[#🤖] sometimes things happen that are out of your control, and that will be okay. life brings people to crossroads and sometimes, they will take a direction that is a step away from you. the best thing about the modern age is that we are eternally one call away, or one message away. remember to keep your friends and family close and always appreciate them. and it is a privilege to think about all the time that we spent together when we walked on the same line.

Heisei/Reiwa Kamen Rider Bike Riding Time research

Hello there! Does anyone remember from a little while back when this image was going around?

For a while, at least in fan communities I frequented; this was quite infamous for showing just how sharp a decline Kamen Rider's namesake had become in the last few years, with the absolute nadir of the Heisei 20th anniversary Kamen Rider using his bike for a total of 47 seconds (and also, on the other end; just how much Kuuga would not get off his bike)

Obviously, it's been a few years since Saber now; and I've found myself wondering from time to time exactly how the Riders since then have fared, especially since both Geats and Gotchard have garnered a reputation of sorts for putting a bit more emphasis on the bikes and feeling like they have more screentime than your Zero-Ones and your Sabers.

So! I went looking and found the source. This extremely dedicated Japanese poster called Yamashita Radio who of course I will be basing the majority of this on, including his rules and his counting. And when I say 'dedicated' I mean that at one point he lost all his data so he just counted Kuuga through Saber all over again. MAD respect for this man! I highly recommend a full readthrough of this 5-part post at one point because it's very impressive and interesting stuff in my opinion

One other interesting point is that that chart there? That's main rider only; and also includes any riding they did as civilians. There is a separate chart for all motorbike riding in the show as a whole; including other riders, including monsters, including even just random civilians! For posterity, I think it's important to post that chart for comparison with the main rider one -- I've colour coded here so that red is Heisei 1 (Kuuga-Decade), green is Heisei 2 (W-Zi-O) and yellow is Reiwa (Zero-One onwards). Main rider only on the left, all biking on the right.

Up front there are some absolutely fascinating observations to make here - Zero-One had the least bike scenes of any show! Brand new era of Kamen Rider! - but I think I've talked about the past enough. With all this said and what I feel is a very important plug to make, let's get into the meat of this -- how do Revice, Geats and Gotchard compare to previous shows?

Rules

... okay, yeah, sure; let's quickly establish a baseline first. As I'm going off of Yamashita's work, I'm also going by all his rules; it's a good thing I agree with all of them because I kinda didn't want to completely redo the count of every season!

TV Show ONLY! No movies, no TTFC specials, no HBVs, no V-Cinema, none of it. The main reason given is that, uh, Paradise Lost has a 100+ bike scene near the start so that's too much of an advantage -- fair enough! Personally I also think it's more interesting, because movies generally have more budget and allowances for bike scenes so those tend to be the same. Maybe a separate count would still be interesting, but I think including movies would flatten out the times too much and make the data pretty uninteresting

No openings! Agito has too much of an advantage

Non-transformed states count the same as transformed states. Godai riding a bike is the same as Kuuga riding a bike.

All motorcycles are treated equally! Mopeds and even CG scenes and bikes are allowed

Other vehicles such as cars, trains and even bicycles and hoverbikes are excluded. Two big exceptions are made for Drive and Revice as they do not have a main motorbike otherwise, but this does exclude things like Gaim's Dandeliner, many of the Oni in Hibiki's transport vehicles, Den-O's Den-Liner, Gotchard's Steamliner and Madwheel and Decade's Agito Slider

Transformations of the bike still count as long as it's being ridden. The Boostriker turns into fox mode while you're riding it? That's fair game

Flashbacks and other repeat footage ("previously on" segments etc) don't count of course. But in cases where it's clearly stock footage but it's still a new event, like the many Ryuki Rideshooter scenes, that's still counted

Count from the moment the bike is straddled to the moment the bike is gotten off, and everything in between. Scenes where the bike isn't technically visible - such as close-ups of the rider's face, or cutting to another character's reaction - are still counted if it's all the same scene

Revice

3m21s (2m23s for Revi only)

Oh lucky me, this was actually done for me! Yamashita made a small update after Revice finished to add this. I just went over and double checked it.

At 3m21s, Revice is at this point the series with the 2nd least amount of bike riding; above Zero-One and below Zi-O. For Revi alone he's in 3rd least; above Zero-One and below Saber. Happy 50th anniversary!

An interesting note here is that Ikki never rides Vice Ptera untransformed -- concerns over the actor's safety, maybe? Daiji also pulls in 58 seconds for the show on his own motorbike, but abandons it completely after episode 13; only bringing it back for the summer movie (which is also the only place he rode it as Live). Interestingly, the 12 seconds he rides it with Sakura in episode 13 is the only time he uses it in the show after becoming a Rider. The skateboarding scene in episode 7 for Jackal Form goes on for over a minute, but unfortunately can't count for this...

I think most people expected Revice to place quite low, though. So let's move on to a show I think a lot of people expect to place higher.

Geats

4m05s (3m45s for Geats only)

I keep repeating it, but this is a show where it seemed a lot of people got the impression of the bike having more importance than before. I think there's a lot of aspects that come together into that -- the bike being tied to a specific 'special' item that's even part of the main rider's main form, the upgrade forms going off of that, and the bike being used in prominent scenes including in the first episode. Geats even arrives on it in his Revice summer movie cameo!

But ultimately if you look at riding time, Geats ends up in 3rd place for overall bike time; above Revice and below Zi-O, while for main rider only Ace ends up in 5th last; above Saber and below Decade. As such he ends up being the main Reiwa Rider to use his bike the most.

This is where I started splitting main rider and untransformed rider in my personal tracking charts, just for fun -- I actually couldn't do that for Revice because as said Ikki never rides anything untransformed except his bicycle. Until episode 11 Ace actually just slightly edged out Geats for having more bike time which was enjoyable to see.

A very interesting thing happens in regards to the Boostriker's transformed state. I decided not to include finishers involving it unless the Rider is specifically riding it -- and the one and only one to do so was Buffa in episode 6, accounting for every single second he rode the machine. He had a penchant for using the buckles' weapons in ways he wasn't supposed to, and he kept up that rule even when the 'weapon' was a bike.

Geats spends a decent amount of time in the final episode sitting on his bike while talking to Regad and the other Riders, and that really saved the show's overall times.

Gotchard

5m09s (2m32s for Gotchard alone)

According to production blogs, Gotchard had a stated aim of using the bike more. Unfortunately it seems this didn't manifest itself in a very major way... but I think we did see more interesting uses of it! Spanner has his own bike (that like Daiji, he never rides transformed!), there's a version of Golddash from the future, other characters including Golddash itself ride rather than Hotaro at multiple points!

For 'others', the 3 seconds in Episode 2 is when Minato rolls up to deliver Golddash to Hotaro personally. Episode 9's 5 seconds have Renge (with Sabimaru in the back) riding it to deliver Hotaro's cards to him in Kyoto.

Spanner shockingly saved the series' overall time here in a similar way to final episode Ace, by sitting on his for an extended period of time during his conversation with Lachesis at the start of episode 47.

While it's not a very long scene nor did it change anything for the rankings, the bike scene in the final episode that just aired is notable for an extremely rare instance of a Rider Machine being ridden by a Kamen Rider's final form. To my knowledge this has previously only been done by Agito, Den-O and Revice (the latter in a movie). Fittingly for a show where part of the direction was inspired by Agito, both Agito and Gotchard do this Final Form bike scene in their final episodes.

And now, for the final count...

Gotchard ended up in 21st for overall bike time between Zi-O and Saber, but this was largely due to other characters; so Hotaro alone ended up in 22nd between Revice and Saber.

Overall we're now 5 shows in instead of 2, we can indeed see a very large dropoff in the Reiwa Era -- including Zi-O, the most recent 6 shows are all at the bottom of the list. This is especially notable when The next most recent series, Build, had 12m31s; almost double that of Saber's -- and this wasn't uncommon, with Ghost and Ex-Aid sharing similar times.

This was the main thrust of my research... but what say we go on a little addendum? Because when I mentioned Yamashita updated his post to include Revice in 2022, there was... one other series he saw fit to do a count for. One that was only halfway through, but nonetheless saw an impressive amount of bike riding time. He only got halfway, but what say I finish the job out of pure interest?

It is "Avataro Sentai Donbrothers"

The extremely normal 2022 entry into the Super Sentai series has a number of bike scenes. Some you may expect from Don Momotaro riding his CGI Enyarideon on his Palanquin for much of the first cour. Some of you might say that CGI shouldn't count, it's easy enough to animate together a scene than deal with road laws and such -- but does Kijibrother not count? Does Inubrother not count? Do none of the mech scenes count? It's a festival, people. Let's enjoy it.

Even aside from the CGI, Yamashita noted halfway through the show; that can't quite account for everything else. Sonoi has a bike he rides in multiple episodes, every time with a wheelie. Inuzuka twice within 4 episodes steals a bike and almost runs people over with it, as is perfectly fine for a hero. Don Kaito shows up with his own motorbike to promote his new book, which you should buy. For a show where it's not even in the name and for recent Sentai, there's an awful lot of riding going on.

Yamashita in his post speculates that part of this is Inoue's own habits -- as a man whose Toku experience largely consists of regularly writing for Kamen Rider in the 00s, it's natural to expect he would be inclined to write something like "Inubrother escapes the scene on a motorcycle..." as if it was second nature; as if that's nothing special for a modern show.

And I would be inclined to believe that... as such a habit is something that would likely get ironed out after a while; and sure enough, while bike scenes are frequent for the first half of the show, they disappear entirely from episode 23 to 43. It is at this point in my own count I thought we would simply never see a large bike scene from the show again, and the sheer fun of counting up Donbrothers would be lost.

And then... he appeared.

My saviour from the future.

With a full uninterrupted 1 minute 15 second bike scene

I could hardly believe what I was seeing. I remembered the future episode but I had completely forgotten this was a part of it. When I started timing this episode I was leaving the house fairly shortly and I figured like the past 20 episodes this would be easy enough to count, and I was utterly bewildered. I should never have disbelieved for a moment.

With all that said... where does Donbrothers end up in full?

7m21s (4m23s for Don Momotaro alone)

This overwhelming record easily puts both Donbrothers and Don Momotaro in 20th place of their respective charts; beating all Reiwa Riders and Zi-O -- with Don Momotaro even coming close to dethroning Kamen Rider Decade's riding time!

This is where we stand, my companions. In an era where Kamen Rider's biking time is lower than ever before and shows no sign of significant recovery, Donbrothers swoops in to steal its glory. Never lose faith. The festival never ends

KENGAN ASHURA: any characters you’d like with a s/o who has a business and is a business person who’s part of the Kengan tournaments but they have another fighter.

ohma, raian, gaolang, agito (separately) x CEO!s/o

warnings: cursing, death threats, violence

a/n: i didn’t do any kengan omega characters since it clearly says kengan ashura even though i love my boi koga 🥺anyways, i hope you enjoy !! oh, also, i used gn pronouns for the reader (when necessary) since it seemed like that’s what you wanted in your request :3

tokita ohma would be incredibly jealous. like extremely jealous. he doesn’t understand why you’d ask someone else to be your company’s fighter when you’re literally dating him. he is always around whenever you’re strategizing with your fighter + he’ll make little quips like “i’d knock em out faster” or “i could beat the shit outta you so easily”. whenever you’re not around, he’ll make death threats toward your fighter to try to get them to back out so he could take his rightful place as your fighter. you have to set some very serious + clear boundaries w ohma so he can chill out. you’d have to explain that the main reason you don’t want him as your fighter is because you don’t wanna subject him to injury just for your benefit, even though he’s told you many times that he’d gladly go to battle, and die, for you. i could see him becoming fast friends w your fighter if they’re competent + laid back. he’s still jealous that you didn’t choose him, though. he has kind of pure intentions…but we all know the bastard just wants to fucking fight + even better, fight for you.

kure raian is going to be so fucking petty about it. he immediately starts bitching + whining to you. when that doesn’t work, he will seriously try to scare the shit out of the fighter you chose. i honestly don’t see him stopping at killing your fighter. if that happens, you realize you pretty much have to let raian be your fighter or else. if he decides against killing your fighter, he’ll make their life a living hell. and yours. he is around you + your fighter ever waking moment you spend together. first, he makes sure nothing fishy is going on. two, he makes sure that your fighter knows that they’re dead w a single wrong move or loss. your fighter might end up running away out of fear for their own life. raian will probably end up becoming your fighter one way or another. it’s completely unavoidable.

gaolang wongsawat likes that you’re strong willed + doesn’t really mind that you didn’t choose him to be your fighter. you guys keep your relationship + goalang’s job v separate, so he truly has no problem with this. he will, however, do a little bit of training w your fighter for both his + your benefit. it’s nice to have someone to spar w him since they’re always around but he also wants to make sure that they’re a competent fighter. he trains them super well + he helps your fighter bring you massive success. he wouldn’t hold back while fighting in a real match, though. sorry, but he’s going to put your fighter in the ground + not even feel bad about it. in the back of his mind, that’s kinda what you deserve for not choosing him to be your fighter. you know he’s more than capable. but again, he likes that about you. you make your decisions for yourself + he’s ready to stand behind whatever decision you make.

kanoh agito is surprisingly okay with it. he trusts your judgment + while he knows he’s stronger than 99.9% of the world, he lets you make your own decisions. plus, he knows he’s legally obligated to fight for metsudo so he wouldn’t be able to fight for you. that doesn’t mean he won’t help tho. he’ll even offer to spar with your fighter to make sure they’re actually strong enough to bring in success for you. you appreciate his help + he does everything he can (inside of his contract w metsudo) to make sure that you will be successful w this fighter. he’s also v aware of the fact that you may have a fighter who’s not him for official kengan matches, but your true protector will always be him. he wouldn’t entrust that job to anyone else as long as he’s alive. not ever.

Tender to the Touch

Kanoh Agito x Afab!Reader

Content: P in V (unprotected) sex, creampie, slight dirty talk, nipple play, slight overstim, dom reader

The night had unfolded just as you expected it to. You were sat on Agito's thighs, stroking the boner in his tight-fitting boxers. He was propped up on his elbows, his head lolling from side to side as he let out a few sighs.

He was very needy tonight. He wouldn't leave you side the whole day, so it seemed as if he had been waiting for this moment.

"You want me to touch you more?" You spoke in a playful, but low voice. His boner twitched as he nodded. "Use your words"

"Yes, please" his voice faltered slightly, his cheeks painted with a light pink. You smiled and tugged at the waist band of his undergarment. His length sprung out, the tip already glistening with pre-cum.

"You've been hard all day haven't you?" You grabbed the base of his dick and scooted yourself closer. Your folds almost teasing it.

"Hm" he nodded, his fingers tugging at the sheets as he yearned for more of your touch. You began to slide your entrance up and down his length, teasing him by not putting inside yet. His leg muscles tensed as he let out a throaty grumble.

"I haven't even played with you that much, but I feel how hard you are. This must've hurt to not touch" you looked up and saw his large chest rising and falling. Good lord, you always knew how large his...breasts... were. But damn, they looked almost heavenly as the moonlight danced on them.

Stopping your movements, your hands felt up his abdomen to his chest. A grin pulled at your lips as Agito looked at you, not quite sure what you were thinking.

"Y'know" your index finger traced circles around the dip in his chest. "Your body looks very ravaging tonight" his dick twitched between your folds, pressing against your clit as you melted your torso onto his.

"Escpecially these" your hands softly cupped his man boobs. His breathing hitched as his body jolted. 'My my~'

"Tell me something, my love. Are you sensitive here?" Your fingers squeezed his pecs softly, massaging them gently as you waited for his reaction.

"Mm" Agito only hummed. The sheets were bunched up in his palms as he closed his eyes. Parting his lips a little. He was clearly holding back his reactions. You weren't gonna go easy on him for this.

"Well then" You placed your hands so that his nipples were placed between your fingers. "I wonder what happens if I just-" you squeezed them so that his nipples slightly poked out along with his skin.

"Ngh!" His back arched as he stiffled out a surprised moan. "Very tender for a fighter" you grinded yourself on his dick as you continued to play with his chest. He squirmed under you, failing to keep his composure. He felt how wet you were getting, all these sensations were driving him insane.

He moaned out your name as he lost his balance on his elbows. Grabbing your hips and looking for more friction between your pussy and his cock. "Shhh, I'll put it in now" you guided him into your entrance, lowering yourself as you felt him stretch you out.

Agito watched in desperation, trying not to buck into you. Your warm walls clenching out him was enough to render his mind useless. "Fuck. That's it" you felt him bottom out, feeling it inside completely felt wonderful.

Your hips slowly rolled, feeling his cock hitting all the right spots. Agito had one hand on your waist and the other covering his mouth. You balanced yourself by placing your palms on his chest.

"I'm gonna go faster" you leaned down and kissed his nose. "You don't need to hold back your voice. It turns me on" your hips moved up and down. The sound of your thighs hitting his resonating in the room.

Agito groaned with the rhythm of your hips bouncing on his. Your eyes almost rolled to the back of your head as his cock continously hit your g-spot. Soft whines left your mouth as your hands began to squeeze his chest again. His hips jerked, catching you off guard as a cry of pleasure escaped your throat.

"Mn! You like it when I grab your chest huh? So sensitive and soft"

He huffed as he tossed his head back, his thoughts only of pure bliss. Muscles contracting every time his girth slid in and out of you. He couldn't last like this.

You could feel him throb as he neared his edge. You felt your heartbeat in your clit as your vision got hazy. Your fingers had a mind of their own, as they pinched his nipples without even realizing what you were doing.

Agito cried out a guttural sob of ecstasy as his other hand landed on your thigh. His hips driving into you as his cock ached for release. His once slicked back hair was now messy, tears almost rolled down his cheek. He wanted to cum. He wanted to cum so bad.

"Please- please- I'm gonna..."

"Cum inside me. Shit...I want it. Agito, cum in me. It's okay" you mewled, biting your lip as you pinched his nipples harder. He let his body do the talking. His back arched once again, your pace unyielding. The bed was creaking as the sounds of skin slapping against eachother echoed throughout the room. You were lucky you got a separate house instead of an apartment or a condo.

Agitos hips stopped moving, only lightly twitching as you rode him until he came. He choked out your name while you felt his seed fill your insides. You slowly grinded on it to get every last drop of him, moaning quietly as you felt the cum drip out of your pussy.

You took your time with sliding his cock out of you. Watching as his sperm spilled from your folds. Agito pushed back his hair, trying to catch his breath while staring at you. His body trembling at every inhale he took.

"Came a lot more than usual" you crossed your arms on his chest and rested your head on them. "Never took you for someone with highly sensitive nipples" you teased, smiling weakly as your own body recovered.

"Can we...try that again at a later time?" Agito pushed a few stray hairs out of your face.

"Anything for you, darling"

[shittytokudetails]

did you know? There was supposed to be another police rider project in Agito, Like the G system and the V system, it got far in develop before being canceled, there's just a little bit of information in the Japanese side of the web, dont believe in me? just google 仮面ライダー R18

SIDE EVENT 021 ( CHUSEOK & LGC FAMILY CONCERT 2K24 )

a reminder on side-events; they are non-mandatory occasional events that your muse can choose to participate in or not.

while missing an event might mean missing out on points, be aware that choosing to take part in it could have positive or negative consequences for your muse. there is also no telling which part of the event will have consequences either since they will be tailored to make it difficult to guess what could impact your muse. while the final consequences are decided at the same time as the event is created, we will only reveal them the sunday after the deadline if there are any. so choose wisely: are you willing to make a gamble with your muse?

( important note: EVERY MUSE in the company will take part in the event canon wise, whether or not a mun writes for it. )

sometime around EARLY AUGUST, all of the parties involved ( IDOLS, ACTORS, MODELS, and TRAINEES ) gather together to their assigned locations by their managers and coaches as they begin to disclose all of the details pertaining to LGC FAMILY CONCERT 2K24.

TRAINEES ( STAGES )

as briefly mentioned in TRAINEE MISSION 018, all of the trainees would have started vlogging their day in the life as a trainee videos and in the next few weeks, those videos would be edited and compiled to create multiple videos that will be shown on LGC’s youtube channel and throughout LGC FAMILY CONCERT 2K24 as a chance for new and old fans to get to know the trainees even more!

on AUGUST 18, the trainees will be told that they will learn and/or practice the following songs:

AWKWARD SILENCE – FUTURE DREAMS S2 ( SENIOR MALE TRAINEES; FROM NOSTALGIA S2 )

( important note: for the NOSTALGIA S2 songs, ic wise those were selected as some of the most viewed performances from the season [ aside from week 7/agito week ]. )

ooc wise, since some of the trainees can come and go, there will be no lyrics distributions for this. do note that regardless of skill set, all of them will be required to dance to the song assigned to them ( and ic wise, the coaches would have assigned the parts after asking all of them [ minus the encore ones ] to audition by singing a snippet of each of the songs ).

CO-ED SUBUNIT DETAILS

as mentioned in the V&A MISSION and CRYSTALLIS MISSION, ic wise the idols chosen were notified beforehand about the song and who they will be working with. but ooc, the idols selected for the unit were CRYSTALLIS’ ASTRID & YOUNGWON, HARU’S HANKYUNG & JOSHUA, and V&A’S JEON HARU & SEN. they will be performing and releasing ‘LIES ALL LOVE’ on the day of the concert ( SEPTEMBER 27 ). line distributions can be found HERE.

SPECIAL STAGE ( NOVA )

on day 2, NOVA will be performing their own version of NKND's "girls, love boys, love girls", which will be called "GIRLS LOVE BOYS"! you can find the line distributions for this over HERE.   

INTERVIEW & GAME PANELS

for both days, all of the ACTORS and MODELS will be a part of the panels where fans and attendees can ask questions from their favorite celebrities! based on everyone in LGC AGENCY’s notoriety, they will be grouped as follows:

SOLO ( DAY 1 )

HAN JISOO

KIM JINYOUNG

LIM SANGHYUN

GROUP ( DAY 1 )

AHN YEIN, CHO MINKYU, HAN HYUNHEE, JO EUNWOO, KIM CHERRY, MOON JIAH, PARK SUJIN, ZHENG LEO

SOLO ( DAY 2 )

BAEK SEONA

KIM JINSEO

SHIN JIEUN

YANG AERI

GROUP ( DAY 2 )

BAE SOJIN, HAN ROWON, HAN SEUNGHYUN, LEE HYUNSOO, MOON JINO, NAM GYURI, YOO HAEMIN

( important note: people who had at least 500 NOTORIETY OR MORE since the beginning of AUGUST were given a solo interview panel and anyone with LESS THAN 500 NOTORIETY would be placed in the group panel. )

for the SOLO panels, each actor/model will be asked a series of questions ( within a 1 hour minute time frame ) by the fans regarding their recent gigs throughout 2024 ( eg. “any memorable instances filming a cf/drama/movie”, “what can we expect in the latter half of 2024” )  and about themselves ( hobbies, interests, etc. ) by the end of the panel, the actor/model will be given a chance to randomly pick 3 lucky winners and they will be given a chance to have their photo taken and signed by the artist!

as for the GROUP panels, it will be similar to the SOLO interviews but with a gaming component included. the GROUP will first see a big bingo board, where each square is either a general question asked by one of the fans ( eg. “show us your best aegyo”, “what is your favorite gig you’ve done in the past year?” ) OR a mini-game ( eg. “play rock, paper, scissors against the host. whoever loses gets hit with the toy hammer. if they do not win 3 individual rounds of the game, they cannot get the square”, “reenact a famous scene and if one of the fans can guess correctly what movie/drama it came from, you can claim the spot” ). for the mini-games, in order for the GROUP to claim that spot, they will need to win the game. if they lose the game, the spot will not be available. if the group gets a “BINGO” by the end of the panel, they will get a chance to give 3 lucky fans a small gift set signed by the actors/models from that group.

because there are multiple interview panels, some of them will be going on at the same time and any DEBUTED ARTISTS who aren’t a part of a panel during that time or have any bit of free time CANNOT visit other people’s panels.

V&A ANNIVERSARY FAN EVENT

per request by various ETERVAL communities, LEGACY has added a mini fan event for V&A to attend to. while their anniversary is on SEPTEMBER 27 ( same day that they will be performing ), the event will be on SEPTEMBER 28 before the concert. during the first portion of the event, there will be a V&A trivia game between 7 lucky super ETERVALs ( one for each round/member ) and the 7 V&A members. the questions will be quite group specific, testing both teams’ ability to recall as much information as they know about V&A ( eg. “what month, day, and year was [insert song] released?”, “when was the fandom name revealed?”, “what is the title of the third song in [insert album]?” etc ). then in the latter half, the ETERVALs will be split into smaller groups and have a hi-touch moment with their favorite member. each member should have an equal number of fans lined up for them.

near the end of the event, the V&A managers will take several group photos with V&A and all of the ETERVALs who attended and it will be posted on their social media as a way to thank them for attending the event.

OFFICIAL GROUP NAME REVEAL ( NKND )

on SEPTEMBER 28, it will be revealed publicly that the trainees in the “new kids new dreams” project will be officially be called MZSD ( and for the observant people, the group name has been hinted since 2022 as mentioned in this article )!

A NOTE ON IDOL ACTIVITIES

hi everyone ! as we approach our fifth anniversary, we're so grateful to still have muses around since (almost) the beginning, and since our initial opening, lgc has grown in a way none of us have ever imagined before. we think it's a testament to not only ours, but also our members' hard work that we've been able to ic-debut five idol groups (with a sixth on the way !) within the almost-five years we've been open as a roleplay, and we've always operated in a way to reward our members' commitment and dedication to their groups with new, fun ideas for activities and gigs that keeps the excitement for writing for your muses going, even after debuting. however, we at lgc also like to maintain a certain level of realism in our directory, while also being considerate that both admods and members alike all have real lives that take precedent to roleplaying. hence, we've made a conscious effort to diversify as much as possible for our idol groups in terms of ooc-missions and writing requirements that correlate with ic-career development. it's come to our attention, however, that there's speculation of favoritism amongst the idol groups in terms of what the admod team 'gives them'. to address it bluntly, we have never and will never 'play favorites', and to make that clear, we'd like to clarify as much as we've deemed necessary to finally put the topic to rest.

firstly, we want to address the culture of comparison that's been happening around lgc. as it stands right now, a person could have two muses in the idol career path, in two separate idol groups regardless of gender, and would have two completely different experiences ooc and ic. we intentionally operate this way because we think that one of lgc's charms is the variety we provide our members as writers here. we all know how monotonous and boring idol roleplays can get, which is why we've made a conscious effort to diversify as much as we can as we've expanded. however despite these efforts, it's disheartening, to say the least, to hear talks of comparison more than anything whenever we post new events. we understand that, to some extent, comparison is inevitable, especially when we ourselves simulate an environment of competition with future dreams, awards, and other marks of popularity. but it seems that lately, more often than not, these comparisons and even criticisms are done without the consideration that we purposely give our idol groups their own unique flair, and that what we write out in missions (and even sometimes what we don't write out in missions) is not done because we supposedly favor one group over the other.

we've never planned to release this information publicly, but to cease all debate on the topic, just in terms of music releases, we can break our idol groups down simply:

crystallis is the group with subunits and their own solo shows;

v&a is a self-producing group with their own reactions;

nova gets 6 songs constantly;

type zero gets prereleases; and

nknd releases often but mostly digitally, then will compile in physical releases.

everybody gets two korean comebacks + one other comeback in a targeted market in the original calendar we plan out at the beginning of the year:

crystallis and agito target the japanese market;

type zero targets the chinese market;

fabula and versus target the western market;

nova targets the domestic market; and

nknd currently just targets domestic but will likely also target japan.

these are just two factors that come into play when we plan out an idol group's activities for a quarter. not to mention that agito, crystallis and fabula all have members that regularly act for their notoriety tiers gigs, and as acting career gigs are the most time-consuming along with idol career gigs, we have to also take those into account when writing out missions.

and on the topic of notoriety tiers, we want to provide some context: the Great Revamp of 2021™ really solidified a lot of what we wanted to do for the idol groups early on here at lgc. as the years went on and muses gained more points and notoriety, though, we implemented our notoriety tiers system mainly as a way for our members to provide input into their career trajectories for the first time, but also as a great resource for us as admods to figure out the 'reputation' each group has.

needing to have all this information in place is partially why notoriety tiers gigs happened so frequently in the beginning, but as muses started reaching higher tier levels and claiming activities that required more time and effort for us to plan out, we've had to adapt the way members submit their notoriety tiers forms.

it's now explicitly denoted how busy muses actually are in the forms so that everyone has an idea of the amount of additional work they're putting on their muses through the notoriety tiers vs. the work they already have through their career missions. additionally, this change was done to better reflect just how much a muse's solo activities do impact their group activities, both ic and ooc.

as stated before, realism is important here at lgc, and it's not unrealistic to see idols miss out on comeback promotions because of their individual activities. for us as admods, the choice has either been between (1) planning comeback/group promotions for certain idol groups to accommodate their members' acting gigs or (2) to exclude certain members from comeback/group promotions if their schedules don't permit them. we haven't started the latter, and we don't intend to, but with growing complaints amidst all the comparison, we wonder if taking it to the extent of excluding certain members is necessary to reach a compromise.

for instance, it's unrealistic to give a 12-track full album to a group whose main vocalist is also an actor and busy with acting gigs, but right now, we could give the group a two-track single album instead and only let the main vocalist be on the title track with minimal promotions to still include them in the comeback if that's preferred.

from our perspective, though, it's always been more realistic that during that first seven-year period when an idol signs their contract and debuts, their priority is always the group first and foremost. there's always exception to the rule, and idols do typically have to make that big decision of solo vs. group career eventually. but our most senior muses are at-most three years into their careers, and in the fictional entertainment company that we run, it doesn't make sense for us to let an idol prioritize their solo career over their group's at this point in time.

relatedly, the notoriety tiers have also been a great way for us to see which muses actually aren't eligible for any notoriety tier gigs and as such, we're able to give additional gigs to certain muses as part of their career missions. this is part of our constant struggle of balancing older muses with newer muses, especially when it comes to our idol groups.

as is the natural course of things in roleplay, members and their muses come and go, and that unfortunately means that muses in idol groups do drop and throw a wrench in our plans. along with future dreams, that's part of why we've also introduced team unknown – we'll be honest and say that we had different plans for team unknown, but had to change said plans because of members leaving the roleplay.

again, that's just one of the many factors that we have to take into consideration as we keep the machine going that is lgc. we don't want to over-explain ourselves but at the same time, we hope people can start understanding our reasonings better through this post.

and that's not to say that we aren't open to any criticism nor suggestions. if anything, we always to strive to make ourselves as available as possible to our members either individually on our personal accounts or as a group through the main to consult with us about anything. we have no desires to close those lines of communication, but as much as we want to reiterate that we're always open to discussion as our roleplay continues to evolve, we also hope we won't have to make another statement on the matter.

lgc has always had a long-standing issue of being too events-focused, and we've tried as best as we can to alleviate the stress and dissatisfaction that comes with such a culture by taking in feedback, implementing new systems, and keeping things fresh and fun for everyone as k-pop fans.

however, it's only natural that most people focus on their own muses in idol roleplays and can view other muses getting certain things as missing out on something when, in reality, we hope people can start seeing that they also have things that no other muse (or group) has in lgc. no one has ever gotten less or more, just different, and different is okay.

at the end of the day, we hope everyone doesn't focus too much on the comparison or competition-side of things. lgc is what it is today partly because of what we've curated for you all as an admod team, but mostly because of the unique experiences our members have crafted for themselves as writers and roleplayers.

thank you all for your understanding. please like this post to indicate you've read this announcement.

– lgc admod team

LEE JIHO READS THIRST TWEETS

when he's told he's going on this show, he really doesn't know what to think. it's kind of funny to him, considering that many of his friends call him a boomer because he doesn't really understand internet slang or any slang really, in general. he knows a little bit but he has a feeling he's going to be surprised when it comes to anything that the staff at buzzfeed might find,

he's grateful for all the hours he's been putting into studying english though, considering that he's not a native english speaker and he's sure that most of the tweets will be from that side of twitter that he doesn't fully get.

but it's okay, because it's more for laughs than anything else right?

once he's on set, it doesn't take too long before the cameras start rolling considering that he's mostly here just to react. \

"hello, my name is lee jiho and i'm the leader of v&a and part of agito. please take care of me," he says his greeting, bowing his head slightly from where he's sat.

the first couple tweets are tame.

( credit: @lgcjungsu )

"oh that's sweet of them," jiho says in slightly accented english, a smile appearing on his lips. he had watched a few other episodes of celebrities replying to thirst tweets out of curiosity since he wasn't really someone who consumed a lot of media. the tweets that other celebrities got were far more explicit than this. "i was expecting worse, but that's very nice of them," he says, winking at the camera after laughing a little.

it's more embarrassing than he thought it would be, if he's honest.

many of the tweets were singing praises, and he has to wave off a lot of them mostly because he feels a bit self-conscious as a solo artist compared to when he's leading agito.

( credit: @lgcxnoeul )

"noooo, i don't—don't die?" he says in a slight panic, laughter bubbling in his throat and he leans back in his chair, his friend had coming up to cover his mouth. "ascending to heaven means dying right? i'm sorry?" he apologizes, though bewildered he's still amused, hearing the laughter behind the camera and he glances at them.

"isn't that what this means? am i missing something?"

he can't help the laugh that escapes him here, considering that he's definitely a bit scared of spiders and would probably not be the bigger fan of having one named after him.

but it's still a compliment ...

"i hate spiders," in his initial reaction, and he covers his mouth to laugh after. it's funny, he thinks, how afraid he had been to go on this show since he still doesn't think his english is the best. but it was a good opportunity and he hopes that people will tune in because of it.

"i think daddy long legs existed before me, but thank you for saying i look tall," he says, already thinking about haru is probably going to make fun of him for this. "i appreciate it."

( credit: @lgcxjasper )

"oh ... see i was waiting for one of these," he says after reading it aloud, hesitating on the word daddy but reading the whole tweet aloud without cringing too much. he would give himself a pat on the back if he wasn't on camera.

"i'm only 23 years old ... i don't think i can be your father," jiho says, with an entirely too straight face and he hears laughter behind the cameras again. he glances over to the team, looking somewhat bewildered before someone seemingly explains.

"oh—wait, no, okay," he laughs, covering his face with his hands as his eyes curve into their signature crescents. "wait, no, i did know that. can we cut that out? oh my god," he laughs again, seemingly in disbelief of himself.

"wait—i've heard of this one," he starts, after a laugh leaves him again. these tweets keep catching him off guard and he takes a moment to process, re-reading it aloud. "is it possible to both be a babygirl and a daddy at the same time?" jiho asks, looking confused and he frowns slightly.

"can't you only be one?" he asks, though getting absolutely no confirmation from the staff helping him.

"um, thank you. i guess you did call me babygirl to my face, right? since i read the tweet? yay!"

( credit: @lgcmilan )

his eyes go wide when he reads this one, turning to look at the camera and then looking back at the phone. "oh, well, that's very forward," he says, unable not to laugh once again. he's flustered, obviously, but he glances down at the tweet one more time.

"i, um, that's a very bold pose i guess," jiho comments, laughing a little because he's caught off guard by this one. "and once again, i think i'm too young to be a dad but thank you."

( credit: @lgcsaem )

he reads this one aloud and stares at it for a long time before rereading it slowly. "wait ... i don't understand," he says, looking confused and also a bit pained. it's clear that he hasn't been online to really learn this meme and it's origins, considering that he's never really been someone who was chronically in online spaces either.

"is this ... this is a good thing right?" he looks at the staff again, seeing someone of them stifling their laughter and he just still looks confused.

"there ... i might be stupid, but that's not a real university right?"

"oh ... this is a really nice one," he says, looking pleased and happy with the tweet he was reading last. he hadn't expected that many sweet ones when the theme of the video they were recording was specifically thirst tweets so he's definitely very pleasantly surprised.

"i don't know about a museum, but thank you for thinking so highly of me," he bows his head towards the camera, smiling. "i'll work hard to continue to live up to all of your expectations."

turning back to the ipad, he pauses when there's nothing else and he looks at the cameras to confirm that they're all finished.

"well ... i came into this not knowing what to expect and i'll say i was definitely caught off guard with some of those ..." he trails off, remembering the things he had read and he gives a pretend shudder. "i hope i didn't set off a war between the people who think i'm a daddy and the ones who think i'm a babygirl," he adds, laughing a little.

"my solo debut came out, so please check out 'pose' if you haven't! it's a different vibe from agito things, but if you like agito's music, keep your eyes peeled too," he adds, knowing that by the time this video airs, agito's comeback will be teased and if not they can edit out what he had said.

"thank you for having me here buzzfeed, i had a questionable time here but it was fun too!"

[lgcyushin]

▶▶ LOADING … jack to the pot ( V&A reacts s3 ! )

before the camera turns on, yushin cannnot believe they're already filming episode 3. this has always been a favourite part of their comebacks, and even better since there's a combination of members. maybe one day they'll do one as the full group too, which would be cool, but probably very chaotic, knowing their current dynamics. "you guys ready? yushin looks back to the leader(s) respectively, as they adjusted in their seats and got comfortable. it was fun to react to other group's songs, but yushin really did enjoy doing live reactions to their own feature the most.

"hello everyone, welcome to episode 3 of.... v&a reacts! today we are reacting to none other than our title track... drumroll please," he gently drums on his lap, "jackpot! i'm excited for this. we're here with members of versus & agito today. isn't it nice that we are coming back as a full unit? i hope you missed us, because i missed performing as v&a too. yeonwoo, jiho, haru, max and i are going to see the music video for the first time. i'm always interested in seeing what happens from when we're filming, to what comes out in the finished product. you ready?"

[lgcyoojoon]

to you. feat. @lgcyushin

One of the things that has brought Yoojoon the most comfort since learning he would be joining V&A and Agito is knowing he would be rooming with Yushin. It’s a grounding thought, a lifeline in the overwhelming reality of becoming part of such a famous group.

Having someone he’s known for years, someone who has been there since their trainee days, makes the transition feel less daunting. He knows he can rely on Yushin for late-night conversations and moments of fun, just like they used to share.

With that thought, Yoojoon drops onto one of the two beds in their shared room, a genuine smile of relief spreading across his face as he takes it all in. “This still feels so surreal,” he says, glancing over at Yushin, his feet playfully wiggling as if that might somehow make the moment more tangible.

“But I’m really happy we’re rooming together. Now we can watch those cheesy dramas like we used to when we couldn’t sleep as trainees.” A fond laugh escapes his lips. “It’s kind of crazy to think we’re in a band together now, isn’t it?”

v&a review team unknown mission

song one, versus song - reveal

of all of versus' songs, junkyu's favorite song would have to be reveal. while he really loves secrets too, reveal takes the cake for him. he really likes the tone of the song, how the sound feels completely different from the usual type of song he hears. he really enjoys the blend of the vocals as well as the rapping, and as someone who began his training as a rapper, he really enjoys the raps within the song and how they flow so well. the other thing he really likes about the song is the choreography. he loves the sharpness of the moves, and the almost theatrical parts, and even the more intense parts of the choreo. the lyrics feel so deep to him, specific words used to intensify the emotion and feeling wanted to portray through them, and he feels like the blend of the lyrics with the choreography work so well that it's hard not to like the song. he'd also love to perform this song if he ever got the chance.

song two, agito song - blue hour

while most people most likely wouldn't think it would be junkyu's favorite agito song, personally, he really enjoys the difference of it to what he usually likes. he really enjoys the upbeatness of it, the fun vibe it gives. he loves the music video and appreciates the fun colors as well as the more laid back vibe it brings. he's someone who believes that not every song or music video has to be all dark and sultry and can also be really fun, so he really appreciates and enjoys blue hour. all around, it's just a really fun and enjoyable song and junkyu loves that. he thinks the choreography is really fun too, and he sometimes finds himself dancing along to certain parts when it comes on in his playlists.

song three, v&a song - rock with you

this was junkyu's absolute favorite song when it came out, and even now, he still thoroughly loves it just as much as he did before. he's not too sure what it is about the song, but from the first time he listened to it, he just instantly loved it. it's extremely catchy and he loves the different members' parts, and the choreography, he finds it really enjoyable to watch. it's extremely catchy and so easy to get stuck in his head. he really enjoys the choreography too, one thing he's noticed is that even though dancing isn't his strongest suit, he really enjoys and appreciates good, strong and enjoyable choreography and loves watching the rock with you stages. he loves the lyrics and overall, just how well everything flows and melts together. it's such a fun and good song that junkyu doesn't think he'll ever not like it. it's never a skip for him.

a song junkyu would like to perform by himself - reveal

personally, out of the three songs junkyu chose, he'd definitely choose reveal. there's just something about that song that he loves so much and would genuinely love to perform. he thinks it's such a good song and honestly, a masterpiece. he loves the overall performance, and considering dancing and performance are a couple of the skills he's been assigned to work on, he feels like reveal would be a great song to showcase those skills on, even acting too as there's a slight theatrical element to the song and choreography. he would love to perform reveal and be able to show those skills and just honestly, have the opportunity to perform it. he thinks it's an elite song in every aspect.
