Hey, watch Aikatsu! Come on, watch it!

The most important thing I learned from this episode is that to be yourself and remain popular, you should eat burg.

The people want to know: What happened to her rollers?

You thought this episode was only going to have one plot thread? Well think again. There’s also a rather interesting returning voice actress who made this all the more enjoyable to watch.

Choose your boi

Happy Valentine’s Day! Gosh, what a totally novel and strange thing for boys to confess for the holiday instead of the girls doing it. Maybe if Mio had asked me back in high school, I could’ve told her earlier… although she would’ve been a toddler at the time. Maybe these things just go in cycles.

Episode 044: Torrent | Magnet

Kyon!

There’s nothing quite like the surprise of one of your favorite voice actors showing up out of nowhere in your favorite show. I always believed he was a slider.

Reach them

A miracle visited me in real life when I watched this episode for the first time.

P.S. Thanks for being so kind, everyone. I was able to watch this episode with the maximum amount of enjoyment. If you joined me in my patience, you’ll surely experience the same amount of life-affirming joy that I had.

We are all but flowers beneath the warmth of the sun

The way that the small developments we’re given regarding Mirai and Karen this episode shed so much light upon everything that’s happened in the past is just mindblowing. And nothing beats sleepovers. I can only wish that they share some of their love with us over in our world as well. At the very least, I’ll be trying to spread my own like them.

Episode 041: Torrent | Magnet

Stop saying bad things about Onee-sama on social media!

The second day of the Diamond Friends Cup, and what a day it is. You thought they forgot about that one thing? They absolutely did not, and it’s coming back to be the climax of the Cup—get ready.

This is Aikatsu!

Finally, we’re back! And in more ways than one. There was that New Year’s break, but also, this episode was Aikatsu down to its core, the very essence of the show. Everything is coming together for this final competition to decide the Friends of Friends. Buckle in.

Also, due to popular demand, I finally got around to uploading everything I’ve written for much of Stars and Friends. You can find links at the very top of the Aikatsu Guide page.
