Funny episode for the most part, but there's too much moe fanservice. Whatever, still pretty good I guess. Liked how Yui had everyone keep turning back to see Ritsu, "The Who", and Ritsu and Mio being late to class, lol.

Thanks, person who gave me this on another site a long time ago, lol.

I really liked this episode since it was a little more serious and was focused on Ritsu, one of my favs. 5/5 for me.

I like the episode, it was not the best one yet or anything though. I did find it entertaining as usual and that is all the matters. I just hope we actually get to hear the song they are working on! I want to see them actually perform again hehe.

O'well it is a show I can relax and not think too hard... can't complain about something like that I guess.

Yui made me LOL at the part when she asked if Ricchan is lonely by any chance being at the back all of the time. And her idea is "Communication" .. like..."Jakajakajanjanjakajan JAKAJAN!!!* (*looks at Ricchan)" then all of them did it together..

LMAO.. really.. i was teary eyed laughing at that part.. xDDD

ohh~ and Mugi-chan made a new song ne~? not yet finished though.. >.< Mio-chan's helping her with the lyrics.. :3

I just wondered, if you figured out, if this new person in the ending song is a new person or just Mio with a new hairstyle; do you?? >.<

Despite this is Ritsu episode, i like Yui more in this episode. Some of her stupidity is always managed to make me laugh

Overall, an ok episode. Maybe because i'm sleepy. I didn't find this episode too interesting.

Yui's stupidity has now infected Mugi, Azu-nyan, and Mio D:
They all think that .. Turtle.. Is... Cute.. >.>

Talking keyboard was.......... Wat?

Did I simply miss the statue during the first two episodes.. Or did they realize now that they forgot him?

Anyway, I'm guessing we'll get to hear 'Honey Sweet Tea Time' in one of the coming episodes. (I mean.. They wouldn't come up with a song that we won't even get to hear, right? >.>)
Protip: I don't really check the forums anymore, so if you want something, take it on my profile.

A bit boring until 17 or 18 minutes, but the last scenes of the episode were quite good. I kinda liked the morals of it.

I'm really looking forward to the new song. Mugi's singing is probably my favorite, with Nodoka being a close second (yes I'm serious).

Well dang, haters gonna hate! I really love this season, and I thought that this episode was really enjoyable, too.The whole 'band communication' thing Yui was doing made me crack up. I love The Who, and yeah, that drummer is an interesting fellow.

Most definitely looking forward to Mugi solo-singing、and pretty much anything else this show has to offer. It's a fun watch.

Yeah exactly my point but even though it's fun to watch would it not be more fun with some more music in it....I am sure they can balance it out.....it's just they are not making the effort.....why do I have the feeling they are doing all this more towards what made this series sell more so they can sell this more.... I am sure there was some sort of poll that asked what you liked best about this product (something like that).

Someone should add links to them around here.....I don't know anything about them nor where to get them....might consider listening to them....I do want some of their top songs though to see how good they are.....

Yeah what about the drummer in Guns'N'Roses or Metallica.....heck U2 beats them all anyways......I don't think anything other than Metallica can beat = to U2.

Loved this episode. I love all the band members, and it was nice to see Ritsu be the center of attention for the episode. And stoked that Mugi started up a new tune! Can't wait to hear it!

Aside from the cool Moony refs, there was another legendary drummer reference in this episode; wonder if anyone picked it up?

Cozy Powell! My jaw dropped when I saw this mention, though I missed in what context his name was used. I was exposed to his great drumming while he was a member of The Jeff Beck Group when "Rough and Ready" came out. Really a talented guy, and played with all kinds of bands through the years.

Here's his wiki link in the unlikely event you're bored enough to read it LOL

Entertaining episode too!

I can't help but genuinely like this season more than the last one. There's just about the 2nd season so far that feels like it's playing straight and doesn't try to be too gimmicky with the "moe" concept. It's still there in K-ON, but there's a subtley to it, and I like that. It doesn't feel too silly and cute. I mean it felt to me people were getting into K-ON initially for odd reasons like how much of the silly quirks only appealed to the fandom so that they can upload an animated gif file or an anime-ish facial expression on to the forums.

I strangely liked the whole Ritsu communicating through he notes on the keyboard and Yui getting everyone to notice Ritsu by getting everyone to look at her from behind. And minus the whole "Gitah" joke, I kinda liked how Ritsu got frusturated with learning how to play the guitar, and then when remembered how exciting it is to play the drums. Now if only K-ON can stay that way, instead of screwing me over with the mood of the season half-way through, like last time.

I loved this episode. I could relate to Ritsu and her love of the drums, as a percussionist. Seeing her drumming on her books was great, because I used to do the same thing. Can't wait to hear the new song!

Hey not bad at all.....I could get to like this around the farm work.....I think that one of the songs comes from CSI Miami? I like that show anyways it's nice to look around at IRL music groups to link them to characters of K-ON like Ritsu in this episode to find out more about their tastes....thanks again.

You all do know that episodes 2 and 3 were fillers? They never existed in the manga.

Epi. 4 does have the girls going on a senior trip in the manga.
What if the Hokey Pokey is what it is all about?
