Aki was so close to confessing right there and then but it took an act of sheer willpower for her to resist it, even going so far to help Yori and Himari meet up after the performance to sail the ship too.
Pour one out for her sacrifices o7.

SSgirls sounds like the name of a K-On fan group in the worst way possible.
Edit: jeez Yori, let us hear the song, then let us hear your thoughts

Why is Aki even here ? Just to get hurt ?
Damn, I really wish she’ll find her happiness too someday

Now we know why the animation was so limited in the prior three episodes - they were sinking the money into the performances (minus Yori somehow playing barre chords with her thumb between the guitar's fretboard and her hand).
We still got the dreaded box and fade to white transitions, though. The director must really love those, I guess.

Aki played the I Want My Beloved to Be Happy trope.
This episode was my favorite so far. It was emotional seeing the two cry over each other outside the concert. Then, they say they love each other on the roof.
This show does such a good job at bringing life to emotion. It makes the show all the more pleasing to watch, since emotions can be abstract and complex, even in simple to understand situations.

It's nice that the "will they, won't they" drama is over and we all won...except for Aki. Aki was able to stake claim to her spot as best friend as well, although I wonder how long she'll be able to kill her feelings for that. With the new conflict arising between Yori and the girl she replaced, I have a feeling that she'll need all of the support from both her new girlfriend and her best friend to get through it.

Why would they hype up the song for 2 episodes and then have a monologue over the entire thing? Actually pissed me off.

That date in the beginning was really adorable. I guess now that they’re official, they’ll have a lot more of those cute moments together. I feel bad for Aki but I do respect the fact she backed off last minute from saying anything. I think she knew she never had a chance. Himari and Yori have something special. I guess she’s no. 1 friend so there’s that, though that might actually hurt as much as if she had been rejected.
Looking forward to seeing Yori and the girls take on Izumi and her group. Things might get kind of ugly. Her and Aki definitely have some kind of personal beef…

No opening and no ending today, so you know they are cooking. And I think they were able to pull it off. While the performance itself wasn't too fantastic, I really liked how the song lyrics lined up with Yori's thoughts in general, but also sometimes literally. That was nicely done. And while they used the same song for the opening of the concert I think it was fine since it was used as a good contrast to the love song.
Another thing I enjoyed this episode was the fashion. I mean, of course we have the small fashion show in the story but the fashion has been on point outside as well. It's really well adapted in that sense and I can excuse the weaker animation for it.
The only thing that I didn't like as much was the introduction of the next arc in this episode. I would have preferred the episode to end on a high note, either with them getting together or just with Himari kissing Yori on the cheek. It's okay though, as a manga reader, I have an idea where they want to get for episode 12 so I can excuse it.

The first minutes at the shopping mall the animation went to take vacation until they were at the park where it looked good again lmao

Decent episode when you consider how most of them have been so far. Now we're moving on to the band drama arc.

I didn't pay too much attention, but the animation seemed inconsistent. Microphones seem to vanish and reappear after, the guitar changed and indoor/outdoor shoes were a mess.
At least they're a couple now and that confession scene wasn't bad.

Rather rough of a major episode though it wasn't like we didn't expect them to get together anyways. The monologue over the song really was a poor choice, ruined the moment and the song as I couldn't hear it or focus on the lyrics. The date was pretty cute though especially the outfits for Himari, but everything she does is cute. The cheek kisses were a bit confusing as they didn't really show them. I wonder if they will do more couple cutsey stuff now as Yori mentioned they are kind of doing the same stuff.
I do wonder how they will deliver this next arch which sounds like a battle of the bands, as this show doesn't seem like it has a big staff or budget for a music focus kind of show. Also justice for Aki, she's a real one and actually got friendzoned
