Tamon’s B-Side Season 1 Episode 3: Unmasking the Idols Behind the Mic
If you’ve been following Tamon’s B-Side (or its Japanese title Tamon-kun Ima Docchi?—“Which Tamon Is It Now?”), you know the drill: Utage Kinoshita, a die-hard fan of idol group F/ACE’s charismatic leader Tamon Fukuhara, stumbles into cleaning his apartment… only to discover his off-stage self is a gloomy, messy introvert. Episode 3 cranks up the chaos by throwing another idol into the mix, and let’s just say the “B-side” here isn’t just Tamon’s anymore.
First off, let’s get the basics straight (thanks to some quick digging): this Winter 2026 anime (yep, it’s brand new) comes from Asahi Production, the studio behind quirky gems like My Next Life as a Villainess. Each 23-minute episode drops Sundays at 1 AM JST, which means us international fans are probably binging it over coffee the next morning. And if you’re wondering about the vibe? Fans on MyAnimeList are calling it a “silly shojo romcom” with “humor that sticks”—and they’re not wrong.
Episode 3 kicks off with Utage running errands, only to bump into Ouri, F/ACE’s “princely” second member. On stage, Ouri’s the kind of guy who makes fans squeal with his soft smiles and gentle waves. Off stage? He’s a hotheaded firecracker who storms into Tamon’s apartment and starts wrecking the place like a toddler throwing a tantrum. Cue Utage hiding in the closet, panicking as she watches her two idols bicker like an old married couple. The best part? Tamon’s apartment is still covered in mushrooms from his previous neglect (yes, mushrooms—this guy can’t even keep a plant alive), so the chaos feels extra absurd.
What makes this episode work is how it leans into the show’s core joke: idols are people too, and their “on-stage” personas are just that—performances. Tamon’s gloomy, Ouri’s a hothead, and Utage? She’s caught in the middle, trying to keep both their secrets while still geeking out over their dance moves. Fans are loving this contrast: one MyAnimeList user laughed, “The line about Tamon’s dancing making girls ‘imaginarily pregnant’? I spit out my tea.” Another noted, “I don’t usually watch idol shows, but this one’s got heart—and mushrooms. Can’t beat that.”
Let’s talk about the voice acting, because that’s been a hot topic. Saori Hayami (you know her as Yukino from Oregairu or Yor from Spy x Family) voices Utage, and some fans were skeptical at first. “She’s great as the reserved type,” one commenter said, “but can she pull off a hyper fan girl?” By Episode 3, though, most are coming around: “Hayami kicked it up a notch—her panicking when Ouri showed up? Perfectly over-the-top.” Others even joked, “If she can make me care about a mushroom-infested apartment, she’s doing something right.”
The humor here is light but sharp. When Utage accidentally calls Ouri by his stage name mid-argument, the room goes silent—you can practically feel her soul leaving her body. And Tamon’s deadpan response (“Can you not?”) had me cackling. It’s the kind of silly, relatable moment that makes shojo romcoms so addictive. As one fan put it, “This is as silly as a Christmas movie… and I’m here for every minute.”
But it’s not all jokes. Episode 3 hints at deeper layers: Ouri’s anger stems from feeling overshadowed by Tamon’s popularity, and Tamon’s gloom might be more than just laziness. Utage’s role isn’t just to clean—it’s to help these two see that their real selves are worth loving, too. That balance of humor and heart is why fans are sticking around. “I like the main character and the humor so far,” one viewer wrote. “It remains to be seen if the idol worship will get old, but for now? I’m hooked.”
If you’re into shows that don’t take themselves too seriously but still have heart, Tamon’s B-Side Episode 3 is a must-watch. It’s got idols, mushrooms, and a fan girl who’s just trying to keep it all together. As one fan summed it up: “God, this is silly. But I want more.” Same, friend. Same.
So grab your snacks, ignore the mushrooms in your own apartment (we’ve all been there), and dive in. Just don’t be surprised if you find yourself geeking out over a gloomy idol’s dance moves later. No judgment—we’ve all got our B-sides too.
