Contact BanG Dream Girls Band Party Support

I think a rhythm game’s objective should be to ensure that the actual game runs as smoothly as possible. After all, even a little lag will ruin an entire game. That’s the issue with this game, it’s filled with so much of these extra anime girl jpgs and voice lines that it takes up loads of unnecessary space while interfering with gameplay to the point where it lags. I personally couldn’t care less about any of these “stories” that you have to download and watch every time, and it bothers me that the game is filled with loading screens loading content I do not care about - which brings me to my next point, QoL. A restart option is found in many rhythm games because the developers are competent enough to realize that people will often practice a song many times to get it perfectly right. This game, however, forces you to go through 7 button clicks and 3 loading screens for something that could simply be done with a single tap in other games. I don’t understand why this is the case, since making this such a hassle won’t make people any more likely to pay premium currency to “continue” a failed run. Anyways, I’d give this game 5 stars for the music and gameplay but the minor problems are so ridiculously simple that there is no excuse as to why it hasn’t been fixed.

I haven't really been interested in this franchise in the past, but I'd heard a lot about it so while looking for rhythm games this was one I settled on. I was sorely disappointed, however, to find out what an absolute terror the UI was. Gradient and bright-colored boxes with thin, stylized text and a nonintuitive and confusing layout made it borderline unplayable within the first five minutes.
The game also made the decision to launch you directly into a story sequence that lasts way too long with characters I had no knowledge of talking about things I do not know nor really care about. Probably a fun nostalgia trip for people invested in the franchise, but not a great intro for those testing the waters.
Finally, I get to the part I was looking forwards to most—the rhythm game. Even if the rest of the game wasn't my thing, maybe I could enjoy still enjoy tapping out some J-pop. I was horrified to learn half the song was obscured by the band characters loudly announcing their skills activating (something I figured out how to fix in the settings, which were relievingly understandable and had a lot of customization options, hence the two stars instead of one).
Overall, it's just... kinda bad. At least my experience was. Not much actual gameplay, mostly just cute anime girls, which isn't bad, just not what I wanted.

First of all, I wanted to start off that this game was excellent! This was the fun game that only stands out in my iPad, so I really like it! The characters are lively, which is good, and the rhythm of so many songs makes me smile everyday!! Until one day... I am not hating on this game or anything, but what happen?

When I came back from playing with other players online, I wanted to do a “VS Me” live. For some reason, it gave me a warning that I harassed a player during my live, and it gave me 10 seconds, until I can actually do it. I didn’t harass anybody in my live, which was pretty strange. That means that a random player reported me. Why? On the same day, the game started to load often, and my hits wouldn’t go through. It bring a huge impact on my score. Sometimes, when I would go into “Options”, it restart the game all over again? Oh yeah, another thing. I actually used to have an account on here already a long time ago. I lost it. Why? When I saved my data in the Game Center, and restarted the game for freshness because it was loading too much, iT lOsT mY dAtA fOr nO rEaSoN!1!!1!1

Again, I wasn’t trying to hate on this game, but please improve. Improve until this review get five stars. For now, I am deleting and not downloading the game back up again, because it also takes up a lot of storage in my IPad. 😌😌
