But that's a rejection, is it not? Maybe I didn't word it correctly, but by "rejection" I referred to his rescue and not to his daughter as a whole. Since this is a generally optimistic anime, I still have hopes for Nagisa's family.

Damn, either on the final episode or in the next cour, I'd like to hear their new song (Show Fight -- part of the Gingham Check 27th single) included as an insert:

I prefer this...:3



But since the content is about tsunami victims..it might be a little...careless if they put it there? :\
If not then some Team K songs like http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6AHj8uydUoY
. It's rockish, perfect for a fight scene, and the topic is about fight on which fit the series.

Yeah I thought so too. Since he did refuse to make her leave AKB.
But wouldn't it be better if he just say he want her to leave? Saying harsh things to her like that would really hurt her feeling. His choice of words was really careless :\

nice episode, especiall the cg, I am very pleased on how it turned out (I refused to watch berserk because of the cg), the characters still look 2d and the animation does not feel robotic at all, while we can stil tell cg and regular animation apart, the cg itself is very enjoyable kind of like mecha series.

Also, props on kanata's father who managed is the legendary wota that got killed by non lethal weapons.

IIRC DES uses lethal weapons. Actually I think the wotas uses lethal weapons too, though they do try to comply with the "don't kill" rule. DES isn't that careful.

I prefer to think that kanata's father is the legendary wota who got killed by non lethal weapons and the only casuality of the ban against entertainment, tho.

Any weapon can be lethal in the right circumstances. Tasers are only supposed to incapacitate, but use one on someone with a heart condition ...

True but Kanata's dad doesn't seem like the type that's weakly so it's awkward if he get kill by non lethal weapons....-_-;

DES does use lethal weapons. The only ones that don't is AKB0048 but it's bad for their image anyway.

They figured they should simply intimidate the girls. After all they are a corporate cops first and enforcers of the ban second. They will need a regime change to have the entertainment ban enforced in full force which will have fanatical soldiers doing what is effectively a purge.

I've decided I'm going to try to cosplay as one of the 75th generation.

These outfits are my favorites:
Spoiler:


I find it amazing that every single one is a tiny bit different. You don't see that very often in other anime...but no matter what style the girls are wearing, it's always been this way! I really love that! "WE ARE UNIQUE" heh.

Anyway, I have to get this outfit done for Otakon. That gives me one WEEK.
........isn't that hilarious?

*pumps fist in the air* OH YEEEAH, LET'S DO THIS!!!

As we're approaching the final episode, I thought of one thing, and it's how long a show could possibly leave an impression long after it ends. So far, only a few have ever left a searing mark in my memory.

I first approached this show with both curiosity and a little skepticism; I'll be finishing it up next weekend with an admixture of admiration (the girls' progress in honing their seiyuu skills), sadness (yeah, the real-life Acchan's gonna leave the group soon), and satisfaction.

Maybe this'll be the one show that positively changed my opinion about idols forever.


If I get to eat an omelet like this, I'll be thinking so much of her, much in the same way a Chanel No. 5 leaves an impression to the nose. No kidding.

Again, cám ơn for the vid... Now I can build up a compilation album (unofficial OST).

BTW, nicked them off again from Amazon:


And a parody of my making:

I'd play a drinking game where I take a shot every time Mamoru acts like a douche, but I'm afraid I'd die of alcohol poisoning if I did.

I'm really enjoying the show, I hope it's a split cour like originally rumored. Poor Nagisa.

I'm more partial to the OP but I admit the ED is growing on me. I like the verses but not the refrain so much.

That CM is interesting, the three girl are are currently believed to be the top 3 runner as future AKB center in Mayuyu, Jurina, and Paruru.

Episode 12 was great, What surprised me was how good that little background clip of symphonic Oogoe Diamond sounds. Now I really wish they'll have an OST coming out.

With that being said, I'm also surprised that Nagisa lost her voice and his dad refuse the rescue. With just one episode left, this little plot twist seems to add a little too much story element for my comfort.

On the other hand, the episode flows nicely without mush issue. Now we'll see how ep. 13 wraps it all up.


But I really hope they announces 2nd season in next episode, maybe Takamina's graduation might serve both as a link and the lead in?

Takamina's graduation will probably be the core of episode 13. I really don't think they're going to address anything plot-related now since they don't have any buildup. To begin with, the main reason for cutting the concert short was probably that they already had a second season confirmed. Otherwise they would have kept going with the concert to end in the highest possible note.
