Hmm.. Does really feel like a new season, so I understand why it was advertised as one. Like, Naoto-sensei?! Awesome.

Ichigo was fazed out of the opening thing...

The new OP was kind of weak for me.

I don't really get all the hype for the new ED either.

Wow, Rin's dance moves are so sharp and quick even in the actual performance, just compare them to Madoka's. :O

Great episode, Madoka is just as lovely as I wanted her to be. <3

aikatsu feels completely revamped now lol.
Either way i'll wait for a few more episodes to decide if it's going to be a fun show from now on or not.

(Also Naoto finally getting some screentime)

Rin so owned this episode with her bright personality and awesome dance performance.

Kinda miss Akari and Ichigo doing the Aikatsu Aphorism at the end though.

Great start for the new season of Aikatsu! with a lovely new OP song and a good new ED although the art in the ED creeps me out a bit. ^^;

Rin is so cool while Madoka is so cute! <3 The synergy between this cool & cute combo is going to be something that I'd like to look forward to every week. :)

Also, Naoto-sensei, haha! :D Now Naoto will get even more screentime. :3

Rin has some really wicked dance moves! Finally, Johnny-sensei gets a disciple, ahaha! And Madoka looks so lovely. <3 Great character designs for these two! :D

Season 3 made me hyped even more for Aikatsu! after season 2 which bored me and looks like season 4 is gonna be fun & exciting to watch as well. I just love the Starlight Academy idols, and this academy is always getting plenty of fresh new talent. I'll be rooting for both Rin & Madoka! <3 Also, from the OP, there's a new idol(?) along with Miyabi. Could she be her classmate or her junior too?

1. This OP song really suits this series. Very lively & refined.; Naoto looks great in a teacher's outfit

2. Kurosawa rin is like seira + johnny; amahane is too moe that it's bad

ok... so it took one episode for Rin and Madoka to become way more interesting characters than team from season 3 - I was expecting some tensions or that they might not work well but chemistry is here (and they are adorable). somehow it reminds me of Kaede and Yurika-sama unit, which is a good thing :)

Naoto-sensei.. huh. well he might know thing or two, so is probably suitable for Johnny-sensei's underling.

OP is typical stuff but ending is awesome - there was some weird/creepy art but after third rewatching of it, I really like those parts.

one bad thing here... when Rin was talking about that dance thing I was hoping for some kind of Tribe Cool Crew cameo. there was none and I don't like it :P

awww... they removed Ichigo jumping out of no where in the Opening.

Guess they really do aim to remove the old group out of major developments.


Also, new girls are fun.

One is Hyper, while the other seems to be the Gentle type, LOL.

About time someone is on the same page whenever Bepp-sensei does his trademark dances. Rin doing the Bepp entrance was cute. I'm liking Rin a lot now. Madoka not so much, she's too quiet. It's like the writer slapped a PreCure character into Aikatsu.

Overall the episode was great. The ending predictable yet enjoyable.

Naoto becoming a teacher. Wait till Ichigo finds out lol
Kind of hope for Ichigo to return soon. She's the icing to the show.

A new year starts for our characters! Rin and Madoka join the cast, and Naoto is now a teacher!

Rin loves Johnny's dances, I already like her by default for having good taste, her energetic personality is great.

A new season! It feels pretty different now that Ichigo isn't gonna be around. I really like both Rin and Madoka!^^

What a nice episode. I like Madoka and Rin already.

That was the strongest blush I have ever seen in Aikatsu! Rin is so cute. ^^

That new ED is pretty weird. Akari looks so creepy and soulless.

The new opening and ending are both BOPS!

And I adore the new girls, especially Rin, she's just too cute

Naoto being a teacher makes me so happy, it's about time he got more to do

This is definitely where Akari gen gets even better in my opinion, so I'm hyped to get into it <3

Nice kouhai for both Akari and Sumire. Naoto got promotion from groundskeeper into a teacher lol. The new characters so far are quite interesting especially Rin with how energetic and enthusiast she is with street dancing. Coolness and cuteness goes well together. The dynamic between Rin and Madoka were fun. The show feel more fresh now with new cast and new term.
