— Character Playlists!

I, too, am jumping on this bandwagon finally, I really wanted to get this done way, way earlier but liiiiife is such a bitch man, anyways, here are the official playlists for the members of Lovesick!

20 songs each! It’s a bit of a combination of which songs I think would fit their character and what songs I think they’d listen to, some might be inaccurate and are just purely based on vibes but overall I hope it gives you more insight on the members of Kobe Division.

You can find the playlists for Justice Shield here!

Also if you need a refresher on what music each member of Femme Fatale and CodeX sound like, you can click here and here! Note that I’ve updated their playlists to add in new songs!

A playlist to add inspiration for writing your next album

A playlist for when you’re out hunting

A playlist to be the cutest and most popular influencer in the world!

Happy listening! <3

[katsushika-division]

Happy Anniversary to Death Row Block! One of my favorite teams within the DRB! It looks like they were sent some gifts from their allies to celebrate!

To Akihisa, From Max - A vinyl record of an opera soundtrack.

“Happy anniversary, I’m glad we met. - Max”

To Touya, From Kaiji - A very beautiful ring with a deep, dark red gem at the center.

“Happy Anniversary, darling! Hope you have a super good day, the gem was made out of my blood by the way, so just know that I’ll always be with you! - Kaiji”

To Rintaro, From Ren - A motorcycle tool kit

“Happy anniversary, I know you probably already have tools but I figured it can’t hurt to have extra. From one older brother to another, keep up the good work. - Ren”

Of course there was something for the hidden member of the group as well, to Akari from both Ryōhei and Nagisa, she received a Monokuma plush.

“A-akari-chan! We hope you have a good day! - Ryōhei”

“Yeah, yeah, happy anniversary or whatever. - Nagisa”

“We got gifts~!” Touya giggled, sticking his hand out in front of him admiring the ring Kaiji had given him. “Doesn't my ring look pretty? Kai-chan said he used his blood for the gem.”

“Touya I’m not going to even fucking pretend to understand what you and Kaiji have for each other.” Rintaro huffed, more focused on the toolset Ren had given him. “Hell yeah, my old kit was missing a few tools so this a huge fucking help.” 

“Monokuma,” Akari smirked at the plush picking it up, “If I didn't know any better I'd say Ryōhei and Nagisa were trying to tell me something.” 

“Akari you say this as you haven't perfectly replicated some of the Danganronpa executions as Cinder. People have called you a real-life Junko Enoshima.” 

“Oh please I'm much worse than Junko.”

“I take it the three of you enjoy your gifts then?” Akihisa questioned, a sliver of a smile on his face as he stared at the vinyl Max had given him. 

“I love it~!”

“It's cool. Saves me the fucking trouble of going out myself.”

“I can add it to the rest of my merch.” 

“Remember then to thank Lovesick when they come around next time.”

Mireya's Thoughts on Kobe Division

Ren Nakashima

"I've met the man known as 'Vox' a few times, but I don't know him as well as my husband and son knows him. I've actually hired him to play here in Roppongi once. I have to say, when people heard he was making an appearance here at Gypsy's Palace, we had people crowding to get in our doors. I think we made more money that night than we did the entire month. With the two of them combined, he and my husband tore the roof of our club! When it was over, I thanked him and told him the doors of our club are always open to him."

Max Soukoku

"He's the only one from this group I don't know anything about. Even my husband is clueless on him. Zakari says that he often attends class with him, but other than that, he doesn't know much either. All Kai knows is that, according to Ren, he came from an abusive home. That's very sad to hear. If it's true, I hope he is doing much better now."

Kaiji Sano

"...You might find this hard to believe, or that I'm a hypocrite considering I was frequently in beauty pageants as a child, but I actually do enjoy reading model magazines and watching modeling shows. Though I myself don't care for being in them since I'd gotten enough of that as a kid, I believe if it is your choice to model, then that's fine. But no one should force you to do something you don't want to do. I wish that was something my mother realized when I was young." Mireya sighs, but then shakes it off.

"Anyway, getting back on topic, I do pay attention to some of the models in this country. And the one that I always enjoy watching the most is the one known as 'Jinx'. When Kai told me that this young man was actually a 'male' instead of a 'female', I thought he was playing a trick on me. But if I know my husband, and I do, I know that he's never one for playing tricks or being funny. So when he told me that, I was... well, shocked."

"Of course, I have seen male models dress up in female clothing before, but... I don't know, just something about the way this young man does it... it's more 'believable', if that makes sense. To put it simply, I enjoy watching this young man on stage. He's a lot better than most female actors I see nowadays."

Lovesick

"Aside from that 'Max' fellow, I can see how this team is united. They're all famous individuals, though I know not why they are joining this tournament. Kai said that Ren was 'searching for someone'. I don't know how to fully take that, but... in any case, whatever it is he and his teammates are searching for, I hope they find it."

[minato-division01]

On her very special day of birth, three distinct gifts were gifted to the one and only Meari "Bloody Mary" Miracle of one of Minato's Divisions, Oculus.

The first gift, easily which was large, was a speaker in the shape of a coffin, it also came with a card.

'Happy Birthday, Bloody Mary.

Crazy it seems like we've only just met one another but you're one of my good friends both in and out of the music industry. Knowing you, you don't like all the sappy and sentimental stuff so I'll get to the point, happy birthday and I hope you like my gift. I'll be looking forward to see you in the studio some time.

- Vox'

The second gift, easily the largest of them all, was an entire chandelier made with human skulls. Much like the last gfit, this one also came with a card.

'Yo Meari! Happy Birthday!

It fucking sucks that I can't give you this in person but I am kinda busy at the moment with, y'know, things, so I was only able to send this letter. Before you ask, no these aren't real human skulls unfortunately but I hope you like them all the same. Hope you have a great day and I can't wait to hear more from you and the rest of 86!

- Sumire'

Lastly, the final gift, which wasn't as big as the first two, revealed to be a lingerie set and a bottle of fine, hard whiskey. This one came with a card as well.

'Happy Birthday, Darling~

How wonderful that our birthdays are so close to one another, I would do something more special but I imagine our little get together a few days ago is still fresh in your memory, hehe! But here's a token of my appreciation for you, who knows, perhaps I might see you again and if you happen to wear this little piece, well, it would make me very happy to say the least.

Best wishes, hun~

- Lola'

Happy Birthday Meari! ❤

Later...

"You said that Sumire-girl sent this to you?" Iris asked to Meari, who was busy hanging up the skeleton chandelier in the music studio in her mansion.

"For the hundredth millionth time, Iris, fucking yes!" Meari answered, yelling down at her friend from atop the ladder she was on.

"Hey, don't fucking yell at me, bitch!" Iris shouted back. "I was just asking a question."

"And it's a question you done asked about five fucking times already!" Meari argued, before pointing to the chandelier.

"Yes, Sumire sent me this badass chandelier, 'Pretty Boy' sent me that speaker I need to finish setting up, and Lola sent me that lingerie set and that liquor... which Ren better not be fucking drinking, by the way!"

Glaring down at her bass guitarist, who was busy indulging himself with the bottle of whiskey, Meari sighed as Ren, put his hands up in peace, silently promising not to drink anymore.

"It's definitely badass!" Jo shouted, appearing out of nowhere, as she stared at the chandelier, which Meari just finished. "Sumire-chan has good awesome taste!"

"Damn straight, Jo." Meari said, staring up at her work, as the chandelier slowly twirled around, adding a very macabre feel to the entire room.

"Well, as good as the chandelier is," Johnny Zan said, walking up to the trio, smoking. "I'm more interested in that bottle of whiskey. Can we drink some before Ren finishes it all?"

"I'm fucking down for that." Iris said, smirking.

"Same!" Jo agreed.

"You pricks do know Lola gifted that shit to me, and only me, right?" Meari said, scowling at her bandmates.

"Stop being fucking greedy and share!" Iris yelled.

"...You all are so fucking lucky I love you." Meari growled, pinching the bridge of her nose. "Go get some shot glasses, before I change my fucking mind."

Obeying, Jo quickly ran to the nearby liquor cabinet and pulled out several shot glasses for all of the members. Sighing once more, the frontwoman of the band, poured a moderate amount of liquor in each one, completely emptying the bottle. Afterwards, Ren silently raised a glass, which was mimicked by the rest of the band. Clinking their glasses together, the group quickly down their glasses, before letting the festivities continue.

"Now that is how you fucking celebrate."

[fullmetalgirl98]

I....i'm so...eeetto...

Well, I don't really use Spotify that much for listening to music, I use it mostly for Hypmic and Paralive dramas....but MFS IN POLE POSITION?! EVEN ABOVE OOR?!?

(I have to admit I've been listening to MFS a lot these days, tho)

But...the thing that makes me laugh is Loulou*di among the most listened artists and "Hiten" (Rurouni Kenshin 2023 first opening, for those who are wondering) as MOST PLAYED SONG😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Well yeah, I was quite obsessed with it, ngl

[akkivee]

talk of ichikuu slotting themselves into each other’s lifestyles reminded me of a hc i have that shakku initially did not like ichiro upon meeting him lol

kuukou i’m sure doesn’t talk about himself to his father either lol but he knows his son very well, and i imagine the kuukou that left home and the kuukou that returned home (brainwashed) were very different people. if he saw kuukou fawning over this long distance friend, he’d put two and two together and unconsciously place some blame on ichiro for whatever happened to his son

ofc shakku comes around to ichiro and he becomes the son he wishes he had and ichiro suddenly has two harais that love him unconditionally LOL

Thank You!

As Ren’s extended birthday finally comes to a close, I just want to say thank you to everyone who participated in his birthday event! To those who gave gifts and to those who simply wished him a happy birthday, it really makes me happy as his creator to see that my dear RenRen is just as popular as his more eccentric teammates lol. Ren himself is very grateful and appreciative for all the love that he’s received on his special day.

Next birthday event is Lola’s in July so I hope you’re looking forward to her event!

—

Ren lounged on his bed comfortably as he strummed his guitar, the candle Reiaki and Miku gave him was sitting on his bedside table lit aflame, giving his room a warm glow and peaceful aura as he let the sounds and melody of his precious favorite instrument fill the room, he opened one eye to look at the camera before opening both of them and sending the camera a charming smile. “I really don’t know what to say, haha, I’m so grateful to everyone who’s sent me a gift and even more to those that have taken the time out of their day to wish me a happy birthday, you all mean a lot to me y’know? I’m hailed as one of the greatest musicians of my generation but I’m going to continue to work hard to become an idol that you all can be proud of, I just hope that you all will continue to cheer for me.”

[setagaya-division]

Mina's Thoughts on Kobe Division

Ren Nakashima

"The music artist known as 'Vox'. ...Would you believe me if I told you that I'm actually a fan of him. You have Yorii to thank for that. The two of them are in the same profession, so it's no surprise that they both know each other. He brought some of Vox's music home one night and kept playing it until five in the morning. Naturally, some of the songs sounded good, so I decided to listen to them. Now, I'm kind of a fan of his. Not saying I like all of his songs, but some of them are actually quite good."

"I actually had the pleasure of meeting Vox when Yorii introduced us. He seemed nice, but... for some reason, I could smell blood on him. And it wasn't his blood either. I wonder why..."

...

"Hah, it's no big secret that this guy is a killer. I mean, if you listen closely to some of his songs, they sound strangely possessive. Like he's talking about someone. ...Well, I don't know who he's talking about, and I don't care, but if he hurts Yorii or Elliot, he won't have to worry about his precious "darling" anymore! Cause he'll never see her again!"

Max Soukoku

"...Is it weird to say that I see a lot of myself in this young man? He's so quiet that you sometimes forget he exists. ...At least until you hear that he sent two or three guys to the hospital because they called themselves bullying him, but wound up learning the hard way to not judge someone based on appearances alone. You'd think after the first few times, people would get the hint, but stupidity can be infectious sometimes."

...

"Besides that, I get the same sense from 'Rocker Boy' that I do this kid. Both of them smell like blood. And this kid, even more so! But as long as I don't smell Elliot or Yorii's blood on him, he's safe. But the moment I do, we'll see just how fearsome he truly is!"

Kaiji Sano

"A lot of the girls at school are big fans of this guy. ...And some of the guys too. Me, I'll admit, he's attractive, but I don't know why people go nuts over him dressing up as the opposite sex. He's not the first to do that, but I guess there's something about how he dresses that attracts people. I don't know enough the fashion industry to make a guess, though."

...

"And just like his two buddies, this guy smells like blood too, though I only smelled two types of blood: his and one other's. A female's, I think. Still, that doesn't exactly fill me with fuckin' ease. He may not be a killer like his buddies, but this guy has spilled blood before. For his sake, those two blood types had better be the only ones I spell on him."

Lovesick

"These three men... they seemingly have nothing in common with each other. I have to wonder how exactly they met one another. ...Is it possible they all adopted each other like we did? If so, I wonder what the circumstances were that caused them to get to know each other?"

...

"These guys may not have anything in common, at first glance. But there is one thing they share: they're all murderers. Oh, I know I don't really have room to talk, but unlike me who has to kill to survive, these three kill simply for sport and enjoy it. Well like I said before, they can do whatever the hell they want. But if they come do anything to harm either of my brothers, I'll show them what true murder looks like."

[taito-division]

Contestants/Couples (1/2)

Of course, we couldn’t forget about the main event! We’ve searched high and low throughout Japan to find the very best, the crème de la crème of each and every Division had to offer and we certainly weren’t disappointed with the line up we have and something tells us you aren’t going to be either once we reveal who our couples for this competition are. The couples and contestants for the 2024 Mr. and Mrs. HypMic Couples' Pageant are...

1. "Introducing first, both hailing from the sunny beaches of Los Angeles, California, they are widely-known as America's Sweethearts, who have been together longer they any couple in this competition. Perhaps their long time dating one another will give them a heads-up against the rest of the competition. Give it up for the American Pretty Boy, himself, Ace "MC Patriot" Douglas, and his popular and highly-stunning model of a girlfriend, Evelyn "SPIRIT" Rose, from Okinawa!"

America's Sweethearts

2. "Introducing next, they are two of the most artistic individuals Japan has ever seen. While one is making herself known online and in art galleries as an established painter, the other is mesmerizing both men and women of the world with his enchanting voice. Please welcome highly-talented artist, Kureha "Eclipse" Koizumi of Saitama, and her partner, the first-ever winner of the Mr. HypMic Pageant, the most-talented and sexiest man in 2023 and highly-acclaimed rock star, Ren "Vox" Nakashima of Kobe!"

The Dark Canvas

3. "This next couple is, without a doubt, perhaps the most promiscuous pairing in this competition. Needless to say, they've got a number of winnings under their belts, so to speak. Will their experience and success rate be enough to have them win? We'll see! Please welcome Japan's Self-Proclaimed "Strongman", Karada "Nike" Kessaku of Aoyama, and the Goddess of Beauty, herself, Lola "Aphrodite" Takahashi of Saitama!"

The Deities

4. "This next partnership is perhaps the scariest pairing we have in this competition. Despite their young ages, these two young men aren't afraid to get their hands dirty and paint the environment red if they have to, or if the need should strike them. If I were you, I'd best proceed with caution around them! But who knows? Perhaps their infamy will somehow resonate with the fans. We'll see! In any case, put your hands together for the popular Lolita model, Kaiji "Jinx" Sano of Kobe, and his partner, Japan's Most Notorious Serial Killer, Touya "MC Darling" Kisaragi of Katsushika!"

...Seriously, who thought it was a good idea to let these two in this?

Angelic Facade

5. "These next contestants are perhaps living proof that 'money is equivalent to success!' Standing at the top of Japan's hierarchy because of their wealth and status, this power couple, who is due to be wed in just a few short months, might I add, will stop at nothing to trample over their competition, no matter who or what they may be! So give them the respect they deserve and welcome, none other than, the heir to his prestigious family, Tomi "High Class" Chōten of Aoyama, and the CEO of one of the most powerful conglomerates in Japan today, Miho "Iron Maiden" Kobayashi of Shinagawa!"

The "Power Couple"

Let's wish these lovely contestants the best of luck!
