I found this episode very action packed and funny

e.g. A Mic-Saber ??? haha loved the cross over between Lightsaber and Mic

We also get to see alot of action, which we are likely going to see later in the upcoming episodes which was quite nice.
Found the ending very funny aswell when it turns out to be dummies :D, really wasn't expecting that twist in the story line.

Overall i was very impressed by this episode and can't wait for the next ^_^

I haven't even done with this episode and I already can't stand the MC, what's with her "Don't fight!!!!!!!!!!"? Gurl lol. Then chasing after Chieri like no tomorrow, then Chieri had to act like a bitch though she has her own reason and burden. Ichigo from Aikatsu is so much better than this MC, and Aikatsu has much better casts than this.. too bad the songs here are better.

That song they were singing/practicing with is really good.

That concert was spectacular, the CG was awesome, they looked sexy, and cute. Nice dance, cool battle, at least until Chieri went "Look out!" -I'll protect you from the gunshot with my own body-, at least it's what I thought, then the song continues, and it totally recovers from that part, that's how good the songs actually are! Man that awesome songs from the concert! ^^

This show is batshit insane, I love it, it doesn't make any sense. So fucking entertaining for an anime where "fun is not allowed".

Dang for a moment I thought it was going to go grim dark and pull a Madoka. That was intense, even if just for a training simulation. The CGI dancing is killing me though, it's just so hard to watch and I prefer the original character designs.

3rd time watching

Nagisa has a habit of blurting things out without thinking. "Don't fight!" ...This is something telling of her personality that can be easily missed... it won't be the last time this kind of thing happens.

I'm guessing they were firing blanks during their battle? But they had real grenades?! Naa... I'll assume they were harmless flash/smoke nades.

Regarding the CG... this anime has some of the highest quality CG I've seen in a "normal" anime. Either Satelight's animators are exceptionally talented, or they used motion capture to get those dance animations so perfect. There is nothing unnatural about it, and without CG, we would just have choppy hand-drawn animation instead of the smooth and life-like dancing we see.

Dang, what an interesting training! I thought it's only based on how well you sing, dance, and perform, but never thought you would have military defense training.

Oh wow they sure got the melodramatic level right! Nice training and interesting way for an idol selection if you ask me! Let's see what's next.

The girls got baited so hard, that was a nice strategy to see who are really fit to handle the situation once they go to make concerts in dangerous places.

Only girls with colored hair are cool and brave.
If you have like brown hair, you are probably evil, stupid and cowardly. You will got stunned and forgotten. I mean, what did you even expected with such generic designs?
I hate group members, they are so annoying and smug. I wish them all die. At least new girls are modest and likeable (except this bitch Makoto).

Bad Cgi and bad lip synching in the beginning of the 1st couple episodes aside,
this is a nice anime so far.
nothing amazing but I kinda like the funny concept of idols needing to be armed in intergalatic combat.
I'll definitely finish this season, whether I bother to watch the 2nd season is up for debate

At least the whole battle was just for the training and was fake, otherwise it would be hardcore.
Obviously if you have colored hairs = instant win xD
