K-ON! episode 13, a winter day
Sunday, June 28th 2009

This K-ON! episode is not more than an extra. As my friend Hippo had pointed to me before, most drama in K-ON! had been finished in the last episode. This particular episode is somehow slow paced.


The story begin with all members of light music club gathering in the music rooms. However it is very cold at the moment that Yui can't play her guitar. She tried to play by wearing her gloves, but of course it is not possible. Later Yui invited everyone to come to her home and eat nabe, however it seems that everyone have something to do.


Mugi is having a part time job in the fast food restaurant she, Ritsu and Mio visited before (and later after) Yui joined the club. It seems that she seriously dreamed about saying the phrase "would you like fries with that?".


Ritsu found a letter in her mailbox with "No matter how cold it is on winter days, I am happy. When I see your breath draw white as you run, I think of how parted hair fits you so well. But I want to see how you look with your frontal hair down" written on it. She tried the hairstyle mentioned in the letter later and discover that it is somehow strange. Anyway she had promised her little brother to go to a movie, so she have to forget about the letter for the time being.


Azusa is taking care her classmate's kitty because her classmate have to go somewhere. The cat mime whatever Azusa did, so Azusa decided to call the kitty Azu-nyan #2. Somehow this remind me about a manga written by Fujiko F. Fujio title P-Man where the second P-Man is a chimp and was called P-Man #2. Not sure if this is something usual in Japan.


Mio went to the beach looking for idea for her new song lyrics. I am not sure whether Mio can hear the whisper of the wind or not, but of course writing something in a windy place is not going to be easy.


The clueless Hirasawa-sisters went to supermarket to buy the nabe ingridients. I think Yui have what it takes to become an inventor, she is not afraid of trying new things even when people think that the idea is basically flawed. The important thing is not your initial idea, but how the idea evolve experiment after experiment. If you don't repeat the same mistake more than once, you might end up with something new.


Anyway the Tainakas had finished watching the movie. The boy in the picture above is Ritsu's little brother. If I read what written in the ending credit right, his name is Sou (聡). Which meaning is wisdom, intelligence or sharpness. Later Sou was called by his friend to go to another friend's house, leaving Ritsu alone pondering whether the letter she recieved earlier is a love letter or something else.


While Ritsu is pondering about the letter she received earlier, Mugi had trouble in her workplace, Mio can't get any idea for new song lyrics and Azusa also having trouble with her kitty, Yui send the mail depicted above to all of them. The reaction vary between people but Azusa is surely not amused and decided to call Yui directly. Azusa told Yui that she is having trouble with the kitty. Yui promised to go to her place as soon as possible with Ui. In Azusa's home, she received replies from light music club members stating whatever they are doing at the moment.


The next day all club members meet in the usual place, while Mugi is working at that time. Mio asked Ritsu about her opinion on the song lyric she put on Ritsu mailbox. Ritsu who thought it was a love letter somehow feel embarassed and attack Mio. Nothing violent happen this time though.


Back in school the next day, the club members meet again in the music room discussing how the cold weather interfere with their practice. Mugi however doesn't have any problem with it at all because her body temperature is high ( actually she is more fit than Yui ). Yui even stated that she want to have one Mugi-chan in her home as well (the manga version also feature this scene).

Overall, I really like K-ON! and all the characters in it. I am going to miss them now that the series had ended. I really hope Kyoto Animation is going to make the second season for this. The first goal of light music club was to perform in Budokan and they have not achieved that goal yet.
