| I love the twintails girl. |
| This is about as basic as it can get, but the whole idol stuff and shitty monster girl bait is making me hate this. |
| She is too much eating and getting fatter, look her skirt zipper & button. |

| That skirt thing was bothering me as soon as I saw it because I was expecting it to fall off, was she afraid it might fall off if she went full speed? The whole "why can't I close the gap" bit was outright forced drama because she never really tried to close it since she never did her full speed boost once in that race. The other teams trainer is a waste of a character and her only purpose is to be the bitchy antagonist, looking forward to when she finally admits that Special Week is a threat to her team. |
| We can't win every time, there's a time when we lose, that's competition. But 3rd place isn't bad either. Finally, she can perform well in concert, ooo that's cute (i'm forgot that the one who dance there is horse girl, teehee). I died at eating scene... what's that round stomach all of sudden, spe-chan ?? LOL |

| Okay so I got into this kind of late, 3 episodes already passed so I just watched all three just now... This is umm... THIS IS GREAT. I remember seeing the game trailer with my fam and we all just laughed at how stupid and trashy it was... which it still is BUT IT'S GREAT TRASH. Lots of shenanigans and fun among the characters, and they all look so diverse and unique too without looking straight up stupid... for the most part... I'm enjoying this a lot more than I though, and this may end up one of my most favorite of the season. Anyway, Special Week won't the only one trash at dancing apparently. But she got her fourth race in three episodes and her first loss, they've got a good pace going for this anime. Also loving how Gold Ship (Think that was her name, it's closer than I get with most names in anime) is always just doing whatever, they focused a lot on that. |
A Wild and Small Otaku has Appeared! |
| I know, right? This show looks plain, but I watched those 3 episodes in a row, and wow, it was like a wonderland. Not overkill moe/cute, not overkill idolish, not overkill shonenish, not overkilishly dramatic, just RIGHT. I like this show. Whoever adapted it, they've done it right. I can't wait for the next episode. Races reminded me a bit of an older Battle Athletes show. Those who never seen the show, here some footage |

| Yup, the crowd is way too loud. And they don't even bring it down while the characters are talking. All in all, the show is still pretty fun, if not a little rushed. I'm enjoying this show more than I thought I would. |
| I do like this, it is extremely fast paced and its characters are interesting. An entertaining watch so far. |
 |
| I really enjoyed this episode. I even questioned whether or not Special Week would lose in this anime and my question was answered. Aww man I felt bad for the horse girl who hurt her leg. We all know what happens to a horse who hurts their leg... Something I really liked in this episode was during the big race Seiun Sky seemed a little nervous/anxious and she had one of the trainers put her in the gate. I thought that was cool because it happens in real life horse racing as well. I feel like the racing moments over take the idol moments but I am okay with that because the races are more entertaining. Gold Ship...what the hell was she doing throughout this episode? lol SHOGI on the race track??? |

| Another nice episode and while I'm sure Special Week will bounce back I'm now really curious with what's going on with Silence Suzuka. I mean, she was the top horse before. Was there a reference last episode about Trainer needing to keep her reigned in? |
| Whoa, she actually lost. I wonder if that outfit had to do something with Spe-chan not being able to pull her sprint at the most crucial moment? |
| A bit of healthy realism has never hurt, and puts back that much-needed interest in an anime. In light of the saying that goes: at the base of a prodigy there is one percent of talent and ninety-nine percent of training and sweat. I think the manager has to apologize to Spe-chan. The narrative is nice and the excuse used to get Tejo into the Spica team is not so forced. I wonder if the manager will become a more interesting character, so far I still feel like an element superfluous and alien to the context. The race was as interesting as the previous ones, there is a slight presence of competition between the participants and the commitment of the latter to win. |
 |
| Did he let her lose intentionally in the beginning to make her stronger later and to prepare her for everything? It certainly seems so. Now I see her shedding all the fat during the nights prior to the race. She can be glutton right but she has to sport it away too. Anyway, it was good episode. This uses this well-know concept of zero-to-hero almost perfectly. |
| This anime have many characters at the same time. It needs to focus in a fewer of them. The episode is a bit better than the first two in terms of writing but it's still boring. 2/5 |

| Well I am actually glad Special Week didn't end first again, else there wouldn't be much for her to actually learn or train to get to her goal. Enough plot armour in the first two episodes I'd say. I sure am looking forwards to see what happens next though, but that ending was quite sad for Special Week! |
 |
| well, i just didn't expect to see such a nice trainer & trainee moment in _this_ kind of anime. seriously. just... nice. and simple. and i'm also surprised because of getting such shounen-ish vibes here. lol. however i thought there's a lot lot more ecchi - speaking of the theme and related stuff - and i feel happy that turned out there's no excessive amount of that. sort of mild and fun. okay! easy-fun series, i'll be watching the rest too i guess! :)) |
| Really cute outfit ! I hope she will become the best :D third place is a good start |
 |
| She ended at 3rd place its still great ! |
 |
| I hope we learn more about Silence soon. I thought based on episode one she had a reason for switching teams, or that she had some sort of backstory. But she's just faded into the background these past two episodes. |

| Thats what i call a nice lesson and a proper challenge. That Sky-san surely unexpected. She was more serious in planning than i thought. As a result, its became difficult for Spe-chan to adjust the rhythm of the match. She lost the crucial moment, even until the last dash. Spe-chan was just too late backing up her mistake. First lost for her, at an important race to fulfilled her dream. At least the arrival of Tokai to the team really cure my sadness over Spe-chan loss. She even became a dance trainer for the Spica girls. Its cute, and funny! I hope i can get her serious running action, together with how well the process of changed Spe-chan must be through. Lets see next.... |

| That outfit was so cute. ^^ Well, you can't win every time. That was a good lesson for Special Week. |

| Somehow watching all this running makes me feel tired, dunno how that works. Also, i feel like this is a perfect show for someone learning japanese, it's really simple and easy to understand. |
slice of life anime, my one and only. >3 2D>>>>>> |
| Well Special Week need a defeat in some race for grow of her skill and Importantly Trainer need to not too relax on trainining the girls. Hope their can increase their skill and become better in the future. On the positive note Tokai Teio join the team, So the team will gonna have more fun atmosphere and their dancing abililty will not be teribble again. |
 |
| Gold Ship is amazing. She truly is built different. |
| why didnt she tell any of the girls that the zipper popped open? it seemed to really distract her |
