"Bad CGI Mizuki-san really inspired me to keep working hard, Otome. Now look at me— I'm Starlight Queen, baby!"
It's always nice to see the older cast get a bit more screentime, as it really puts the more recent episodes of Akari and the gang in perspective. Sakura's voice fits that song really well, so I'm not too surprised that she won!

Eh, another meh episode. Secondary characters like kamiya always seem to shine in these situations.

Nice! Looks like the actual Mizuki is still around and kicking it.

Now Sakura-san is the Queen, huh..
Why has Ichigo never become the Queen?
Overall too rushed episode, but quite okay.

lol...they moved the tradition from fall to spring just so we could see Sakura win before she left middle school...

I love the older cast, but I kind of wish the show would pick a side. Sprinkling them in like this is not as good as either focusing on them completely or moving onto the new girls.

They definitely made the competition easier to enter. Weren't the requirements during S1 like, you have to do 3 special appeals in a concert to even qualify?

If I remember correctly, Aoi and Ichigo transferred into Starlight while Mizuki was the reigning queen. During their second year they competed with her and lost. Then Ichigo went abroad for a year and Mizuki left the academy. During that time Otome became the queen. Now it is a year later (ish) and Sakura won.

Powa Puri ruling the Starlight Queen title. That title will surely propel Sakura into bigger things. Ichigo, Aoi don't need the title because they are already big idols. Although I would have liked to see Ran become Starlight Queen.

I'm surprised the new girls like Sumire and Juri didn't make it to top 8 finalist.

I heard Sakura being called a 1st year. Why is that?


Oh and I liked the Shion moments. Been forever since she last appeared.

Nice to see Sakura become the new Starlight Queen, but for me Ichigo should have been the Queen. its one that I really want to see. Too bad.

Next episode we'll see Soleil now. Cool!

They used bad CGI Mizuki in the memories, ayyy.

Sakura is a worthy Starlight queen, I'm glad that she won. I also found quite neat to see our main four getting eliminated in the first round, they have a long way to go before being able to reach that level (and makes even more impressive once again how Mizuki won that during her first year and the next two, what a beast.

It was a very rushed competition, but Sakura is definitely a worthy Queen. I'm so happy for her! ^_^

I wish this episode could've been a two-parter, I also think it was rushed, but at least the season 4 Starlight Queen competition made up for it

Sakura becoming Starlight Queen wasn't too surprising, considering that it was foreshadowed over these past few episodes, but did she deserve it? Hell yeah! <3
