| An episode dedicated to discovery: first of all you know the character of Hebimori and then that of Togano, then you get to Erika and her hidden side. Also this time the narration is unsettling because it introduces us to a character not as prominent as that of Hebimori who for the most part has passed on the sly in previous episodes. In addition to the beauty of the sets, this time I also appreciated the peculiarity of the light in the various moments of the narration, so different in the various contexts. Excellent characters and their reactions. The quality of the drawings and animations is always very high, I can't wait for the next episode. |

| We came off from last week with the most sweetest Akebi episode so far...and then we get treated to the most inspirational and heartwarming episode of the series yet...this series is PEAK SoL. New week, new faces, with the friends of the week, Hebimori and Togana. Our Hebimori loves guitar, but doesn't know how to play it, but with the push of a cute devil (aka Akebi), she makes a push to play the instrument of her desire. And with Togana, well she's practicing to ball, go get it girl! So guys, I got the memo, but in case that you still don't know after 7 weeks of watching this anime, umm...the animation of this show is TOP-NOTCH. And the scene that shooked me the most from this series so far is when Erika played the piano...I don't know if the animation director and the CloverWorks team secretly agreed to smoke some weird shit, but that secret session that didn't really happen resulted to the best set of animation frames put out to an anime. My mouth was fucking shut seeing the scene unfold, and that's not even the last highlight of this episode. When Oshizu played her guitar and sang to Akebi, all I can really think in my head is that "it is such a beautiful scene and I need to listen to the song in YouTube IMMEDIATELY. Yeah this episode left me wasted in the greatest way possible, another GREAT episode from CloverWorks and Akebi. Oh and there was even a ReoNa reference when Oshizu was reading a magazine earlier in the episode, I can go on and on but I had to stop this--- Screenshot counter for this episode: 25....it doesn't even matter if it's less than the previous weeks, this episode just left me stunned! |

| This show is like hillwalking... Just when you think you're scaling the final peak there's another one there for you. I doubted the studio would maintain the quality of the opening episodes let alone ramp it up like this. Can they seriously deliver another five episodes at this level!? |
| Quantum ille canis est in fenestra |
| I gave up after 1 day trying to learn to play the guitar.. so to see such resilience is quite impressive. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| Hebimori. She plays the guitar very well and also sings very nice. And she is also pretty. Very good chapter. |
| I feel like a band is forming. Hope not. |
| I am speechless and stunned...as this episode is aesthetically beyond the universe...way farther. |

| Quantum ille canis est in fenestra |
| This episode is actually pure fucking Kinographic. There are so few anime tackling the reality of talentless and hardworking beginners which aren't hidden prodigees or with rushed training montages as so many shonens do, especially here in realistic disciplines like music and sports it brought tears to my eyes to see these girls struggle to such basic things but they consider huge accomplishement as any beginner would when trying a new hobby or passion. As an aspiring artist and learning japanese I cannot relate more to this. (Ping Pong treat this theme as well) The whole had a really indie animated short vibe it could easily be feature at Animator Expo or Annecy, if we remove the artistic direction of anime (which we shouldn't) it would even be award worthy by mainstream audiences. Forehead girls truly makes the best girls i have to say. |
| Man that was so good Oshizu wrote a love song about her and Akebi fooling around together. Even admitting her love for her in the lyrics, singing "I love you" serval times! Awwwwwww the little lesbian lovebirds are so cute together,,,,YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES Akebi has added another wife to her growing lesbian harem =) Awesome epsiode  |

Pre_Yum said: A new day... a new character who gets introduced in the show who's gonna be friends with Akebi eventually. LOL. She's still so cheerful and amazed with anything new she sees, it's cute. This time, Shizu who loves music but like many others can't play the guitar very well. Also, gotta say Akebi's quite flexible. Well, we saw that in earlier episodes as well. Another thing I noticed was that one guitar practice scene was pretty impressive and accurate. Some things are relatable, to say the least, and everyone's trying their best in this anime towards something that they aim for. Good episode. Yes, and both of my uncles and one of my cousins also plays the guitar, so I can relate to what that Shizu girl was trying to do. In fact, if one of them saw this episode, they would really get a kick out of it. Amazing accuracy! And yes, it’s great to see everybody aiming for something and seeing them working on it. And that obviously gave that Shizu girl in the motivation to learn that song for Akebi. So yeah, very good episode, can’t wait to see what the next one will bring. |
| So a gyitar girl this time |

| Near perfect execution |
| I really loved this episode!!!! Especially the song Hebimori-san played!!!! That was awesome imo. |
| I'm really glad to see Hebimori, Oshizu to have a renewed passion for her guitar. She is quite adorable now! 👏👏👏 Good job Akebi! Your character is inspiring others! I really like her! More "pure" inspiration! Joel77 said: Especially the song Hebimori-san played!!!! It gradually became good while whe was singing, I wonder what's the title of her song and do you think it is available and being sold? 😍 |

| It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it, is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service. |

I was actually hoping to get an album of her singing the song she sang in this episode. 😅 |

| Perhaps better to ignore it but the dad's comment on Kizaki's hands being pretty was weird. Animation was already good but this episode really stood out in not only in that but also music wise (for example when Kizaki played the piano). |

| I like these two roomies Hebimori and Togano. They are so chill and kinda realistic. I like how they support and care about each other. Akebi is actually pretty annoying. Of course her actions helped Hebimori a lot, but still, she keeps invade to people's personal spaces. |

| I really liked this episode. Loved Mai's metaphor of trying to shoot a basketball too far away as a beginner, and instead choosing to start close to the net and working your way back. It was great seeing Oshizu slowly learn the guitar, as well as Akebi encouraging and supporting her with that boundless optimism. |
| best episode so far! |
 |
| my musician's soul forces me to say this is the best episode yet |
| I wanna learn something new! |
| In regards to music, I think Akebi should learn how to sing instead of playing an instrument. I have a feeling she would be very good at it, plus it would compliment her acting in the drama club the best. |
| I can't get over how beautiful this anime is! |
 |
| the animation in this episode is insane, especially at the piano scene, absolutely beautiful choreography and directing |
Goodnight, Punpun |
