| Other than Zombieland Saga, this is pretty much my first idol show, and I'm enjoying it far more than what I anticipated lol. How does this rate against your average or even the best idol shows? Could I also have some examples of the best idol shows out there? |
| Structure wise i think it's pretty standard, a group trying to accomplish a single or seperate goals, within a time limit usually. Characters are good without feeling too gimmicky or tropey, my best example for this show is probably the first Love Live. |

| yes, animation-wise Shine Post's sakuga rivals A-1's adaptations of The iDOLM@STER (im@s) series, Doga Kobo's Selection Project, or even S1 of Wake Up Girls (WuG), which afaik are the best examples of top-quality sakuga in idol anime. iirc idol anime generally suffer with poor animation (S2 WuG and Lapis Re:LiGHTs if CG doesn't mesh well for you), so this having surprisingly good animation for a not-well-known studio is a blessing. im hoping this can start a trend for better-looking idol anime in the future, as Selection Project, a Fall 2021 seasonal, also had very good animation I think the story is going pretty well. u might see similarities in other idol anime (IDOLY PRIDE... WuG and Cinderella Girls especially), and it's a bit more unique considering Producer's special power. unlike those anime however, Shine Post is a seasonal and is shorter, so it's easier to keep up with it while having jam-packed storylines Honestly, this being your first 'real' idol anime (i hear Zombieland Saga is more like a parody), this is a pretty good intro to the genre where you'll experience a little bit of everything: fun characters, currently good story, great animation, idol-like music (whether you like that or not). Definitely if you enjoy this after its airing, try out similar anime like it. i'd point ppl to iM@S (2011 anime) and IDOLY PRIDE for similar stories of zero-to-hero or drama; i enjoyed these two a bunch being a newer-ish idol anime fan |

It's more like Idolm@ster (which for me personally is a great thing, I'm not a fan of LL). Not just because it's focused on professional idols, but the direction style is way closer to Idolm@ster too. They aren't using crappy 3DCG animation for performances too (at least for close-up scenes). |

As someone that watches (tries at least) them all, Shine Post is the best I’ve seen yet. Other good ones, selection project, idoly pride, If My Favorite Pop Idol Made It to the Budokan, I Would Die. |
| I'm seeing lot of Youtuber praise this anime but sadly that Shine Post didn't have lot of viewer international and japans fans. I'm seeing lot of japan fans drop this anime. It also have very low streaming view. CD OP/ED single that release yesterday have lottery ticket for upcoming concert but it only sell estimate 1-2K copies that is very low. This is not very a good sign.  |

I just caught up on this show...I'm new to idol anime and really, really like it. that's sad. sounds like our girls are not fated for big things :( |
| The animation and song in this series are fine. Not something that stand out heads and shoulders above other idol shows - at least for now - but they are good enough. I think what makes this series unique is the manager being able to see through people's lies - whenever someone is not being honest, he can see a bright glitter surrounding them. The series uses the manager quite effectively for the story, especially in episode 6. Above all else, the series manages to pull you in and makes you root for the girls. As for best idol show - this is very subjective and depends a lot on your music taste, but i would say Bang dream, D4DJ, Idoly Pride, Selection Project and Love Live stand among the best. In Bang Dream, there are plenty of amazing bands, including Afterglow, Roselia, Poppin' Party and Morfonica. Their songs are real bangers. Same with D4DJ. Photon Maiden, Peaky P-key and Happy Around songs feel fresh and different in a good way! 2nd season is coming soon, with Merm4id and Lyrical Lily, so I can't wait! Idoly Pride and selection project feel like sister series, with plenty of similarities in regards to character and story. However, there's enough differences to make each of them unique. They stand out as having among the best animated scenes during the idol performance. Some would argue that B.B. from selection project is the pinnacle of idol animation, and they may very well be right. |
