All posts will have sources cited whenever possible. Some posts (specifically from author 🕰️) may have original research. All original research posts will be backed up with tangible evidence.

Posts will attempt to remain neutral and be facts-based only. Any personal opinion or speculation will be warned for as such, and avoided completely if it can be helped.

Here are our authors!

Update on 17 January 2025: For the sake of clarity and to emphasize the importance of educated enjoyment, I wish to stress that this account has always and will always view Ensemble Stars!, Happy Elements, and all affiliated with the Enstars brand under a critical lens. This game is my (🕰️) years long special interest and I hold it dearly to my heart, however this in no way means I make these posts under the false assumption that it is flawless. Terrible decisions have been made with the stories, especially as of recently, and this account is made not only with love for what the franchise was and could have been, but also with hope that it may improve and disappointment for its many drastic missteps. This account, as well as any others meant for the spread of information or archival, should be viewed neutrally and with no implication of endorsement of everything this franchise has to offer, even if we record these missteps publicly.

(TL;DR: This account does not endorse HappyEle and everything they've done to and with Ensemble Stars!, and all authors on this account are highly critical of the company.)

Author 🕰️ - cl0ckworkpuppet. Will mainly be focusing on Music. Will make a lot of long posts with original research. (he/him)

Author ☕ - beastofmoss. Will mainly be making short posts. (they/he)

Thanks for checking us out!

I have my copy of Tokimeki Ensemble Volume 2, and it's really cool!

Tokimeki Ensemble is a series of two albums produced by Nanahira and officially sanctioned by Happy Elements and Cacalia Studio. The first volume was actually personally sent to Cacalia, which they posted about on their now-defunct blog. Though not technically "official", Nanahira was permitted and encouraged to continue by the studio's grace!

All of the songs from Tokimeki Ensemble Volumes 1 and 2 are available on YouTube.

In some cases, in order to properly showcase a character's face, some text banners over event teaser card graphics are moved vertically to be closer to the top than to the bottom.

Fight for Judge is the first and currently only song with a Special chart rated as easier than its Expert chart.

hi enstars tumblr!! a while ago (on a different account) i made a post about working on an enstars mv drive so people can have an easy way to access them without giving happy ele watch time. well, it's finally complete!

every mv should be in their respective categories. this does mean every mv, including the more unsavory ones, since this also doubles as an archive, though i made the decision to separate 4katsuki mvs from the rest for obvious reasons. i will do my best to regularly update this as new mvs come out

if there's anything i missed, feel free to send me an ask and i'll add it when i have the time!

In Ensemble Stars!, there were two different items that performed the same purpose when refilling AP/LP, with different graphics, a different name, and a different inventory slot.

These items would also expire at a different time depending on which you got, and were obtained in a different manner.

These items were phased out completely in exchange for Smoothies, Gummies, and Sandwiches.

Do u guys know abt another spin off to engirls called ensemble dream

[supper-ansuta-broth]

Hi guys!

I know I've been pretty absent as of lately, and don't worry, I haven't forgotten about this account nor do I intend on completely abandoning it.

I've been pretty preoccupied with a project that might interest you all: I've been working tirelessly for months on revitalizing the English Ensemble Girls!! Wiki!

I'm currently working on ripping all the assets from Ensemble Dream!, one of the few spinoff games of the Ensembleverse. I wrote the entire Wiki page for this game, and made it as comprehensive as I possibly could!

I'll also have a full video playthrough up on YouTube later today, complete with ALL sixteen (technically seventeen) levels!

[supper-ansuta-broth]

The video is up, by the way!

In one of Ayame Kusaka's SR (four star) cards, there is a version with an error in which the table she's supposed to be eating from is not present. My sources say she ate the table

Would you guys be upset if i made one engirls post because I need to show you guys this

[supper-ansuta-broth]

Kimisaki Academy and Yumenosaki Academy are sister schools, or at the very least related. Though we don't have an accurate time in which the academies were built, Kimisaki has a building that was destroyed sometime around World War II. If we assume these schools were built at around the same time, we can estimate construction began at the very latest in the early 1940s.

i'm not 100% sure about this because idk japanese so i could very well have misheard or he said another word, but in the mayoi sanrio story, one of hiiro's voice bites sounds like he's saying "mayo-san" and it happened like 3 times, all with lines where he says mayoi's name. i don't think he's ever called mayoi mayo-san anywhere else?? i was very intrigued by this and i thought i'd bring it here to see if anyone else noticed

Hi, so sorry! I'm in the jury waiting room right now, and don't have access to Engstars, but as far as I'm aware, it is "Mayoi-san".

The "i" can be a little hard to parse when he's speaking this quickly (and in Japanese, "i" following another vowel can tend to blend into the previous vowel).

I have genuinely zero idea if this has been said by someone else but like. Fan gain multipliers from campaigns cap at 10x (or at least pre-10th anniv. I have no idea about 10th anniv I am not checking JP anymore). Source: I tested this on KR which has Limit Break anniv campaign going giving 9x mult and an idol with the oshi campaign getting 2x mult, I played with 10 BP and the idol only gained 400 fans. I assume the formula is n×(mult1+mult2+mult3+...) with n being the number of fan from BP

That's pretty interesting, and it makes sense!

Translators wanted!

Hi! As a few of you may be aware, I've recently been added to the administrative team of the Ensemble Girls!! English Wiki, and currently I am leading a massive overhaul and update of the Wiki to make it more robust, accessible, aesthetically pleasing, and useful for anyone trying to get into Engirls.

Much of the work we've gotten done has been successful, and the Wiki is looking in really good shape now! However, we've hit a massive snag:

Much of the work that is left to be done involves Japanese to English translation.

(Yes, full stories, but also smaller things, like story/chapter titles, small bits of dialogue, etc.)

Thank you so much! I'll get back to regular posting very soon-- I've kind of run out of things to talk about and I just got out of finals week ^^'

Enstars releases for Taiwan/China (TW shown here) have the characters' names on their cards formatted in a similar way to the Japanese version (of course, with language-appropriate changes made to the Han characters based on how that character's name is translated and changed), with their names transcribed with Latin characters below it.

The Korean release does something similar, keeping the original kanji, but transcribing the character's name into hangul.

This is in wild contrast to what the English release does, opting to do away with the kanji entirely and instead separate the character's given name and surname between the two lines.

[supper-ansuta-broth]

I will not be covering any glitch found in the new update. There are a staggering amount of them, and going through them all would take far too long. I apologize.

[supper-ansuta-broth]

Most hilarious addition possible. Here's a list from the Wiki server, which isn't complete. (There are several not on here that I personally experienced.)
