YOASOBI「アイドル」 from OnK S1, performed by Ai Hoshino.
Honestly, I don't know any other choices besides this. I’m not really someone who watches a lot of idol shows or anime either, so for me, "Idol" is the only real option here. But it’s not just a default pick or anything. I genuinely love it. Idol captures a unique charm and energy that stands out even among more "serious" genres. The passion, the dreams, the struggles of an idol; all of it makes it a strong and worthy participant.

| Sorry, I'm getting a bit confused by the Extra Stage rules 😅 Not sure if I'm nominating a song that represents one of the original nominations the best way possible or if I should just pick my favorite (solo) idol song... What I understand is that it's not directly linked to the nominations from the previous rounds and everyone can nominate songs no matter if the idol was part of the original nominations or not (but no group songs). And the goal of the extra stage will be to decide which song is the best? Am I understanding it correctly? @Shizuna |

@nirererin we can switch our Idols? I thought your one was Kana.
| @WaterMage In your post mention who performs the song; if it's the idol you nominated for the main event, I'll add it to the event cards I'll make after the voting is over (it won't affect the final rankings though). Since Shizuna said that the final ranking doesn’t matter, there isn't any rule against having multiple songs from the same idol. I nominated Ai’s "Idol," and you nominated Ai’s "StarTRain"; they are different songs, and the only common point is the character, which shouldn’t be an issue. An idol can perform multiple songs, and each song should be allowed to compete individually. That’s why switching our nominated idols isn’t necessary. This round is about the songs, the characters are just a presentation, and as long as the songs are different, it should be fine. |

| @nirererin if keeping your orginal Idol is not necessary I will rather choose Ruby one. Because tbh there isn't any Ai idol song out there except your one. I am changing it. Also I think there is Rie Takahashi version of Idol that suits Ai better imo. |

| @Vaturna We are going to vote for the best song, yes. Group songs are OK. Anyone can nominate anyone's song, but for it to get featured on the event ending cards it should correlate with the idol you nominated for the first event. |

| Egao no Unison - Sakura Uta (Kimi to Idol Precure) |
 |
| I nominate BIBBIDIBA - Hoshimachi Suisei Its an energetic groovy tune that shows off the headstrong nature of Suisei that I feel serves as a metaphor of her climb from a failed idol to a virtual idol to a well respected musician, who peers look up to. An idol has a story behind it and Suisei's story is simply very interesting and one where I find it is easy to root for her. |

| For Nico Yazawa, I nominate Psychic Fire by BiBi, μ's subunit formed by Nico, Maki and Eri. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rPvO2PZB2Sk This is my 2nd favorite BiBi's song. My favorite is Sakkaku Crossroads, but I wanted to choose one with Nico as the center. The video linked is a fan-made AMV, which is the only 3D animated video with Psychic Fire's full version. |

Reply to Barrycade
@Shizuna hey does group song count by the idol i've nominated for it to be featured in the event card or its strictly for solo songs only?
| @Barrycade Yes as long as she's participating in that group song. |
| idol: Priscilla S. Asagiri song: "Konya wa Hurricane" She performs it, but the video, apart from her performance, singing and the song itself, also has other stuff related to the plot of Bubblegum Crisis happening on screen. I hope it's not a problem. ;p https://youtu.be/an_0IIRDlc4 |
| I nominate Rosette Nebula performed by Bell Rose [VA: Haruka Tomatsu; Maaya Uchida; Saori Gotou] Full song https://youtu.be/tuE1pwcyh48?si=7iispKSAiMGmElup Though I had an entirely different song in mind but maybe next time ig |

| Since I nominated Tomori, MyGO!!!!! - Utakotoba https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJ-OebTVyvk |
| Selecting only one song for this is pretty fucking hard. I don't want to leave my Luminas girls out one more time, but I also want to add another very iconic song and scene from the entire series. Maybe keep the first vid as a music video and keep the other for the event card (?), or select one at random, or whatever works for you.

| There are so many songs that it wanted to list, it took me way too long to narrow it down to a single nomination^^ I nominate Believe again performed by Saint Snow (Kazuno Sarah & Kazuno Leah) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zr7I5l-XPz8 (I posted the music only version, but I can also recommend watching the dance performance from the Love Live! Sunshine!! Movie: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S6KlyZL0j_U) |
| |
| I nominate "Colorful Moonlight" ("カラフルムーンライト") by Kano Yamanouchi (She is the idol I nominated as well). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9W1Hmo4wxe8 I couldn't find any mv, in which she sings this song, so the link is the scene from the anime. |

| I listened to the full version of Route Venus to stay fair: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hp-LmGp4uA4 Some videos don't have translated lyrics or even lyrics at all, I can only encourage people to go read them while listening. That really felt like a mini-concert with top quality songs, thanks @Shizuna for organizing this! I would give 8-10 to all of them but that wouldn't really reflect my ranking so I'll go with 10, 9, .. , 2 Extra Stage Part I~★ 私たちは未来の花 = 7 Dakishimeru Hanabira = 2 アイドル = 6 POP IN 2 = 8 Mabataki no Gosenfu = 9 Route Venus = 4 Firebird = 10 Tot Musica = 5 STAR☆T☆RAIN = 3 Comments No surprise on Firebird. Heavy Rotation from AKB0048 was my favorite song for a very long time, before it was dethroned. I didn't know about 私たちは未来の花. That kinda makes Umi more beautiful than her anime/game counterpart. (original rating 8) Tot Musica is very original both on rhythm and on the lyrics takes (incredibly hard kanjis with nordic letters). A bit too much to make it my favorite but it's a great change of pace from the other songs. (original rating 7) I think STAR☆T☆RAIN is low because the lyrics are simple. And also because has just burnt out my ears because the disk also has the SOLO versions for each 3 of them ... (original rating 7) I think HasunoSora has better songs than Dakishimeru Hanabira, but it's an ok one. (original rating 6) |

Just because I see Ai in the music video doesn't imply it's actually her doing the singing, it's just the theme song for the show. I would have considered the cover version https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FEktA0Nmnjs, not the one by Yoasobi) POP IN 2 - 4 Mabataki no Gosenfu - 5 Route Venus - 2 Firebird - 6 Tot Musica - 10 STAR☆T☆RAIN - 6 Splitting the voting into 3 parts is probably a good idea. Thanks again for organizing the event ❤️ Mathematically it would be more efficient if I only vote with 1 and 10 to maximize how much impact I have on the final results, but the way I'm doing it is just more fun. |
