Really cute anime. Aira-chan's Aurora Jump was really amazing even though she is really bad in sports ^-^ Can't wait for the next ep.

It's great! The drawing is really cute :D and i love skating. Glad i can understand what they are talking without the sub though :3 Looking at first episode, its better than Lilpri because the characters are older!

I'm getting tired of most kids shows not being subbed or subbed properly (Jewel pets season 1 is oe example of a horrible job)- Because I get tired of all of these animes loaded with either Ecchi/hentai (On the verge in some cases), abuse or gory violence.
They seem to be in more abundance the last 2 seasons. If anyone finds out that this has been subbed (Different from the subs of the first season of jewel pets of course) please let me know.
There's not necessarily anything wrong with the other animes- there ok from time to time- but I like watching kids anime also (And I assume from it's synopsis that it is).

I agree. Please let me know as well, it seems like a fun series and judging by the OP I just downloaded, it is.

It was pretty nice. Typical storyline for an “I want to be an Idol!” show, but despite that it was really enjoyable. I could understand everything without subs, luckily.

The CG scenes looked quite awkward; it totally reminded me of IdolM@ster all the way. Even so, character design was cute.

I’ll keep watching it to get some childish enjoyment~
I think, then procrastinate.
Therefore, I am.

I think this was a nice 1st episode. I really like these type of anime with singing and dancing.
Can't wait for the next episode to be subbed ^^

I enjoyed the first episode. The characters are cute, and I laugh at how every non-essential characters is just an outline. Nice music as well.

Her mother looked kinda strange, I don't know why tho.

So how gay are we if we enjoyed the first episode but are yet a bit disappointed?

This is like a combination of Yumeiro Patissiere, Kirian Revolution, and Shugo Chara ...I'm quite scared of what this will turn out to be like

I especially hate how those three guys are most likely going to play a role in this story which I absolutely hate because I just KNOWW how it's going to turn out V____V;;

Not impressed at all. I'll give it one more episode even though I already feel like dropping this.

edit: On second thought, I don't even want to give this a chance since I'm watching enough anime this season already. Dropped.

Yea well, they'll be singing and they're using the OP as an IN so why not?

I wouldn't say I'm not impressed at all. It could have been a lot worse and it did well for a first ep. Designs are nice and such. I'll keep going up until episode 5 since the number of eps is unknown

Clumsy main protagonist with funny family + cute easy-going rival + handsome boysband of 3 = this should be fun XD

I didn't like the style and animation of Rhythm's dance though, it felt so off and 3D ;|

After absolutely loving the Aikatsu franchise it's time to pick up Pretty Rhythm, I hope that in the future I can look back to this comment with the same feeling of happiness as with that one.

First episode was a bit weird but I liked it, I had two issues and one can just be skipped, which is the IRL section at the start and of the episodes, that is... yeah, not comfortable to watch. The other is with the background characters being silhouettes even if they get to talk, this is done in other series but in this one it honestly looks pretty creepy, hopefully I will get used to it.

Now for the positives, I think I will like Aira quite a lot, I tend to be a fan of clumsy protagonists and hopefully she will not be one of the exceptions. The comedy was pretty good too and the CGI dance looked solid, especially comparing it to Aikatsu at the start which came out a year after.

Pretty Rhythm will have to deal with being the replacement of a series that set the bar really freaking high for me, I hope I get to have a great time with this one as well!

After watching first Aikatsu series, I think that this one is up my alley.
What's more... Aira's VA also voiced Marika Tachibana, Nyaruko and Popura...
I get to hear her and the others' VA here...

I prefer CGDCT like this than those unpure and degenerative story for girls...
It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines
and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it,
is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service.

Huh...

just finished watching Aikatsu's 2023 movie

decide to check what other kids-idol series there are, and remembered Pripara

searched a bit, and saw there were other series, and came across THIS series...

Where Pretty Rhythm is apparently the starting point of the "Pri" series even tho some series aren't really connected. (I did not know Pripara had some other series before it, lol)

That first episode was just awful tbh. I'm interested to see what other Idol show for kids other than Aikatsu but the animation is so low budget and the characters seem a little too one dimensional at least just from the first ep. Main character doesn't show any restraint when being dragged somewhere by random stranger especially opposite sex. That itself is already awful especially if the show was for kids. And you also can't expect her to directly perform in front of the audience without any practice. Skating isn't an easy thing to do without ever learning it but looks like the characters already able to do it. Main character was a little too clumsy and gung ho for my taste, meh but we'll see. The CGI looks awkward and the worst thing about the show look was the audience being just outlines lmao. Aikatsu raising the bar way too high for idol kids show.
