| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- This show really likes the Twinkle Twinkle Star theme wow... Luckily, the OP song takes a different approach. I think it's alright, not too impressive though. One thing I notice about this show is the constant flashbacks of Nino. I think it's really trying to get the audience to understand her better. She and Momo has quite a past back then. It also shows when she started to wear a facemask. The character relationship between her and Yuzu was noticeable too. Pretty decent background storytelling episode imo. |

| The whole time when she was with that guy who makes music and drinks milk, she thinks about her beloved childhood friend, who is the only one who approved his singing voice (besides that another guy). Poor him. Oh, that OnoD and Takagaki-san dajare part that was talked about in the radio was that... It seems like the original vocalist is also the vocalist of the popular band. Main girl didn't go to the school just because she mistook that voice for her beloved childhood friend. Will she be learning that he really exist in next ep.? |

I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
| There was too much lalalas. It was so annoying. Got to see some backstory for Momo and Nino. They really like the Twinkle Twinkle Star song. Yuzu is jealous and hopes Nino never sees Momo. He's obsessive with her. I don't care who ends up with who. |
 |
| LA LA LA LA LA LA LA When Yuzu did that, i surprisingly liked it but whenever she does it, i want to rip my ears out lol I already feel bad for Yuzu, he got pulled into this mess and can't get out anymore. |
| I am so conflicted right now....This backstory between Alice, Momo and Yuzu made it even harder for me to want to ship her with either of them because they're both so great >.< It's truly going to hurt when Momo finally reveals himself and now we can add on the fact that our love square became a love pentagon lol....This series is going to be interesting |
| Good episode. I'm liking both Yuzu and Momo for now, assuming Momo is anything like his former self. The flashbacks with Nino singing together with both of them was nice. Rather than feel happy for the guy who'll win in the end, I'm gonna feel bad for the guy who gives up his love. :3 I also really liked the part where Yuzu sang for Nino while she was screaming. |
 |
| I got myself into another love polygon anime. WHY KAMI-SAMA? WHY?! Love polygons are so frustrating damn it. Do they release love polygon anime every spring? Like ffs Kiznaiver was released last spring and I can clearly remember the annoying love polygon. Anyway, this show is still interesting enough that I'll just have to bear with the love polygon. |
I think that strangers are just friends you haven't met.  |
| Hmmmmmmmmm...I was really annoyed by all the Twinkle Twinkle Little Star and then the lalalalalas...and then she started screaming...D: Don't lalalala me anymore pleaseeee D: I like Yuzu a lot. When he wished that Nino never meets Momo again was so badass lol |
 |
| annoying voice + kids drama + friendzone god this second episode was hard to watch |
| Man I was kinda looking forward to this series. I love me some shoujos but.. dang these first 2 episodes were hard to get through. I hope this gets better, because right now I really hate Alice lol The amount of Momo, LALALA, and twinkle star within the past 2 episodes got really annoying real quick. |
| well I am bored with the show...considering to drop it....will their be only drama or is their something darker in the show |
 |
| I feel so bad for Yuzu He needs love and protection Someone save my son |
| Jesus christ the LALA LALA LA LA LALALA and Twinkle twinkle little star over and over again was annoying af. The baldy lil shit was right too, she's annoying. He's the real MVP this episode. with the first and second episode so far it's a 3/10. One last chance to give me some kind of hope. |
 |
| I think they could have slowly filtered in the back story over the course of a few episodes, because giving it all at once like that was a bit too much. I thought we were done with the LALA's after last episode. ugh! No wonder Momo didn't reveal himself last week, she had that bad habit of singing at the top of her lungs when he was speaking to her. ;) I'm going to try and ride it out, I do like Yuzu and hopefully once Momo shows up things will fall into place. |
| This episode was hard to watch, honestly the girl is annyoing as fuck, and that yuzu lol friendzoned plus that one other dude with yellow hair... frienzone anime incoming with mello-drama... |
| That back flash of Nino's life took awhile, pretty sad both the boys left her. After Momo left to me she seemed like she had mental issues (kinda annoying). It seems Yuzu cares about Nino a lot, i hope he ends up with her if anything. Momo seems like a jerk, he should seriously tell Nino he is back smh all the troubles that girl been through. The Lalalala and Twinke twinke is repetitive, glad Yuzu will be making new music hopefully will end the lalalalala. |

As it is now I don't know which ship to board. But i'm worried Momo's character will get butchered. Guaranteed he's not gonna start of the nice kid who looked after her. He's gonna enter and probably at first be a jerk or something who secretly cares--but those characters annoy me. Like don't be a jerk. Just a foreboding thought. :( |
| The episode was really cute! I can see all the drama ahead. Yuzu best boy tho. |
 Ｓｗｅｅｔ♥I guess, as long as I have life, all I can do is fight with all my might. |
| Too bad the baldy didn't get his ass kicked. |
 "Your sight, my delight. Will you marry me?" |
| I loved the part where Yuzu tried to calm Nino by singing, such a sweet scene I'm so shipping them. TBH too much lalalala and twinkle twinkle started to tick me off halfway but yea nice voice but still quite annoying. I'm guessing that Yuzu was sick or still sick that's why he stopped school (I mean he's at a hospital room at the ending theme) so yea that might be it |
| this is the angstiest shit ive ever seen. good music alone doesnt make a good show. dropped hard |
| Objectivity doesn't exist. Subjectivity is an excuse. Beautiful world of online discourse. |
| They were able to cram in a lot of backstory. Just the character interactions and motivations weren't good. |
 |
| Flashback was really nice, made me connect to characters better and see what kind of person Momo is, i like how he responded to Baldy who laughed at them for holding hands with a hand, Momo said that he is just jealous that no girl wants to hold hands with him, he said it in such a cool way too. Cause if you remember www.working Yuuta and Shiho were in the same situation and he actually didn't want to see her because of his peers laughing at him for holding hands with a girl. So yeah i can already feel T_T it might be a really emotional ride depending on which direction anime will turn, i jsut hope it won't be as bad as Fuuka >_< Btw what's up with Yuzu suddenly calling her Alice, her name doesn't even sound like it >_< He could call her anything for all it matters. |
xExrael said: way too much Twinkle Twinkle Little Star and LALALAs. it's annoying af i'm glad we got those flashbacks so early, makes everything easy to understand p.s. am i the only one who thinks that Hayami Saori was a bad decision for this character? don't get me wrong, i love her voice when she speaks or when she sings ballads, but Nino needs a more powerful voice... DUDE. exactly my thoughts... She doesn't suit for Nino(Alice) i fell like the character is great, but it's her voice (Hayama Saori) that makes her annoying |
| I like music, drama and Hayami Saori but this really was hard to watch. Saori sure is capable of doing Nino but I don't think her voice is suitable. Overdramatic reactions and twinkle/lalala every two minutes wasn't helping either. Still hoping it'll get better though. |

| Does anyone else find themselves yelling at their screen telling these characters to shit the fuck up! Christ. Stop saying the characters name every other flipping sentence. I mean holy crap. What's his name again...Momo is it. We get it. It's adding nothing to the scene by identifying the character insistently. Twinkle little star is ruined forever. I skipped literal minutes and la la la was still being chanted. I may not be able to stick with this one. Its annoying as shit to just listen to let alone pay attention to. |

| All of the La La La's were mind numbing. Ugh. I love Saori's speaking voice, but her singing leaves much to be desired. It doesn't help when everyone is like "OMG Arisugawa is sooo good at singing" when in reality it's like bruh, baldy kid is right: she sucks. A balanced love triangle with childhood drama... it's pretty reminiscent of Chihayafuru, except instead of it being about Arata, Arata, Arata it's about Momo, Momo, Momo. However, I enjoyed Chihayafuru immensely and its childhood arc. Here, I really wanted to just fast forward through all of it. It's probably all of the singing + the fact that Arisugawa doesn't seem to be a very strong MC. For an anime about singing and music, having bad music is a pretty bad sign of what's to come... Still gonna keep watching this though. I'm a sucker for shoujo, and I'm pretty sure this is the only shoujo show of this season. |
| La la la la la la la la 🎵🎵 La la la la la la la la la 🎶 La la la la la la la la 🎵🎵 La la la la la!!!!!! 🎶 🎶 The only lyrics I've heard of Nino singing in this episode xD |
 |
| Guess it wasn't just me that felt the singing was both awkward and annoying... |
 |
hattada said: JPthugnificent said: Guess it wasn't just me that felt the singing was both awkward and annoying... Song has no lyrics what should they do to convey the melody without instruments? It wasn't just the 'lalala' but also the voice, the way her face is animated when she sings, and even the timing of the singing can be super awkward. |
|
| La Li Lu Le Lo so a backstory episode |
 |
| lol the LALALALA parts are my favourite tbh, no idea what you all are talking about =D |
favorite "new girls" from summer <3 ... click sig for older seasons and more possible picks (rip all the other choices) |
| I almost confused/mixed-up myself to young Momo and young Yuzu...lolz but at the end part it became clear... 4/5. |
