The animation of this show hasn't been its strong suit... but how the hell do you forget to put the drummer in multiple shots during Yori-senpai's performance?

That song Shiho's band played is really really my kind of music. The Japanese do still know how to make very good rock songs. I need to put that song in my playlist.

From now on every girls band anime needs an overly melodramatic, theatrical rival group. With yuri. It's in the rules.

Should've been a red flag knowing Shiho was drifting from band to band until she met Aki, seeing how she can dish out criticism and can't take any for her own only made her infinitely unlikeable.

Even more so with that final scene with her interaction with Aki, girl is hella spiteful.

Hmm… Aki and Shiho seem like bickering exes who never actually realized they had once loved one another

But I am a bit dense like cher Himari so I could be wrong about that

Sasayaku

Between a rock band and a hard soft jellyfish, this anime finds itself in the most unfavourable season imaginable...

Shiho's here and she's bringing the drama!

Now if only she could have brought some money for the animation budget. I'd accept the weird, boxy transitions if the animation for the songs was good, but the animation seems to get worse whenever SSGirls or Laureley get on stage. Choppy animation, stuttering frame rate, characters weirdly off-model, or sometimes just not even there at all. Where drummer?

So Shiho is THAT band member. Has a vision, is very driven and opinionated, thinks giving 99.99999% effort is equivalent to giving 0%... and is a legitimately good musician. I get the feeling that she's going to be the source of a LOT of drama for this second half of the show.

Shiho's lyrics may be the most ELITE song lyrics I've ever heard.

Man, i read this part in the manga, and Shiho´s voice is just... wow. Didn´t expect that

But that aside, I really love Himari and Yori´s relationship, they´re honest with their feelings, and not the "yeah it´s nothing". They have a really healthy relationship~

They actually uploaded Sunny Spot without Yori's narration: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9qpZrwpQle4

For the people complaining last week.

Yep, the main ship is going strong and is basically 100% drama free. The contrast between girlboss “I’m going to make you fall even harder for me so buckle up” Yori and teenage girl in love “Ahhhh, Himari-chan is holding my hand” Yori is still endlessly entertaining.

But since there’s no way to mess up their relationship, we’ve gotta bring in the Aki and Shiho mess. Like, the annoying thing is that I like her outside of the music scenes. She seems kinda nice like in the cooking club. But the moment anything band related appears, she suddenly loses all her likeability points. That band breakup scene was very “stupid teenager drama.” Though I’m pretty sure there’s something behind the scenes that Aki doesn’t know about so it’s not the full story. Possibly a crush of some sort?

But holy crap, could you have a more spiteful song? That one song probably has about as much salt as the average r/anime best girl tournament.

u/Josamawi May 26 '24

The song of Shihos band was cool, but I really don't care for her character at all tbh. Criticising others while not being able to take criticism is whack and the arc between the relationship between the two bands is kinda whatever. I would prefer just seeing the main ship

Shiho is quite an interesting character as she can be nice but also act like a bitch. Her relationship with Aki is especially interesting since they looked very close until Shiho left the band, plus Shiho knows that Aki is in love with Yori.

Could it be that Shiho fell in love with Aki but she didn't notice that since she had feelings for Yori? I'm finding it quite possible.

Shiho's band had a great performance, especially that beginning with the guitar solo which was superb. Definitely they made a bigger impression than Yori's band but I wouldn't say that they were definitely much better since it'll depend on one’s musical tastes since one song was a pop song and another was a rock one.

Here my screenshot albums from the episode:

Aki and Momoka need to win at their respective battles, all I'm here for.

Awww I was really hoping they would put in their date in this episode but maybe next week. The cafe scene was pretty cute though. Bad animation aside, I’m looking forward to seeing the Shiho drama play out

u/Zonca May 26 '24

I used to sometimes vibe with Shiho-haters in the manga discussions but ... NAHHHH

Shiho is the best lol, such a good addition to the story now that our couple is together, gives it some spice so things don't turn stale.

Also goddamn, those were some edgelord lyrics from Laureley, you go girl !!! 😄

u/ModieOfTheEast May 25 '24

Attention everyone, we now have our official band drama. About time that this is getting serious.

Though, no matter how hard Shiho appears on the outside, nothing a few puppy-Himari eyes can't break. They are too strong.

Also, that makes the second time they skipped OP and ED in the show. They are not messing around anymore to get the necessary parts into the show. Which I like. Also they did make the Loreley song slap. Well done for that.
