Nina, Momoka and Subaru practice tirelessly to level up as a band. Nina, determined to defeat Diamond Dust at all costs, searches for ways to increase their audience, but struggles to find a good method.

Just then, Tomo and Rupa, who had come to see their recent live performance, approach Nina.

Tomo's way to practice/record without bothering the neighbours is a soundproof cardboard box, that's so funny

The comparison with Nina and a bullring bull is too perfect, they only have one goal in mind and will try anything to reach it. Can't wait for the performances now that the band is finally complete

As I Thought with last episode, the song they played at the end, "What to raise" was incomplete and from what we've heard in this episode during their practice, it sounds so much better with the bass and the keyboard, now I really want to see them perform that song again.
I must say that I'm quite surprised to see the new members appearing this late into the story ( well technically they were already here but mostly background characters and not part of the band ) and I hope that they will not be left aside when it comes to character development and evolution but from what the anime has shown so far I do not worry about it. Also, the song made by Rupa and Tomo was released alongside the episode, "Mind playing Fractal", it's not bad but not my type of stuff. Tomo being a fan of Subaru's grand-mother is also a funny addition but may also be used to make progression in Subaru's character evolution.

I feel like the addition of the two new girls prefectly fits the group, one chaotic and one calm one, that's perfect. They seems to have found out a common goal (somewhat), we will see how they will manage to become more popular and, perhaps, overshadow Diamond Dust !? What I'm more excited however is a full new song with all 5 band people, the small snipet of remade music already sounded very great, so I cannot wait to see a full qualitative one. Excited for next week !
I like everything, ok

Well I'll eat some crow. Initially I had some serious issues with the CG, but it's completely grown on me. I can honestly say that if Hibike Euphonium and Ookami to Koushinryou weren't airing, this would be the best show this season.

Rupa and Tomo are great addition to the band. Their bass and synth performance really makes the band more complete. They are always in the background serving in the restaurant and finally they have their official introduction. It's great to see Nina finally aiming to be top band and now they need to align their goal together to get there.

@billybub Salute to you. Glad to hear that you are enjoying it. I have nothing but respect.

Yep another banger episode. The look on Nina's face when she got the full sound of the band behind her was amazing. The feeling transcended the screen for me. New girls are cool, very excited to hear some new music. These episodes are basically 5 minutes long, I am so excited to watch the show it just passes me by in an instant.

I think Momoka's role here really deserves more attention. As a former band member, she could be said to be no longer an amateur and more experienced than others.

And I observed what Subaru said, maybe there was some truth in it that Momoka was really serious about music or she thought it would be a waste.

Even so, I think Momoka is a true musician and I curious what next step will be.

This show keeps getting better and better.

I like that the number of followers they're aiming for are actually realistic - 10K to match indie Diamond Dust, 20K to beat current Diamond Dust. In Jellyfish, it's a little farfetched that they're aiming for 100K followers, and it leads to them having to grow really fast in a short amount of time. Not to mention that their famous musician is hiding her identity, so it's even more unbelievable that they're growing so fast.

This is the first CG anime I've watched, and I'm glad I got past the initial hesitation; I'm hooked on the animation. I always thought that 3D would remove the expressiveness of anime, but this retains all of it while adding new elements. I love the little details like their hair actually bouncing and moving with their head movements. I loved the mini photoshoot scene with Subaru doing the cute poses (Subaru still best girl).

The black Gibson SG bass is just perfection, such an iconic look.

Lastly, just a random thought: I didn't really notice until this episode, but these girls should really be using earplugs. Just seeing the half stack amps and knowing how loud those things get (not to mention the actual fkin drums lol) made me wince, even though we've seen them practice loads of times. Maybe it's just the SG in this episode really made me pay attention to the equipment.

Lastly lastly, I love the little detail of Rupa playing the little slide note in time with the BGM. This show is so awesome.

After 6 episodes I still can't sympathize with Nina, she's unbearable, and stop trying to impose your personal problems on others. It has been a long time since a protagonist in an anime I was so lazy, this chapter saves it the two new members. If Nina's attitude continues like this, sadly I will have to lower my personal rating for this anime and a lot

@SaDaijin18 I usually watch the new episode of Girls Band Cry 2-3 times in a week. I don't think it's enough to watch it just once. I also did this at least on the Hibike! Euphonium S3 and Konosuba S3 👀

@stevejawbs

The CGI graphics is rather meh, overall. I was initially impressed, but nah, this isnt Sanzigen or Studio Orange level of CGI quality. Those two are the gold standards in CGI anime animation.

They whittle the 3D down to 2D, you can still tell its 3D, but the motion capture is so good as well. Go check out D4DJ, and myGo! from 2023. Even Sanzigen's Bang Dream S2 from 2018 still blows this out of the water.

As for Studio Orange, go check out Trigun Stampede.

About this episode...

Great! The story is coming together now!
Very much enjoyable.

Kudos to NakayubiSubs, the episodes may drop 6-8 hours later, but the translations are much better than the MTLs. Helps to make the experience a good one, honestly!

Apart from the brilliantly animated insert, the graphics and movement animations and mouth animations are quite janky and jarring, especially Rupa's, they dont seem to match what she's saying at times. Its going downhill, you can notice the decline in quality since episodes 2 or 3, and its blatantly obvious now.

Rupa's 3D clothing textures are horrible! Horrible! Is this some 90s animation? You feel like you're watching some 486 level computer graphics made in 1994 FFS!

Two girls who also want to aim for the Budokan, it looks like they found some gold with Nina's group.

On the other end, their small concert...was a rather embarrassing effort with both positive and negative comments within their small following, despite being an offshoot of Diamond Dust. And on the cusp of trying to earn followers to beat Momoka's old group, both Tomo Ebizuka and Rupa overhearing both Nina and Subaru's conversation enough to scout them into their band, both groups are in the same realm of trying to make it big. Subaru poaching Momoka to give both Tomo and Rupa a try, and for all intents and purposes, this only strengthens Nina's resolve to get their band noticed.

It's a long shot, but it's possible.

Ah, so we finally we an explanation for why the cooking staff at the restaurant had been animated differently than the rest of the people there for those viewers who hadn't watched the opening or ending sequence nor the promotional material for the series. It's like the "spot the main character" kind of deal with an Ex-Arm flavor to it.

Regardless, these people are aiming big, Tomo having the moost personality out of the two though we'll probably find more about their past in the coming episodes. For now they sound like they have potential but let's see if Momoka is on the same boat. Also, Nina can be pretty annoying but I get her intentions, maybe not much how pushy she can be.

@Ryushindai I think that's more to have a better recording and avoid echo, that's what acoustic foam is normally for not soundproofing

I suspect she’ll get better, we still haven’t had an episode truly dedicated to her and I have a feeling she’ll be a lot more sympathetic/tolerable after whatever arc she’ll go through.

Wow, so those two cooks really are fellow musicians, and they have ambitions of going pro as a duo called Beni-Shouga. They have a surprisingly big following too. 22,738? That's approximately 2,738 more followers than Daimond Dust has, and Diamond Dust is supposed to be the hottest newcomer in mainstream rock at the moment.

Turns out, Beni-Shouga actually succeeded in getting the attention of some record labels. Problem was, all of the labels wanted them to change their sound in order to become mainstream friendly, and like Momoka, they didn't like the idea of that. If Beni-Shouga went through with signing a record deal though, they wouldn't have been in the position to join Nina and company in the first place, so it's probably for the best.

That group photo though... looks like Beni-Shouga used to be a 4-piece band. Did they get into some kind of disagreement over whether or not to accept any of the record label offers? If so, then that might explain the other two girls in the photo with stickers censoring their faces.

I don't think that cardboard box with the acoustic foam is quite enough for Tomo to use but that's a cute affordable makeshift. Sometimes people build a whole box or cubicle to stand in.

That's a cute gecko but a girl keeping one as pet, strange taste. Rupa and Tomo joins the band. Tomo's so cute and tiny. Gotta have that one characters who's a fan of your famous relative. Their performance together looked really well, again great animation there. Nina and Momoka keep butting heads though. I expect they might have a short fallout of sorts at some point before finally coming to terms with each other. I can definitely see where they are both coming from. Nina who just got the taste of something she loves and raring to go while Momoka already past that stage and got a taste of reality being somewhat passive and trying to be more realistic.

Diamond Dust only has 20k followers? Seems kinda low? I thought they were way bigger.

At the same time 500 followers after 1 club performance seems pretty high, though I guess Momoka pushed it and a lot of old fans would jump ship.

Though Subaru could probably push the follower count by her cuteness alone. She knows how to act popular after all.

Momoka really seems way older than 20 with her maturity, you could think she has been a pro in this business for 10 years

Always surprised when they sneak 2d animation in, at this point its always the same kind of jumpscare CGI gives me in 2d anime

Was about time the other members join, half the cour is done after all and the trio dynamic was getting a bit stale, atleast for Momoka and Nina arguing

PS: dont understand the Nina hate, without her beeing a gremlin this show would be boring, generic band struggle stuff.

Almost half way through now, and I am very ashamed to admit it took me basically a week to go from episode 5 to 6 but it is what it is lol. And we met the last two band members in this episode, Rupa on bass guitar and Tomo on keys, both seem like nice additions so far, funny to think they’ve been that close to the band the whole time too since they’ve been working that restaurant they frequent lol. It was pretty cool hearing the whole band come together, it may be a bit bullshit because this is the first time they’ve played together and they sound that good, but it was still a great moment, I look forward to whatever barn burner they play at the upcoming festival.

And of course there’s more beef with Momoka and Nina again, and it isn’t mainly on Nina this time, Momoka is a very stubborn girl that’s for sure, but Subaru has recognized this and is trying to take the slow approach, let’s just hope it works out. And we also learned of the actual goal of the show this episode, or at least that goes for everyone besides Momoka, being making it to the Budokan, this takes me back to a favorite show of mine titled “If My Favorite Pop Idol Made It To The Budokan, I Would Die”, it’s completely deserving a rewatch but for now I will see if these girls can make it there. And lastly, I liked the school idol shtick they were going for as a joke where they were actually drawn 2D lol, I still wish the show could look like that but I am enjoying what we got.

I know there's so much baggage there, but Nina girl you gotta drop the Diamond Dust thing 😭 do you want to be your own band or just compared to them forever? I second the people saying it's good that she's a complete maniac. If you don't like her, you'd hate Axl Rose

Idk how I never noticed the coffeeshop girls were the same as the last two band members in the theme song lol, I think Clark Kent would've tricked my ass with some glasses

Everyone but Momoka finally has a goal. She's hiding it, but her self esteem is even lower than Nina's if all she wants to do is a bunch of live shows and mess around writing music.

Masterful writing.

Now that the whole gang is finally formed, I wonder in how the chemistry between the girls will flow.

@Romax24245 The implications that Tomo and Rupa also used to be in a bigger band might be what drew them closer to Nina, Subaru and Momoka. Maybe they feel guilty over parting ways with their former bandmates.

It could also be a photo of friends with similar dreams who ended up straying from their path? I'm just imagining stuff, but I love all the details they're throwing at us.
