In ep8...
The good news, Kasumi got her drummer.
The better news? Her school isn't closing, so she doesn't need to enter and win any competitions to keep it open!

Consider the scene in LL S1E8 where Honoka holds her hand to Eli and asks her to join while the other 7 members look at her hopefully.
Add in the scene in LLS S1E9 where Chika asks Dia to join while the other 5 members look on and Ruby presents her the new costume.
Every member played a role, they said or did something, to welcome the new prospect, the same way the group leader did. It may or may not have been as much as the leader did, but it was more than just being friendly to a fellow student. Which is what the interactions between the current and to be members of Kasumi's band felt like prior to them joining.
And K-On! outdid LL with every member putting in nearly equal effort in bringing the new member in.
Their pitch to the new members was all of them saying, "join
us"
While BanG Dream was more like Kasumi saying, "join
me"
Anyway, it was a weakness, not a showstopper, and it's over now. And we move on to the next phase, "how-to-save-the place-we-love"
Speaking of future developments, you guys heard about this?
BanG Dream! Project Reveals 8 More Band Cast Members
Two more bands, with a total of ten new members. I have to ask, what are they planning to do with them? They're not going to be in the anime, not for more than a cameo. Doing anything significant with them would be like if Sunshine had been announced just a year after LL itself. So what's going on?
