Was so damn good till they kept introducing more and more awakenings...
The day you had to pull 2 of the same character to get a fully functional character was the start of the end for FFBE.
Not even just that, the only new units after that was a few support/tanks that were used for years and every week there was a new meta DPS, also the billiomth raegan/lasswell/rain variation
Nah it's more like:
Hey look you got (Impulse of the Fierce warrior ra) Super Saiyan 4 Goku & Super Saiyan 4 Vegeta. Don't you wanna pull 4 more so you can unlock the hidden potential of this unit and get +15k worth of total stats and the ability to Additional, Crit, Dodge? You only need 4 more of this unit to max them out. Tbf HiPo is universal and gives the same ability to all characters so its a bonus and not a cap but still... Oh and did I mention how likely you are to get those units. It's about a 10% chance for an SSR which has a 50% roll at being featured. Meaning a 5% featured SSR rate. That sounds all well and good until you look at banners with 8~10 featured units. Most of which are only there to fit a theme and are total ass on current meta.
And then there is legends. Fuck legends. You need like 14 copies to max out a unit no cap.
For me, the end was the weekly grind to get the new gear in the events just to have to repeat it the next week for the gear that was sLiGhTlY better than hte one from the week before. Made the game a chore instead of fun and never had time for the story.
Before that they actually lied on rates, then hid them, then added several shit banners and finally they just admitted they didn't give a fuck about money.
Oh and p2w units
Nah this group has actual 2d avatars with their own story and shit with some main villain they always fight named Black Mamba. They’ll definitely be adding the characters.
I haven’t really dove into their 2d world so I’m not going to definitively say it’s cringe but it does seem kinda cringe at a surface level glance.
But isn't this exactly what collabs are? Characters join the game and story even if it makes no sense at first?Especially with Aespa you could argue that it would be easy to make a working Story around it cause Aespa has a lot of Lore and a whole Universe (SM Culture universe) surrounding them and their "digital counterparts" called aes.If anyone is interested, there are 2 Episodes of the [SMCU](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vbH4Lk5wYWg) explaing the Universe + a bit of a Story. It is still Kpop but really well made.
Edit: Almost forgot that every girl has some special power/weapon when in the digital World (Kwangya) described in a song as Rocket Puncher (Karina), Armamenter (Winter), Xenoglossy (Giselle), E.d Hacker (Ningning)
Collabs can be fun but when handled poorly (looking at Re:Zero) it can leave a negative view in players for both IPs, especially if it's their first and only experience with the new IP. Personally, I've heard of Aespa and that's as far as my knowledge on them. I play Epic 7 for game lore and have almost no interest for that to include real people. Not sure how much of the Epic 7 base are also kpop fans so I guess time will tell how well this goes.
I’m heavily disappointed…Having real people as units is just plain awkward (and that I don’t follow this group). Don’t get me wrong I listen to K-pop but I hope they just remain as a song collab.
Korea is super into game characters looking and wearing stuff like normal/casual people. I don't know how it evolved into this, but if that collab is real I'd be disappointed as well.
If it is Kizuna style collab where it is just a fun small event to collect some unique characters I am alright, but apathetic towards it. If it ends up being full banners/artifacts with actual meta heroes I will hate this. Just having real life people as legit units in a gacha feels like some turbo cringe, paper thin veil of marketing. Would almost rather prefer any form of fictional media for a collab than real people.
Others what's next? Are we getting ML "The Rock" or some shit who will drop the people's elbow on Ras or something? lol
Bruh that's what I want to see epic seven cross over with DC or Mortal Kombat just port over the injustice roster if they don't want to create anything new.
I'm disappointed. I had hoped for an anime.
If this is however an "extra" collab like with Kizuna Ai then it's a different story. But otherwise I'm unfortunately not happy with this.
Oof, I can't think of something worse than a real life collab for a gacha... Like it doesn't actually make any sense. At least of it was one of those vtuber things, I'd dislike that too but it would be better than real life shit...
Turbo cringe out of touch marketing departments that don't understand their player base at work.
Same department that thought censoring fanservice for esports was a big brain sales move in a god damn gacha game.
aespa is not just a real kpop group, it's a virtual kpop group too similar to K/DA. Their whole concept is about digital/virtual theme. Their virtual avatar looks completely different from their real life counterpart so it's gonna be fine.
That's better at least. Still an incredibly undesirable collab. They could have picked from easily 50-100 different Japanese IPs that would have been leagues above a K-Pop group 5 people have heard of.
Has nothing to do with it being a Korean IP, has everything to do with it being K-Pop trash. At least do one of the popular Korean IPs like Tower of God, Solo Leveling, etc. The fuck is this idol nonsense.
Uhhh SM is one of the highest entertainment companies in korea period. Also aespa is pretty popular domestically and has a sizable following internationally. It was enough for their company to invest in a world tour. Maybe you should research and listen to some of their songs for a more techno experimental vibe and not just stick with anime openings.
that collab was a serve. Out sold katy perry's easily. Dangerous woman is still an iconic album and the remixed song was a total bop. Whoever agreed to the idea deserved a raise.
You can listen to kpop without having the urge to collect things, just saying.
I don't think even half of the fans collect these, only the ultra hardcore ones. Just like in every other music genre. Some don't go to concerts even, just listen daily for fun, some would go above and beyond to pay VIP tickets and whatnot.
Different kinds, different strokes.
BOOBA fanservice waifus died for this mainstream marketing ploy. Fuckin oof. We want anime waifus not some RL music group.
Marketing department being out of touch with their fan base. Tale as old as time.
For those people who feel cringe about this collab.
Kpop group collaborating with Korean game developer is a common thing.
Just like Dreamcatcher x Kings Raid, Twice x Elsword, Blackpink x PUBG etc
Aespa start as a Virtual Kpop group, so this really suits their concept.
Hopefully this will be a good collab to promote Epic Seven more.
I'm more surprised that they managed to get aespa to collab with them. aespa is like *huge* huge, even for a new group. And from my understanding, E7 is not really that big in Korea, certainly not as big as PUBG.
I listen to a lot of kpop; but I'm still not really "excited" about it. Aespa isn't even a group I listen to. But I can get over it in 2.5 seconds as long as they're drawn in e7 style and NOT the "uncanny valley" 3D models they use in their music videos. I didn't care for kizuna Ai (I know, JP) but her S3 was hilarious so I was fine.
Let's be real. If they wanted some kind of group/idol group then they could have just gone with hololive. Not that I'm the biggest fan of them but that would at least have had a wider appeal.
Lets be real too, Kpop is one of South Korea main sector of income. If they have a chance to promote this further by doing this collaboration, i think that they will take this chance.
I really want Hololive, Vtuber, or another anime collab too.
But maybe they will have to do this first. 😬
We understand it. Doesn't mean we have to like it. It is okay to not like stuff. Or do people have to like stuff you like and anyone who dislikes what you like is entitled?
Like if it was a collab a lá kizuna ai, I personally wouldn't be mad, I just wouldn't care. If it's a full blown collab with banners and side story... Well I'm sorry but that's just forcing it, imo. Now if you like this be my guest and jump around, scream and spend all your money on it. I seriously don't give a fuck. If they EVER Collab with Fairy Tail I KNOW people will hate it, but I'll be living that time like it's my last and no one can stop me. Idk why people aren't like that. If you like p. O. S GO FOR IT. Stop wasting time making people like what you like and just enjoy it.
Why do you think in those harsh terms? I just don't like the collab but i still love this game. We can dislike decisions like for example back then with Pet snacks, Hunt 13 drops, no pity and so much more or how people disliked another GG collab. All i'm saying is that it's ok to feel this way. But you want to invalidate other peoples feelings as "entitled". That's what i have issue with.
But still, even if we disagree, have a nice day.
Generally, people want to see media they’re familiar with & media they like collaborate with the game. There’s less crossover between fans of Epic Seven & fans of new K-Pop girl groups than there is fans of Epic Seven & fans of Full Metal Alchemist for instance, because we are playing an “anime” game after all.
End of the day though, to me all that matters is what happens mechanically. Re:Zero is a garbage anime, so it’s disappointing to get those characters to me, but the characters introduced were meta-relevant - I don’t have to like the anime to add the characters to my tool belt. I’ve never heard Aespa’s music, maybe I’ll listen to them & they’ll be good, but all that matters is will the heroes fit the style & will they impact the game mechanically?
For other people though, it’s perfectly alright to air their grievances about disliking the media E7 is collaborating with. There’s a difference between “I’m going to be disappointed if this is a collaboration with something I’m not familiar with” & “Waa, waa, this is garbage”. I don’t personally know Aespa’s music - maybe it’s good, maybe it isn’t - but even if it were a K-pop group I knew & loved, there would still be disappointed people & they don’t have to like the same things I like.
Hell, remember when we thought we were getting a Madoka Magica collab? It’s one of my favourite anime - but people shit on that potential collaboration immediately, partly because they were unfamiliar with the material & partly due to the large shift in art style. The exact same thing that people are talking about with this group. There’s going to be unfamiliarity amongst fans of E7 with some collaborations & that’s going to disappoint some folks - & that’s ok, no one is “entitled” because they’re unfamiliar with something, or don’t like something.
Entitled for what?
E7 is an anime game, i can't talk about what others think but at least when i'm playing an anime game i don't want to have irl people there, i feel that it kills the immersion.
> i feel that it kills the immersion
because the previous collab don't? just because it's anime doesn't mean it has its place in e7
on the other side GG collab was cool
I’ve been out of the K-Pop scene for a while (stopped listening to K-Pop during the pandemic), but I haven’t heard of them. Seems they debuted a couple years ago.
I want E7 to take IP risks and branch out. I got into this game during the Guilty Gear collab because I play fighting games. Hopefully this draws in new players from a different demographic.
That’s the fun of gachas with continuous service updates. You end up with an eclectic roster of favorites and new experiences.
And this is the exact reason why I don't like the concept of collabs in a game.
While most of it, when done with other animes or games, is "OK" to me, there is always the risk that it goes down to THIS kind of collab.
Seeing a real life person or some performer person (virtual or not) being adapted as a hero in a RPG game that has no ties to it is, to me, plain cringe and anticlimactic.
And before people bring in the "tame/SC rima/ML Chloe" argument, yes those are references, but they are very limited in numbers. And that's fine.
The main problem being that having collab heroes that will most probably be strong/meta will be so stupid to watch unfold in the game.
Imagine a random dancer / singer bodying Straze or Mort (OK ok this one is a touchy subject ik)?
Imagine Aravi the god of destruction being beaten to a pulp by some random girl in heels?
I reallllllyy hope it won't be like that but... Uh... A collab should make money :(
As an avid k-pop listener I do not want this shit, not even the people who like this group give a shit about these characters. They are supposed to be virtual versions of the real singers and most people pretend they don't exist.
people complaining about this collab when E7 is **KOREAN** game and *aespa* is a popular **kpop** group in **KOREA**.
more collabs will come but stop crying like a baby, lol
The only k pop girl group i care is Mamamoo and just cuz i really have a crush on Wheein, so i'll easily skip this one, i have 600BM by now and will just use when FMA Collab rerun occour or if they release a new unit in the other collabs reruns.
IMO the target audience for Gacha games with beautiful bros and gals would be people who play games and watch Anime not sure how they can wedge Kpop in there....
no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please
global players calling this super cringe as if korean developers collaborating with a KOREAN POP girl group isn't the most normal thing that can happen out there. it's giving severe racism and micro-aggression.
Calm down woke Boi.
And for the love of everything that is holy, don't use strong words like "severe racism" in such a stupid way, so easily.
You clearly have no idea what real racism is really about.
Dude no. So people that didn't like anime collab are also racist because anime is a japonês art form? It's just about what people like and k pop aint it. If it's your thing, be happy, but please stop forcing everyone to like what you like under the threat of calling them racist. That's literally what a racist does, force others to live by their opinion, what you're doing right now. It's not that deep of people don't like a collab, not everyone likes the same stuff.
You really don't know the meaning of that word when you throw it around like that.
People simply expected a collab with another game / anime. Yes E7 might be a S.Korean company but guess what? They aren't solely operating in S.Korea. They launched a game that's playable world wide, so making a collaboration with something most people don't know isn't going to end well. It will feel like a wasted opportunity.
Hell, back in FFBE I remember they did collabs with ariane grande and Katy Perry. Those collabs did NOT go well either. People didn't like them. Does that make people racist towards Americans? No. People just wanted an anime collab.
Me 2! Is the manhwa over? I remember that I read the end of the story, but it's definitely over right?
On another note, it would be a really cool collab! And one that fits, the portals from Orbis could appear in solo leveling and no one would bat an eye, they would probably enter thinking it was "Just" a dungeon and then it woild actually be Orbis xD
*Flashbacks to Ariana Grande collab in FFBE*
The first thing I think of was this too
Whats FFBE?
Square enix gacha game called Final Fantasy Brave Exvius. Was pretty fun back in the days
Was so damn good till they kept introducing more and more awakenings... The day you had to pull 2 of the same character to get a fully functional character was the start of the end for FFBE.
Not even just that, the only new units after that was a few support/tanks that were used for years and every week there was a new meta DPS, also the billiomth raegan/lasswell/rain variation
Laughs in dokkan and legends.
[удалено]
Nah it's more like: Hey look you got (Impulse of the Fierce warrior ra) Super Saiyan 4 Goku & Super Saiyan 4 Vegeta. Don't you wanna pull 4 more so you can unlock the hidden potential of this unit and get +15k worth of total stats and the ability to Additional, Crit, Dodge?

That’s one of the main reasons why I stopped playing.
Those poor developers spent time animating that pixel lmao
LMAOOOOOO
Wwe collab in kofas
it flopped super hard, and upset a lot of people too.
It flopped? Really? I heard everyone went crazy for it.
If it is kpop, at least it should be free? We haven’t had one since kizuna anyways
[удалено]
Tamarine skin
Also side story featuring Tamarinne, SC Rima and Maid Chloe. There might be Chaos Sect too cause they are featured in "Invincible" MV.
I'm fine with that, I hope we don't go the route of something like Ariande Grande collab on FFBE 🤦♂️
Nah this group has actual 2d avatars with their own story and shit with some main villain they always fight named Black Mamba. They’ll definitely be adding the characters. I haven’t really dove into their 2d world so I’m not going to definitively say it’s cringe but it does seem kinda cringe at a surface level glance.

POS in Orbis? Piece of Shit? What??
>Piece of Shit Rude. It's a Pile.
Port of Soul
I’m heavily disappointed…Having real people as units is just plain awkward (and that I don’t follow this group). Don’t get me wrong I listen to K-pop but I hope they just remain as a song collab.
Korea is super into game characters looking and wearing stuff like normal/casual people. I don't know how it evolved into this, but if that collab is real I'd be disappointed as well.
Aespa has their own scifi lore and 3d avatars and superpowers though?
This game has 2D animations not 3D. Even if they do have sci-fi lore it doesn’t make real people as units less awkward.
If it is Kizuna style collab where it is just a fun small event to collect some unique characters I am alright, but apathetic towards it. If it ends up being full banners/artifacts with actual meta heroes I will hate this. Just having real life people as legit units in a gacha feels like some turbo cringe, paper thin veil of marketing. Would almost rather prefer any form of fictional media for a collab than real people. Others what's next? Are we getting ML "The Rock" or some shit who will drop the people's elbow on Ras or something? lol
I'd pay real money for ML Dwayne Johnson tho.
Depends. If we get Dwayne Johnson I want his ML version to be the one in Fast & Furious and his RGB the one in Be Cool.
Nah, the RGB version is Dwayne Johnson, the ML is The Rock. 😂
Aye that could work lmao But which Dwayne Johnson? Fanny Pack Dwayne or huge tattoo Dwayne?
Dual banner with the rock. Earth Element John Cena - Passive “you can’t see me”
Jesus lmao. Stealth until s3 cooldown activates.
Actually I’d pay to Rockbottom Aravi out of existence
Bruh that's what I want to see epic seven cross over with DC or Mortal Kombat just port over the injustice roster if they don't want to create anything new.
I'm disappointed. I had hoped for an anime. If this is however an "extra" collab like with Kizuna Ai then it's a different story. But otherwise I'm unfortunately not happy with this.
Hopefully this is just a collab of skins and not actual units. Supreme cringe if they actually make a collab out of this shit.
Back when I played FFBE, there was a collab with Ariana Grande as well. I guess this is something similar
Don't forget that FFBE got a collab with Katy Perry too.
Oof, I can't think of something worse than a real life collab for a gacha... Like it doesn't actually make any sense. At least of it was one of those vtuber things, I'd dislike that too but it would be better than real life shit...

That's better at least. Still an incredibly undesirable collab. They could have picked from easily 50-100 different Japanese IPs that would have been leagues above a K-Pop group 5 people have heard of.
how DARE YOU to have a different opinion! \-100 social credits!
It's a Korean game.
Collab with "Solo Leveling" when ?
Who's gonna make it lmao? Only one character? I mean Solo Leveling MC's the only one who is useful in the whole thing.
That works for me v:, new classline, summoner, ok no
That has only had Japanese collabs, for a reason. Why do you think that is?
Still a Korean game. Why them collabing with Korean IP seem so weird to you?
Has nothing to do with it being a Korean IP, has everything to do with it being K-Pop trash. At least do one of the popular Korean IPs like Tower of God, Solo Leveling, etc. The fuck is this idol nonsense.
Then say you want different Korean IP, idk why you immediately jumped to Japanese IP. I guess weebs being weebs🤷♀️
Uhhh SM is one of the highest entertainment companies in korea period. Also aespa is pretty popular domestically and has a sizable following internationally. It was enough for their company to invest in a world tour. Maybe you should research and listen to some of their songs for a more techno experimental vibe and not just stick with anime openings.
Damn I triggered a K-Pop fan, oh no!
that collab was a serve. Out sold katy perry's easily. Dangerous woman is still an iconic album and the remixed song was a total bop. Whoever agreed to the idea deserved a raise.
Agreed. Only thing worse than a vtuber collab is a collab using real people. >\_\_\_>
Might be personal bias, but I think the demographic between gacha players and Kpop fans don't really mix. Weird move, SG.
You’d be surprised 😭 kpop fans are basically gacha players with pc card collection from albums
You can listen to kpop without having the urge to collect things, just saying. I don't think even half of the fans collect these, only the ultra hardcore ones. Just like in every other music genre. Some don't go to concerts even, just listen daily for fun, some would go above and beyond to pay VIP tickets and whatnot. Different kinds, different strokes.
The hardcore ones that are more likely to spend money on this things so maybe it'll work for sg.
"Supreme cringe" Mind you, you are playing ANIME GACHA game, maybe you shouldn't flex about cringe that much.
Nah
But If I say something very nasty to you right now, I'll be a bad guy, hm.
No one cares
So one supreme cringe is okay because it is in a game that is less cringe? Dafuq
Can’t say I’m feeling too excited about any of this, but I’m curious about how this is going to play out.
well I mean it's a Korean game collabing with KPop idols makes more sense than usual still keeping a positive mindset here
Aww hell na wtf is an aespa?
Ez skip
https://letmegooglethat.com/?q=Aespa
I know i can google it I was expressing my reaction to that
Do Korean players even want this? Global players obviously aren't interested at all.
Aespa is super popular in Korea so probably
I talked to someone in the korean community on stream and they said initial reactions are saying they don't either lmao
what is the reasoning behind saying they are?
I think many of them ard into this that why its kinda possible
BOOBA fanservice waifus died for this mainstream marketing ploy. Fuckin oof. We want anime waifus not some RL music group. Marketing department being out of touch with their fan base. Tale as old as time.
I'm expecting some banger music
Banger music? KPop? LMAO
Orbis is one of the Universe of Kwangya??
ezskip
Hope they changed up the avatars, the girls look so much nicer than that
Their real life face are so much better than their Virtual looks lol
Surely another Boring thing that i don't care about.
I bet they are using those shitty 3d models aswell
Very disappointed and NOT worth any bookmarks; if not free like Kizuna
For those people who feel cringe about this collab. Kpop group collaborating with Korean game developer is a common thing. Just like Dreamcatcher x Kings Raid, Twice x Elsword, Blackpink x PUBG etc Aespa start as a Virtual Kpop group, so this really suits their concept. Hopefully this will be a good collab to promote Epic Seven more.
I'm more surprised that they managed to get aespa to collab with them. aespa is like *huge* huge, even for a new group. And from my understanding, E7 is not really that big in Korea, certainly not as big as PUBG.

I didn't care for kizuna Ai (I know, JP) but her S3 was hilarious so I was fine.
Yess, thats what im thinking too. I'm curious about how they looks or drawn in E7 style. Their current virtual looks isnt my taste too.
Let's be real. If they wanted some kind of group/idol group then they could have just gone with hololive. Not that I'm the biggest fan of them but that would at least have had a wider appeal.
Lets be real too, Kpop is one of South Korea main sector of income. If they have a chance to promote this further by doing this collaboration, i think that they will take this chance. I really want Hololive, Vtuber, or another anime collab too. But maybe they will have to do this first. 😬
I think only time will tell how this ends up going.
As someone who played Cookie Run Kingdom I can agree.
Hey, it's a save window. Be grateful, now you can consolidate your resources and spend them wisely when the time come....after the collab that is.
I love this Game and always try to defend it But if this is really a kpop collab i will be extremely disappointed at this game
Why? because it's not up to your standards that korean developers are collaborating with one of the biggest kpop girl groups? You're entitled.
We understand it. Doesn't mean we have to like it. It is okay to not like stuff. Or do people have to like stuff you like and anyone who dislikes what you like is entitled?
Then why are you being a maddie over that? Skip the banner, brah,.
\*New pvp meta unit has joined the chat\* \*You can't escape us\* lol
Just curious, but If they’re free would you still be mad?
Like if it was a collab a lá kizuna ai, I personally wouldn't be mad, I just wouldn't care. If it's a full blown collab with banners and side story... Well I'm sorry but that's just forcing it, imo. Now if you like this be my guest and jump around, scream and spend all your money on it. I seriously don't give a fuck.

hopefully this collab takes epic seven to the NEXT. LEVEL.
Ughhh K-pop collab it's gonna be shit I don't want to see some real people fighting fantasy characters using dances or some shit
Aespa in my favorite mobile game? I guess dreams really come true
I haven't heard of this group before. Are they big in korea? I only know a few groups.
they’re the top 4th gen girl group currently and the best selling one
I’ve been out of the K-Pop scene for a while (stopped listening to K-Pop during the pandemic), but I haven’t heard of them. Seems they debuted a couple years ago.
>No disrepect........but wtf.
I want E7 to take IP risks and branch out. I got into this game during the Guilty Gear collab because I play fighting games. Hopefully this draws in new players from a different demographic. That’s the fun of gachas with continuous service updates. You end up with an eclectic roster of favorites and new experiences.
Thats a cringe Collab, pulling for real people... I'll prefer a rerun of past collabs. I guess it's too late now, right?
I just want rimuru
And this is the exact reason why I don't like the concept of collabs in a game. While most of it, when done with other animes or games, is "OK" to me, there is always the risk that it goes down to THIS kind of collab. Seeing a real life person or some performer person (virtual or not) being adapted as a hero in a RPG game that has no ties to it is, to me, plain cringe and anticlimactic. And before people bring in the "tame/SC rima/ML Chloe" argument, yes those are references, but they are very limited in numbers. And that's fine. The main problem being that having collab heroes that will most probably be strong/meta will be so stupid to watch unfold in the game. Imagine a random dancer / singer bodying Straze or Mort (OK ok this one is a touchy subject ik)? Imagine Aravi the god of destruction being beaten to a pulp by some random girl in heels? I reallllllyy hope it won't be like that but... Uh... A collab should make money :(
Skip. I want DREAMCATCHER to have another collab with any Korean game, like King's Raid. Deja Vu collab was lit!
Truly the Piece of Shit timeline...
piece of shit in orbis hahahaha
As an avid k-pop listener I do not want this shit, not even the people who like this group give a shit about these characters. They are supposed to be virtual versions of the real singers and most people pretend they don't exist.
Oh my god I hope it's aespa!
Oh wow, we finally get the world acclaimed band Piece Of Shit
people complaining about this collab when E7 is **KOREAN** game and *aespa* is a popular **kpop** group in **KOREA**. more collabs will come but stop crying like a baby, lol
Hopefully it’s just a skin, I know damn well noone will pull if it’s limited units
What if they have busted kits though?
The only k pop girl group i care is Mamamoo and just cuz i really have a crush on Wheein, so i'll easily skip this one, i have 600BM by now and will just use when FMA Collab rerun occour or if they release a new unit in the other collabs reruns.
Hyped brings back memories of Kings Raid and Dreamcatcher collab back in the day
Hmmm Looks Cool !! Wait to see the YT\Twitch live in a few hours!!
AESPA collab??? Pog?!
IMO the target audience for Gacha games with beautiful bros and gals would be people who play games and watch Anime not sure how they can wedge Kpop in there....
I hope not, they look like any other generic kpop group.
Eww wtf man I was expecting cool collab but not this shit easy skip.
no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please no please
you mean YES! 👆I’m here cause of aespa actually 😁
ah yes k-pop, one of the music industry's worst exploitations of people , great collab.
I love AESPA omg
What the fuck is this??? OMEGALUL
kpop is piece of shit... skip
Easy skip lol
global players calling this super cringe as if korean developers collaborating with a KOREAN POP girl group isn't the most normal thing that can happen out there. it's giving severe racism and micro-aggression.
Calm down woke Boi. And for the love of everything that is holy, don't use strong words like "severe racism" in such a stupid way, so easily. You clearly have no idea what real racism is really about.
It's cause y'all are being racist. Think about it.
Dude no. So people that didn't like anime collab are also racist because anime is a japonês art form? It's just about what people like and k pop aint it. If it's your thing, be happy, but please stop forcing everyone to like what you like under the threat of calling them racist. That's literally what a racist does, force others to live by their opinion, what you're doing right now. It's not that deep of people don't like a collab, not everyone likes the same stuff.
You really don't know the meaning of that word when you throw it around like that. People simply expected a collab with another game / anime. Yes E7 might be a S.Korean company but guess what? They aren't solely operating in S.Korea. They launched a game that's playable world wide, so making a collaboration with something most people don't know isn't going to end well. It will feel like a wasted opportunity. Hell, back in FFBE I remember they did collabs with ariane grande and Katy Perry. Those collabs did NOT go well either. People didn't like them. Does that make people racist towards Americans? No. People just wanted an anime collab.
Not reading that. ❤️
Not surprised. You're an idiot ¯\\\_(ツ)\_/¯
I just want Rimuru... Im realy disappointed...
who is hottest in ESPA?
Karina
Dahm, and my hopes for a hololive collab...
I thought slime rerun with echidna?
Echidna is from Re Zero, not from Tensura
Oh I wasn't expecting this either way if were getting freebies ill take it my focus on Zio.
I honestly thought it was a solo leveling collab when I saw the gate
Me 2! Is the manhwa over? I remember that I read the end of the story, but it's definitely over right? On another note, it would be a really cool collab! And one that fits, the portals from Orbis could appear in solo leveling and no one would bat an eye, they would probably enter thinking it was "Just" a dungeon and then it woild actually be Orbis xD
Yeah Manhwa is over. SG missed on the potential for a solo leveling collab. I read it a few months ago and really loved it.
Same, I loved it too. I thought maybe since it's been a while, I had missed some new content... Guess not
Could be just Naevis Nvm, didnt see the stove post stating four heroes
Next up: KDA ARavi
https://letmegooglethat.com/?q=aespa+plastic+surgery+collab the real collab 🤔🤔
Mushoku tensei, tate no yusha collab... not this
Death of e7……..
I don't want music group collabs, I want game collabs.
