Mixed Feelings
Uta Pri has pretty visuals, a fair cast and somewhat catchy the music. The question is would you watch it? Well, for any fan of music and for most girls/women that like nice eye candy, I'd say yes!

I admit I am a sucker for reverse harems, but I am interested to see whether the plot of the series makes it out to be even more worthwhile or just another pretty show. I have mixed emotions about the plot because of the main character, Haruka Nanami. Sure, she is innocent and hardworking, and that's great; however, the truth of the matter is that in a real-life scenario, our lovely Nanami would not even get into such a prestigious school.

That aside, throughout the series you do get to see each of the prospective idols interact with her and you get to know them individually. Of course for any girl who's to say you can't love them all!? The guys were handsome in their own ways and you see their specific talents, along with small, rural town Nanami growing into a more confident and musical young lady. The animation is detailed and the colors are crisp and unique, which was another draw-in factor, but not the main one.

When it comes to the quality of music, I'd say it's just slightly above average. The songs are catchy and fun. Some characters (or actual voice actors) try hard to sing well. I can hear strain and some inconsistency with this. Some shine more than others though.

The enjoyment factor is above average as well. The voice acting really pushes through, though as mentioned earlier, plot and character value are those weaknesses. Since this series has a second arc, I will be continuing to see what develops as our potential idols shoot for the stars!
