| Drama in K-On!? Never see the day lol I thought it was strange to see Ritsu get jealous of Mio and Nodoka, though. But it was a good episode. |
| Cartoons and anime is my reality. |
| So the band name really is After-School Tea Time, eh? I mean, it's really cute. HAHA. I have guitars and I normally don't play them but if I did I'm pretty sure that I'd end up like Yui. The drama totally threw me off because I"ve just been following the manga even though I know that they change certain things to maintain the episode length. I understand the jealously, though. At least Ritsu was able to bounce back. Now it's Yui's turn to get sick! HAHA. Can't wait for the Ui scene. |
| Ah poor Yui ... don't know how to take care of an expensive guitar huh :') Looks like Ritsu was getting a bit jealous of Mio and her friendship with Nodoka but it was resolved pretty nicely. Except well now it looks like Yui's sick ... oops :P They finally managed to hand in the form and their band name is definitely uh ... descriptive of most of their club activities at least XD Also wait next episode's the final one?! I thought there were 13 episodes ... what o_O |
| Probably my least favorite episode because of the drama. Looking forward to their performance though. |
 “Even if the attention isn’t forever, I’ll keep singing.” |
| AHH DON'T FIGHT THIS ANIME WAS SUPPOSED TO BE CASUAL |
| Not a fan of this episode tbh, the drama felt really off. |
 |
| Thought the band was about to break up there! |

| Good episode as always. ...but I wonder if I'm the only one who was irritated by the guitar shop worker's ass kissing to Tsumugi? I mean, I get it - and one is normally nice to the owners of their establishment, but I know a lot of business owners who would be offended by such blatant brown-nosing. I mean really ... that guy was pathetic, I'd probably be keeping my eye on him if I owned that store, because he gives the vibe that he's up to something, and also that he's a little too liberal with the stores stock and services. Did I take this too seriously? haha ...I can't help it, that behavior bothers me regardless of whether I see it in person, or in anime. Almost nothing rubs me the wrong way quite like someone sucking up to someone else - ulterior motives to the extreme, obviously. Insincere. Untrustworthy. The urge to fire this guy would be more than I could handle. |

| So everything from the previous concert got recorded even the moment when Mio fell down. Too bad for Mio, Azusa saw everything. Here once again Ritsu forgetting to fill up the auditorium usage application. Looks like Azusa is the new secretary of their club. Funny how Yui takes care of her guitar in a wrong way. Expected Tsumugi to cover up the cleaning expenses of Yui's guitar. The left handed guitars were really cool. Hoping that Mio can get one of those. This episode seemed realistic to me. It's pretty normal for a friend to feel jealous and lonely. Didn't expect the reason why Ritsu stopped coming by lately was because of a fever. I guess Sawako-sensei name their band in the end. Looking forward to their culture festival concert.  |
| So, where do I start? Let me be honest with you, I shed tears watching this episode. Not that there's a sad or happy scene in particular, but because of how fucking good this episode is. Most of the first half is build-up to the event happening in the second half, but it's so vague I barely noticed it. And then there's the second half where the infamous turning point occurs, the ever so called "characters change in a very subtle way". I never believed it in the first place, but this show manages to slap me in the face so hard. It certainly lives up to the uwasa. I love how this show portrays emotions without even showing anything blunt. You can see the disappointment of Ritsu right off the bat when she is constantly bantering Mio tho ended up getting turned down every single time. It really is masterful directing skill. This episode is amazing and perfect it left me in awe. 100/10 can't even imagine how S2 could be better than this |
I think Yui will become an extremely cute mother and wife. |
| I dunno, the drama was really bad, like what was even the reason Ritsu started acting like that, plot-device? (her cold was badly introduced too). Whole episode had horrible writing and I think whoever tried to add some crisis before the concert did very mediocre job. Well, I guess one failed episode doesn't make whole show but they are certainly starting pointlessly running in circles with no invention so far and I hope it doesn't get any worse. |
| Mio might've been the one who ended up being separated from the main party but Ritsu was the one who got very jealous because of it. I had thought that the guitar being all messed up was going to be the big pinch of the episode but it was actually a red herring. Ritsu trying to mess around with Mio like she normally does but without the latter enjoying any of it was really painful to watch. I felt so bad for Ritsu that I was so relieved that she didn't go to school only because she was sick after all. Thank goodness all that awkward tension was gone. Yui's the one with the cold this time, oh my. |
 |
| The drama didn't fit us into the story so much, it was good that it ended early. Funny the narrative as a whole, the credit goes to all the characters, including the character of Sawako. |
 |
| Oh look, drama in K on! Pointless drama ofc. After-School Tea Time is the name lmao. |

| Azunyan going nyan nyan was really cute. Mio proves again how kind she is and makes her so lovely 5/5 |
| Hot take: this episode enhanced my appreciation for Ritsu. Like, yeah, the drama was kind of bad, but it shows more to her character than less-retarded Yui. |

| Ritsu forgetting time give the form wasn’t and isn’t funny- |
  |
| Mio and lefty fair was cute. |
 |
| absolutely tanoshii if i do say so myself. wow 11 episodes and they've managed to almost blaze through an entire year in the k-on universe in about an estimated total 264 minutes. honestly wish 2020 would go at the same rate lmao |
 "yabe." |
| mio at the music store and being psyched up because of the bass for lefties lmao - she's so cute. mugi's influence on literally everyone though just by her thicc eyebrows. i was sad to see mio and ritsu fight but i'm glad they made up. it was so cute to see ritsu get jealous over mio hanging out with nodoka (please show more nodoka). ritsu getting a cold probably means she's overworked herself awsh. however, the end though with yui catching ritsu's cold ahh. yui >.< |
| Not a big fan of the drama surrounding Ritsu, but this episode was pretty enjoyable anyway. |
| Genuine character conflicts? Actions that have consequences? Is this my precious K-On? |
 |
| like the way this episode went, but some of the comedy scenes were lacked with basic stuff... i thought there will be little more great conclusion, but if fine the way it is. |
| So Yui never took care of her guitar properly, lmao |
 |
| this was a more of a ritsu episode for me >< im glad that the anime is getting into more touchy moments ~ it was sorta unnecessary though, but the episode was enjoyable to watch ~~ |
 |
| Crisis episode Well first was the Yui thing that was solved quickly about her guitar, and the second thing that I think was the main thing was the conflict between Ritsu and mio that was solved, and now the problem is going to be Yui because she has a cold xD, what are the girls going to do? It was good the chapter Pd: The next one is supposed to be the end of the season? I thought it was going to be in chapter 13 |
| Yeah... that episode ain't it at all. Sloppy drama and just... a flat episode as a whole. K-On went from terrible in my first watch to average in the first few episodes (a pretty big upgrade) but it's been slipping again with these latest few episodes. Didn't care much for the Mio-Ritsu tense drama like that, and it concluded very fast too so the whole thing felt like a waste of time for me with a very weak buildup too. |
| I was actually expecting more "drama" from Ritsu and how she and Mio aren't as good friends as they used to be but I guess everything was just because of a fever, which I still like. Lmao Yui. I NEED MORE RITSU + MIO SCENES. |
Come on man,where is that Noragami season 3 masterpiece.We want it, Bones! |
| Azusa saw Mio's pantsu scene. x3 More Drama. This time it was Ritsu and Mio who had an argument. Yui, you should take better care of your guitar... Ho-kago Tea Time. I think that's the perfect name for their band. :) |
 |
| Holy fuck this episode was intense, got me feeling nervous lmao. |
 The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama. Feeling half happy, half sad. Kawaii waifus and precious best girls <3333 |
| It was quite interesting to see that part of Ritsu and Mio relationship, Ritsu with jealous wasn't really something I was expecting but it makes sense, specially considering Mio is her childhood friend and the one she probably loves the most. It's good to see some drama and conflicts every now and then, I hope they use this feature wisely in the future. Overall very nice episode. |
  Grant me one hour on love's most sacred shores To clasp the bosom that my soul adores, Lie heart to heart and merge my soul with yours |
| *world about to end* Mugi: Let's have some tea |
| Ritsu and Mio so adorable. Don't be angry at your friends. It hurts when your friends do things like that. I felt Ritsu's emotions there. |
 |
| It was so nice seeing Ritsu and Mio making up at the end. |
| Weird abrupt drama from Mio and Ritsu. Jealousy from Mio being closer Nodoka yet ultimately for calling her Dumb is understandable from the childhood friend Ritsu. Rather, as funny as their dynamic is, Ritsu frequently teasing Mio could be annoying to a person, but worse is Mio's result of violence by hitting her for it. Realistically, no matter the banter and comfort in that relationship by people who don't mind it, that's a toxic relationship. So, Ritsu being upset and pissed at Mio could make a lot of sense. Unfortunately, this part of this season presented like that without proper development was very poor in execution to present realistic drama in friendship from jealousy and insult. Probably and easily the worst episode of S1. Poor Ritsu. |
Mugi is so passive all the time, so it's incredibly powerful when she speaks up, way to go Mugi! Yuri or not, Mio and Ritsu sweet!   |
| An alright episode. Something like this was bound to happen with the group having some troubles. |
