MaxLemon's Challenge: Idol Densetsu Eriko
This one will be rather short.
Ok this show was made in the late 80's early 90's so naturally it makes Scooby Doo look like Fate/Zero. HOWEVER my dear "friend" Mr. Maxlemon supplied me with the digitally remastered sound edition. I was unaware that it would make such a difference, BUT as it turns out this is more of a musical sing-a-long than anything else. The premise of which is, we have a main character who's father is a president of some idol business. The main character, Eriko, gets to see her father's current "idol". She seems to be performing in the bubble bowl from Spongebob, or some place Aquaman would find to be very welcoming. After the singing the 2 girls meet in the most intense death stare down I've ever seen. Honestly if they held it any longer than Eriko's inner monologue someone's head would exploded. After which her parents do their best Batman impersonation and die promptly. This leads to why Eriko wants to become an idol? Not entirely sure. Then the credits and ending song roll.
