May 18th, 2024 - Arcaea, ProSeka, ONGEKI, CHUNITHM NEW PLUS, DanceEvolution, DDR A20 PLUS

FINALLY!!! THE TIME HAS COME!!! ANIME IMPULSE TIME W/ MY FRIEND!!!!!!!

as it turns out, we may or may not have arrived 2 hours before opening time, so we may or may not have had to wait in line for 2 hours until the gates opened and we were free to wreak havoc. but in the meantime, i tried to grind out some of my arcaea stamina and finally tried out Party Vinyl BYD-10, which - to my surprise - was actually a really fun and good chart??? ik this one is really widely hated so i was surprised by how good it actually was, no idea where the hate comes from now. loved it so much that i ended up getting an EX after a few tries!!! (same with Quon BYD-10, which i also played for the first time and ALSO really liked!!

here's me briefly using my friend's hands as a phone stand and clearing the funny hold note song while i was at it LOL

but eventually, after waiting a full 2 hours in line and being hyped up by the staff there, the floodgates opened and we were allowed to dive right into the chaos... of ANIME IMPULSE!!!! while my friend wanted to go straight to the VA signings, i had my eyes set on playing one game in particular for the first time...

you may have noticed the title of a unique game that hasn't appeared on this account so far. why's that? originally i meant to play it at sakuracon earlier this year, but i was drawn too much to chunithm and other games to pay it any mind (and also the lines for the cab were too long). but finally, being one of the first to see the cabs, i was able to jump right on it and, for the very first time in 2dkaps ddr history... play O.N.G.E.K.I.!!!!! ...of course, i kinda sucked at it, but that didn't stop little ol' me!!! (this GP system is so confusing though)

aaaaand that's all!!! (for ongeki, that is)

afterwards, i hopped on chunithm to experience it again in all its beautiful 120hz glory... but i then came to the realization that i was proooobably gonna be stunted by this Hellish glare being casted onto the screens (from all the skybridge windows). yes, what you see on the screen in each score is exactly what i saw while playing. yes, i had to set my field wall to 6 to make it even a slight bit readable, no, it didn't stop me from getting some fucking INSANE scores today like holy SHIT HOW DID I DO ALL THIS

first was just a 990 on a 14, nothing special, cool cool, but then i tried shukusei shinpan on my card for the first time (previously only got to play it in guest mode) and got a really good 995 at first??? followed it up with a 998 or something like that (not pictured) before... at long last... after so many grueling attempts and so much trouble posed by the evil screen glare... it actually happened...

I ACTUALLY GOT IT!!! AFTER SO LONG!!!! SHUKUSEI SHINPAN (MASTER 15) 1,000,155 SS!!!!!!! 15 SS #1!!!! MY FIRST 15 SS EVER!!!! AND IN AOYAGI TOYA COSPLAY!!!! (the score is somehow actually more visible in the selfie because of the glare being lower LMFAO)

BUT THAT'S NOT THE END OF MY SESSION!!! NOT EVEN *CLOSE*!!! THERE'S *WAY* MORE WHERE THAT CAME FROM!!!! examples? why, of course!! 8-EM (Master 14+) 999k into 1.001M SS, followed by a sightread SSS on Inpaqq (Master 13+), and then an almost-SSS+ Full Combo on BlythE (Master 14)!!!

went to the artist alley for a little while with my friend, trying to find stuff to buy but almost coming back empty-handed (though with a few exceptions of purchases since . yaknow .) but once i got back from my spree and went to the arcade with my friend again, we hopped back on danevo and i IMMEDIATELY took the opportunity to sightread and get this really funny AA on Memeshikute Master (pictured)

back to chunithm, where i got the really funny thought of "what if i hit rainbow while i was at this con?" looking through my options and really having nothing better to do (other than spend More money at the artist alley), i gave it a go, intense cloudy glare and all. this gave way to... a lot of really damn good scores, actually! SS on a lot of 14+s that turned out to be 14.9s when i looked them up... it was really surprising to see myself perform at this caliber honestly LOL

oh also, an almost S+ on World Vanquisher (Master 15), a 995k on Contrapasso -inferno- followed by a 999k on it somehow LMFAO (Formerly Master 14+, now Master 15 as of Chunithm New Plus (please get me updated aghh)), a first try 992k S+ on POTENTIAL (Master 15), a sightread 997k S+ on We Gonna Journey (Ultima 14+), a clean SS first try on Viyella's Tears (Master 14+), and then a 985k S on ANU (Master 15)!!!

...whew! that was a lot of grinding and a lot of really good scores. but i'm still not quite at rainbow... ah well, let's take a break anyways with some really glare-filled DDR A20 PLUS!!! ...oh, how i missed you... (but also how i hate this glare of yours)

a brief return to chunithm in a desperate attempt to get as much rating before the end of the day... which was surprisingly soon!!! everything closed at 7 PM, and it wasn't until it was almost too late that i realized... but as i bid farewell to the cabs and went to the artist alley to get one more thing, i got in a few more scores that were just. Insane beyond belief. so there's the SS on Apocalypse ni hangyaku (Master 14+) of course, pretty cool pretty nice upscore, but then.... out of absolutely nowhere and completely unexpected... i got a FULL COMBO ON ELEMENTAL CREATION ULTIMA 14+??? A 14.9??? AND I GOT A FULL COMBO??? HOW??????????? I WAS IN SHOCK WHAT THE HELL

even more than that, i got 15 SS #2 IN THE SAME DAY ON CONTRAPASSO -INFERNO- AFTER JUST A FEW EXTRA TRIES!!!! I WENT *OFF* THIS SESSION AND I'M STILL IN SHOCK . HOW DID I EVEN DO IT

but alas, of course, it was closing time, so i had to head home and give up on my dream to jump from 15.74 to rainbow in a single day... but from all this work, i managed to get up from a measly 15.74 rating from last con to a massive 15.94 that's in the top 100 of the server's rankings??? i'm really excited to see what i can do if given another opportunity, and it looks like i'll have one soon... but for now, i'd like to appreciate this session well done! i'll say it now while i'm writing this in the future, but due to homework and general business i wasn't able to make it to the second day of the con and thus i actually didn't have another chance to get rainbow. but it was far better for my future tbh, and i'll always have another chance for this. thanks for reading!

note: there's a few scores that didn't make it into this post due to the 30 image limit (just two danevo scores) that will instead be included in the post for monday. sorry for the inconvenience!

==- Archive: WELCOME to VIP ROOM -==

NOTE: As of January 2nd, 2025, this post has been replaced with another somewhat more updated pinned post to sort of ring in the new year and start off on a fresh new slate. For archival purposes, this post will be preserved in its original state with the exceptions of some links being fixed. Thanks for sticking with me and reading, and I hope I can make this 2025 year bigger and better than ever!!!

Welcome to the rhythm game scoreposting account of Kaps, the rising jack-of-all-trades-master-of-none! Also going by TopKaps and, most often recently, 2DKaps, this is my public hotspot where I've posted and archived eeeevery score I've gotten over the years! (or, at least scores that I've saved either on my phone, phone's camera, new PC, or Nintendo Switch).

Here in my humble abode, I've documented my near-daily experiences with a ton of such games, and for further ease of access, I've started using tags of my own for these such games to make them easier to view and sort through, in case you're stalking my scores for a tournament match or just looking through my progression!

Listed below are all the tags I use on this account for different games, and listed even further below are all my friend/rival codes/IDs in case you want to compete with me off the account too! If I ever try a new game, new version of a game, or even enter a new year, I'll update the list with its new respective tag and the easiest way to search it!

January 29th, 2024: Unimportant Note Regarding Account Privatizing

Thanks for checking this blog out, feel free to follow if you'd like! Otherwise, enjoy the show!

-> Sub-Pinned Post: Blog Tag Browser!! <-

Hello hello, welcome to the sub-pinned post to my cool and awesome 2025!!! ...sooo why does this exist? Well, I was hard at work yesterday and today editing my massive new intro post for the account, but just as I had finished everything I wanted to add and was about to publish... I started getting errors with publishing or even saving the posts. It was a struggle to figure out the issue and I was smashing my head against my keyboard, but I found out that it was because Tumblr has a secret inline link limit of 100 per post, and any additional links would either disappear or result in an error.

The rhythm game, version, and miscellaneous tags already exceed the 100 link limit, so not even this sub-post was enough to contain them... Thus, I decided to split the main, important, all-encompassing rhythm game tags into the main pinned post, and the more specific/browsable version-specific and miscellaneous tags here so that they're easier to update whenever a new version releases. I apologize for the navigational inconvenience, but hopefully this solution works out best for the both of us! But for now, enjoy the browsing!!!

...Aaand that should be all for now!!! It's rather short when viewing as a complete post sure, but all the hyperlinks and colors definitely bloat up the character count a ton in HTML... Regardless, I hope this alternative post serves well in future-proofing my pinned and making both posts easier to update and potentially decorate further on my end!
