Apparently when you click on the song cover while in promises, it actually previews the song as you wait for more promises to load. Was just checking out the coords required for a specific promise and accidentally found that they actually implemented it in the game. After playing the game for almost half of a year, I've discovered you can actually listen the song preview while waiting for the promise you've selected to do. Not sure if you knew that was in the game or not?

Oh! That's kinda neat. No, I didn't know that.

Let myself do another pull as a little reward.

I GOT. AROMA'S. ONE PIECE.

I still haven't completed either Santa coord. AHHHHHG.

Decided to put some of my Grandprix gatcha tickets in Aroma's Christmas gatcha because I have been trying to complete Mikan's blue santa PR SINCE LAST YEAR...

The blue skirt... TWO MORE TIMES.

And the red shoes... AGAIN. I DON'T HAVE EITHER OF THE TOPS. I wasted so many tickets on this last year too......

Laala's CR is OK I guess........

"Idol ni ... Yameru"

I tried my best for the gran prix. I played about 36 times and haven't gotten the full winter set. Guess my efforts were worthless..., 😔

I'm sorry to hear that.

I mean honestly, same...

I played maybe about 130 times increasing my bonus as I went, and I ended up in 114th place with 8,882,834 points when the cutoff for top 100 was 9,808,089.

This means I could have stopped after 5 million and still had the same rewards. I did nearly 4 million extra points for literally no reason hah ha ha...

So we'll both have to plan a little better next time.

I dunno if you read my post but you only needed 1 million to complete the silver coord, which I think wasn't too bad if you were able to convert your promise tickets to grandprix tickets before the event. I try to explain how to get all the rewards within the day the event is released. And if you have any questions feel free to hit up my inbox!

I heard a lot of people gave up on this event because they didn't want to play the same song anymore. And yeah. I didn't either haha! Basically what I do is I play it until I know the rhythm pattern, then I turn the volume down and do something else while I'm playing like listen to YouTube. Towards the end of the event I was literally walking around the house tapping the screen and still getting gold hearts hahh!

And now that it's over I honestly miss my Idol Land and chill time at the end of the day. I used to do that with LLSIF and replaced it with Idol Land, but only during events... uuu.....

[pretty-idol-hell]

And here's PriPara's only Hibiki/Ajimi duet... (sort of)

[pretty-idol-hell]

Yui's Christmas medley without all the game sounds so you can actually hear it! And Shogo's too!

Edit: oh my god i forgot

Be with you Be with you please kiss me tonight

Be with you Be with you I want you tonight

SHOGO NO

[pretty-idol-hell]

It's so cute...look at the snowflake pattern!

Yes...I got the gold version which means....I was in the top 100!!

I ended the event at 63 with 10 tickets left!!

There was an error! It appears to be fixed now. Close the app and try again.

Is anyone else getting Error code 99 after updating?

It literally loads in, does the opening song then crashes

In the end, I calculated the money I would need to spend but not the time... I had to throw in the towel and go to bed or I was gonna have a bad time today. (I decided being awake to teach my students was more important.)

And it's hard to complain about the rewards I did get.

[pretty-idol-hell]

A second Christmas gatcha, a Yumerry Chrismas gatcha (hah) was added as of 12/18/2024.

It features mostly Yui and My Dream stuff. New PPRs are Yui's regular CR (oh, we didn't have that yet?) and a red recolor of Michiru's CR.

There's other My Dream PPRs too such as Yui's gold Yume Rare. No Christmas PRs, it's all My Dream stuff.

The only new Christmas coord is that one SR!

But there's the Yumekawa Rainbow Yui coord, a random R I always liked. And the... Cheesecake Circus coord!? Haha a coord I have seen before, but I never knew the name of it I guess...

[pretty-idol-hell]

Three new character parts added as of 12/18/2024!

The snow white eyes, the reindeer nose, and the Kirameki Wave hair.

Which is Mia's hair. However, it was added long before Mia was in the game. So it's the Kirameki Wave hair!

[pretty-idol-hell]

Welp, as of 12/18/2024, PARTY'S OVER.

Looks like they made good on their promise to remove Idol Party. Five person lives will return "powered up" in the future, and with more songs!

But look, what's this...?

THE CHRISTMAS MEDLEYS. NO WAYYYYYY. FOR REAL!??

The Hibiki with Ajimi medley and the Yui with Shogo medley!!?

Two new songs that weren't on the Switch with new stages!?

And do we get to keep them!? These were limited time only songs on the arcade game.

I honestly thought these songs would never see the light of day again...

Amari fills in for Shogo in the official promise.

Here's the premium shops!

There's one more Christmas medley, the Shogo with Yui one. (But I believe it was a DanPri song, so.)

[pretty-idol-hell]

Even if I don't make top 100, at least I got another rank-up out of my 155% bonus.

Or at least I will tell myself that.

[pretty-idol-hell]

Me in a couple hours.

[pretty-idol-hell]

I finally ran out of tickets yesterday....

Yuck.

Okay, time to do some math.

(Also yuck.)

The current 100th place person has 8,389,443 points. I am getting 55,000+ points per game.

8,389,443 - 6,335,763 = 2,053,680.

2,053,690 ÷ 55,000 = about 37 tickets, I'll round up to 40 since I'll need to maintain anyway.

At 300 gold per 10 tickets, that's about 1,200 gold.

Huh.

I started writing this thinking I would conclude that it's way too expensive but that's not as bad as I thought.

Dammit. DAMMIT hahaha.

The cutoff for top 100 is now 6 million plus.

Ugh. I know I said I would stop after 5 million, but I still had tickets left and it would be silly to waste them when I am getting 55,000+ iine per game.

I have noticed things slow down in the second week of the event. I do still need to play every day to stay in the top 100, but it hasn't been as hard as I thought. But the moment if truth is coming. What to do when I run out of tickets...

I unlocked all the rewards so the only thing on the line is the gold version of the Winter Dream Parade coord. Furthermore, if I stop now I will more or less win back the tickets and gold idollars I spent on the event gatcha in the first place. It's my last chance to break even.

But. I've already come so far......... how many more tickets would it take....?

[pretty-idol-hell]

I'm trying to get more comfortable with rudimentary video editing. In this video, if Avex lets you watch it, I cut together episode 1 of PriPara and episode 1 of Idol Land to show some of the parallels between Laala and Amari's debuts seven years apart!

[pretty-idol-hell]

Does anyone else just randomly think about that lost 2D Dream Theater performance where Laala's team were magical girls?

Look how cute this was. Laala and her friends worked so hard on it.

Imagine how cute the song would have been if they wrote one.

But they didn't even get a CGI coord change.

Probably because they knew they were never gonna show this again nor release the coords on the arcade game. But they could have? But no, for some reason they didn't.

Release the witch coordsssssssss.
