| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- So we get some performance for the finale. The metaphor for the mecha felt pretty meh after seeing several times. Although however...I will say that the show itself has a good amount of energy. |
 |
| I'm going to be honest. This had more entertainment value than Chaos Dragon this season. This was cute at times but really lackluster even though its concept was unique to an extent. |
 All credit goes to Sacred. |
| If it weren't for all those live specials, maybe this could have been longer than six episodes. What a short show... |
| I was sure that Eriko was going to win with her MC powers and her will of fire |
| Ruka is so cute |
| So Ruka won, congrats to her. Those cars were some horrible CGI. overall 6/10, I liked the concept of idols summoning robo-avatars to fight, but the mecha designs and fights were lackluster, and all the explosions make the songs hard to hear. |
"Fortress Maximus has come himself. Okay! Then I shall get Fortress Maximus to fight me, huh huh huh!" |

Coach!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It was an okay show. Fairly typical, but mostly fun. I can't say I liked the subbed name of "Pooristan", though. I'm sure the Japanese was a related pun, but still. Ah well. Good work, comrade. |
| I thought this anime was quite unique and one that a ton of value. It has flaws and wasn't perfect, but I'm awarding it a ten for being an anime I extremely enjoyed, unique idea, the show actually had guts to have Ruka (my new waifu) to win. |

I'm sure the Japanese was a related pun, but still. Ah well. Good work, comrade. I'm still curious as to how, in such an impoverished country 1) 80% of the population can watch in 2) a manner that can be gauged. Oh well, it's not like the rest of the writing is much better. I'm being a bit harsh and giving this a 5/10. It had a lot of potential, but even at 6 episodes, directing, animation, and writing are pretty bad. Songs are barely adequate, and only the artwork stands out to any degree. The best thing the show had was the repeated oppai jokes in episode 5. There's a solid concept here that deserves a much better look than the creators were able to give. Hidayat246 said: Venus Project is an idol show dealing with real life idols. There were several live action episodes before the animated "segment," and it's followed by a further live action episode. The animated part is done and over.yakami95 said: In the end of anime we can read that anime will a have a second seasson anyone can confirm thjis? not second season but special episode or likely episode 7 |
| Well this was pretty bad. It honestly had the potential to be really good, but with 6 episodes and not a lot of explaining, it fell flat. The whole idol having a dance-off which is actually a mecha battle thing seems cool as a premise...until they never really explain in detail how the system works. In the end it basically looks like idol talent literally doesn't matter. They even say that the idols mechas are based off of their feelings and willpower and shit. So really, you could be the most un-athletic piece of shit with a voice that sounds nails on a chalkboard, but as long as your feelings are unwavering and strong enough that even you could be a Venus Formula Idol. It doesn't even come down to who sung or danced better. It's a matter of oh my mecha ran out of invisible health bar, so I conveniently fall down and whoever falls first loses. Like it could've possibly been cool. Real cool. But as they wrote it, it literally makes zero sense. The art was meh. All the girls were drawn reasonably nice and had big tits, which is a plus. But there were some derpy frames too. Animation was kind of piss poor. They literally couldn't draw girls dancing which is why they never show it for more than like 4 seconds at a time. The mecha battles were pretty shit too, but at least they tried. Legit during the beach episode there was a scene where Eriko was talking to the tiger girl and her mouth stayed open and didn't move for like 3 seconds. I'm kind of glad that Miu and Eriko lost, because their goals were like way tinier in comparison to Ruka trying to save her country. - I felt bad for Miu at first because of her mom making her quit, but then it turned out her dream wasn't even to be an idol anyway and she was actually happy to be in the corporate world. - Eriko wanted to help out the orphanage and stuff, which is good. But a little house of kids who are actually well off, compared to an entire impoverished country...yeah. I love how when this was promoted back when it was first announced, they made the pink haired, blue haired, and yellow haired idols the selling point. But it turns out they weren't even relevant to the story, lol. Also love how Ruka's outfit was literally a bra and panties with a garter belt and stockings, yet nobody batted an eye at it. Like half the time her panties were drawn so small half her ass was showing and she was almost showing a camel toe. Even the girl who's selling point was her size K tits had more modesty. Wasn't complaining though, because Ruka's outfit was sexy. And...uhh...what happened to the abused girl? They made a big deal about how the chick from Gothic 13 was being hazed, beaten, and had fucking cigarettes put out on her. That shit's not even a joke. After that she's never heard from again. Did the other members just fucking murder her in an alley or some shit? Even at the beach, Eriko only asked about the glasses girl. Didn't even ask about her at all. I will say, the coach actually being dead totally mindfucked me. Like they trolled me hard. I thought he was live the entire time. The way Eriko left the room, and they immediately showed it empty afterwards I assumed that he had left already with the Boss, and she got their late, saw the empty room and assumed he died. Then they show the Boss with him standing next to her, with no discernable way to tell he's actually just a ghost. When Erika looked up into the crowd and saw him, I assumed that since she thought he was dead she was having an illusion of him standing there as a ghost, but in reality he really was standing there and she had no idea. ...then bam, wife looks over and it's just a picture of him and his glasses. Did not see that shit coming at all. Especially since the wife didn't even seem to grieve over it. I don't know if that was intentional on their part, or just poor writing. They never even actually showed him being sick either. Every fucking day he was just chilling and playing Shogi. 3/10 |
| Maybe this best game adaptation for my summer. |

| Kinda confusing in some respects. The show pointed to Coach dying, but showed scenes with him looking normal until the end with the picture frames. Also, I thought that they weren't gonna show us what Ruka told Eriko, and that was gonna be really annoying. But luckily, everything worked out in the end I'm glad with how Ruka won, because the people of her country were inspired and Eriko was also able to pursue her dream as an idol. Overall, I thought this anime was really good! The songs were nice and catchy, the mech battles were an interesting idea, and the character back stories made it a very engaging watch. 8-9/10 from me, I'm glad I picked up this show! |

| Anime was okay, some cute girls and songs. I enjoyed the lives, they were quite entertaining. In one ep they chose Rippi to pose for modeling part, you bet they pick the gravure model but then she ends up going with some traditional housewife look, lmao. |
