I really enjoyed Marginal #4. But certainly it's not what you could expect from an idol anime. For me, being more similar to a slice of life instead of your typical idol anime that follows the path towards the debut is refreshing. Instead of focusing on a dramatic lineal story, I like to see four high school boys doing silly things. Acting like what they are: high school boys. I also really like the sense of humour of this anime. It's silly, but somehow works. It takes the cliches of idol anime and make it absurd, creating very funny situations that may have an angst take inany other idol anime. I found myself laughing hard a lot of times watching this anime, because of how absurd everything can be.

The characters aren't deep, but that works for this anime. They have some cute moments, and I find everyone enjoyable. Every guy has different personalities, nothing new compared to others idol anime.

Of course, the music shines in this anime. Though the songs can be more or less enjoyable, overall they have a good quality. Worth to mention the animation, which is better than most of idol animes.

Although I understand why most people don't like idol anime, Marginal#4 is worth watching if you're into this world. I think that's the best way to watch it, having funny and absurd situations instead of all the drama. If you're into idol anime, and want to have a good time, please give Marginal#4 a try. But if you're not, I don't think you'll enjoy it.
