They didn't even use 3D for the idol sequence. This show really goes the extra mile. That performance was slick. Same goes for Aqua's dance lol. I never knew that color of the stick had any meaning. I expanded my knowledge in Idol-ology.

Kana:"Are you running away?"
Aqua:"Run? Who's Running? Running Where? And why?"

Btw, Ruby should get more character development. So far... we had no inner monologue from her, in what she really thinks.

I always that first stage performance by the new B-Komachi would've have looked better if animated when I first read it in the manga, specially Aqua's wotagei.
And I was right. It really was a treat to watch as if I was watching real life idols. Aqua was just hilarious as well.

Overall, this whole 1st season for me was just phenomenal. Even if I already knew what was going to happen, the anime adaptation gave and added value so to speak, and made me enjoy the story more. Doga Kobo really did a good job on this, but then again even if Doga Kobo was only doing CGDCT stuff, you can see their animation quality is often above average.

Also, did you guys see those crows/ravens looking over Ruby and Aqua at 20:31?


This finale is great, but I can't still move on with what's happening in Chapter 122 of the manga xD

Tokyo Blade Arc next!

The story kind of remainds me of Perfect blue with life in the entertainment industry altough they have many diffrenses. Anime is perfect, animation Is stunning, it chosed to use 2D animation even when performance Is on screen.

I'm totally captivated by Ruby's idol magic!! I like Mem's character too but purely from the entertainer perspective I think I gotta hand the oshi title to the dream-chasing reincarnatee.

Overall the production value of this show has been absolutely insane in the best way possible: a lot of love has been put into bringing not only the performance sequences but also everything in-between to life and I doubt they'll brake down for the upcoming arc. I'm so excited to see the stage play animated!

Like when an Idol performance uses so many camera angles and movements you end up feeling kinda dizzy. Anyways, still a good presentation despite the two songs being rather meh.

Pretty average first season overall. Episode 1 was very solid and production values were undoubtedly impressive but the absurd amount of different genres this show tried to cover at once (Idols, Reincarnation, Showbiz, Comedy, Drama, Thriller, Mystery, Romance, Revenge Story, etc.) only made the whole experience feel less and less interesting to follow.

That said, Season 2 was announced to no one's surprise and I can only hope it finally focus on the main storyline that is finding Ai's true murderer. Because I seriously couldn't care less about this stupid love triangle involving Kana and Akane...

6/10 - Miyako, best MILF.

Done watching. This anime is good. If there is something i dont like, its the fact that they nerfed Ruby - like a lot!! to shift the focus on the new characters. To the point that I thought, oh here's Ruby. just there existing to occupy the frame and having no impact on everyone. This is why i kinda like the short window where Ruby emulates Ai during the concert and replayed it multiple times. Hope she gets treated better in Season 2 and with a good arc at that.

Yeah I mean this show was great. You could tell there was a lot of care put into making this a good product all the way through. Good balance of entertainment industry shenanigans/the dark side and everything in between with the murder mystery plot. Of course Aqua's character in this upcoming play is supposed to be in a love triangle of sorts with the characters played by Akane and Kana. Meanwhile all Aqua is thinking about is getting revenge of looking out for Ruby lol.

Umm this is it then?

Overall it's quite a refreshing show but I do wish there'd be a bit more thriller/tension on top of simply slice of life and romance. To be honest, the main plotline hasn't progressed all that much during Episodes 2-11

Still... can't wait for S2

My Star started very engaging in its first 7 episodes, with his mystery aspects and the idol world. 

But from episode 8 till the ending, I did start to get bored. 

But cant wait for season 2 either way.

Great episode and stopping point for this season. So the new B-Komachi's performance was a success, I thought they were gonna take an L for some reason idk why, maybe I'm a hater. There was a moment during the performance that is panned to crowd for a second and there a single person, red head chick, who wasn't moving a muscle. Seemed odd and it is probably a plot point. 

But anyways moving forward, it seems the love triangle is solidified. Akane deserves to win because I don't like tsunderes. That about wraps it up, I hope season 2 comes soon

8.5/10

That was a beautiful performance by the new B-Komachi to end the season, and it was hilarious to see Aqua dancing with his ever-stoic expression. I hope S2 arrives before too long, though I'll try to catch up with the manga before then.

I am very pleased at how it shows the sides of showbiz, and as someone who enjoys a very good, POWERFUL revenge story along with comedic moments inserted, I'm willing to wait for more.

Welp that was amazing, and to be the last episode too aw man. At least we're getting a second szn, kinda knew that would happen. Almost forgot this episode would be the last, the manga is currently at a climax and it overtook my thoughts lol.

Aqua was the MVP during new B-Komachi's first concert lmao. He was going at it with a straight face but then found himself a little shook with their performance xD

It was a great last episode I have to say. I can't wait to hear a new OP and ED for the next szn if they make one, this szn had banger music.

Never ending plan to watch list...

I watched this completely blind and here I find that it’s rated at almost a 9.00????

I have it at a solid 7/10 so I thought it was good, but I did not find it anywhere near consistent enough to be a masterpiece. Animation would be great (maybe even a little TOO overboard) for short important scenes and then stilted as hell for conversation scenes after.

Was really looking forward for new work from Akasaka Aka and the manga delivered so was happy for it to be animated. The adaptation also delivered, really like some scenes being animated and the VA's did a great job.
Solid 9/10 and waiting for continuation, rooting for Akane =/

pretty damn good overall. the performance was nice and it was great to see a little bit of ai leak out of ruby, she really got potential as an idol. and seeing how kana took that as a challenge, it will be gorgreous to see their growth. ruby could be the new gen ai if she trains really hard.

other than that, a found some things to be predictable and cliche as in expected and i didn't like that. like it was like too obvious. ultimately gonna give this 9/10. eagerly waiting for season 2.

The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama.

It's overrated for sure, not that it's bad but it's insanely overhyped and overrated like it's some sort of masterpiece, but has some major flaws in term of pacing and characters. Kana carried the show while Ruby should receive more screentime. Ep1 was engaging, finale was decent, but can't say so for the rest of it. The Akane episodes got done dirty in term of its pacing and her character as a whole.

Okay so I'm going to take a bit of advice of the show itself with the arc where they were characters were adapting a manga in a half assed way because it's just a promo for cute boys.

This show and story is just a promo for a silly story with the self refencing tropes some dark stories like to tackle and it should be considered more of a fun silly type of story rather than an emotional deep type of story. But even then, I was not having fun, the revenge arc thriller is obviously going to be extended to paper thin degree and it is the only thing I wanted from it.

The harem tropes, the high school comedy didn't really made me laugh, the most wacky ideas like reincarnation are deeply unexplored, and while I have liked very OP protagonists like Lelouch Vi Britania in the past, this guy is just an eyesore, Aqua is another edgelord I don't like at all and way too of a Gary Stu. The emotional scenes do not feel sincere and while I understand that parasocial relationships and inviting the audience into being part of he narrative of a fictional character as Idols can be is very common nowadays, I feel this anime reached the completely wrong conclusions about how to tackle such relationships in a healthy way, trying to make Ai actually perfect.

There are a lot of interesting moments and ideas in this series, reincarnation is interesting, the relationship change from fan to child of an idol is interesting, cyberbullying is interesting to explore, some actor acting exactly as someone who died and you knew in the past is interesting (it makes you ask, are you in love with the person or with the idea?), how child actors live and grow up is interesting, fanaticism is interesting, the deconstruction of reality shows is interesting, there is a lot of potential here, but I'm very disappointed with the rest of the content and how it executes a lot of these and other ideas, the pacing is way off, and I don't really expect much from the manga or a season 2, I might be checking it out eventually to see if I can get anything from the revenge arc itself, but I found very lacking in most of the aspects it offers.

I didn't expect that they will setting up the season 2 on the other half of episode 11. I always thought that they will setting up the next arc (Tokyo Blade arc or 2.5D stage play arc) on the start of season 2. Honestly, they skip 1 scene where the one Idol is looking at the trio and decide to retire. I guess it doesn't really important for the story. But nonetheless, a good episode overall
