I’ve been big into Bang Dream for a long time, and really do have mixed feelings about this genre shift its gone through. Because that’s what it is, if you zoom out: a genre shift. When I first fell in love with the franchise, it was a cute slice-of-life comedy with just enough sprinkling of occasional conflict to give it a bit of emotional oomph. RAISE A SUILEN raised the stakes a little bit, MyGO a little bit more, and Ave Mujica a little bit more still, and by now it’s at the point where if you jumped straight from 2018 Bang Dream to 2025 Bang Dream, you probably wouldn’t even immediately realize it was the same franchise.
What they're doing now certainly isn't objectively bad, and it's not as if I'm not personally enjoying it at all, but I’d be lying if I said I didn’t feel any sort of resentment towards “new” Bang Dream for taking “old” Bang Dream away from me. Because again, I loved old Bang Dream, and this definitely is NOT that. It's like the feeling of when an old friend grows up to be a totally different person than who they were when you first met them. |

Funny thing is: The director has confirmed in an interview with animecorner that MyGo and Ave Mujica were at first intended as a separate thing from Bang Dream but later on in production decided to integrate their story into Bang Dream. Guess they decided it was better than making a new game for MyGo and Ave Mujica. By making them part of Bang Dream they can include them in the already active game and use the game as a source of revenue from fans
