All of their efforts paid off, and now are able to go to the event. Sad that Yaya and her band didn't qualify. Is Naru's mom really 17 years old?

Of course not. Naru is about 14 years old herself. If her mom were really 17, she'd have been 3 when Naru was born. It was meant as a joke I guess.

There's something novel about watching them perform yosakoi for the first time and they used the OP song too (it is a good song, very catchy).

Poor otou-san misunderstood his teenage daughter XD I suppose all of us guys will go through that stage if we ever have a daughter.

A bit disappointed they didn't show the band's performance but overall a good episode, glad Sally sensei didn't become a bi**h and kept refusing them.

Fantastic - so there's an official piano version of the OP which I love so much! Definitely going to learn it if I can get my hands on the sheet music.

Openining scene was hilarious XD
Ok, seriously who is Tomo Sekiya? Lol what's with the 3917 years old stuff?
Tami got an avg of 94, Yaya 92, Naru 81 and Hana 72.
Sally-chan-sensei finally gave in.
Nice performance to the girls at school
Feel bad for Yaya and the rest of the band though :(


Tomo Sekiya is Naru's mom, and the 17 was her "preferred" age, lol (obviously she's 39 for reals). Naru's dad was funny as heck. It's not like he was over-protective, but all the signs were pointing in a very twisted direction for him. I guess that's how it feels when a father is about to lose his daughter to puberty.

Ahhh Hana, Hana, Hana.... gives me heartburn every single episode with her expressions and her antics! Feel really sorry for her 72. She tried her best, it just wasn't enough.

I loved how they split their work up too. Tami with the Music, Hana with the Dance, Naru with the Logo. And the feels when Yaya's band missed the cut.... Awwwww...

Next episode can't come any sooner!

Naru's dad is starting to get suspicious. Haha!
Their dance was nice. Looks like they put a lot of effort in it, especially Naru.
Too bad Yaya's band didn't qualify.

I could tell things weren't going to go well with the band but it never occurred to me that Yaya may blame the others! Here comes the drama!

Cute episode, as usual. :3
Yaya~! D: LOL! She's so adorable, especially when she blushes~! :3

So, to participate in the event, every member of the Yosakoi club has to have an 80 average in the upcoming tests. And, everyone did well, except Hana, who got a 72. :( Sally didn't approve of them, but later on when she saw the girls performed, she approved~! Yay~! :3
That Yosakoi dancing was pretty cool too~! :3 Original stuff right? Hana made it herself, the dancing moves I mean. :3


And....it seems that....Yaya's band didn't qualify. :( What's going to happen to Yaya.... :(

About that "17 yo" mom, I wouldn't be surprised if her seiyuu was Inoue Kikuko (if they even bother to give her a voice), since that whole 17 years old thing is her running gag.

That's what I was thinking.

Also, I have to say I love all the Sally-sensei in this episode, since Megumi Toyoguchi's one of my favorite seiyuus! :)


About the forever 17, I think there are a couple of other seiyuus beside Inoue that has joined that club. I have a vague memory of Tamura Yukari and Horie Yui saying something similar.
But Inoue Kikuko is the ultimate mom, just watch Sabagebu. :)

Lots Toyoguchi Megumi is never wrong, I also like her voice. :D

As for that "17 years old", it is a usual joke used by seiyuu Kikuko Inoue, who is 17 years and 394 months old. (More precisely, 17y 394m 22d old, as of today.)

There is a calculator to tell you how old you are.
http://homepage3.nifty.com/yuyu/17-beginner.html
Enter your name at the first place,
the followings are your birth year (in 4 digits), month (number), date.
Put the OK button then you'll see you're currently "17 years and ???? days old" or "17 years ??? months and ?? days old."

The pace felt really strange, but the ending part was pretty good.
And I just realized the opening music is sung by the voice actors of the main characters.

Pretty great episode! It was nice to see some actual dancing even if they aren't that good yet! The beginning with Naru's dad was pretty comical as well...I can understand why he was confused!

Hana is as always, adorable. But all of them are growing on me! Although Hana and Tami are probably my favorites at this point. Now we just need Machi...

Lol... The conditions to get what they want were exactly like Love Live. This is turning out to be a Love Live turned into a Yosakoi with stronger Yuri undertones, well, except there's a lot more comedy involved in this.

Love the mother's joke... I thought she was actually 17... then I see on the left hand side 39 is crossed out, replaced by a red 17. >_<

That was really funny.

7/10 for this episode.
Isayama Hajime should be awarded The Manga with The Highest Inconsistencies of Characters' Appearances.
He keeps performing multiple plastic surgeries on those Shingeki No Kyojin characters in a SINGLE chapter.
Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga.
Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month.
Patiently awaiting SNK TV/movie/OVA anime-sequel.
The 2015 SNK live-action movie would probably suck.

That whole opening scene and the dad's misunderstandings were the funniest thing so far on this show.
Hana was actually cute in this episode and showed her vulnerable side, instead of just being loud.
And they even got to have their first show, although on a much smaller scale, just in case they couldn't make it to the actual first show in the department store.

And another adorable episode.

Naru's dad's concern over her change in behavior was hilarious, but he was great when Naru asked if he noticed any changes in her. He said exactly the right thing, and inspires Naru to use the different flowers as symbols of the Yosakoi club.

Hana, Naru, and Tami use their respective strengths - dance, drawing, and music - to bring the club's performance further along. The scene of the girls performing in the classroom was interesting because Naru appears not to have made to many glaring mistakes this time.

5/5

Episode extremely cute and funny. Nice narration from the beginning, I was dying with laughter at times.
Plot by: I am not all a bed of roses, topped off "maybe" too many idealizations, however pleasant! :)
Drawings and animations of a good standard, I hope in the future there are other times when you see the girls dancing yosakoi better, at least a little more.
Today we have seen very little, to truly appreciate the art of yosakoi.
