unfortunately, based on the first 12 episodes, the nurse and the arcade owner are approximately 100x cooler than the main characters in the show

that's ok with me. I enjoy the MCs well enough. we are only up to episode 3 and they just introduced the arcade owner who does indeed seem cooler.

overall it's pretty cute and chill so far, I can see the female lead getting kind of stale after a while if it stays static but 12 episodes is short enough that I'm not sure it'll get to that point.

Sidestory is probably the correct term since the series is all of the more notable events that they fast forwarded past in the main series.

goddamn bang dream my go loving owns. i implore all of you to watch it. ep 1 opens with a band breaking up and then it and ep 2 are good slightly downbeat light high school drama + getting started with a band stuff but ep 3 is just an entire pov ep from the autistic-coded character. like the entire thing is just from their eyeline, you only see their face in mirrors/reflections and stuff. they place a lot of emphasis on them looking off to the side/down to the floor and the small moments where they do actually meet someones eyes and how much that means to them, the way noises and visuals around them sort of blur together but which ones stick out and why, leading up to the ep 1 opening scene from their perspective as the band breaks up. its some really inventive directing that really takes advantage of being a 3dcg show. highly recommend even if you arent familiar with bang dream.

only real caveat is they do a tiny bit of 'wow i love *band from previous season/the game*' but its like literally 3-4 lines and makes sense in universe, just slightly goofy.

Yeah, but Yaiba is ending and a show being "in development" doesn't necessarily mean the animators are currently being lashed to their drawing tables.

hope after Horimiya Piece finishes airing
there be a list of chronological order to fit it into the main series.
I read the manga, so it be nice to see the rest they skipped animated, since i liked some of the side characters a bit.

but just to be clear you might be thinking of girls band cry, an entirely original girls band anime with no relation to bang dream or any other franchise. that ones coming later, not airing this season

Yeah that episode was just really great. Not only one of the best Bandori episodes but probably one the best 3d anime episodes period. Just great direction and mood

Also I love how the show isn't afraid to linger on shots to see just how hurt/emotional the cast is. Like a shot of Soyo hands fidgeting when Tomori was brought up.

i like how theres a few shots in ep 1 and 2 that just linger on tomori staring at something unblinking, without any expression on her face, like shes sort of 'loading' her response. its a pretty common neurodivergent thing and they hit the timing perfectly so that its something you can notice without feeling exaggerated

im two minutes into episode one and tomoris visible discomfort and making herself slightly smaller at 1:25 was very realistic
same with her looking away briefly when she starts speaking

I knew I'd like Yohane spin off cause I like Love Live but the first 2 episodes are really good in ways that feel different from typical love live beyond this being a fantasy spin off. It's extra silly but not in a way that takes you out of the world and Yohane is a really great lead and with her being the focus you have something that is really different than the actual main series. Yohane's original gag of being someone that hides her normal feelings behind Chuuni bluster 100% works for a lead and is being fleshed out in really interesting ways

Plus also a real good dog. I would pet the dog and go questing with it

there's been office romcoms out there, might stay another episode on Tiny Senpai. Weak part is that the guy in the story is so weak. I like a bit more back and forth between the leads. Similar to either Love is Hard for Otaku, or Servant x Service. Or even the other one with the shortie kouhai with the green hair
