Time to hit the proving ground in a manner of speaking. I'm not looking for another Linda Linda Linda tribute akin to God Knows like many others so much as I am looking for K-On to perhaps make something of itself as a music anime via the concert sequence that it can then call it's own......or at least for the girls to prove they have the heart to give it 110%. "Don't say lazy" right? That's the motto of the anime. Now it's time to put it to the test. If everything goes well then the total failure to show the steady improvement of the girls up until this point in any sort of fashion (let alone logical) could be somewhat forgiven.

Going to be focusing on audio with this one long before whatever they've got lined up for animation. Can't say I have terribly high hopes for anything extra special, but I believe this should be a solid episode given that it's the halfway point and the debut.

I must say Mio is kawaii in this ep.



Next ep Christmas ep with Ui.

AH!!! FINALLY THE ONE THING I'VE been looking forward too. 10/10

also

Someone sure stitched this fast:



:love::love::love:

OMG PANTY SHOT!!!

The first thing appear in my mind when open the spoiler is....Argentina flag?:heh:

geeez:rolleyes:

yay :D



Certainly this episode is not 'epic' as some people might want it to be, but it you know your genre you will be pleasantly surprised.

I certainly wasn't expecting another God Knows from Haruhi

but this definitely didn't match up to the Ending or the Opening
I blame the song and the cheesy (but not amusing) music video

Is the Krauser effect?

Ie: When he writes edgy songs he's awesome, but when the song is sweet and fluffy he sucks

The problem is that sugary girly j-pop is not to everyone's tastes. Mine first. :D

(more a Fields of the Nephilim listener and too many, including Opeth, to list here)

EDIT: Am I the only one who thought Thelma & Louise when viewing the MTV-style music video?

i really hated the music video and also the song itself was bad... I'm sure they'll have better ones later on.

Geez. How much clearer could it have been? Did you just wanted for Yui to shout 'HEY! THIS IS A JOKE! YOU CAN LAUGH HERE BTW! HOHOHOHO'. Because that was just what her *cough* voice, obviously amateurish music video and cheesy lyrics told me. That thing just threaded the fine line between being deadpan and slapstick. And it worked for me, I was just laughing out the whole way. :p

The song was the one written by Mio in the manga (just with an instrumental backing to it), and her taste in songs was exactly what was given. Heavy on the sweetness. That said, I liked the spontaneous music video. It made the episode fun, for much the same reason as Ritsu's over-the-top speeching in the music room. It was fun.

2 words for the video:

Driver's High!!!

I knew what to expect from the 4koma but I sure recall people talking as if they wanted the dream team of Petrucci, Hellhammer, Wakeman and (late) Burton.

It was a fun episode, but it didn't have quite the kick to it the past few episodes have had for me, especially compared to last episode, but it wasn't bad either.

The music video thingy caught me by surprise, but Yui's background vocals kind of messed with it a bit (intentional I'm sure).

Still a good episode overall. :heh:
