My expectations for Aikatsu Friends! was way too high. Aikatsu Stars! was great and I just couldn't wait for the next series.
Then we have Aikatsu Friends!
I was way too hyped for this series, I regretted it. First episode was okay, that was because we were first introduced to the new dressing room (I thought that was cool) and our brand new protagonist, Aine.
I liked the art, the character designs weren't that bad except, they decided to throw in rainbow hair colours that matched their idol type. For example, Aine (cute-type): pink, Mio (cool-type): blue, Maika (sexy-type): purple and so on. The only characters that contradict
...
this is probably Karen and Mirai.
I couldn't give the sound a 8 because of the voice actors. Karen and Mirai's voice actors were fantastic but I disliked the rest. I love the ending song, it's very catchy, the solos by Mio and Maika were amazing. The music part is probably the best part about this anime. (EDIT: Sakuya and Kaguya's songs made me change my opinion. The songs are amazing)
I dropped this anime at episode 6, after they introduced Ema, I just couldn't continue on. I know there are new characters like Sakuya, a gothic-idol that you need for every aikatsu series but I still can't get into this series.
Honestly, if you're new to the Aikatsu series, just watch Aikatsu! and Aikatsu Stars! Forget about Aikatsu Friends!
