Another episode another banger, we also got a new ED this ep with some highly energetic chorus, wonderful.

This whole ep feels more lively than usual with the band members going on their first outing together in search of an outdoor backdrop for their first-ever formal band members group picture. And of course considering that they are cute girls in a CGDCT show, of course they have to do the Kirara Jump. Nijika is right about how jumping brings out each individual's personality. I can just about taste Bocchi's apprehension. Not only did she come here expecting to be punished for now having her lyrics done already, but she's forced to publicly take pictures involving an extremely stamina-draining action (jumping) that may or may not ruin their band's chance at stardom.

Of course, none is as dreadful as the thought of Bocchi creating an IG account for the world to see, lmao I love how she want absolutely ballistic and glitched out of existence with an ear-piercing banshee cry there! Ahhh Bocchi is adorable. It's pretty insane that if left to her advice, she could imitate completely different personalities in quick succession, just like when she's at home, though that does make it seem like she was possessed to her family's eyes lol.

The most precious moment is this rare one-to-one talk between Bocchi and Ryo. It's very sweet of Ryo to recall her experience of her previous band and advising Bocchi to adhere to her originality and refrain from going the mainstream way. That's why she's the senpai.

Nice ep, i liked how they talked about being yourself and not having to fit in with what's popular.

Also that was scene where the family watches Bocchi act all weird to find her lyrics got me laughing

Rewatching with italian dub, i confirm some of the playground photos were honestly better than the jumping one, forgot it was Ryo of all people lampshading "everyone jumps in Anime openings" and "drummers look like fools in band pictures when everyone else can carry on the respective instruments". Yeah, i remember Live - I Alone from 1994 and it was a weird music video, Beavis and Butthead can understand.

It was mostly about writing lyrics, which lowk got me thinking about how a lot of my favorite songs came to fruition, like how Man Overboard by blink-182 was about their first drummer, Scott Raynor, who they kicked out for alcohol abuse, and Adam's Song, (I listen to a lot of blink-182) was partially inspired by bassist Mark Hoppus reading a kid's suicide note in a magazine. Anyways, good episode, got me thinking, so 5 stars.

This was the funniest episode so far, between Bocchi yelling and dancing in her room, her literally crashing out over the suggestion of an Instagram account, or her looking dead-eyed in the group pictures.
