Bah, even Azu-nyan got to see shimapan but, although fanarts exist in the net, we didn't! Zetsuboushita!

Ritsu has once again forgotten to give the form, it's getting a bit old. lol @ Yui dressing guitar with her seifuku. Azu-nyan's reaction to Yui saying she bought the guitar just because found it cute was... cute. Mugi-tan's eyebrows are working their magic again.

KyoAni, can you please cut this pointless drama in my K-ON!? I'm here to watch moeblob characters having fun, not arguing. Azunyan's attempt at stopping the argument with nekomimi ears and Ritsu's heavy metal career (is it just me or did the drummer in DMC wore the same face make-up?) was cute, but still, its pointless. Just glad its resolved with yet another stupid misunderstanding.

Game8910's character performance (ep 11)


I liked the small drama parts, if K-ON was 100% moeblobing even I would start to get bored of it, so this chance of pace really makes it a little more interesting

I really love how Azusa has a Pink Kitty mug and pen. <3
I laughed how easily Mugi could take advantage of the guitar shop and not be aware of it, how pure of her.
I want Ponytail though...

I want some Ui next week though <3

From what I just read there, it seems to be a perfect port from the manga. KyoAni isn't making storyline decisions here, the original author is.

Decent episode, but I wish they could have just used the original material from ch 23 instead of what they did here. I think it would have been better than the drama.

Well something like this was bound to happen if they're always together, was a nice change of pace.

Yui's airheadness keeps astonishing me xD . Mio was a great onee-chan in this episode and Mugi saved the day again with her status, heh.

Somehow, this episode impressed me less than all the previous one. Maybe once I've rewatched it, I'll get to understand it better.

Azusa's reaction to Mio's last year performance was priceless and Mugi saved Yui's hide - again. The benefits of being friends with the richest girl in town...

Even though the drama felt incredibly forced, the resolution and treatment of it was quite good I must say. The last few minutes were entertaining at least.

I agree; that's all I want from this show and that's all it needs.

The drama is pointless and only makes the show worse.

That would be such a waste. Some mindless moeblob may be fun sometimes, for a while, but i doubt many would survive 50 episodes of this.

That music shop guy is a genius. He turned a plain maple top finishing into a flamed maple top...

Drama in K-ON again. I don't think this show is long enough for them to introduce drama in something filled with moeblobs. Ths episode itself was pretty boring too.

I could watch 50 episodes of Yui being semi-retardedly hilarious. Easy.

First half was so true to the manga it astounded me. Although the few missing points were disappointing.

Including:
-Azusa's nosebleed when she saw the video of last year's live.
-Mio was only looking at two guitars, the manga had three.
-Yui said 'stripped naked' in the manga, 'deflowered' in the anime. Though I'm guessing that's just depending on how you translate it.
-Few other minor details, but those were my biggest problems. Yeah, I'm borderline OCD, leave me alone.

Second half was pretty much all filler, and while it was good that they came up with a way to give Yui her cold, it wasn't really necessary, and now I know why so many people were complaining about unnecessary drama... cos the anime producers put it there. Geez, are all anime producers this bad at producing filler material? Naruto, Bleach, K-On!, Negima!, etc. Every filler I've ever seen has had unneeded amounts of drama and an extreme lack of character depth and development (unlike most of the time when it's sticking to the manga... then it usually stays pretty good). Are the producers writing it and refusing to hire real writers? Or are anime writers just that bad?

Anyway, back on topic. Sawa-chan's naming of the band was so perfectly done it's crazy, not to mention that they put in every possible name mentioned in the manga before she snapped.

Final moment where they broke the 4th wall was good too.

Crisis huh?

This episode was full of rehashed jokes and contrived drama. The only new content I liked was Yui and the name of her guitar. Otherwise, this was piecy and executed poorly for the "we have to toss in some drama" episode.

I wonder how many people currently watching K-On have seen Manabi Straight. It's practically the same thing except they do a slightly better job of sticking to the story. And it's prettier to look at.

The name of the guitar isn't new content, that was in the manga. Although, in the translation on onemanga, it's spelt Giita, but that's beside the point.
