THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Wow, that has to be one of dumbest, possible to end with one call, plot i've seen in a while, Kotoko was in photograph with her brother, and because of it and article, people think she is in relationship, even higher ups want to disband Ongaku Shoujo.

Umm, hello, can't anyone of girls just tell it was Kotoko brother?

Oh god, I’m just about to go off on a rant right now.
This episode was stupid. Absolutely stupid.
Seriously? Disbanding an idol group just because of some unproven rumor via a viral photo from someone who probably is somehow bent up ruining them due to some re****ed grudge? Like, the exaggerated melodrama after the girls found out about the picture was bad enough, but the ending was absolutely absurd.
Idk where this show is trying to go now, but I at least want to stay around to see what the endgame will be.

The animation/artstyle quality is dropping with every episode, lol. I wonder what the ratings look like in Japan. I can only imagine it's tanking pretty bad, because not only is the quality absolutely atrocious, the story is very questionable as well.

If the rates are tanking, I can see why they decided to squeeze so much fanservice into this episode. The octopus, the bathing scene, all the butt and boob shots. All of this looks like a really desperate attempt to save the anime's rating from dropping. This episode was also stock full of still images and even those were heavily distorted partially... This anime doesn't look like it got a lot of budget to work with...

Idolm@ster had a similar issue (one of the members getting caught with a man by a paparazzi), but they handled it a lot more professional than Ongaku Shoujo did... And no one said "welp, now you are getting disbanded". If this would happen in real life and it would actually turn out to be true, the member in question would probably just quit being an idol and focus on her love life instead. What a bunch of bullshit.

Last week I had a smile on my face and genuinely liked the goofy, adorable tone of the episode, even though the anime really isn't that great. But now this episode was just...bad.

A few "quality" shots of this episode, just to give you an example what I mean when I say "the artstyle is bad":

The only thing missing was Uori blaming Hanako for the entire mess. This show is getting on my nerves.

Ah yes the "no animation just do a slideshow" method.

I thought I accidentally skipped an episode with the first 10 seconds of what happened.
Least degenerate visual novel enjoyer.

I mean the fanservice was good but the plot of the episode was pretty mediocre. Well, at least that photo at the end was nice.

One stupid paparazzi just had to ruined things. A-hole deserves to be burned or skin alive. And the stupid old farts just had to disband for a picture of their idol with her brother. I think its stupid excuse to disband them and make a new one?

It's the beach episode

That paparazzi was a jerk. Poor Kotoko. :( Now they are going to get disbanded. That's just so unfair.
