EP 8

Last time the whole ep antica
This time uhhh
The op visual changed in the previous ep. i mean we already had 19 girls so the extra 4 girls i dont actually hear any difference in terms of the song

And the ep is over

If im being honest like uh..where did the 20 mins go? I mean. Its about what you expect
Very awkward. The aaa scene at the end is..different, I guess, I was not expecting the girls to shout so loudly so I got quite uh
I honestly dunno. I still like tenka, its just that her nature is like that. And the way alstro interacts and the anime

Thinking about it theres only a few more eps left. kinda hmmm
I did say the same thing about how, its a bit late
In theory better late than never although uh

Actually now that i think about it. in the previous ep it was only antica, and in this ep is only alstro
The cast list credits still seems to be the same did they just copypasta the whole list?

Theres 4 eps left and there's also exactly 4 groups left. If we follow the order of s1 then that means next is houkago climax girls? Although they really dont seem like the type to have dorama. Kaho gonna cry again.
And uh...the girls from this season have barely had any screentime as well
Im just really confused
Its a little confusing. Otherwise I think I actually prefer the ed song with the full image and vocalize

Why couldn't three of them be on the cover together? 😂 Then, all of the drama would disappear.

This episode is adapted directly from the original game's "Tangled Light in Pink" event. I recall this one being very highly regarded among players as far as event stories go at some point.
Here's a fan translation if anyone would like to compare:

I rarely comment on MAL forums but I had to come here after watching episode 8 just to say that I absolutely adored this episode. In fact it might be one of my favorite episodes of the Idolm@ster franchise, period. Even against some all-time greats from the OG IM@S, CG, and U149. I love a good well-written drama story, even when it's something as trivial as competing over a magazine audition with your best friend. I think we saw the best (and worst sides) of all 3 characters in this episode and the way they resolved their quarrel in the end was absolutely poetic. I think this anime is treated a bit unfairly, or at least in the wrong context sometimes. Sure the pacing is achingly slow at times, and the characters don't often face as much adversity as you'd expect, but underneath it all, this series genuinely has a lot of heart. It's pure and sweet to a fault. For me, Shiny Colors is the long-winded breath of fresh air IM@S fans needed after the chaotic and scatterbrained mess that was Million Live. This episode of SC will always stand out to me as one that captures some of the magic of earlier seasons, but still manages to forge its own path.
