Well good bye Cecil. He was fun to watch imo for being a troll fun guy.

One thing I did like is how Nanami tries really hard with the piano which turned out to be same tune as the ED song. So president arrives in some boat. Lmao, why am I not surprised. I guess the team deserve the Uta Pri reward nomination this episode. I mean, they worked really hard.

Oh wait, he's back. Good to see him back actually cause series feels different without him. HELLO new Starish.

Uhmmm Cecil's departure was extremely short-lived.
What was the point of the flashbacks if he was going to come back 10 minutes later?
He freaking parachuted out of the sky. what.

Always good to see Shining.
Nice to see him going on a psychedelic acid trip again. He was bouncing off hearts and sparkles.
I'm laughing because the ridiculous-ness level of this episode is too damn high!

HEAVENS at the end.

wow just wow

Wasn't expecting Cecil to come back so soon. The new STARISH + Maji Love 2000% has been approved by Saotome. But who are these new rivals Heavens??? Next is Tokiya !!!?? Unless they forget him and focus on Heavens group?? My god one of the Heavens group looks like Midorima from Kuroko no Basuke.

Edit: Found HEAVENS character names on Tumblr

I thought letter was just a joke from Camus
I won't miss Cecil, I only think he's funny sometime
then he returned by jumping out of an airplane with a megaphone -.-'

When is Tokiya's episode coming?

Nanami's composing was pretty cool, I like the piano version
so Syo is the one who came with the 'zenroku zenkai' part, lol
even though irl they didn't write the lyrics and lot of idols don't do that

at least it's better than asking the goddess of music for lyrics like Cecil did XD
and it seems that the other STARISH members write their own lyrics =3

the song was pretty funny, it went just like maji love 1000%
hearts came bouncing, this time also the senpai came and Ringo and Hyuuga-sensei were there, it looked pretty funny

Heavens looks pretty cool but they are just a 3 member unit
but wtf where did those lights come from !!

Shining Saotome never gets old. Never. He's just the best old man to ever exist.

Wow, what happened to the Tokiya episode? Well considering how they DID base the entirety of the last season around Tokiya's issues I'm not surprise they didn't focus too much on him this time around.

Ughhhh Ittoki why are you so damn cute, just stop.

I was expecting Cecil to be back at the end of the series...but ok
No "new" song.
Why does Heavens have a star as their "a". Can you be more creative lol And are we going to hear a song from them??
and what about Quartet Night?? where is their song

As you can see i continue to watch this b/c of the voice actors and the songs...though i still like the series.

Wow, Cecil's already gone (to get King's approval to be in ST☆RISH, which just only showed a tiny bit). Everyone feeling lonely without Cecil.

Wow @ the piano ver. of Magi Love 2000%. Everyone believing that he will be back, and I do think so, too, or the ED live won't make sense. Shining's entry is always loll. Shining not approving at first again. lol @ Cecil's sudden appearance! Scene needing Shining's approval again (like season 1). lol @ the scene getting everyone else into a sparkling world (lol). And HE☆VENS is the opponent

I hope Tokiya's ep.'s next before the competition or after. Because the order of the character song CD is like that (after Cecil).

They missed the Tokiya epiosde -.- I was so looking forward to that! I know the first season gave a huge chunk to him, but still I was looking forward to see a bit more of his new side.
I loved seeing Nanami play the 2000% song on the piano, it sounded very nice.
But geez, a helicopter? So very original

Slow episode, and too many flashbacks. At least the Cecil drama only took two episodes unlike the Tokiya shit from the first season.

Exactly. I was reading through the discussion and found it ridiculous that many thought it was gonna be Quartet Night -.- Though, I do want a Tokiya episode! Today's episode had Shining's "enlightenment".

They could've introduced a plot twist to set it up as Starish vs Quartet Night

something like (and this is a totally random idea)-- as a last step the "newbie group" needs to beat a pro group in order to claim the UtaPri awards.

Instead they throw in Heavens...which is an anime original thing/cast as far as I'm aware....

[It's like...why do they not expand on the 4 new-to-anime characters that were introduced in the beginning and instead throw in more new characters?] Is what I'm sure several of us might be thinking.

I personally don't mind that much either way....just find it a minor pity anime-watchers won't see more of Quartet Night from the direction this is going...

i agree. there are just four episodes left and they have rarely shown anything of the new characters yet. i don't really get this. when they were introduced as senpais i thought they would have much more screentime. but unfortunately they're pretty... useless until now. and now they even throw in three more characters?

QN are actually their rivals canonly via games. Anime canon I suppose it's HEAVENS? Maybe both?


Also guys, if you recall, most of season one revolved around nothing BUT Tokiya. He was the most developed through the series with Hayato and the sort. I'm sure he'll get an episode regardless, but with how last week ended, they NEEDED to make Cecil's a sort of two parter and have him officially join Starish via anime. It would be too weird to just have Tokiya right after Cecil left and not resolve that issue first.

Cecil doesn't 'ruin' anything. He's a part of Starish, and was since the very beginning. He's what makes up the A in StArish. He's the star in the middle where the A is, aka the secret character in the first game and then a regular onward. No Cecil AIJIMA, no StArish. Unless you'd rather call it Strish.

Strrrrish.

No.

Unless...unless they plan to make a third season and cover the senpais there? Is that it?

Am I the only one here who loves Cecil? xD

Anyway, I guess it was obvious that Cecil would come back, because the anime works its way to the ED live (as in season 1), so Cecil needs to be in Starish, but I imagined that he would go to Agnapolis, the rest of the Starish would find out about it and follow him there (like they followed Haruka in season 1), they'd do a drama in the castle, somehow convince the king to listen to them, they'd sing Cecil's song and king would react similarily to Shining and realise Cecil needs to be in Starish. XD I know, it sounds equally lame as what happened in the episode, but at least we'd see the king and bits of Agnapolis. :P

Shining: Alright you-tachi, I got a new name for your group!!! ... From now on you will be known as... the NEW Starish!!
Did anyone else find that kinda lame and non-creative? xD

I wouldn't be surprised if Tokiya didn't get the episode. It feels to me that individual episodes served 2 purposes: to develop each guy's relationship with Haruka (=fanservice for fangirls), and by far Tokiya seems least interested in her (praise the Lord!), and to make them sing their songs, so Tokiya could just sing it as a part of a regular episode and it'd be fine. xD But I agree, it'd be lovely to see more of his new side, so BRING ON TOKIYA EPISODE!

That's exactly why I'm watching this. Makes me feel like on an acid trip. Can't forget Cecil with a parachute and a megaphone and the President (Wakamoto Norio, you Sir are freaking genius) together with the transsexual sensei floating in the sky with rainbows and stars around them. Why the hell not.
On the more serious note, I don't really think Cecil's voice makes the song so special... his singing voice is actually the least recognizable from all the seiyuus.
A new boyband? Seriously?
Maybe they're already planning a third season.

Daisuki Cecil!! Comon you guys, how many atention did Cecil had in first season?

I think, he's great chara, he learns from mystakes ... some fans just don't ship him, because he said some unreasonable things ... but he did apologize.

Well, i hope senpais and Ichinose-san do get their epi ...and i think they will get in last episode, ... but we don't make the script so ... we can hope for the best.

I think eps so far are interessting and new rivals ho ho ho ... quite good =)

When I saw Hevens I was like "YAAY MORE BISHIES"

Shining's reaction to the song was hilarious, just like what happened in the first season, except this time it included their teachers and senpais

I never liked Cecil so the flashback parts were a bore to me, and then he comes back, like really what was the point of focusing ten minutes of the episode on his sudden departure

WHERE IS MY TOKIYA'S EPISODES????? Hopefully that's next week, then they focus on the UtaPri award

That awkward moment when you're singing with your friends outside and EVERYONE literally comes out to listen and get sucked in a sparkling vortex with an abundance of stars,hearts, and rainbows floating everywhere.

If this ever happens and you notice that half of all these people are on their knees when you finish singing, assume it's because you all have perfect harmony and they were literally blown away. Trust me on this one.
