Kirarin Revolution - We must go our separate ways
Not even Kirari’s cute brother can get me to continue watching this series (even though he only appears for 1 episode.) According to the manga we never even see her family members, so he’s probably a made up character anyway. In any case, I’ve decided to drop Kirarin Revolution, blog wise and viewing wise. I was gonna stick it out for the 26 eps but from the way things our going, it’s hit the “Sugar Sugar Rune” pattern of being a bunch of crap until the last 10 episodes which will conclude it to be around 52 episodes.

For those watching, (and not watching) you probably guessed that Kirari is still determined to quit being an idol and she stops going to her lessons. She tries to tell her point of view to Seiji and Hiroto but they explain to her that they’re disappointed (Hiroto) and that you can be competitive and still have fun (Seiji). 
Kirari’s manager shows her how all the other staff are working hard to make sure her single gets up there and then while on her way home it happens to be the day of her drama’s premiere and everyone around her watching is awwed and thinks its so wonderful. Even Seiji makes Hiroto watch it and cracks a joke causing him to blush. In the end on the Music Station wannabe show, Ships win but Kirari just sees it as something to “strive” for.
One of my earlier Kirarin entries someone commented and suggested Seiji is like gay and in love with Hiroto. I thought that was silly, but now I’m starting to have second thoughts. I was kinda cheering for Seiji x Kirari at first, but the anime is pushing her towards Hiroto so I have a feeling that’s who she might end up with. Seiji feels like her “father” giving her good advice while Hiroto’s always angsty and bitchy but deep down inside it’s obvious he wants her 
I usually never check the opening sequence but this time for some reason I did and noticed they changed it. It looks like Kirari’s seiyuu, some girl from Morning Musume, was doing the weird dance sequence and cosplaying as Kirari. The episode is basically the fact that Mr. French director decided to have a competition between Kirari and Ships to see whose newest single will sell more copies. 
So….Kirari is basically flipping out because the last scene left to film is the kiss one. It’s interfering with her other idol activities, such as performing (where she trips and falls before she even starts to sing) and for photoshoots where she can’t even sit still for the guy to do her make up.
