(L) Idolm@ster Cinderella Girls

[Requiem-x]

That was awesome! Like, it actually was! I'm ashamed to say I didn't know Ranko wasn't into horror until now either, though Anyway, this episode was just full of so many good stuff, like the fact P-chan (goodness, Miku) actually has a translation book for Ranko's chuuni talk, he's still trying to not sound so formal, Anya being adorable as always, Koume and Syoko's cameo, and of course, Ranko being so utterly adorable. That last part with her and P-kun looked straight out of a galge, and a pretty good one. And a good song to top it all off. Can't really ask more from a stand alone episode.

Next week's looks like Kanako's turn. Sweet

It's really impressive how she stands out. I honestly didn't expect anything from her at first, but she's been getting some fairly good use. Also, that last bit was awesome, she even nodded to Ranko's talk and all earlier, but I thought she was just rolling with things Hopefully she gets her own episode.

Also, I kinda want a beetle pillow now.

And finally, I can watch the episode again. This time with subs. Some or rather most of the sentence are hard for me to understand when ranko goes Chu2 mode.

I don't remember their conversation, which means It wasn't something meaningful enough for me, but I do remember her outburst itself where she questioned chuunisms, which was completely legit.

Well, even if I still don't understand Tankos popularity, I do like her more than most girl that didn't get their spotlight episode yet at least.

Notice how Ranko is the only anime CG to have a solo single so far, and she's hard-carrying like a bawss.

I'd like to see how the popularity ranks change this week.

And then there's my friend who's still annoyed by Miria when I find that exact bubbliness adorable.

Rika's pillow made it? I must have missed that one.

I need to rewatch at higher quality. My shitty internets supported only eyecancer livestream so I've only just downloaded the subbed version.

Time to Chuuni at 1080!

Well, Ranko is a unique girl.

Yes, in the scene where you get to see what the girls brought in the middle of the episode (shortly before Anya's constellation globe).

[blakstealth]

Wow, I actually kinda like and not dislike Ranko. Only iDOLM@STER can so such things. The bad taste Chuunibyou left me is going away.

How Miria is the only one that understands what jibberish Ranko spews is also funny as well.

[rxrx]

If you play the game, it is said that Ranko is a really shy girl and cannot even speak without the chunni stuff which acts as her armor. Sure, she likes the goth but she really needs that as a mask to interact with others.

[Tenzen12]

...that actually make sense. Well Chuu2 as armor of choice still shows how immature she is, but I guess I can like her more tan before while knowing it (There is still six other girls I like more and most of them weren't even properly in spotlight yet, but that's good enough)

She is really cute.

Caster and her Master

Ranko reminds me of Ravel. Is Ravel based on Ranko? its like when I saw Yue from negima. It reminds me of Patchouli from Touhou.

I saw a Illya and Baasaakaa.

Also:

Highlights of the most popular Producer ever. OMFG. Even Sugita got in on the act:

Anyone know of iDOLM@STER Side M? Takeuchi-P is exactly what that branch of idols need!!

Ilya and Kotomine but Ranko isn't loli. Plus the reason I said Caster and her master is because of Ranko's fallen angel goth chu2 character.

[EroKing]

[MeisterBabylon]

But when standing beside Takeuchi-P and Kirari, she technically is loli!

What I said doesn't contradict what you said either, as Casters can be Masters too.

And oh my god, I anticipated the prices of Nitta cards to rise, but NOT BY THIS MUCH!! I think I managed to triple my investment of drinks thanks to the anime. Ranko however has always been doing well so I didn't really make much this episode.

EDIT: I ended up watching the recap episode. Only HALF of it was recap. The rest of it was a pretty neat talk session. And now I must hunt for the Cinderella Girls Budokan Live!!

EDIT2:

This is after episode 5. The Cinderella Girls do regular shows, and someone has been leaking them to youtube. Watch them all before youtube eats them all!!

EDIT3:

BALALAIKA!! God damn Anzu's otaku powaa is too stronk.

[James Rye]

Daw, Ranran's so cute! <3
I can see why she's a huge fan favorite. Wished I had a fancy talk translator though. XD

Hmm ... I wonder if this is a hint as to who one of the upcoming trios will be releasing a cd debut?
