While Tina wants to join the band as she yearns to be like Lilisa, Shiraya doesn’t think she has what it takes. Even after several days of practice, Lilisa doesn’t want to give up on her.
From last time, Shiraya heard enough as she told Lilisa to get rid of Tina. So, how did we get here? During the rehearsal, Tina becomes so overwhelmed that she can’t play. However, despite being overwhelmed by the music-playing skills, they are giving their all. However, she has to make sure that her desire to play rock music is not a mistake as she attempts to play.
Eventually, it leads Shiraya to stop the music and have Lilisa remove Tina. It’s funny how Tina says as the Usami that Tina was nervous and she will do better next time. It’s funny how Shiraya is relentless as she grabs the bunny plush and tries to strangle it. Tina begs her to stop. Still, Shiraya knows that Tina has never listened to rock, let alone learned how to play the keyboard.
While Tina eventually resigned herself to giving up, as Shiraya talked crap about Tina’s keyboard playing, Lilisa grabbed Tina’s wrist as she didn’t want her to give up yet. After all, she remembered when Lilisa had to give up the guitar as her mother said she no longer needed it. Lilisa doesn’t want Tina to feel the same regret she did when she gave up the guitar for her mother’s sake. She convinces Shiraya to reconsider and give Tina five more days. Otoha, of course, went along while Shiraya warned Tina she would judge her harshly. After all, Lilisa said she was in it to win it and would not leave her bandmates.
Lilisa eventually realizes she has revealed her true self in front of Tina. Of course, Tina doesn’t seem to mind Lilisa’s true self as it suits her more than her rich lady self. That said, Otoha has a plan to make it work to make the music playable for Tina by taking the complicated notes out. That way, it makes it easier to play along and fewer chances to make mistakes.
While Tina manages to play well without any mistakes after 5 days of effort, Shiraya is still unsatisfied. She already had her mind made up in the limbo as Otoha recalls seeing a live performance with Shiraya. She wants to get rid of Tina as she saw through Otoha’s plan of cheezing it through by making the music simple. Eventually, Shiraya concedes after Tina intends to reveal her true self like her bandmates. At least she defrosted a little, although it’s funny how she strangles Usami after she says Tina will do her best at the Battle of the Bands competition.
As for the day of the competition at the live house, Lilisa reveals her getup as Tina, still wearing a trench coat. Tina is wearing different clothing and is not wearing shapewear at this time. Tina feels that the clothes that Lilisa has her wears are too small as they reveal her well-endowed breasts. Shiraya doesn’t seem to like Lilisa’s outfit. Of course, Lilisa wants to use Tina’s well-endowed chest to hide her true identity and wants Tina to make her hair more girly.
The funny thing is that the rival band, Bitter Ganache, seems more fixated on Tina’s enormous breasts and wants to feel them. Yep, thankfully, Shina interrupts them before they can touch them. Thankfully, they didn’t know Tina’s true identity yet. The funny thing is that Bitter Ganache seems overconfident that they have this in the bag. The question is, can Lilisa and Otoha win against Bitter Ganache? We’ll see next time.
