| Nina is really going to steal the show eventually like does in quite few of the 4koma shorts. More people need to watch this, it's quite funny. |
 |
| Waiting, waiting for it to available and subbed in any form... |
 |
| I hope this dark ages of the raw having ads is just a this week thing. Is impossible to say no, to Nina and Kaoru conviction to become idols. Onegai! Cinderella, was extremely important to kick off. |
 |
| AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA SO CUTE!!! IT WAS ONE OF THE CUTEST SHIT I'VE WATCHED IN A LONG TIME!!!!!!! π π π Momoka and Arisu were cute as always but I didn't Arisu could sing like that. I loved her singing around the middle of the episode. SHE ALSO SANG A LITTLE PART OF THE ONEGAI CINDERELLA AT THE END!! I didn't know of Risa before watching this but I quite liked her. π’π’π’ MSGK  |
 |
This ED song Arisu cut and this more Arisu cut...  ...is how I'd like to describe how excited I am. I even watched it on low quality TV Tokyo live streaming without subtitle. Hopefully I could secure a copy of the BD later, if not sold out by nihonjin first. |

| This first episodes leave me with high expectations. The director clearly knows what they're doing as the shot composition in this episode is absolutely beautiful. The use of color is fantastic. The seiyuu bring out strong performances and I can tell the producer is brimming with personality and he may be my favorite character of the show by the end, I already love him so much. The fanservice for fans of the series is such a worthwhile addition too, like the ED using the Starlight Stage costumes. The plot was understandable from the expressions alone and the dynamics between the producer and the girls is excellently presented, especially with Arisu, and I barely know Japanese outside of a handful of words that I knew they were saying. It really feels like this was made with a lot of love and I expect great things, even if the story won't be anything too ambitious. |
| i remember Nina lives in the dorm. poor kid was abandoned by her parents in her early age. |
| I love the look and feel of the show. Lots of cool shots and the quiet vibe kind of brings me back to the first episode of the 2011 Idolmaster, and the girls are all so cute. I feel so blessed to be watching a new Idolmaster anime in 2023 |
| Feeling down? You may already be a charge target. |
| Absolutely beautiful. This is going to be an amazing series. I could not stop freaking out the entire episode. Seeing characters like Arisu, Miria, and Nina again is so refreshing. |
| They didn't really expect the hype will even made #U149 reached top trending topic on JP twitter last night. |
| The production-quality is INSANE. I watched it raw because I couldn't wait. Not just the visuals the sound-design is also very good. I can only praise the visuals for now. I will rewatch it when the sub gets released. OMG the ED looks also looks amazing. I enjoyed this episode a lot despite not understanding much of it without subs. I'm very excited to watch the rest of the show! |
 |
| where is the cunny |
| Better than anything I could have expected, absolutely diabetes cute and some familiar faces come back on screen too! Really liking the Producer this time around as well, really looking forward to the next episode |
 |
| I really, really have no words for how good it was! I love Idolmaster animes and despite the bar was really high this first episode passed in flying colors! It doesn't have the level of vision of the OG Cinderella Girls anime nor 2011 Animas, but it goes for a more restrained opening about Arisu's hangups. The writing is so good, the subtext is so good, the presentation is so good... I'm completely in love. Best anime episode I've seen this year yet |
| Watched 15 Spring 2023 animes so far, this is my first 9! This is really beautiful! They focus on Arisu, and this eps 1 is really good at introducing what's the ideal she wished but not fulfilled yet. Having parents not really understanding your hardworks and achievements is painful as a child. They're treating it like she did her homeworks, like, how the hell did they even let their daughter sets off as an idol when they barely cares about it!? (that's the only mystery I had, how the hell the parents didn't care much) |
| Damn!! this anime!! so good!!!! π |
Cross  AngeHey guys check my profile for current airing season anime recommendation (guaranteed best taste) |
| this is so interesting show !! because they are a lo*i or the plot story i dunno LUL risa and arisuuu so far my favs heroine |
| Tachibana is my favorite so her being the main character means I've won |
| Some motherfuckers are always trying to ice skate uphill. |
| First time watching anything Idolmaster, and I really enjoyed this episode a lot. The girls are cute and the animation is great. |
| This is actually the first time I'm watching an Idolmaster, perhaps the first time I'm watching anything of the genre actually, it was nice, the girls are cute, I like Arisu and overall visuals are good. |
  Grant me one hour on love's most sacred shores To clasp the bosom that my soul adores, Lie heart to heart and merge my soul with yours |
| U're bunch of pedo's actually. I think this IM@ is gonna be the best. |
| UOOOOOOOOOOHHHHH πππ |
 Zandatsu (ζ¬ε₯ͺ - "cut and take") |
| It's been so long since I watched an idolmaster anime and this looks good but kids huh !!? I'm a little uncomfortable |
| i love how they used Onegai! Cinderella for the insert song. I believe it was the among the first songs available in the mobile game way back when it was first released! original game version (GRAND): and this is Arisu's solo version (unofficial): |
| You can buy lossless digital music from your favorite Japanese artists on https://ototoy.jp/. The songs are all DRM-free and you can re-download your purchased albums as you wish. Show your support to your favorite artist if you can! ps. if you are looking for Japanese albums, you have to search it in Japanese (not romaji). Just copy and paste the name. For those who want to learn Japanese through anime Resources for learning the language |
| Totally bliss so far! |
 |
| I gotta say, manlet producer is a huge turn off. Not sure why they went this route. |
| I already love Cinderella Girls, now fuse it with the cutest and funniest members and you have a gold mine πππ It’s weird that this specific anime isn’t getting much fansubbers, is this a lolicon thing, or this anime is just very unlucky??? |
 |
| UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH |
