Okay, I suppose that clears everything up. How come Ran and Aoi aren't in Aikatsu8? Is it because of the idol rankings?

All these changes are pretty annoying. New members, different voices, why didn't they stick to the original singers for the original characters? I don't get the "graduating from Star Anis" thing, tbh.

EDIT: Okay, so I realized not too long ago what exactly "graduating" meant, and now that I read your message, I can understand why they graduated, but still..I'm not too sure why I'm unsatisfied even now.

''But speaking of the rankings, didn't Aoi and Ran make it to the semi-finals of BOTH Starlight Queen Cups, while Otome and the rest didn't? So I don't see why they can't get into the top 8 while a beginner (Mikuru, who probably made it PARTLY because of her connections with Mizuki) can, as well as Yurika and Otome, AND a group of idols who only started about a year ago. Didn't Aoi and Ran train as hard as them in the past year while Ichigo was in America?''
