Uenoyama would go gay for Kaji's muscle! Kaji would go gay for Haruki's hair LOL!

Mafuyu and Ritsuka have some great chemistry. It was fun to watch their interactions. Mafuyu's singing finally, and he's absolutely amazing. I really hope people don't skip this one purely because it's a shounen ai.

uenoyama and mafuyu are honestly adorable together. i feel like in general all the main (?) characters are pretty good. i wish people wouldn't skip this one just because it's shounen-ai, it's really sad

Oof I think Sato's voice will be better when there's actual lyrics.
His "la-la-la" felt very awkward to me for some reason.
Sato is still my least favorite character tbh.
Although I love Uenoyama's reaction to his voice and his personality to death.

Satou is such a blank slate. I doubt he's an alien but seriously what's his deal? I hope it's not amnesia! I'll be disappointed if we don't get his backstory soon.

I'm shipping Mafuyu and Ueno-kun so hard. I can't wait to see Mafuyu join the band as the lead singer.

I might've awaken my gay side for this anime lmaoo.

I loved Mafuyu's singing voice, but I truly do hope he'll get some lyrics next time, it was a tad awkward for me to watch.
It's hard not to compare it to the manga, which is frankly one of my favorites, and I had like, zero expectations from the anime, but so far I am surprised and in a good way! The atmosphere is just right, and the pacing is good (which means it's quite slow. Slow is good, don't give up on this one yet. ) ;)

Oh, so it's Satou who sings the ED song. Such a nice voice he has.

Pretty entertaining episode overall. I'm really enjoying the dynamic the band has so far. As some people have said, the interactions between the main duo, Kaji and Haruki feel really natural so I hope it stays the same way when the drama finally comes.

i think we already got a glimpse of something in the first episode. it would explain why hes so quiet and whatnot.

i quite liked the ending for episode 2!! uenoyama's reaction to mafuyu's singing was adorable!!

Agreed! Though for some reason I feel as if the awkwardness was intentional, the entire scene felt this way with Uenoyama blushing and such... The scene was actually great, it somewhat reminded me of my past crush and the same feeling I had for them.

I am enjoying the series so far, the anime seems very well-paced and natural. The art style is great, too.

Also for some reason the piercing guy reminds me of Noiz from DMMD and now I just can't unsee that. :D

This is seriously some good stuff. Loving the interactions between the band members. Uenoyama keeps referring to Satou as a lost puppy following him around, however, Uenoyama is the real lost puppy here XD

So, I like a good love story, and Beck Mongolian Chop Squad is one of my favourite anime/manga of all time...... This is Beck but gay and I am so fucking into it, it's tiny details I appreciate in these kinda shows like the fact every instrument in the show is an actual real world instrument and from the hints of the sorta tunes were to expect from the PV and the jam sessions I am so fecking ready for some absolutely bangers. Doubt it'll ever replace Beck in my favourite music series spot but I feel it'll be pretty high up there

I thought Mafuyu's really sang back then when i was reading its manga version, but he was just humming a chord of that song. Whatever, it's still great to see Ueno and Mafuyu low pace been building up >.<, more badumps are comin' up and Ueno's whole body will quiver because of Mafuyu, y'all record this.

looking forward to hear their music and stuff band.

What a solid episode. Great comedic elements, awesome music, and character growth. Uenoyama and Sato keep suprising each other with their awesomeness. Sato has a unreal voice - I wonder what it sounds like with a rock song. He's voice is suited for pop and r&b music for sure, that's talent to cross so many genres.

I wonder what part time job they'll end up with for Sato. We deserve the hilarity of Uenoyama and Sato being surrounding by screaming girls at a rock concert. Haruki's hair video was hilarious - Akihiko seems to his hair too ;-) hmmmm. Akihiko has like 10 jobs and remains sexy doing all of them, whew.

It feels like we should be on episode 4 or 5 but we're just at episode. Akihiko and Haruki are shipping Uenoyama and Sato like the rest of us haha. I am wondering if they will dive into the pressures of Uenoyama and Sato having to deal with being queer in high school. They both will have different struggles with coming to age. Uenoyama having to deal with his friends and family that knew him for one for so long (and even himselgf discovering who is ). Then there's Sato who will have to come to terms and and face what was hinted at in episode 1.

I didn't like Mafuyu's singing voice, at all. I wish he was less airheaded. Otherwise, It was a good episode.

glad i'm not the only one that disliked mafuyu's singing voice (or maybe it'll sound nice when it's not just la la la la la la: classic lyrics). that said, that whole scene with the "there's a song that keeps playing in my head" could make one good meme.

I get a real sugar rush from this show, and I can never wait for the next episode. I think it's gonna be impossible not to spoil myself by reading ahead in the manga.

I feel like every character that Uenoyama and Mafuyu interact with has extremely acute gaydar/shipper goggles. They're honestly not even being flirty yet.

"La la la" a capella doesn't really do anything for me either, but it is what it is. I'm sure it'll be great to hear Mafuyu actually sing with music.

Another great episode. I love the pace and the way Satou is slowly getting to know all the band members. Just like in the manga, I love Kaji and I can't wait to see more of him in the anime. I am sure Uenoyama is impressed with Satou's fast learning skills by the way. His humming at the end was cute, but I was a bit disappointed too. I can't wait to hear Satou sing a 'real' song!

a Highschool Musical Yaoi tease. Stereotypical characters like the scary but kindhearted type, the the tsundere,the helpless boy bla bla bla. Its looks great and its fun to pass the time. Nothing new but its sweet. Haven't read the manga.

This.


Don't worry y'all. Prepare yourself for it because once the backstory starts everything will definitely make sense. I think the anime, like the
manga, is purposely drawing it out on purpose though. It is a little hard to take in at once so this 'mystery' helps take it in slowly.
I will NOT spoil though because part of enjoyment is finding out.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

La la la part was VERYYY awkward, as most singing scenes in anime are, but EASILY forgiven because he is so adorable.
Uenoyama seriously reminds me of Kageyama from Haikyuu haha. I thought the ending scene (minus cringiness) was very adorable.
Mafuyu is just like a very lost puppy that I feel like anyone would want to protect.

The way he says Uenoyama's name is honestly adorable too. Who wouldn't fall in love with him? ;____;
Although, as someone who has read the manga I have mixed feelings even though I'm so happy...I can't be happy.

the 2nd couple ruined the story for me, just wish the author dont make both of them as couple bcs if both of them become couple, then its like ur usual bl anime where everyone side character near the mc are gay for eachother. But yeah, at least the main couple are fluff & healthy.

Lol After Mafuyu learned how to do the chord and just started strumming aimlessly is exactly me whenever I mess with my brother's bass and guitars. Also me on the piano. Also me on the recorder. Also me on the drums. Also me on the clarinet. Also me on-- you get it. :U

I'm actually eh about Mafuyu's voice though, but I'll pretend I like it for the sake of the plot.

What I do like is the way a lot of these characters interact. I feel like there are subtle things in the way they speak and interact that imply that there are some unsaid things going round in a lot of their heads. They do well in making the audience wonder what those things are-- for me at least. We have to wait and find out what they are I guess! I haven't read the manga, so I feel like it's gonna be a ride.

Also, can I just say how I simultaneously hate and love that Haruki reminds me of France from Hetalia? Since France is one of my favorite characters, I can't help but already kinda like Haruki starting out. At the same time, I don't want to just automatically like a character for such a reason. BUT in Haruki's defense, resemblance to France or not, he seems like a pretty nice and chill guy on his own.

Gosh darn it, I'm tempted to just read the manga. I'm free user-ing it on Crunchyroll, so I have to wait a week for episode three anyway.;; Maybe. I'll see.

Second episode and I already love this.

Even though Mafuyu singing there at the end was kinda akward, it's forgiven because he's adorable lol. And Ueno fell for him okay okay. Can't wait to see more... I'll probably end up reading the manga haha.

Also the ending is so cutee! I love the puppy so muchhh

I can't stand Haruki & Akihiko, THEY'RE TOO HILLARIOUS. I love the cafe scene where they share story about their professions.

Oh, i'm sure that girl has a crush on Ueno, thus making her a rival for the main pairing

Not gonna lie i do think Mafuyu's voice is great but, I CANT STOP CRINGING WHEN HE SANG

I think Mafuyu's clueless demeanor was kind of funny and somewhat endearing at first but I am quickly beginning to realize how central this quirk is to understanding the character and I do not like it.

Glad I'm not the only one who isn't rely vibing with Mafuyu's vocals at the end.
