Elite60 said: Well, you gotta start somewhere and their first performance wasn't half bad at all. Just need more exposure. umm no. This isn't your ecchi anime, if you want exposure go watch some queen's blade or something.. Anyways this was a great episode. I felt bad when nobody showed up, but later on they started coming, even though it was a very few of them. And what it looks like to be the future members of U's, minus the 2 girls that were helping out. It was a great performance for it to have been their first live concert. Which means they are really talented. It sure makes me nervous for them, and then happy for them, which means the anime has gotten my full attention. Love it. And yeah I agree, the outfits were cute! Well looking forward next episode! |
 |
| Off too a good start.... |
 |
| That scene with the empty auditorium...arghhhh...my heart. |
 |
| Oh man ... That was sad in one side. |
 |
| Our blonde student council president is looking like a antagonist here She and the vice-prez will probably the last ones to join the group. Anyway, I'm looking forward to seeing all the group members assemble and perform live. |

| Dat CG is KILLING ME . But the emotions were strong imo and I like how this is going so I'll keep watching . |
 |
| Oh my god, the students were so stupid to not attend the concert. Their performance was so damn good! WTF LOL! I really like how Honoka is a very cheerful and energetic character. Umi reminds me of Mio from K-ON! a lot. xD The singing and song itself was so good. Looks like the girls who actually showed up to the concert will be joining the idol group. Can't wait for the school council president joins. :D |
 |
| It was sad to see the auditorium so empty :( but at least they did have a small audience. Their performance was great and Honoka's voice is really nice ;~; I'm excited for Hanayo to join, looks like she will next episode. |
| umi acts so much like mio from k-on! |
| If only their school had boys. They would have fill the room just to see them in their short skirt idol outfits.^_^ Still though kind of strange no one else got interested from all those brochures. It's not like they would have waste much time to simply go and see a song. gigglingidiot said: Are there going to be more girls singing in the idol group - or is it just going to be those 3? Anyway, who do you guys think is the best or worst singer? I loved Umi's voice, but, on the other hand, Kotori's voice was terrible. It sounds so childish. Of course they will be more girls singing, didn't you see the op? Japanese seems to like those silly high pinch voices for some reason though. Just look at the craziness around Miku from vocaloid which in all honestly her voice is terrible close to a good singing voice like the one playing Umi for example. And yeah Umi seems to have the most powerful strong voice. MoonxArtemis said: Elite60 said: Well, you gotta start somewhere and their first performance wasn't half bad at all.

| To bounce back from the sight of a non-existent crowd takes courage. Their performance of start:dash was really great, the lighting helped a lot. |
| too bad they didn't have many audiences.. though the performance is awesome !! |
 |
| This was done really well. I didn't expect the auditorium to be completely empty except for some "stalkers". Kotori's voice was way too high imo, to the point of not feeling real anymore. I'm looking forward to more of this as it's very entertaining. |
I almost never read discussions after I made my post, if you want to reply PM me or post on my profile page. |
| Is it just me, or do half of the parts of their dances look like MMD? When it gets to a long shot (wide shot) or extreme long shot (at any angle), it seems to use some kind of MMD program. Example of an iDOLM@STER MMD-ish thing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zW52Berp0aM |
| The performance was fantastic and I loved it! Its just too bad that their audience really didn't show up. Been listening to some μ's songs and I've gotta say I really like their works. |
 |
| Amazing outfits, amazing dance, amazing song, and amazing episode! VanishingKira said: I was all hyped for their first performance but when the curtains open and their was no one in the audience I was heart broken and nearly cried. I feel ya, I feel ya, that scene was very well done. |
 |
| I was expecting the audience to be almost empty but noone at all? That's just sad. Nevertheless, the show must go on. |
| There is no such thing as shit taste. Only idiots who think everyone should have the same taste as they do. |
| Loved the performance , a small taste of things to come ... |
 |
| Loved the performance. Episode was really good. |
 |
| That moment when the curtains open and you see absolutely no audience... |

| This episode was fantastic! Just "wow" on the buildup for the concert... how heart-stopping, nobody's there. Thankfully one person showed up so they could perform. I couldn't help but scream "put that over the PA!"... the place would have filled up. |
  |
| Hey, hey! Hey, start:dash!! |
 |
| My heart started racing right before the curtain opened and I felt so bummed out when no one was there. The performance was very uplifting and awesome though, it just sucked me right in and I couldn't look away. Love the song. I'm also convinced that one girl with red eyes and twintails is a tsundere. I hope they're able to fill the seats one day like Honoka plans, the sensation of being on stage in front of a completely full audience is otherworldly and satisfying. |
 |
| Just look at those empty seats. T___T |

| Their first performance was AMAZING!! I have a great feeling that they will improve later on through the series. |
 |
| Thank Honoka for being such a courageous individual who doesn't learn to give up no matter what happens. |
| I would have dropped this series if the auditorium had been full. So glad they're trying to be at least somewhat realistic about it. I wonder why Umi didn't just wear spats? |
| That empty auditorium.. I was kinda expecting that. But they performed well no matter what. Next time, other members to join? Trannosaurus said: I like how the performance went from CG to animation a lot. It looked nice. Yeah, they are doing very good job with CG, close-ups are hand-drawn and those far shot from a distance are CG. It feels nicely animated overall. |

| The scene when the girls almost broke out in tears was heartbreaking. Good on them for continuing the live! |

| decent episode but i couldn't stop smiling during their performance. i can't wait for the next performance! |
 |
| Was expecting it, but damn, pretty brutal. |
| I loved their outfits, and the concert was great! Love that song. Omg my heart broke when I saw the empty seats and no audience...that was so feelsy but like once that girl walked in and they started performing and then we saw all the other girls watching and/or listening, it made me so much happier. Did not expect Umi to have stage fright she is so cute! Love her, her skirt issue was funny cause their school skirts are above their knee too so LOL :3 |

| I love the uniforms very cute. lol tough crowd there was only like 5 people there which are all future Muse members and after all that hard work too, but Honoka won't give up! I spy a Nico. <3 |
"What has two arms, two legs, and is alive? Not your favorite character lol! xD" |
| Ganbare!!!!!!!! |
 |
| the director of this anime is gold 3d models are fugly, but otherwise this anime is really great and definitely surprised me. I'm in for a good time :D |
| The first 2 episodes were good, but this episode is the one that's made me definitely look forward to the future of the characters! Good episode =) |

Where are you people in 2015 :( it's killing me too, but nowadays people rather hyping 3D which is super sad. It seems to be a future of anime, which is even more sad. It is not bad Anime, but 3D is ruining it (like in every other series with ugly CG) Btw, the setting is almost identical to K-on. There is basically Mio, Mugi and Yui. |
| Dub = fake crap. Always. |
| The costumes were super cute! And I was expecting an empty auditorium but it still was sad to watch. |

Really good performance, can't wait for their audience to grow! |
 |
| Rewatching this and I got tearyeyed knowing how far they came. |
| Nice episode, was pretty embarrassing to see that there were no audience even though it was expected. Kurogashi said: LEGOF said: Bah, why the hell do they think that using such abnormally high pitched voices is a good idea? Don't get me wrong: I am not foreign to seiyuu pitches, and how high they can go. However, that glasses girl (who looks trashy, might I add) and silver haired idol (don't care what her name is; if she's worth knowing I would know her name) sound like someone chipmonked their already high pitched voice. Bah. On the plus side, I liked the music and visuals. Black twin-tailed tsundere loli looks like she'll be my favorite. But of the 3 current idols, Mio 2 takes the cake. The other two are ****-tier idols. Ladies and gentlemen, we have ourselves a critic. Judging anime idols must be a prerequisite for being the next Simon Cowell. Must be pretty fun to mock anyone who dares to criticise anime in anime forum. |
