Heh, becoming an idol really can change a person's life in this show.

Sorane seems like one of the more overlooked characters but hey, she's getting some screentime. Looks like she's even got some fans.

So many misunderstandings in the show, but I'm enjoying it. Also I hope Eripiyo is fine after that "heart" beam from Maina.

It seems to be horrible being an Idol, you can't even have a boyfriend or private life, anyway the episode was really good and funny

this show is definitely keeping me on my toes every week, aside from some of the more cringey misunderstandings. really digging the spotlight they give to the group members and not just the three stooges

the way this handled it, Sorane pretty much got off easy, its way worse in real life. death threats, merch burning, obsessive stalking, etc...

The final scene with Motoi was absolutely hilarious, the way his expression changed after realizing it might have been a misunderstanding and the banzai was really funny. xD

I ship Reo and Sorane.

Eripyo's 5 seconds was beautiful in it's own way.

welp now another yuri subtext relationship has formed. By the laws of yuri, Yuka and Aya must automatically be in love with each other


and my god the misunderstandings. At least it was all for comedy this time around, but seriously, this show is really pushing it with teh misunderstandings lmao


Then again, Eripiyo is really the only decent part about this show (and the backgrounds I guess)

GOD, i love this series...

Fav One of this season... no matter what anyone says...

I really appreciate the way they made this series, because every character is important in the story...

We can really see which ones are the Main ones, the secondary ones and etc etc... but for me, every character here has become important as a Main one.

Words cannot describe how happy watching this anime makes me feel. It's enjoyable, funny, and full of fluffy feelsies.
That last scene made me smile way too damn hard.
Please sail, Maina x Eripiyo.

Is this real? Is Maina really going to open up a bit? Are we finally moving away from all the unnecessary misunderstandings? Of course not. Just wait until we find a new one next week.

Loved the Sorane focused episode. Unlike the usual confusion around Maina and Eripiyo, the Sorane situation feels a lot more realistic. Still, I hope the show does not overextend the confusion like always and resolves it soon. (or just move on altogether.)

As always the wota-based comedy continues to be top-notch.

The handshake time must be the worst time, when there is no one waiting for you.

It's impossible that Maina doesn't know her image item.

Well...not everyone in ChamJam wants to be in the centre, especially for Sorane towards Reo in a totally Yuri fashion.

One look at her, and the then non-idol feels like she didn't want to be part of it. But a chance comes for her to be part of ChamJam once Reo's old idol group broke up, and with renewed interest. It's no wonder how seasoned Reo is that Sorane takes a liking to her.

As more of the now-seen ChamJam girls appear (Aya, Maina), their rough start would be as usual with new idols taking a step into the big scene (and who would've guessed: it's the Budokan (by the title of the series)).

As expected for fan wotas, Eripiyo and Kumasa couldn't care less about Motoi's relation. But the scoop about Sorane...yep, it's all rumours on the outside, but real issues on the inside.

When all is said and done, the fans sill always love their stan, and misunderstands will always forever be misunderstandings.

Still as funny as I remember at the start. At least we're getting somewhere.

That Qi Gong at the end got me laugh so hard!

Definitely one of my favs of this season.

But there are more ships in this anime than in Azur Line. Petition to change the game to "Harbor - The Animation"!

The lines between Philia, Xenia and Eros are blurry as ever! It’s all perspective at this point.

Still the misunderstandings continue between the two main’s.

come on Maina, are you trying to kill Eripiyo? :v it's cute seeing her trying tho
i actually wanted her to join in the picture at the end, but ofc that's not going to happen

the 3rd guy almost killed himself falling downstairs because of ... himself and his sister looking like Sorane LOOOOL

Reo is such a nice girl, maybe i should change from Maina to Reo stan :v

also... Yuka is an idiot, "change my mind"



after my slight disappointment of last week episode not having that many fun scenes, this episode already got better =D

This show is the creepiest thing I've seen since Elfen Lied. Which doesn't meant I'm not loving every minute of it.

But those 5 seconds lasted 14.75 seconds by my stopwatch.

On a side note, the ending is sooo good. "Momoiro Kataomoi" is a 2002 song by Aya Matsuura, sung here by Eripiyo's VA: "peach (or in this case salmon) colored unrequited love".

Outside of the otakus and their relationships with the idols this is very much more a traditional idol show + shoujo elements which is much less compelling tbh.

Still enjoyable though.

Yeah, the misunderstandings are a pain but thankfully, the episode wasn't entirely focused on the ones related to Maina and Eripiyo's relationship.

Overall, another decent episode. It was nice to see Sorane finally getting some characterization and though I was expecting a better reason for her to become an idol, I still enjoyed seeing how her first days with the new group were.

As for Motoi, the guy is indeed trash but man, I would be lying if I say I didn't laugh my ass off when he fell down the stairs in such slow and dramatic way xD

P.S.: So Reo can be smooth too, uh? And here I thought "Asteroid in Love" would be the yuri baiting show of the season...

Personally, this has been the funniest episode so far for me.

Eripiyo's face when Maina said that of course she hasn't eaten the kibi dango she gave her was pure gold.

"Eh? Nande?"

While Maina was glowing lol
