Yukiho thread, if you folks can dig it.
No.303
What do you like about Yukiho, anon? Please explain, because I don't get her appeal.
No.307
>>303I like her prude, shy girl appeal. I think it's extra-cute.
No.309
>>303I think Yukiho's appeal is that she's shy and a easily scared. She's the kind of girl you want to coach into being stronger, you know?
I guess being "bland" is also a point? She doesn't really stand out when compared to the other girls, so she kinda comes off as the cast's underdog
No.310
>>303Yukiho might start off tiny and scared but she keeps fighting through her fear and doubt. With every battle her companions fight she fights two, growing stronger and stronger until she bursts through the ground at unimaginable speed, rising above all and shooting into space as the top idol.
No.311
So is Yukiho's digging ability more her arm strength or her shovel/

No.313
>>303Yukiho and Chihaya have similar plots but reversed. Yukiho learns to rely less on others while Chihaya learns to rely more on others. Actually now that I think about it Chihaya doesn't really have low self esteem as she has no doubts in her abilities, she is just prone to thinking things over a lot. Anyways I think seeing a shy character become more confident has a similar appeal to Chihaya overcoming her problems in her route. Also people who have or had low self esteem can probably relate to her issues as well. I'm not exactly the best person to ask about it but I tried.
No.324
>>303She's a long-term investment. I don't mean that in the possessive sense, of course, but she IS one of the late-blooming idols, and it shows. She does start off as a crybaby, and she doesn't seem to deal well with stress or pressure, but that's all part of the experience. It's not just being able to help her overcome her low self-confidence and become more confident, it's seeing her change along the way.
It certainly helps that she's naturally kind and considerate despite her flaws, so she has everything to gain from growing over time. She's also very trusting and a little scatterbrained at times, which adds to her cuteness. I personally don't think she needs to be more eccentric, honestly, because she seems more like an actual person this way, and I really enjoy that.
>>311They never really tell. Considering the intensity and speed of her digging, you'd figure she'd have some decent muscle on her arms by now.

No.551
>>548I remember him being responsible for the character database that /aa2g/ uses. Dude could still be poking around /jp/, too; hell, IIRC, the SP project originated on /jp/.
No.552
>>551Yep it started on /jp/. It got burst during the anime which lasted until late 2012 then went to a halt around the same time that 765 posters became less prominent. There's been some people claiming they'd help since but nothing major like another route being released has happened.
If the other two missing moon routes were to be worked on and the text insert preview working again I wouldn't mind helping out and would want to redo Chihaya's route for the final release as I think there were a lot of translation errors left in last time. Although how minor that is probably depends on the person. There was a lot of misunderstanding the context or just beginner mistakes made by the original translator.
No.559
>>552Amateur translations are typically one draft and out. Real project management would be too much effort for an anonymous release but if you wanted to redo it and tighten the translation up, try to find a halfway decent editor. They make all the difference.

>>559>>560I think the translation effort was more organized before, since I kinda recall that Lazor was the one who made the patcher program in the first place. I don't know if I'm right, but it seems that far more organization was needed to maintain all of Perfect Sun (Hibiki becoming Echo notwithstanding). Even Yukiho's was a fluke, and I think Iori's was the last real effort.
Though I came kinda late into iM@S, so I was only around for the last three finished routes. We can only hope another dedicated person comes around for Azusa, Ritsuko, or the twins at this rate.
No.562
>>542Is it? For the other idols I was okay with good lessons and messing up the morning greeting, getting second in auditions.
No.565
>>561I was under the impression that the patcher and the modified Perfect Sun ISO were Anonymous of Russian Federation's work, and lazorgunn was mainly responsible for bringing attention to the project in the general.
I suppose the best way to try and get people interested again is to try and get the text preview pages working again, and then to see if people in the im@s community can lend their talents to the project.

No.823
>>822I guess I should have said I've never really done smaller conversions (or any, really) until WebMs became popular, so I never learned how to make GIFs or APNGs. I'm also not sure if the upload screwed things up since it posted duplicates for some reason, but I doubt it.

No.896
Yukiho's latest DLC episodes are cute. She gets worried about a fan letter and starts feeling down about herself, but she's surprisingly stronger than she would typically be, and she even takes the time to tell her fans at a live that they help her fight on.
Here's some snippets of her new extend.

No.910
>>896Summary:
After fes, producer finds Yukiho squatting down in a dressing room. She tells him she feels very sad and then cries. Producer asks why and she gives him a fan letter which reads:
"I quit being Yukiho's fan. Everyone is saying that it's a nice song, but I don't think so. I don't receive any courage."
She says it's painful, but she will come to grips with the message. Producer notes that she has become stronger, but she refuses and says she simply thinks that because she knows she's not good enough, she needs to try harder.
Before audition, she looks worried and sighs, but she is aware that she can't give people courage if she herself feels down. Afterwards, she says she's kind of glad that she doesn't have to perform in front of her fans, thus not having to worry about her fans not getting courage from her. Producer thinks it's difficult to make an impact of every single listener, but she insists that even if she can't give everyone courage, at least she doesn't want to forget her intention. Producer then affirms that her thought alone is enough, and she should not forget why the song was composed and why it's here. She realizes that even though her pain when it doesn't deliver still remains and she doesn't know well how to do so, she should keep believing on her wish.
Next up is her big solo live. After live, she still stays on the stage. She announces she wants to tell her fans something, but only "thank you for today" comes out of her mouth. Behind the stage, she tells producer that her intention might not reach her fans by only singing, so in order to get closer she wants to speak up, yet she couldn't express it well. Producer encourages her to go back on stage and try again.
"Everyone, please listen to my thought… and my wish. I'm standing on the stage now. Holding a mic, standing alone on the stage. But actually, I'm not alone. There are many people supporting me… friends, staff, and also my fans. I'm standing on the stage with lots of courage, really. Even so, I… I…"
When she seems choked up with words and is about to cry, one of her fans shouts "Do you best! Yukiho-chan! Do you besttt!". She then continues.
"Thank you so much!! Now I got a huge amount of courage from everyone once again. I, too, want to give this back to you. When it's painful, sorrowful, or when you can't move on, I want to give everyone a bit of courage with my song. I want to push you forward. I want to support everyone. This is my feeling, my wish I put into this song. So, please let me sing it again. A song filled with all my feelings, Ano Hi no Namida."
Before her next live, producer comments that since her previous live, she has been able to sing with a smile from the bottom of her heart. She says it's all thanks to her fans, and says that lately there are more people cheering for her. Producer mentions about "Yukiho group" and the spreading of fan's activity thanks to the internet. Moreover, he heard from them that Yukiho and her fans are supporting each other and that their and her activities become one, which makes her happy.
After live, producer finds her crying in a dressing room again, but now with a tear of joy. She hands him a fan letter.
"I think I will stop quitting being your fan. I wanted to go to your live for the last time, but it remained deep in my heart. I got a heartbreak and was in a fight with my friend, so the world becomes a miserable place. Even listening to a song from my dearest Yukiho-san pains me. Nevertheless, I wanted to go see you one more time before I quit. During that live, Yukiho-san seemed to be choked up with words and distressing, so I shouted without thinking. "Yukiho-san, do you best". Then people around me shouted out one after another. Your smile back then is unforgettable. So is your word, telling me that you want to give people courage. Somehow, It seemed that you said it for me. I was so happy that I cried. I sang along with your last song in tears. I got encouraged by Yukiho-san to move forward once again. To me, Yukiho-san is… well…"
Seeing her face turns red, producer takes the letter from her and continues reading.
".. an angel. A goddess. From now on until the end of my life, I'll cheer you on as your fan!"
She is happy that someone is able to move on because of her song. To give people courage like this, even a bit, she'll continue singing from now on while staying close to her fans.
Yukiho's smile is so bright that it could thaw, shining like a diamond. It reminds me of another light. I am looking forward to meeting again with Yukiho, to see this brilliance of gold.
