Finally, Lilisa and Otoha on the same page in the band. I mean, yeah they need more band members but it's a start.

That new girl Arisu is a funny one. She loves cats and seems to resent Lilisa. It's a slow start but Lilisa and Otoha and building a partnership.

Weekly dose of my rock lesbians! Another banger episode from anime of the season. Last week marked the start of the band, but now it’s time for the girls to get some experience playing with other people! It also wouldn’t be a music anime without the sibling haters to lovers trope lol. Always has to be a younger sibling who acts like they hate their older sibling and end up admiring them and wanting to be closer.

Alice comes off like a massive bitch and don’t get me wrong, calling Lilisa’s mom pathetic was way out of line, but I guarantee she’s gonna have a strong admiration deep down for Lilisa and she’s probably gonna end up being upset that Lilisa just takes all these orders from her mom without questioning them. I’ve seen this trope too many times to believe she actually wants Lilisa out the house. I got so much anxiety when she pulled up to the abandoned school building, good thing Otoha had a scout on standby lol!

Speaking of Otoha, we got our SECOND lesbian awakening of the season, this time with Otoha and Alice. Too bad Alice doesn’t know how much of a degenerate and weirdo Otoha is πŸ˜‚ just a few mins earlier she’s talking about how she’ll play with anyone as long as they’re rough and dirty and “to be honest that jam session we had was the first time I got down and dirty with someone” LMAOOO yea I’m keeping the rockgasm nickname for their performances. This girl is GAY.

Going back to Lilisa’s mom tho, honestly Lilisa does need someone to push her to stand up for herself because I cringed so much from that opening dialogue where the mom told her to not embarrass the family with rock music anymore. People think they want to be from rich famous families, but no you don’t. The toxicity and expectation to confirm is so bullshit. This series should inspire everyone to get out and be themselves.

Didn’t expect the band they’re performing with to be a percussion band with old guys in it lol, that should be fun. Can’t wait for the next episode! These always go by so quickly 😩 tryna hold off on the manga till the season over but may cave. Love this show sm.

Big cliffhanger after the ED i wonder how this will go.
The girls heading out for their first concert and the first time playing in a group not to mention a different style of music than they are used to.
Looks like next week will be interesting.

So Alice really wants to "protect" her father against Ririsa and her mother... she's annoying, anyway now the two main girls are going to participate in a concert with an orchestra especially that Ririsa will have to play the bass this time, they managed to avoid being caught by Alice fortunately but she definitely has more plans to ruin Ririsa's reputation since she's going to the concert with that Hiyori girl now :S

The start of the episode was kinda wild—it felt like the instructor was low-key edging just from hearing Alice play. And then Lilisa’s mom acting like a complete maniac—no doubt she’s crazy under that sweet facade. Demanding Lilisa to act like some obedient little puppet? Yeah, no thanks.

Alice needs to chill a little—hating on Lilisa and her mother like that. Yeah, it’s understandable they barged into her house out of nowhere, but isn’t her dad just as much at fault for being a horndog and marrying another woman?!

I’m seriously curious about Lilisa’s past—what really went down between her father and mother? I need some reason to justify all this hate, lol.

Otoha is something else—a total beast. When she talked about that jam session with Lilisa, it sounded like she was having an orgasm or something. And with the way bodily fluids are always splattered around after their sessions, I honestly wouldn’t be surprised. Then she’s like, “I’d be happy to jam with anyone, as long as it’s rough and dirty”—I can’t even tell if she meant it literally or if she even caught what Lilisa meant back there.

I’m definitely looking forward to Lilisa and Otoha’s concert next week. Also curious what kind of favor Hiyori asked from Alice.

Alice is just a spoilt bitch who just can't except her dad remarried. It's nice to see Lilisa and Otoha are getting on and starting to perform well together.

Arisu is spiteful toward her step-family (rightfully so in the case of her step-mother), but she sure is so adorable and wholesome when it comes to Kuroneko!

I actually feel disappointed with the relationship within the Suzunomiya family right now.

At a time like this Arisu should be more respectful and at least be polite to her step-sister, even a year has passed this relationship has not improved. I hope their relationship will gradually improve no matter what the situation is in the future.

And also there is the first stage appearance for Lilisa and Otoha, a little nervous does not affect them to stop here. This is a good opportunity for them as a beginner band to show off and to find new members for their band.

I was wondering for the first three episodes how a mother could subject her child to what can only be described as abuse 24/7 only for it to turn out that she is partaking in the abuse as well. And shouldn’t a violin teacher know that someone doesn’t become a master violinist in a year?
I have to put this show down for a few weeks, it’s way too toxic for me to stomach right now.

@ajw215799 that you find this too toxic. This is the lightest degree of toxicity you can have IRL in situation like this more or less.

@Vizvezdenec I just find Lilisa’s situation to be abusive, plain and simple. And by putting it down for a few weeks, it fits in with a pledge I made to be more mental health conscious about the anime I watch.

Things got tense with Alice, who almost found out her stepsister secret, but actually considering the cliffhanger, she might really find out after all.
Loved seeing the girls looking to play for the first time in front of a crowd and joining a band for the occasion.

The episode where they ran out of budget? Full of static shots and pans, plus only a few seconds of mocap'ed instrument playing. And it looked as though they couldn't even animate the violin teacher's lip flaps in one cut, but I guess her dialog could have been internal. Anyway, I suppose we can't expect something like last week in every episode.

Everything about family conflict is so seen in the world of anime that is ridiculous. I want to listen to music and not fall into the click of the stepsister and "the crazy mother"

I’m not sure what exactly happened with Lilisa and her mother before joining the Suzumiya family, but it must have been something deeply impactful—especially for her mother. I understand why they’re pretending and lying for the sake of being part of a prestigious family now, but between themselves? That feels strange. I still don’t know what to think about Lilisa’s mom. On one hand, she seems scared of being abandoned or left alone because of what happened with Lilisa’s father. On the other hand, she comes across as manipulative, prioritizing her place in the family over her daughter’s feelings.

Those two at a symphony? I doubt they’ll keep up appearances. And the symphony leader’s words about giving it their all—well, they’ll probably take it to the extreme.

So far, Arisu has been the most rational one at school and the only one who sees through Lilisa’s lies. Her rejection of Lilisa and her stepmother is understandable to some extent—the attachment to her father and her past life makes it hard for her to accept them. However, based on the opening, it seems like what happens in the next episode will drastically change her attitude toward Lilisa.

It felt like we got some good story progression this episode. I'm glad they are branching out and trying out playing in different bands. Hopefully we get to hear their performance next time to see how they sound in a different style. The sister is definitely about to find out the truth so it will be interesting seeing how she reacts. Given the focus of the series I an assuming she will join the band? Otherwise, we will definitely at least get an arc of acceptance towards her sister.

I just feel bad for Lilisa more and more each time. Her mother is abusing, her sister hates her while she have to work hard to maintain her standards. Now I actually glad Otoha dragged her into this atleast one way she can some joy.

I can see why you would be hostile to your new step family sometimes and she's still a kid so I refrain from judging soon. She do has point about Lilisa being her mother's puppet. You don't have to give up shit because of your parents..

Alice probably gonna find their secret or megane girl will save again.
But this peaceful band has no idea what these two cute degenerates are capable off. I am so looking forward to see how it goes..

A great horror movie turned out, thanks Lilisa's mother for this, and a great musical performance will be on the following week, unfortunately.
