1. Sounds like Sunshine of Your Love, so Eric Clapton?

3. Tony Iommi
4. Err, looks kinda generic to me, and can't recognize the riff...

4. should be Pete Townshend of The Who. Notice the tailpiece of the guitar. See here.

I'm surprised Coalguys hasn't snatched this up yet.

Lots of cuteness going around. Mostly Mugi and Yui, with Azusa and Mio at times...Ritsu's on her tangents.

Mugi's so cute when see gets excited about shopping what I guess is sort of like a Super Walmat or something.

Yui playing with powertools is funny.

Some serious guitar history or something for the music fans...I'm guessing (no subs yet)....but still....that's a lot of yen (100,000?)....Yui's imagination is still weird. (Really? being hit by a fan of money by Ui?)

Ohhhh, scary Sawako...mmmm.

Yui's weird...still.

Also a turtle for Azusa?

The episode itself seemed to have a plot at least...though there was some more mindless going around parts I don't recall from the manga...but those where rather cute.

Spoiler for episode:

The supermarket-like shop they went to is the one called 'ho-mu sentaa(home center)'. It has no raw food(meet and vegetable), and there are many DIY kits and furnitures.

This shop is 'home center Ko-nan', located at Takaragaike-Kamitakano in Kyoto city. (kyoani traces many sights in Kyoto city for this anime's back ground, so you can visit this shop.)

They *are* doing this series. They've already released episode 1.

I'm a bit surprised that there aren't 2 or 3 groups doing it like last season but its still early in the game.

edit: oops, Chihiro has also picked it up.

I meant they haven't done episode 2, even though raws are floating around. Sorry I wasn't clear.

[Key Board]

I was a little worried after episode 1 but episode 2 was great

[jenthehen]

Looks like it's up: http://coalguys.com/

[germanturkey]

meh, Yui is getting more and more annoying.

[Ezilled]

This, perhaps, the first time I've ever laughed so hard while watching this show. Yes, I would gladly slap Yui on her face if she says so. Nice added touch on the aquarium and hardware store with lots of neat backgrounds. I can't help but to think that KyoAni didn't lazy around on animation department. Also, looks like KyoAni will pull another heavy writing on the next episode as well. Can't wait for it.

I'm predicting maid cafe event on the 4th episode.

[Dr. Casey]

Heavy writing?

I liked this episode. The little moral dilemma about telling Sawako the true price of the guitar was pretty interesting, and the way that they handled things less than honestly. Oh, and this bit of dialogue...

Mio: B-but... five million...
Ritsu: Calm down. You added an extra zero.



Nice work on expressions this season, too. I liked Azusa's at 12:23.

[touge-n00b]

LOL @ Yui being a money masochist.

[jenthehen]

OMG YES - I think I loved everything about this episode. It was hilariously funny during the whole "lying about the money" incident ... I lol-ed. I <3 Ritsu more and more and NEXT EPISODE = RITSU EPISODE YESSSS!

So far, the three main groups of last year (CoalGuys, Chihiro and Frostii) have released at least one episode, with CoalGuys (again) leading the way.

Anyway, this episode was hilarious. A lot better than the first episode.

Yui is getting sillier and sillier. But I guess that's what I love about her. Also, she's a money-masochist, who'd have thought?

[SaintessHeart]

500,000 yen = USD$5358.50.

Usually famous guitars (Les paul, Fender) don't go beyond $1000 - $2000, unless it's a vintage.

And Mugi doesn't seem affected by the money.....

Oh wait, what is $5000 to her?

It would probably take another two zero for her to raise an eye brow.

[Pachael]

At this rate we're going to get 1 manga chapter per episode...

.. and Mugi's tea set cost more collectively than the guitar, so she's not that fussed over the dosh

[kitten320]

Finally saw the subs! It was a great episode with good humor! and most importantly it was motly around Ritsu^^

She almost became hero


Don't remember such chapter in manga where Ritsu wanted to shine... did I miss it?
Well anime is good at extra material and since it will be Ritsu centred, I can't wait to see it

[Friday]

Spoiler for The Darkness Returns:

Mugi enjoys another new experience

[Jimmy C]

All I have to say is, why yes, Yui, the cake is a lie!
