Hello, everyone; it's me again. Once again, as some of you know (which might now be everyone on this wiki! *laughs*), I have been (and still determined to be) a dedicated synopsis writer for the Aikatsu! anime adaption episodes, which yes, includes Aikatsu Stars! on the anime discussion board at the GameFAQs' forums area. I enjoy every single minute of writing the synopses for each episode as we wait for the TLs for them to get posted.
First, to still start this on a positive note, I'm curious to know if I'm not the only one who does this kind of thing on the respective anime forums that you all go to. I'm sure that we all can agree that anime shows like this definitely deserve this treatment because it's just that good and the target audience is obviously youngsters (especially girls). Granted, this anime itself has something for all age groups/both genders, but the "target audience" factor still stands.
Second, as this is also the reason I'm writing this - as some of you (or all) are now aware, the TLs for the Aikatsu Stars!, season 2 premiere episode (episode 51, of course) got posted a few hours ago. Sadly, I only got word about this when I woke up to check the morning news shows - upon noticing it, I rushed to the respective forum I go to in hopes I can put a "placeholder" so that I can get right to work on writing that synopsis itself, only to learn that my "nemesis" struck again (twice in a row now; they did this to me on the Aikatsu Stars! season 1 finale episode as well!) crushing my attempts to post a "positive start" to this new season of the Aikatsu Stars! anime. This has infuriated me to no end, because as the saying goes, "how you start the season determines how you finish it". And that "person" in question was determined to start it on that board, all right, but in the wrong way (because he hopes the other viewers would have the same... perspective... that he does; but news flash, I don't); I find this definitely unacceptable.
Oh, my apologies if this somewhat turned into a rant, but yeah... I'm just curious to know if I'm not the only one who's into writing/reading synopses for anime shows targeted for youngsters like this one. On another note, but still related to this - if you're also a member of the GameFAQs forums who's also into the Aikatsu! franchise (in the right way, obviously), let me know so I can discuss further with you folks on the respective walls, because we definitely need to band together and show our enthusiasm for this new season of Aikatsu Stars! (and the Aikatsu! franchise as a whole). I still have to say that because of the "recent events" against me at the other board, I'm also considering my options right now because with the highest respects I just can not sit down and let this "nemesis" ruin my looking forward to this second season of Aikatsu Stars! with his "corruption". His gaining the upper hand twice on me on two "major episodes" in a row is enough to have me draw the line at this point. (However, I do not suggest "retaliating" against him because that would be overkill; but I know we all here agree that we can't let our legitimate discussion of the anime episodes here for Aikatsu Stars! or the entire Aikatsu! franchise fall to this "corruption".)
I'd have more to say, but then I'd really get off topic on this blog entry. Anyway, I gotta go - hope to hear from you all here shortly. I'm out, all!
