THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Whoa, intense start so far. I wasn't expecting that, the first few seconds anyways.

Idol spotted~
Manager spotted~

Not bad so far I guess. Looking forward to more. The ED song is kinda catchy.

The ED 3DCG is really something.
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

Tell me about it, she looks like a normal figure but that movement is very close to lifelike. This is good and fitting CG.

I'm liking the kuudere nature of Miss Monchrome herself and Mana melted my heart.

Yeah, I loved it. The show itself has good potential despite the short runtime.

Anyone else thought Monochrome voice sounded like links helper in skyward sword? A great start the ending reminded one of those madoka magica parodies.

It is available worldwide, except Japan and Taiwan, on Crunchyroll.

The character descriptions won me over. The description for the "Super Idol" KIKUKO is a hoot, if you know anything about Kikuko Innoe.

The ED is fantastic! The spot where she does the "Shoot at the heart" thing on the line "Kimi Dai Suki" it is deadly!

Not bad, but the whole time I kept thinking replace Monochrome with Miku, and you'd have Vocaloid: The Animation.

I think that it's the best thing about the show so far. It looked like I was watching an actual doll dance in front of me and the song was catchy too.

As for the episode itself, it's okay, but you can definitely see the potential. Will continue to watch this one.

Chances are Mana will return later in the series, those types of females tend to return to bring more misery.

I'm not sure what is worse, how badly it was written or this horrible CG model animation in the ED. I had no idea what to expect from this, but now I know I should have expected something mediocre at best.

Monochrome sure is clueless to just loan that girl that much money, now she's working in the convenience store, I wonder how she is going to plan on becoming an idol. But that was pretty interesting for 5 min, I'll keep a look out on this.

That, or perhaps it will follow one of a few other formulas and they will end up becoming friends or come to an understanding -- though I agree and do expect that she'll pull something similar later on.

A lot better than I expected possible from a 5 min. episode. Regardless, I won't feel like any time was wasted with such little time investment if it turns out to suck -- but I actually have some decent expectations, now...

Miss Monochrome and her Rumba seams to be a bit of a nod to Hanekawa and her Rumba form monogatari second season episode 1

any way seams kind of funny so fare shame its not a bit longer
Hanekawa tried to stretch herself to the limits, after that her facial expression became resolute, and in that state she inserted her hands inside the hem of the pleated skirt of her uniform.

I thought she would once again flip up her skirt for me, but, no matter what, Hanekawa didn't do such a thing devoid of logical connection.

Instead she took off her panties.

And thus the castle went into foreclosure

Hardest I've laughed at a 5min anime since the first season of Senyuu.

That was pretty funny. The 3DCG ED was way too uncanny valley for me though. I can't handle things like it, which is why I hate MMD.

Not a bad for a 5 minute episode. It's really amusing. And I like that dance at the end too.

How I hate people who do reviews based on just the 1st episode.
