BlackStar ~Theater Starless translation

Season 1 – Episode 8:

Chapter 3– Which side are you on?

(Kasumi, Hari, Kokuyou , MC, Mokuren)

Kasumi- Ah, MC, excuse me~.

MC - Kyaah!

Kasumi- Ah, I'm sorry to have surprised you. I have little presence, so I have a high [chance of surprising people].

Kasumi- Anyway, MC, I have a favour to ask of you.

Kasumi- I wonder if it would be okay if Hari had a tour for today's W's lesson.

Hari- Thank you for your support.

MC- It doesn't matter. But why bother asking?

Kasumi- Well it seemed like Mokuren kicked him out of the lesson the other day.

Kasumi- I think if he is with you, it'll probably be fine.

Hari- I apologies for the inconvenience.

MC - Ah, yes. Well, shall we go?

Kokuyou - That's enough, Mokuren.

Mokuren- That's my line. You're the one who is doing whatever he wants.

Kasumi- What's wrong, you two? Was there an argument or something?

Mokuren- Kokuyou isn't doing it as planned. He is too forceful.

Kokuyou - Get it together. No matter how you think about the scene, it is better for me to come forward. [this is for a dance layout].

Kokuyou - One more time, Akira, Sin, Kasumi, come too, we will do it at Takami's place.

Kasumi- Ah~, things are getting heated up, so I would like to watch from around the corner.

Kokuyou - Hurry up, Kasumi!

Kasumi- Yes, yes, I'm coming now.

MC- It's kind of difficult....

Hari- Isn't it interesting? Let's watch quietly.

Kokuyou - Mokuren, are you kidding me? I told you 'I'd match you'.

Mokuren- You say strange things. The other day, I told you not to change the arrangement.

Kokuyou - That time was then, now is now. Besides, who is the one at the top?

Mokuren- Interesting. I'll break the top guy's nose right here and now.

Kokuyou - That's great, come on over.

Kasumi- Ahh~~~ Both of you calm down! Don't fight!

I have to stop this!

Hari- Do you want to stop it? If so, then I will help you.

MC - Eh? You will?

Hari- Both of you, please keep your distance. If I intervene, I will mutually hit both of you.

Kokuyou - Ah? Who the heck are you? MC, is this a joke?

MC- Eh, oh, well, well! I guess, that's what it feels like!

Mokuren- Shut up, Bonbon [This is referring to Hari]. This has nothing to do with you.

Hari- Emotional outbursts will not solve the problem. Why not ask for opinions from an outside perspective?

Kasumi- That's right! The opinions of those who have seen this performances are valuable~.

Kokuyou - ........Ahh, you're a groupie of Mokuren.

Hari- To correct you, I am not a Mokuren fanboy. I am a person who wishes to become his apprentice.

Kokuyou - That's the same thing. It's a waste of time to be lectured by Mokuren's ally.

Hari- Is that so? I agree with Kokuyou's plan. If the center is one step ahead, the impact increases.

Mokuren- What did you say?

Hari- Don't get mad, Mokuren. I just thought about it with logic.

Hari- Right now, for the current W, Kokuyou's plan is more appealing. That's Kokuyou's speciality.

Hari- If the center was Mokuren or Takami, I would have preferred Mokuren's plan.

Kasumi- I see~ that's true. You're looking at it in detail, as expected.

Kokuyou - I don't get it, I think Mokuren's fanboy is a bit confusing.

Hari- This is the most 'correct' now. Logic is everything.

Mokuren- ........Isn't that interesting.

Hari- Besides I'm not a fanboy of Mokuren, I want to be his disciple.

Kasumi- Well, well, let's resume the lesson! Please take your time to observe the both of them!

MC- Umm...thank you very much. For stalling the two of them from arguing.

Hari- No, it's nothing. It's just something like a silly, stubborn rivalry.

Hari- If you take a bird's eye view of things with objectivity, everyone will understand.

Hari- Otherwise people will not move. I will definetely become a person who can move people.

MC - That's amazing, Hari. I feel like you're in control of yourself.

Hari- ....It's normal.

To be continued.....

DISCLAIMER – This is not an accurate translation! Please do not steal. Please let me know of any corrections and what I translated wrong- I may have just written what I think works best, but if you think otherwise, let me know. :)

thank you so much for this. your guides are so helpful

5th Anniversary Songs Guide

It's been so long since I wrote a Starless guide. This one will be slightly long, so put your teams on auto-rehearse and grab a cup of coffee, tea, or water.

The guide contains parts that can be used for any song, as they contain general information and tips for getting high scores.

Event Points vs. High Score

Tips to Increase Score

Brief Housekeeping

I get many messages asking me how my scores are this high. I have played the game since the day it was released, and I do spend money on the gatchas. If you are a beginner, don't be disheartened and keep increasing your heroine level by rehearsing.

Just a quick reminder, my heroine level is almost 300 (THIS IS not Sparta, lol.) Also, keep in mind that skill activation/gauge fill time will vary depending on your heroine level.

If you are at a lower heroine level, remember to use skills with a longer time (ex, 15 seconds instead of 8 seconds) because stacking can be difficult if your gauge doesn't fill fast enough.

The support card I used is 40% K gauge.

Event Points vs. High Score

People like seeing high scores, but remember, your goal is to get high event points (EP). The only way for you to do that is to use event cards. So modify your team to use as many event cards as possible, but keep in mind that using too many event cards will cause a low score, which will give you less EP. Yes, I just said to do something and then not do it. 😂

What do I mean?

The team below has 4 event cards, but the score is not that high (comparatively), but the EP is decent.

Now, if I replace Gui's event card with Ginsei's 5* card, I get more EP and a higher score.

Why? Gui's skill is gauge fill, but Ginsei's skill is much more powerful. Gui's skill is useless for me because I can stack all the skills without needing a gauge fill card.

Now, if I replace Kokuyou's event card with Gui's 5* star, the score is higher, but the EP goes down A LOT.

This is the reason why you want to use EP cards when you can, even if it doesn't give you the highest score.

How do you figure out the perfect balance?

Unfortunately, you will have to experiment with that because the balance will depend on your heroine level and team.

Gauge Fill

Regardless of which heroine level you are on, you will notice that the gauge will fill faster in song event songs and slower on others. No, it's not your team...Donuts has purposely slowed the gauge fill.

Fastest event song to slowest gauge fill: K > C > B > W=P

Yes, W and P's gauge fills are painfully slow, even with 40% gauge up support. 😭

Like...seriously...the score and EP difference between fast filling gauge vs. slow gauge. Team W...WHY!? 😭😭😭 I used the same team for both songs.

Choosing Team for Anniversary Songs

K : Bomb skill works best, short skills should stack (depends on heroine level)

P : Slow gauge so use gauge fill card, gauge support, and avoid using short skills

C: Bomb skill works well, short skills don't stack as well (compared to Team K) so try using gauge fill card

W: odd setup for bomb so avoid, slow gauge so use gauge fill card, avoid short skills

B: Bomb skill works well

Songs Overview

✨= gives (me) highest score with long notes skill

Team K

Normal - bomb skill, bomb notes around 1/3 and 2/3 of the songs ⭐

Hard - bomb skill

Adv - bomb skill

Team P

Normal - long notes skill, long note at the end ✨

Hard - long notes skill, long note at the end

Adv - bomb team, possible to bomb notes more than once but focus on stacking then bombing near 3/4 of the song ⭐

Team C

Normal - very odd beatmap...for both bomb and long note skill

Hard - bomb team

Adv - bomb team, focus on stacking and bombing after halfway through ⭐

Team W

Tips to Increase Score

For bomb team comp, you want to use a combination of combo up, lane score up, p-lock, center color steal, and bomb skill (of course, lol).

For long note team comp, you want to use a combination of lane score up, center color steal, long note score up, and p-lock.

Get rehearsal levels to 100.

Pay attention to skills and team member placement. For example, Ginsei's 5* card is only for Team K members.

Paired with Kokuyou's bomb skill for the center and outer lanes, it makes more sense for me to place Team K members in the center and outer lanes. If I move the team around, you can see how that changes my scores.

You may say that the difference isn't that big, but let's do the math. The difference between my highest EP and above is 236,808. This means for every 10 plays (2x), I will lose 2.37 million. So, pay attention to team member placement.

Higher heroine level = faster gauge fill (every 5 levels, I believe) & higher score

Use 40% team gauge support. A little warning about this, the support card might not work with lower heroine levels. Experiment with the Da/Ac/Vo and 40% support cards. Generally, if you use 40% support, you want 3 or more team members from that team; meaning, if you use 40% W support, you want 3 or more W members. Some compositions work with just 2 members, but the more, the faster the gauge fills.

If you have bloomed event Menou, use him instead of Qu's off day card. If you have bloomed event Aogiri, use him instead of Takami's off day card.

Low heroine level - use longer skill cards, especially if the short skills don't stack.

Higher heroine level - experiment with powerful skills, even if they are short (ex, use Menou's event card instead of Aogiri's.)

----------------

Author's Note:

Some might look through this guide and say, "Hey, where are the team compositions and skills you used?"

I didn't include the skill comp because every time I do, I get responses/messages saying that I use paid cards and have a strong team, so of course, I will get a high score. Then, I get messages from people feeling discouraged because they can't mimic my scores. So, I thought it would be more helpful if I paved a pathway for you to figure out your own team and skill comp.

If I get questions or requests to add more things to this guide, I will keep updating it. Also, I will put [Updated] in title.

Blackstar - 5th anni - team K's story - summary

Warning: I use GT to read the stories

Summary:

We see once again that flashback of kei and saki talking about black card.

Kei greeted saki at starless but he was not acting as usual around her. Noticing he could make her uncomfortable, he asked Yakou to guide saki to her table.

But he told saki that he thinks she will soon get the answers she seeks. He also said he wants her to be happy.

Yakuo seemed a bit perplexed that kei didn't guide her himself but he said nothing.

During k's rehearsal, it was said gui is not performing this time. Kei said he is an under.

There was a flashback showing that gui was absent-minded during one of their meetings/rehearsals (I don't know when that happened). Gui said he was thinking about kei and his master. Kei decided he was not going to be in the starting lineup.

Kei seems very focused and strict while giving orders to the other members during rehearsal.

the tops - except for mizuki - were organizing and cleaning the entrance.

Kokuyou asked kei about gui situation. Kei said he was not in the starting line because he was not focused during rehearsals. Rindou agreed with Kei saying that the stage is everything and people need to work hard in rehearsals.

Kokuyou teased rindou saying that he looked like kei talking about the stage and the show.

Mokuren briefly talked to kei asking when C can perform again.

After that part with the tops, ginsei was reading the script (again) and sotetsu and yoshino were talking to him. They questioned where that script came from and one of them said maybe it was from kei.

Ginsei also said that it looked like something akito would write.

They talked about this year's anniversary theme and one of them mentioned that the rehearsals were very strict but it was necessary to make a good show

When team k was going to rehearsal again, kei was not there yet. Ginsei asked gui to play the center - kei's role - and so he did.

Gui did a great job. They were all shocked. It seems he memorized all the member's roles. Kei watched from afar. He said gui's performance was not bad. And even his position as center could be at risk if he didn't fight for it.

Sotetsu liked to hear that any member could take another's position as long as they could convince the other members they deserved it. Yakou seemed a bit worried (idk if it was because gui could be the center or that they could lose their role).

the last part, sotetsu and yoshino were talking to saki asking her if she liked the show. Yoshino also asked if she wanted to talk to kei, but she said it was not necessary. Gui escorted her home and said he would be on stage the next time they perform.
