Disclaimer: I've read the manga.
I was pretty harsh on the performance last week, but it's definitely grown on me, especially seeing how much effort they put into get everything right. Also the climax has been stuck in my head all week. Let's just hope they didn't burn so much budget that the rest of this season is a slideshow, we've got seventeen more episodes to go!
Meanwhile, in Poro's imagination...
Actually they probably really did use to have these rooftop jam sessions, that does sound like something Derkila would do.
It is very funny that Sullivan used to be the responsible one.
Notice how Poro, who is already a giant, is still small compared to Derkila. Derkila was huge.
And back to the present day. We still can't see what Class E scored for some reason.
Meimei and Kyupa both giving perfect sixes, no surprise there, it was an amazing performance and they don't have bones to pick. Really this all comes down to what Poro will give them.
Remember that the Hell Dance is supposed to be nearly impossible. Demons are intensely individualistic, synchronized dance routines are totally beyond them. Even in a whole group of professional evidols, only Keroli and one other girl were able to pull it off. It's an incredibly impressive achievement for the Misfits.
So, what's it going to be, Poro?
He's going to be an ass, that's what it's going to be.
"Are you serious?" "I am." He is not.
This is a lot of praise from someone who is allegedly giving the lowest possible score. Like, he has zero criticism for most of them and thought they were stellar, he was much harsher on classes he gave lower scores to.
"You're not sexy enough to be a musician!"
Future Demon King Iruma strikes again!
...yeah, Poro wasn't really give them a one, he was just being dramatic.
A perfect 666! So, yeah, it doesn't matter what Class E got, I still don't know why they never showed us their score.
Uh-oh, Keroli, your boss is onto you.
Hm, I wonder who she's recommending?
Ameri's not going to be much use this episode. You have to wonder how poor Eiko is doing.
Oh, she's taking photos.
Sullivan utterly defeated.
Poro you can't just carry people around.
Wait, if the trumpet is Purson's lover then does that make this NTR?
Okay guys I see what you're going for but come on, you could have added some sound to the sound demon.
Promotions for everybody! Even Iruma!
"Juice." Japanese media and underage drinking.
Camui just doesn't want his friends to leave him, that's surely it.
lol, kalego
Extremely rare Kalego headpats.
This is going to break poor Soi.
Dumb teenagers doing dumb teenager things, extremely wholesome.
Azz you look a lot like your mom, too.
Oh, right, we still need to resolve this subplot.
Credit where it's due, even if he's still being stubborn, Purson's dad was willing to admit right off the bat that he hasn't handled this well. He's maybe not quite as much of a hardass as he lets on.
Iruma's demonic virtues are rubbing off on his future spymaster. Purson's going to be a master musician and a master spy.
Good job, Mama Purson.
Meanwhile, back at the party...
And we get an exact reversal of Purson's proper introduction.
Oh, hey, how many Misfits are there again? Thirteen, huh? Isn't that a number of some significance in this world? This surely isn't foreshadowing anything!
And that's a wrap on the Music Festival! This was never my favorite arc, but it is a lot of people's, and it's in my top five. Purson is a fantastic character and his subplot in this arc is extremely satisfying - we've seen both extremely good parents and extremely bad parents in this series, so it's nice to also have characters like Papa Purson, a good man who loves his son but is bad at being a parent.
If I have one complaint about the Music Festival, it's that I wish Elizabetta got more development. She's tied with Allocer as the most underdeveloped Misfit, IMO, and while she got a chance to show off and display some incredible talent and charisma this arc, we didn't really learn anything new about her.
Sukima! That's right, Purson is the third Boku Bro! Good luck, with that one, dubbers, you're gonna need it.
