| Pregnant Idol, she fucked around and found out. |
YareyareSenpaii said: It's NOT isekai, it's the same world.  Why are they doing us like this, the fact that they didn't put an Isekai tag is just slanderous towards the Isekai fandom, they don't want us eating good, but has that ever stopped us, NO, we are claiming it ''Oshi No Ko'' is an ISEKAI, there I said it. I'm not an Idol fan and I won't even pretend to be one, the fact that I even got to save this anime to my PTW is a testament to the high regard I hold for Manga Peepers, and may the manga gods bless their souls because their suggestions are top notch.Lo and behold and much to my surprise this wasn't a typical Idol show. What awaited me was a truly captivating anime with a unique and engaging story. One aspect of the anime that really sets it apart is its perfect balance of humor and emotional depth, balanced in a way that the anime does not feel lopsided (e.g too much humor so much that it overshadows the character development). The animation is pure ecstasy with vibrant colors and dynamic fluid motion (e.g especially the Idol dances) which is indicative of the passion and dedication to the craft we all love to see. But maybe I'm being presumptuous, after all, it's the season premiere. however, I'd be lying if I said I'm not excited for the next episode, hopefully, I pray we keep eating good because if we ain't this was one helluva clickbait. So in conclusion I highly recommend this ISEKAI. Tensei/reincarnation can happen with or without isekai. |
| Wat a fucking plot twist. I'm sad and happy guys. |

| It's been a while since I enjoy a 1st episode. what a solid Ep. It has a lot to digest and it ended just in the right point to start the series. looking forward to this show |

Was being sarcastic, tell you what though I honestly didn't know about the whole Tensei situation, um fr calculating life rn, got comfortable with the idea that reincarnation only happens in another world, but um sure I've come across the word somewhere.

| Holy crap. This prologue totally changed my view on this show. I came in expecting a normal idol life in the entertainment industry but wow. That was quite a turn of events. I'm speechless and in shock. |

| Been reading the manga since, well, what was covered in the episode was new. Absolutely destroyed me, bravo. The rest of the anime could be literal dogshit but this one episode is worth all the wait for me. RIP Ai, I still miss you, and always will. |
| It's not bad, but I'm not actually all that interested in what's going to happen at this point. It's okay and I'll still watch it all the way through, but I really don't care about the revenge on who sent Ai's information part. I do hope all goes well for Sarina/Ruby though now that she's able to live another life like this. |
| Against my better judgement from earlier, I ended up watching the entire episode. Wish I could get that hour back, but I also felt I shouldn't totally trash the show without watching the entire production despite really disliking those first eighteen or so minutes from earlier my viewing. My feelings after watching the entire thing are still the same. I really dislike that they made the protag such a creep. His behavior in the into is awful and makes him very unlikable. In general I dislike how weird many of the characters behave. Ai gets stabbed in the stomach and she goes into a lengthy monologue about lies and turning lies into truth all while she's bleeding to death and the killer is standing in front of her and her son with a knife. Dude is still an unhinged threat! Who gets stabbed in the stomach and does that while they and their children are in danger, rather than go into flight or fight mode? It's ridiculous. The stuff after her death is at least sort of cool. The scene where Aquamarine (jfc cringe) figures out that Ai had a small circle around her and is able to narrow down the list of possible suspects all while the suspenseful music hits that was pretty good. I got some Lelouch vibes from the protag there. So, the concept is good, I just feel the execution was awful. It shouldn't have been centered around an idol and her obsessive fans. |
| One those shows that utterly screams "do not judge a book by it's cover". Even though it was idol, the character design had piqued my interest, the MAL show description even more so. Just wish that some unthoughtful Twitter commentator hadn't needlessly spoiled a key plot point of the episode. Luckily, it was so well done that the impact and emotions of the scene were not dulled in anyway. Description had shown that this was going to be some sort of dark/mystery show...but the plot took a much darker turn than I'd initially been expecting. Learning that it's by the same author as Kaguya-sama I am eagerly looking forward to watching this show this season. Just need to be prepared for any further heartbreaks :'( |

| Hands down the best opener for an anime I've ever seen in my life. Gave the original Haruhi anime a run for it's money. |

| Frankly, one of the best premises in anime. The story doesn't look too promising, it's a simple "who done it" plot - however, the production, animation and OST are simply perfect. Though I wish the shock factor wasn't that early on. The viewer isn't really that connected to Ai who, supposedly, the entire plot revolves around the murder of and vengeance. |
