THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Yukina always knows what to do. She realizes immediately that you have to learn from defeats in order to become even stronger. Losing against RAS can happen, but you have to know and understand why. A good leader does that directly.

RAS and Roselia in the top 2 places with the votes, while Popipa only stays on rank 22. After all, we get to see them again briefly. Arisa definitely wants to have more votes and reach a top place. Can they make it?! Not sure if they have the power to beat RAS and Roselia... but there is no trace of the other three bands HHH, PasuPare and Afterglow... too bad that they are not shown more.

"Fire Bird" we have another ED from Roselia, like in the second season with "BRAWE JEWEL" OP and "Safe and Sound" ED.

The plot is pretty similar to Roselia vs Afterglow event and some plot devices were reused quite often.

What's new is the interaction between RAS and other band members. We saw Hina is pretty acquainted with Pareo and Chu2, which I guess is from the manga? Also, we saw Lisa and Layer acknowledging each other. For me, the best moment is Masking joining the trio.

IIRC, Kanon is the only one who doesn't have any screentime in S3 yet and we probably won't see PasuPare and HHW due to the nature of the anime story.

Pareo is established PasuPare fan and all of PasuPare member recognized her due to her dedication with changing her hair color at every event they appear to match Pasupare. That's in season 2. She only acquaintance with Chu2 this season. Well Hina no nonsense easygoing personality is just make her easy to approach other.
Kickstarter for Rokujouma is fully funded. Good work everyone. Lets wait for the result of our hard work together.

Man.. Bang Dream just keeps surprising me every time. I really wasn't expecting to get into this show so much. Highlight of the episode definitely Roselia. Glad to see the girls getting back on track again, guess that duel against RAS managed to awaken their hidden flame for their upcoming performances. Btw, Fire Bird at the end? Fuck yeah man. Love that power metal-esque shit! Best song from Roselia imo.

I always wonder why Pareo have different hair colors each time she appears. :P

This season so far has been shit, i guess i'm only here for Poppin’Party as they have the best music by a large margin and interesting characters that i actually care about since season 1.
Currently just fast forwarding threw the episodes as they come out, it kind of feels like i'm watching K-On but the story suddenly shifted to focusing on Yui's friend Nodoka(the smart girl with glasses), and it's seriously boring atm. 4/10 so far for me and can't understand the current high rating as it barely deserves anything above 6 imo.

nice that we are getting some Bang Dream again. Yukina is a good leader, she knows that accepting the challenge is important for her band to grow. And Ako still the person to make me laugh with her intros. :D

Mocha has a funny way of talking, another person who makes me smile. Still remember the things she did in Garupa Pico. :p

Do you play the mobile game? I'm pretty sure the high rating is skewed by people who follow the franchise.

As for anime-only watcher, there is just too much material to cover from the game to make all the bands likable. That's why you only like PoPiPa because they had an entire season 1 for themselves.
_

As a fan of the franchise, I wouldn't give a high score either because the anime is created with backbone stories and references from the game and I'm not a fan of that. I don't understand their purpose of doing it this way other than to please the current fans aka fanservice.

So far, only the main plot and RAS related moments are new while almost all of the plot devices are being reused. I wish they could've gone towards something entirely new like maybe completely focus on RAS so it's easy to follow for both new and current fans.

Dude, I don't even know if you are trolling or serious. Tastes differ of course. For me personmally PoPiPa sound is to "pop" so I prefer more metal ones RaS and Roselia. But calling other girls and overall season shit is just to fat.

i can't get tired of this ending song, watching all the girls interactions is just so fun, like Rimi + Moca eating , Yukina Chuchu and Kasumi playing with cats, Tae + Layer with the bunny, Hina + Misaki + Kokoro playing with the ball, the girls fangirling over Kaoru theater performance, and much more =D

also, cool to see girls on the audience with Roselia clothes <3
favorite "new girls" from fall <3 (lol i only watched these) ... click sig for older seasons

Ran is just too adorable. <3

The Sayo - Yukina moment was very intimate and very sweet. Probably the best scene of the entire season so far if you ask me.

Very nice episode, the way Yukina kept the band in unity against adversity, I really doesn't understand her, especially after that horror story in the game.
