| Again, loving it as much as the other 3! But, I believe&agree with the other people that the show and characters just kind of make the cliches and stereotypical elements just float away because the interaction and action makes them almost invisible because I'm having so much fun just watching it <3 Anyways, I also liked getting some back-ground on Blue Rose and I was completely surprised to find out she was a high school student. But, even though she is a teenager the rest of the cast is still adults and she's struggling with decisions and other teenager worries - So, I don't mind. Gotta watch more~ c: |
| Interesting episode. Not a big fan of Blue Rose but I have to say that it was a great insight on how the characters view themselves as heroes. |
 |
| Interesting, so it seems that all the heroes know what each other look like outside of their uniforms. Not only that, but they all go to the same gym! Hah. So a lot of the "game" seems like a friendly rivalry. It was nice seeing Blue Rose's backstory. Hopefully we get the same with everyone else. Although wtf, she's like what? 17/18 at the most? A bit wrong having her in that outfit and so sexualised. :/ |
| Blue Rose/Karina is hot plus she is a lovely singer. Her Dad don't like her costume cause he probably thinks its too revealing for her age or something. xD |
"What has two arms, two legs, and is alive? Not your favorite character lol! xD" |
| I think Blue Rose changed her mind a little suddenly. Well, next episode looks good. |
| I had no idea that girl was that young. She's cute, though. |

| 「Ｊ＞Ｋ＞Ｗ」 事実。 |
| Great to see Karina take the stage this episode |
 |
| Hey, Tiger and Bunny get along pretty well in this episode. |
 |
| The piano was having a lot of black keys at some point, good that she returned so we don't have to discontinue the Pepsi advertisement. BTW, this is the first anime that didn't play with the word.. I have seen "Pempi" LOL. Another great episode. |
| Pretty good. I don't mind her at all tbh. The teenage thing kinda adds more zing into it but the only quality i didn't like is her bratty and spoilt behaviour. |
Alone on a Friday night? Remember that DIO did nothing wrong! |
| love this episode :D glad we got to know Blue Rose more!!!! and yeah she is really scared of machine gun as seen in episode 1! Blue Rose is still beautiful even as a normal girl as Karina Lyle :P i love her Tsundere attitude!! please freeze me Blue Rose!!! next episode is gonna be ace :) |
| Was a good episode. I really like Karina's attitude too~ |
| Uh... I wasn't expecting her to be so young? I thought she'd be a college student? /shrugs This episode was okay. Interesting to see it from her perspective and I'm glad that they gave her some sort of personality, even if it wasn't ideal. |
| it was cool that we got to see some backstory on Blue Rose, hopefully we get to see some more on the other heroes. |
| Nice focus on Blue Rose this time, it's good to see some other heroes real life and what not! Let's see what's next though. |
 |
| Blue Rose ftw! Nice song. |
  |
| Man, this show is hilariously cliched. |
 |
| Looks like Blue Rose got some development this episode. I don't really like her as of now but hopefully she gets more interesting. The main thing that bugged me was how fast Blue Rose got over to the oil rig. Seriously how did she get there so damn quick?! I would totally caress Blue Rose's fine ass though... Good episode 7.5/10 |

| A hero quits her job but returns on the same episode (like literally 5 minutes later) with the reason that she wants to help people after all. I dont know, that episode was a bit silly and unnecessary. Still love each one of them. <3 |
| <3 |
| What a long after-ending. Nice episode anyway, things are starting to pick up. |
  |
| Great episode, the things it covered are some of the best reasons I'm watching this. It's good to know that Blue Rose isn't doing her job halfheartedly anymore. |
|
| Well that phrase didn't make much sense considering the situation. |
| That smile at the end though |
"Signature removed"   |
| I actually like the fact that blue rose was a teen idol, instead of being the usual cliched use of it, the themes explored enhanced the show. For one, it did a great merger between selling her hero persona as well as mixing in her singing ability and showmanship. You can imagine Blue Rose pulling in the big figures for those idol groomed companies (japan, korea) in music, merchandise and other consumerist crap. Instead of glorifying sex appeal required by female performers and in anime, especially at a morally grey area in terms of her age, it actually shows the parent's disapproval, and covers the fact that her father doesn't like the costume but sees the necessity like her mother to take on this job to advance her career. I love it. While I wouldn't dare say that this is on the same level as "perfect blue", apart from "perfect blue" can you name an anime that explores these themes? Another cool thing they covered was the nitty gritty aspect of being an up and coming performer at a young age. She clearly pulls in the money but the cost, is her social life is virtually nonexistent and her schooling is disregarded from the pursuit of learning to answering all the questions. It reminds me of many teenage idols or child stars who blew up in the full glory of the camera as witness. E.g. Michael Jackson, Lindsay Lohan. So what's the problem, I admit the drunk bar scene is a problem, and Blue Rose resolution to choose being a hero after all, after that what's cliched about it? If you were in her shoes, could you watch people die, people you know as well, so you could pursue your singing career? |
| Nothing can happen until you swing the bat. |
| Why is Steven Spielberg a teacher? |
| Episode focusing on Blue Rose. Well damn she really is a little brat |
 |
| I was kinda hoping they didn't go down the "Blue Rose suddenly wants to be a hero again" path - too predictable. Other than that, good episode. |
 |
| The opening already gave a face reveal pre the post ending scene last episode. I kinda figured that Karina was just putting up with the hero business because it serves as a springboard for her singer career. Validation is nice to have, but satisfaction of doing something for society is better, right? Or maybe I'm just an old fashioned fool and all of us should start recording our good deeds. Clichéd episode, but Blue Rose is at last on the right track. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Karina is such a good girl. |
| nice episode around the frozen queen!!! kekeke |
| Good character development |
