----------------------------------------
Once again a great episode with a really nice writing and a very heartwarming feeling. Skip Beat manages to turn every bad experience into an enjoyable one (or Kyoko more exactly), and that's really a feat at this level. One of the very best shoujo anime I've seen.

In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same.

Great episode. I really didn't think there was a way to make the actual process of acting entertaining, but it really is so much fun to watch. I love all these characters, and they develop so naturally on screen, and nothing really feels forced.

Moko-san got some good development there. The pace of this episode was perfect, not as fast as the last few and not too slow either. And I think Hal heard us, there were less chibi popping up in this episode. ~ Kyoko ftw!

From the preview, I can't really tell what the next episode will be about, lol. But there's Ren. Isn't the PV arc next?

think the scene at the beginning would have had a lot more impact if i had re-watched 13 first, as it was the tension just wasn't there so it wound up feeling dragged out.

loved Kanae in this :)

good episode over all

Absolutely loved this episode! I love how the anime has managed to preserve the character of Kyoko so exactly. Even the voice is perfect! Somehow the writers are managing to intertwine the essential humour with some very deep and moving moments that give great depth and insight into the characters.

I totally forgot about the story of the next episode until I saw the spoiler. I think I need to read the manga again.

Good episode, but we are 14 episodes in and there is barely any romance yet, all we get so far is a slight crush, I hope some thing happens in the next arc, I'm getting kinda fed up.

I disliked them at first but now I really love Kyoko & Moko and their interaction. I'm surprised and impressed for the good with this series so far.. I thought it'd be another anime where the girl makes a fool of herself to get the boy... glad to see I was wrong and hope it keeps being so good and entertaining. It's really refreshing to see a series with great female characters in the lead :)
I totally don't mind that there's no romance, though I wouldn't mind Ren/Kyoko O:

AGREED! This is one show that honestly deserves a 10/10 rating in my list.

In this episode, once again there's great character development for kyoko and moko, with fantastic interaction and dynamics between the two. It's amazing how the two of them play off each other's characters and make this show pure entertainment.

Agree too, the episode managed to tie up all the loose ends and still dedicate time (more than half the time!) for some serious character development. WIN ^^

This episode was a lot more fast paced than I thought it would be. They shot straight through the conclusion for the commercial, the Koenji assaulting Moko, and all the way to the actual commercial. Sheesh, I thought they would have ended at the part where Moko lectures Koenji (gawd I hate her).

Overall, I think the final scene where Kyoko comes up with an idea for the drink was a lot more dramatic in my mind. I think they should have given it more suspense and made the bottle explode more dramatically. It seemed to flipped through that scene really fast. Was way more epic in my mind when I read the manga, but that's just me.

I absolutely love the character interactions between Kyoko and Moko, especially since they've been becoming closer friends. Also, the audition scene was well done imo, I thought it was quite unique.

While I was watching this I was smiling the hole time.
I love all the emotion this has but somehow they make it fun to watch is not like omg no they're fighting again,omg she talking about how lonely she is again? No this makes me say awww everytime Kyoko says something.

I loveeeeeeee what Kyouko came up with, and that the director was so impressed with her thinking of it so quickly. So glad he noticed, even though he didn't say it to anyone else.

Wow, this show has just been on another level the last 6 or so episode. Great stuff. Series like this remind me why I love anime in the first place and I really can't think of a better complement than that.

amazing episode!!

Kyouko is such a genius, she can turn a dreadful scene into one of the most happiest scenes in an instant!!

finally Kyouko and Moko-san relationship is getting better and better!

you can feel that there are definitely made for each other!!

Koenji never seems to give up, even going as far as hurting Moko-san. i think as i noticed the last 2 episodes that Koenji just wanted Moko-san to say to her that she is indeed her rival. She grew jealous of Kyouko when Moko is defending her even if she says bad things to her.

lol despite Moko-san is dieting, she ate the ice cream nevertheless XD

glad Moko showed that Koenji is being pampered too much and she should at least get herself dirty once in awhile.

though i don't know why she's still need to audition. isn't her family rich already? so why bother audition other than being a star?

finally we see Ren despite in the last minutes. seems Kyouko wants to share a lot of things to Ren. she might be developing some feelings to him!!

shame Kyouko didn't finished high school. so that's why she did a lot of part time jobs at such a early age.

can't wait for the next episode!!!

Kyoko is a real unconscious genius. Seriously, getting that idea on the spot, it was really bright.
Really love moe Kyoko. Their new friendship was really refreashing for her character.

The other bitch should have been bitchslapped, just like Moko did in her act.

It's sure that the fact that she abandonned school will come back later in the story. It's probably related to when her mom abandonned her (well, that's from her perspective, it may be different).
