THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Not much change from the previous episodes. What I did like one thing about this episode is that there seem to be a boost in energy with some of the characters' songs in particularly the one at the end.

I don't think the fireworks gimmick fit too well though. And as usual, the guys' clothes comes right off lul. Sensei...

SO AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Finally we heard the song of the whole band - `What´s this?´
It is still breathtaking when I listen it over and over since the spring.

Omg, how I enjoyed to listen the song from game intro version and I still do (flashbacks...)

i'm glad those 2 joined the band, cause we'll have more variety

i'm also glad the shoin thiing has ended, cause now (imo) they will be more original and try to make their own path, instead of following shoin's steps
something like that xD

I spit out the water I was drinking (good thing it was only a little) when Souji arrived flying on that horse. Holy crap.

Expect big things next episode? Looking forward to it! Especially now that Souji and Hijikata have joined the band :)

I like the new song. And the clothing flying off was awesome as always. (I can never stop busting my gut!!)

Looks like the female rival band shows up next episode?

Omg awesome episode ... Souji and Hijikata join the band! :D LOL @ Souji flying in on that horse omg ahahaha XD LOVED the new song, it was so awesome :D So Souji lays the keyboards and Hijikata's on the guitar too eh ... I thought they'd both just be singers TBH ;P Oh well, that's still pretty cool. Hopefully we'll get to hear some harmonies in the singing parts with more people now :3
Ah, so Shoin-sensei was just being used by Ii and it wasn't even him either ... that sucks :( Though I guess it had to happen to convince Souji and Hijikata to join the band lol :P

This is why I can't take Otose seriously (Because a male VA voices her). lol Then again, I can't take this whole anime seriously. It's getting pretty stupider, especially the 3D models. >.>

R.I.P Sensei (Finally).

Two new members, neat.

Souji is BADASS (in a really, really gay-way, i just couldn't help but lol really hard).

The song in the end was great, tho sensei's last moments weren't emotional enough.. Even Kondo's were more emotional then this bullshit.

Next episode will feature a female rival band? cant wait! :D

Why does Souji still sings that song Kondo-san didn't approve of? Wasn't he suppose to carry out his will? Bad execution to attract audience.

Quite tired of them singing the same song over and over. Though I doubt new song will make them likable anyways.

Below average episode. Shoin-sensei last depart was supposed to be more emotional.
"♪ What this? ♫" (Copying their lyrics to express disappointment) XD


I agree, I practically felt zero emotion when Shoin-sensei died compared to when Kondo-san did.

On a separate note, I realize that the priorities of this show are music and hot guys but I am completely baffled by some of the story elements. Like I understand that Li is a magician of sorts because he can cast spells on people, but how the heck did Soji get wings in this episode? And how was his horse flying without wings? Also, how come every time the guys start rocking they turn 3D?

Anyway, it was nice to see Soji and Hijikata shirtless in this episode. Hopefully there will be more of that to come in future episodes :D

Somehow, that made even less sense than all the previous episodes combined. Seriously, they should quit the other songs and start singing the ending theme instead. It's so much better than all the other songs.

SAHPRISE!!!! Idk what was going on but lol

Souji's music is as boring as usual. Come on, Ono Kensho, you can do better!

I agree. I do like Reaction (Cindy's solo song) though and the song in this episode (What's This?)

Now I'm only watching this to see them bust out of their clothes and to have Hijikata's babies.

All of them stripped, good shit!

I am warming up to Soji and his voice, lol when he appeared with a (winged) horse and says "surprise! (echo)".

The series actually asked us to look forward to the next episode.. haha.

This was actually a quite decent episode, if they keep going like this it might actually get interesting in the end. Either way let's see what's next.

i don't care what anyone thinks, i really like otose's character design. i genuinely think she's pretty.🖤

the new song is good, but the best part of the episode was the horse scene.
maybe i should but i can't take ii seriously, though.
