Today is Mikado's birthday! ⚔️🎂 He gets really invested in his romance manga... #batlive #art #ocs

Single panel comic of Mikado and Sae Sakamoto from Battle Live! The Idol School Collection. Mikado is sitting in his room reading a manga with a blushing focused face when Sae walks in and scares him. The text balloons read "Is it finally happening!?" "Is he gonna confess—" "Mikado, dinner's ready—" "AAAAAAA!" "Ah, I'll wait until you're ready, then..."

We've rolled out a spam detector update that should be much better with detecting hacked accounts that post fake "game updates" in comments, among other things. We also did a pass on collection spammers Spam is a never ending battle, but hopefully this update should noticeably improve the situation

One of my favorites about playing Sol's games were the expressions & the characters. Everyone was so full of personality (esp sass!) & their face/body expressions showed it well!

Bread's been getting a handful of new reviews on Steam as of late if you're one of the people that has left a review for it then thank you! it means a lot to see people leave their thoughts about the game (and help show the game to more people as a result)

It probably won't be timed for a festival (unless the stars align somehow) but I'll definitely be reaching out to people to cover Battle Live when the 2nd dlc pack is ready to go
