| Fuck you Mio |

| The outfits are adorable!! I think it looks best on Mio. Ehh but for the duo they could ditch the scarf thing. Cute messages <3 Rock girl please shut up about rock for one second. Love Laika looks and sounds good. Nice job girls! Hmmm, New Generations didn't seem to go well. Are they shocked by how small the crowd was? It's their debut so you can't expect for much fans if any at first. I.. I don't really get Mio. The producer was right through and through; he would be more cruel not being honest. Mio's being way too selfish and getting ahead of herself. |
| Anastasia's eyes are... captivating. She looked like a snow angel in that dress. Combined performance? What the heck?! They cut away from Anastasia's and Minami's performance for what? to watch the others fail? ... RAGE! And what was with Mio, did she not see Love Live! ep3? It seemed they wanted to go for a similar affect... they failed. Step aside Mio, we already know Uzuki is center. |
| WTF that annoying mio and wtf Rin is going to blame the Producer too? mio shouldn't be in the unit, she's so unsuitable to be with the 2 other. mio is so annoying when she first ever showed up in the show. |
| Mio is an idiot. Did she honestly believe she'd have the same audience for her debut as a well-known idol? Someone needed to slap some sense into her. These kinds of char developments really annoy me. |
| Spoiled Brat # 1 -> Miku No debut, Time to go on Strike... Spoiled Brat # 2 -> Mio Expects to be popular instantly I see a trend here... |

| Loved the Memories performance, Anastasia is just so dazzling and Minami has that mature appeal going for her as well. Cinderella Girls started out as a treat I was hoping to savor, but now I'm reluctant to go any further. I don't want to constantly compare this to the first iM@S series, but it feels like a considerable downgrade. I understand it'll take time to give a cast this large proper screen time, but the characters just don't feel that dynamic. If anything, this feels like it's just way too safe. 765's iM@S is far more eccentric, loony, and wild and the personalities are much more diverse. But even with that comparison in mind, I was starting to warm up to this cast and could work with the safe, cutesy fun. But...this drama....wow, I felt so awkward watching that. This was so misplaced and could have been handled much better. What I did salvage from it, however, was that the producer isn't good at expressing himself and communicating with the idols (which was called out by Miku last time). I can even understand Mio's feelings as a performer myself. When you get an audience of 1,200+, it's hard to appreciate the quieter nights when you only have 50-100 max. I'm really hoping this can recover, I love iM@S and don't want to end Cinderella Girls on a bad note. |
| These girls...expecting to fill the budokan in their first concert -.- |
| |
| Right, that was just stupid. |
| Oh come on, not this "quit being idol" shit again.. In reality, you quit, no one really cares, they will barely try to stop you, one less rival which is rather good for others. But in god damn anime, they will convince the hell out of you to stay. |
| Wow.. I hate unnecessary drama like that. First the other girls go on a strike because they can't wait and now she cries because the audience reacts differently to them who just made their debut than they did to a famous and really hyped idol like Mika? They should just throw all of the annoying girls out and we would be left with a small number. Seems like I'm watching just for Shiburin anyway.. :/ |
| Mio didn't have to have that emotional dramatic scene at the end; it only made her seem more like a bratty teenage girl. I mean of course there wouldn't have been as many people at their debut concert because I mean its their debut performance, it was just stupid of her to believe that there would be millions of people coming. She should just be thankful that she's already had her debut, I mean none of the other girls has gotten their debut yet. |
| I just want to know what was Mio waiting for. I mean, nobody knows her and was obvious that in the concert debut there was only a few people watching. And what Producer said was the true and the truth hurts. |
scytheavatar said: In case anyone needs prove that Mio is a piece of ****: Compared to Love Live's first concert Don't forget WUG's first concert, or better yet, first couple of concerts. Yea, Mio is too selfish and lacks understanding of the idol industry. Did she really think that their first concert would have like 20,000 people? I'm with Producer on this one, it was natural that the performance would lack fans, but at the same time, New Generation had decent support. Minimum, maybe 50 people at the concert, counting the 2nd floor which had Mio's friends. Like Producer said, one step at a time. He isn't going to put his idols in a huge concert with 50,000 fans watching. Their first gig was natural, they will slowly work their way up like LoveLive and WUG. Mio deserves to get slapped. The face Rin made at the end, really Rin? |
| Seriously Mio? You're just starting out and you think you're some big shot already, slow down dude. What you really need is a brightslap... |
"Fortress Maximus has come himself. Okay! Then I shall get Fortress Maximus to fight me, huh huh huh!" |
| I am surprised they didn't make Miki screw up the performance, they mentioned more than once that she wasn't getting that turn right, and it would be a much better cause for drama than Mio's crap. |
| I don't have a signature. |
| Mio is so dumb... I think the producer already gave her a hint that her 1st debut stage would turn out like that when he said that this was the "first step". I don't see anything wrong with the producer's response that "this is natural", it's just that Mio interpreted differently because she was so hung up on herself. No wonder she is dead last in polls, she is really embarrassing.... Poor producer... getting yelled at by Mio and receiving the unnecessary glare by Rin. I thought Rin was more level headed and smarter than the other two, guess not. |
| That was quite...um...early? I mean, it was only last episode when their unit was named. Having a breakdown in ambitions and character relationships right now? And here I thought Miku's bit in the previous episode was a tad too soon. I understand the need to push things along, as well as needing to introduce some element of plot to keep people invested, but geez. Again, I'm looking far more into this than I should, but it I really do want this show to perform well. It doesn't help that I'm not too keen on groups, as I prefer individual characters making themselves known. In groups, the characters lose their sense of individuality, becoming homogeneous with the whole. The characters themselves become indistinguishable beyond their gimmicks, which is a similar problem I'd apply to any similar show to feature a large group. Actually, because there's such a large group, it makes individual attention even more important, else everyone would simply get singular lines in between commentaries/reactions to remind audiences of their face and gimmick. I don't dislike Cinderella Girls, nor do I dislike the group setup, and I'm actually interested to see how this show functions. You have shows that beg to be analyzed, and are often built on layers upon layers. For something like this, everything is laid bare, so taking it apart requires little effort, revealing its inner workings and intents quite easily. The biggest problem thus far is how much Cinderella Girls tries to do within the span of an episode. It's definitely much more difficult than the previous iteration, as there's more idols to give attention to. Furthermore, with the linear way the show is structured, it doesn't allow for much flexibility. You don't have a chance to know anyone since there's always some event on the horizon, negating any chance to calm down and give individual characters attention. It has been 6 episodes and there have been 2 concerts already. Without a doubt, the appeal to this is getting in more songs and dance sequences, as well as letting audiences indulge in their animated splendor. However, this doesn't lend well to the importance of each individual performance. While this was the point of the second performance here, even the first one didn't feel all that special either. It didn't feel "earned," if that makes any sense. It just kind of happened, and suddenly the New Generation gained instant bragging rights. Once again, this is probably the point, where Mio needs to understand that popularity doesn't happen overnight, especially with this being the New Generation's debut. This doesn't stop me from being concerned with the anime though. |
| She got full of herself and thought that there will be tons of people waiting for her first mini concert. I won't say that she deserved that, but she certainly deserved to hear the harsh words from Producer-san. Even so, her first performance was as a background dancer with a famous idol. Did she really fucking expected that it'll be the same with their concert ? I was like P-san, didn't understand first what she means by "won't we be on their way ?". I understand the glare Rin gave to the Producer, but i also understand why Producer did say that. So naive, the girl was. Not everything is bright on the idol world. I hope that the rest of Cinderella Project, especially Miku, will wake her up by slapping her. That's a shitty leader they got. For now. |
| Mio-san is acting like it's all Producer's fault. Aw poor producer-san, he working so hard for the girls but Mio is just full of her ego. |
| It looked the Producer was going to explain what he meant like he did before but no one else caught that on and just left... |
| Wow that went stupid fast. Why is the cast so one-dimensional, its beyond comprehension. Also Mio is such an idiot. Ofc there will be few people, its ur first concert for Gods sake. Heck its a mini-live, do you even get the meaning. Be grateful that u got even these people. I invited a lot of friends but as there are not enough ppl so I look uncool WHEN the said friends have said no such thing. Theres jumping to conclusions and then theres going insane with it. Also the look Rin gave to producer... Well then idc about too Rin. I thought you would understand him. Guess Uzuki is the better one among the main 3 tho she got ganbarimasu-ed. Producer is the best. He did nothing wrong and gets all that crap. Also liking Nitta. N Anya too to some extent. |

| Holy shit, Mio is retarded xDDDD She is really full of herself, having that much audience was more than enough for what she did so far, everyone was so happy with that small performance but she got salty instead. Producer doesn't deserve that angry look from Rin, he's doing a good job at giving them chances to shine. |
| This episode is nice. Though didn't expected that from Mio. Tough time for P too. Being a producer is hard. |
| It's a good ep until I got forced to watch a teen childish ego. Poor producer. |
| Lol Mio quit because there was a small and uninterested crowd watching? xD Give me a break, you're in a shopping mall! Most people are there to shop, not to listen into the performance. In addition, this is the New Generation's first debut. No one knows who they are. People are not going to magically show up and watch where ever you perform. You need to become famous first before that happens lol |
| Lmao did she really expect a huge audience on their debut? they even called it a mini-concert what an idiot. Her friends even came to cheer on her and all she did was run away and act like a child. What an ungrateful prick. Annoying character lists. #1.Mio #2.Riina #3.Miku (I kinda understand her action but shes still annoying nonetheless) |
| Mio is stupid af, even if she was younger, you can't think that there will be 5000 viewers for a first time in a mall. You can't compare with Miki, she have legitimate reasons for quitting, here it makes just no sense. And Miki was right about being a little egoist, it's needed when you are a dancer, actor etc.. Here the problem is elsewhere. And being disapointed ok, but quit.. please wtf. |
| Love Laika's performance was so beautiful. Minami and Anastasia did a great job! ^^ Poor Mio. She had way too high expectations. Now she's angry and disappointed. You can't expect to have a huge audience in your debut concert. And poor producer. He didn't do anything wrong. |

| And.. Snap.. Well.. It was going to.. In one way or another.. |
| Damn, this episode was kinda sad, I feel bad for Mio. |
| haha mio needs to be slapped asap. no way her narcissistic attitude flies well in the music industry. |
| Mio’s behavior at the end made me so angry lulz. Initially I thought she had messed up during the performance, and walked off upset, which would’ve been reasonable and made me feel bad. But she was upset at how little people attended their DEBUT MINICONCERT? Of course it wasn’t going to be as successful as their first performance, especially considering that WASN’T their performance, they were just back-up dancers for an already successful idol. Maybe it’s disappointing but she should’ve at least been happy that she did well and had her friends cheering her on. Producer-san could’ve tried to reason with her but he wasn’t in the wrong at all. Totally unnecessary paragraph for an anime i’m 10 years late to and might drop, but I was so irrationally angry I had to get it out haha. At least everyone’s outfits were super cute. |
| They're a debuting outfit performing in a shopping mall. Mio really expects the entire building to be full? The thirty or so people paying attention to it seems respectable enough for a short song like that. |

| LOL who does Mio think she is? Does she actually think all those people in the packed concert during her debut came to see her? She was just a background dancer in Mika's concert. This is only her second concert and a tiny one at that, and she expected a packed venue again without even having a proper fanbase of their own yet? |
