I found this anime quite by accident when I was just interested in anime. I always knew that what was found by accident turns out to be something stunning, incredible, genius! "Don't give up!" is no exception.
It took a long time from the first series, and I didn’t notice how it ended. She is cheerful, positive, vital, even if you call her completely real. Very well described and shown moments of filming: difficulties, joys, regrets and newfound goals.
The main character Keko simply radiates from herself perseverance and willpower. Learning her past and that even after she found out that her love for the “prince” and dream of becoming a Cinderella was just a dream, she didn’t fall into the mud, become depressed, or give up! On the contrary, she got a new goal: revenge on her “prince” so that he considered her a person, and not just a person, but a megastar! Yes, exactly. Keko went into the world of entertainment for revenge. However, as a result of meeting and working with various people, as well as the influence of Tsuruga Ren, who turns out to be a long-time acquaintance of Kuon, she no longer clings to revenge so much that she will bend Fuva to her feet. Now keko works for itself and never gives up when faced with difficulties. This heroine, though a fool, is strong, real masculine, and after watching this anime, some positive and energy immediately appears!
The drawing completely coincides with the drawing of manga, which is not always visible in other film adaptations. The emotions are just stunning, and the music is really just perfect. Of course, opening and ending I did not like very much, but it is not by them that anime should be judged.
And the disclosure of secondary characters only makes the plot more original and alive, and secondary characters are no worse than the main ones! Remember only the President, manager Ren Yashiro, Moko-san, Maria-chan, so immediately becomes lively, fun and interesting!
I really liked it, I don’t regret finding it and buying it. I recommend it to anyone who wants romance and positivity.
Cheerful anime in the style of comedy and romance - will help better ice cream for a disease called blues.
'Do not give up' - a good medicine, balm on the soul, which, however, slightly stings.
In many anime, there are moments from the past that my eyes shine with uninvited water. At first glance, the universal scoundrel Sho Fuwa turns out to be a man too. Just leaving the family for a dream, he forgot that people besides himself are also personalities and important. Why did he treat Kyoko like that? At first I decided he was just an ungrateful type, then I decided he was used to taking her care and care for granted, like a doorman whose job it is to open the door. So the work of Kyoki, he considered taking care of himself as his favorite, only he forgot about the payment, and she did not demand it. I thought she was rich enough to live with Fuva and cook for him. Growing up and raised together, they knew each other best. Jele, Sho-san's secret favorite delicacy, only Kyoko knew. But they did not know how they were separated from their mothers. Fewa didn't understand Kyoko. She understood too much, finished his image with light colors.
What we have, we keep, when we lose, we cry. At the end of the series, despite the sympathy of the couple Kyoko and Ren, but still felt sorry for Sho-kun, because he realized what a diamond he lost. He knew what he was feeling.
I especially liked the series ' She's like an angel' so changed the images of the characters. And Kyoko finally gave up, so to speak, to Shawn (Fuwa's pseudonym). And in this series it was shown that the angel becomes a demon and the brighter he was in paradise, the thicker the darkness in the heart after the fall. And even in this series, I saw how a person who loves what he does will make work much better than out of revenge.
Still, I think Sean was in love with Kyoko when he was a kid, he just might think of her as a sister. I made this conclusion based on his actions in the last ten episodes. And Ren, this guy is pathetic. Looks like a macho who seems to have had a lot of girls. In reality, Ren is a person who will search for any unfamiliar information on the Internet. Where can you find reliable information about love? I sympathized with his manager, trying to guide the ward on the right path to recognition.
In the opening, Kyoko ran after a blue bird, her dream, and maybe revenge. She only caught up with her when she stopped, or maybe just a dream decided to stop playing catch-up.
Friendship is also lit up here. Kyoko became friends with the girl who ran over her slightly in the first series. As Kyoko said: 'Swears, but still I'm happy'.
It is necessary to note the characteristic secondary characters: the Director, his daughter, manager Wren, manager Sean, etc. Without them, anime would not be at such a high level.
I've seen it and I'm going to see it again. The downsides are small, so don’t even cover them. This anime helped me. I competed with one person, but the result was insignificant. And I began to do for myself - the effectiveness increased, and it became easier to work.
The only thing is an uncertain ending. And the immense desire of all fans is the continuation of this masterpiece.

What is Skip Beat? First of all, this is a wonderful manga of Yoshiki Nakamura. The manga is aimed exclusively at the shojo audience. Moreover, the manga is officially published under license in Russian thanks to the efforts of Comics-Art. If the anime has 25 episodes and the story seems incomplete, then this is not surprising. After all, the manga at the time of writing these words is still published and there, of course, events are rapidly developing. If you want to continue the story, read the source.
The story revolves around a young girl named Kyoko who wants to become an idol. Frankly speaking, I did not expect much from this title. Perhaps my prejudice suggested that shojo was not particularly interesting to me as a genre. I was surprised when the series started. Unlike other fabulous shōjos, whose stories are stuffed with clichés and characters are full of stereotypes, our main character is not obsessed with a thirst for fame, money or power, as is often the case. All she wants is revenge on her ex-boyfriend. Kyoko will have to overcome many obstacles, both psychological and moral.
In fact, from the title of the title it is clear that in no case can not give up! The work is so interesting and difficult, but Kyoko is ready to overcome everything for the ultimate goal. After all, she is an independent and independent girl, achieves everything herself with her penetrating abilities and at the same time thanks to her feminine character, and does not wait for a prince on a white horse. Why not wait? Because she has already become disillusioned with the prince and now wants revenge on him. In addition to the motive of revenge, our heroine changes over time. Her hatred cools, her goals become different. In this regard, the title demonstrates the self-realization of the individual in the same way as “Bakuman”. In general, in Kyoko we see a rather fresh and unexpected character. Her hatred and natural decency are like yin and yang. Behind all this lies a lot of internal conflicts, which are quite interesting to watch. Moreover, as in any shojo, the viewer is still shown a very touching romantic component.
I can’t say that this is a mega-original story, no, it is quite typical for shojo, but because of the atypical desire of the main character to take revenge on his “friend”, we get unique twists in the plot and as a bonus entertaining humor. Thanks to this, a fresh shojo with its signature highlight is obtained. This is a shōjo that is interesting to watch, even if you are initially skeptical about it. This series is unlikely to leave you indifferent and definitely will not let you get bored. The title is incendiary, a lot of different non-banal humor. Perhaps there is a small amount of template in the characters, but it is not striking, because the character of the characters with each series blooms and is the engine of the story. The design of the characters is traditional, as it should be, for the shojo - made in the bisenen style. Which is logical and there can be no criticism.
Let’s move on to the technical component. The soundtrack in the series is simply good and does not distract from viewing, more precisely, it simply merges with the video series and perfectly harmonizes. All right. Opening and ending didn't really hook me. However, such things are for an amateur and I admit that someone liked them madly, and someone vice versa. The drawing is certainly very good and above average. It’s a bit sad that there’s no BD release. In my opinion, such things should be published in BD format.
Skip Beat! is not just a good shōjo with a unique story and an interesting plot, but it is also a wonderful comedy with great humor. Of course, anime is from the TOP category and is not just the pride of the shojo genre, but also the entire Japanese anime. Watching “Skip Beat!” time flies unnoticed and 25 episodes melt instantly, like any good fairy tale, of course, the story is not completed in the series and read the sequel already in the manga.
“In ancient times, the box created by God is always closed. It is created so that no one can discover it on their own. To each of us, God entrusts one of these, and we are born, keeping a box tightly closed.
A story painfully familiar to many girls: she gave up everything for the sake of her beloved - school, family and friends. She does everything for her beloved - she works in several jobs, takes on all household problems. She lives for her beloved, and does not notice how her life passes by.
Every time he comes from work, he looks at the windows of his house, does the light in the apartment light up? I'm really here! Oh, love, what is she doing to us? She molds us like a plate, whatever she wants. He wants a jealous man, he wants a madman. Sometimes we become completely blind, like our heroine.
She blindly believes the prince loves her. Turns a blind eye to his flaws and star disease. Blind love, it is insidious because it gives hope that it will never come true, and if it does, it will be too late. But, no matter what, love is a beautiful feeling. It gives birth to new facets in us and pushes us, sometimes to strange actions. So our heroine, Kyoko, did not fall into the abyss of despair, but instead began to fight! She set a goal - to get into the show business and take revenge on the sweet voice Shotaro. By the way, it was his bitter truth that became the catalyst. Larchik opened and with him was born a monster full of hatred and pain. These negative feelings awakened the talent of the heroine. Discovered her powers. Throughout the series, she will surprise and fall in love with us.
"Skip Beat" is a real energy. Unreal positive charge! A guide on how to overcome difficulties and find yourself in a new way. Plus, a brief overview of the starry world from the inside.
"Skip Beat" is a worthy continuation of the original source. The drawing is akin to the original, like the manga has come to life. Laughter to colic in the stomach, one number with radish on the casting what is worth! A bomb, not a performance! Or, for example, when Kyoko was dressed as Bo, and she had Shaw interrogate with an addiction. Anyway, I suggest you take a look! I am sure you will love him as much as I do.
I forgot to tell you! Since the series looks choppy, you will not have time to blink before they end. I highly recommend reading the manga! Believe me, it is worth it, because there begins the most interesting;
