aikatsu on parade episode 10 spoilers (thank you aikatsu)

wtf the ep title was aikatsu top gun..... I thought I’d misheard it but it was that..... weird

holy CRAP this ep is literally a lineup of all my favs other than Yurika and Ako and Koharu.... intense...... 

so Raki’s not a kuroko, she’s impersonating one of Karen’s ninjas to sneak in. or.... try to. how dastardly

who are all these little girls with cute red riding hood uniforms!! oh, they’re from Karen’s schools. god I didn’t know it until now but this is the childhood I wanted..... also Elza being nice to children is so.... wow. cute

AHHH this kid is a little mini-Mirai!! same ribbons!! same hairstyle as younger Mirai!! CUTE!!

A Nice to Meet You is a great song that I love but like every JLR song brings back the kagayaki no jewel trauma just a little bit. LMT had so few appearances in it.....

Raki having not been thrown out means that Karen’s aware of her being there and is approving it... right?

Karen’s other pets are all named after sweets but the orca is named... Kyle

with the power of children’s cheering, Raki suddenly becomes an expert orca trainer. just like a hero show

Hime-senpai..... the only one of the idols cheering like the kids at the orca show... this is why I love her

apparently Raki actually signed up to help, and isn’t trespassing. whew. but it seems like Mizuki was the one to tell her about the party? why? they barely interacted in the last ep.

AHHH but it looks like they’re about to!! of course Raki’s first time really talking to Mizuki would be the two of them meeting under the moonlight... how magical!! ohhh man I’ve actually really been looking forward to this interaction bc Aira Rin, Raki’s seiyuu, said in an interview that back when she was a kid watching oldkatsu, her fav idol was Mizuki!! so she was really hoping that Raki and Mizuki would get to interact sometime... oh wow I’m so happy for her!! I hope this is good 💖

it was... good. ahhh

Love Me Tear’s perfectly synchronized laugh..... yes.... excellent

Hime-senpai’s ‘I’m sorry she does this all the time’ face here as Elza challenges Karen to prove her worth...... they’re gfs

god I forgot how gorgeous tsuyoku yashashiku utsukushiku was... (bc Karen got hardly any chances to perform it in kagayaki no jewel!! sigh)

so this multi-school spanning fes LMT thought up is the New World event in the game. good to know. also love this shot of everyone in the meeting while Elza’s just like >:)

she can’t look normal for a second 

oh my god Haruka☆Ruka’s still alive AND still in the S4

including a performance in the Fes announcement... Mizuki saying ‘well I’ve got the perfect song!’... is Take Me Higher appearing this week?! so soon! but there has been a musical montage, clearly there was all sorts of time for them to bond or whatever

the audience shot in addition to all the weird celebrities shows girls that are visibly older than usual. so it’s canon that all of these top 7 are most popular with adults! nice. as an adult I always get excited when the existence of adults that aren’t parents or teachers is acknowledged by my idol animes lmao

also speaking of adults and people who can’t look normal for a gd second

Hikaru........ (also Star Harmony really doesn’t have a headmaster does it.....)

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH 🔥🔥🔥

oh my god..... I love all of them and especially Hibiki so much..... what a great song......... thank you aikatsu. thank you

ooooh it seems like the whole New World Fes will be all about new idol combos?! so it seems like even more crossovers are coming up... can’t wait.....

one last “PERFECT!” from Elza in the aikatsu aphorism. nice

there’s a lot in the preview for next wk, but notably Dream Academy!! my fav school!! looks like Yume and Akari have started training together too.

hey. hey. so why was the title of this ep top gun
