Synopsis

Haru Nabatame, Rio Seibu, and Kyouka Tamaki's idol unit, TiNgS, is on the verge of disbandment. However, if they can fill all two thousand seats in their upcoming anniversary concert, their idol careers will live to see another day. This quota is seemingly impossible for a group like them, especially when the most people they have had at a show is 37. Fortunately, they are placed under a new talented manager—Naoki Hinase.

While initially reluctant due to past experiences, Naoki takes charge of TiNgS after sensing Haru's genuine passion for idols with his own remarkable ability to see the shine of someone who is lying. Despite the challenges she faces in this ambitious endeavor, Haru wants everyone in the world to love idols, even willing to become the shining guidepost—shine post—to accomplish her dream.

First up I am really happy that one clip exploded onto the whole Anime Social Media Community, this show would most likely never gotten as much attention as it has.

In this Anime you are immediately introduced to some very fun Characters you think you've completely seen through within the first few minutes but discover as you watch that you weren't even close to understanding them.

I was extremely impressed by the writing of this Anime, a less talented team couldve easily made this a 5/10 show. The way different obstacles were presented and the way they have been dealt with really sometimes makes you think ...

Mixed Feelings

Shine Post has a fair bit of wasted potential, but the character interactions are enjoyable enough to help tug it to the finish line despite never really deviating from the structure of its generic narrative.

The early episodes are definitely where the show is at its weakest, working through very dime a dozen teenage insecurity character arcs to the point that they double up on the "no, I don't deserve to be center" plot back to back for two of the main characters. Then the show gets incredibly dumb, revealing that the group TINGS's main struggles boil down to how our protagonist Haru is just ... too naturally talented and has it hide it so the other members can keep up. The whole fallout with two of the girls leaving TINGS before the start of the show is revealed as a plot by the president to try to trick Haru into trying harder, which surprise, surprise doesn't work, but hey, it's all good. We got the gang back together! Just ignore the fact that we deliberately broke it apart ourselves to begin with.

The manager is easily the weakest character in the show. The most generous take is that he's a very reserved type of guy, but he basically does nothing but be Mr. Perfect whenever the girls need someone to help get their character development moving and is otherwise not really seen or heard. The show's main gimmick is that the manager can tell by supernatural means whenever someone is lying, but this is the most underutilized aspect of the show. The show at least respects its audience's intelligence enough to not explicitly state that is what's happening, but 99% its only function is to tell the audience things they already know. The one time it's somewhat useful is when it's used to reveal that one of the girls' fans was being insincere in her support, but any competent drama should be able to convey that kind of information without paranormal intervention. In the end, it's nothing but a lazy crutch for the writers.

The show does pick up in the last few episodes when the rival group HY:RAIN gets some focus. The main rival girl, Ren, showing up out of nowhere to repeatedly declare "It's time!" to Haru in front of her group and refusing to elaborate is very endearing and helps round out the fun cast of idiots. The other four HY:RAIN girls comparatively get very little characterization, but their role in playing the four-person straight man to Ren's antics is serviceable enough. And serviceable is basically what the show is. At its core, this is a story about newbie idols who are given a challenge with a clear victory condition, and though it's hard work, they manage get to it in the end. It's the boilerplate hero's journey, and while the execution certainly stumbles at times, when it comes to idol stories, you could certainly do worse.
