Woo I like it.
I gotta admit when I saw its full CGI I was sceptical but... Its better than expected.. Would still have preferred 2D animation.
I guess its kind of a 'tool' to show how much more music orientated its gonna be.
The music was great, the bands are great, new studio is great- though I'm gonna miss Space.
Looking forward to it

Jump straight from season 1+OVA with Roselia and have no idea what was going on with all these casts.

I guess this is one way to promote the game like how Chunsoft skipped Danganronpa 2 anime.
Truth is absolute but human perception of truth is always relative.

am not a CGI fan, but I will give it a chance. I never played the game so I found it a bit confusing as they introduced the other bands and Roselia's girls at Hanasakigawa High School.

It was OK.

Hmmm I don't really know what to think of the CGI, I guess they're decent but it seems a bit weird to watch the anime in CGI after the first season

watched imemdiately after finishing season 1

the cg of season 2 does not bother me. Pastel girls are so cute. Well, also that group that has a mascot caught my attention.

looks like there are more places to perform now. :)

The CGI was a big shock to begin with and I didn't like it but I think its slowly growing on me. Can't help but thinking that Roselia all looked like Bratz dolls lol.

Not sure if I'll be able to stick out this 13 eps with this CGI but we'll see how it goes.

This season seems as if its really to promote the game and its characters. The way they shot the performances was like they were shouting, "Hey look at all these cute girls and costumes we have in the game!"

The CG is still just as hideous as I remember. Cheap fucks. The CG in that performance at the beginning of the episode looked so cheap, that it made it look as if it was from some parody anime within anime the main characters were watching on their TV.

Watched the music bits of season 2 (and 3) multiple times, and snippets of episodes.

This in April 2023.

Community sentiment towards CGI in general, after shows this season with D4DJ season 2, and Orange's Trigun Stampede has made CGI anime more widely accepted and enjoyable.

If you note Season 1, episode 8's CGI performance, how smoother the characters look. 
The movements then and now, are very lifelike, motion capped, along with the good presentation of the instruments; this gets slightly better in season 3, and goes whole ham glorious for D4DJ season 1, later the same year Season 3 came out.

I'm now on the other side, alot of hand drawn anime now looks very awkward, rough and janky, giving an impression of poor quality.

So cute, the first thing you see is the real life idol doing her dance, she actually performed the same choreo 1 year before, with the Back Band (now RAS) and its animated into 3D here.
