Yukio finally catches a bit of a break in this episode. Hyoudou’s goons seek to embarass Yukio by electing him to almost every swim event in the swim tournament (I guess they are a gang of swimmers… oooh scary *sarcastic*), but they don’t realize what powers Saitou wields. A surprising second place finish puts the pressure back on the bullies, and a series of victories (inspired by Maho’s 2-piece) showcases Yukio as a real hero. Yukio repays the favor by inspiring Momo-chan to learn swimming from Saitou, and that is that. Later, Beck (the band) appears doomed when the crappy Serial Mama drummer (Toudou) decides to quit; fortunately, it just so happens that Saku is an awesome drummer. They both are inducted into the band, and get a chance at their first live gig. Taira doesn’t think Yukio has the right stuff, but Ryuusuke points out that chemistry is just as important as technique in a band.
This really picked up, with Yukio getting a chance to get on stage! I wonder when he will finally get a chance to sing… right now I think Ryuusuke’s just keeping Yukio in for Saku. But once Yukio sings, what good will Chiba be (he doesn’t even play an instrument)? Can’t wait for the next episode!

Koyuki is the ballad singer
they use Chiba for one type of songs and Koyuki for others and i think they sing together sometimes, it’s like Linkin Park xD (what an awful comparation gawd 
)
