| I liked seeing the seiyuu/idols in the preview. The rest of the episode was meh. |
Pantsu shot :)) |
| This show reminds me of a BBC documentary I watched called Nine Muses of Star Empire - it followed around a Korean idol group for a year for a look at what it takes to make it as an idol. (If anyone's interested, it's on youtube) So far, though, the girls in Wake Up Girls! haven't faced as much hardship as the real girls of Nine Muses, but if this show continues to portray the idol industry with some realism I'm going to be looking forward to the rest. |

| Loved the OP and ED. Repeating some scenes from the movie exactly wasn't a really good idea... they cudv at least change the angle etc. This episode kinda reminded me of idolmaster, about how its a new group and a unexperienced manager etc. And I do agree with most of you it is a dark side idol anime, I hope it dosent get too dark >.> idol animes are suppose to fun and happy ^.^. I have watched akb0048, idolmaster, macross frontier, lovelive and I would say so far WUG is better than idolmaster and lovelive ( loving akb0048 and macross frontier 4eva <333) The ending where that thug ass guy comes in and says wear those bikinies and panties and immeadiattly i was like NOOOO please dont turn this into such a fan-service anime >.>. Well it is normal for idol animes to have the main characs wear swim wear but if the thug guy takes control of the group and decides to sell the group with their body instead of their music and performace I am so going to be dissapointed.. WUG is my most expecting anime this season and I can tell already its not getting a lot of attention. To ALL who already dropped this please give it a try "dont judge a book by its cover!!!" |

| Pretty good shit..... |
 |
| Yup, I really am in love with the opening song. Okay, I love this. This has some good potential. 8/10 for now. |
 |
| It was a OK first episode. It's mandatory to see the movie. The movie/prequel was really interesting. |
| 09:26 "Tenchou!" 17:20 bad news 7/10. Were those Sendai sceneries in the ED clip? |
| Isayama Hajime should be awarded The Manga with The Highest Inconsistencies of Characters' Appearances. He keeps performing multiple plastic surgeries on those Shingeki No Kyojin characters in a SINGLE chapter. Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga. Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month. Patiently awaiting SNK TV/movie/OVA anime-sequel. The 2015 SNK live-action movie would probably suck. |
| I'm not really a fan of Idols and pop stuff so not sure if this is something I will continue watching. All I can say for now is that the art was subpar, but the concert scene was well made. |
| I am falling, I am fading, I am drowning, help me to breathe. |
| 4/5 To be honest I did not want to see it, because it gave me the impression of a generalized exaggerated savings. But, I must admit, I see some seriousness in the plot and I was also attracted by those working on the project. Narration calm, not the usual stories sweetened with so much moe to make a corollary. Drawings really skinny, animations not the best in certain situations, rather good during the performance on stage. For now, rest buttoned on judgment, I await the next episodes. Overall rating of 7/10! |

| Pretty nice catch up from the movie prequel, I really wonder what the whole series will offer us so let's see what's next! |

I wish I knew how to make gifs, but this made me laugh so hard because Kaya started talking and Nanami's mouth is still hanging open. A mistake like this would bother me but that expression is just too adorable. Anyway this was an ok follow up to the movie. It felt a tad bit bleak but I was glad to see their movie performance again. The way the girls interact feels kind of awkward but at the same time makes more sense than being hyper-moe intimate. I also notice that with the exception of Miyu, most of the girls sound more grounded in reality and don't sound like they were groomed to be as kawaii as possible. That was pretty funny with the random deliveries at the end but I'm not liking this Sudo guy's first impression. He seems like one of those smug bastards who wants to take advantage of desperately low end amateurs but hopefully that's just me being too cynical. The next ep previews are fun, it's nice to see the voices behind the girls. |

| Pantyshorts in an idol anime, no thnx. |
 |
| Ah yes, basically a summation of the movie, though I highly recommend people watch the movie before diving in. What's with the swimsuit on the table? I smell more shady deals ahoy... |
 |
| Nice performance... |
| I already liked the movie and the first episode of the actual series was also pretty good. |
