I feel like AiStar has better production value. like, hey, there's an actual plot in Aikatsu XDD And I really like that. I like it more the original too, but I'm sort of more attached to the Ichigo/Akari gen cast. with Ran and Hinaki being my all time favorites <3 Ran for her attitude and how much she's shown to care for Ichigo and Aoi. And Hinaki because she's so underrated, and I love underrated characters lol. I appreciate her energy, and her few focus episodes were incredibly well written.

When it comes to my opinion for the main trio girls. My all time favorite will forever be Koharu. like, she is SO cute. everything about her is perfect. she is so sweet, selfless, easily approachable, and know how to interact with more aloof-ish characters like Ako and Mahiru. Laura is so fun XD I actually really like her, she's so smug and has a kind of personality we rarely see in Aikatsu, she also really nice and sweet. As for Yume, I have this love/hate relationship with her xD. On 1 hand she's extremely adorable. very hardworking, and far from being a perfect mary-sue like some people claim she is. she's also a really good friend. on the other, I just dislike the rainbow aura :/ I know it's not necessarily her fault but the writers' but still.. I hope she ends up learning not to depend on it too much in the future once she can fully control it.

I totally agree about the songs. Start Line & episode solo are the best ones. the rest leave no impression on me. except maybe Miracle Force Magic, and Mirai Transit, to some extent. They just lack the energy and the WOW factor the old Aikatsu had. and yeah Part 3 songs sound promising. Nanase killed it while singing Dreaming Bird <3. and 1 2 Sing for You sounds really catchy.
