This episode, this fucking episode, would have been perfect for me if it weren't for Suzuko, I hate her voice so much and she talked way too much in this episode.

Tsubasa has no clue where Acchan disappeared to but she said center novas can see something the others can't, is it maybe the place were kiraras are born?

Beach episode!

Okay, my hunch was right...and the reason why Center Nova is banned. When those Kirara that surrounded Acchan and glowed to its peak, it activated the Kirara drive. opening a warp gate or something causing their disappearance. I thought they would never be seen again, but Miichan proved me wrong and actually appeared as the hired photographer for the gravure shoot. Wearing shades and a hat to disguise herself from being known.

Yuuko, despite it's consequences seriously wants to be a center. Apparently, it looks like sensei-sensei wants to open the slot for center nova again, and it seems that Nagisa and Chieri are chosen. But Miichan wants to stop it.

Also some good development form the others. Like Makoto's laugh out loud concern for her body, and that jelly actually got her breast bigger? Kanata's feelings developed from admiration to actual love. The heart shaped cookies that she made proves it. Chieri has a gentler aura now which makes her more likable character, but still angsty towards Nagisa. Suzuko wants to succeed Tsubasa-san? I approve!


Actually miichan didn't disappear like the other Center Novas. She ran away.

Anyways I enjoyed this episode, may not have had any action but it had good character development and story progress. So we find out that Tsubasa san actually was mariko sama from AKB0048. Miichan, the photographer was also in it, she was the last Center Nova, or the one before, but ran away, didn't disappear.
Sensei Sensei and the kirara bring up a song, that has to do with a center nova?
Tsubasa san wants to make sure by pairing up Nagisa and Chieri and prove the SUPER glow of the kirara when they are together.
So a double Center Nova? or maybe something else.

Acchan was last with Tsubasa(mariko sama) when she disappeared and said "They are waiting for me". So maybe they are meant to go help somewhere else, where nobody knows about, or something.
Kanata still admires takamina, and like people before me said, loves her. Which is cute.
Makoto and suzuko and their funny moments.

And last but not least NagisaxChieri moments. yeah I totally ship them :). Although Chieri still has some doubts about why the Kirara only glows with nagisa and not her. But then again the kirara follows her around, so that has to mean something too. And like I said earlier, it is when they are together when the kirara GLOWS stronger.

I love this anime, If I had more spots for my top favorite anime, it would make it in the top 10! :D
All the characters are very enjoyable, the art/animation is amazing, the music is phenomenal, and the story is definitely unique and perfect. Well for me.

So looking forward to next episode!

Another great episode. The fanservice was real nice and overall really damn funny. Makoto stole the show, she certainly has her own charm and is just overall funny. Hope we go more in depth with the Center Nova thing. The fact that we know one of the Center Novae are around is interesting and its probably only cuz she ran away. Looks like its gonna get serious and I cant beleive Yuuko wants the Center Nova spot to come back even if she may disappear. Im pretty sure she won't feel that way if she learns the truth behind it.

I thought this show would be good to dub and make a kids show to perhaps reignite the female-targeted shows on tv, but then this episode had to come up....
I'm not a fan of pointless fanservice, but at least they revealed some plot points regarding the Center Nova.

Also i'm with everyone who says those Kirara are behind the disappearance of the Center Nova. After Kyuubey, i never trust cute animals who hold some power.

I loved this episode! The beach scenes were a nice break after all the "heavy" stuff lately. Makoto and Linda are such a cute duo, and I have this little feeling that Linda has a crush on Makoto? Might just be me. I was surprised to see a past Center Nova, I thought that they'd have disappeared for good but Miichan did run away so I guess there's that. Sonata's fish head was absolutely adorable, I seriously love her. And Nagisa and Chieri are such a perfect couple, the scene on the pier was absolutely beautiful.

The song seems to be actually the ENDING and the tone of the song is about Dreams and Rebirth.

That could be her own interpretation of her disappearance. If she 'really' ran away, then why Tsubasa ask, "What did you and the other center novas see?" meaning she in fact disappeared because of Kiraras. People who normally ran away don't see something extraordinary not unless there's something else that the series isn't telling us. Remember that Kiraras have the ability to transport people somewhere where they can only see. Tsubasa knows this because she probably have looked into records of past center novas, looking to find a reason to their disappearance and where they go.

I don't think so. Her whole line was "I'm not a Center Nova, I ran away". This sounds like she feels she doesn't deserve to be called like that because she ran away from her duty as Center Nova.

Also it seems Acchan knew where she was going when she disappeared, since she said "there's people waiting for me". This suggest the Center Novae are able to see something even before they disappear. That's probably what Tsubasa was referring to when she asked Micchan what she saw.

All in all, I'm pretty certain Micchan avoided her fate as Center Nova by running away from the team before the light could take her away.

You got a point.

Because on my understanding, they see something when they actually disappeared, but just like Shuumei kiraras who show the future successors, Kiraras can show something else, maybe they see their fate, people who might need them, or more. Who knows...

Wait, what's the correct spelling? Center Nova or Center Novae? Evetaku also said the same in their translations. I'm a bit confuse.

Novae is the plural of Nova.

Oh. It's one of those episodes. Right after a good one, they go and do THIS. Significantly decreases my desire to defend this show. Stuffing characterization moments in between fanservice makes it impossible to take seriously.

The fish head was hilarious. The scenary porn was nice.

Other than that, this episode was garbage. Disappoint, I be.


Here we go mr. negativity over the minor fanservice. This episode was not garbage. The ep provided additional details about the kirara as well as provided background for Tsubasa and some of the other members.

So much yuri fanservice in this one. Epic win.
A good episode, indeed.
But I'm worried that with three more episodes left, not everything will be explained...
Well, still, I just love this show.

>beach episode.

I cant help but laugh at the Sensei-Sensei parts. It's so ridiculously. I can't follow the ''story'' anymore with all those numbers about a group I don't care about.

They're going to Lancastar? How come? And what is Tsubasa planning? I think she might visit her home. Can anyone translate what they're saying?

Minor? Were we watching different shows or what? You obviously don't know what "minor" fanservice looks like. This episode was 95% fanservice. They just tried to stuff character development and plot points in between.

Indeed, you were looking at some different show.

The planet design was tops!

;__; too bad interstellar travel is beyond my lifetime - at the edge at best!

Amazing artwork for the night scenes as someone already screencap'd :p

Makes me want to go on a vacation too ... ;__;

Overall a slow but pretty good down time episode. And finally some development for the mains. Sucked that we got nowhere w/ the Senseix4 mystery.

Anything you post is pretty much negative.

We get it. You hate fanservice, and from your other posts I've seen, you're hard to please period.

If you don't like what you see just save us all the trouble and leave it in your blog.

I do not consider posing in bikinis for pictures fanservice. I do not consider 2 girls posing together in pictures fanservice. I do not consider girls having a conversation in a bath fanservice if there's no sexual overtones.

Admittedly the bouncing swelling boobs were fanservicey, but that's minor fanservice. Major fanservice is nudity, bare boobs and asses, etc. This was not an episode with a bunch of fanservice.
