Before watching this, I had no prior experience with anything to do with Show by Rock or Sanrio which I'm sure will either surprise or trigger people but I had to mention that to establish my pov here. With that said, let's talk sb69 Mashumairesh!!
Howan was apparently the mascot to some kind of a Sanrio store in real life until someone decided to feature her properly in a show of her own, coupled with a new voice to boot. She's a fairly basic country girl with dreams of stardom in the big city, pretty classic tropey stuff. So she travels to Midi City and by happenstance runs into the other three main characters of Himeko, Delmin and Ruhuyu.
As with most music shows, it's a pretty easy thing to digest. You get your arc of struggling, founding the band with a bit of drama mixed in. I wann…

Full truth: I love Show By Rock. The first two seasons of it, at least. The first season, while objectively nothing to write home about in the public eye, I personally thought was fun, funny, dramatic, silly, awesome, and reveled in its sparkly, musical silliness. The second season, I feel, improved on many of the first seasons flaws, though it itself isn't without its problems, and was still just as fun and entertaining. I own both seasons on Blu-Ray and when I heard that a third season starring an entirely new cast of characters was going to air, I was hyped as hell. I really thought I was going to enjoy this one, and having a new cast of characters can actually be refreshing if done right. Sadly, Mashumairesh had a promising start but ultimately failed to reach beyond mediocre.
So inst…

"Show by Rock!! Mashumairesh!!" is unironically an anime (season) I am looking forward to the most. Coming from a background of my specific joy in anime, I aim to steer towards something that has to do with music, loud and vibrant colors, cute and/or handsome characters, a ton of gender variety of characters, AND is a VERY HUGE TIE IN to a rhythm game for the smartphone. (Ideally I prefer at the arcades, but i can't be picky.) Sanrio, the godfathers of "kawaii character" culture that bought all of us Hello Kitty, My Melody, Gudetama, etc. had soft rebooted "Show by Rock!!" as a whole, starting off with introducting newcomers and the veteran fans (like myself) a girl band that starts of by a mix of off-SB69 ("S"how "b"y "69" (Ro-Kuu)) of: A Sanrio AniStore mascot (Howan), a virtual Youtuber…

It all starts with a girl from the middle of nowhere with a dream of music and making it big. Now if you heard that before I wouldn't be surprised at all since it seems to be a commonly used trope in media. But despite the start there is so much that Show By Rock Mashumairesh!! is able to do with it that puts it a cut above the rest. For while our main character, Howan, comes to the big city with dreams of rocking the world what she gets is something even more powerful and meaningful, strong bonds and friendships and a tight knit group where she can belong.
The big highlight in Mashumairesh for me are the characters and their interactions. The way that the characters are built up I think are quite organic and are done exceedingly well. Despite most of our cast being in a band together fro…
