| As lazy as Niyodo can be, Asahi will always be his spirit vessel of infusion that alters to her overzealousness, that trickles down to his 3 hardcore fans. Asahi trying so hard to get Niyodo out of his bed, yet the man himself is reluctant enough to let her commence her idol activites within him. I can wholly tell that Asahi is the only one having fun that continues to creep out Niyodo, and the latter's the one suffering, more than his superb photographic memory of endless repetitions that enables him to memorize Asahi's dance. Seriously though, get a room you two. Asahi being Niyodo's personal daily alarm clock for practice after practice, but when it comes to the actual performance, they find that Asahi can't take over his body, and Niyodo has to perform on his own...that's a deliberate effort to help the latter out of his rut. But thanks to his great memory, he's able to perform the dance to the T. Asahi's pep talk to Niyodo and trusting that he'll come out fine as an idol, but rather it being the opposite for Asahi to live out her dream thanks to Niyodo, it's a win-win solution. I think I'm liking more of Niyodo's 3 hardcore fans every episode post-credits lols. |

| I liked this episode a lot! I appreciate that they're taking baby steps on Yuuya's character growth. It won't be as fun anymore if he just starts caring all of a sudden. But at least now, there are seeds of a sense of appreciation planted in his character and, both he and Asahi now has character motivations that will keep things interesting for the remaining episodes. phantomfandom said: Yoshino is now developing an inferiority complex. Oh, and this too, yes! Good catch there. |

| Great episode! Niyodo got a surprise waking up to Asahi's energeticness xD. She wants him to practice idol activities which he doesn't lol. One of the Niyodo fan club members got to see him handing out flyers and talk to him! The phenomenon continues! Asahi finds using a male body very different to her own xD. Seems Yoshino is even beginning to feel inferior to Niyodo now?! Seems Niyodo has a great memory! That's due to endleas repetition in school lol. Asahi wabts to take advantage of his good memory and force him to do even better dancing! She was waiting for him to wake up scarily!!! Asahi can't possess his body before yhe play anymore! Niyodo realised how many fans he has now! But he feels bad for dissapointing them do tries hard! The performance was great! Asahi refused to take over his body on purpose! She wants him to dance by himself and see what kind of idol he can become. And...WAIT SHE IS DISAPPEARING?!?!?!?! Niyodo tells her they should become the best idols ever together! Looking forward to the next episode! |
| AISHITERU...REM! |
| It was interesting to learn some of the rules of the possession here, so Niyodo is the one that gets tired and not Asahi lol, and cool to learn about Niyodo and how he can memorize stuff fast, I wish I could do that lol. And I really loved when he had to perform instead of Asahi, his mentality of giving the people what they paid for is an interesting mentality to see from an idol’s standpoint but it also fits a lot for Niyodo lol, and he knocked it out of the park, the song was good too. And wow, Asahi was really about to ascend there, but Niyodo giving her a reason to stay was sweet, even if it was because she could share the workload with him lol, but I got a feeling he’ll eventually come around on that, for now I’m really enjoying the way he thinks about stuff lol. And interesting that we got a new ED and it sounded like one of Asahi’s songs with some nice visuals of her, very nice. I’m wondering if the ED will change every week or go back and forth. And sad this is just 10 episodes, that means this’ll be my first seasonal to end, but I’m really gonna enjoy all 10! |
| the moment Niyodo realized Asahi was passing on was so funny, he tried his best to make her stay on earth by making a new goal of becoming a top idol, that will be a fun journey to watch especially with his personality. I wonder if people are going to start thinking he has a split personality or something if one moment he is all peppy idol like and then the next he's back to his lazy self, although I guess he can pull off being an idol if he really tries like he did in this episode. A little sad to see Yoshino doubting his efforts because of Niyodo's dramatic change, the level difference between is big so the change is going to be more noticeable than someone who was already doing well to begin with. |
 |
| Asahi in Niyodo's body makes me laugh. I like the change from his usual dead eyed self to this super cheerful and bubbly version lol. The Niyodo fans are also a hoot! I appreciate how dedicated they are lol. It's nice that she's trying to get him to be a better idol. She can be quite scary threatening his money like that haha. But man, the power of rote learning is terrifying. He learned those moves right away from years of trauma lol. It's nice she wants him to mold him into a proper idol so she's just not doing everything for him. Too bad the man's so lazy, he literally prevented her from going to heaven so he doesn't have to do the work lmao. He's a "dirtbag" but I love that about him! Overall, another fun ep! I'm looking forward to next week. |
| Holy, this series almost end on episode 2 lol. |
| . |
| Hahahaha this series is so fun and entertaining so far. Niyodo panicking upon sensing Asahi will pass on was pure hilarious! And I was like NO WAY she's passing on this early in the story!!!! Good thing Niyodo gave her a new goal. But wow, I just love the story and the characters so far. I know Niyodo is kind of a douchebag sometimes but he's just so relatable in so many levels. And Niyodo's hardcore fans are sooo adorable! Their group chat conversation is like me and my friends gushing over our fave idols hahahahaa. |
| The man is not gonna let Asahi move on from this world lmao, but he has saved his show from ending in 2 episodes, based. I hope every episode ends with Niyodo's hardcore fans, they're the best lmao. |

| Niyodo's fans are some of the funniest recurring characters. Niyodo's about maximizing the score with the minimum amount of effort. It could be attributed to muscle memory though? Asahi feigns the inability to possess Niyodo in an attempt to make him perform without training wheels. He delivers the stiff dead look his groupies know him for anyway but thanks to Asahi giving him hints from the audience, he adds that personal touch with the sniping pose. Since Niyodo can peform without her possesing him, Asahi finds closure and is about to ascend into the afterlife, which is bad news for Mr. Lazy Dirtbag Idol as that's someone who can do his work for him disappearing. To stop her from leaving, he offers Asahi a proposal she can't refuse... |

| At ep 1 I was pissed by the kuzu idol, but I expected the story to develop him into a good idol with some emo moments, so Im glad I picked up this show. Loved how he got into way more troubles bc of Asahi's ascend hahaha |

| Those Niyodo fans make this series the more hilarious. Niyodo is a true dirtbag, how can you drag back someone who's about to pass on because you want to use her.🤣 |

| I like the fact that he is being made to do the work himself. |
 |
| Wait why was this kind of precious. The rating should be higher, I nearly skipped it |
IF YOU HAVEN'T WATCHED ODDTAXI OR SAIKI K I'LL BONK YOU IN THE HEAD |
| Lol, good luck to genuinely motivate him, at least he's doing some good efforts even though he still doesn't seem to care that much but at least Asahi didn't disappear (well we're at EP 2 it's obvious anyway) |
 |
| If only Yoshino knew about how Niyodo would give out the former's address if a crazy fan ever broke in his house. |
