Talk:Episode 178 - The Best Present/@comment-24848025-20160326090341

Well, now that the last episode is coming up upon us now --- I think I'm gonna double down that the insert song for the last episode will be Dramatic Girl. It's the perfect song to end the series on - it's also a good tie-in song to point fans toward the Aikatsu phone app game. And it'd be a bonus if they decide to make it the full song - which they could since the full song just came out this week (though likely the song would be used like how SHINING LINE was used back in ep 101). Even the setup would be perfect in this episode -- Akari gets the invitation to have a Nori Bento with Ichigo at her house with her mom, Raichi, Aoi, and Ran. Instead of going by herself, she goes with Sumire and Hinaki, running into everyone on the way to the house to round out any loose ends storyline-wise. There, Ichigo wil probably ask what Akari would want aside from a lunch for winning the crown. Akari would probably ask Ichigo to perform with her on stage again with the Crystal Mic - which will lead Aoi, Ran, Hinaki, and Sumire to want to perform with them and thus they perform Dramatic Girl to end the series (no ED theme). Also, possibly - they may cut the Aikatsu Diary to instead show a promo CM for Aikatsu Stars with the remaining alloted time.

It would be a bonus if they cut the OP again to show Luminas performing START DASH SENSATION as a group performance and would be a great way to start the episode. A performance with all the idols in Aikatsu be the perfect ending. Yet - I don't think BNP has the resources to do any of that and prepare Aikatsu Stars with the first episode airing in 1-2 weeks.
