Whilst it may be a vast understatement to say AKB0048 has not been widely acknowledged as the outgoing season’s highpoint, it has at least recovered some credibility with a rather well received beach service episode…

Lesbian? I didn't see much regarding that.
Honestly, yuri is the main reason why I watch this anime.
Is this true or a complicated way of saying you have no reason why you watch this anime?
So you didn't see the yuri goggles in #72?
Misleading title is misleading once again.
Thanks, SanCom.
Ride that banana.
Well, okay. I'll download just *this* episode.
What is up with these disgusting red shiny patches anime/manga girls have on their skin?! Did someone rub their cheeks and boobs sore?
Im tired of shiny pink cheeks, elbows, knees, and boobs. Stuff turns me off and always appears at the wrong times like when im fapping to hentai.
Cmon completely unnatural blush is unnatural.
She was stung by a jellyfish... That's why her breasts grew.
Sun-burned boobs?
SHAMEFUR DISPRAY
That anime is a trap to catch pedophiles.
you're nuts!
Damn ppl! try to watch it before judging... I would never guessed it'll be so good, but damn, i've waited for it's episodes more than other animes this season
you're in internet.there are lots of dumb asses who think that they know everything only from reading a single article
again anon, I love lolis but I dont like the akb48 anime so clearly it fails at being a trap :D
What pedophiles? I had the impression that the *48s are mostly mid teens.
IdolM@ster, this is not.
Crap, just like the "band" it's modeled after.
How typical.
who da thunk miss "purple" and miss "green" had racks, especially "purple" (I watch the show but I'd be damned if I actually could remember every damn girls' name XD)
gee...
This show might surprise a lot of you. Give it a try. It keeps surprising me. It hasn't got a lot of attention, but it started late in the season. Some people are calling this Idolhammer 48AKB for a good reason, Episode 3.
Did anyone notice that they have hearts on there eyes
Were is the one that had an affair with his friend here?
ok
Oh, a beach escene.............clever!
just shameful....*fap*.....yes just shameful *fap fap*
not really, whats it matter lol, it's like the old Mr. T cartoon, or the Chuck Norris one, it's just to boost popularity
*Grunt*
Yes very shameful *fap fap fap* Mhmmm shameful indeed
*Spurt*
Now came to my mind a lot of Shonen Jump, Weekly Playboy, Entame, Comic Spirit and so on Magazines with AKB48 photos hahaha.
Nothing new really, its just the anime version of the well know AKB48 Gravure version.
Yeah...fap fap
What an odd place to put the beach episode...
Seriously!!
Can anyone name one anime that doesn't have a beach or festival episode...GOD DAMN
I'M SICK OF THIS...I NEED A TRIP TO DR. ORIGINAL!!!
Can't stop fapping, won't stop fapping
Hehehe their expressions are cute.
So when's the ecchi spin-off's coming up?
You mean yuri spin off? Since QB finished some anime would have to continue fap lesbian as usual.
where is the carnivorus?????
Caged by the producer to benefit the public feminist who hates most men even in anime .. In favor of protecting small little flowers bloom
So what did their tits get sunburnt or...?
They were stung by jellyfish...
where is the carnivorus?????
what's with these weird character designs?
they look like all over the place
it's like they were watching precure, one piece, and minamike okawari all at once.
Characters all have to be the same?
SUpposedly it's to distinguish an official member from a trainee, from an "original" member (which is how I personally interpreted it)
Whether or not it's working is up to the individual...
"precure"
Well, that makes it soooo very specific. I mean, it's not like the they change the art style between each series so much that the crossover movies look like a Drawn Together ripoffs.
All I can do it sigh heavily at this.
I am going to laugh when someone saids a Anime sucks, and suddenly ether it continues or is well liked by fans.
That's the same thing that happen to Infinite Stratos someone told me it sucks it manage to do alright as a Anime.
show was great, english dub was weak, had a meh ending, good CGI battles, not long enough.
Overall a 6, maybe a 7 out of 10 if you're into harems XD
Personally I enjoyed it tho, time did not feel wasted XD
Honestly, this anime was directed by Shōji Kawamori and Yoshimasa Hiraike who help make some good animes.The only reason why some creepy Otaku hate the anime is because AKB48 scandal, I have to say its laughable this anime is still going even if a lot of Creepy Otaku hate it.
The art looks...good?
That's all I can say about this...other than that...why?
Obvious Macross Frontier rip-off is obvious.
How can it be a ripoof when is made by THE SAME F*CKING PEOPLE?
Just because it was made in the same studio as Macross Frontier, it doesn't mean it's made by the same people. Sure, the animators might be the same, but directors/writers are not.
Say that again once you checked the staff.
Wow this candy colored shit looks exactly like all the other anime Sankaku jizzes over, with the exception of Fate/Zero.
