The bully finally got what he deserved and this episode is the most satisfying one yet. Chiba delivered. Also Maho showing up in a Radiohead - Kid A shirt 😳 top tier waifu confirmed.

If a show can be good with average animation, you know it's done really well. This episode far surpassed the last one in terms of hype, entertainment and interaction. This was a feel good episode. I enjoy seeing the characters all support each other.

Finally the singing, Koyuki sings now, but mahn we didn't get to hear the full song haha. still very interesting. I'm not so for the plot but the pacing this episode was ok, a very interesting episode indeed.

Episode Context

Coming off the high-stakes energy of episode 9's pre-live intensity, 'FACE' serves as a deliberate cooldown that redirects focus toward interpersonal dynamics, particularly Koyuki and Saku's deepening bond. Sitting at the series' rough midpoint, this episode bridges the band's early formation arc with the personal and artistic challenges ahead. It directly sets the stage for the 'Summer Holidays' stretch, where individual character journeys will shape Beck's trajectory as a group.
