Azusa was too cute with the nekomimi. I'm very pleased with her personality as well. She's certainly mini-Mio, but somehow she was even more serious - no doubt because she hasn't had Ritsu constantly dulling the edges. It's kind of sad how the club is so unfocused and so if you want to actually play and learn new stuff in music, it's largely wasted time. But at least it's good wasted time like Mio had to concede.
It was nice to finally get an ep where Mio didn't steal all the attention.
But damn they really should play more and fool around less. I hope Azusa will accept achieving that as her holy mission, despite being a junior.

Azu-nyan > Mio > Yui > Ritsu > Yuri eyebrows.
Yes, I am a lolicon, but that is not the point.
Azu-nyan is such an awesome cute character even if she is the most normal out of the bunch. She balances them out.
Azu-nyan: "Even though these bands are better than the K-ON band... why?"
Answer: It's because unlike those other bands, K-ON is made up of moe characters, which you will augment soon enough.
Mio: "She has managed to play like this for a year."
Translation: "She has only been playing for a year."
+
Mio: "She is the type that plays games without reading the manuals."
Translation: "She does this through instinct, not theory and practice"
=
SHE IS A FUCKING GENIUS.
Translation: Yui is a fucking genius.

Oh my God, I had an incredibly enoyable experience with that episode.
I won't even try to explain, loved it.

Her wierd atitude balance out this awesome trait. nobody's perfect eh?

Man, I felt sad now that someone's stolen Mio's focus. :(, even if she's Mio 2.0
I was hoping they'd break out with a different song this time, so I was slightly disappointed when it was still the Stapler song. Interestingly, she noticed Mio is skilled, something which wasn't really elaborated on in earlier episodes, while the fact that Mugi's an excellent pianist has been largely ignored.
Finally, if Ritsu's drumming's rushed, it makes her the weakest link, according to Azusa's evaluation. Only reason she's club leader is because she thought of the idea first.
It was funny how one character's addition can completely trod on all the others. If she kept to herself, she'd take Lead Guitarist from Yui at least for a while, unless Yui takes sessons. She's already the primary costume model, and trashing tea time would just make Mugi feel rejected. Perhaps I like the original four too much, so this had a slight negative effect on me. If negative is too strong a word, then I at least cannot fully appreciate Azusa's awesomeness. Maybe I'm just sharing Mio's jealousy.
Still, a very enjoyable ep like all the others. I can't say I really want to see another beach camp. I'd really rather they move on to something more constructive, assuming this series really will end at episode 13.
PS: I noticed before that the girls in shinta's sig are ordered by height. I notice now that the girls in shinta's sig are similarly ordered by cup size.
-
It was never about height.
Azu-nyan, while I freaking love her, will only be able to take lead for 1 performance, since Yui and her magic ears and mystical fingers will steal her skillz once she hears it.
-
Funny episode this was with loads of cuteness around the corner, especially when Sawako brought along a whole barrage of cosplaying clothes with cat and bunny ears.

Couldn't have put the latter part better myself. I like how Azusa and Yui seemed to really hit it off the first half of the episode, and even by the end, while Azusa likes Mio's serious attitude, Yui still seems to be making to most headway weaning Azu-nyan onto their evil ways.
As such:
Yui > Azu-nyan > Mio > Mugi > Ritsu > Sawa-chan (costumes are good, but she needs a new gimmick)

K-ON! Original Soundtrack
-
Episode 10
[CoalGuys] K-ON! - 10 [A159E969]
250mb because they batched something with it.
OK THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT ONE OUT OF ALL: PLEASE TAKE 10 MINUTES OF YOUR TIME AND WATCH THE NEW SERIES WE’RE PRODUCING. IT WILL BE BATCHED WITH K-ON FROM NOW ON. The name is 黒人の王 (Kokujin no Ou). It’s highly entertaining and fun to watch! If you enjoy K-ON, you’ll enjoy that too! We put a lot of effort into producing this video, so please watch it with your utter most sincerity. Thanks!
Don't bother with the vid that comes with it, unless you want to hear some dude ramble on and on. I'm hoping that they don't batch that in every week..
-
So Yui has perfect pitch.
Genius indeed.
No amount of practice can get you what she already has. She just needs some common sense (like practicing with a slow tempo until you get the hang of it) and someone patient to teach her (thank god for Azu-nyan who also plays the G). She will most likely surpass Azu-nyan's skills before the year ends, mainly because she can leech off of Azu-nyan now.
The rest of the episode felt like the OP, recycled with Azu-nyan added in. I love Azu-nyan though. Not only is she loli (+9000 points for me!), but she also lacks the cowardly side that Mio has, something which I never liked. Azu-nyan with her hair down and in swimsuit was great.
All of a sudden, I feel Mio is overshadowed by Azu-nyan, at least for me. I kinda got tired of her really fast, even faster than how I usually change my current favorite character.
-
The batched in video was certainly worthless. I kept waiting and waiting for something interesting to actually happen, clicking the slider to jump forward, but it was indeed nothing more than just some whoever dude blathering endlessly.
Azusa has for sure overshadowed Mio these past couple of episodes. Maybe that's a good thing and I certainly have nothing to complain about with Azusa. She could be Mio's little sister but still she's significantly different. It's also funny how she keeps thinking the seniors must be amazing musicians yet at the same time is disgusted with their lack of enthusiasm for practicing.
Lastly I have to approve Mugi's family's choice of a travel destination...
-
Well the whole training camp idea certainly isn't new, but I don't feel it was recycled. Rather, it was a good to see how everyone's getting along after 1 year. Certainly, things haven't changed a lot, with Yui and Ritsu strangely in tune again and all, but we did learn little bits and pieces.
Mugi skyrocketted for me this episode. From her reaction, she most certainly did not place those items there last time after all (her reaction towards her servants was great, much different from her usual well-mannered self).
Classy black onepiece was hot, but the white was cute too :o
Besides Mugi, Yui was the other person who got significant character development here. I have to say, I never imagined her to be the one practicing. It would have been Mio, if anything. Gifted, but still practicing like she's not (to a limited capacity) just makes her all the more likable.
Azu-nyan is certain shadowing Mio. The two seem to alternate in the spotlight I think. In particular, she's taken over Mio's position as the "one who has the most fun" at camp.
I didn't expect Ui to be a bit of a sis-con herself either.
As for why we never see any practice, I think we've come to an answer. They're saving all the songs for actual performances, to my slight disappointment.

I had an image with Kraco waiting at the airport shouting
"Mugi-chan! Mugi-chan! Mugi-chan!" :D
Somehow that ep was a rehash done too soon.
Ok Mugi has that one, bigger than last year's, and not even the one she wanted... stressing even more the fact they'll have to cope with it.
The Boat scene was to be...
the "I was the one who enjoeyd herself the most" with Ui was cute.
It wasn't as entertaining as it has been up to now.

Actually I think it made sense. Not only does it suit Yui's personality to go to practice at odd hours but also when she has got nobody else around distracting her. It's just like her to be unable to practice when they should be practicing and then suddenly want to practice when people normally sleep after a full day.

You bet! It would be a small price for a piece of cake.

Unfortunately, I see Mugi coming on a private plane to be picked up by a limousine straight to a newly purchased resort :(

Tss Tss Tss, an uber trained fanboy would be on the Tarmac at the right time to be seen and heard when she goes down the stairs and before she enters the limousine ;)
Ui not recognizing tanned Azusa got a grin from me.
-
Yay for tanned Azusa. Yes to Yui! Great episode and a relaxing one to boot.

I was starting to suspect Yui had it (it would have explained her ability to play anything back when she hears it), but there wasn't any definitive evidence until now. This outright confirmed it.
I liked the stranded skit between Ritsu and Yui better this time around.
I guess the parts with Mugi tearfully calling her parents (or butler) to take all of the boats and loungechairs away was one of my favorite parts. I also note she once again mentioned her love for jello in her sleep.
But the prize goes to Yui's cartoon-version of the infamous KyoAni Tears(tm) when she was cutting the onion. I couldn't help but immediately think of Ushio, Nagisa, Mai, and Misuzu with those blubbery tears spilling out of their eyes. Given the situation though, I laughed thoroughly this time. They even fall off of her hamster cheeks in the exact same spots they do in the various drama series.

I like this :D
Azu-nyan's Mio 2 factor came to a climax in the bathtub scene. Looked like a before and after comercial.
Btw what's with all the Anti-Muginess on this thread? She's adorable!
This episode was perfect except for the lack of some more boobs ( or lack of ) jokes, especially since Mio's giant rack is filled with infinite possibilities for more of those
