| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Lol, this was an amusing and relaxing episode. BE AWARE OF THE RED LOBSTER. The guys go take a relaxing trip to the onsen. Seriously, they are enjoying life like no tomorrow here. I'm jealous. Oh well, they do get some training there. |

| I don't know real Japanese idols and I wonder... They really have in real life such embarrassing introduction? I already seen such introduction in other animes, but these was more realistic/natural and in the right place... Also when in real seiyuu in events/shows show some chara behavior is funny and cool... Here even if this anime all these poses these sentences... Even if is made by pro... It feels so forced, false, unnaturally and pathetic... -.- |
    |
| Of course, the idols would get tired of continuously doing such humiliating jobs. But the moral of the story is, that there is brightness in humiliation, since they're still young. Good seeing Shun decides to stay at Shounen Hollywood. His brazen wish to become cool and popular with girls was pretty funny though. Not too meh because of Kou's lecture to the current generation of idols. That was actually pretty good. |
 |
| LOL omg Kou's introduction is the weirdest of all!!! Ack, those introductions are so terrible but hilarious. I wonder as well if Jpop idols have to such weird intros or if it's just this anime...I think about Kpop idols and their intros are pretty short and to the point like, I'm the leader, the main vocalist, and we are [insert name of group]. Oh but I did watch a few of Daikoku Danji's intros, and they were kind of weird, like "I'm Hyunmin and I'm in charge of cleaning the toilets. I'm Jay and I'm in charge of eating..." etc. Still nowhere near as dramatic as ShoHolly's though. But anyways, yay for Shun episode! Kind of sad though when he went to the audition and they're like, what you have is your face :/ Shun does want to be popular, but mostly through his music. Still, these types of things, you have to do some stuff you don't want to do in the beginning and work your way up! I personally would've like to do all those variety/entertainment shows, they seem to be a lot of fun, even if can be "humiliating" at times. |
| I think the introductions are exaggerated. Though not that I would know, since I don't follow idols. Ending was catchy. I liked this episode; more realistic than the others and that intro by the former member had me cracking up. XD |
| Oooh nice ED. I wonder who sung it. Doesn't sound like OnoK though. I liked this episode, but it took too long (like 9 minutes?!) to get to the main point. I just feel like it could be paced better because the character development and everything was done well.

It feels so forced, false, unnaturally and pathetic... -.- The point of this show is to have awkward and unnatural moments which is something we create in real life. It's not supposed to feel natural I think. Real seiyuu events are all scripted and acted out, so they're supposed to be cool and funny. Plus, keep in mind these characters are still starting off and haven't had much experience yet. Experience seiyuu have probably gotten at least 5 years of training and exp so they are better at what they do. |
| Finally, my Shun episode <3 I actually find the introductions quite funny because of the exaggeration. Actually, after ShoHolly, I do want to start following some idol groups or something... And I like the ending song this week! Although last week's Eien Never Ever was the best until now. 4 episodes left. Well, that was quick. |
「喜びも悲しみもあなたさえ五等分なんです！」  |
| Shun Episode YAY!!! I wanted to hear Shun song OMG!!! Yeah he has the look but adding his singing amplifies them. GRRRRR > ; 0 Kou Osaki appears : 0 Helping Shun out. No matter how humilating a job it. As long as you shine at what you are doing. Inspiring speech. I want to see Shun be cool and a hearthrob. But same with the other members of Shounen Hollywood. I don't think the VA are singing the ending song. It's just like ep 3. |
| Wow, I like this episode about Shun. A good insight about what taking any jobs open for the meantime so that they will be popular.. Good thing he meet that dude and decided to stay. Can't wait for Shounen Hollywood to be really popular. |

Experience seiyuu have probably gotten at least 5 years of training and exp so they are better at what they do. I get that vibe with realistic idols... and that's why I don't like this introduction. Even when "Real seiyuu events are all scripted and acted out" it doesn't feel like this and feels natural like he just come out with that idea. But in that anime is really easy to see that this guy do what somebody tell him what to do. If this was just short introduction like "I'm... from ... and I come here to take your heart, little kittes..." and send kiss or something, then this could give idea that "this is more natural" But that pro Idol guy he should make that introduction realistic and natural... but where they they showed this learned moves is just... -.- I watched show where actors played a show... and there were parts where they knocked out of the role, tried to hide a smile... But it was intended, no matter what will happen, they must stay on role and try to play along. And there you I could see where actor play role and when no... SH shows realistic idols and tell people that everything is directed. What they said, what they do is just directed. When they said "Were are so happy to be here!" is just line from script and doesn't mean this is true. Maybe I missed part where one of characters said "It must feels like you are natural when you talk to fans" and most fans don't care that their idols aren't honest and say what people tell them to say. I write too much... |
| |
| Well, either way, the show does realism pretty accurately, whether you enjoy it or not. The point is, we can't really expect these characters to be perfect idols yet when they're just starting out. |
| I really liked this episode, so realistic. Would prefer this show over something like Uta no Prince-sama any day. Shun got brainwashed developed nicely. |
 |
| Shun, you're already a heartthrob >/////< |
 |
| Decent episode focusing on Shun. That lobster scene was funny. |
