Gameplay

Show by Rock!!

Show by Rock!! was a mobile game, combining elements from both rhythm games and raising sim games. Players could choose from 26 different bands, each having their own music style and uses special cards for each gameplay. The player's team could have up to five cards, and choose one support player from a list. The player had a certain amount of "soul" for each element depending on their cards. The player could play whichever song they would like from the band of their choice, as well as the level that works with their team. Occasionally, a band's members' Melodisian Stones may turn dark, and thus a boss battle appears. For the boss battles, you may only choose a song from the band whose Melodsian Stones turned dark, and the goal for each boss battle is to survive until the end. Players also get to create their own character at the start of the game, and design their own room.

Fes A Live

Gameplay for Fes A Live was similar to that to the original series that preceded it, but presented it in a landscape format similar to The Idolmaster and BanG Dream!. Unlike the previous game, the game only had a limited amount of bands presented but each are assigned to their musical alignment: Melody, Harmony and Rhythm instead of the traditional elemental attributes of the previous game. Gameplay for the live section mode had the same elements from the original and inherits newer twists such as swipeable notes, the ability to adjust scrolling speed and a more traditional 5-note layout.

A new feature of the game was the town of GURF, which serves as a main hub for the player. Players had to customize with specific buildings in order to gain sound dollars, the game's free currency. These could also be earned by obtaining items after each play session specific to each band, which could be sold to the shop ans also could level up each band. As the player levels up, newer slots in the town were added in order to add more buildings. Also, players could also upgrade buildings by buying them through the in-game store using sound dollars as well. The game also had a boss battle mode, which could be accessed through by finding a corrupted myummon in town and defeating it could earn players with more currency. The game's bromide system also returns, allowing players to obtain bromide cards through gacha using Melodisian Stones and each card could be evolved if certain levels are reached, each having various rarity. In addition to a story mode, the game also had a 69 Memorial Mode, which allows players to read the storyline of the original anime series for new players of the game.

Cyan ends up in a new world called Midi City, a place where those who command music control everything. There, she sees a concert performed by a kemono band called Trichronika and realizes she had taken on the form of a white kemono cat girl, dressed in a costume resembling Gothic Lolita fashion. However, when a "dark monster" starts to attack the concert and begins to corrupt the Melodisian stones of the Trichronika members, Strawberry Heart materializes in Cyan's hands and tells her to play something with it to defeat the monster. As she saves the band from turning into dark monsters themselves, she returns to her human form, but retaining her cat ears and tail.

Media

Video games

The game was first unveiled by Sanrio on the game's official website and was first released on July 30, 2013 for iOS and later on Android platforms on June 27, 2014. Sanrio's Chief Director of License Business Akito Sasaki said at a licensing expo that the reason for the game's artistic distance from Sanrio's usual style is because it is geared toward young boys (although it ended up appealing older girls around 15–19 years old). Several promotional videos were also released for the game, and were uploaded to Sanrio's official YouTube account.[9] Service for the game was discontinued on December 26, 2019.[10]

A sequel game to the series titled Show by Rock!! Fes A Live was developed by Now Production and published by Square-Enix in both iOS and Android devices on March 12, 2020.[11][12] On September 29, 2022, it was announced that the game’s server will shut down on November 30.[13]

(Ayane Sakura / Monica Rial)).[17] Shimomura of Sanrio commented that "Sanrio is targeting males who like anime and games, a demographic we haven't targeted up until now, in order to develop cross-media marketing through games, anime, and SNS." Inagawa commented that "This has been a long-awaited anime adaptation. I'm so happy I could cry."[18][19][20]

The series is licensed in North America by Funimation, who simulcast the series as it aired and began streaming a dubbed version from June 7, 2015.[21][22] Funimation released the first season on Blu-ray and DVD on December 6, 2016 in North America and on February 20, 2017 in the United Kingdom.[23][24]

Reception

Nick Creamer of Anime News Network gave the first episode a positive rating, stating that the "debut was a wild merry-go-round of delirious nonsense, but most of it was the enjoyable kind of nonsense" and "this was a wild and largely entertaining debut, but it also leaves me with plenty of reservations. Shows that rely on novelty to stay interesting often fizzle out quickly, and Show By Rock!!'s premise doesn't necessarily seem unique or engaging enough to have much staying power once the sparkles fade."[41] However, Amy McNulty gave the first two episodes a B+, saying that "Show By Rock!! is hard to pin down. It's like a pinch of Di Gi Charat, a dash of The Idolmaster and a quart of Sanrio-style magical girls mixed together and thrown into a frenetic cyberpunk setting. It attempts to do too much at once, yet it manages to juggle plot points fairly well so far."[42]

The popularity of the anime is also shown at the 30th Sanrio Character Ranking with Plasmagica ranking at sixth place and Shingan Crimsonz at second place.[43]
