Ahh my God I can't stop crying it was so good it was just like a movie brilliant I don't cry at all but ai has done it her lies and love just a small story of hers but it's so hard hitting that I just can't stop my tears maybe I liked it so much is the reason why 1 hour of episode is feeling short 😭😭😭

I just came in due to the popularity the manga had back when it was new. I never expected how good it became. This episode took me by surprise and I am absolutely loving it!

This episode is the meaning of perfect for real. It have all, incredible animation, amazing soundtrack and well the plot looks so original. 10/10

It was worth waiting for this anime, which I am sure will be one of the anime of the year without any doubt. I look forward to chapter 2.

THE ENDING WAS INCREDIBLE. There is a lot of potential for this anime. The visuals were pretty good and the story felt deep. waiting for the next episode!!

So am I in the minority that didn't enjoy this? Like at all? It was melodramatic as fuck and in a bad way, the jokes were out of place, the reincarnation thing done in a millionth time. Ai's character only getting some sort of development just before she gets killed didn't hit at all. Kinda disappointed tbh, very surprised how this instantly becomes #1 ranked anime on mal

90 minute episode that's essentially an emotional rollercoaster that tells everything you need to know right out the gate. No matter what anyone says on forums, this is truly incredible. It's the first anime that made me cry in at least 6 or 7 years. Flat-out 10/10 already

Oh wow, a first episode being 90 minutes long is a very great choice, a movie just to the introduction, and it slaps. I kinda half remembered the synopsis for being a bit weird when a friend explained it to me, but seeing it unfold in such a beautiful way (what are they smoking at Doga Kobo???), seeing the evolution of the kids over time and how Ai really are. I am speechless of the end, so sad and very deep after just a mere hour of knowing this character, it's very unfortunate. The twins being reincarnated seems pretty interesting, i'm excited to see if Aqua will be big brain since he's a doctor and when he will know the past of Ruby, all of that in a murder mystery like anime from now on. Really not just an idol show and slice of life, lol. THAT OP SONGS TOO OMG IT'S SO GREAT.
I like everything, ok

So, I know some of you folks did cried but I didn't. Anyway leaving the sentimental bullshit and the idol stuff that I don't care aside, I'm pretty much sold on Aqua's vengeance story.

Absolutely astonished by how amazing this was. As someone who is actually kind of been interested in diving into idol culture more, due to the vtuber rise, this originally peak my interested and after watching it, exceeded it. The part with her talking to Aqua and Ruby before dying was incredibly breathtaking, gorgeous visuals and hit all the emotional spots having only been with the characters for an hour. As the stars in her eyes went out, it was beautiful way to animate her passing yet extremely sad to see her already go. To make it hit home even harder, they even nailed the internet aspect correct with people are online after someone's passing.

One of the best episodes I've watched. When I saw how long it was I wasn't sure, and even the plot description, there are so many things that made me unsure to watch it. But the anime makes sense, the characters are really likeable and have lots of depth. More importantly I love Ai!

I went into this blind and holy hell!

Ruby's rant about the 'fans' and their selfish wants was just great. There's so many people that feel like that creepy weirdo and those commenters.

Also, yeahhh I'm guessing it's their father that gave out the address or somebody he's married to(?).

This was an amazing beginning to the season. Pacing was impeccable, and they got the adaption to the first chapters pretty well. Wise choice for directing. Can't wait for the rest of the season.

I will say it’s pretty dark at times but that’s not it’s purpose. It’s a show that both celebrates the entertainment industry while not shying away from all the fucked up shit that goes on in it. The manga stays very consistently good and I’d say we are still far from the peak.

the 1st episode, very good I liked very much. The part that I liked most is how the show combined realism with fantasy. I expect very much of this show, just seeing the 1st episode I can already tell that this show is going to do very well, either it's going to be one of the biggest flops in anime

It was a good thing to make it 82 mins long definitely packed a punch .
Voice acting and the visuals were on point and it made me almost cry(even though i already knew the outcome).
