THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
I have to admit that the seniors do the idol business better than the newbies, who are still getting ignored by the fans expecting the well-known Pop'N Star for fan events, especially Kokoro who's still cross-dressing like a girl. Damn, just make him a girl already, not remain being a trap.

Seeing that Kokoro has a long journey ahead of her fan event due to bad weather, Principal Kuma asking the newbies to take advantage of this opportunity and kick off the concert, is better than nothing even if the fans are expecting her arrival. Momosuke and Runa supporting him all the way is a nice touch.

Kokoro fans warming up to the newbie groups in such a short time, how far they'd come from being calefare to actual idol groups taken seriously. If nothing, a plot armour of progress but eh, a well-needed one. The melon bun that brings the tsundereness, Kokoro reminds me of Shakugan no Shana's female MC Shana, the melon bun girl.

The first step in a long run of successes.

wow this episode was really nice, seems like their performances went well so thats nice. they're finally starting to sell cds. really respect kokoro-chan here, she kept persevering even through all those problems and stuff, her friends were also really nice and she looked super cute too. quite cool quick backstory with the flashback for her. also, what the principal said at the end... hope they can make it in time

also... NaRuTo rEfErenCE?? (probably not)

Crossdressing idol is very rare in anime so I'm glad this is a dedicated episode for him even if I like straight idols.

This show has been a big fanservice for Kokoro fans lol. He always got some good amount of screen time and this whole episode was dedicated to him. It was a really cute episode.

Nice. Loved seeing the support for the first year Ichu artists. They have improved a lot. Also loved Kokoro's friends supporting him!

Fortunately, Kokoro made it to Tokyo after all. The bad weather almost ruined everything.

It's so nice how his friends helped him in a though situation.

Good job from F∞F and I♥B with warming up the audience while Kokoro was getting there. This time, the audience really loved them. :)

And they are finally selling their CDs. Awesome!
