This is what i can say---
Angela' song and performance is great... i love how she have sang that one...

But

Carole and Tuesday's 1st and original song is so beautiful, i even already didnt watch the clip as i am just listening on how beautiful the song is, the message and the feeling is on it...

Hmmm.. well its a draw so great for both angela and Carole and tuesday.

My favourite episode so far!

I love Spencer, I'm glad he helped Tues escape.
And I'm starting to really like Angela, I loved her attitude in this episode.

Props to my boys Gus and Roddy, always there, always helping even if it means going to jail lol

Oh boy, "Loneliest Girl" is definitely my favourite song from the anime, it had me tearing up. It even made Ertegun tear up! I loved that! I wonder if his attitude towards the girls is gonna change now.

My favorite thing, besides Carole & Tuesday being reunited, was seeing Angela be a good competitor. She wasn't a hater or someone preying on their downfall, but a genuine sweetheart who wanted to win with her own talent. She even supported the idea to let C&T play anyway. I'm so happy that something different was done with their rival instead of having her be a cheater or something. This honestly goes for the rest of their competition before the finals (except Cybelle).

This episode proves that even with the beautiful development and emotions portrayed in their songs, it still doesn't shy away from strong character moments as well.

That was a beautiful song by Carole and Tues, it really hit me! I'm really glad they're getting their debut and for Angela too.

I think the romance tag is for Tao and Angela, or at least I think!

Unpopular opinion, but The Loneliest Girl is not my favorite Carole & Tuesday song. It was a nice touch to sing the song that brought them together though, so from a story standpoint it makes sense.

Angela's song was more deserving of the win to me simply due to how technically good her vocals were, but yeah... the studio mixing and autotune on what are supposed to be "live" performances is weirdly distracting. You can do those things live, but they don't sound quite the same as studio editing, so it is odd in this show seeing performers do a "live" performance of an obviously studio-edited song. Reminds me of that memeable Ashlee Simpson moment on SNL about a decade ago when she got caught lip-sinking. Lol.

I need to watch this episode again because I'm not sure how I really feel. Plot armor and pacing have hurt the series up to this point and I hope from here on those are not an issue. I love the little moments of reflection and character development, and I do truly feel the connection between Carole & Tuesday, but their performances on Mars Brightest seem so stiff and uninspired compared to how we've seen them perform before. Look at their performances at home and in the little bar they debuted in and you'll see what I mean. They're smiling and really getting into it. On the show they seem so stressed and blank-faced. It's part of what made the other performers better. They all got into their songs physically. Carole & Tuesday have talent, but they have no stage presence. They are musicians, but not yet amazing performers, at least not when they're in front of a huge audience.

I have no idea where it's going from here, but I'm eager to see. That said I wish they had given a little bit of a tease or cliffhanger to go on b/c them getting a chance to debut as artists does not feel like a challenge based on what we've seen up to this point. It just feels like another step in their road to the "miracle 7 minutes". Hmmmmm. There needs to be more tension because at this point I don't know what would get in their way or stop them from achieving their dreams.

Some things are really predictable, like Cybelle's dumb stalking crap, and Spencer bailing out Tues, and it makes those moments feel boring because we know what's coming, but other moments, like how Mars Brightest ended, aren't what you think will happen. I hope more things are less predictable going forward.

Great episode.

Both the performances were great and honestly I think this was my favorite song from Angela so far.

I'm also glad that Tuesday's brother is a good guy. :)

Can't wait to see Carole and Tuesday's debut.

Oh my Lord, excellent and outstanding episode. Just nice when we have hit the midpoint of the series. @papsoshea riding on your thoughts.

For all of you who didn't know, this episode's writer is the Maestro himself Shinichi Watanabe, so you'll know that is DAMN FINE QUALITY.

Tuesday...really pity her because of her political mum. Like seriously, what mother could do this to their own kids? Ignoring their passions altogether.

So Carole and Tuesday had that moment where they couldn't mesh their thoughts together.

Good ol' Gus gave his heart out to Carole.
And funnily enough, the 2 of them (plus Roddy) attempts a kidnapping to get Tuesday back.

And Tuesday's brother was enamored by her performance, so much so that he believes in a failure like her, and helps her escape.

What a fine turn of events this turn out to be.

For the final, Angela got a song that did not reflect the generic AI song-written feel, but one that reflects her life. Great and captivating song. Fire Fire Fire indeed.

So...Carole & Tuesday's FIRST-WRITTEN song "The Loneliest Girl" finally debuts, in its full form.
Now thinking about their "miraculous 7 minutes", really wondering what would this represent, their debut perhaps if you ask me. The song itself is OK, Angela's song definitely had an edge over them.

But both debuted nonetheless.
Damn what a perfect stop.

Tuesday was confined to her bedroom, her brother, Spenser told her that he actually liked music in the past and that after he saw her performing in the club, he’ll support her. Gus convinced Carole that they need to do something, so along with Roddy, they went to Tuesday’s house. Angela went to talk with Tao about the lyrics and how the IA is like a giant sensor that can make lyrics with the feelings and emotions of people. At the same time that Carole, Gus and Roddy arrived and started a disturbance outside Tuesday’s house, Spenser helped Tuesday to get out and avoid the robot, Carole and Tuesday received help from an old man (fan of the show) that took them to the station (Gus and Roddy were arrested). Angela performed with excellent critics, Carole & Tuesday were late and for a moment they lost their chance to participate, but due to fan’s pressure they were allowed, so performed their song, the reception was excellent and the judges decided to give both artists (Angela and Carole & Tuesday) their debut.

It was beautiful when Spenser confessed to his sister Tuesday that he actually saw she performing in the club and decided to do nothing, because he really knows the value of a dream. It was unexpected for me the contest’s finale, I thought that Angela was gonna win, but it’s ok, a great success for Carole & Tuesday, both songs were good (no one really touched me, but come one, it takes more than one time of hearing a song for me), not excellent, I still think that this anime needs to develop more the vocal limits, I mean lyrics are beautiful, but combined with a strong voice, you can make a miracle. It was too convenient the old man that helped them to escape and took them to the station.

Spencer! What a brother. I had a bit of a doubt but it's all clear now.

Surprising that both the songs dealt with loneliness, it's a real direct battle of song versus song. Angela's song is great and seems harder to sing but The Loneliest Girl is just too heart wrenching.

I think the girls are wearing the same outfits they did in the first episode. Also, the gift Carole got for Tuesday might be a similar accessory as her bunny on her guitar case?

Hopefully we will get a good week to get ready for the next half!

Not gonna lie, I felt like this episode was rushed given the events and the development we had in 22 minutes; however, the outcome was not to my expectations. Hearing Loneliest Girl in its entirety brought the feels man and seeing Angela and our girls get a chance to debut was a big whoa nelly. Gonna be interesting to see where the story goes from here.

Finally the tournament arc is over, it was taking a toll on the show. The one who got the best out of it is certainly Angela, she comes out a much more well-rounded character and, dare I say, the most complex in the series as of yet. Nice first cour, despite some drawbacks.

That was beautiful. As a guy who knows nothing about music, I feel like Angela had better vocals and song, but Carole and Tuesday's was much more emotional, and I think the judges felt that when they started crying. I thought Angela deserved the win, but I never expected the judges to also give Carole and Tuesday a chance to debut too.

I was skeptical at the beginning of this arc, but it really had alot of great moments. Mermaid Sisters was my favorite.

Oh also, we got to hear the full version of Loneliest Girl

Well, looks like Tuesday's mother managed to screw things up for her enough that they were still disqualified for being late even after her managing to escape with the help of her brother and friends.

Still, they did get their chance to sing, and deservedly a chance to debut as well despite the initial disqualification. They even managed to make Ertegun cry with the beauty of their song and not by destroying his property this time.

Angela's song sounds so familiar, but I can't quite put my finger on what exactly it reminds me of. Possibly even two separate songs...

I dunno. While certainly not bad, Carole and Tuesday performance didn't really warranted those tears. And Angela's performance was a lot better (even if the lyrics itself were rather bad).

So it's probably for the better that they didn't win. But their deal for album recording also means they will be working with Angela together as of now. And wonder what Tao does with them, they'll probably try to merge them together with Angela at one point.

One would expect though that by now everyone would already know about her politician mother (in fact, in every other similiar contest, those people personal lives are the most exposed during its duration). I really hope it'll happen sooner than later as it's getting pretty unrealistic that noone ties them together. Would really like to see her mother capitalizing on Tuesday's success for easy politic points.

No idea how some people seem to think this was a top-tier episode when compared to some of the previous ones. The songs were amazing, they usually are in this anime. However, that's the only consistently great thing about this anime. It started out pretty solid in the first few episodes, but the other attributes that I initially watched this anime for have come unglued. It has become rushed in some spots and unneeded drama has been peppered throughout that makes me question why I'm even trying to watch for anything other than the music performances.

I wish this anime had more going for it than the music, Watanabe is the director for god's sake.

That being said, I'll still continue to watch in hopes of improvement and for the fantastic music.

angela's song heavily gives me alicia keys vibes, im not sure what it is about it. maybe just the energy and overall performance of it?
the loneliest girl however, it's an earworm. got to it on spotify before i even saw the episode, it's great. their songs are definitely more on the emotional scale.

AAAAAAH, I loved it. They really did a good job of 'renovating' the loneliest girl song, because it felt way more impactful and it was perfect. Can't waitt for the second half of this show, but at the same time, I'm sad to see we're a week closer to its end.

I've stopped watching the anime after episode 6 but I listen to the different songs of the show and for me Angela's are the best, especially "Move mountains" and "Light a fire". The music, the lyrics, and her voice are really good.

I've started watching Carole & Tuesday because I saw a video of "The loneliest girl" from episode 2 but even the full version in this episode didn't manage to move me more than "Light a fire".

I wish I like this anime more so I could watch it but the songs are the only part I like in this show. Anyway, I'll be waiting for Angela's new songs. =)

Ah man the loneliest girl is so good. So I know the whole point of Mar's Brightest is that the winner gets set up with some studio or whatever to be able to produce an album or something, but I feel like Carole & Tuesday woulda been popular enough to get some offer even if Mar's Brightest didn't say "alright we'll hook you up too." I mean whatever it doesn't matter.

So I figured Spencer would have helped Carole sneak out at (I'm assuming) the first opportunity where their mother would be leaving for an extended period of time. Still tho Mom will probably come back for more. I mean she clearly didn't give a damn about her daughter, but she might still feel like it'll ruin her image or something. Idk, now they might end up popular enough where Mom can't just come in and yank her away.

Well I'm excited to see where this goes anyway.

I kind of wonder if the two are going to end up collaborating with Angela at the end. The story is definitely setting her to be a big rival to overcome but they have similar styles and goals that are fairly compatible. I just get that sort of a vibe, that the three working together would be really cool.

kinda disappointed with how they handled tuesday's mom's drama. one would think that by now someone would already have learned who her mother is and the press would be already in that. it's a bit underwhelming, her kidnapping and threat would be better if it happened before the show, to be honest. if she couldn't get to the show because of it, she could have drawn attention exactly to what she's been wanting to avoid.

Best episode for obvious reasons.

I am guessing Angela fancies Tao which is why she is demanding that she focus on her and her alone. Yes, it's selfish but it wouldn't be Angela if her character were anything but selfish and prideful. I am glad she has integrity and refuses to win without having C&T perform.

I wonder if they'll encounter conflicts such as a lot of bands that broke up or disbanded due to creative differences. I know that C&T are bffs but who knows?

Knew they'd play Loneliest Girl but still truly cried; absolutely amazing and great dramatic cinematography with all the still shots of the characters during their performance. Still mixed on the series overall but this was epic and really struck me.

Thinking about it after the fact though they shouldn't have been able to play that well after no practice and Tuesday being away for a week, but they've got the talent I guess...
