Lol.

And..lights, camera, action. Better than Hollywood. I honestly did not see this little acting coming from the episode but the soundtrack used during it was kinda funny to listen to.

Oh God, Shou, you made the scenes priceless to watch. He's going to break himself if he keeps falling like that tbh

Manliness!
Ha, this episode. Nice save :3

MAXIMUM MANLINESS!!!!!

I barely survived that episode. It was just. So perfect. If I was ever tied before for Syo and Masato, it definitely isn't anymore. Or, at least, unless the Masato episode is as good as this one was.

Syo is just so manly, so perfect, and that ending. THAT ENDING. He gave her the hat, so cute! Nanami is still an idiot though, only she would fall sideways off that damned set...

OMG I am so happy for Syo. Being able to be in a movie with Ryuuya XD. Haruka did help him out. Wow that song. So good !!! I think next week's song is Otoya or maybe Ren. Can't wait

Um, actually I was commenting on the angle that she fell off. She was lunging for the bag, but somehow fell off the middle of the bridge on the side of it. Because she's just that skilled at being awkwardly clumsy.

I got so annoyed with Nanami in this episode, I'm pretty clumsy myself but honestly, only she would do that.

Syo is literally the cutest thing ever, I want his hat :c

Ryuya kind of came off a bit rude to Syo with what he said. He seemed to realize that so that’s good. Yay for Syo getting across the gap, but how clumsy can you be Haruka? Also I hope Syo has enough money to pay for all those club membership hats.

Meh it was ok. Nanami's clumsiness was no bueno. To me it seemed really unrealistic even for her. Though I did like Syo's song.

So i guess they will have an episode for each member?? I thought they would be working together more :(

Enjoyed that episode more than I thought I would at first. Never been a huge fan of Syo, but he is such a cutie.
Loved that moment between him and Haruka.

This is actually my first post on My anime list. D: PLEASED TO MEET YOU ALL.

This episode was pretty cute, though I have to admit it's a bit predictable Nanami was going to drop from that bridge, though I really liked the moments they had in the episode. I honestly wanted to see more of Natsuki and Syo's friendship in Syo's episode, but it didn't turn out to be as much as I hoped for.

Unrelated: I actually had to burst out laughing at the end when Syo said "I'm fired up!" because I have been watching Fairy tail all night prior to this, and the line has been stuck in my head.

Apart from how unrealistic and convenient Nanami's falling scene was, it turned out to be a good episode overall. I feel like the whole thing is still not very clear and lacking a defined plot (which I hope will change soon), but it's nice anyway ':3

I was expecting the set to get <FALL APART> because Syo's clothes would weigh a ton and leave Nanami hanging off the side. Nope, though. She falls off the side. With her clumsiness, I never know.

Indeed....maybe she should invest in a pair of flats as the heels seem to add to a natural clumsy behavior...then again it does end her up in the arms of a lot of men so.....

I liked the overall episode, though personally I would have liked a bit more of the senpai's and their interactions with the students in it. But I won't complain as it was still a good episode.

I'm glad they seem to have fixed Cecil's character now, and he's got more of his 'moe' back in him. I was also insanely happy he got to interact with Natsuki a lot, and got to wear his messenger outfit from the Debut Unit CD.

However it caused me immense physical pain to see Cecil so saddened early in the episode. Especially when he was talking to Camus. ;A;

It's so obvious that he feels lonely/left out because of his lack of knowledge on being an idol. Now he's trying to understand it all, and finding it difficult.

Camus is just...idk any more. LOL I want to both roll my eyes at him and laugh.

Syo made me all pumped up and sad at the same time. And the ending I was just b'aww-ing all over the place.

**Personal-note: I think Cecil is going to be a someone who participates in whatever event the given character in the specific character episode does. Much like how here he was a extra on the drama show. Cecil will probably pop up as similar things for the others in their episodes until he gets used to the fundamentals of being an idol.

They have started to do many things. UtaPri Award is needed? lol @ their interaction with the sempais while asking about the award.

lol @ the drama, he's too short (not enough distance), even if his fear is overcomed is not enough. To help out with relaxation, they even want to get extra roles!! lol~, and there's more, she gave him a chance to successfully jumped to another side.

TRUE WING?? So it's Syo's song? She's his first fan! lol~

Idiot is such a harsh word, awkwardly clumsy I'll accept. Anyways lol she was so cute, but it led the girly looking guy to accomplish his "goal".

Don't call my Nanami an idiot. /rages.

Only she would show up on top of a set like that! And only she would fall sideways off a set like that! Because she is Nanami!

I am so glad that she is safe. Buji de yokatta~ If anything had happened to Nanami, I would ragequit watching this anime. Whew, that was close. I thought I would have a heart attack when she slipped, but no, the BGM was so off, I could actually relax like a panda after eating a pile of bamboo. The music was so no right when Nanami's life was actually hanging by her little ability to grip on that set. Very poor direction imho. =_=

I think it’s more unprofessional to try and do something you aren’t capable of. That’s how people get hurt, in scenes like this. This shouldn’t be about proving yourself, it should be about doing the job that is set out before you. To me it’s an amateur move to focus on what you can do rather than what you can do for your employer. If you can’t do something, be up front about it and do your best with what you can do. Pushing yourself is fine, but not at the risk of others.

But whatever, of course it all turned out okay in the end. =P

Actually in the game the message was more along the lines of "Shou was being too tense/nervous about stuff and not 'being himself' which makes him --as someone else in the ep said 'stiff'/unnatural and not true to himself."
The situation is fleshed out a bit more over some time (in the game) but the result is more or less the same in that Nanami convinced him it's fine for him to 'be himself' and hold on to his original feelings of 'wanting to be like Hyuuga' etc..

The anime used a bad example into making the obstacle a "jump over a gap" thing (which in turn makes fun of his height) but oh well, guess they wanted that dramatic "Nanami's faaaalllling" I NEED TO SAVE HER thing.

OTOKOGI ZENKAI!!! XD

Yay loved Syo's episode!! It was so cute how scared and relieved he was when he saved Haruka ^^

But the only thing in my mind while watching this episode was: "WAT THE SONGS!!!" Need soudtrack!! That song that played when Ryuuya was being all bitchy with Syo was so lovely. I like how Natsuki was trying to help his Syo-chan ^^

And the violin ones!! SO BEAUTIFUL!! Neeed the soundtrack of this episode!! NOW!


The only thing that makes me a bit sad, is that it probably won't have anymore Syo focused episodes, since the serie will probably go with an episode of each member of Starish, then the sempais, and Cecil probably at last.

Honestly I think they should do many episodes appearing all them bit by bit, instead of making the whole character centered in a single character...

Anyway, since it's like that, I can't wait for Natsuki's episode!! Will Satsuki appear?

I enjoyed the episode and learning of their new challenge/goal to win the Uta Pri award, but then Hakura turned into a ditzy idiot again and her damsel in distress moment really killed the episode for me.

Although, I will admit felt a little better about that scene when I learnt that the character Syo played in the drama he was starring in had to learn 'if you are a man, at least protect the woman you love' (I'm pretty sure that's how the quote went). So I could see how the writers of this show thought that Syo saving Haruka would give him the courage and confidence to make the leap and finish his job. But overall it was a cliché.

Why is Syo-chan doing the jumps himself, isn't there supposed to be an assisted jump? Its a movie right? It's not a documentary.

How did Nanami not realize that she was so high up when was climbing to get there in the first place? How did she fall sideways when she was going forwards towards the bag? How How someone explain to me. Nvm I know the answer, plot.
