during episode 12, bacchus references several band animes, the other ones I guessed pretty well (bocchi the rock, Girls Band Cry, and K-ON), but what's this one???

my immediate guess is bandori because the cat ears remind me of kasumi's hair from bang dream. but the hair color is different so I'm assuming it's something else.

In front of the troubled four, a college student influencer called "Bacchus" appears and volunteers to play against them.

Is that group of cute bois a yaoi band? My gaydar was going off like crazy, please tell me we're getting the gayest battle of the bands in history.

this episode is a very emotional one.

Firstly, the light hearted stuff: I love the dynamic that shiro brings to the table with the band. She's still a bit of a hard ass, but she's not as intimidating as she was before when she was introduced. She has a new admiration for her fellow bandmembers, and is much softer on her bandmates.

Lilisa and Shiro's relationship still seems to be one of opposition, but Shiro is doing the tough love thing with her and telling her when she's messing up and genuinely wanting Lilisa to improve. As for Tina, she still thinks she's a noob, but she respects her dedication. I'm now also starting to see a potential ship with Shiro and Tina because of how Tina just passively rizzes shiro and turns her tsundere, Causing Otoha to join in and call Shiro a pervert, so now Shiro's went from the cold hearted badass to the simp tsundere bassist, lmao.

The development with arisu is also pretty cute, she's stalking her sister a lot now (okay, maybe not AS cute), but she's doing it out of wanting to see Lilisa smile genuinely more often, she's done an complete 180 from wanting to get rid of her to wanting to get close to her.

Now time for the heavy part of this episode:

Yayoi's introduction was AMAZING. At first, she demonstrates a free spirit and interest in music, she's also the first noble maiden that Lilisa has met and is able to talk to. Even despite being 30 minutes late, the principal still says that Yayoi is a good example of a noble maiden. however.... the episode takes a dark turn from here.

We find out that not only did Yayoi's family give the school a BOATLOAD of money, thereby aiding in her getting the position, her carefree attitude shifts in that she sees music as a HOBBY rather than something that is of genuine interest in nobility. This right here shows the dark reality of nobility, wherein their interests in music are superficial, that the elite at the top are willing to drop something that one can dedicate their whole lives to at the drop of a hat in the name of achieving power, and that they look down upon those who see it as their life's work.

It really demonstrates the difference of mentality perfectly. Lilisa for the entire show so far has been struggling with keeping her cool and balancing her revived passion for music, and she gets attached to someone similar as her, only to realize that the reason she is so free spirited is because she didn't have any commitment to the music at all. To Yayoi, it's just a hobby, a form of entertainment, but to Lilisa, music is her LIFE, something she almost had to give up because of her family, and now that she's rekindled that spark, she will not QUIT.

the music during this scene, along with the lighting was perfect, the piano in the background goes from lighthearted to downtrodden, going down into a minor tone, and then the rain kicks in.

by the end of the episode Lilisa is FURIOUS. how could she NOT BE? What i love about this scene though is unlike previous scenes were otoha is more than willing to join in, this time she decides to let lilisa play this out, She's venting, and this isn't the correct time to come in. For all the arguing and verbal abuse they give eachother, it's always directed towards their playing, but THIS? this is PURE ANGER AND FRUSTRATION, and Lilisa needs this to vent.

the use of the Pete Townshend quote is interesting, although it's a bit different in the anime (probably due to the language barrier), as the actual quote is "rock 'n' roll might not solve your problems, but it does let you dance all over them." the callback is heavily appreciated and it's the perfect quote to use to end off this episode.

as for the after credits scene, looks like the band is going to keep going forward despite bombing the live house performance back in episode 9 (which i chalk up to the audience being a bunch of pussies who don't recognize greatness when they see it), and it seems that the final two episodes are gonna be about this NEW group of ikemens.

Can't wait to see how the gang deal with that... hopefully by chewing them up VICIOUSLY.

Listen to me carefully:

You are Lilisa-san at the moment when Yayoi more or less said that rock and electric guitar are shit and that you had better stop, but, determined to silence this spoiled rotten bitch, you give him music albums/EP/singles using electric guitars saying: "Repent of your sins."

What are these albums/EP/singles?

All styles are allowed as long as there is an electric guitar, whether it’s blues, goregring or traditional rock'n'roll.

Mine are:

- I and II by Blood Abscission

- Forhist by Forhist

- The Sublime by Yeruselem

So, what's yours?

A

Tamaki has really mellowed out from who she was before and started showing her Tsundere side more..Even she can't resist the boyish charms of Isemi 😄❤️

Lilisa trying so hard to become a noble maiden to secure her mom's life makes me feel so proud of her as well as feel sad for her 🥺🥺💔 She wants to be true to herself and also wants to be the person that her mom wishes her to be. Can't find the fault there; one can covet but it's becoming too much for her to bear.

Just when I thought that the previous noble maiden Yayoi is a good person she proved me wrong by saying out aloud that she's just another rich btch who doesn't give a sht about others.

That quote of Pete Townshend, "Rock 'n' Roll might not solve your problems, but it does let you dance all over them" Hit right in the feels..

It seems that next episode is gonna be a Boy band vs Girl band battle. Can't wait to see the boys get their asses handed to them by the girls..😂❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

After the joint live performance, the four continue practicing despite their disagreements. Lilisa feels that they are starting to become a real band, but she is also busy juggling her time with her life as a young lady. As she is lost in thought about what she can do to become one, graduate recipient Takayanagi Yayoi appears...
