This series was too cute. Really liked the songs this episode.

"See you next year!" So that probably means season 2. I'm glad ^^

I never, never EVER thought that I'd get so attached to this show. When it first started I was like, hey something to pass the time every week but that soon changed. I used to stay up at night just to watch this anime.

Amazon Stalker is predicting 5.7k sales for the first volume but another thing to note that this show's been ranking decently on Animate. Hopefully that pushes it to 7k.

At first this was 6/10 but now it's 9/10.

With the way they kept mentioning next year at the end (plus the end card), I'm guessing there is a chance of a second season. If not, it was a dumb way to end it.

6/10 Starmyu was a little bit more enjoyable than I was expecting. Definitely not one of my favourites of the season though.

Team Otori didn't do a single musical during the series. I seriously believe that they don't even know what a musical is.

Underwhelming performance and ending. They just... separated!? What??

Also, Kao Council had better animation for their dance sequence first episode. That's kinda sad.

I also wanted to watch the pirate performance...

meh.

4/10. Points for Inu, Tengenji and a couple good insert song. They ruined Nayuki and Shu and Tsukigami(?) got barely any screen time. I also seem to be the only person who doesnt like Otori.
I really hope there isn't a second season since I'd probably watch it.

This could be better? The performance was so bad. Idek why the audience would like that. I mean, sure it was cool and all, but where's the musical? What they did is what idols do (minus the Kakeru bit) Toodeepforme, I guess.

And did they really have to make the parting all dramatic? They might as well have said, "Ah, I am going by plane."
"Oh me by helicoptor!"
"Ships rock!"
"You got it wrong, rocket rock... pfft."
*awkward laugh*

S1 is welcome as I like some of the cast (the twins, Kaito, Kakeru and Nayuki) 7/10

Eh ok at the end Hoshitani didn't know Otori is the student he admired


This surprised me greatly, I figured he'd find out a big deal would be made out of it. Kudos for Hiiragi for figuring it out, though.

I wish the final performance song did not appear in the ED, that way it might have a greater effect. Then again already knowing the song may actually help.

Overall, I enjoyed this quite a lot. It was fun, delivered on the drama when it needed but knew how to be genuinely funny.

I would watch a second season.

According to Amazon Stalker right now:

*68位/*69位 ○ (**2,878 pt) [*,*16予約] 15/12/23 『スタミュ』第1巻 (イベント優先販売申込券付き DVD初回限定版)

The numbers might be somewhat inflated because of event ticket, but who knows, maybe most of the fans will continue to buy the rest of the BD/DVDs. Almost 5k total is not a flop so there's hope for the fans :)

Thanks for the info! This is somewhat good to know.

The end part was a little dramatic but I liked it, it seemed like a metaphor for parting with us viewers, and that hint that it wouldn't be the last we see of them. It provided some sense of closure.

As for the musical... they couldn't really have shown us the whole thing, so I'm thinking of it like they did do some kind of revue but only cut to show us the finale. Either that, or because this performance was last minute and nearing the closing of the festival day (remember that Team Hiragi was at the end of the performance timetable), they only did that much, so this detail doesn't bother me much.


Probably the only thing I have to pick about the last episode is that Akatsuki's sudden change of mind after seeing Team Otori perform didn't feel very natural.

I think you should consider CD sales too. With the heavy focus on music they will be expecting most from those.

That's true, that totally went over my head lol.

Well here's the data from first week sales, taken from the weekly CD sales thread each week. There has been a new Starmyu single that came out each week.

It kind of had a late start, but the ones under 1,000 for entry week ended up the same as the rest of the singles. It looks like the singles are averaging about 1,200, and they're probably the same fans buying it. As far as popularity goes, Starmyu is doing alright I think. At least that's what the sales seems to say. It's not as popular as say, Tsukiuta, Ensemble Stars, or iDolish7, which although aren't anime (two of them will be), they are about male idols too. The singles/CDs for those get at least 10k for entry weeks. But I mean if you add up all the sales for Starmyu's singles, it's quite a lot.

just check Japanese iTunes. The last album (the ending theme) is doing really well! It's currently the top anime album and song and is the 8th album overall.

^ I saw those charts too! I'm kind of excited to see the Oricon chart because Seishun Countdown is definitely going to sell better than the 11 previous CDs.

EDIT!!!
Oricon today
Seishun Countdown on daily Singles Chart #13
DVD Vol.1 on daily Anime DVD Chart #2
DVD Vol.1 on daily Overall DVD Chart #8
BD Vol.1 on daily Overall BD Chart #17

I'm dying as I type this as the singles have not once entered the top 30 till now... really happy (^-^)

Well that was fun. What a fuzzy feeling. Only downside is that Akatsuki was seriously a brute for no good reason and then he so easily gives up once they perform? What an annoyance. The Kao Council seriously had no personality. It was cute seeing them meet together at the end though.

Glad there was more Inumine! Love him.

And yay Tavian appeared! (How the hell did Tengenji change so quick? No way his outfit was under that Kabuki one.)

This is the updated chart accounting week 2's and week 3's:

High School Star Musical:

Drama CD 1: 579 copies (failed to rank in second week, sold less than 221 copies)
Character Song CD 1: 579 copies (1153 copies after three weeks)
Character Song CD 2: 975 copies (1667 copies after three weeks)
Character Song CD 3: 904 copies (2427 copies after five weeks)
Character Song CD 4: 1383 copies (2125 copies after three weeks)
Character Song CD 5: 1048 copies (1786 copies after three weeks)
Character Song CD 6: 1569 copies (2930 copies after three weeks)
Character Song CD 7: 1098 copies (1969 copies after three weeks)
Character Song CD 8: 1344 copies (1788 copies after two weeks)
Character Song CD 9: 1467 copies (2289 copies after three weeks)
Character Song CD 10: 1295 copies (1840 copies after two weeks)
Character Song CD 11: 1302 copies

I've been following Stamyu's music sales since day 1 and I have to say that it had a LOT and I mean A LOOOT of stock issues which continue till today. Quite a few of the CD's are either nearly out of stock or completely out of stock.

So the total sales for the earlier CD's should be much higher by now.

Also, the first BD is nearly out of stock on Amazon and the DVD is out of stock. So don't expect great week 1 sales.

What an amazingly enjoyable ride. To be honest, I had great expectations from the beginning and is a pleasure to say that they were fulfilled. (For an all-boys musical show).
Not much happens plot-wise but it's extremely adorable and fun to watch. Animation tends to be derpy at times but I don't really care about it this time. Music was great and moments between the main guys were satisfactory enough. I really really hope we get a second season, I'd be more than pleased to watch. 7/10

Inumine ended up being my fave tbh. But out of the main 5, Nayuki stole my heart with his cuteness. #ProtectThisChild

Overall, it was a good show but nothing remarkable. The highlight of the series was episode 10, most likely. I really liked the music and choreo there, as well. Comparing it to Utapri S1 and Shohari S1, it had Utapri's comedy and flow as well as Shohari's goodness. I felt like it was more similar to Shohari except it flowed much better and had more drama, which was a flaw.

The seiyuu casting was decent at best, but better than Shohari. I wasn't a fan of any of the songs minus one or two. They just don't really have a catchy beat. Dance with Devils, also from this season, has much better music despite not being a music show.

I felt like I missed out on something, like how Kao council was so angsty and antagonistic towards our main team. And the brotherly relationship felt too much.

Nevertheless, I'll give this a 7/10 and will definitely rewatch in the somewhat farther future!

Lol, same here. For me, that's the only thing that I feel so annoyed with. Other than that, kudos from me. Especially, until the end, Hoshitani didn't realize that Otori is his first dream XD aw, for me, that's a nice thing to know. Everything shouldn't be revealed, right?

Took me a while to finish this, but I'm glad I did.
It was a lot funnier than I thought it would be (at first, only the cheesy script lines were funny, but episode 7 was a freaking riot). There's definitively room for improvement if this show ever gets a second season, but this season was solid overall.

Akatsuki is one hateful bastard and my least favorite character in this anime, especially when he initiated the plan to kick out the Ootori team and to prevent them from performing( thank god the rain stopped). They did a stellar performance though and they killed it ( those outfits by the twins were spectacular).

Overall I thought it was a good series and I hope to see in the future for the next season, but I will watch the ova in the meantime. The characters were lovable and I still want to see them get into the music department and shove it into Akatsuki's face. Also for Hositani to discover that Otori is his idol that gave him his dream, and hopefully Hiragi will change his stuck up ways and enjoy music acting.

I loved the music, the plot and the characters.

So it's a 8/10.

I just finished watching the first season of Starmyu. It was really enjoyable.

At first it was a bit difficult, I coudn't find the characters appealing. Usually, there's only one main character who is "mean" at first but then evolve, but here, 3 out 5 of the main characters were complete jerks. Seriously, why Tsukigami and Kuga were so cold and mean at the start ?

But all the characters began to act normally... and quite suddenly I must say. But well.
After the first episodes the anime really began to be nice. Funny moments, cool characters, and a plot not as cliché as other Idols-animes like Dream Festival or Idolish7. However, I still liked this two animes a bit more. The main reason is that in Starmyu, there were still a lot of cringe moments. Especially the songs out of nowhere during the episode... It was really a flaw to me.

I give this first season 6/10, and will start the second season positively.
