| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Ah so they got upgraded outfits. Cute~ especially the hat. The finale was one of the better episodes imo. Go NANYAKO. The final performance was alright I suppose, wasn't groundbreaking though. I also heard season 2 was announced on a twitter page a few weeks ago. |
 |
| So is the 13th episode we got a preview for at the end that one bundled with volume 1 of the DVD or was it incorrectly listed as only 12 episodes on here? |
animefan8800 said: So is the 13th episode we got a preview for at the end that one bundled with volume 1 of the DVD or was it incorrectly listed as only 12 episodes on here? Yeah.. I'm kinda confused as well. |
| Right after the credits, they mentioned "Episode 13", with the English title in the subs of "We tried to give a tour of Nagarekawa". The Japanese title was shown as 「流川、案内してみた。」. In fact, this is an OVA. I am fairly certain that it won't be broadcasted next week. Instead, Volume 1 of the Blu-ray/DVD goes on sale on September 24th. So, if you want to watch "Episode 13" then you'd better rush out to the store and buy the Blu-ray/DVD so that you can watch this 25-minute OVA. And Volume 1 includes Episode 1 as well. See here for the webpage, in Japanese, which was the source of my information: http://www.tbs.co.jp/anime/locodol/disc/ animefan8800 asked: So is the 13th episode we got a preview for at the end that one bundled with volume 1 of the DVD? Yes. It is the 25-minute OVA bundled with Volume 1 of the BD/DVD. animefan8800 also asked: Was it incorrectly listed as only 12 episodes on here? It was correct. There are 12 episodes. If you look at the official website it also clearly indicates that there are episodes numbered from 1 to 12. The OVA is something different. The official website specifically calls it an "OVA". |

| Ok then, well this was an enjoyable enough little series. I'd give it a solid 7/10. I've read it already got a second season confirmation a couple weeks ago, but I'm wondering why there's no second season entry on here yet if that's really true. Regardless, if there ever were to be a second season the only thing I really wouldn't want to see is a story turn where another idol group tries to take Yukari away and drama unfolds from there. That'd annoy me to no end. Her unwavering devotion to Nanako and the growth of their relationship was likely my favorite thing about the series, no need to rock that boat. Other than that I'd certainly welcome a second season. |
| This was a good show to watch. I found myself enjoying it to the end. |
 |
| I have been making a habit of following the official Twitter for the series. As far as I can tell, the reports that there is going to be a second season began with this tweet here: https://twitter.com/ichijinsha_info/status/499972117421510656 and the same tweet is also shown here: http://pic.twitter.com/sy1LfeMneF Sorry to say so, but to me it looks like the producers were just joking. It doesn't say "There will be a second season" or anything like that. It simply says "Second season." And then there is the photo of the computer screen with Uogokoro-kun with the words "2nd Season" in English. The words "それ行け！" mean "Go for it!" or "Go! go! go!". So the tweet is simply expressing the producers' high hopes for a second season. |

| I figured as much, and I was fine either way like I said. The ending we got was satisfying enough. The OVA can just be the dessert so to speak of the meal. :D |
okanagan said: Yes, this tweet does come from the official source. But it looks like somebody was having some fun. brr... sounds dangerous to do this. Anyway, I guess Locodol is enjoyable. I love the Nagaregawa Girls' progress throughout the story and the cute moe moments between the two. |
| nice ep goodbye nanyako i will see you in 2nd season nanyako is best girl |
| Nanyako for President <3 |
| Gosh, I'm so sad this show is over. It was so easygoing and cute and heartwarming, I enjoyed it so much. <3 This episode was amazing. I love the outfits (I totally need a partner to cosplay this with me :D) and the new song is so catchy! Great way to end this show. x3 |
| I knew Awa Awa Girls gonna win this is usually like this when MCs fight with already popular group. Their new song was pretty cool :D Oh, so there will be 13 episode next week? :) |
| yep it was a pretty predictable ending, and still pretty nice not bad, nor an outstanding show... and even though it is not one of the most memorable shows, it's sure fun to watch |
 |
Nice animation |
 |
| This was a very nice finale. The song was pretty good and had an epic quality for a pop song. I liked the accompanying animation of Yukari and Nanyako singing and dancing and the flashbacks of moments from their lives. I almost gave an involuntary cheer at the end. For me, this series ranks a solid 7 or 8 out of 10. The whole was greater than the sum of its cliched parts. If a second season does come to pass, I'll certainly watch it. |
| good cap, Nanyako ;-; ♥ |
 |
| I struggled with much of the first half of the season, but it seemed to do well in the end, and I thought that was a good last episode. I'm also thinking Yukari had *two* motives in mind when she took Nyanako to the roof to calm her down ;) |
 |
| Great ending to a very nice anime. The song was nice, as were their costimes. That nanaXYukari scene on the roof was cute <3 Can't wait for Season 2 |
| I want Rambo in a mecha-suit with a laser-chainsaw gun that fires nuclear warheads, fighting the love-child of Predator, Alien, a group of Bangladeshi terrorists, and Satan. (Actually that would be a pretty sick show) - StopDropAndBowl |
| Finally, outfits and a likeable song. It took them long enough, but I guess that's the appeal they were going for. Their song performance was very well animated. 6/10 for the season. |
 |
| I loved this show way too much ;_;. It might actually be my AOTS. |
 |
| I really liked this <3 Nanyako! |
| Very well done anime One of my most favourite anime of the season Also, Why won't they make out?? |
| "Burn the heretics" |
| Surprise of the season, loved it every step of the way. S2 pls with yuri love. |
 |
| This anime was kinda like a break from the rest of the animes this season. Nagarekawa Girls new favorite idol group. |
 |
| Something half-joking: I think this should get a Shoujo Ai tag. |
| All hail Great Firewall of China. |
| Oh man those outfits were cute. Dat song was good :D LOL Nanako's uncle. Elvis imitation? Nice finale. Better than some other shows this season. I'll be giving it a 6/10. |
 |
| I hope this gets a second season, this time about them becoming a couple. Let's call it: Ordinary Schoolgirls Tried Being a Couple. |

| So that's the end huh went into this with zero expectations and while the early half of the season was quite boring it did pick up near the end not to mention having a lot of cute moments along the way,shame their only good song for me was the finale 6/10 for the first half,7/10 for the rest would not mind watching another season,:) locodol keeping the yuri dream alive!...sorta |
 |
| Pretty much love the ending in the series. Locodol is basically a good comedy slice of life show with a relaxing feel to it. There is not a single character I hate in here which everyone is likable and enjoyable. Animation, and art were pretty much standard but the music was pretty good. Although there are some episodes that are boring, and the jokes sometimes felt flat. I also wish that the supporting characters have character development in them. Yukari and Nanako are really great at there performance but kind of bummed out that they lost. 8/10 so there is another episode coming out, though I would mind having this another season. |
| I thought that was a very nice ending to the season! I had a feeling they wouldn't win, but what can you expect when you are going against an already established idol group! Since they already confirmed that there is going to be a season 2, I will happily await the OVA and the start of the second season! Definitely an 8/10 for this season! |
| So glad that I'm not a huge manga reader, because the manga readers WHINE WAY TOO MUCH and have to RUIN every adapted anime for the ANIME ONLY WATCHERS! |
 Guess we'll just have to be satisfied with this. Doujin artists, work your magic! Solid season. It's an idol show but it distanced itself from the glitz and glamour that is commonly associated with the word "idol." Instead of big productions and flashy song and dance numbers, we were treated to a homely, laid-back and relaxing feel (just like Nagarekawa City!) every episode. I think that's the aim of the show anyway, and it did it well. Really well :D Uogokoro.......KUN! I love that song XD! 8 Nanyakos/10. I hope the staff weren't trolling about the second season. |
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |
| I gotta say when this anime was first announced almost a year ago? I really wanted to watch it to hear the beautiful singing voice of Misawa Sachika. It felt soo glorious to finally get a song :D Yay for happy ending! I will admit that my score is a bit biased because i'm a huge Sachika fan and StylipS fan but yeah.. NANYAKO !!!!!! also did the beginning of the nagarekawa girls song song sound like one of the code geass opening songs beginning? 8/10 :D Will definitely watch second season if there is one. Hopefully there is more singing |
 |
| I guess Episode 13 will be an OVA. The songs were catchy and Nanako cuteness.. I mean Nanyako was adorable. It had funny moments and I enjoyed every episode. Sad to see this is my first anime of the summer season will be the first one to end in my summer list. Definitely want second season! So we'll have to bond together and buy the DVDs! 7.5/10 or maybe 8/10 :D |
 |
| The new song is much nicer than I thought!! Well it's predictable that they didn't win (that's for s2) but I think it's very fitting that they end the series by singing the Nagarekawa song. They are locodols and as such going back to their root is the most important thing. A simple and relaxing yet strangely effective idol anime that I think is even better than the "real" idol anime like Love Live and maybe WUG. Yukari and Nanyako has such a great chemistry that's complimented by the Uogoro-kun girls nicely. While it's not overly funny, it always has at least one hilarious line every episode. Looking forward to season 2. For now it's 7/10 |
 |
| SO MUCH MOE!! That hug, that song, that yuri reference looking thing where I thought of Kannazuki no Miko, that WILD UNCLE ELVIS, wow great episode! Most of the series as it moved along was a bit bland but this wrapped up pretty nicely. Looking forward to the OVA/Season 2/Both! |
| Best cute show this season. Nanyako is so cute. |
ＲＥＡＬＩＴＹ ＩＳ Ａ ＣＲＡＰＰＹ ＧＡＭＥ  |
| Its sad that its over. Even thought they didn't won it was okay. I had fun watching this show. A 2nd season would sure be welcome with open arms. |
| I think it's normal if their Concert wasn't ground breaking enough, I mean they are newbies. To be honest, I'm kinda disappointed with this episode. A lot of unrealistic moments, like how everyone waited for Yukari and Nana to show up. And Nanako's shuttering is getting annoying. What I like about this anime is this isn't some normal Idol anime, but this episode kinda ruined it. And what's with Nanako's friends going on stage with her. xD But oh well, I honestly enjoyed the more than most Idol anime. It's more "real" and not overacting about "Idol", except for this episode though. Well, overall I enjoyed watching this episode, song is really nice :D 6/10 for this episode, 7/10 overall. |

| Needed more yuri overall, but the hug in this episode was nice enough. Locodol was a passionate, earnest show. I enjoyed it for the most part. |
| Really like the new song Thank you for entertaining me every week ~ I kinda hope for second season 7.5/10 |
| KYAAAAAAAAA~ I want more! :( There was a second season on MAL a month ago or so, why isn't it there now? FUUUUU I really want more of this, it was interesting, probably the best idol series I've ever watched. Also all their songs are good :x They're entertaining. |
| Best episode by far. The Nagarekawa Girls song is so much better than I'd expected. That roof scene though, just completes this show. I guess I could support Yukari x Nanyako :D Zankyo no Terror, Akame ga Kill and Tokyo ESP all ended up being disappointments this season for me. Who'd have thought I could give this show a good solid 7/10?! Look forward to Season 2 vincentboy said: ... Is there any romance going in this anime?.. There isn't! |
