| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Hmm, this series' finale felt rather melancholic. While there's still the usual members gathered together for a performance, it looks like the show aimed for a proper send off. Fitting for the conclusion. |

| Been watching it because I loved BanG Dream, the band members were cool especially Yuuto Goryou but for the show overall they could have done much better... |
 |
| decent finale and overall a decent show tbh. Well at the very least it was way, way, way, wayyyyy better than the original BanG Dream. It's funny how it still has the same old nakama bond stuff as the original yet nowhere near as annoying. Honestly the songs themselves weren't too bad as well, kinda catchy although nothing I would really listen to over and over. overall I give it a someone please give our poor Cafe Manager his time to shine/10 |
 'On-Hold' is another way for a completionist to say 'Dropped' |
| Next stop: AASide Pico.. I don't like the alternate universe thing because it doesn't even necessary to begin with.. |
| Good anime i don't know why i didn't love it like original maybe because Alternative setting of original |
 |
| ...what the fudge was that ending there?? Like literally just cut short instead of tying things up properly. Wtf. Seriously disturbed here. |
| Banri has terrible luck, he keeps having bad stuff happen to him. Ending felt kind of incomplete? I wish they showed if Banri made a full recovery or not. I hope they’ll make a season 2 where we also get to see the other bands some more. |
 |
| Man, i knew Banri wasn't okay from the start... but the power of music woke him up lol. I'm giving it a 7/10 just for the songs, especially the ones from Gyroaxia. |

| Please tell me this cutie is their future manager. |
| Overall, a decent series. A bit rushed, and early on, the various hesitations and refusals by the newly arriving band members seemed a bit contrived, but all that was offset by some creative camera work during the concert sequences. |
| Yooooo I was not expecting the series to end like that LOL. I mean sure a movie was announced in January this year, but I'd throw a fit had I been watching this as a seasonal. So first things first...I loved this series. I really liked the characters, and Ren is just so precious. I think Itou Masahiro really nails the "not being good at communication part," although at the same time, Ren will really try to get his point across when it's something he has a strong opinion about. I really love that since I can relate to him. He's still much better than I am though regarding voicing his opinions without care. The whole cast (well mostly Argonavis) seemed really down to earth and I could see them as real people. I felt like they acted their age as well, and it's really refreshing to have an adult cast who feel a bit more mature (emphasis on the a bit). Although I say this, I do think Nayuta is more on the...animanga side, as well as Ryou, the bassist in GYROAXIA. I love Nayuta, but he's definitely a bit angsty and I personally don't know anyone like that in real life, lol. Speaking of Nayuta, I like his fixation on Ren, even if I also think this is a bit unrealistic, given that GYROAXIA was much further ahead than Agronavis, which was just starting. The way he just calls Ren on stage was awesome a very animanga thing to do. I mean overall, the story's sense of progression was way too fast, the band is only 6 months old, but they've done some much already :'D It always takes me out a bit, when new opportunities keep arising, but I was always very engaged in the end. There was actually quite a lot of drama, but tbh it never got tiring to watch because they would be resolved rather quickly instead of dragging out. The usage of piano based bgm throughout the episodes was also perfect in terms of giving a more serious (but also slice of life) tone to the show. Not gonna lie though, while I love this series, how the 13 episodes went down as whole was alright at best. Not because of the events themselves, but just how fast they happened. I feel like this would've been a pretty solid series if not for the pacing. Well, and maybe the stiff 3DCG, lol. Realism aside, again, I love the characters, and I especially love the music! Not that I hadn't already heard them all before in AAside, but it was still fun to watch them perform in story. Even though Ren speaks timidly most of the time, he's rather charismatic on stage. Nayuta's voice is just sooo good, too, his voice reminds me of Taka from One Ok Rock (and his brother, Hiro, from My First Story). Ogasawara Jin's tone that he used for Nayuta is also a bit similar to OkaNobu's angry characters such as Bakugou, but it's muuuch better on the ears XD Anyway, I liked how they wrote a song for Banri and did a livestream to him in the hospital (with the help of Wataru's brother!). The lyrics of "Pray" mean a lot more now that I know why the song was made. Banri woke up at last, and I'm looking forward to the movie! I'm guessing it's going to be the bridge between this season and the game's main story? Edit: Oops, forgot to mention that I liked that they used mo-cap for the performances (I mean I guess it should be obvious they'd do that), because the characters and the real life band performances feel exactly the same~ |

| Quite a sad finale. Poor Banri. This obviously needs a second season. I would also like to see more Fantôme Iris, Fujin Rizing!, and εpsilonΦ. Anyway, a very good show. Definitely better than I expected, including the OST. |
