I actually like their song a lot lol, and I appreciate that the animators made their dancing not quite in sync to show that they're still learning and growing

Sanada's first fan awww, his smile at the end was so precious

Be even better if he ends up dating her 🥺

the perfect feel good anime of the season i look forward to new episodes daily

Feel good anime. Will continue watching. XD

our baby ein is so powerless

fan letter??? fan letter???a freaking FAN LETTER on their first concert??? why do i feel like she had been following the group for a long time....that's not the reaction of first time meeting

Lovely.. still why just 10 minutes.. T___T.. pepe-chan <3

It comes out more regularly.

There will be 24 episodes so it will amount to a regular 12-episode anime just stretched out.

Pepe-chan is the best.

How am I supposed to believe that a major recording company with other idol units sucks THAT BADLY at promoting? Look, it was a great episode, but just flinging them out into a shopping mall with zero advertising ahead of time? These aren't established, popular idols in their 3rd year, it's an idol group of old men that hasn't even debuted yet. That wasn't just dumb, it was irresponsible. Not to mention a waste of money, venue, and goodwill.

Damn, I wish they had gotten a proper 20+ min. duration for each episode! It's more than possible considering each of the members have totally different personalities and interesting backgrounds. Not to mention other groups and other agencies, there's a lot that can be played with. But I guess considering that the idol genre is already quite a niche interest, it is a wise decision in a way to make short episodes. All I can hope is that they have more episodes, like a season 2 or something even! Need to watch out for official merchs

Ironically, asides from the fact that the Eternal Boys are ossans, this show reminds me a little of iDOLM@STER SideM, where I think quite a number of the recruits actually had other careers before they pursued in becoming an idol.

Yeah, I wish they take on a more 'middle-aged gentlemen' style and approach for branding (ala Paradox Live's cat's whiskers?) rather than trying to compete against younger groups directly using the same styles and costumes that younger boybands use. There is something appealing with middle aged men who wear suits well, you know. As a 30-something woman myself, I often feel uncomfortable fangirling over young idols... Wada Takuma is more right up my street haha

exactly! Middle-aged men are cool too, I just don't understand why they would shame them when they try becoming idols :0

As a 30-something man, I had that 'hmmm' sensation at how young some of the celeb/idols are....asking myself: is this strange? Is this how our older generations were? Well, it was probably ok for them....

What a heartwarming episode! ^__^

Good dance number, though it'd have been cool to see all of it, instead of just closeups.

Im sure the fan letter made his day :)

Sanada definitely has potential to be a good idol! He is the first to receive a fan letter, even if the hottest guy of the group Makoto didn't receive one yet! ;)

ngl, I like the song they performed.

well good live good live

He got first fan love letter? Unexpected surprise haha

I find it rather strange that a well known talent agency plans to debut a group without any real promotion or budget. I get it, they're grown ass men. But it's not their responsibility to work their asses up to get things done.

wow; a cutie gave him the letter as well!

Ooh, the drama is good but this pure feel-good episode was so nice! Really coming to love all the characters. They've gotten so good at dancing! And congratulations to SANADA!
