>idol
In D4DJ and Project Sekai video I saw comment saying about the only idol group in the game, saying “please give them a chance. They aren’t your usual idol group”. On personal note every idol fans probably think so about their idol group but that statement is probably aimed at neutral who have generic idea about idol group in animes. Like, people in youtube is really defensive because how idols are perceived in generic anime community.
Where is the spirit of “I like and do what I want, uncaring of how people around them perceive it”? same people who dislike idol anime are same people who say “wow I like this controversial youtuber because he doesn’t follow mainstream narrative/doesn’t mince his word/his opinion isn’t filtered”. Where is that energy when it comes to liking music/anime genre that isn’t popular in west (idols)?
>yuri
-if people think Revstar is yuri, it is probably because of Junna’s actions in early animes. She randomly dance with Karen then doing intimate pose during her fight with Hikari.
If a random viewer see that and think “oh, yuri” then watch anime and found she isn’t attracted to either of them then the viewer would think “this is a bait”. While people who watch from beginning would know Junna was just practicing with Karen and that is the scenario for Junna vs Hikari revue and wouldn’t think there is yuri specially between them
JunnaNana is another thing though
