Now that they have a club, they have to come up with a song. I have to admit that these girls got some creative minds for their age.

Not easy for a fresh club that just started out tbh.

nice, so everyone's paired up now. Some bonding and character development. :)

I was laughing so hard at Mizuha and Mii drinking session. Also when Mii write on the board that her path to being an idol is isolated and harsh. :p

Mizuha still hasn't learned that her naming conventions are not fit for an idol club much less a group name. KiRaRe is definitely an ordinary name for an idol group but it does the job and they have a song now and my goodness I'd love to be rocking with Kae and Kasumi, it's a mini rave in Kae's room.

Don't know why but i cringed at Kae and Kasumi practice session lol that was funny ,poor mana had to read all of sayu's poems, mizuha and minori were cute too.

This was good episode they composed a song and thought of a name to their group. KiRaRe is not bad.

I sort of don't like that they turned the music production part into a joke (that isn't even funny), but ah well not enough time to do everything.
Sayu finally has some content in her character (beyond her "Mana's saviour" role), which is nice.

That poem might make a good lyrics, tho.

Finally new episode again!

Mizuha definitely needs to perform on the stage...She is like a "mother" for the other girls, reminds me of Nozomi, only without washi washi (yet???? dont think she will be that kind of pres).
I like her idea with the name of "Umekobucha Drinking Party", they would get full attention. Drinking party = alcohol = everybody is interested in it. Probabyl they wouldn't advance to the next round even but they will have FUN for sure.
Sayu is the new Mugi-chan, she also can carry a whole "Mamaya" keyboard AND a heavy bag. StronK Sayu! And how flexible she is! Sitting on a tree being a poet, holy sh*t, is that a reference to Troubadix from Asterix and Obelix?!?!?!
We have our new DJs also with Angel Kasumi and Princess Kae. Finally some good DJs.
Mii is just toooooo cute for this world! Getting drunk from tea is soooooo cute!

KiRaRe!!!

Can anyone confirm whether Satomi Arai and Maria Naganawa are voicing characters here? Clearly recognise their voices, but noone added characters to database.

I like the character development. Slowly this show is really is growing on me. Tea-bonding with Mizuha and Minori was adorable to watch. Mana and Sayu were also very adorable to watch together. Yes, I had to laugh with the Kasumi with Kae pairing.

And thus Umekobucha Drinking Party, uh I mean KiRaRe was born! :-P

Mana as a rapper, tho xD

God, I loved this episode so much. Ok, they weren't working that seriously on the song, but the result was still very satisfying. And the comedy was just gold, especially everytime they shifted to Kae and Honjo. They just looked too goofy and were totally into it hahaha. The other groups were really funny too.

Also wholesome ending, almost brought to shed a tear.

I liked their entering song, it was heartwarming.

KiRaRe is a beautiful name for the group, I like the meaning behind it. I guess this is where it truly starts!

Seeing how every character is spoiled in the op/ed long ago and this whole show has been one boring predictable copy&paste_young_girls@ idol_school_show so far, it's barely a 5/10 for me.

this episode is significantly different from the original source:

they skipped the preliminaries entirely (or more precisely, they made the semifinal in the novel their first live in the contest in the anime)
they skipped an important scene in the chapter involving Mana and her reason for transferring schools. this is a result of skipping the preliminaries scene, which not only gave a more background on Mana and her sister, but also reinforced the bond that Mana have with Sayu. the bond started in chapter 2 during the maid scene, which they also skipped.

they overloaded the pairings with comedy, which is not present in the novel. in particular, Mizuha was comforting and giving Minori a pat on the back for working so hard as a solo idol with not one soul helping her all that time. Minori had to gather her courage to stand in the middle of Akihabara, make her stage and clothes herself and make a solo performance using her made up "Mii" character. she did her best working all alone all that time, slowly working her way towards getting people to remember her (at first, nobody bat an eye on her performance). she was lonely and finally belongs to a group now, which means a lot to her. it is worth mentioning that Mii only went solo as an absolute last resort, after failing the entrance exam to the main branch (a top school for idols) and since she wasnt able to recruit other girls to her club despite several days trying. she still wanted to be an idol (as shown in the previous episode), so she chose to go solo. it was literally her only choice at the time. in the anime, that entire scene is turned into "Mizuha and Mii drink a lot of tea". there are other changes here and there, such as adding comedy in the Mana and Sayu scene. needless to say, they went overboard with the other pairing too.

if the adaptation was more close to the novel, there would be enough material for 2 seasons, but it seems like they are trying to trim the 3 volumes down to 1 season (this episode roughly corresponds to the last chapter of volume 1)

if you check the opening, you will notice that Sayu doesnt seem to have a happy relationship with her mother, and this was also strongly hinted in the chapter-equivalent to this episode.
maybe they will reveal the reason next episode (or possibly on episode 7)

there was an important scene involving Mana and her sister but they skippep that scene altogether.

Still amazed how Mii was able to produce all by herself. Mii is a one-girl production group, even if her practice instrument is a child's toy. xD

lolz the 4 girls are useless meanwhile Mii & Angel got very busy jamming! hahah!
But at least at the end of the day, all 6 girls made something worthwhile and oh! they now have a group name! KiRaRe. and i think their best song is still the ED...not unless i hear all of their produced songs since 2017...
4/5.

Very funny episode. The comedy was pure gold.

I loved all the three pairings, especially Kasumi and Kae when they were jamming together. Mizuha and Mii drinking tea together was adorable. Mana reading Sayu's poems was also fun.
