Sorry for lots of text.

It's only episode 2, I know, it's early days. First impressions are important though.

Also, and this is the big one, I'd like some reassurance that people in the Friends universe aren't panicking about Aine, Mio and Raki being missing. I'm assuming they'll return and very little time has passed, but it's a concern.

1) where have the transformation sequences gone? We heard the music from Friends briefly in episode 1 in the background.
2) three performances in a single episode? This is after two in episode 1. I am worried On Parade will be a "best of" and not do much story.
3) The travel between worlds hasn't been brought up since arriving except for a brief "I'm worried we can't get back" from Mio.

I have many more but not enough room.

Watched the latest Aikatsu On Parade episode on the train home 👌

To all my friends in Japan, please stay safe during the typhoon.

Aikatsu on Parade episode 1 was great. I'm not a big fan of Raki, but I'm sure I'll warm to her the same way I did with Aine after her debut.

There's too many things on Booth I want to order, but I'm very overdrawn after my holiday so I need to resist >_<

I'm like a month behind on watching Aikatsu Friends due to various reasons. Probably gonna watch a lot of them in a row tomorrow.

Rather jetlagged and already missing Japan...

Time to prepare for my radio show!

Next time I go to Japan, I hope to explore the other islands, like Kyushu or Hokkaido.

Thank you everyone for guiding and reacting to my Japan adventures. i'll be back in Japan one day soon hopefully. For now, the journey across England to get home and then sleep.

‪Arrived back in the UK!‬

Arrived in Hong Kong. Two hours until the flight to London

Sleepy Haneda Airport and a sleepy Peter.

teamLab borderless seems expensive, but is totally worth it I reckon. Shame you can't re-enter as I'm getting hungry after spending a few hours here.

​

Last day in Japan 😭 at least I get to show off one of my new t-shirts

I was told I was very lucky to see all four idols on the same day. Thank you dear stage 🙇‍♀️

I went to Dearstage for the first time today. I got to speak to Waka, Fuuri, Risuko and Eri, with Mahiru from Moso Calibration translating for me, as well as making some new friends who also helped translate for me.

A very good evening 😸
