My Top 20 Aikatsu Stars! Anime Songs

This list ended up being more artist-biased than I originally thought.

The day after I finished watching all relevant entries of the original Aikatsu! series, I started watching the Aikatsu Stars! series. I finally finished the series yesterday, and it involved 26 days of watching all the relevant entries. Just like the video I had for the anime songs of the original Aikatsu! series, I also decided to do a top list of my favorite songs from Aikatsu Stars!. I guess Aikatsu Friends! is next.

Note(s):

1. I only considered anime songs from the entries of the Aikatsu Stars! series for this video, which includes Aikatsu Stars! (the first season), Aikatsu Stars!: Hoshi no Tsubasa (the second season), and Aikatsu Stars! Movie.
2. For songs with multiple versions, I only chose the version for each song that I consider best. So for example, I prefer the version of "Miracle Force Magic" sang by Nanase Matsuoka over the version sang by Rie Fujishiro, and I only included the Nanase version in the video.
3. "Diamond Happy" is originally the second opening of the first season of the original Aikatsu! TV series, but it also played in episode 20 of Aikatsu Stars!: Hoshi no Tsubasa (the second season). I included it in the video because it's technically an anime song in the Aikatsu Stars! series and it's a good enough song to be in the video, but I gave it a non-whole number ranking since it's originally in the original series and I already had it in my previous Aikatsu! video before.
4. "POPCORN DREAMING♪" plays in both the Aikatsu Stars! Movie and episode 21 of the first season of the Aikatsu Stars! TV series. The movie aired first before the 21st episode, so I used the version from the movie in the video.
5. For those who are curious, 7.5s start at #21, 8s start at #17, 8.5s start at #11, 9s start at #9, 9.5s start at #5, and 10s start at #3. The one song that I gave a score of 7.5 but did not make the cut in this video was "Mitsubachi no Kiss" by Sena・Rie from AIKATSU☆STARS!. (As a side note, 7s start at #28.)
6. Again, for the curious, my least favorite song from the Aikatsu Stars! series is the solo version of "Hadashi no Renaissance" (though it's way better than the two songs I mentioned as my least favorite in the previous Aikatsu! video).

P.S. Best girls of the Aikatsu Stars! series are Yuzu and Lily (their friendship is one of the best things in the show), then followed by Rola (or Laura or however her name is supposed to be spelled), then Yume, then Ako.

P.P.S. After having watched both the original Aikatsu! series and the Aikatsu Stars! series, I can confidently say I prefer the original series over Stars, though both series are really good stuff still. It's just that I have some issues with both seasons of Stars that prevented me from enjoying them more.
