This epiaode has lots of cinematic flares like the first episode. I like it very much. I definitely didn't tear up while watching.

For some reason, I don't even like Yoru. Here, Yoru is the source of the problem, but he feels he is the one to blame. and that makes me hate him. Same, all the problems in this anime can be solved very easily, it doesn't feel realistic.
@Honakawa_rina are you perhaps below teen or something?

Yeah this show has kinda lost me after episode 9. Thankfully Girls Band Cry is still a banger.
@Chipp12 Can't agree more. Well written drama vs cheap melodrama

Why do these people have always come bring that series up here (you know which one) just to shit on yorukura, like, chill dude... we all know your fav series is better. Leave yorukura fans alone.

-----
On another note, this episode's full of youthful energy, not just about the story but the production behind it. I can feel the potential of Dogakobo young staff members, especially the episode director who just made a name for himself with this episode.

I'm looking forward to Staff twitter space part 2, part 1 was fun to listen to:

They were so energetic even if they streamed the space at 2 am in the morning lol.

Things they confirmed: the guy seen at the episode (through his aquarium) is the same guy as in the OP. Last week they also confirmed the guy in the OP is Kano's father, Yamanouchi Shotaro. By the way Kazuyuki Okitsu voiced the aquarium's announcer in episode 1 and Yamanouchi Shotaro/Kano's Dad. So it's possible that Kano's Dad worked at that aquarium Mahiru visited back then.

Loved this one, it really hit hard and fast. I really didn't expect that ending though, but it was all done very well.

JELEE kinda fell apart, but seems things will improve, gonna be a fun next couple episodes to finish this. I can't believe there's only 2 episodes left now, I just really hope they do this show justice by giving it the ending it deserves.

Well this episode confirmed this show was yuribait unfortunately. I have a big issue with just showing yoru like once after the near disbandment of the band with her just smiling?? Especially with her literally being the reason the band is in disarray. Either shes incredibly dense or she doesn't really care about the group. Otherwise good episode but yoru is mad annoying now.

That scene is simply indescribable, Kimura full of hate, full of frustration, why? I thought... how the hell would he let his friends, everyone's dreams, disappear, no, just not, so he does it and what is clearly seen is a cry of friendship coming from the heart, a cry of denial and love that left everyone stunned. everyone and without words, as he said, who can say no to something like that?..

All those calories jesus christ.

Idk what to say about Mahiru, I'm conflicted.

Mei singing all out from her heart got me emotional.

I'm still kinda on Kano's side, but she does need to communicate better.

Surely Mahiru will be the one to save Kiui from the upcoming big sadge.

MVP Mei

Big L Yoru for still working on a project for a group that she knows absolutely traumatized her friend, which is why JELEE was formed in the first place, and acting blind while all this drama is still going on and Mei & Kiui are cleaning up the mess

So this one threw me..

But at least I confirmed I can't stand Kano.

After last week I was genuinely expecting this episode to be about Mahiru sulking and Kano desperately trying to make amends for making a fool out of her. Meanwhile, Mahiru is more or less fine, sat down and got to work like a responsible, ambitious human being. The other two have to beg and plead, just so that Kano gets her entitled ass in gear after involving people in the band and then dropping out because someone said the quiet part out loud.

At this point Mahiru should probably just drop out entirely and focus on her art, instead of tying her career to someone who's already proven utterly unreliable.
I was shipping the hell out of these two, but at this point? Run, artist girl, and stay away. You can do waaaay better than this.

With Mahiru and Kano's falling out that causes JELEE to go on hiatus, both Kiui and Mei have no choice but to continue their daily lives doing Kano's job. Mahiru achieving Kano's goal of the popularity of 100k followers herself being a creative, and Mei meeting another influencer of Mero Setou a.k.a Yang Guifei...plus getting a kiss from her. she's quite the eccentric one at the very least to chase her around wherever she goes, plus Kiui delivering food to Shizue for a coincidental meet. Too bad that they ditched Kano's jobs, but it's probably for the better to face their troubles onward.

For the former idol member of Mero, her realizing that Kano is in a better spot now, it's another area of jealousy. Kano may have all but lost her purpose as Mahiru moves forward with Yukine's job, and having been found out by Mei of her past exploits, even much when mentioning her own mother who took advantage of her and the same effect when done to Mahiru, both mother and daughter are ironically the same and dealt their cards to the people they love. And the news of the disbandment may not sound great to everyone, not to Mei, which the Baba mother and daughter sprinted them with Mei's rather forceful singing to reach Kano both virtually and emotionally.

Yelp, this drama feels just too heavy and forced down the throat, though the final 2 episodes will make or break the show.

Mei MVP, but imagine randomly going around YouTube and just pass by this whilst Mei's in the middle of singing without knowing anything about JELEE :')
Mei and Kiui really held the fort down in Kano and Mahiru's absence

It was nice we at least get to see some snippet of Mero's past and how she became who she is now, yet another girl in need of some kinda therapy sheesh this anime doesn't go light on characters that need it

Sad that it's now Kiui who's gonna have to take the blow on something, I thought she already had her moment of despair but now again, poor girl can't get a break

MAHIRU JUST TALK TO KANO!!! This whole conflict could have been resolved if the characters (mainly Mahiru) actually properly communicated their emotions. Kano blew up because of trauma due to an abusive parent, makes sense. However Mahiru ghosting her friend, doing what she was angry about, and making no attempt at reconcile while the band(?) she's in is breaking up. Feels very out of character, and just there to drive drama. Everything else about this ep is great if you ignore Mahiru's actions.

I wonder if the show is going to tackle Kano's abusive relationship with her mother or not by the end of this series.

Anime keeps making me tear up lately and this is no exception 😭. I have to applaud Mei for unapologetically being a homo online, she is a real one!! Lol I've grown to love her straightforward self so much. I was so touched by her terrible singing 🥺 it was really full of love♡. Also I really appreciate how she went out of her way to hear from Kano herself after talking with Mero.

Tbh I feel petty for this but I'm still mad at Mahiru and it kind of pissed me off how she smiled while listening 🥲 Mahiru infidelity to Jelee moments. You are part of the reason the rest of Jelee is publicly having this messy ass exchange! Again, I'm conflicted because I understand how good of an opportunity the Sundolls job is but,,,,,not ur friend's abusive mom!! And also promise breaking with prior commitment. In the end, Yoru and Mahiru need to talk and apologize to eachother.

Anyways 👀 I'm very interested to see why Kiui reacted like that at the end!

They were about to disband but Mei was great because she was able to keep it from breaking. It's the most yuri confession ever in this show.

I'm annoyed that this show is trying to humanise Mero-chan. It's her fault that Kano had to leave in disgrace.

Looks like Yoru understands Kano and will work with her again after she gains the experience from the project.

And next episode looks like Kiui's episode.

One thing I forgot to note last time is that Kano's original form before her idolification looks like she could be Yoru's twin. Speaking of Yoru, she sure seems to be taking things in stride. No reaction to Jelee being under siege? Content watching the dumpster fire? Ok. Sure. Which brings us to-

All units...you're on your own. Try to hang on as long as you can. Don't give up! There still might be a way for us to pull this out! And if not, let's give 'em holy hell! Piano hapa and snaggle tooth streamer are here to hold down the fort! They uhh, did not hold down the fort and now Jelee needs a new HQ location. Single mom idol hag that deceived her fans rebranding to eating fetishism sounds about right and her place will serve as the new base of operations.

Jelee has an important announcement to make! Piano hapa is pregnant and now Kano has to take responsibility!

The last 2 episodes are going to have to put in a lot of work to make up for Yoru being nonchalant while piano hapa went on a suicide mission.

This episode was both a nice break from the monster ending of the previous episode in the first half, and at the same time a return to the drama in the 2nd half, and then the good vibes returned at the very end, but honestly I love it lol. First half was a lot of fun with the goofiness of Kim stalking Mero, and even getting a big smooch which made her yuri heart flutter and nearly distracted her from her main objective lol. This did yield something interesting from Mero tho, being that both her and Kano were signing for Yukine, and that there was no other reason, and when you draw that connection to why Kano is singing for JELEE, it is a bit sad but I think Kano is singing for more than just her mom, she just doesn’t know it.

Also, Baba is a mukbang youtuber now, that’s a word I haven’t thought of in a long time lol, but hey whatever brings in the cash, just don’t get a heart attack. And man, the last moments of this episode with Kim singing her heart out to get the attention of Kano and also because of the high emotions over JELEE disbanding was so good, but I can’t lie I did laugh a few times because of how she sounded lol, but of course that is intentional and for that I say it sounded great. And thankfully Kiui wasn’t afraid to break a few laws and speed over to make Kano hear Kim, which has brought Kano back into JELEE and out of her slump. That’s great and all, I’m just over here feeling bad for the viewers over the rollercoaster of a live stream that was, they managed to break up and join back together over the course of one stream lol. And what’s Mahiru doing? Just working on her commission while watching the stream, I get that was to show she’s happy for the outcome but she absolutely would have let them disband if not for Kim, kinda puts a bad taste in my mouth in regards to Mahiru but hopefully she’ll reel me back in, I don’t want to dislike her lol.

And looks like we got incoming Kiui drama, bring it on, we’re near the end of the show and I’m hungry for babe drama!

i absolutely loved this episode, mei's definitely my favourite character from this show too.. the scene of her singing whilst kiui went to get kano made me so emotional, even though a scene like that is somewhat typical in music drama animes they always get me (╥﹏╥)
