Let's assume the first season starts at the same time as it was aired: 2009. If Mio becomes 15 on January 15, 2009, that means her DoB (date of birth) is January 15, 1994. This means the three other girls are from 1993 (they become 16, if you recall). Quote:
If we assume that Yui's DoB is November 27, 1993, Ui's DoB has to be February 2, 1995. If she was born in 1994, she'd be merely a month younger than Mio and be in the same class as her. Since she's not, she's at least a full year younger, so a year and a month (or 13 months). As for Azusa, we know her BD is on November 11, that she's a year behind the others and that she's 15 when she enters HS (in 2010 – assuming she never skipped a grade). This puts her DoB at November 11, 1994, which means that she's only 10 months younger than Mio, and 3 months older than Ui.

It be funny if Ui was born in 1994...only because the only way that would be possible would be if she and Yui were twins, but somehow Yui was born just over two months early. How is that possible? Generally, it should not be possible.
Therefore Ui had to be born in 1995.

Regarding the time period and birthdays in K-On!(in manga, not anime):
Firstly, school year in Japan goes from April of one year to March of the coming year. e.g. 2007-4 to 2008-3 is one school year. Remember at the beginning of volume 3 those color pages chapter(wasn't serialized in the magazine) when Yui and the girls go to the shrine for New Years? You'll recall that Ritsu received New Years Greeting cards from the other girls. Azusa's, Yui's and Mio's cards all had cows on it, meaning they were welcoming 2009, the year of the Cow according to Chinese Zodiac. At this time they were 2nd years(They became 3rd years a few chapters later, where the anime Season 2 Episode 1 starts). For a more concrete evidence, in the final graduation chapter in volume 4, after the girls left, Azusa was along in the club room looking at the photo album, specifically looking at a picture of Yui and the girls graduating. Under the picture it clearly says "March 2010". What this adds up to is that, Yui, Mio, Ritsu and Mugi entered the school in 2007 April (Incidentally, the manga started in the 2007 May issue, which was released also in 2007 April) when they were 15. Azusa, Ui, Jun, entered the school in April 2008. So the birthdays Japan Wikipedia listed, while not canon, does make sense: Yui: 1991-11-27 Mio: 1992-1-15 Ritsu: 1991-8-21 Mugi: 1991-7-2 Azusa: 1992-11-11 Ui: 1993-2-22 Nodoka: 1991-12-26 Sawako: 1984-1-31

BTW, for those interested, here are the official DoB's: Yui: November 22, 1991 Mio: January 15, 1992 Ritsu: August 21, 1991 Mugi: July 2, 1991 Azusa: November 11, 1992 Sawako: January 31, 1984 (meaning she's 23 when the show starts) Nodoka: December 26, 1991 Ui: February 22, 1993 Jun's DoB is not listed. Thus, the theory that Mio is younger than any of her bandmates (with the exception of Azusa) is true.

This might seem like a silly question, but here goes...
Has there actually been any instance where Yui has been angry? I don't think we've ever seen her angry at all. (Well, I would imagine an angry Yui would sound alot like Fam Fan Fan, who is also voiced by Aki Toyosaki)

The one when Nodoka ate Yui's strawberry. She might not look like being angry, though but I believe she was quite angry since she pretty much pushed Nodoka.

about the birthdays, it would seem that Mio is only a couple of months older than me, and we could be in the same batch, i mean, they would be on the same year level as i am (if i were in the anime, or if they were real). i don't really have a problem in dating older women XD.

Yui getting angry... I could only think of that strawberry scene... But if you mean determination look she actually have a few. the most distinct 'frown' is when she and ritsu went on with the "Japanese language over English language" pledge. LOL.
I guess this question could be asked on Mugi too. I cant recall any time she's angry ._. Quote:
Spoiler for :
btw read the manga when you're free. it's really good. it has so many scenes that could become episodes in the anime but didnt. Spoiler for :

Edit: as for Yui getting truly angry, I don't really recall a scene like that. The strawberry incident came close, but I think she was more in shock than angry at the time.

Volume 2, page 69. When Yui says that she doesn't have money to pay for her guitar's reparation bill, Mugi gives the store clerk a stare that apparently terrifies him, prompting him to scrap the bill. This tells me that there's a side to Mugi she never shows to her friends (either because she doesn't want to get angry with the, or they simply don't offend her to such extreme extent, if at all).

And yes, she did voice Fam Fan Fan, who can be described as a genius sky pirate who lacks experience, makes rash decisions, and has a brutal and honest tongue. Quote:

All in all, considering her desire to live a more normal life, I guess it can be said her kindness and selflessness (i.e. the side of Mugi we mostly see) are extended from this desire.
