Honestly, just a cute compilation of a new teen band trying to navigate through their lives!
The anime introduces four high school girls who have decided to create a rock band. Something I particularly found enjoyable was that a few episodes focused on certain characters rather than the whole group. This created some sort of depth while still keeping the whole show lighthearted and artful, in a sense.
I think it's really catchy, for lack of a better term, and it is helping me learn Japanese, a trait not many animes have the simplicity to have. It is also based of of a real band, which I think is really neat and adds a different touch to the show. I recommend it for people who want to get...

Do you hear J-music? Do you even know what it is?
Well, the SCANDAL band is here to prove it.
It is rare to see nowadays, anime about music, more precisely anime about specific bands.

The band was created in 2006 and since then they h…

"Huh? Where did the school festival go? ...Ah well."
SCANDAL's dozen one minute episodes are by nature quite restrictive, but this is a series that knows how to make the most of what it has! ...is what I would like to say, but unfortunately when the question of how to utilize a handful of 60 second segments was posed, SCANDAL had trouble finding an answer. Luckily, it's not without its charms.
SCANDAL's brief duration doesn't give it a lot of room to develop much of a plot, and I came into it with low expectations accordingly. After all, semi-plotlessness can be fun too! Sadly, SCANDAL failed to get within even a stone's throw of my already low expectations. The vignettes are sparse, with very little to connect them and no semblance of segue from one to the next. Just when it seems they'…
