EPISODE REVIEWS

Chie time!! The episode shows that Chie, despite being pretty much the most quiet of the bunch, can and is quite reliable when it comes to problem solving. The use of her sewing abilities to just solve the main problem seen in the episode was wonderful.As always, references to other im@s stuff is appreciated, the dresses are based on the main color of the attributes given to the idols and also Tsukasa jumpscare.

The episode beautifully explores the pressure and nervous anxiety that comes with stepping onto a big stage, capturing that relatable fear of messing up and letting everyone down. The character dynamics are incredibly sweet here, showing how a supportive push from both the other girls and veteran idol Tsukasa helps Chie find her quiet confidence. It’s a very touching, emotionally resonant episode about overcoming self-doubt.

Animation once again takes home the prize, The indirect lighting always adds a nice touch, and the right music always plays during important moments. The way seems out of character for Sasaki Chie. Like the first few episodes were great since they tackled things that were legitimate worries for the girls. Now it just feels fake, forced insecurities are forced insecurities, nothing real about them.
