It was okay I suppose. The confidence in Kasumi is growing as she makes promises.

Felt like a calm before the storm so I expect her and the others to perform more again. Jun and Sana are adorable characters imo, hope they make more cameos.

Saya-centric outing this time. Mostly adorable too. She's got a wonderful family. Drama incoming at the end though as it looks like Saya's past is coming back to haunt her. Poppin' Party? Darn, I wanted their name to be BanG Dream! XD

Such a sweet and adorable episode. <3

I love Saya, she's probably my favorite out of all the members, Of course, I love the others too. XD

It's funny how Kasumi was put in charge of the planning committee, it's even funnier how Saya understands what Kasumi says.
Loved the little conversation between Saya and Arisa, especially when Saya said she's only doing what she wants.

Saya with her hair down is absolute win. <3
The sleepover and balcony promise between Saya and Kasumi was really sweet. It was also nice to see her name on the poster.

Poppin Party, we finally got our name. :D Arisa can be so Tsun at times. XD
Looks like something happened to Saya's old band, let's hope she can overcome it.

They have Yes! BanG_Dream! as their first single.

Anyway Poppin' Party now is born. I'm expecting them to sing their single soon either Yes! BanG_Dream!, STAR BEAT: Hoshi no Kodou or Hashiri Hajimeta Bakari no Kimi ni. Poppin' Shuffle is good too.

As for this episode a hair down Saya is the best Saya.

Episode focusing on Saya.

Seems she has some issue with her past.

We see that she was in a previous band and doesn't want to really take part in this newer one.

Hmm, a Saaya episode, not bad. And also, not quite the band name that I expected, lol.

A bit down that the band name isn't the title series itself, but Popping Party isn't bad.

I can't help but smile in this episode.

All that's left is Saya to complete the group.

Seems like next ep we get Saya and Kasumi likely arguing and getting everything off their chests in the process. Wondering what happened with Saya and her previous band, looks like we'll find out next week.

I think the song they will perform on the festival would be Hashiri Hajimeta Bakari no Kimi Ni because Saya suggested Kasumi the lyrics from what she said in balcony (which sounds similar to the lyric of the single) dunno tho xD

Well it's obviously hinting at that direction but I'm still expecting some curve ball somewhere along the line.

That's mostly what I was thinking too, though I thought more along the lines of
But our ideas are pretty consistent, like NeoAnkara said, I'm also expecting some weird curveball to come out of this. Guess we wait till next week.

Good episode focusing a lot around Saya. It's more clear now just how much she helps around the house and helps take care of her younger siblings. It was nice her parents are happy with her getting out and being social, especially her mom. Seeing a lot of Crunchyroll commenters and a few of you here speculating her mom got sick and Saya had to quit her previous band because of it. It feels like a strong possibility given how much Saya does do around the house and how she's always concerned about them putting themselves out.

Still would like to know a little more about what makes Arisa tick because I really like her! She doesn't feel like a typical tsundere character (not even sure you could classify her as one).

Was saya's mom HOT or waht? one of the best looking women ever! an actual grown woman who doent look like an old hag.

I like how after leaving the band, she's like not even friends with them.

why did we have to watch boring kasumi in a towel? why couldnt it be saya? or her mom!

btw, did kasumi kiss saya?

osts quite pleasant.
O-Tae's music lol, she should sing, it's great.
Saya translator, she seems really busy & some band backstory keeping her away from music.
Arisa quality tsun, referencing boom-boom-satellites.

This is one of the most relaxing episodes I've seen of anything anime in a LONG time. Nice flow to it!

And yeah. Having Saya alongside Arisa confirms that the single ponytail trumps the twintail in my book!

so the word Poppin' actually came from Arisa and Saaya is the one who originally decided to use that word for their school festival. And would be later use for their band name!
4/5.

The pacing is so slow that you can stop watching for a couple of minutes and still understand what happened in the episode by the time it finishes.

I'm excited for Poppin' Party's first live with all the members together once they manage to convince Saya into joining the band especially since I have no idea about what's going to happen next from this point forward!

I'm quite surprised that Saya is, or was, in a band with other girls before. I wonder what went on to make her not want to play with Kasumi.
