Lol, what's with the bear outfit?

And lol, they run into a bit of a blackout problem. Sigh. That's never a good sign for anything especially when performing. Can't be helped sometimes I guess.

Somehow, I just knew the guy suited up as Resortle belonged to one of the previous generation of Shounen Hollywood. If I had to guess, I'd say Ryu is Amaki's counterpart with that foul mouth.

I'm so not liking how Shima was behaving towards the idols this episode. You can't just show up out of nowhere and expect everyone to treat you respectfully as a president with that attitude of your's. Even Tesshi feels that way, but he has to act normally to keep the balance.

The resistance at the end was pretty nice with everyone assembling for a party and sing Eien Never Ever together.

Decent episode. Although it's very unlikely, I really hope the real President returns and kicks Shima out! >.<

The bear outfit and the commercial of Shounen Hollywood members at the Amusement Park were nice.

My heart has been in turmoil since last episode. Just listening to them sing together and have fun, it's breaking my heart with all these mixed emotions. I hope everything turns out alright for them in the end. 2 more episodes to go and I'm really excited to see their new performance.

I knew that bear was Ryu. Ryu is my favourite out of the old group so I'm glad we finally get to see him.

This anime never fails to surprise me.

Everyone singing Eien Never Ever was nice, then the original Shounen Hollywood's version of the song at the end.

I really don't know what to expect. I'm not even going to try and guess what will happen with the group because this anime always does the opposite of what I expect.

I love that bear. Acid tongue mascot. When he was climbing the pole I thought he was going to dance, but he was such a crazy bear. XD
I always wondered about Ryuu. He turned out to be the best. <3 Whose counterpart is he?

And when they barricaded themselves, I thought that was a wonder new element to the show. That performance in the dark actually made my heart ache, I was almost teary. It was beautiful. T___T

Beautiful episode on all levels.

Omg fucking Ryuu lol. I always thought that guy was really eccentric (and that laughing at the end, I wanted to slap someone). If I was a kid I don't think I would like such a mascot, he got my blood boiling with all that taunting and his tone of voice. Good job Shounen Hollywood for putting up with that insanity and having to act as if they were having fun. Especially Makki, being stuck with the bear of all people. They did look like they were having the time of their life though in that commercial, contrary to their actual mood when they were filming it.

The last part was really nice, I liked the ballad version of Eien Never Ever in the dark with the light sticks. Was smiling the whole way through. I liked Kakeru's thoughts at the end about the rain giving them the sound of applause, it did sound like it. But the words felt almost melancholy at the same time. And hmm about Shima, still not sure what to think of him yet.

That... bear... I have never seen a mascot like that.

Everyone snapped esp. Tomii. lol. Okay, that was a bit... too much..

So that was Ryu huh. He was even crazier than I imagined him to be.

When thunderbolt struck lol.

Kakeru's singing voice has improved a lot now that I see. I like Kira's voice quite a bit. That was a nice acapella.

So the original group performed the ED theme this episode.

Dat preview tho lmao.

Someone how I knew it was going to be Ryu! I really hope we get to see more of him and well hopefully more of his back story ... 'cause so far, no offence, but he seems to have a little mental problem.

And lol! It's always so cute and funny to see Makki so worried about Cat XD

But seriously though ... what do they plan on doing after taking over Hollywood Tokyo? 'Cause I'm pretty sure they gotta eat and stuff ... as realistic as the show has been, I'm pretty sure they are going to get into a lot of trouble ... might even be as far as to have them replaced with more "experienced" idols or just be straight up fired.

Because he is the best member, and can't be beat.

I hate it. Borekeru's voice is tragic. Makki being the opener would had been tons more amazing.

Haha yeah I would agree, Ohsaka Ryota really doesn't have the best singing voice. He reminds me of Shimono Hiro, they should stop giving these two songs to sing. But anyways, I meant that I liked the slow version of the song, though I guess you might've meant that you hated the slow version too.

THAT WAS AMAZING OMG THAT ENDING WAS BEAUTIFUL
I was in the middle of working out and I had to stop to listen to it it was that touching

I totally did not expect this anime to be any good, I legit started watching it as a joke. It did a huge 180 from season 1 though it's so much better now!!! Also the characters have grown on me :3 aaah ~ I love when anime do that ^_^
