In the United States, pole dancing was more or less introduced alongside what became stripping, at least in part because you often need more revealing clothing so your body can grip the pole for tricks. Plus some of the tricks can kind of feel a little like you’re showing your privates even though you’re clothed lol As a person doing pole fitness (pole dancing but both the title itself and the training emphasize strength and flexibility training rather than performance/erotic performance) in the west, the sexualization can feel hard to get away from sometimes. I’ve personally never been harassed or told that I shouldn’t be doing pole (the most I’ve gotten is just surprise lol), and I think the perception may be slowly changing, but I’m still somewhat selective about who I tell that I’m doing pole fitness. Like, I haven’t told anyone at my workplace, just in case it would become gossip. As a person who prefers to dress more modestly, I appreciate this anime for not sexualizing it, and I like that the characters get more modest costumes. It gives me ideas for what I could wear as costumes for showcases 😊
This episode highlights the general problem surrounding this project; most people unfortunately associate pole dancing with strip clubs and similar sexual-related activities without even making an effort to explore or look into the sport, exercise and artistic forms of pole dancing :( Aside from the anime itself focusing on the artistic aspects, the restaurant exchange was nice to see :) If only more people were as open-minded... I really love the video integrations on the smartphones BTW; not something I see often in animation, at least with such high quality :)
It is true, though. When you think of dance, you would imagine street dance, hip hop dance, ballet, contemporary dance, samba, etc. But, you wouldn't think or expect pole dancing to be seen on tv or any dance competition. You would always think of them to be something shown on strip bars. I recently watched AGT who has a pole dancer but it was really hard not to think about the bad image that pole dancing has that you wouldn't expect an approach that makes the style to be appealing to an audience full of people with varying age and genders.
You know, Mio kind of reminds of Minami Kotori from Love Live. Her vibes kind of similar to Kotori maybe because she has a very soft and cute voice and a very gentle demeanor.
Now this demonstrates part of what intrigued me about this series in the first place. That it's going about what is a touchy subject matter with a kind of nuance. I mean as shown here when people hear the words "Pole Dancing" it tends to have a negative connotation with "Strip Club" in their heads. And the displays of Pole Dancing in an athletic or artistic form from what we've seen thus far, it's displaying them in a way that is more sensual than sexual. So with all that said I really do hope this series continues to do a good job in this light with this subject matter. Well that aside. With Mio the cosplayer in their ranks she'll probably also help solve problems with those stage costumes down the line.

サナ姫のポールダンスは最高にカワイイから憧れるのもわかる
ドラマCDとかだと多分ありがちなストーリーすぎで見なかったけど
アニメだからずっと見たくなるし！違和感なくかわいい３Dモデルとモーションもいい！
リリアちゃんのポジティブさいいなあ。元気もらえる☺️かわいい~~
ここでユカリ様では無くてサナ姫の動画見せたのは正解だったと思う。
ユカリ様は存在が圧倒的過ぎて逆にヤル気無くなるかも。
ポールダンスはえっちな踊りというイメージの概念ちゃんとあるんかい
海外で、あるよ。

ちゃんりなに刺激されたちゃんゆいｗ
3人目のメンバーは不思議ちゃんかな？ポールダンスへの勧誘から衣装が出てくるまでの流れはツッコミどころが多々あるけどテンポよくていいね。
4人目がどんな感じで加入するのかも楽しみだね☺️
waiting for the english subtitles! the girl with the two colored hair has such cute voice!!

リリアのダメだったら次にいってみようとする前向きさにヒナノはいつも力を貰ってきたんだろうな〜と感じるお話でした😌
新しいメンバーも捕まってあと一人ですね！次回が楽しみです！
うん、サナ姫はめっちゃ可愛いよね！！！！私もそう思う

ヒナノは「うん」と「うんうん」がめちゃかわいいな😃
*waiting impatiently for Eng subs*
Ok, I got like 80% from the context and my random knowledge of Japanese words and phrases xD
ポールダンスのイメージそれよな 5:05
そういうキャラなので〜
使っていきたくなってしまう
そのコス持ち歩いてるの！？！？
ミオの自然なかわいさがいいですね
表現したいものがあるミオのダンス、楽しみです！
毎度の事ながら、細かな仕草表情、スマホのムービーなど全てが素敵すぎます！！
そしてポールダンスをするために前向きに行動していく2人の行動力が凄い👏ポールダンスができるまであと1人という所と、ミオちゃんの裁縫スキルが高いのでミオちゃんが皆のポールダンス衣装も作るのかななんて想像も膨らみ続きがとても気になりました！
ポールダンス動画みてからの判断がはやい！（パン！
衣装どこから出したの！？
プリズムMOB
i LOVE THIS ANIME, thank you so much.
めっちゃええやん
そら アメリカのショーガールのイメージ強いから警戒されるわな。
リリアがダンスするのはよみたい～。
ちゃんゆい参戦ｗ
かまいたちモブは基本
ポールダンス、魔法少女、というワードでストリップ界隈がザワつくw
정규편성해라
ヒナノの喋り方がよそよそし過ぎてリリアと話す時も全然友達の距離感とは思えない😅
浮いてるとかいうレベルじゃない
ミオちゃんの声ナチュラルでかわいい！
ポールダンスのムービーは何回見てもかっこいいね
