If any of the extra songs are anywhere near as good as "Ikenai Borderline" then I think we're in for a great time.

Yeah Ikenai Borderline is a wonderful song, as are the OP and ED they perform. Really looking forward to the album. Best in-anime idol group since the original Idolmaster for me.

Hard to believe Mikumo's singer is 15 and its Minori Suzuki first work, incredible. They really nailed the music for this series.

See, for me, it's the complete opposite. I think the music is a MASSIVE let down in this anime. EXCEPT, the vocals. The BGM is just massively forgettable and unnoticable. Compared to Kanno's works, it's garbage. The vocal songs are good and catchy but also pretty generic too, so still sort of a let-down...but they're still good in a generic way.

The unit's debut single shipped on May 11.


I guess the keyword here is shipped. It's been available digitally since December 31st lol.

edit: Another issue I have is that Freyja's singing voice/style is very similar to Megumi Nakajima's.

I almost had tickets to this event, but since I couldn't get into contact with any of my friends in Japan in time to actually pick them up, I lost the opportunity.

After hearing Reina and Makina sing in this week's episode, I want that album.

I have a really good travel agent with a reciprocal arrangement with a travel agent in Japan who does the fan club memberships and ticket bidding for me (except one rare case that needed mobile phone registration and then I asked a friend in Japan).

Are your friends in Japan on Line or twitter? That can work for quick contact.

Sort of a revival of Macross 7's Sound Bomber with an idol group instead. It's fun to have Macross series back again.
