K-On! General Discussion Thread

[Ithekro]

Chapter 52 was the last one for Yui, Ritsu, Mio, and Mugi is High School. Then the manga toko a half year off, then started up again in two magazines, with Chapter 53 following Yui, Ritsu, Mio, and Mugi into college, and Chapter 54 following Azusa in her last year of High School.

So it has been odd chapters for the college girls (released the first week or so of the month) and the even chapers for the high school girls (released the last week of the month).

Chapter 65 should be released in a day or two in Japan.

Thanks for filling me in.

True about her modern keyboards. But she does play a Hammond B in the 2nd ED song. JPJ played one of those as a session player in the 60s. Don't remember if he played it in LZ.

Since they were a 4 piece band, they didn't use keyboards often, but I think LZ used multiple Keyboards,

In LZ they did use Hammond organs

The only time I can recall them using Korg, was the Korg Oasys 88,Korg X50 synthesizers during the Led Zeppelin back in 2007 reunion

Spoiler for .:

I wounder what gave Kakifly the Idea to add in the Korg Triton Extreme.

I don't really count the ED's because they're not canon...yet(?) But in any case that's not her primary instrument.

The Korg Trinity and Triton series were both quite revolutionary keyboards for their time and gained quite a bit of fame. It's not too surprising, I think.

Why would they stop this cash cow? Wouldn't be surprised if K-ON ended up getting Dragonball'd.

[Ithekro]

Well it would be different to follow characters though college and onto supposedly professional music careers (to get to those ED videos)

Since the story comes from an anonymous poster on a chat board, and one who admits to being a stalker (ie, a crazy asshole) at that, I wouldn't put much trust in the source. There's a chance it's true, of course, but what the hell does it even matter? If Toyosaki got herself a man, good for her. And if it happens to be Tom-H@ck, well... that's actually pretty cool. K-On couple!

its a shame how people stalk and harass these people for daring to have a life. stalker are scary

I wonder if they would be anatomically correct, and if so, whether my guess are correct.

[GreatTeacherKen]

I wonder if that guy who molested the Mio car will show up to molest these figures?

[Yui Is My Wife]

Is there going to be an Event Celebrating Yui-chan's birthday in Toyosato on the 27th of November this year, or are they going to just mix it together with Azunyan's like they did last year?

If there will be a celebration this year, Heck Yes I'm Going.
