Live Emotion Game Introduction 5 - Emotional Pieces
Lets have a look at Emotional Pieces:
As described on the official twitter account:
When you cultivate the fragments of the idol's feelings - their 'emotional pieces' - you'll gain access to things like special outfits, and piece stories. You can also see a new side of the idols by awakening them.
Further Analysis below:
As expected, 'Emotional Pieces' seem to be the equivalent to cards/photos in Shining Live. In this video, we get our first look at what I assume is the initial set of SR (super rare) Pieces titled 'Be Elegant!'. The art on the Pieces is 2d, and likely ties into the main story at the beginning of the game as seen in the previous Story gameplay preview with the same background. The four diamonds to the right of the 'Be Elegant!' title likely either representing the cards rarity as an SR, or the amount that is has been awakened (diamonds could fill with colour to indicate awakening).
Screen 1 - Piece Levelling
In this clip we see Masato's 'Be Elegant!' SR Piece levelled up from 1-11 with the use of two EXP Score (S), and two EXP Score (M). The number above the area to select how many EXP Scores to use shows how many of each item you own.
EXP Score (S) earns 100 EXP
EXP Score (M) earns 1,000 EXP
EXP Score (L) earns 10,000 EXP
We can also see there there are three categories of Pieces. Sing, Dance, and Charm. It's likely that each idol can be different categories depending on the Piece (Eg, one Masato SR could be Charm type as seen in this video, and another could be Dance type). Levelling up the Piece adds slightly more to the Piece's assigned type than the others (Masato's Sing and Dance points get an additional 100 points, and his Charm gets an additional 104.
Each Piece has also has an assigned 'Life' value, assumedly similar to stamina in Shining Live. In this case likely each cards 'Life' value being added together to give you a value for your stamina bar.
Under the Life value on the left shows the level of the Pieces Skills. Main Skill, Idol Skill, and Guest Skill.
The buttons at the bottom read (from left to right): Reset, Omakase (Auto?), Confirm, and 'Piece Board'.
Screen 2-3 - Piece Board
This looks to be the various unlockables for each Piece.
The Top tree is unlockables for Story , the middle tree for Skills, and the bottom tree for Costume/Voicelines. Each also had additional unlocks for extra Charm, Dance, Sing, and Life points. They are levelled up with the pink gems seen in the popup screen. It seems each unlock will reward you 2 of the rainbow gems which are likely used for the Piece Gacha.
The outfit unlocked for Van is titled "Formal Wear'.
do the silly thing. if you do not do the silly thing time will pass and it will not be the same silly thing it could have been. it will still be silly, and it will still be yours, but it will not be the same. this is both a blessing and a curse, but so is living; and if you do not do it now when will you? who will? it has to be you, it was always meant for you, waiting for you.
At what point is Mary going to be casually leaving a merry widow brunch and see a wanted poster with a fairly decent sketch of Stede on it, wanted in conjunction with Blackbeard, aka Edward Teach???
Just Mary standing there like...Blackbeard, Edward...Ed.
Casually realising that your husband isn't just 'dating some guy named Ed' but that he's somehow gone from 'hobby pirate' to 'hopelessly in love with the real world incarnation of Satan' and then wondering if this means Blackbeard ISN'T terrible and having to just sort of agree when people talk about being scared shitless of this fucking ocean terrorist whilst knowing he's probably out there somewhere putting up with Stede's snoring and addiction to orange cake.
All I want is to go to a trans person's funeral after they lived a full, enriching life. I want to see trans people grow old, I want us to live like the stars. We don't deserve to burn out before everybody else. When we die, I want it to be because we grew old, because we had lived.

sometimes it really hits me, just how lonely loki was before mobius. they spent their whole life being in thor's shadow and never having friends of their own. they felt like they could never let their guard down and they didn't have anyone to talk to, besides maybe frigga. anyone. they always had to be sharp and ready to perform, because nobody seemed to like the "real" them. then mobius came along and casually admitted he was a fan and where others have dismissed loki's cleverness, mobius firmly said he knows how smart loki is. as tom said, mobius is able to sit in their presence without judging them and loki has never had that before. do you understand how lonely that is? to always have to perform bc you know others are judging you and they are. but. mobius is able to sit with them without judgement, while knowing everything they've ever done or could do. because he believes they are capable of change and they are. through him, they change. and i need you to understand how lonely loki was before mobius and lot of people say 2012 loki and tva loki are completely different people but i don't believe that's true. they have changed drastically since 2012 but tva loki is what 2012 loki could've become if they had a friend. if they had someone who they completely trusted and trusted them back, who liked them and took the time to listen to them. mobius gave all of that and more to them, he stuck his neck out for them countless times, he trusted them over and over, even when he knew it was a bad idea, and most importantly, he didn't give up on them. that's all loki ever needed, for someone to believe in them down to their bones. like i just.
