Even among all this drama, it's still kinda nice to hear idols being able to express their love of music to the crowd.

The Summer style performance this episode was filled with energy and passion.

Trickstar Practicing. More of Ra*bit and 2winks collaboration. Eguchi-san's character suggesting to separate into two groups of 3 members (Blue and Pink teams).

One day before the actual performance and thinking about the time when they won. lol @ "Hokke Pose". Maeno-san's character tried his best, but not good enough.

The teacher is ex-idol? And Uchida-san's character's father was his rival and was in poor condition. After seeing him, he got serious about crushing Trickstar.

That pink hair character knows that weird Eve member.

Ra*bit and 2winks performance is such a cute fanservice.

Toriumi-san's character selling takoyaki?! He knows the main girl?

Wow, Chibi idols while explaining about the formation.

Eve overshadowing Trickstar. Morikubo-san's character feeling weird the day before because he saw the song to the arcade game was released. He guessed that Eve used it to advertise and got Eve's fans. He still talked to Uchida-san's character that he wants to interact while performing. That encouraged other members of Trickstar.

Trickstar admit lost, but they need to be stronger. Midorikawa-san's character actually cheers on them.

ED: "Yukai Tsuukai That's alright! (愉快痛快 That's alright!)" by MaM

After ED, that member from Knights returns. "Judgement"?

I continue to be baffled by EnStars.

WHAT THE HELL WERE THOSE OUTFITS ON 2WINK AND RA*BITS?????
With how restrained most anime can be about boys when it comes to fanservice - this one included - they then go and give them outfits like that.
They give outfits like that to the two units that come off as absolute shotas - at most maybe 12 year olds.
They come off as shotas - despite apparently being 15-16.
And they're given some of the most out-of-this-world, borderline crossdress outfits.
I just ... I just have so many issues with this that I'm struggling to wrap my head around it all. It's weird upon weird upon weird.

That aside - once again, we're skipping performances. Several, apparently, if the post-ed shots are anything to go by. 2 episodes for one story (event, i guess, they were in the game?), and it still seems inadequate, because they gotta rush or outright skip through major parts. Not helping the enjoyability tbh.

I can't believe they did Jun and Sagami moment omg!! Jun saying ''Goddam!'', can't wait to hear him saying this again. I'm still crying over Eden opening. I'm just sad the summer live performance is mostly talking... I wanted a real performance... Now I'm waiting for autumn live and SS.

I feel like 2wink and Ra*bits (even Mama and the post-ending shot with Undead, Ryuseitai, Fina and Akatsuki) were here just for fanservice, but people who love them are happy to see them. Next week is Judgement, I guess people are happy, it's not Checkmate but it's Knights story so.

I'll tell you why Jun's dad career as an idol is over, because he's married. In idol, marriage = permanent retirement, no exception, no one want to idolize married idol.

That was a great performance.

This drama between Jun and Jin is very interesting.

Okay so even though Hiyori has an attitude problem, he's kinda right about Hokuto looking gloomy. Gloomy guys with flat hair are just meh. His smile was surprising, but he shoulda owned it rather than stepping down and asking them how it was.
OMG Nito & the Ra*bits!!! The way the twins and them are having such fun working together (unlike Trickstar + Eve) and their costumes for this festival are even more fun and cute!!! AAAAHHHH!!!! Why can't we see their song? PLEASE
They just showed a heavily edited version of Trickstar/Eve song which was a cute performance and Yuuki found out that Hiyori & Jun were using the concert to promote themselves online, and that was why their fans dominated the audience... but they dealt with it so well it inspired Jun and even Hiyori's words to Hokuto were so kind, and unlike scumbag Eichi, clearly sincere (because he's so blunt). He's kind of a prick but he's definitely very pretty, and he has the perfect smile for being a performer even if he's a backstabber. I still like him more than Eichi, and Eichi probably encouraged them to join the summer concert for that very reason so it would be at the same time as their release.
