| Ok, so the third girl is the most important fan of Kano, I thought it would mean that this fan would be too dependent on her idol (she literally copied her style) and the moral would be to "stand on your own two feet" or something xD overall the episode seemed to be more boring and I didn't really like the new character but it's still good. |
| Idol obsession, I don't get, but that in itself kind of helped the new girl with a very long and weird name.. abbreviated as Kim, in a way where she'd no longer obsess over the fact that her favourite idol is no longer an idol. In the midst of all, I hope those creep smiles should just be a one-off thing sort of lol. |

| @Softhenic03 In the audio drama for second episode, they teased, at least humorously, that there would be more "funny reactions" in the future. |

| So are they healing their inner child? Mercaru, that's hilarious. Really nice progression. I feel like this is a mature version of bocchi, or bocchi in an alternative universe. |
 This never updates so that's cool |

| @cooldogmom Sorry, could you explain what you think these two shows have in common besides the fact that they are both all-female shows about music? The girls in Jellyfish don't have neuroses and aren't trying to form a rock band. More like an internet Jpop project. |

| Already a huge fan of Mei, who ironically is the biggest simp of the group. Like seriously, she was initially introduced by stacking a hundred thousand yen in the tip box to support her oshi. Mei's backstory was touching to see the reasons for why she came to love Kano, and you can tell how much it meant to her that Kano remembered their fan meet back when Kano was still Nonoka. |
| KanoeRana's OP is great, no question about it. Mahiru and Kano are stilll early on the stretch to proclaiming their JELEE name far and wide, and on the talks of raising 100k yen for an upstart, Kano's idol fan of Mei Kim Anouk Takanashi coming to support her as a hardcore fan, she's quite the otaku fan of Nonoka Tachibana, which that persona no longer exists. The thing is, both Kano and Mei have the saeme bags, and she took Kano's by mistake, which both of them heard her music composition through her recording device, which is a surprise. But as JELEE, Mei just can't accept that Kano is singing her music composition by her own freedom. As it turns out, both Kano and Mei's relationship are more than just a fan and an idol, and Nonoka may not have had a huge success with her idol work, but she won her heart, and became her persona for a change of heart. But just as when she changed hers, Kano also changed, and all expectations of the past Mei become all about Nonoka Tachibana, which from her scandal against her idol group, has finally come full circle. All of their good and bad has earned another member in the process, for good. Settling in for this ride, it takes time to cook. |

| @cooldogmom I’ve already forgotten about your comment, it’s not that serious. |

| We have not gotten Kano's full backstory yet, but Mei's definitely hits really hard. Definitely empathize with her struggling to fit in with others in her class, as well as not having any motivations or people she felt she could open up to before meeting Kano (as Nonoka). Among the 4 girls, I definitely like Mei the most so far, but will need to see with Kano and Kiwi coming up. |
| Mei brings some fun to the mix with her comedic personality, which helps offset her past bullying. I chuckled at her antics, especially her fangirling. While we learn about Mei's loneliness and how Kano helped her, there's still a lingering stalker vibe from her that's hard to ignore. At the end of the episode, instead of just taking a picture of Mahiru and Kano like she usually does as a fan of Nonoka, Mei includes herself in the picture. Alluding to the fact that she sees herself as part of their group and considers them friends. |

| New girl yabai but she cute too and amusing. Got their joint backstory which was nice too. |
 |
| ep2 of another one of the most interesting anime this season the fangirl Kimura came ins trong, giving them money but also trying her best to make Kano back into the idol she was before was interesting to see how they met, and how Kano changed Kim's life, to the point that Kim even started to use the same hair as Kano, how cute lol after swapping bags (we all saw that coming when she grabbed both bags), they met again and Kano remembered her fan (nice memory), making sure to complete her previous promise of watching a piano performance, while also giving Kim a bit of extra motivation nice ending to the episode, with Kim hugging Kano and finally being friends how lucky is she that her favorite idol is now her friend? not many fans can say the same lol tho, her being such a stalker is a little crazy, but since she didn't do anything bad, we can't complain too much so far i really like this anime, i hope ep3 will also be fun oh, i almost forgot to mention, but the ending song is crazy fun with seeing the 4 girls in different squares doing random stuff and then combining at the end |

favorite "new girls" from summer <3 ... click sig for older seasons and more possible picks (rip all the other choices) |
| The emotions are a bit all over the place but maybe that's just the way teenage girls in creative are |
| slow and boring at the start, but it got slightly better at da end. good to see them get along. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| Mei has a good backstory but the way she views Kano and calling her Nono-tan despite that being in Kano's past is still a bit weird. They are slowly assembling the exodia pieces with Jelee now they have an artist, singer, and composer. |
| Looks like this is more of a cutesy show than an emotional one. The pacing took a hit in this episode, but I'm loving Kano's character so far, her and Mahiru have a great dynamic going ^^ Honestly not a big fan of Kim, she's a little too unreasonable. Hopefully the story focuses more on the other characters and restrains from the excessive slapstick comedy and melodrama. Given its popularity I was expecting the writing to be more profound and deep than your average anime, but it's still watchable |
| Cool beauty, world class genius, unbeatable charm! I'm unstoppable! |
| Humor and emotion both fell a bit flat in this episode, but the overall picture still goes strong. Main cause for the dissonance is the new character. Both her behavior and her voice acting are off. Both writing and voice acting are to blame for the slight tone deafness. Emotions and humor don't hit the notes. Let's hope it improves in the next episode, otherwise this will continue to drag down the story overall. |
| Cool new character. Mei is now sporting the old look of Kano. Their backstory is great. |
| Looks like both Kano and the new babe Kim followed that Japanese trend of changing their hair to go with a change in character, and ngl I think both are slightly worse than their original looks lol, it almost always is, but both are so different from how they currently look so it’s kinda hard to compare. Character designs aside, this was a cute episode introducing Kim and giving us her backstory, it was a touching one, I thought I wouldn’t like Kim that much at the start of the episode but by the end of her backstory she already grew on me lol, the piano playing is very cool as well, love me some keys. And Kano following up on her promise from before was a great way to cap off Kim’s joining of the group, it’s only gonna get more wild as more cuties join. Also the OP and ED are both great, a bit surprised that neither of them are by the anime band JELEE but they’re great for sure, I love the Skype call visuals in the ED especially lol, very cute. |
| The makeover ruined piano hapa therefore Kano was a bad influence on her at least in that regard. |
| New character Kim isn't bad at all, I felt bad for her during the backstory moments, now she joined them that's good! |
 |
| Oh Godness the stalker lady is just a sweet cinammon bun. |
| I like to post in manga forum when I feel it is worth it, so people think. "Shit, is her again" or something. People asked me where I read certain thing but the rules say no telling where did you read so maybe I am too boring for not saying? Or salty because you didn't check my profile that says don't ask because I hate people to ghost me after that. I love learning languages so maybe I did not read the manga in English. |
