I won’t even tell you why I placed this video here.

First and foremost, I enjoyed this series. Here’s the ingredients for the show:
Idols.
SOPA/PIPA/CISPA gone real and worse.
Dreams and struggles.
…and the plot goes like this:
4 years ago, a Guerrilla performance was held somewhere. Four young girls (Orine, Yuka, Nagisa and who’s the other one?) passed the sewage to watch it.
The concert started. Everybody cheers. One of the girls cries with joy.
After the first song, an army of anti-entertainment soldiers came in to “prevent more damage to the brains of its fans” by shooting “NO IDOL cannons”.
Eventually, performers changed costumes and went on to become warriors.
…and so, Kirara!
Four years after, the 74th(?) audition for new members of the group are held. Online applications are accepted (good thing), but it should be encrypted (128-bit SSL? SSH? HTTPS? Shall I use TrueEncrypt?).
One of the girls, Nagisa, decides to join… and so her friends follow suit.
Of course, there is dorama here. Nagisa’s father is a government official. Conflict!
They passed the first auditions.
Not to mention that Yuka told his boyfriend that if she passed the auditions, he won’t get her autograph.
…and of course, Nagisa won’t just give up that easily. She even dreamt of her friends as members while she’s sitting there watching their performance, crying with regret.
The next day after, Nagisa and company went on to board a spaceship and proceed with the auditions.
From the recent post I did, you can see that I decided to compete this show with Hyouka. Here’s the outcome of my conversation with other twitter friends @kousakakiririn and @djmeganekon (aka the resigned EIC of the @deremoe Project, @adtcruz).
@kousakakiririn I wholeheartedly agree with this vote for the mystery @TCManila

Although I have picked Hyouka on my #3 Spot at the Watchlist, I decided to watch this.
Rating: I even gave this a +++ for the first episode alone.
