Would you like to see a Photokatsu ranking for Dreamy Crown?

Angely Sugar deep dive: czcams.com/video/OBvyIgyOcxI/video.html
Sora may be the youngest top designer by age but Senaâs brand is still younger then hers as you mentioned in the video
@@darkessraven Good point! That almost makes me feel bad for Sena đ
That sounds good
What is photokatsu?
@@kyoryumika862 It's an old mobile rhythm game for Aikatsu! It's not active anymore, but it had a ton of coords for Aikatsu and AiStars
I love how this brand was completely dedicated to Akari, bro is desperate for love
What I really enjoy about Dreamy Crown is the fact the brand is not afraid to use different colors, exactly like the first halloween coord we saw. I think that pink is too overused for cute type brands, just in Idol animes in general and I am glad that Dreamy Crown is the one brand that breaks apart from the "pink is cute" stereotype. Not only that, but Dreamy Crown isn't afraid to experiment using trends or getting inspirations outside of Japan, I think that this is the reason why I like the brand, it isn't tied to Japan when it comes to inspirations and instead uses what it can find from other places and add them to their cards. I may well be a bit too biased to the brand since I've always the idea of cute ribbons and bows like put on outfits, and not just 2d ones which are already printed on the pattern, the 3d ones which pop out of the dresses, if that makes sense. I can't say the same goes for the Aikatsu on Parade one though, the halloween coord looked like it was from Mirai's brand, at first, I thought that it was from her brand and they also kept the cat concept too, I was hoping to see another costume idea like put into the dress. I also think that her pink premium dress that she wears with Yume in Future Jewel is too simple, it just doesn't give off that vibe and like it doesn't make me want that dress for myself, like the other dresses from the original show. Dreamy Crown just has a special place in my heart since it is my number one brand from all Aikatsu series, including the Stars and Friends series. I just love how each dress dances with Akari while she performs, especially the Ruby Blossom Coord, that dress, it's just the best designed dress in Dreamy Crown, well, in my opinion at least.
Totally agree!! I know the og vs on parade debate is mostly up to personal preference, but I also prefer the style of the og Dreamy Crown đ
@@idolkiwi The og Dreamy Crown feels like it gets the concept of the brand much better than the newer dresses for sure. The new ones feel like that Dreamy Crown is a brand for Akari only, like copying the colors of Miraiâs halloween dress onto Akariâs outfit. And also the fact that they did not even attempt to make Akari wear another costume just bugs me. I miss the colors from the og one, some are not even âgirlyâ colors yet the brand still manages to make it work into the outfit, making the overall outfit way better than the newer ones. Hopefully the next time we see a Dreamy Crown outfit, it will be better, or at least give off the vibe of the og one, miss the og outfits honestly.
This is a really smart deep dive. I learnt so much meta information I never even thought about
I loved the evolution of Akari's relationship with Sena since they both started from zero.
Dreamy Crown has always been a really pretty and regal brand so I was excited to watch this
Thank you cureice!! It was a ton of fun to put all of the pieces together, I gained a lot of appreciation for Sena and Akari in the process đ
Of all designer and idol relationships, Sena and Akari is definitely the most interesting đ Love Tsubaki 2bad she wasn't in the main cast ;-; Also the dreamy puppy goes from cute to uncanny real fast to me
So true on all these points!! I had so much fun tracking down all of the details đ„°
I love this channel so much đ I didn't know the brands had so much different fashion influences, learning the names of these aesthetics I've been searching for is actually the best thing ever.
Thank you so much đ„č That's one of my main goals for the channel and I'm so happy it's helped you!!
I just love this deep dive!đ Dreamy crown is my favorite brand as Akari is my favorite aikatsu character. It never clicked that the princess craze influenced it in some way but makes tons of sense. I loved Akari and Tsubasa's partnership. I really wanted to see Tsubaki in a dreamy crown dress at least in photokatsu...to bad. Man, they made her another premium in parade and didnt use it?? Man it look so cute!!! đą
Dreamy Crown has so much potential left to explore, maybe we'll be lucky and they'll do more with it someday đ
I finally had a chance to see this video and im so glad i did! I really appreciate your effort to compile everything onto this video! I can see where Dreamy Crown's inspiration came from now...
Dreamy Crown has been my favorite brand up until now, i think its because of the royal and regal look but doesn't miss the sweet taste. It still have bunch of frills, ribbons etc. So it felt more into the Western and Elegant style!
As the mention on what's going on back on 2014...i can assure you that the "Princesses" influence was also taken by other toy companies not just Aikatsu. But i'm still suprised that the design team members could give a Coord Designs that is still original and true from themselves but also captured the fairytales stories well, and i think that's really cool!
As for Sena and Akari's relationship i am aware that they were meant more to be a Professional Partners than Romantic. So i'm glad that the staff members also mentioned they want to make a story where a Designer & the Idol grew and understanding eachother. And they executed it SO WELL! I know there are some bits of fanservice
(which i also personally enjoy.)
but i think they did it real natural, it's not really to forced which i also love.
Despite from seeing it Platonic / Romantic, i can say their relationship is really nice. Their conversation felt natural and not forced so it's giving a really warm presence whenever they finally acknowlegde or compliment eachother as it seems as a climax scene between them. Honestly i knew that they "implied" some romance but its a little less & tamer, they are still aware of the story didn't want to go off from the idol usual aesthetic and i could say they did a great job on it.
For me, i think Sena & Akari is a great example for the Partners Trope. They are supporting eachother while also fighting on what they want to achieve. They might also develop a little bit of feelings to eachother, but it's not too forced. I think that what makes them a special partners overall.
i'm sorry for the long comment, Dreamy Crown is my favorite brand, Sena & Akari is one of my favorite characters
so i felt really happy when someone made a deep dive about it! It made my day feel much better.
I'm appreciating all of your Aikatsu videos, Aikatsu is a BIG part of my childhood and the one who made pretty much my whole personality, so it's really special for me, i'm looking forward for your next videos! Keep it up!
Thank you so much for your comments, I enjoy hearing your thoughts! đAikatsu is so important to me too and it's nice to have people to talk about it with! Totally agree with your feelings about Sena and Akari too
Iâm so glad I found this channel. I really love the Aikatsu OG brands (Like Angely Sugar, Aurora Fantasy, LoLi GoThic, and especially Dreamy Crown) I feel like itâs very clean and polished on the eyes for me. The newer ones are great too I just prefer those more.
I really love Akari and so it is normal for me to also love Dreamy Crown. But it is not because of only Akari that makes me love Dreamy Crown, itâs because of both Sena and Akari that makes me love it so much. I love the color they choose to go with since pink color idol is honestly too much at this point. The navy color really add in the royalty(ness) and the accent of pink color that is not pastel makes it all the more pop.
The amount of effort you put onto this is so good. I like how you compile a lot of information you put into this one video. that's such an awesome deep dive! there's a lot of informations that I didn't know about this brand until now.
At first, I wasn't so interested with this brand (maybe because I'm not into the princess theme as much.) but odette swan made me interested with this brand. As episodes goes on, I consider this one of my favourite brand to this day. i love the mixture between cute, regal & elegant themes mixed. Unlike other cute brands, I love how this brand uses wide variety of colors (which I appreciate since most cute brands has _pink_ in them and it kinda bothers me.) and not just pink. I'm also glad that dreamy crown doesn't have that much cutesy elements like the other cute brands has.
akari & sena are the reason why I love season 3. Both of them started from less known/amateurs idol & designer to actual professionals. Their partnership feels so realistic and not unnatural, forced and shallow. I love how both of them care & understanding each other so well. I'm so happy that the writers executed their relationship so well.
I enjoyed watching this video a lot. and by the way, sorry if there's any grammatical errors.
Thank you so much for letting me hear your thoughts, I'm so glad you enjoyed the video! đ„°
I think Sena was the one designer that always have concept block.
Even Kazesawa Sora has a lot design from herself rather than Sena
Great observation!
Love SenaAka so much, -like the one and only time aikatsu shoujo couple worked imho lol-
Also LOVE this deep dive!
I always love Akari and the brand, for me Akari always look the best when she presents herself to be more Blue (reminds me of Bloom from Winx since she looks the best when it's Blue yellow than Pink)
Also unrelated but it's kinda amusing how Ogkatsu (and also Planet) PRs look the simplest, i do think they stand out from the later seasons
Thank you!! I love Akari in blue too, she does have Bloom vibes đ„°
Well on parade had abysmal PR to be honest. The coords Maria, Noel and Sora use for Twilight Etranger were rare AT BEST.
@@Light14Lilium Hafta agree, dont know what even happened to the PRs in Dream Story OVA but abysmal??? that's too harsh
@@prizmastarz742 I was just really disappointed once I realize those were supposed to be PR. Especially cause that same series has decent PRs (Not legend PR just PR) Raki's different PR look like PR. These just look like rare.
This was a fun and interesting dive into my favourite cute brand in the franchise ^^ I have learnt so much from this video and fully explores my love for Akari and also I loved Sena as a character and his and Akaris partnership was amazing and adorable ^^ I would love to see the Photokatsu ranking for the brand ^^ Great video as always ^^
Aw thank you Rosie!! I wish you could have seen all of the brain blast moments I had while researching this đ
@@idolkiwi I can imagine ^^
I really love Tsubaki (I love her more than Akari to be honest) I wished to saw an episode of her reciving a Premium Dress
That would have been so cute đ„șI haven't read her manga series yet but I think she's a great character!
I'm thankful to found aikatsu channel in this time and day i have learnt alot of new things thank to the video I'm so thankful
Thank you for watching! đ
Im honestly speechless on this videoâs dept and detail, I loved it so muchhhhh, Thank uuu
That means so much to me, thank you!! đ
Finally another deep dive â€ïžâ€ïžâ€ïž
And another one coming in a few weeks! đ„ł
@@idolkiwi yay â€ïžâ€ïžâ€ïž
1:43 Omg thats Akari????? Its must be early design
Yep that's her!!
I keep on given Korean dub aikatsu fun facts but I-I'll stop here
Fun fact: Sena in the Korean dub name is Mikaela and Akari is íë which means Sky(which is same meaning as her last name Ozora) plus Angely suger top designer, Asuka name change to Tasha
Well Tsubasa is not the youngest designer...is the youngest male designer, the youngest would be Sora isnt it?
I realized this too late, I'm glad you caught it too! đ
Thank you sooo much for these videos! I really love aikatsu and have been a fan of it since a few years but never found any channels that talked about it in so much details! Really thankyou for the high quality videos! đ©·
Thank you so much for watching! It's been so fun to learn more about my favorite series, and I'm glad you're here to enjoy it with me đ„°
