In 2007 a new era of CGDCT (Cute girls doing cute things) began with “Lucky☆Star”. One of the best studios of all time was involved in this work: Kyoto Animation. 13 years later, Studio Gokumi and AXsiZ try to create something similar with "Maesetsu! Opening Act", but unfortunately this work does not quite create the "WOW" effect. Why am I comparing these two? You will see more about this below.

Have you ever heard of the Japanese word “Owarai”? Before I came into contact with this anime, this term didn't mean anything to me either. Owarai is a traditional Japanese comedy duo who perform in front ...

Here and on other resources I read that this anime is not very good, because the jokes are not funny. I can say it is true. But! Even the characters say the same. And it is normal, because girls still study the comedian profession..

I think the error of this anime is in the positioning. It is not a Comedy. It is Slice of Life only. And as "Slice of Life" it deserves attention.

1. Story.
What is a story of a Slice of Life?
Girls eat, discuss school/work, sometimes work (train for performances and perform on stage), sometimes travel, sometimes joke. It's classic. Favorite classic.

2. Animation.
Sweetheart, ...

I'll keep this shorter than I usually would (partly because I didn't actually plan to write a review for this) and just get to the point. The premise of this show is girls doing comedy, and trying to make it to the big stage. With that being said, you may be expecting absolute comedy gold to come out of this, but unfortunately, that won't come. I assume that would disappoint many, so it's best that you know that you would be as well if that's what you were expecting. In reality, this is more of a slice of life (the cute girls doing cute things ...

The proposal of this anime is interesting, but something quite foreign to us, since I doubt that there are many people who enjoy Japanese humor/Japanese comedians in this part of the world, and this is the main argument of this anime. While it's not a work on the same level as Lucky Star, it's not a bad anime, since Yoshimizu Kagami doesn't create bad works. Also I noted that the director in charge of this anime is the same as Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear, High School Fleet and who has worked for other anime such as Endro~ and Toji no Miko, in fact he directed ...

This just proves that people only see one form of comedy. Me on the other hand have have visited these places and i understand what they are doing. once you get its not that hard. Just shows how one minded people are. I ran into this show from some ad when watch Boruto and i just have to say its amazing.. I know we wont get another season one can only hope :/
There is so much info we have not gotten and soo much back story for characters it would be a shame if they dont keep going on.
After this show i ...

This show is not very good. BUT, the train doors closing joke has become an inside joke for me and some friends, and is amazing. Their gimmick as a comedy group is that they are going to build an audience from inside jokes that become funny on repeat, which means the jokes are all very unfunny upon first watch, by my god, is "The train door is closing" *brshshsh* the funniest shit ever after sitting on it for like two years.

Um, I don't really know what else to put here. I think the art style is neat and cute. The characters are fine.

Compared to other ...
