Lovely calm episode about the Karaoke and Festival cultures of Japan. I really liked most of all in the karaoke part as follows,

Run and Tooru duo was great. Yuko and Nagi were interesting but not as cute as Run/Tooru.

In the festival part I liked the most Tooru as follows,

most because of that mask and her yukata is nice. It's more the mask. Looks like Kitou and Satou are getting more along. That's good because I like Run better with Tooru than with Satou.

Nagi's singing voice is supprisingly good for a new VA.

The karaoke was pretty cool and it was funny how they got up there for the fireworks just to see it end.

Their singing voices were all surprisingly good. Normally they tend to put in one bad comedy performance. lol @ Run liking Karaoke primarily for the food they serve.

My finally for voice is simple: Tooru > Run > Yuko > Nagi. Yes Nagi is the one I less liked but it could be her song also. In fact Yuko/Run songs do want, Tooru/Nagi song is ~~~D: no good to me.

Lovely episode. Tooru being reluctant to sing karaoke was so cute! Even though she said she can't and she wants to learn how to sing, she didn't do bad at all! =)

The festival was nice too! They were so immersed into their work they didn't even notice the fireworks starting! xD

Finally an excuse for insert song, eh? Well, the songs were nice tbh. I liked Nagi's and Yuuko's first one the most.

"Take me summer breeze.." "Catch me summer breeze.." this song is pretty catchy. I hope this song will be on the OST or the character CD. And Nagi's VA could sing pretty well.

Now why is that creepy teacher appearing everywhere, is he stalking the girls?

The karaoke part was the best. Tooru finally got to sing and it was awesome. That stalker of a teacher or whatever his position is shows up again. LOL That's pretty lonely going to a karaoke place by yourself and it hurts even more knowing it's the stalker teacher. I thought they weren't going to see the fireworks, but then I thought wait this is A-Channel, of course they're going to watch it.

This felt like a final episode, it should have been imo. I don't think the last one will have more of a finale feel thant this one.

Wow each character has their own charm when they sing :) They're not different products with the same brand. I like them all :D

But I actually "HNNNNGGHH" when Tooru sang XDD Sho adorable :3

It was a good episode in my opinion. The karaoke place was interesting because you could order food and a beverage. I did like the duet Run and Tooru sang.

Nagi has a surprisingly good singing voice.
Nah, I won't say what's already been said a million times! Seriously though, I want to hear the full version of her song. ^_^;;

I don't get all the complaints about the insert songs. They're one of the better things in the show, I think. Then again, ever since Honey and Clover I've fallen in love with insert songs, so maybe it's just me.

Average episode, not much could have been done given the fact that most SOL series tend to follow the same formula but it was still relatively enjoyable.

One thing that totally stood out though was Nagi's singing. For a debuting Seiyuu, that was a really great performance and I'm really liking her work as Nagi, it feels so natural; hope to see more performances from her in the future.
Will I fall in love someday? I wonder?

Wow Run-chan is a really good singer. Her voice is cute!
It seems Aoi Yuuki has this running gag of her not being a good singer. Victorique apparently doesn't sing too well either? I thought she sounded great!

Ahh, the summer festival. Really makes me wish I lived in Japan and visited one of those as a kid. This episode felt both mood-lifting and a bit melancholic at the same time.

Very generic karaoke + summer festival. But the Run/Touro duet saved the whole episode ^^ It had the same kind of wow-factor as the first Yui/Mio version of 'Love is a stapler'

Everyone was good at singing, how unexpected. Should have done someone that wasn't, for those of us (like me) who can't sing lol :P
Festival was nice? Lots of eyecandy I suppose. Nagi was nice with her curled hair though :3

Tooru should not be ashamed of her singing it sounded very good to it was pretty cute to see her ashamed of it tho.
I also found it funny to see her try and standing in those shoes that where way to big for her makes me wonder when she will start to grow.

I'm going to pull the "you don't get it" card here. This isn't supposed to be exciting or even funny, it's an amusing slice of life. Try something else if you don't like this type of show, there's plenty to choose from.

Wonderful episode, made me smile multiple times. I want to try this katanuki stuff some time.

This episode secured Nagi as my favorite character. An Enka singer. Just awesome. Fit her personality so well.

Not only is she a hidden bishoujo but she's the most level headed. Can't help but connect her to Ritsu but it could be the Yuuko/Mio parallel.
