| Good to know the athletic festival turned out to be a success. Unfortunately, it looks like there was some drama at school with some questionable photos spreading around. Props to Juri for her loyalty and stepping in to help Hiyori. She's honestly one of the best friends Hiyori made in this show. |
 |
| Well, first things first ... someone should call the police on that suspicious black van full of weirdos before someone's child gets hurt, just a thought. Life seemed to be going well for our heroine, everything was going smoothly ... ... until it wasn't, crazy women ruining everything ... jealousy is hell of a drug, aint it. |
 |
| Its amusing seeing the two tip toe around the question but at the same time its cute seeing their worry for Hiyori. In the aftermath of the track day its nice to see their classmates be less standoffish towards them especially the guys. But this concurrent development between them is nice to see. Given that they are in the same class and school it was only going to be a matter of time before someone found out but man leaking those photos at the main noticeboard is just cruel beyond measure. But at times like this having friends that will help you like Hina, Juri and Chizuru is indeed a godsend. But man thats one hell of a situation they got themselves into though. |

| Man this just shows how easily bullying can start. But how didn’t they hear the camera going off and someone snapping pictures lol?? Anyway fuck people who jump to conclusions and try to ruin people’s lives simply for personal gain or obsession. Even if the boys and hiyori did have something going on that’s their business. Was really happy to see Juuri stand up for hiyori in front of the school. Everyone needs a friend like that. It’s time for lipxlip to come public with hiyori as their manager in training tho to clear up misconceptions! |

| As annoying as Hiyori is, I feel bad about the harassment she had to endure. I can't help but cheer for her like an ape on Crystal. She should flip the bird on those monsters, if it was me though. I wonder how will she handle this. |

| Just as I appreciated last episode on how the school can be chill about her interactions with the guys because they treat other girls just as friendly... oh well. I forgot why she couldn't say she's a manager in training, that would have solved all the problems. I liked the way her friends reacted though. Also, about Chizuru I have this suspicion for several episodes now that she's a closeted fan of LipxLip and possibly Chuutan who sends all those fan letters is actually her. In this episode we saw another glimpse of her attention to the boys despite claiming she's not interested. In the end, I wonder why the teacher had that lingering staring at the photographs in the bin. I hope he'll be supportive and not the other way around. |

| So why did she not use a chair to get her bag? Third place and no personal followup? No scenes of awards etc? Her entire buildup and reason for being in tokyo just got screened in 5 frames? And why don't they just say shes their manager instead letting her get harrased? The entire premise was already bad, now it is even worse. I liked this anime until this episode, now it absolutely makes no sense |
| dood, the scene where he was not giving her the papers triggered me so much she should have broken his arm and being like "well, u werent giving me the papers so i made you" |
 |
| Surely the company had an excuse prepared prior to this event happening. I mean, they're classmates and sit next to each other, just say they're friends are something. Plus, they weren't even kissing or nothing, just hanging out, so who's to say otherwise. |
 |
| Man it was all so lighthearted in the beginning, Hiyori was jamming to LIPxLIP before her run, the lads were hyped up and playing basketball, and now someone is out to ruin Hiyori with those photos, and potentially Aizou and Yuujirou too. You hate to see it lol, and all those girls being mean to Hiyori hurt as well. I know that kind of culture surrounding idols is kinda true to the real world, and it’s even worse here giving the idols go to their school. Hopefully everything is figured out and the stalker is discovered, but next episode’s title sounds like we’re not out of the woods yet. Scandal by Queen still plays in my head when I read this episode’s title lol. |
| The LIP×LIP boys are fine and all, and Hiyori's about to take her step into her dream as an athlete, firing each other up for what's about to come their way, entering into Countdown Live. But all is about to take a huge turn with the imposed scandal as cancel culture starts to arouse on Hiyori's way with the photos, and this could turn out ugly as expected. It's these moments where her true friends Juuri and Chizuru stood for her in the face of fire, but when it comes to the clueless Aizo and Yujiro, this incident absolutely must not reach their ears. Hiyori can think that she could stand on her own, but it's this scenario where new friends like Setoguchi-senpai really helps to calm her down. Unfortunately, these scathing photos have spread everywhere and they're really in a crossroads to trend for all the wrong reasons. Hopefully the perpetrator could be found, and the whole incident be'd not one big scoop. |

| Ahhh we're getting into Hiyori's second song and it sure feels a lot worse to actually feel the bad atmosphere around her... I don't want to see Hiyori suffer like this but I definitely want to see the rest of the song adapted. To suffer for good content... Well, at least the start of the episode was really cute. |
| What pricks these two are, bullying her in the middle of a test. But apart from that, solid episode. Someone revealed Hiyori's secret, causing her a lot of trouble. It's a lot similar to what happened to Akane in Oshi no Ko. Best episode so far. |
 |
| Well i already know this kind of thing will happens sooner or later. The plot is just too well known for me. Too soon for Hiyorin praying her life to be going so well af, its actually not xd. Though, imo, quitting Hiyorin as the manager feels like it can be cramp on this episode too. But they decide to prolonged the gloom vibe, with noone said the decision even from the management side, until ofc till the next episode. Although, i am okay with the direction, but just a little.... |

| This level of drama was to be expected. In Japan, fan girls can be frightening. Like in Korea, their idol culture is extremely toxic. |
 |
| Man I've been in idol kpop fandoms before and this episode pretty accurately shows how toxic these idol fandoms can be and I am so glad I left those fandoms |

| This was kind of an obvious plot twist, though it's still somewhat shame only the girl (in this case Hiyori) gets blamed and bullied, though there will be some heat for the boys too...but even so...kinda upsetting the boys got forgiven right to way, while Hiyori got painted as the 'bad girl'. Well, things have to get even worse, before those can get better. |

| exaaactly what i was worried about. fangirls are insane no matter how you play this out, unless there's another huge scandal to cover this up nothing will work. im sure it'll be fixed somehow but in reality even if its explained that she's their manager it'll somehow makes things worse lol and tbh those two Are pretty careless with hanging around her but erm main character things ig! |
| girls can so evil this is why i dont vote for them |
| Idol culture can be very toxic. It annoys me how this is dramatize in reality as well. These girls will lose their heads if the idol dates a girl as if they expect these guys to be single "forever". Such a wild concept I can't wrap my head around. It doesn't happen to all idols but the extremely young and popular are likely to get these weirdos. The boys are high school, they can have friends. That's part of the experience. |
| Eh, now pictures of Hiyori with the guys got published everywhere and even on the Internet and she's bullied at school and bashed online, wtf. |
 |
| The reputation of Idols can be broken just because they get a scandal that sometimes it's not true. |

| I'm really glad that the two have been getting along more. The chemistry maybe makes their actual work on stage better, so that's good. But seeing Hiyori go through this is hard. ;__; She's like, "It's okay. I'll learn from this," but I can only hope this gets let go enough so she can learn from it and keep doing her thing. |
| If Chizuru or Setoguchi took the photos, that's quite the betrayal |
