I think the issue with the changes to the story is that Kumiko and Mayu need to be neck and neck for tension purposes but the Greek tragedy twist where Kumiko and Reina get fucked up by their own ideals of meritocracy makes a lot more sense if Mayu is definitely better than Kumiko. I do think that they've implied this season that Mayu is better at making the sounds that judges will want. But even so, considering Kumi and Mayu are roughly equal, Reina throwing it to Mayu because she will give them a 2% edge at nationals comes off as excessive. I actually think it would've been more interesting if this is what finally broke Reina's ideals and she voted for Kumiko and confessed later she thought Mayu was better.

It IS excessive. To me, that's the point. Human beings will cause each other huge amounts of pain over some stupid made up thing that often isn't even true.

Throughout S1 and S2 I was rooting for Reina and Asuka because I admired them as talented, ambitious characters. But now I realize I'm more like Kumiko, someone who may be somewhat capable but will never be able to beat those with actual talent. Kumiko isn't a bad performer by any chance, but she'll never match up to Reina's passion, or Mayu's skills which were honed by spending years at an elite school. Looking back, it's obvious Kumiko never stood a chance against Mayu, even though she gave her best. Like Kumiko, Mayu's victory made me realize my own mediocrity.

Kumiko was on equal footing to Mayu. It's pretty clear to me based on the sound in the audition. Taki Sensei thinks so too. Even Reina thought it was close.

>>268146663
Kumiko won because she gained the inner strength to stand for her beliefs and rise above her own emotions. She lost the soli because as much as she loves music, performing perfectly isn't at the heart of who she is, like for Reina - rather it's her sense of compassion and justice, her desire to support and stabilize others. Her whole arc with choosing a career revolves around her growing into that realization. In other words, coming to terms with her mediocrity in the area that she once thought was so important opened her mind to see where her true talent lies.

Don't focus on your mediocrity. Being "good" osn't the highest virtue. Let your knowledge of your mediocrity allow you to let the thing you're striving for go as a source of identity. Then you're free to find what can truly bring you fulfillment.

Kumiko was never on similar level with Mayu.
>But Sapphire said so
Pleb compared to Reina
>But Taki said so

>But the vote was 50/50
They're all mere mortals compared to Reina
Reina's opinion is all that matters. If the entire student body voted for Kumiko but Reina chose number one, Kumiko would've forfeited from the soli like Kaori did because Reina is the only one that's special in talent and can discern what commoners can't.
>>
>>268147736
That's complete bullshit. She is extremely talented at the trumpet, and at music in general, but the others are also very good as well. Sapphire is very talented and Taki is a highly trained professional. These kind of judgments are somewhat subjective as well.

I think Kumiko and Mayu should love each other

Alright I finally watched the episode after shitposting in these threads for the past few days.

I think there are two basic mistakes they made with the episode, and the rest was very well done.

1. Both Kumiko and Mayu sounded awful. Kumiko was technically weaker and had one or two parts where she majorly lost her timing. Mayu's play was so stale and soulless it actively sounded bad two or three times. I physically cringed when Mayu played and I was in disbelief when Kumiko played. Those were not the sounds of contest-winning euphoniums, full stop.

I do think Mayu's performance was better if only because she actually made it to the starting line (playing all her notes at the right times), but Kumiko's problems would be way easier to fix with some solid practice, while Mayu's are fundamental and would take years. From a contest point of view, Mayu's audition was better at that moment, but Kumiko was by far the better pick. That said, this is the best resolution for Mayu's arc and trauma. I do think it's crazy how split anons have been on their performances because it was really easy for me to identify the problems.

2. The reason given for Kumiko's loss is nonsense. "Hesitation about music school" makes no sense. Just say Mayu was better, or that Kumiko had no time to practice, or that Mayu's sound fit what Reina wanted more for the performance. I think that one line is so bad it undermines the entire season. What, Mayu wasn't hesitating about anything? Just stupid.

For that matter, I guess 3. The vote split was dumb, idek what to think of it. It's impossible to take the band seriously when the deciding factor between those godawful performances was one vote. It should at least have been like 55-45 for Mayu, with Reina voting for her normally. They were too desperate to get that big dramatic tiebreaker and it really drags things down.

Overall 99% great episode, but a truly great episode would need to try harder and squeak out that extra 1% :)
>>
>>268140868
She's so beautiful and soon to be Mrs. Taki
>>
>>268148021
Oh, another way to put it would be that Kumiko played the piece better "solo", while Mayu played it better "together". Kumiko's mistakes wouldn't have appeared if she was playing alone, but she stepped on Reina's toes as a duet. But if you ask who the better performer is, it's her 100% of the time. It's easier to get a skilled soloist to turn down their intensity than it is to turn someone into a skilled soloist.
>>
>>268148021
The performances were good man. IDK what you're smoking. I agree with you about the direction of all your assessments but not the degree of severity. Neither of them were that bad.
>>
>>268148021
>The reason given for Kumiko's loss is nonsense
Kumiko knows she's the worse player, she's just trying to rationalize it afterwards and making excuses to Reina. And it's less about "hesitation" specifically and more just that she's not cut out for professional musicianship, not in talent nor passion.
>What, Mayu wasn't hesitating about anything?
Well yeah, her entire arc has been to not be afraid of asserting herself and her talent, that she can be a bit selfish and immerse herself in the competitive spirit. She could finally play without regrets.
>>
>>268148021
i don't mean any offence btw, but as a non musical person, i can't understnad why everyone's analysing the performances so autistically. does it really matter that much that the recordings they used aren't 1to1 with the plot? they probalby just told the sound team "hey, we need two versions of the solo here, a good version, and a slightly worse version, cool?" and they recorded the parts and sent it in to the editing bay. Like, i trust you guys to know better about this stuff than me, and I also know im listening with $15 earphones, but does it really matter? if the characters in the show say that one was better than the other and there's no reason for them to lie canonically, fine, sure i believe you, why wouldn't i? ii know it's a show about band msuic, but kyoani didn't hide a conspiracy inside the performances. i just don't want you guys wasting your time like that nip on twitter measuring the decibel levels
I do agree that they should have just mmade Mayu a lot better than Kumiko, none of this "they're really close actually" business. just have Mayu be better and end it
>>
>>268148389
>her talent
Doesn't have one, sorry Mayufag.
>>
>>268148407
>made Mayu a lot better than Kumiko
It would be a completely pointless scene if Mayu was much better than Kumiko. If the level difference was like when Reina auditioned back then there would be no reason to go through any of that, in fact most of the season would be wasted since that was the main arc of this seasons story. Kumiko absolutely needed to be close enough to Mayu to have a chance of winning.
>>
>>268148389
>>268148021
You know, I just figured out how to put into words why I think Mayu's performance was worse.

She was playing it like you would play an inner harmony passage from a Percy Grainger piece, not a soli. Just playing exactly what is written in a flat and mechanical way is appropriate in a lot of compositions, but clearly not in this moment in this piece
>>
Did Reina mean she couldn't tell which one was Kumiko at the end or did she mean she knew it was Kumiko but picked Mayu instead?
>>
>>268148564
She knew it was Kumiko and still picked the better one.
>>
>>268148407
It matters. This show is in fact largely about music, and hearing the playing and performance tells you a lot about who these people are, and what they care about. It also tells you a lot about what is going on with regards to the decisions being made. Take the Reina and Kaori trumpet audition. How much more impactful is it to actually hear the difference, actually hear how while Kaori is actually really good, Reina is still a lot better. You get a chance to feel what the rest of the band feels. With this one, you get to feel what the band feels, feel what Reina feels, or even disagree with Reina like many do. You are there to make your own judgment along with all the characters.

If anything it shows that Kumiko is a far more rounded person than either Mayu or even Reina because she managed to come THIS close to beating Mayu while also dealing with management duties and keeping the band united with all the interpersonal drama and conflict.

IRL it's people like Kumiko who will more likely find success because of her leadership qualities and strong sense of empathy.

Wouldn't it be worse if Mayu played the solo and lost? Everyone would be blaming her, it would be exactly what happened to Canada in the movie version which is why it's odd that she didn't bring it up.

Anyway I still like the second one better and the timing issues should have been resolved with practice. It's unfair to have a faceoff with Mayu right after the regional where she had already been practicing extensively with Reina while Kumiko hasn't been able to at all.

No way would Reina be able to deal with people who are actually better than her. She's been the big fish in the small pond her whole life

The same thing if she ever actually fucked Taki-sensei. It would be a dog catching the car moment, he could never live up to the perfect fantasy she's built in her head

>The reason given for Kumiko's loss is nonsense. "Hesitation about music school" makes no sense.
I think people are taking this line too literally. It just represents Kumiko's doubts about her abilities as a musician and whether she could/should go pro or if she's better at taking a supporting role i.e. band president or eventually teacher, which has been implied for like half the season and we get a scene here where Taki basically tells her she's his heir. I agree it's a bit weak but I understood it when I was watching.

Kumiko literally faced less adversity and drama this season compared to what someone like Haruka faced. She had less responsibilities than someone like Yuuko who tripled up as President, Section Leader, and Drum Major during her final year. She even got a special setup thanks to Yuuko assigning THREE executive officers to split duties with instead of the usual two.

I don't get where this meme comes from where people think Kumiko was putting out fires this season
>Episodes 1: Intro episode. No drama.
>Episode 2: Suzume misunderstands that her sister is being treated unfairly but Tsubame clears it up herself. Barely a drama and Kumiko did nothing.
>Episode 3: Newbie 1st years are on the verge of quitting from being under Reina's scrutiny. Sari single-handedly keeps the 1st years from quitting thanks to her compassion and empathy. All Kumiko did was visit Sari while she was sick, again doing nothing to deal with the drama herself.
>Episode 4: Motomu drama with his dead sister. Motomu's Grandpa was completely understanding of his situation. All Kumiko did was be an eavesdropper and have Taki tell her Motomu's situation. Again Kumiko did nothing but listen to a situation that was already resolved not by her.
>Episode 5: Agata Festival here. No drama here except the fact that Kumiko blatantly lied to Mayu's face of why she couldn't go with her to the Festival.
>Episode 6: Auditions episode. The only drama was that Suzume got in over Sacchan and Micchan complained about it. Kumiko essentially did nothing but say "Trust the Process"
>Episode 7: Pool episode
>Epsiode 8-12: Nothing else but the Solo drama with Mayu. This is all completely self-inflicted drama by Kumiko because she couldn't be completely honest with Mayu about her feelings and she let the drama fester because she didn't do what she did in Episode 12 earlier of quelling the band by saying that Mayu was the right fit for the Solo.

Kumiko has easily been the worst of the 3 Buchous we've had.
>>
>>268150173
No, people are not taking this line too literally. The problem with this line is that it is an easy cop out for plot conveniency.

Any normal fucking human being wouldn't have a different sound all of the sudden because of a changed career plan when playing the soli together with your best friend for nationals is like THE hottest desire, which obviously in any realistic setting would overweight any so called "insecurity" in the sound.

Why should I buy that the hesitation about music school has a stronger influence than the desire to play with your best friend?

Kumiko is unironically getting carried.
>Gets a Senior class who are the first class to have experienced a full 3 years under Taki-sensei
>Gets a transfer student who comes from a High School with a Music Program that regularly competes in Nationals and wins Gold and was good enough to win the Solo parts regularly
>Gets competitive 1st years who come to Kitauji thanks to the boosted reputation from the previous years. Among them are people like Sari who are musical prodigies in their own right.

Meanwhile Haruka's Class was the very first year and essentially the beta test run of Taki's methodologies and Yuuko's Class was the most devastated by the Nozomi drama and devoid in numbers and talent.

Mayu should be the on apologizing to Kumiko for her narcissistic comments. Doesn't matter if she had a trama and "meant well," that is no excuse to say things like that repeatedly when it is clearly hurting the other person. As they say, the road to hell is paved with good intentions.
>>
>>268150786

Deserved when the said other person keeps making it uncomfortable after pushing meritocracy agenda and then throwing her to the wolves.

Kanade was 100% right that Mayu would've just forfeited if she really wanted to instead of causing all this drama

Stop shifting blame on me, you fucking moron. A lot of people didn't like what happened in episode 12 because of the retarded plot holes and this is something you should learn to accept. If you cannot take the fucking heat, you're more than welcome to go back to the shithole you came from, which is obviously reddit.
>>
>>268151261
>was just created for the sake of adding more unneeded drama.
It actually cements Kumiko's character development and makes her stronger for it. It shows that in the end she can stand by what she preached, she fully accepts the loss and doesn't bitch and whine about it like others did, despite it being only one vote off.
>>
>>268151380
>It actually cements Kumiko's character development and makes her stronger for it
this can also happen with her winning, though. Stop deluding yourself that this is the only way that can and will cement her character development. Because that already happened in the source material without her losing and without Reina being a fucking idiot.

You're discussing the anime that was 99% based on the source material which is canon. Stop coping. If hate the canon version that much, you might as well go and hate what the anime adapted from the source material as well.

This is not true. Anyone who did any sport would tell you that if you want to succeed at any competitive activity, the first step is always a proper state of mind. If you doubt yourself for whatever reason, it WILL show in your performance.
Have you personally never experienced being afraid of failing at something and then, when you actually had to make the attempt, you failed in the exact same manner you were afraid of in the first place?
Also Kumiko's problem was the fact that while she wanted to have hot musical sex with her gf on stage, at the same time she also wanted to win the gold. These two could potentially be mutually exclusive.

No it can't. The whole conflict was that Mayu was worried that Kitauji wasn't actually a meritocracy. Kumiko losing in the end, supporting Mayu 100%, and supporting Reina in choosing Mayu is what proves that Kumiko was serious about everything she built with Reina. Kumiko winning doesn't do any of that.

Not his fault with the roster he was given. Again, the Blue Ribbon Seniors of that year were devastated in numbers from the Nozomi drama compared to the dozens of Green Ribbon Seniors they had the year prior. It's obvious the talent pool was much less than the other years as some anons have pointed out that some players that were on the competition team in Chikai got MONAKA'd this year.

Honestly, he did his best with what he was given and made the most of the situation. Him picking Liz and the Bluebird as their performance piece is a genius move since he basically put all of their eggs into the Mizore basket since he recognized she was a musical genius autist and hoped that she would be enough to carry them.

Here's an interesting section from the new novel regarding the final audition Canada interrogates Mayu after the audition about if she was actually trying her best. Reminder that in the novel Kumiko actually won. Mayu is a bit avoidant about answering it but eventually says its possible Taki picked Kumiko over her since Kumiko's had the absolute desire to play with Reina while Mayu didnt and it would be better for the club if the new transfer student didn't beat the president everyone liked.

This is in contrast to the anime where Reina got the final decision which is why it ended up completely different. Even though everyone who watched the show thought Kumiko sounded "better" too.

>>268177679
The actual performances seem pretty controversial for everyone. There are comments on Kumiko's timing being late, Kumiko sticking out too much, Mayu being too passive, harmonising issues with both. I do think we're missing the point if we say we liked the second performance more as a justification for why Kumiko should have won, or that there's some greater story message about how being passive and letting the trumpet part shine, and just being an unassuming bass support part is actually the right way to play, instead of playing your own part with musicality. Wait, nevermind, that actually makes sense if you think about self sacrifice for the betterment of the band and the piece as a whole.

I'm not the anon who posted that image, I wouldn't have called it a confession either. But it is true that bringing that topic that they talked about in the bus just before Kumiko leaves the bathroom is a bit... weird.

>its possible Taki picked Kumiko over her since Kumiko's had the absolute desire to play with Reina while Mayu didnt and it would be better for the club if the new transfer student didn't beat the president everyone liked.
Loser mindset making excuses. Hilarious.

I thought the first performance sounded robotic, , meaning it was too perfect that it lacked feelings and didn't even try to harmonize with Reina's trumpet.

Performance 1 was very proper, like someone very Japanese and good at reading the kuuki. They instinctively knew that the judges would want the eupho to sound a certain way and not steal the trumpet's spotlight. But as a result it's dry and safe as fuck and doesn't accomplish anything special. There's like one time in the performance that the performer puts any personality into their play, somewhere around 1/3 of the way through when they let out a bit more burble.

The second performance is much more emotional and daring, and you can hear several times when it matches the trumpet perfectly in terms of intensity rather than playing background singer. But it also flubs the timing once or twice, most notably in the complex little passage near the end.

I think the most artistic way to think of it is that performance 2 represents the name of the series - Hibike! Euphonium!. It's a performance by a eupho who loves their instrument and wants the world to hear their sound. But the world doesn't want to hear the euphonium's hibike. The world has a very specific idea of what the eupho's role and sound should be. A trumpeter can be special, but not a eupho.

A bunch of audio dramas in case if you missed this.

thats kino
but if Mayu being the most genuine is when she plays like that, what does that say about her
>>
>>268186420
So what youre saying is reina chose to cut off kumiko, not wanting a partner that has the opportunity to take the spotlight away from her, and would rather have someone loyal that follows her every demand. She saw this season that kumiko was able to stand up to her obsession with taki, and knew that the relationship can no longer continue. Kumiko was able to think for herself for the first time, able to make her own decisions on her future. she can't have a future playing eupho with Reina anymore, and must find a different future? Wow, sasuga kyoani

She literally said she doesn't want to stand out and just wants to get along with everyone

It means she matches society's stereotype of a euphonium. Round, understated, and supportive. There's nothing wrong with that. I'm sure she feels a burning conviction in her heart that her way of playing is right. It's very professional, and she's won gold with it. But Kumiko represents a more bratty, indecisive, greedy side of the euphonium (that mayu also shares, when you think about it). She learned from asuka, natsuki, kanade is her pupil. People who are pains in the ass.

It's debatable which is the real eupho. Kitauji has certainly never won gold with their greedy eupho players. Ultimately, it started because Asuka's father wrote a solo piece to show off with - not an ensemble piece made for concert band.

No Reina just wanted to win, which has been her main goal since day 1

Yeah, this is what I had in mind too.

which in turn makes her a shitty character in season 3 because she has not learned or grow as a person. It is unironically a flaw that she is the same autist we saw in season 1, no developments and still follows around Taki's stupid ideals.

They're all dressed like teenagers attending their first formal event, and their choice of outfit says a lot about their ideas of maturity.

Nozomi is dressed a bit stuffy for her age, but has the most tasteful outfit overall. She probably had friends or an older sister help dress her.
Natsuki is butch with a dash of chuuni. More like a rock star than a concert musician, really.
Yuuko dresses like a child's idea of a fairy tale character.
