YMMV / Wake Up, Girls!

Go To

  • Awesome Music: "Stand Up!" (タチアガレ!), the song WUG! performs at the end of the movie.
  • Fandom Rivalry: With fandoms of more lighthearted idols shows like Love Live!, The Idolmaster and Aikatsu!.
  • Memetic Mutation: Ota Kuniyoshi's scream and accomanying emotional face from Season 1 Episode 12 ("GANBATTE, WUG-CHAN!") is a very popular reaction image within (and sometimes even outside of) the idol fandom.
  • Seasonal Rot: The third season is seen as a downgrade from the previous ones. Factors for this include a more episodic plot in contrast to the longer form storylines in the previous seasons, long stretches of runtime without animation in some episodes, and more simplistic characterizations.
  • Signature Scene: The only moment that stands out was Ota Kuniourshi screaming for WUG at the end of their performance in Season 1 Episode 12.
  • Suspiciously Similar Song: One pice of background music in the third season is obviously an instrumental version of Khalid's song "Location".
  • Visual Effects of Awesome: The final performance number in the third season is widely praised by fans, incorporating a lot of good animation and CG to make a believable performance. Especially compared to how the rest of the animation that season was received.
