Good episode, seems like we can look forward to some good team work of Yukiho and Haruka.

Though it seems like Serin rushed this episode, a few parts that could've been translated differently and I've also noticed one or two typos. I really hope they will release a v2.

As always, looking forward to more!

I just realized the interesting inversion:

the main series imply that you, as the Producer, are the "Idol Master," or the one who is in charge of the idols. Here, the "Masters" are the girls themselves, and the "Idols" are the mechas, however awkward the naming scheme is. This show completely focuses on the girls, which is quite something.

Also, "Coach." Really. I know it's not a Gunbuster reference, as I don't want to think this show has a hard on for Gainax, but, well, it's difficult to not make the easy connection.

Lastly, a lesser show would have had both Haruka and Yukiho pass, especially after that cheesy "storm clears just as Yukiho's doubts are cleared" scene. Instead, they stay friends and co-workers, compensating for each other's weaknesses. Not too shabby.

Yukiho didn't really believe in herself, but Haruka made her see her potential.

Unfortunately, she couldn't get Imber going, but Haruka is technically the only one who can. Yukiho has been offered another position though, and she appears to be taking it with stride.
