EPISODE REVIEWS
Oh, wow!!!! This is a very interesting premiere introduction for the series. Although it carries a somewhat typical trope vibe like the magical idol fantasy trope with a familiar dynamic, the visuals remain the main attraction with its vibrantly colorful palette, paired with flawless 3D CGI animation, really bringing the beauty to the story. Also, I thoroughly enjoy listening to the soundtrack because it feels completely natural. Instead of forcing a song to fit the vibe, the music flows naturally and is incredibly pleasant to the ears.
I went for this anime because it's looked really pretty and I thought, 'Is this going to be my new addition to my beloved idol anime?'The answer was hell yeah!!Yuina, your typical main character BUT she's so charming you'd forget she's 'typical' mc. I won't say she's airheaded but well, she vibes with things, and logical people probably would find her troublesome.Anyway, the freaking animation is PEAK. High-quality angles, pretty designs, and even their movements looked smooth, especially when dancing! Then I remembered they're Bandai Namco; Sunrise, and was like 'Yeah, that checks out' cause it definitely precedes the improvements they've had ever since Love Live School Idol Project and onwards.Well, it's very idol-y with all that witch and magic thing. I really like the premise and find it interesting. And in this ep, we're given their very first ride with magic!This episode sets the stage for the series, so it's definitely a MUST-watch!Oh yeah, that frog sure talks a lot. .... I weirdly found myself happy about it XD
This episode was really entertaining because its main trope is for the main cast to help other characters overcome their personal struggles. I absolutely love the art style of this anime. The characters have such adorable designs, I especially love the way their eyes are shaded, it makes their appearance look more lively.
