Lol, this show has a lot of funky beats. I suppose it matches with the whole dance theme. The MC is pretty energetic from what's shown.

This was an underwhelming episode unless you're into it for the music I suppose. That ED song song is catchy though if you ask me.

If not anything, I'd watch it for soundtracks only. Those were some nice dancing moves too!

Haneru and Kanon duo's dancing would be awesome! Looking forward to their teamwork.

Surprisingly enjoyable. I'd never think it would entertain me this much since I did something stupid and judged it by looks and almost didn't give it a chance... I guess it looked "typical shounen" style to me...

That type of music is not something I like or listen to, but hearing it in anime along with cool dance moves, made it pretty enjoyable. Characters seem very likeable and interesting as well. I will look forward to seeing more of this.

I'm usually kind of a sucker for kids shows but this one isn't doing it for me. I like the character designs though, but I'm not a fan of the music and the CG dance moves.

Or I just don't like dancing, who knows :/

Ah, only picked it up because it mentioned dancing. And plenty of it first episode!

I'll like this series more, the more dancing there is. It's fun and puts me on a good groove. XD

I look forward to the B-boy!

This was better than expected. The music sounds fine. The moves got me pumped and all.
I wasn't so sure about the animation but it's easy to adapt to. Looking forward to the next episodes.

Watched this on a whim only because it was picked up for simulcast. I guess most of these types of shows go unsubbed so that was surprising.

I'm amused and it makes for an easy watch too.
Also I felt like the chara designs are very Katanagatari-ish.

It was pretty fun, just something to watch and have fun with. At first the CG caught me off guard, it was like I was playing/watching videos of that one game, "Audition". After a while I got used to it, though. It almost made up for the fact that they were re-using scenes. Still fun nonetheless.

This feel like a more manly version of Aikatsu. A bit weak right now, but I can really become addict to it, I guess.

This will go so well with my weekly dose of Idol Activity <3

it's a kids show, which is good.
also characters seem to be funny.
character design is something new and I like them.

but there is issue of those sounds and moves they are doing... I'm not sure if I could stand those.
will give one or two episodes to check out.

I still haven't seen the english sub yet so I can't say anything for sure but I did scan thru a bit its dance/music scenes might makes u wanna watch it but for a new 2014 anime character looks are not so cute. For example the pink hair girl and the main guy hair mostly annoying becuz how he has his big front hair so big stuck up like a bunny ribbon.If the characters look way better I might be more interested in it. Becuz normally if the main characters have a bit of looks doesn't need to be good looking but just need to look good in the eye will normally catch my eye to wanna watch the anime.The one reason why i check it out in the first place is becuz i heard it was a music anime but the characters hairstyle are so ugly.

It's a bit childish but I was prepared.

I like the OST, I don't like the design very much, the two main characters seems interesting, especially Rhythm.

The dancing scenes in CGI were acceptable, I hope there'll be hand-drawn scene in the future.

I don't know where the show will go, at first it looks like one of those commercial anime created to sell goodies (like Yu-Gi-Oh!, Duel Masters, Beyblade, or even Gundam), but I don't know, if the characters are done well this can be watchable.

EDIT : oh and I also felt the Jet Set Radio vibe, lol

Rather childish, but somehow very entertaining though i wish they would just get rid of the 3d mmd parts and animated it in 2d.

Why would it have to look cute anyways?
I'm actually happy this has a different style. Watching shows with cute/moe designs is getting tiresome...

Hmmm, the dancing is a bit corny to me but it still made me want to dance too. Hateru's aura w/"dance" in the background is cool, I feel like he's powering up to grove lol. This seems to be aimed at a younger demographic but I'm wit it.

6/10 for this episode.
Bad character design.
Isayama Hajime should be awarded The Manga with The Highest Inconsistencies of Characters' Appearances.
He keeps performing multiple plastic surgeries on those Shingeki No Kyojin characters in a SINGLE chapter.
Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga.
Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month.
Patiently awaiting SNK TV/movie/OVA anime-sequel.
The 2015 SNK live-action movie would probably suck.

Unique, to say the very least. I really like the stylistic art style. It's reminiscent of the vibrant art style of shows like Yu-Gi-Oh. The music was pretty darn good as well. It just was just plain fun to watch.

I think I'm hooked.

Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me
