Interesting and very touching episode focusing on Chihiro. It's was nice to learn more about his life.

His father is such a good and understanding person.

This was such an amazing episode IMO. It really soothed something within me. Chihiro may be my new favorite.

Always appreciate some adorable Lin.

Chihiro voice actor got me crying, good scene. Also Mizuki is such cute little brother that loves his big brother so much, cute how he recognized Protostar and invited them in and thanked them for being Chihiro's friend.

The few still scenes always stand out in this since like 95% of scenes have such nice character movement (traditional dance scenes but even minor moments, ladies giggling)

Also Chihiro had such nice arts in the ED. They even got Mizuki.

Such a beautiful episode. It had the perfect blend of heartwarming with a dash of humor (the boys worrying over the possibility of Chihiro quitting and Lin getting dunked on had me hooting).

It’s such a pleasant surprise to see kind and understanding parents for a change. My favorite part of the episode has got to be the parallels between Chihiro and his father. Dancing is everything to his father, but he still enjoyed doing art on the side. (People are allowed to like more than one thing? Wow, what a concept!) In the same vein, Chihiro never stopped loving traditional dancing, but stepping into the world of idols has given him a new and different kind of joy. Plus, I love that his father could more easily understand since he’s a professional entertainer himself. And the painting he did for Chihiro’s fan had me tearing up.

It’s seriously a crime how much this series gets slept on just because iT’s jUsT aNoThEr iDoL aNiMe

This is the kind of healing I needed after IDOLiSH7 every week lmao.

Went pretty smoothly, which is already unrealistic...anyways episodes about relationship with parents always bore me so much

I like the way how chihiro faced his father after his friends got interefere with his family responsibilties and in the end when he got a gift from his father to give it to len. The way he was talking to his boss it was so laughable 😂😂😂
