This week features Risa, the lone wolf of the group and this time there is talk about an audition for a film! Plus it's for the main character of the film too!

It was great to see a bit more of Risa and Haru considering they weren't too present in the first few episodes considering the focus was on some of the others but it was nice to see Risa mentioning about her papa because she's always loved and admired her papa so much ahahah
It was nice because that sort of excitement coming from her was pure and innocent.

We actually do get to see two cameos within the episode, they'll be talked about in the episode spoiler below.


The ED for this episode ofc was Risa's solo image song "GEMSTONE" which isn't too much of a surprise but what they did with the ED was really good and didn't follow the past episode ED's with the usual still shots of scenes but instead we got something that felt a little bit like an MV, especially at the start.
We get stills tho for the ED but they did a showcase for all the girls (mainly focusing on Risa too) wearing in more mature clothing with makeup on and everything.

It was a really fashionable episode and I was very satisfied with this one too!
Looking forward to next week already again!

Here's Risa's solo image song in non-credit form:


and next week's preview, with a focus on Haru next week:


Appearances of other idols as seen in preview in next week's episode:
(Spoilered in case you want a surprise as to which other idols from the series might be featured)

It'd be great as well if in Deresute too that next time she gets a new SSR it would take inspiration from that because she honestly looks really nice with that hairdo, makes her look a lot more mature as well!

Eyy incest episode. Risa want to marry her daddy. Should rated 18+ with incest topic. But 18+ rated anime with bunch of loli seems very wrong πŸ˜£πŸ˜–

Oh there is a lot of 18+ loli stuff. Including with incest if that's what you're interested in. ;a

As for the episode I think it was a little weaker, it had a bunch of idea that it didn't really do much with. Like YonaiP needing to scold Risa, Risa being too dependent on her dad, her being distant to the other idols. All these were brought up but then kind of didn't go anywhere. Well the episode was still enjoyable which is the important part. Also nice fashion.

Well the distant part was solved with the costume research, can't say the same with the rest we don't even know what's up with her dad really lol, and I'm convinced she'd probably doesn't get more attention by her parents based on the chat messages.

Yeah true but I'm not really satisfied with how that feels like it kinda happened off-screen between scenes rather than actually being addressed. And the other two didn't really go anywhere at all. I liked the episode but it just feels like there's something I'm missing on what's supposed to be the main point or they didn't have time to actually do the stuff they wanted to do. Could be I'm thinking too much or my expectations are just wrong.

RISA may act like a bitch, but she is pretty lmao
Also when she dressed up for the movie she looked like the girl from Metamorphosis by Shindo L 
Also Haru is just so gorgeous and charming, every single scene of her was 10+/10

It's so funny when she said she want to marry her dad and even want to be prime minister for that πŸ˜‚
I've always liked her getup and seeing her with that many costumes in anime and the ED is such a bless, she's very cute and sexy 😭😭😭
She's very dedicated and now grow to like her friends more, that bits of them helping her and her performance scenes as secondary character are so good!
The best episode so far imo.

This was such a good one, I wasn’t a huge fan of Risa before this but now she might be one of my favorites. I wasn’t expecting the stuff with her dad, I know it’s a kid thing to want to marry a sibling or one of your parents but she is a bit old for it, even then I found it sweet and comedic lol, it makes me want to see her dad so I can witness his awesomeness. And Risa went through it a bit when it came to this audition, but seeing producer have that talk with her and the rest of the girls help her out was really nice, gives me the warm fuzzies lol.

And wow did she have hell of a glow up for the role, she looked completely different but she fit it so well, she should rock the glasses more often lol, and of course I loved the touch of the leopard print hairpin from producer. And Risa’s ED was very good, I think it had the best visuals so far for sure. I know I’ve said this several times but this is definitely a favorite episode of mine so far.

Also poor Haru didn’t get to play soccer, she better get paid back for being robbed several times when her episode comes around lol.

This was a very sweet episode!! It was quite nice to see her getting along with everyone and for her to show in a movie πŸ’• Something I wonder though... do her parents actually pay any attention to her? Like, I don't know, but Risa feels like she is really lonely. Like never actually saw her an scene of her being with her parents at home, and only at messages or by voice call... that kind of concerns me honestly, wish they would have elaborated on that more lol

I liked this one quite a lot. I wasn't really a fan of Risa before but this episode made me like her a lot more. Also it was quite based of them to make Risa talk about marrying her father lol. I'm surprised those lines weren't censored or edited over here.

She needs correction but for me she's the sexiest and hottest cutest and prettiest IM@S U149 girl.

And best episode so far.

I really wonder just how many outfits they're going to have by the end of the season, it feels like everyone wears something different every ep
In fact they even change outfits in the same ep



How many outfit changes can we have in one episode? i dunno
I actually wonder if they're just reusing them from previous episodes
Surely momoka cant possibly have 10 or 20 different outfits. surely?


It would be really funny if the order really is haru>chie>koharu>kaoru, surely what are the odds
Now that the ep is over, I just realized, I dont think we directly saw any other new girls this ep.
(Also they sure must be spending lots of effort on making a different ED every ep)

Damn, Risa sucks, I couldn't care less for her, everything about her is bad, and even disgusting, and I'm not talking about her dressing like a btch, by far the worst girl here.
Sorry if my english is bad (γ£Λ˜β–½Λ˜)っ~~~
Btw, cry about it.

I love this show so much!! It's so sweet! Honestly maybe even more than the 2011 one, although I need to rewatch that one pretty badly it's been a long time. I thought Risa was just lolicon bait but she's really not very sexualized, I think she just wants to look more mature than she is for her dad's approval, and her efforts are just a bit misguided.

What kind of movie were they making? Looks like some kind of mix between edgy mahou shoujo and MariMite, lmao. Also, of course, only in the animemanga, you can see a 14-year-old girl who wants to become prime minister only in order to legitimize the Swedish family between parents and their daughter.

@BonBonToro They have a classic ikemen onna x bishoujo unit and dynamic in general, so their interactions are expected. Something like Makoto and Yukihiko from 2, but with less homoeroticism.
