THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Compared to other episodes, this one was less tense and is more like a buildup.

Claudine & Maya definitely has one of the rivalries imo of this show. I hope the rest of the season capitalizes on them to bring out their best. Hikari and Karen also make good friends and rivals through their character chemistry in this show.

^yup this was like build-up episode for the development of the consequence of how Karen failed on the last episode and reflected of her mistake. not much spectecular stuff happened this episode time around, especially surprised to see we didn't got to see any fight. At least the last part of comedy was interesting haha.

By the way, I wonder if there are any news that confirmed that this is going to be 12 episode as currently MAL showing? That's going to be slightly disappointing if its really true considering how its similar show had so much contents.

This was a really nice and well made episode

No Karen. You will not find Hikari under there...


Sure were a lot of backgrounds used during Karen's search for Hikari...And why are there two jellyfish aquariums?

The short dance between Maya and Claudie had more choreography than all of Ballroom e Youkoso. Looks like Maya is the kind of person who always needs to be at the top...

Hehe, the roll call was fun. Nice to see every character contribute to some humor. And Nana looks nice with her hair down.

More Starlight talk, probably to give the animators some rest to prepare for the upcoming duels. That ending theme though..."Fly me to the Star"? Was that song based on Fly me to the Moon? Its melody sounded quite familiar...

No one say something about the fact that the singer of the ED song and the featured character in it has changed?
In episode 3's ED, there was only Hikari showing up as the main lead of the song, and properly her VA sang that song, too
In this episode's ED, now both Karen and Hikari show up, and i'm pretty sure that both their VA sing this
I guess the characters in the ED's background would change every episode?

This episode was more calm than the previous ones. But it worked well as a development for Karen and Hikari's relationship. So, I assume that "tension" between them is now over. They'll now try to shine together but I wonder how they will manage to do that...

It was also interesting to see more of that revalry between Tendou and Claudine. Personally, I liked the way Claudine acts toward this. As Tendou said last episode, the passion she has is something to be noticed. I really like the way she sees Tendou as her rival but also as some kind of role model regarding her skills as a performer.

All in all, I liked this episode, Karen and Hikari resolved "their" problems and the interactions between the rest of the cast was enjoyable as well. However, I hope the next episode gives me more performances since I think, it's the strong point of this anime.

And also...

Bananice~ how adorable she is.

A bit of a slower episode but it sure had a lot more character development so it was good in its own way.

I kinda dislike how Karen's acting being so clingy for Hikari while also basically neglecting all her other friends especially Mahiru. :(
I guess at the very least she was able to reconcile with Hikari.

The cover up was great though, it was pretty amusing to watch but it looks like the teacher knew right from the start. XD

The part with Karen chasing after Hikari were boring. In the park, was a bit better I guess. Mahiru was the mvp of the episode. Also Junna.
I like the ED song.

The problems of Karen and Hikari were resolved, I guess.

Quite a relaxing episode.

I think this is my favorite episode so far. It was funny and cute seeing all the girls interact. This is the first time that Karen and Hikari have really talked since she transferred to the school, and I'm eager to see their relationship develop further (poor Mahiru has got no chance, lol). The cover-up that the rest of the girls pulled for them was quite entertaining, even if it they did get found out in the end. Once again, I really enjoyed this episode.

Act all you want, girls, but the teacher is clever as expected in noticing the cover-up.
Pretty good episode, now it's more and more probable i won't leave this anime on hiatus for more weeks as happened before.

Someone would have eventually said it in my stead, there's that lesbian kind of friendship between her and Karen.
