| THAT WAS SO CUTE XD |
| well done. really Solid |
| Shirayuki= Most Perfect Female MC ever |
| I thought this was only gonna be a short anime, but it's still okay as a full 25-minute per episode. Also, |
| I loved this. It had a sort of "Lucky Star" vibe, yet it was actually a bit more entertaining. And the idea is so fresh *^*! |

| I'm torn. I want to know more about seiyuu (why not just translate it to "voice actor"?) work but the first episode felt like a half-baked Shirobako episode. Characters are not natural but more "archetypy" and obviously moe (high school girl and kawaii ichigo girl, come on), segments with the talking puppet also lack in narrative flow. It feels like someone at Gonzo watched Shirobako, then realized it sold and decided that's the way to revive the studio. Throw in some Evangelion and huzzah, we're ready to get those BDs selling. It's not bad, but I think I'll also wait for more episodes to come out and read more reviews about this one before deciding to hop into story. |
| LOL I jumped out of my seat when i heard Zankoku na Tenshi xD |
| This was a god first episode. It was fun to watch and both the OP and ED are awesome. Can´t wait to see more of it. |
| Holy Madoka! The Yuri is strong here! My Anime List  |
| Obviously inspired by Shirobako... but oh gawd they tried way too hard to make the characters moe.. chibi, klutzy, and all that cutesy crap. Not so much cute as it was annoying. And semi-forced dramatic scenes... It does cover some aspects of being a seiyuu that I like (greetings, seating, variety of people), but it makes me kinda cringe... We'll see where this goes. Zankoku na Tenshi was a nice surprise. Best part of the episode imo. XD |

| It was alright, but I'm not continuing. The characters are too "fluffy" for me and uninteresting. I started skimming around the 7 minute mark. One thing I really liked though was that Masako Nozawa played herself. That was a nice touch. |
 |
| I want a Ruka Suirenji and for those who does not know this was a manga created by the voice actress of Risa Asakaze of Hayate no Gotoku and Hata Kenjiro the mangaka of Hayate no Gotoku before Shirobako was out. |

LEGOF said: I hate MC girl btw. Her character is annoying and her character design is awful. It's probably intentional to fit her rookie archetype, but I hate it. http://myanimelist.net/character/123119/Futaba_Ichinose Manga char design is better e.e |
| Better than I expected! It's pretty fun learning about seiyuus. I don't have much of a problem with the girls being a bit moe. Loved that ed...slipped in one of my favourite anime songs of all time <3 |

Zankoku na Tenshi was a nice surprise. Best part of the episode imo. XD 'just get over yourself already' was all I could think halfway through about futaba, she really was annoying...I kinda agree with that collegue of her if you can't get one line right (let alone one single word before that) you shouldn't be doing the job.... The doll does explain a lot about how the seiyuu work goes though, yes (like the Shirobako bear & goth loli doll did), but I wish she wouldn't have spend pretty much half the episode greeting people... Goku's seiyuu was a pleasant suprise though, I quite liked that :D I love that old lady voicing the strongest in the universe xD |
 |
| This is riding a bit too much on Shirobako's success. I mean, a doll... just like in that anime. And it monologues... Wish it could be more original in that aspect. Apart from this, I pretty much loved it. It got such a good, realistic atmosphere. I am in. I am definitely in. Ichigo is waifu-material btw, so cute. The ED is very different, so many different genres. Love it. The OP is very nice, too. |

| Hmmmmmmm Hikari Sakishima + Miuna Shiodome = Hikari Shiodome? |

| I actually kind of enjoyed this. |
| lovelive is relevant and the rest is garbage it's joke |
| It was nice, kinda funny, will watch some more to see if I keep going... |
 |
| Well that was an enjoyable 24 minutes. Went by a lot faster than I thought it would. That Cruel Angel's Thesis in the ending though. |
| That was brilliant. I think Korori would give me nightmares if I had... it... in my room. |
| There is no such thing as shit taste. Only idiots who think everyone should have the same taste as they do. |
| *Extremely* annoying episode and characters. I knew she was going to yell her line and spill her spaghetti everywhere and I still felt disgusted when she did. |
| This show will be good, I found some similarities with Shirobako. For example at the episode 23 of Shirobako when Zuka came in the "studio" to introduce herself before the audition, the same thing happened here but in the other side. I will love this show, nice first episode. |
| An okay episode. That guy is an ass but he got a point. But don't let it get to you and don't give up! It doesn't matter if this anime is following Shirobako's footsteps, in fact I like there's another anime that's about the anime indusry in a less serious tone. |

| That was highly amusing. As a somewhat seiyuu otaku this was awesome. Loved the middle schooler nailing her lines perfectly. That Evangelion ending song. |
 |
| This is the Shirobako of the VAs. But more centered to VAs. did I just hear Goku's voice from Nozawa? 5/5. |
 |
| Interesting. Looks like Seiyuu is the worst job ever. |
 |
| Decent start of this anime, the setting and pacing are pretty decent! Let's see wha this anime has to offer us! |
 |
| How did you voice a chara with big boobs? H-Howww?? xD Awww, Nozawa-san.. I hope she's really friendly IRL... Well I never met her so I don't know xD The ED is so cute!! Especially the cruel angel one xD |

"Signature removed"   |
| I'm glad Gonzo is doing something that I want to watch, its be so long. Also the ending with the Evangelion op is awesome |
 |
| Not bad, it was kinda funny, especially when they made Ichigo to sound like a big breasted girl. |
 |
| Pretty decent and watchable. I like the fact it isn't about a bunch of girls going to school and their everyday life or something similar that's already seen a bazillion times before. Anime about lives of voice actors is, if nothing, refreshing and a nice change from many unoriginal slice of life premises. The MC is also likable, as well as Ichigo and that little girl. This has some potential. |
 I respect your opinion as long as you respect mine. |
| An interesting view of the seiyuu industrie. The ED is pure gold. |
| It was a nice start although the excess of comedy the used regarding Futaba's nervousness felt a bit annoying for moments. But that aside, I really enjoyed it. The extra information about how things in a recording studio works was also nice. And the ED with them singing Evangelion's OP was unexpected but great nevertheless :D I hope they sing a different song each time an episode ends. |
| Yuki is always awesome. Now she can also seiyuu. |
 |
| The episode did not convince me at all even though there was a considerable effort on the part of the narrative to make people laugh with funny moments and situations, but they were not entirely sufficient; maybe it's my fault that he wasn't in the mood, or it was the character designs I didn't like at all, but the element that convinced me to continue it was the ending, perhaps because during it the protagonists sang a piece of the opening by EVA, fantastic! |
 |
| Just watched this today and I like that they included that Seiyuus have to actually choose clothes that do not make a lot of noise since the mic picks up on it. Nice reality touch there. Actually, a lot of this episode is quite true int he industry. I wonder why the score is so low... They even made some of the characters look like their seiyuu... |

| As much I like Rie Takahashi's voice normally, the energetic nature of her character made this episode a real struggle for me to make my way through. I just about managed it, but this is as far as I'll be going with it as I can't bring myself to stomach 13 episodes of flustered Rie Takahashi obsessing over being respectful to everyone and panicking every 30 seconds. |
