| Hhmmm... it is Yuri? Lol |
| I thought this would be pretty meh based on the premise but it's fun enough so far. I was very surprised the performance part was not CGI so it seems they got good budget to pull it off. Eripiyo has quite the character. |
| eripiyo face looks like chihaya tbh !!! |
| Tbh, hoping it starts to go a little differently from here. Like Eripiyo showing more genuine appreciation rather than the blind obsession. Haven't read the manga so I don't know what I'm getting into, but so far it's looking like a fascinating new take on the idol genre and I'm ready for it. The jokes and jabs at idol otaku were great too, but considering I felt personally attacked and audibly said "ouch" I'm wondering if I should reevaluate my life choices, lol. |
| lovelive is relevant and the rest is garbage it's joke |
| That was so freaking adorable!!! |
| Wow, this surprised me so much. Nice directing, flashes of possible development, unorthodox chara designs for an idol show, unusual underground setting, not a bad comedy and overall great amount of potential depending on where the anime decides to go. For the first time in like 3 seasons, I can say I'm thrilled to follow an anime throughout its run. |
Higurashi Gou is the worst anime in existence. |
| not really my kind of idol anime. Dropped. |
| Me, throughout the episode: can you mayhaps stop with the call outs to my mobage habits i don't need this w Joking aside, a good episode. Laughed at some parts, a little over dramatic, but it was good. Wished there were more female fans and not just male fans 'cause ya know, female fans for female idols exist. Not saying this needs to be a yuuri, just idk more female fans would be nice lol. |
| Baudrillard weeps. It was really really fun, above expectations. Actually somewhat realistic and grounded, decent comedy and an interesting dynamic between Maina and Eripiyo(so unique that I'm halfway sure it would be the only example of the like in anime). If big 2D-idol franchises are like SAO this is closer to Netojuu and that in a medium which I am more familiar and in love with. |
| Those idolfans are really nutjobs manchildren and Eripiyo looks too pretty for such moronic character. She could easily be one of idols instead working in a food factory and wasting all money for multiple copies of useless idolgoods just to get stupid handshake. |
 |
| not what i was expecting but so far it was hilarious :v Maina sure was disappointed that Eripiyo didnt take the full picture huh? well she was "running away" from her for ages, so the fact she is still loyal is more than good enough haha but damn waiting in the sun for all those hours sure sucks , ofc it would be the hottest day of the year LOL |
favorite "new girls" from fall <3 (lol i only watched these) ... click sig for older seasons  |
| I don’t know why people expect an idol anime when the synopsis clearly says that it’s an anime mainly about idol fans. The fans are the main focus of the anime, not the idols. I’ve been looking forward to it and I loved the first episode. Everything is so spot on, and Eripiyo is a great character. |
 |
| Surprisingly decent. I was told this would be shoujo ai But it even has a decent story and funny comedy. I’m sold. Hopefully Maina will get her feelings across. |
| Wow this was surprisingly a great start. Eirpiyo is so obsessed with Maina, she'd die if she learnt that Maina also likes her. Looking forward to the upcoming episodes. |
 |
| first scene, Eripiyo from behind, i thought, Oota-kun?! |
| not bad, it's pretty interesting |
| Damn this is really funny, shouldn't have put it off all this time xD I remembered the short the author did in the Yuri anthology Eclair and I didn't remember that one being a comedy, but this tone is working really well for me. And the ending was so sweet... I really hope Maina likes Eripiyo back >_< SoL is better with some relationship progression towards the end. |
 |
| unique idol anime from the fans perspective |
| OK so i came here expecting absolutely nothing and yet now I want to see EP2 asap. + Watching this the night before going to a Hatsune Miku concert (Expo 2020 in Paris) hyper me even more! |

ysphyr said: I know it's supposed to be funny and all... but I couldn't help but cringe throughout the entire episode. Poor girls, having to face these creeps. And moreover - being touched by them, made me want to wash my hands in acid. Oh my goodness, yes. This...ugh I keep thinking if I grew up in Japan, I'd go buy up tickets to handshake events to save these poor girls because I have this big sister instinct that makes me willing to take drastic measures to protect anyone smaller and/or cuter than me. I can and will dropkick a creepy idol wota, and carry travel sized hand sanitizer bottles to give to all the idols and their staff. At least Eripiyo had the decency to think about her BO after waiting in line and in the hot sun all day. I feel pretty bad because now that I think of it, idols probably deal with that daily. I'm in an idol cosplay dance group, and after our long rehearsals I can barely stand being around my girls until after everyone showers. Creepy middle-aged dudes are out of the question. crescentrises said: Me, throughout the episode: can you mayhaps stop with the call outs to my mobage habits i don't need this On god, Eripiyo's screeching was a callout. My friend watched the episode and texted me "that's how you look when you're talking about honoka" and I just about died. It's true ;;; |
| lovelive is relevant and the rest is garbage it's joke |
| At first im hesitating to finish the whole ep but as im watching it, i started to like it.I thought Eripiyo will be one of the group but ended up a diehard fanatic lol. Also, Eripiyo was so hilarious af xD She's the main reason why i stayed for this ep lmao i love her personality Overall..... 1st ep was unexpectedly good. The performance of the idols were great also no fucking CGI and the songs was good. So in their group, my fav so far are Sorane and Maki They all cute though then Eripiyo is pretty af Not a bad start |
| B O C C H I S W E E P |
| I like it, it's probably one of my top animes for this season. I don't really like idol animes but this is funny af (and cute). |
| Man i didn't know this was already out the cover art doesn't leave much of a impression on this show lol it's godlike interesting take having the perspective of an obsessed fan for a idol show and they seem to be local idols so it's neat to see them be so personal with their fans,speaking of fans it shows how crazy Stans can be you messed up when the big sweaty otaku is telling you that you're too intense. show was pretty damn funny though i do agree portraying every fan as some kind of crazy obsessed fan could be seen as a problem hopefully they add someone that is just ya know normal and not stalker-ish |

emraanash said: anime is about obsessed fan, not gonna continue though its seems fun... is it Yuri?? I haven't seen anything confirming it is Yuri or Shoujo-ai.... But, I stopped the episode after the opening. It's going to be dubbed, I'll try it then. But I didnt see much of anything in what I DID see, to explain why she became obsessed. I stopped it because it seemed like Yuri, and like that was the only reason she became infatuated. I rarely like Yuri or Yaoi things (rarely, not never, I liked Bloom into you, kurokos basketball, gravitation and banana fish).... But it gave me Yuri vibes, as well. I didn't really see much reason (she didnt appear to do much to stand out from the other girls, from what I saw) for her to become so obsessed with that girl if its NOT yuri. |
 |
| Of all idol anime I have watched (not too much) its good that this one a main character is a fan not an idol. Quite an obsesed fan Wotaku (yes, wotaku or wota. Like this because otaku is for anime). |
| Eripyo is totally relatable. This anime is one of my favorites in yeeeeears |
 |
| Expected just another idol anime, but didn't expect the protagonist. Looks fun and interesting, gonna keep watching! Why are many shows this season pretty good on average? I dropped like half what I wanted to watch last season by the first episode, but I haven't been able to drop anything this season. fukuchi said: Bruh, this relates me on every single level. As an idol otaku, I always want to meet and communicate with my oshi. And yes, idol actually remembers the fan's name. The part of the two-shot photo event also exactly the same as IRL. Though, I never want to make heart shape because I don't want my oshi to think I actually have fallen in love with them.  At least, in my country, idol otaku is not as "filthy" as them. Members of the group often remind the fans to not suffer just for an idol. Back then, a lot of wota fasting for a week just for more money. Gotta ask, who's she? Not too familiar with JKT48 but I don't even know how to start finding her name because there's been so many generations. |

| This was ridiculous... and that's what made it great. I've only dipped my toes in idol otaku culture (Translation: I'm a passionate idol fan, but only for one group. Haven't watched a lot of idol anime despite wanting too). Even so, I had to laugh at all the jabs made at us. I didn't expect to relate to this so much. The colours for the animation, it was beautiful. They thankfully didn't use CGI for the performance. Eripiyo and Maina are both too cute in their own way. The mangaka does yuri!! Which means I am very happy to ship these two. I'll keep watching. |
   |
| Well, that was certainly an entertaining watch! I've never been idols or know much about this side of the industry so I'm kind of watching this out of mere curiosity but I'm glad to say this show seems to have more to this! Characters seem fairly likable so far, Animation quality is pretty good and the Comedy a standout, definitely going to keep up with this as such. Interesting how the idol is actually very thankful to Eripyo and not disgusted xD. Go for it, young lady! |

| Oh, thank God Maina is just shy and not arrogant or conceited. Entertaining start though I still don't know if I should consider Eripiyo's infatuation/crush on Maina as something wholesome or highly unhealthy. In deep thought, it's actually kinda sad and disturbing to see someone idolizing another person with such intensity. |
| I hate idol culture. |
| :3 |
| Idol culture is creepy. IRL it's even worse than this. Well, it was a good first episode. Eripyo is a obsessed with Maina. To be honest, they are both pretty cute. I liked the song of ChamJam. It was nice and catchy. |

| Interesting and cute start. I like Eripyo a lot. I can't be the only one who thought she is gonna be an idol and the other girl is gonna be her fan. I think because of the poor description on MAL not many people watch this. The anime about a group of simps can't be bad. And i feel some yuri vibes which cool. |

| wow ₍⑅ᐢ..ᐢ₎ the animation style is really cute, especially at the start with all the cherry blossom trees ( ˘͈ ᵕ ˘͈♡) i love it ♡ eripiyo is really devoted to maina ♡ she's definitely working hard to support her idol but i wonder why maina acts so reserved towards her ૮ ˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶ ა i hope they can figure it out~ eripiyo is supporting maina so intensely~~ ♡ but i wonder why maina has such an offputting outfit theme , salmon? compared to the rest of the members, it's kind of bad~ (づ ᴗ _ᴗ)づ♡ at least eripiyo will support her, but i hope she can some more fans as well ✧˖°. eripiyo's photo ticket with maina was cute as well, i hope they take a picture closer together next time~ ꒰ᐢ. ̫ .ᐢ꒱ |
