The beginning of this anime is hype! The music is so good that I have to repeat again. I think it is also relatable, though in a different situation, since being an idol is already someone's dream.

So from here, we’ll watch Honoka chase her dream. However this episode is a solid introduction to the anime. The CGI may not be amazing since it’s a 2013 show, but the mix of 2D and CGI is perfectly synced. I’ve rewatched it multiple times, and it only gets better over time.

Episode Context

As the series premiere (episode 1 of 13), this episode lays the essential groundwork, introducing the threat of school closure that drives the entire season's narrative and establishing Honoka as the catalyst for action. No prior context is needed; this is the starting line. It directly sets up the next episode, where Honoka and her friends begin exploring the idea of becoming school idols as their strategy to save Otonokizaka.
