episode 7 was totally awesome. Bon (Richie) finally did something himself.. I was afraid I'd start not liking him but this was great

And you Mirko, have just gotten some great material for that gay amv :D

Arguably one of the best animes this year. Just finished catching up and it's getting better and better. You never really see such a growth in friendship in an anime, so it's really refreshing. How they act and sometimes when they fight remind me a lot of how I am with some of my friends. xD Everything about the music is amazing, and it's always switching between friendship, love, and music, keeping each new episode a little fresher than the last.

I do agree that some of the scenes with Sen and Bon felt kind of yaoi-ish, but let's just call that a bromance instead :sweat:

Oh snap, what an episode. Although......
Spoiler :
This show could really do without Yurika. She is just damn crazy in every shape and form.
And not to mention THAT END. :uhoh:

Yep episode 8 was pretty intense. I didn't expect this kind of development that fast (but if it's a 13 episode series then that's normal xD)
Spoiler :
Does Sentaro will be the only one without a girl in the end ? :awesome:

Hmm.. Looks like I need to watch this because of the yaoi implications because everyone is saying such good things about it :up:

I've never watched Nana, but from what I've heard, this anime is probably the male counterpart to that. Friendship + music = awesome show!

You had me a yaoi. :rofl:

Haha, I watched the first two episodes. This is something that I think I'm really going to enjoy immensely. I love the music, the art style is something unique distintive, and Sentaro reminds me a ridiculous amount of someone that I know in real life. XD

YESSSSSSSSSSS, SO MUCH YES.
Holy crap, every second of this episode was amazing as hell. #1 anime of the year, most definitely.
