22/7

Miu Takigawa views the world from behind the safety of her bangs, content with peacefully passing unnoticed through life. Reserved and timid, Miu struggles to converse with or even smile at customers when at her part time job, but she works tirelessly to support her mother and precious little sister, Haru. It is a shock when a letter arrives from the entertainment company GIP, announcing that she has been chosen as a candidate for their new project.

Miu decides to accept the invitation and heads to the meeting spot where the eccentric ensemble of other candidates filter in, all summoned by their own letters. Not long after, the girls are escorted by a manager to a luxurious secret facility, where it is explained that they must follow the mysterious directions of "The Wall," whose orders are absolute.

The 24th of December, 2016, will see the birth of idols like no other; on that day, the group 22/7 will debut, whether or not Miu and the other members are ready to take the stage.

This might be the best Idol anime ever.
Every episode is special and every episode we get to learn more about the main characters.
At first I didn't like "The Wall" but the more i watched the more i started accepting him.
The Opening: This opening music is amazing, The first time i heard it, I fell in Love with it, now it sits on my spotify (:
The more we learn about the characters backstories or even the present of them, we fall in love and can't stop thinking about them.
Not everything is sunshine and rainbows, most of the characters have a sad backstory and I think it ... is exactly what we need. Talking about your past can be scary, but without the sad past things couldnt have turned out like this. I Loved having to watch them from 0 - famous, tough there was one thing that stopped me from giving this anime a 10/10, in my opinion everything was going too fast. Every episode there was a new thing they had to do because of "Mr. Wall", and because of that reason it made the characters feel like they were always in a rush. I would have liked more Slice of Life in this anime, but I know that wasn't the animes purpose.
We gotta talk about Gouda. He is perfect: hes funny, smart, tall, handsome, and i can see that he can feel how others feel, he is amazing.
I feel like this anime is underrated, and hasn't gotten all the fame it deserves, It's a must-watch.
Now ill give my out of 10 ratings:
Story: 7/10 Music: 10/10 Comedy: 7/10 Art: 7/10 Voice acting: 9/10 Animation: 7/10
In total I give this anime a 9/10,. <3

Mixed Feelings

The whole series was fair..
There were some places I found it boring..
The background of the characters had nothing to do with their selection.
The episodes of every character was boring..
The only thing I enjoyed were the songs and the music..
Else was fine.. the animators did a fine job.. but I hoped the character designs to be a bit more vibrant and a bit of bright background..
The character development of the wall is bad..
And what is the working system of the wall? An AI or Magic?


Listen to their songs from their albums made me watch this anime.. but compared to the songs I am a ... bit disappointed in this anime.. everything else is fine..

22/7 I don't even know what to say.

The characters are in fact well developed, but that doesn't mean anything for the story itself. The character being developed or not, the story would kept going in the same way. It's like those games who claim that your actions have consequences, but even if you choose another way the outcome is the same.

They even got a supernatural wall (??????).

I dislike the 3D animation in the performances, musics are ok, the animation on the rest of the anime it's good. But I didn't enjoy it at all and I don't recommend it.
