for taking the time to talk to me and sorry I didnāt answer this for four months :ā)))
hi anon! I hope you had a great time at the 1st Live LV! Hope Shuka (ā¦or Rikyako actually) didnāt end up giving you cardiac arrest on Day 2, because you have to at least live to see the next set of live viewings coming up in a couple of months :3c
Shukaās legs are nice, arenāt they? :D is that too creepy for me to say LOL
Makes you appreciate how many You costumes come with short shorts :)))
@icedq: why wonāt tumblr let me @ you :(
I agree, Shukaās dancing was incredible ;__;
Itās likeā¦ not just the sheer amount of acrobatics she does, but also just how happy she looks when she dances? You can really tell that she loves dancing, and it makes me happy aaaaaaaa
WAIT I DONāT REMEMBER WHAT HAPPENED DURING SUWAWAāS INTRO the struggle of answering asks 4 months late DID SHE HUG SHUKA AGAIN?
As for the encore, the one part I remember clearly is when Shukashuu zoomed down the runaway at full speed, ahead (pun intended) of everyone else in Aqours, like an excited little kid ā even though she should have been super tired from all the singing and dancing. It was pretty memorable for a lot of people. A true display of Shukaās limitless genki energy wwww
Iām glad the live made you so happy!! And thatās something I really love about Love Live!ā¦ it makes people smile (ą®āą® )
Yayyy Aqours :D
Iām happy you enjoyed your Live Viewings so much!
Seriously, you sound so excited ;__;
Thank you for supporting Rikyako as well! Everyone has such big heartsā¦ Iām sure Rikyako really appreciates all her fans T_T
āLove them allā is a great phrase to live by as an Aqours fan :3c
You have my approval, I salute you (ļæ£^ļæ£)ć
Same!! I was literally on the floor dying when I heard that they wore MIRAI TICKET costumes at First Live. They look super nice on the seiyuu aaaaa I hope they wear them to AXā¦Ā
I find them cool because theyāre pseudo-suits :3c
Hello and thank you!! I hope you enjoyed your LV in Thailand! Iām honestly touched that people halfway across the globe from me take the time to message me about what they love about Aqours and Shuka ;__;
I can tell that you like Shuka a lot (ā¢Ģ ā ā¢Ģ)ļ»ā§
So thanks for the message! I was able to confirm at my own live viewing that Shuka is indeed very cute, energy, beautiful, and a true Goddess :3c
@lmlm7 (tumblr wonāt let me @ you either wow)
Hi LM! Thanks for always following my blog! :D
I really had fun watching First Live! (:D)|ļæ£|ļ¼æ
Sorry the LV posts have been taking foreverā¦ on the bright side, Iām probably going to acquire a lot of pictures that might interest you at AX this weekend :)
Look forward to it! o7
I did not watch a Day 2 Live Viewing because they werenāt offered in the U.S. T_T Butā¦ Iām spoiled for pretty much everything that happened that was different from Day 1 (thanks Twitter ( ā¾āæā¾ ))
Even so, I donāt remember hearing about Arisha scolding Shukaā¦ š
Thanks for telling me and canāt wait to see it on Blu-ray ( *Ė0Ė*)
This I know I did, because I lost my voice after KoiAqua (ā¦ which was the second song in the setlist. And there were 20 songs in the concert. RIP)
Sorry you couldnāt attend a live viewing :(
On the bright side, the Blu-ray is out in three months (dates are closer than you think!), which means I can go crazy with timestamping and gifing in three months. Look forward to it :)
Never been more alive :^)
Shuka blew my mind at First Live. So I guess it would be an understatement to say I had a good time :3c
Thanks for the good wishes o7
Iā¦ donāt remember if I did this, Iām sorry ;__;
My mind was completely blank for most of the Live Viewing. Everything was too overwhelming. Sensory overload. I can assure you that I screamed something along the lines of OMG SHUKAKUSKAKFLSA a lot.
ā¦ Actually I donāt even remember if I was coherent enough to scream SHUKASHUU lmao
First Live? Well, not completely (listening comprehension is difficult... even in English lol), but I can understand enough :O
To be fair, Iām pretty sure a large fraction of the people who went to see 1st Live outside of Japan donāt understand Japanese, but paid to see a LV anyway. It helps that the lives are mostly songs, rather than MCs and speaking portions. There are also parts like the call and responses that many fans already understand, even if they donāt know Japanese.
ā¦ Too late š
Pretty much continuously had genki-shock heart attacks throughout the entire live viewingā¦
But hey, I survived. And what doesnāt kill you makes you stronger :^)
Onwards to 2nd Live!
@darkaacā
Wh
What are you talking about? ( ā ā ā;;)
Are you sure you have the right person :^)
@keipointoā
HELLO! Were you the person I shook hands with? I think that was youā¦ Sorry for the awkwardness, I didnāt really know what to say _(:3 ćā )_ (But of course thatās not your fault at all! It was just my first time talking to a follower that I didnāt already know irl š)
I thinkā¦ Yozora was my favorite performance out of the whole liveā¦
ā¦ Of course, thatās my gigantic Shuka bias speaking lol
I was already spoiled for the solo dance from Twitter so I started freaking out and cracking UBs as soon as I saw Anchan and Aiai leave the stage on carts. The solo dance was so goodā¦ā¦ I want to personally thank the choreographer for letting Shuka show off like that T_T
The rest of the song was amazing as well. The star-drawing special effects, the stage effects, Anchan and Aiaiās singing, Anchanās face at the end of the songā¦
I love Yozoraā¦
shukamod pieces were glued back together haphazardly following First Live. Everything is alright now (ā¢Ģ ā ā¢Ģ)ļ»ā§
Thank you for your concern ( ā¾āæā¾ )
Makes me wonder if Iām just as screwed for 2nd Liveā¦ (yes)
(Sorry for the censor, just trying to keep my blog family-friendly ( ā ā ā;;))
I lost my voice and my whole body was sore for a couple of days, but I made a full recovery (woooo)!! And oooh, did you go to the NYC viewing too? I think we had the worst weather. Seemed to be nice and sunny and not 20 degrees Fahrenheit at most of the other U.S. Live Viewing locations.
Hopefully I donāt have to pass out hand warmers at the next live viewing we getā¦ But hm, if itās 2nd Live then I donāt think itāll be a problem, seeing as itās August/September :D
I had a lot of fun! Thanks for thinking of me ;__;
?! So fast, anon. 2nd Live hasnāt even happened yet o_o
I assume you mean 1st Live? ... In which case, ONIBE is probably going to work on translating it, but no promises for now (especially since the Blu-ray hasnāt even come out yet).
Weāll see :)
Thank you, youāre so considerate ;__;
But considering this ask was from over three months ago, Iām sure that Iāve been taking too much time by now :ā)
Thanks for reading it even though it got so long! Sorry youāve been waiting so long for the other three partsā¦
And wow, thatās such a compliment ;__; I honestly donāt think Iām that impressive especially if you try to talk to me irl RIP social skills, but I like meeting other Aqours fans! Iāll be at Anime Expo, and I attend handfuls of events in the Boston area since Iām a local there. I usually post on my blog if thereās a major event Iām attending, so just let me know if you happen to be in the area as well and Iād be happy to chat :D (though knowing my luck and the Love Live! fanbase, you probably live somewhere far away)
Bam. 21 asks. AX asks coming soon.
tl;dr finally got around to answering these because LV report is way delayed and it would feel weird if I answered them after I answered the AX stuff, considering how old these asks are.
