| The audtions are less than a week away, and time passes so fast that it's intense, the same goes for everyone else working hard to present the best version of themselves. Everyone is working to their best, except Akine, who thinks otherwise, and the other 1st Years compliment her for her learning speed. But when it came time to put everything together, as with Carmen, they could not catch up, much less being stared by Tachibana. And her stuck-up attitude is what pisses Akine off for a face-off between both girls, that the 2nd Violin section leader Yonezawa put to a stop before things could get worse, The promise with Aono and Haru left unaccomplished and raced off leaving Akine behind, she wants to catch up to them, and that includes Tachibana as well. Late into the night, and Tachibana is still practicing for Yonezawa to notice her. Tachibana thought that she's in for some trouble with Akine that Yonezawa noticed, and the latter questions her and her past, whom she went with Harada before. But the outburst that Tachibana can't get along with Akine, it all amounts to her shutting down the sound of others and only listening to hers. If only she improved on this point, that the section can be more cohesive. But Tachibana herself is at fault for putting too much on her shoulders because of her promise to Harada to play the 1st Violin. The most important thing is: not everyone runs at the same speed, and Tachibana has ran the race too fast for others to catch up, so she oughta slow down. Sure enough, things between Tachibana and Akine get more awkward, but at least with the small step that the latter equests the former for help, and the feud has since calmed down. All Akine needs now is to combine her sound with everyone else's expression, a world outside of the music score. And her friendship with Tachibana, grows a tad bit. |

| Again, it was an okay episode, still very surface level in terms of its themes, and very predictable. Tachibana's one of those characters with a rough exterior, but is just a person who wants to push others to their full potential. Found it hilarious when Akine said "Why don't we take this chance to say how we really feel about each other" to Tachibana, and upon the first thing Tachibana said, Akine got completely flabbergasted. This show can be so dumb sometimes. I suppose the first half will end with the audition, so another build up episode next week, and then we'll get the big event. |
| 10/10 episode. Probably my favourite so far. It’s really nice to get a ricchan focused episode. Just like last week where we thought the senpai were assholes, this week features a big misunderstanding as well. Tachibana is actually a really nice girl who just wants to get better and help others get better, but struggles making those connections. Just goes to show, you never really know someone without talking to them. A lot of times we have preconceived notions about people who we’ve never even sat down to speak with. Props to Akane for being mature enough to go over and ask for help, kicking off a new friendship. |

| What a delight to see Akine and Tachibana make up |

| Tsundere X Tsundere interactions can be painful to watch sometimes, but this one was entertaining and wholesome. Again I wanted to say that it's refreshing to watch such a slow-paced show these days, which is why I am loving Ao no Orchestra so far. |
| I really like how Akine can listen to others criticism, accept her weakness and work to improve on them. Sounds easy but it's really hard to do, respect to anyone capable of doing that. Btw the characters have started to look funny at times and funnily enough the cgi designs look more consistent. |
 |
| I like Akine I just dont find it believable she's at the level she's at and striving for at that point. Also wish Aono was in the episode hes missed a few so far lol. |
