Bandori.News Round Up! vol. 8

Game News

With the start of a new Popipa Event, featuring Arisa and Kasumi as prizes, came a new cover song from Hello, Happy World, "Himawari no Yakusoku" from Stand by me Doraemon! With its release, we also glimpsed there would be 3 new covers in August. The first one revealed from Roselia is "The Everlasting Guilty Crown", from the anime Guilty Crown. The next two covers will be by Poppin' Party on 26 August, and Afterglow on 31 August.

Speaking of Poppin'Party, the event also came with a Popipa gacha, featuring a 4 Star Saaya, 3 Star Tae, and 2 Star Rimi! You can view the stats here of course! There was also a brand new original song, "Natsu no Doon!", a probable B-Side to "Hachigatsu no if"!

GBP also has been running some summer campaigns to celebrate the airing of commercials, the opening of the collaboration cafe, and Comiket! Bandori Updates gave us all the information on what to expect for the next month. Paid star promotions, the return of the guaranteed 4 Star Gacha, and a starter pack of 1000 Stars and 30 Music Crystals if you log in before 30 August at 3pm! There are also some promotional 2 Star Bandori Cafe girls waiting in your present box if you haven't picked them up yet. There will also be a free costume every day, for 20 days until 18 September with a bonus 50 Stars!

Finally, on 18 August at 9PM JST, another CiRCLE Broadcast will be streamed, this time with the Voice Actors of Lisa Imai and Rinko Shirokane! Thanks for the heads up, Bandori Updates!
