Is 12/13 episodes enough for season 2?

Maybe they're gonna fill it with all slice-of-life episodes until the end. I want moar songs >< Pure Pure Heart (was it?) wasn't enough for me.

I hope they play live again...but sitll all the episodes were cute XD

I really liked it, this was a good episode for me.

Finally we have some music, some cute girls in kimono and Yui and Azu-nyan's performance was great.

Azusa looked so cute in Kimono!
Yui must be amazing to be able to sleep during a exam and still get such grades.

I really liked Yui and Azusa performing together was funny as well.

Did anyone recognize Yui's humming all the way at the beginning? I swear, it sounded like Sore ga Ai Desho from Fumoffu...

The old lady had more screen time than Mio xD


It could just be me, but I think Mio has been relatively neglected this season...

EDIT: Oh yeah, the fanclub episode. Other than that, I mean.

A nice episode that managed to strike a good balance and managed to be both charming and heart-warming.

I agree with some of the posts above that we are getting some character development from Yui, and this episode served to illustrate it - although we could have done without her sleeping in the exams themselves, it did show how much Nodoka (during the exam), and the others (with the revision) care for her. The fact that Yui wanted to repay the old lady and was so determined to do so, illustrates a massive change from the completely ditsy, clueless and self-absorbed Yui we had in Series 1 Episode 1. A change for the better, and alongside the episode looking at Mio and Ritsu's childhood, we are getting a great look at their personalities. Hopefully Sawa-chan and then Mugi next!

4/5

This was a cute episode!
it didn't all flow that well though because it really seemed to follow the 4 panel manga format more than what I've seen in the other episodes. The first half of the episode was like some talking and talking, then a joke. But repeated for 12 minutes. Still good :)

The old lady creped me out. When someone is always nice like that and never does anything strange also, i find it very weird and creepy.
Also it needs someone like Yui do be accepting with so much happiness all the food and staff. Maybe it's a problem with me but when someone offers me something just because of kindness i tent to avoid them because i don't want to feel like am exploiting them or feel i have to do something for them later like Yui ended up feeling in this episode.

BTW Yui is a genius. Sleeping and still getting high grates.

True to boring old me, the most interesting thing I found in the episode was when the old woman called Azu-nyan as Azunyan-san, thinking that Azunyan was her real name just as Yui introduced her.

I guess old people make obvious and amusing mistakes like that no matter where you live.
Often that's what makes them so cute themselves. At least that kind of old person, not the "get off my lawn", "turn down your noise", "I hate minorities" kind of old person.

I don't know what surprised me more this ep; Yui's great scores or Azunyan-san's participation in the comedy. Good, endearing episode, even if it wasn't terribly funny or exciting.

Am I the only one who really love this episode?

Sure, the Kimono and stuff are cool, but am I the only one who actually like this story? The granny have taken care of Yui sooo much, it's almost like Yui is her grand-daughter... and Yui is trying to give back to one that is so kind to her.

I mean, from reading the comments on this topic, it seems to me that majority of the fans only watch this show for comedy, fashion(rare), music(rare) and moe... Which is kinda sad cuz this show "do" have some pretty nice message from time to time.

This episode would be awesome, with, or without the presence of the rest of the girls. Rarely can we see a K-On episode that contain such a nice purpose.

This season of K-On is pretty good. (IMHO)

5/5 for this lovely episode.

I do agree that Yui acted like a a retard a few times in this episode... ut seriously, those who say that they're not taking seriously this anime are stupid... Tell why do we watch a slice of life manga... 'Cause we expect a character development and a change in their lifes ne? Then it does make sense that personally love the fact that the girls are painfully slowly growing older and are finally getting to the point that they will break up and go their separate ways but still enjoy school and work hard...

IMO this was the best episode in the sense of character development since we got to see the evolution of Yui and how everyone else is growing too Yui might be a moeblob but she's slowly growing and being more mature.... sure she did lame things like forgetting what they neeeded for dinner or hitting her head with her guitar when bowing (which was cute by the way) but hey when she starts to give out all her attention to something she really manages to do it well... Yui is not an idiot, she's just a lazy ass xD If not then look at her notes, practicing hard with Guitah for the Festival and then Azusa helping her out... I bet Azunyan's help paid a lot! I guess she really helped Yui a lot!

The granny... when i watched the preview I thought granny was Ui's and Yui's grandma... but I guess I was wrong... is just a plain old neighbor... Dunno if I agree with ya Monad, but since its an old lady that they've known for years...that's not a problem.... In fact I found her so... wow awesome 'cause she has watched over the girls all this years... Granny is moe for sure!

YuiAzu festival participation was awesome! I loved the remix of that song... But definitely enka remix would have been much better... too bad they got cut off! That's not fair ¬¬ I wanted to hear more of the song ¬¬

Pretty laidback episode. I was totally expecting Azusa to 'reprimand' Yui for multi-tasking.. it was unexpected she ended up helping Yui instead. That's really sweet of Azusa.

I thought this episode has been a lot better than the previous few. I actually enjoyed this one, which is quite a change since I've disliked this series so much.

I like the new Yui; when she used to slack off, it was boring because nothing happened, but now (or at least in this episode) she was more focused and didn't get on my nerves as much ^^

Their teacher still pisses me off though; people aren't like that in real life, and in my opinion she is such a pathetic character.

Everytime anyone calls her Azu-nyan, I die a little inside.

As a Peruvian, I was offended by the Inca version of Fuwa-Fuwa Time.

Is it really necessary to ask for permission to pick up a dropped eraser in Japan?

I acknowledge she may have been pre established. But I don't remember if we've met this old lady before in the show. Still it was a simple enough concept to roll with. And I think it added up to a pretty good episode. Though it's so obviously telegraphed, and honestly not even particularly earned I always like seeing Yui accomplish things. Maybe it's because her character seemed so absolutely worthless at the beginning of the series. Maybe because it vindicates her poor sister's seemingly misplaced faith. I don't know. But also her and Azu-nyan were as always very cute together.

Where exactly is the plot for this season going at all? 9 episodes in and nothing exciting has happened so far, aside from the Kyoto trip but that was only one episode. I'm kind of dying of boredom so far this season.
