Oh I wasn't expecting a fight this chapter. Then again, the setting is different from the modern ages so...

The music was okay, nothing too special. And of course, they got naked again (:

It was an average episode.

Shinsengumi brainwashed town folks with their music.

Ryouma and his bands saved the town folks with their rock music.

Nice we get to hear Okita's (Ono Kensho) Feedback :) Yeah I definitely liked his song better than Katsura's. Seems like Okita is coughing up blood though? :( Also didn't expect song fighting...or laser throwing things.

lol I like this anime's logic. Pull out random guitars and drums out of your pocket. And all the random technology (metal detectors...) in this "historical" show. LOL

Nevertheless, fun episode as usual.

Are they purposely making all of Heaven's music boring?

The songs lately have really lacked bass and impact, I'm slightly disappointed.
Besides that, they really know how to use 3d to the max without it interfering with the action, I'm surprised this isn't a mecha.
All up,
Songs are good but lack the intensity and..... pretty much the rock attribute in all the performances after ep 2,
And the animation is pretty much perfect in most areas
A little of my hype has gone but I still like this show a lot.
Powered by yuri.
Needless to say, I finish all anime I start, no matter my initial opinion, no matter how bad it gets, I WILL FINISH IT!

Again, more songs! Woot :3 I did enjoy both of them ... lol at Souji's dance XD Katsura got his Peace Soul too ... I wonder what that Ii guy is up to? It seems like he's gonna be putting on a concert next episode :O
Pretty funny how their instruments just kind of appear. I mean we could see them turning into colour and disappearing (bad description lol) when Shinsaku and Ryoma got thrown against the wall so I guess they're able to materialize them or something? O_o

Katsura has a Peace Soul finally and Souji is actually sick? Interesting.

Don't know why I find this show as entertaining as I do. It's probably only because the music is actually good.

Every time I see the Shogun on screen, I cringe a little, simply because he looks exactly like a girl. Honestly, when I first saw him, I thought he was a girl! -_-

Anyway, this episode was pretty meh.

Only episode so far that I didn't really laughed out loud or what-so-ever. But I /still/ did laugh, especially when they started using those dark matters and sabers and turned into some Mermaid Melody with song battle stuff.

So you mean they actually really can bring out their guitars whenever they please? That part where we see them disappearing? I thought it was like just some joke where they get their guitars. Turns out they're actually magical.

This episode basically made me think: "Oh wait, we really have superpowers now?"

I was so excited for Okita's song. I'm glad there wasn't any autotune, but song was quite boring. Probably better if it had more guitars/more rock-ish. Sensei's singing voice doesn't match, but meh.

The thing about Bakumatsu Rock though is that even though they show poor try-hard drama, it doesn't really matter, because we don't really take every shit seriously. That "I'll sacrifice myself" was just funny.

.... And I just hope this Souji Okita won't... yeah. But Kondo ;;

To be honest, I don't even remember how the first two peace souls appeared.
Never mind. The music is really great. Even the concept of the show, when I
really think about is not bad... If it had only been a show a bit more serious,
I would've totally fallen in love with it. This way... I don't know.. I'm going to
give it one more try.. I'll probably finish it... Who knows? Might get better :)

Those powers of Okita, wow, that was.. weird?

Edit: I always forgot to mention this, but did they only use CGI for the main trio but not the Shinsengumi? I don't think I've spotted them using CGI on the Shinsengumi.
