| She's Misato, Ai's (neighbor) sister. DiverDiva's new song, Eternal Light, rocks!! especially the rapping part from Ai. Online live is a very good idea for them for using to increase their viewers. Smol Ai lmao... She could join the gang with smol Kasumin, as well. ๐คฃ The next episode will be about AใปZUใปNA . And, the end credit was very interesting with Shioriko's sister!, Kaoruko. It's definitely gonna be more drama and more intense for Shioriko. |

 |
| Yet another great performance. :) I really liked this episode because Ai and Karin got so much screen time. They have always been one of my favorite characters in Nijigasaki. |

| I think the pacing in this episode was a little bit fast, probably my least favorite episode for now, but still decent. Shioriko's sister looks cool btw. |
| YES! I'm happy that Ai's character got explored more. Not to mention, she threw out some nice rap during the song. As an Ai fan, I'm very happy. |
| so DD only gets one ep unlike Q4 who got 2-ish, considering a part of that was also Yuu. it was a good episode, nice to see misato. Song was a real banger tho. I appreciate the way DD formed through rivalry and how Karin convinces Ai in staying as a school idol in a way that ignites her competitiveness. |
 |
| Amazing episode! I'm loving this Season 2 so much, Ai was so pretty <3. Next episode my favourite group, AZUNA! :D |
| I really love it when they show outfits from the game. The song is nice too. I hope they will continue this until my favorite character Setsuna. |
| Production was notably more reserved for the most part this episode up until the DiverDiva's performance. It looked hella clean and was done exceptionally well, as expected from the two of the more likable members of Nijigasaki. I am a bit vexed by the rather quick pacing regarding the little conflict with Ai and her sister, but other than that, it was a decent episode at least. Karin dropped a quote quite similar to that from Hiratsuka-sensei from Oregairu Zoku, funny enough. The new character introduced at the post credits scene has me quite curious as to how the story will change up now. |
 |
| I didn't think an episode centered around my best girl would almost make me cry, but of course it found a way, by making it about the other thing that makes up my identity: depression! There's not really much I can say because I have a lot of my own things that I still have to figure out, but I'll say I'm proud of Misato taking that step forward and finding a way to smile. DiverDiva is born! And their debut performance was great! Song is a certified banger, and I marked out so hard because I knew they'd throw in some of Ai's All Stars costumes. HER HARLEY QUINN OUTFIT! HER WEDDING DRESS OH MY GOODNESS!!!! I love her! Great episode. Ai, keeping being that beacon of joy in your onee-chan's life. As you are in mine! <3 I was thinking there was going to be absolutely zero Lanzhu in this ep, surprising because the season seemingly revolves around her. But nah she shows up in the post-credits.... actually that doesn't really matter because HOLY SHIT KAORUKO!!! Next week is A-ZU-NA's turn to shine! |
 |
| I liked this song a lot too, I gotta say this season is getting better than the previous one. |
| It's refreshing to see LL touch on a slightly heavier topic and it works well with a side character. (Im looking at you idoly pride and selection pro). |

| Ohh nice focus on Ai and Karin this time, especially with the great performance at the end! |
 |
| Ai + Karin = W Favorite episode so far from this season. This series is worth a watch for the performances alone. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Not a bad episode overall, but DD is my least favorite subunit (in terms of music style) in Nijigaksaki, so I didn't care much for the song. Excited for AZUNA next week, and surprised to see Shioriko's sister. As always with this season, I really have no idea how they are going to adapt Mia/Lanzhu/Shioriko's stories. |
| An amazing episode~! Ai trying her best for her older sister figure is so sweet of her, but as Karin said you really can't make everyone smile Loved the dynamic between Ai and Karin, and their song is epic!!! Shioriko's sister showing up at the end, wonder what she'll bring Hyped for AใปZUใปNA's episode now ^o^ |
| Ah~ good old Karin. Of course you see everyone as your rival and nothing else. Seriously, gotta love the slight tsundere vibes she gives off sometimes. Overall, pretty nice episode and probably my favorite one from this second season. Best girl Ai received a lot of screen-time and I gotta appreciate all the Karin x Ai moments we got. |
| That was a banger of an episode, love to finally get some Karin focus, she’s definitely one of my favorites, as well as some Ai focus which honestly she grew on me more this time, her and Karin complement each other a lot. And I absolutely loved DiverDiva’s performance and song, that was a jam for sure, also got some nice butt shots lol. It was also nice to see some more of the outfits from the game, I don’t play it but I recognized them from art I’ve seen. Lastly it was nice to see Misato get over her situation thanks to Ai’s performance and message, it was a nice conclusion, and now Karin has two rivals lol. Next week looks like Shizuku focused and I am 100% ready for that, she’s up there with Karin for me. |
| All I can say is awesome performance from DiverDiva <33 |

| peak cool and passion clashing together all the songs this season have continue to be bangers while the episode was focused on Ai most of it was on the troubles of her childhood friend which also connected Karin thought it was handled well enough for a side character |
 |
| Karin likes panda. lol Ai seems to talk differently now from her voice in season 1. Her voice sounds cuter this time. Karin and Ai are a good unit together. Their performance made me smile. So inspiring. glad that sickly girl feels a bit better now. Ai was still quite young when they met, so she must have been in the hospital for many years already. |
| Nothing wrong with the events of this episode in their own right, but as presented they definitely felt extremely rushed. That's kinda inevitable with how many characters this show has to focus on, but it's unfortunate that some of this episode's intended emotional impact was dulled because of it. Even more so cos I should have really liked an episode focused around Ai and Karin, but instead thought this was comfortably the second season's weakest episode so far. That said, their performance as DiverDiva was excellent; Ai rapping really caught me by surprise, but it was one of many elements that made this such a good performance and much better than QU4RTZ's weak effort last time. Also, I'm hoping that Kaoruko's appearance in the post-credits scene means this season will finally do something with Shioriko soon, cos as it stands she's probaly had less screentime so far than what Misato (a side character) got this episode. |
| AI = A = 4 = AI always come at episode 4... !!! |
 |
| Giving for granted (at least, probably everyone including me hopes for the same) that Misato won't have any more major health problems, there was only one negative aspect this time... that very last shot of the previews with Ayumu. Please, please, please, don't let her fall into the flood again. Couldn't even finish cheering for Kaoruko's introduction because of that final scene, she deserves better and with all my good will i won't ever understand why so many people WANTS her to be a yandere type. No, just... no. Returning to the actual episode... after Qu4rtz had two in a row with focus on them, i expected DiverDiva to receive the same treatment but it seems it won't happen. However, it was good in making me return to like Ai and Karin a little more after... i had a falling out with both of them in late 2020 when they were my favorite characters from their generation. Karin was sort of mischievous when she was "i'll perform in your place and steal your fans if you stop being a school idol" and it was out of character for Ai to even tell that quote out loud, but it's possible that she saw offscreen a blue long-haired girl from another high school with a blue jacket and red bow tie ready to slap her if she actually quit... Jokes aside, it was good to see another side of a young lady always portrayed as cheery and outgoing. The song was pretty good and her rap was a welcome surprise... still remember when i met her the first time in the SIF mobile game and thought "she looks interesting but the voice is a little too squeaky, i hope it won't stick with her future songs", Luckily, it didn't. Final minor detail... it was cool to see them play Taiko No Tatsujin. |

| Uh that was too fast! That conflict which supposed to be heavy was resolved real quick. The rivalry emerged which led to the formation of DiverDiva was also fast paced. Don't get me wrong, I liked it. I am just complaining a little bit coz I'd like the story of DiverDiva to be longer than that since Ai is one of my favorites in Nijigaku hehe. (I'm sorry Shizuku and Kanata if I'll be unfaithful today but today's top spot for Ai. She stole my heart with her rap kyaaa) |
   |
| DivaDiver? DD? They both? Doubled! Oh the unit actually been revealed on the op! Well since the frame honestly too fast for me, its actually understandable when i missed that, right? Okay, what i got here? Ai love triangle. Tickling title, but suit well. After being separated with Rinarin cause she formed the sub-unit with Quartz, Ai also wanna try it, but with a little twist, online! Another flavor acquired when she introduced sister-type character that also mean well with the love triangle title while Karin be there as your rivalry-type character. Interesting episode, interesting Ai focused episode. A bit giving weird vibe with 'fast to start fast to finish' plot. But when thinking again, its understandable because no need more than one episode, Ai already stole my mind with all of her genkiness. Not to mention how the competitiveness of Karin, and sometimes her dishonest act, actually bring more color of the good mood to the episode. So, yeah, one episode for DD actually fine and received well to me *cope and seethe* xd... |

| Ngl the drama felt very forced to me. Even though I understood the drama with Misato and all, it just felt very weak and lackluster. It was still a decent episode though. |
| Good performance from Diver Diva. New character at the end looks cool. |
 |
| Ai + Karen is a huge W and the performance was heat. My faves from the series are μs's Snow Halation and Saint Snow's Self Control, this one is easily up there with them. |
| Awesome! Ai and Karin make a great unit together! Her oneechan too, I'll say one thing and that's I feel like that a lot. It's reassuring when you hear you're never too old for something. Shioriko seems very toned down and way more pleasant than in the game. She's actually being helpful. I'm glad. |
 |
| So far this is my favorite performance of the season. |
 |
| Starting to get bored watching this |
| How to convince Karin to do anything: "Just see it as us competing". |
