A karaoke session like this really helped bring the group together. They had fun too and we got to see some singing skills out of the cast.

Kana once again gets assigned on a new task, and it follows to see how well she can do in her role to help a company. Pretty standard stuff, nothing really crazy. Kana is living out her life to her fullest.

I haven't seen a karaoke segment for a long time in anime. Definitely a fun and refreshing moment. :) Kana has a beautiful voice.

I wonder if there's going to be a big boss fight or something like that later.

I think during one part of this episode something was wrong with my hearing, they said this strange line with chocolate and pizza could just be me tho.
The Karaoke part was funny but it's nice to see that they spend time together in a more relaxed environment.
Kana being send to another company to learn is also nice but it seems the mahou shoujo business is a strange one with unique individuals, Aoi Lily (Blue Lily) seems like a nice but strange person.
I wonder what Kana will be able to learn from her.

Those are some seriously good songs, I'm wondering if they're already existing songs or they're newly created for just this episode.

It just comes to me that the magical girl business in this anime might be a metaphor for idol business, with Magilumiere being an underground idol agency while AST is a well-establish idol company.

Yeah, we need a break every here and there, and this was a pretty sweet break with the karaoke and such.

For a J.C. Staff show, the character acting was really good when Kana was singing btw.

In the opening sequence Kana and Hitomi are seen with two other magical girls. Is Aoi one of the two that joins up with them?

This falling below a 7 on MAL is absolutely criminal like wtf is the bias against mahou shoujo.

Whatever, for those of us with taste this was another good episode. After saving the day last week a karaoke party is very well deserved. I love how Kana’s performance is like proper idol even down to having choreography. Kana idol spin off show WHEN

And S/O to Kaede for taking notes of all the songs the president likes to sing lmao. Unsung hero of karaoke night but I hope he gets to join in sometime, shouldn’t have to work at parties too..

This episode did make me think how we know surprisingly little about the president. Hopefully this arc with Kana collating with Miyakado will help shed some light on that. It’s pretty cool that there’s a company dedicated to makeup for mahou shoujo employees lol. Lily is also really pretty!

Funny the title being "Joint Project", when it was the tale end of the episode.
Note: I don’t lazily watch 3-5 episodes, biasedly compare to other anime, or unfairly judge by surface level similarities. With every anime I start, I watch the entire series, both Japanese Sub & English Dub, then judge each anime based on what they present, to give an honest and fair rating.

Idk how to feel about this show.
It has nothing new, and I dislike all the characters except for Kana, I think she is a good character trapped in a bad show. Her singing was the peak of this episode.
If it weren't for her and because I like magical girls I would be dropping this, but maybe I will if this continues to be so boring, there is no real threat, nothing to expect or strive for, no major evil behind anything, it's just boring.
Sorry if my english is bad (っ˘▽˘)っ~~~
Btw, cry about it.

Kana is still trying to get used to the funny things that happen in the company.
I enjoyed the karaoke part, the singing was good, plenty of entertaining bits as well.
Nice to see Kouji still had old acquaintances that want to work with him.
I think Koga might be the guy running AST, he mentioned Kouji a couple of time already.
Lily seems to be a pretty decent person, looking forward to seeing how she and Kana get along.

@Aversa As much of a devil's damnable idea as it might seem, it's not as uncommon as might be hoped... Pizza place I used to go to had an actual menu item, apparently because it was popular enough: chocolate and sauerkraut. Really made me lose faith in people's sanity.

I thought the karaoke segment was gonna be a waste of time, but they ended up doing a lot with that whole section with bringing the group closer together and showing off a bit more of their personality. Really well done, imo. Just a shame the second half was a little wasted simply setting up the next episode with Kana working at a different company temporarily.

@Tarrian That does indeed sounds like something made in hell.
Taste is subjective even if we don't agree with it, each their own.

Kana was doing good with that karaoke. Hitomi must have a bottomless stomach.

No fight for today but had a karaoke episode as you would expect in an office setting.

This collaboration might be interesting. I wonder what Sakuragi might learn.

Question is... how the hell is Prez wearing that giant outfit underneath a suit and there's no bulging from the outfit... (especially the super size skirt... HOW... does that even fit into pants? and not make it all puffy?)

Also... how many Honey Toast has that girl ate? holy...

.

BTW,

But did they just say that Hitomi doesn't use BodyWash/ Shampoos when taking a bath? She said "just a towel"... LOL

Meaning... she never actually fully clean her hair. So... what will Hitomi actually look like if she washed fully... hmm...

The karaoke time was cute and fun. I do kinda like the vibe where the point is kinda more Kana finding this workplace where she fits in with these unique coworkers who have their own amazing strengths whether those strengths might be big or small. My only gripe is that it might have been better to focus more on the individual relations of these employees istead of mostly only as a group. Like it's fine, but if we're making these characters this unique then I feel like it's wasted potential to pretty much only see how they work as a unit. I love that they all seem to get along, but I think it's always a little more interesting when each character has differing levels of relations instead of just the same level of "like". For example, seeing two coworkers become the unlikely besties is fun. Or even if there are two workers wo don't get along, but slowly start to understand each other. It's not bad, it's just that I see they're taking the time to show us how the company's culture is, but it would have been really easy to add the individual relations in at the very same time.

Overall, still a fun anime.

With work complete, it's time to party with a sudden karaoke feast, and both Shigemoto and Midorikawa are well-prepared in spontaneous activities like this to welcome Kana proper, most particularly the President donning a different anime-inspired Mahou Shoujo outfit. The others also have fun in their own way, like Nikoyama who's not good with people; Koshigaya not needing a mic to sing her heart out while chomping on honey toast, and Kana being the typical idol otaku who performs admirably with embarrassment. But of all the people there, Midorikawa is like his work self being the service admin who knows everyone best but yet is OK being in the background. Of course, the expose to the public is every bit as professional as they can be, though their heart ambitions beat all the same.

One thing's for sure; Shigemoto is the mysterious President whom they don't know much about, yet they can live with him as with any other caring boss.

The next day is the typical work day, though Shigemoto getting a call from a fellow friend in the Magical Girl business talking about his relationship with AST Corp's Koga, it's the mystery in question. But for now, Kana being involved in the joint project with major cosmetics company Miyakodo (and its CEO of Miyado Asou) to partner with their in-house Mahou Shoujo department for observatory training is a good thing...

...and to be expected, their expertise in fashion and cosmetics take precedence over learning to become a better Magical Girl.
