The band arc has finally begun!

I lol'd seeing the randoms in Himeko's band.
And Switch's nerd band too. Oh man.

Poor Bossun

Ah, nice MJ reference.
HELL YEAH RANDOM ROMAN!

OH SHIT WE HAVE FUNNY BUNNY CONFIRMED

Interesting to note all of the humming and strumming this ep were from different parts of Funny Bunny.

MJ Reference
A subtle anime reference to either K-On! or Beck by Switch

And Funny Bunny by the Pillows!

confuser987:Then you guess it wrong, that violinist is different person.

Is it just me that feel that the story finally moved?
It's looking good for Yusuke, he improved quick for just 3 days, but I wonder what happend with the band Yusuke joined, shouldn't it be normal to practice with them?
Feel kind of weird vibes here.

Sugisaki Ayano looks like a really nice person in this episode.

Where is all comedy lol?

Looks like Roman is going to have competition. Shows always seem to have these kind of characters. The really popular idol, but they just want to be viewed as ordinary girls.

Dunno what references you're all talking about. Or I just don't know about them. Not that it matters I guess.
And I like Sugisaki already. Though I think she's hiding something.
I liked that silent confrontation of Tsubaki and Bossun at the end, but that phone call sounds bad.
Nice start to the arc. Hope we get some decent music in the festival.

Great episode! This is the show I look forward to the most every week. :)

About references... I swear there was a Bakuman one! Bossun and the guy who scouted him and then they were like "The boys will pledge to make their big break by the time they were 18"

It sounded like a Bakuman reference to me!

Also, loved Bossun and Tsubaki's walking by eachother in the end. I LOVE when they interact with eachother. XD

very good episode^^
This new arc seems to be interesting... At least we have the seitokai band :D
The phone call at the end seems disturbing °~° I suppose that yabasawa has something to do (Like in the last competition...) so their band can't give the performance...I can add that even bossun will have some problems with his band.. so, finally, we'll see the sket-dan with the violinist as a team...(this is just my feeling :D)

Waiting for the next episodes xD

Haha seems like I wasn't the only one thinking of that. :P

And this might be really just me but I couldn't stop thinking of Naruto reference while the 'unknown members' in Bossun's band with bags on their hads had only one hole in each bag... xd

The episode was pretty good in general, my only complaint is that during the practice of Himeko and Switch Himeko's collar was randomly missing at times, lol. Anyhow I hope that they will do a good job with the festival.

I don't think so. He went to the music room as a refuge from the competing songs in the club room. As someone said earlier, it is a little strange that this band is not practicing together. Could we see a five person band being set up with Roman on vocals and bass, guitar, violin and drums/keyboards as backup?
Please don't feed the trolls!

What is this? An episode with good humor, plot, AND another interesting character? I thought we were operating on the "pick-two" rule! So many awesome references, and Bossun turns out to be a musical genius.

Nice episode, can't wait to see all their performances :) That girl makes me worry a bit though, makes me wonder if she's really trying to be nice or if there's something behind it...?

The manga sprinkles in chapters here and there for shippers. Later on there are other characters besides Roman with crushes on Bossun too. (And some for Himeko and Switch too)

I thought of it too, it's a nice idea, 'cause the ED is actually really good.

This.

I think that Bossun really needs to get a girlfriend... the attitude between him and the violin girl was great.

Hime is really sexy. I think I've already said this(on first episode comments), but the choice on her was really good shot.

Why does he need to be with anyone?

Let him be his own man.

Himeko as well should be allowed to be herself.

A band arc? Love it, that's right up my alley. But how did he practice for three days without tuning his bass xD I assume the bass player in Yabas' band can't play anymore? Though there shouldn't really be a problem if Bossun helps out.
