This show looks and sounds amazing, but god help me I'm so sick of little girls and their school lives. I wish the show was actually about the two adult girls that were singing WOW WAR TONIGHT.

Actually in D4DJ Groovy Mix game two out of six units (Rondo and Merm4id) consist of girls who are college students. I think that the first season will most probably focus on units within the one school (Happy Around, Peaky P-key, Photon Maiden) but other units will also appear at some point in the anime.

Aww man, since this is a CG show I have to watch it to the end. Interesting concept though.

I'd like to know why people think this studio made some love live ?
They're only doing bang dream as far as I'm aware, love live was always a sunrise thing

I watched bang dream s1 but still need to watch the rest so maybe I'm not used enough to this cg, but while the expressions are really nice, it's still overall way to "bright" and miss the "roughness" of animation.
Love live manage to avoid that by only having a little bit of cg during clips (and the cg is getting better each season)

I really enjoy the d4dj game but I'm not sure I'll stay for the anime, I'll let it have a few more eps before I decide to stop or not

Thought I'd give this a go and was really surprised by how much I liked the music. I'm a big trance fan, used to go clubbing and raving back in the early 90's so I like my happy hardcore too, some of this reminded me of early 90's happy hardcore and had that vibe, with a touch of jungle mixed in.

I'm really, really surprised. I thought anime dance music may not mix. I like Shingo Nakumura and his progressive trance stuff, but haven't heard of any other Japanese dance music, but the music at the end was epic. Loved Wow Wow Tonight track at the end.

@MetaThPr4h Bushiroad were the only producers for AL. In addition, this series was originally based on the MariMite style, so this was expected even before the anime.

@L-Mo-Reppin When I last listened to "yuri reviewers" about anime's yuri potential, I learned that Destruction Flag Otome was never a yuri bait, or that male love interest would never get much attention in a one hobby shonen with a female cast. Needless to say, both ideas were ludicrous nonsense? Don't ask biased people about abstract things.

The person I asked owns a website called yuriempire and it’s a very popular site so it was hard to not take his opinion as facts. Either way I just can’t help wanting to see any type of true yuri in an all female cast. That genre has to be one of the smallest by far when it comes to getting a show. Wish people enjoyed yuri more then ntr or tentacles lol

I immediately realized that we were talking about the same person. YuriEmpire is essentially a lesbian version of fujoshi with all the related things like "they look at each other, they fockin", etc. I'd rather read Erica Friedman, who, for all her eerie feminist and SJW bias, tries to be sober about content and not wear shipping goggles unnecessarily.

Few? Well, that's a pretty dubious statement. Yes, there is very little "real" yuri, but yuri bait or ship bait is now quite a lot. For example, this season already has at least 1.5 yuri shows and a lot of ship bait like Strike Wiches. And in general, the genre has long been more trendy than glam metal in the 80s, lol.

Then I guess that you have come to the right place. If you are into trance, then you can definitely check some tracks (esp. "Discover Universe", "Photon Melodies", "Be With The World") from Photon Maiden - other unit in the same franchise, which (as I guess from the op) will also appear in the anime.

It was so cute! Rinku really like Maho and was bringing her romantic love gifts through the whole episode. It was love at first sight! Awwwww the little lesbian lovebirds are so cute together,,,,,YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES

Rinku is the sweetest pie and I really like her. So happy full of genki and have this cute childish behavior❤❤

And to my great joy the bell lily's was in picture. One of the strongest Yuri symbols for lesbians in anime and manga.Who knows maybe this anime even going to have lesbian kissing later in?,,,YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES

A decent first episode I love the Yuri vibes and that its pretty pure. Only saw some background males . Good! I only accept my cute lesbians

Yea I agree there I try to read his info but like u said sometimes he will count anything as yuri ships and I just can’t be like that. They either have to talk about loving the person or trying to be near them like a vampire moved in the neighborhood or it has to be explicit yuri like citrus for me to count it

This very easily turns into wishful thinking by manipulating terminology like "girlfriends instead of best friends" or "crush instead of admiration" and so on, which really annoys me. However, nobody forbids you to ship characters, if you will. The main thing is not to be captivated by your own illusions.

Damn someone with there head on straight that’s nice to see. I wish they would do Girl Friends if there going to animate a yuri. I’m getting kind of tired of the yuri bait and insane drama for yuri and for romances. Like the one coming out next season u can tell that one will be crazy drama but at least it won’t be third wheels I don’t think but maybe could end in death

Girlfriends is considered a cult work, but personally I even consider it somewhat underrated. This manga made an important message that, for some reason, queer people tend to see romantic overtones in any friendliness from straight people, but queer folks or even straight yuri fans (what a pun) keep foolish themselves with different bait.

Next season? Are you about Urasekai Picnic? Well, the author is definitely a very eccentric person, but from what I've heard about the title, there is no controversy there.

Well there might not be controversy but they are basically fighting in a post apocalyptic world against aliens lol
