Hey! So I wanted to give my perspective on this as someone who never watches Idol Anime.
I thought it was good, the music was fun to listen to and thought the characters were easy to root for. I got the sense that these guys were really close friends and had been through a lot together.

Episode of Jupiter is a wonderful way for fans to go from idol girls to idol boys.
A lot of what makes this prologue so compelling is evidently Jupiter: The work they're willing to put into making their fans happy and alleviate the burden of the staff that help them. Them striving to prove that they have worth and can make it on their own is a solid method of utilizing the goodwill they have garnered because of the aftermath surrounding 961 in the original anime and builds a solid base for Side M, considering they'll probably play a prominent role in that show.
The interview scene is the strongest example of characterization featured in this 30 minute episode: their posture, their body language, their way of talking, it all feeds into what each of the trio's charm points are. The way the…
