| Cute girls and the pv have some Yuri vibes,,YEEEEEEEEES I am all in |
 |
| Lol they've started making weird setting for idol animes these days. Thou Zombieland Saga was a hit and I loved it but will this be anything close? |
 |
| This make my heart go doki-doki. |
 |
Why did this come to my head from the promotional image and synopsis I don't think I'm even close lol  |

| If some Gekas ever makes it big on greek tv he should name his show "gekidol". |

| I'm kind of confused though, is Alice in Deadly School going to be a separate anime then, or is it going to be a separate segment in the same anime as Gekidol?:o |
| The anime idol seems to be enjoying the same fate as mahou shoujo, isekai and action shonen with their sharp leap into drama and grimdark after the traditional optimistic plots began to repeat itself and don't work. Not familiar with this franchise, but I hope it won't be similar drama for drama's sake and don't used it just as an "original" commercial gimmick.

Madoka was likewise not the first dark mahou shoujo, but it was after it that it literally turned into an ubiquitous trend. To such an extent that now trying to play traditional magical girl's tropes not-ironically will be perceived very weird. alpha_shadow said: I'm shocked this wasn't cancelled since it was announced back in 2016. Stop, are you saying that this was the show that was announced a few years ago after the success of GakkouGurashi? |
