| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- It's been awhile since I've seen an ongoing Idol themed show. Some of the parts reminded me of Idolmaster. The OP song is awesome though. I noticed that many of the idols' VA are relatively new to voice acting so it was nice to see them get a refreshing start in this. KANE poster spotted. I'm not a fan of Matsuda yet though but I did enjoy the girls' performance in the snowy weather. Decent episode :3 |

| almost as great as fractale |

| Dat fanservice. |

| This is very enjoyable so far but it suffers from a watered down Idolmaster look in the art making the art slightly average however the dancing was great, and I didn't expect the panty shots either, I thought my eyes were tricking me until I seen it a second time. The OP and ED are great as well as the voice acting especially since they are new. Magito said: WTF!? Did I see someone wearing no pantsu or my eyes playing tricks on me??? Yeah I seen it too. |

Magito said: WTF!? Did I see someone wearing no pantsu or my eyes playing tricks on me??? Pretty sure it's just some really bad pink color, if not, then just lol. |

| Really like the their voices hnnnnnng. Series only going to be 12 episodes? And ofc people are going to comment about the pantsu or about the same face but I didn't mind it was done 3 times near the end and I really like the character designs. |
| Damn president runny away with the money. At least now the girls are able to continue being idols. |
 |
| what is up with the anime coming out today.. first a show with such otaku pandering blatant yuri scenes and then a slice of life idol show with constant pantyshots when they dance and this is just the beginning. the panty color of that one girl is ridiculous tho ^^ dropped again! |
| I'm considering watching this only to see Yamakan fail again, as always. |
| 日本人はイッちゃってるよ あいつら未来に生きてんな |
| Alright episode. Did a good job continuing from where the movie left off. Nice to see that all the girls are hanging out and still want to perform together. |
| >Well then, try this on first. >Swimsuits Please. |
|
| Haha, Yamakan. Sorry for skipping this yama-chan. |
ENCORUUU ENCORUU |

| so with how all the forum posters hate Mayu and she was kicked out of the old idol group... we can assume she was caught on camera holding hands with a guy or something right |
 |
| >Walks into room >Places bikini on the table >instructs girls to wear them I like this Sudou guy. |

| not a bad starting ep :) i like their song ^_^ wasn't as good a start as idolmaster but i still see promise in it haha looking forward to hearing more of their songs ^^ also dat ending lmao |
RyanSaotome said: so with how all the forum posters hate Mayu and she was kicked out of the old idol group... we can assume she was caught on camera holding hands with a guy or something right I would guess it's something to do with her mother by all the comments. After all she hasn't told her mum and only seems to talk to her grandmother. I thought this was a pretty good start, although you really need to have watched the movie first. The dancing was well animated and as far as I can tell they didn't resort to 3D models. |
 |
| Well, this sure will be an interesting watch. No magical skirts here. |
 |
| What a pile of dogshit. |
 "Your sight, my delight. Will you marry me?" |

| I wasn't expecting all the panty shots during that song at the end. And why does Sudo look like a weird pimp? |
| I am not interested in the quality of the animation, the debut song is good, the first episode was powerful, and if it keeps this direction, I'll really enjoy rating an idol show at last. |
| Wasn't expecting panty shot. Well, it is my first real idol-themed series, so I didn't really know what to expect haha, but I quite like it nonetheless. Also like their debut song, really nice. |

Unfortunately, it's just some nicely colored panties http://i.imgur.com/u3sZITO.jpg It's a very light pink color pantsu, but pantsu nonetheless. I think the stage lighting made the pantsu appear as if the girl had none, oh but nice choices of pantsu by the girls lol. As for the episode itself it was pretty good. Matsuda lacks confidence, but hopefully once he forms a bond with the girls he'll begin to grow as a better manager than that old hag. Mayu appears to be having issues in telling her mom she's an idol again as she has mixed feelings on how her mother will react. Although hopefully there's more info on why Mayu left 1-1 Club, and it's sad to see she's back on the bottom starting from scratch with random girls forming an idol group. I see chemistry with the girls nonetheless. |

| I liked Kannagi, Fractale, and Black Rock Shooter to a certain extent. This is alright so far, animation is great though. The OP and ED are probably unfinished. The OP is just scenes from the special. The ED is a few pictures with a filter applied. |
 |
| For the people complaining about the panty shots, they were intentional, unless it wasn't mentioned in the TV episode, the movie version clearly states they were planning to give them panty shots as service. |
| Thoughts: 5:30 who knows where that earpiece has been 6:09 that metal shelf where the tv is standing on… I actually have that same one. I'm as alone as him... 19:40 lols @ dat fat fanboy. Why do they always look the same? 23:57 in the preview, the shorter girl on the right sounds a lot older than she looks ----------- Overall: 1. Right from the start & just by looking at it, the anime felt darker than previous idol animes. It felt serious in a way, which was attractive. The colors aren't 'super bright & happy', which are huge turn-offs (e.g. Aikatsu or The Idol Master) 2. I almost never watch idol type anime because hearing a bunch of girls or guys singing together just sounds way too dam happy, cheerful and shit like that (if they sang a dark theme, then I would reconsider). 1-3 voices are fine, but 4 or more is just annoying. 3. OP song is just ok. I wouldn't listen to it 10 times in a row tho. ED song put me to sleep. Like I was at some some 5 year old's piano recital. 4. The voice acting, graphics & music were very good just like in any anime. Characters are just ok for now. The story WAS BORING AS HELL. They're just coming back together in episode 1, so can't expect much to be told here. But since I see more good than negative, I'll keep watching. i'm a guy. I watch for the plot, not the panty shot...lol. Ep1: 4/10 |

| Cool first episode, the introduction was already been done by the movie. The only thing that bug me about the ep was the constant reuse of material of the movie, let´s hope this doesn´t happen in next episode! |
| Hmm. First time I'm watching an idol-themed anime. Probably shouldn't start with this, but oh well. I noticed someone said something about this being a little darker than some other idol anime, so I'm going to keep some hope it's not too bad. Not the greatest first episode sure, but the movie was decent as an intro, and this expanded on it nicely that way. |

If you're not positive on CR, all you do is get down voted. Comparing the two is out of the question. Also, people can express their opinion... It wasn't great. |
|
| I'm really glad I watched the little preview movie piece first. I think I'd be a little lost with them flashing back to the president if I didn't see that. Hmmm, looks like I1 is going to try stepping into their territory, ah? Interesting. I guess they'll have to handle that, as well as whatever they'll do about these bathing suits. |
| Need to get around to the movie before I watch the next episode. |
 |
| It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, it was decent enough and the last music was entertaining, at least for me it was. Lets see what comes next. |
HAITENAI!!!! |
 |
| Actually it was better than Love Live. But only if people can keep Yamakan's mouth shut... |
| 日本人はイッちゃってるよ あいつら未来に生きてんな |
| That was a good summary of the movie. Well kind of sub-par compared to the movie, but I'll be sticking around regardless :D |
