THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
The moment of truth with this final performance....
And the winner is Akari! Somewhat surprised its not Noelle but its a good thing too, since she's just a novice in this whole idol thing compared to the others.

The story helped bring Akari closer to her senpai, Ichigo. Now she holds a title which can be considered as above all the idols schools combined.

Noelle's win is an impossibility given all her competitors are all established idols, and winners of top idol awards in their respective series. The ending is correct, given that in Aikatsu the original series the protagonist do not win against a veteran on her first try.

Noelle: B-but I'm the protagonist!

So that happened, I guess.

Ichigo needed 100-episodes to defeat Mizuki, but that was only possible by partnering with Sora.

Yume has failed to defeat Hime in the 4-star selection cup, it took her another year 50-episodes later to establish her superiority over her senpai using the Sun Dress.

I wasn't saying Noelle should have won, I was just making a joke. I'm actually happy Noelle didn't win, even being her school's representative was a stretch.

Something expected, the song they choosed brought Akari's appeal,Rei and Hime-senpai have wonderful voices too but that was simply not the song for them. Noelle voice is just... the chewy voice that most of their protagonists have and not of my tastes.

I'm happy she didn't win, she need to adquire experience before that so the ending was perfect. I'm happy that it ended, I just didn't wanted to hear more: "lucky~".
I like to post in manga forum when I feel it is worth it, so people will think. "Shit, is her again" or something.

People asked me where I read certain thing but the rules say no telling where did you read so maybe I am too boring for not saying? Or salty because you didn't check my profile that says don't ask because I hate people to ghost me after that. I love learning languages so maybe I did not read the manga in English.

I'm glad Noelle got some well deserved attention with this ONA. It was very sweet and meaningful for the length.

If anyone should be next in line for something like this, I think Wakaba deserves a little more something. She got done pretty dirty tbh lol

Beautiful performance. I really liked that song.

Noelle wasn't experienced enough to win, but she'll going to have a shining future as an idol. I'm sure of that.

Congratulations, Akari! :)

This was a very good ONA. I want a new and longer season with more Noelle, Raki, and Wakabi.

As an avid Akari fan, I am happy that she won. She is the best!
I hope I can see more of these characters in the future. Aikatsu is one of my favorites series.

Aikatsu franchise has been a blessing to me. Watching these idols grow was just amazing. Also, Noelle and Raki being frustrated just shows how much they can grow. They have the potential and they will probably the face of Aikatsu in the next generations. I have nothing else to say but god I just love Aikatsu so much. Aikatsu is love, aikatsu is life! ♡˖꒰ᵕ༚ᵕ⑅꒱

Meh. Really disappointed there is very liitle effort for showcasing the performances from other schools other than Dreaca one. None of the new songs is good but at least their representative dresses look so pretty. Noelle is an alright character but a little lame for copying lululu just to be similar to her sister. The story is nothing new here, it's pretty much telling the same story how Ichigo inspire Akari and passing on the dream to be top idol. It sounds good but it's just boring and didn't try to make her character interesting. Akari isn't just a Starlight queen but also queen of all idols now. I thought they are going to choose one idol from each school to perform together on final stage but it's just meh on trying to decide who is the best amongst the best idol again. Happy birthday Oozora Akari !
