| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Heh, out of the characters introduced so far, that Kouno Miyako girl has my attention. This is an idol show so I did expect a colorful cast. First episode introduced a bunch of them at once. The animation quality looked nice I guess but I think the music is where will make this anime shine the most. |

| 22/7 is already trending in Japan (Twitter), wow |
| Although I heard that 22/7 are voice actors, the rendering in this show was quite poor. |
| God the voice acting is horrible |
| @inuvivo on twitter! |
| For the love of god, that voice acting... it's beyond hilarious. The episode itself is meh at best. |

| Honestly, it wasn't a bad episode. I'm looking forward to their songs. |

| Surprisingly decent, quite intriguing. I've seen a decent amount of idol shows but this definitely felt way different compared to anything else in the genre. At the very least the first episode had a way different atmosphere. Curious about the door, wonder if the series will actually have some sort of super natural element. I thought the narration and characterization was quite nice and while it feels grim at times, the little flashes of Miu smiling do feel hopeful. The meaning of 22/7? It's Pi, just saying. xD |

|
| i believe this idol project has been developing since 2017 right? damn godly awful performance to some of members and the main's voice fits more to a 30's female character than a JK high schooler. money wasting on seiyuu courses. |
How should I know? Also, Revue Starlight had all of its members being VA as well even before the anime. |
| well the protagonist girl has it rough |

| I'm quite disappointed. I probably shouldn't have much expectation for an idol show but this was the animation quality I was expecting. Somehow Cloverworks managed to make a series of KyoAni-like beautiful shorts while A-1 managed to fuck the main show up by having ugly character design, constantly off-model sakuga and garbage background art. I also don't like the characters. It looks like half of the cast consists of generic anime girls while the another half a bunch of obnoxious teens (the main girl and the overly serious girl.. They're the most unlikeable.) Not to mention the voice acting... utter trash. The only thing I liked about this is that the main girl determined to become an idol purely out of spite. But we can pretty much predict how she will be softened and converted by "friendship" or "dream" or any other idol show cliche they've got. |

| Good episode but this is so much depressing, I feel really bad for Miu |

A series of "kyo-ani" like happened because Yoriguchi was the animation director and character design but in the anime they aren't. It has nothing to do with A-1. |

I disagree, the group was formed in 2017, and they have been training voice and acting since then. also, they have for near a half a year a program in Tokyo MX were they need to voice acting the entire show so saying that they are not professionals is an error since they are getting paid for that labor |

However, I have not watched the episode yet, so the comments simply could give me the wrong impression. |

I thought I was the only one that noticed. I watched it live with all the boom and the trends and it was very disappointing. The main character voices' do not fit the design of the characters. So far a very average show |
| So a show about an Idol group, starring the idol group, one of the members of said idol group is leaving the group and it has some supernatural element attached to it? not sure how this is gonna play out, Miu seems like a good protagonist though, not about the whole "nakama power" jazz that almost every idol show has, I like that not giving a shit attitude. VA performance was bad as expected. About as much expectation as what you'd find in films RobertBobert said: Pipe said: I disagree, the group was formed in 2017, and they have been training voice and acting since then. also, they have for near a half a year a program in Tokyo MX were they need to voice acting the entire show so saying that they are not professionals is an error since they are getting paid for that labor In this case, I meant that this is not their full work, so their recording may not sound too perfect compared to the usual AAA anime.

It's the same level of performance you'd find in movies tbh (although slightly better I'll say) |
 'On-Hold' is another way for a completionist to say 'Dropped' |
| I guess I got too hyped up for this episode/anime, and it ended up just disappointing me. Can't complain about animation, it was pretty good. Voice acting was okay-ish, Miu being, shall I say, emotionless in speaking (especially at the end) was something that surely pushed me away from taking her even remotely seriously. Others are, well, also less fitting to how you'd imagine their voices to be. Also reminds me of AKB0048, which wouldn't be a bad thing if not horribly executed... |

| I don't really understand? I feel like this was paced way too quickly, and what even is that supernatural event? |
| Really like their music, the OP and ED was great. Looking forward to see and learn more about the characters 22/7 > π |
 |
| The first episode definitely caught me off guard. I didn't expect to like this as much as i do, but the art is amazing, and despite the amateur-ish sounding voice acting, the characters are good and especially Miu. Her VA fits her character extremely well, with the shy tone fitting Miu's shy and cold attitude perfectly. i'm definitely looking forward to more episodes. |
 |
| I am not feeling this atm, I will give it a few more episodes and then I will see... The 'humorous' scene at the zoo was just cringe. Aside from that, the animation is decent but both OP and ED are pretty solid. 3/5 |
 |
| Miu is one depressed ass idol. |
| You know the voice acting's terrible when even a western thread has problems with it. |
| mostly watched cuz 22/7 is my bday. but seems interesting too |
| Man I wished that would turn into a death survival thing now given the last scene... too bad it won't happen |
| Trying to watch all available anime series so you won't have to anymore, the list of anime I can recommend is still in progress, tho |
| i lost my job at the warehouse, so instead of searching for a new one, i decided to become an idol! i do it for my fam! looks like something i would drop after 3 episodes. will stay a little longer because of the weird supernatural mumbo-jumbo |
 |
| One of the most entertaining first episode of this season. And after seeing other people reviews I'm starting to question my tastes, like serisouly I hated id:invaded and hanako-san's first episodes that everyone seemed to love. (btw did not notice the bad voice acting) |
 |
| I love when idol-series are more about the characters, their minds, and their problems... and not just acting and performances... I hope this continues like this... i dont reallky like idol-series... but i liked Miu and her situation. The others ares just dust in the ground. |
HiddenOne said: Idk if I'm weird but voice acting wasn't really problem for me. It wasn't the best but it didn't make me wanna close it. I'm not CGI fan but if they limit it as in Zombieland I can bear it. Visual was good. Also the thing with "Wall" was a bit of surprise but let's see what it brings. Confused feelings atm. High hopes for next episode. I value A1 Pictures way, way more than (if I remember correctly) Mappa. In the end, A1 Pictures was responsible for the best Idol series all time (Idolm@ster). Myorave said: For the love of god, that voice acting... it's beyond hilarious. The episode itself is meh at best. I didn't have any problem with VA except the main girl. But I'm not sure if it was intended or not. I heard similar voicing for characters like this done by pro seiyuu in the past, so it might be done on the purpose by director. |

| Dub = fake crap. Always. |
| That voice doesn't fit the MC at all other than that it was alright I guess |
 |
| LOL almost everyone is hating on this anime... I LOVED IT <3 |
 |
| I don't really notice what people are saying about "bad voice acting" but maybe it's just that I'm used to their voices from watching them as Vtubers for a while now. Well, except Nicole's since her original VA got sick and had to be replaced. I hope Uta Kawase can be the cute Nicole too and not just serious Nicole, though, because she's cute doing the "niconicorunrun nicorunrun" thing. TheUnknownKnown said: Wow, this is the most depressing opening song I've ever heard for an idol anime. Let's talk about that, shall we? ねぇどうして 生きていかなきゃいけないの 命って何のためにあるの？ Why do I have to live What is life for? Most of their songs are little melancholy. This has been something of a trend with Akimoto-produced groups lately (Keyakizaka, Last Idol, etc), but I like it for some reason. |

|
| Interesting start for sure ... The song is very AKB-ish just as expected. Story is a bit darker which I didn't expect. |
| Hm...Miu character design and voice kinda like Mikoto Urabe. Other than nicole everyone is ok. |
| . |
| Wait, an underground base AND some kind of weird statue thing that spits out orders? Huh alright, lets roll with that |
