It\u2019s MyGO!!!!! \u2013 Episode 2"},"content":{"rendered":"

Hello folks, and welcome back to Wrong Every Time. Today I\u2019m eager to dive back into the thorny drama of BanG Dream! It\u2019s MyGO!!!!!, after a premiere that seemed to promise far more tears and resentment than starry-eyed musical performances. MyGO opened on a band breakup and continued more or less in that vein, as the scattered members of CRYCHIC all went about their separate ways, some eager to pick up the pieces, others hesitant to invite such pain again.<\/span><\/p>\n

Into this tangled web of relationships stomped Anon Chihaya, who has no idea what\u2019s going on, but goddamnit if she\u2019s not gonna make it about herself. Anon is a delightfully self-absorbed heroine who exhibits none of the optimistic or inspiring qualities you\u2019d expect from a music drama lead; she\u2019s pursuing a band purely to fit in at her apparently band-obsessed high school, and has so far responded to the emotional troubles of her compatriots with a mixture of gossip-hungry curiosity and loud indifference. Basically none of the characters introduced so far seem to exhibit healthy relationships with their peers, which seems like a terrific recipe for some Rumors-style musical alchemy. Let\u2019s see what they get up to next!<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Episode 2<\/b><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

We drop in accompanied by what seems like a friggin\u2019 organ-led battle theme, as Taki faces off with Anon in front of the coffee shop<\/span><\/p>\n

This confrontation is witnessed by the brunette from Tsukinomori, who asks Anon if anything is wrong. Anon, of course, has no interest in either understanding Taki\u2019s explosion or being comforted by this girl, and thus runs away as well<\/span><\/p>\n

Our OP offers a full band performance with our eventual five-piece, with Tomori on lead vocals and Anon unsurprisingly relegated to rhythm guitar. The bassist and drummer are the old members from CRYCHIC, but the lead guitarist is someone we haven\u2019t met yet<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Nice simulation of genuine live performance photography with this shaky camerawork, while the spinning perspective once again makes excellent use of these CG models<\/span><\/p>\n

Also impressed to see how well the characters are actually playing the song they\u2019re performing, from their movement around the neck to the clearly articulated lead riffs and Taki\u2019s convincing drumming<\/span><\/p>\n

Over at Tsukinomori, our brunette seems to be pushing Mutsumi more than she\u2019s comfortable. She freezes at a request for Saki\u2019s address, and instead says she\u2019ll try to contact Saki again herself<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Anon arrives in class only to see Tomori is depressed again, and thus offers her some penguin-based validation<\/span><\/p>\n

Tomori is actually trying to make friends, while Anon is just perpetually thinking \u201cgod, how much do I have to care about penguins to keep her from spiraling into depression\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

I appreciate how the trio of girls from the first episode are still popping up, and that Anon has already successfully integrated into their circle. She really doesn\u2019t have any trouble making friends, she\u2019s just sort of indifferent to the concept so far – it feels like she\u2019s going through the motions of a successful high school life in the hopes of eventually finding some aspect of it that interests her. As such, she\u2019s already achieved the sort of superficial friendships-of-proximity that often define high school, but which are rarely highlighted in anime<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

That\u2019s not terribly surprising – superficial friendships are superficial, and thus they don\u2019t make for particularly compelling drama. But I appreciate MyGO emphasizing how Anon really wouldn\u2019t have any trouble making these sorts of friends; just talk about whatever everyone else is talking about and you\u2019re golden<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cNo one\u2019s looking for guitarists or vocalists.\u201d Sorry Anon, the world has an overwhelming surplus of folks like you, who demand the center stage<\/span><\/p>\n

Hah, great initial interaction between Anon and the brunette CRYCHIC member. Anon first thanks her, to which she just smiles politely, having apparently completely forgotten Anon<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Interesting cut to their feet as they\u2019re speaking, contrasting Anon\u2019s somewhat nervous posture with this girl\u2019s stiff, entirely straight-ahead poise. She\u2019s speaking kindly, but there\u2019s no emotion in her posture – it\u2019s like how Anon spoke to the school official in the first episode<\/span><\/p>\n

Anon describes Tsukinomori as \u201cthat school full of cultured young ladies.\u201d So she actually does have trained posture<\/span><\/p>\n

This girl treats Anon much like Anon treats Tomori: even as she politely responds to Anon\u2019s questions, her mind is entirely elsewhere, demonstrated through a perspective cut following her wandering gaze<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

She sets Anon off her guard by calling her out on her school-related questions, then invites her to tea when she can\u2019t really refuse. She appears to be deliberately engineering another confrontation with Taki<\/span><\/p>\n

Anon\u2019s still not really sure who she wants to be, but \u201csomeone important\u201d seems like a prerequisite, and this girl\u2019s prestige and dignity means she\u2019s easily dragging Anon into her wake<\/span><\/p>\n

Alright, her name is Soyo! Finally a goddamn name, thank you Anon<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Rana, the last girl from the OP, arrives for an open mic. What is this band-crazy paradise of a town<\/span><\/p>\n

Taki arrives to take their order, prompting some grumbling from Anon<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cYou needn\u2019t glare like that.\u201d Anon isn\u2019t actually all that good at playing it cool, certainly not compared to Soyo, and Soyo is not above teasing her about it<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I looked at the bulletin board, I didn\u2019t see anyone searching for what I want.\u201d They\u2019re getting excellent mileage out of small expression shifts from Soyo. The slight lowering of her eyes as Anon says this conveys her condescension perfectly, her clear and immediate understanding of what Anon is looking for<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cSoyo, you know so much!\u201d Soyo\u2019s tiny smile of acknowledgment is only conveyed in the reflection of her glass, emphasizing its practiced insincerity<\/span><\/p>\n

Rana can rock! Her soloing prompts only a \u201cwhat a racket\u201d from Anon, who seems to have no genuine interest in music beyond it being a vehicle for her to look cool. In true Anon fashion, she immediately attempts to shout over the performance<\/span><\/p>\n

Still, even Anon is eventually caught up in Rana\u2019s performance. As Rana walks out, she begrudgingly admits \u201cworst case, I wouldn\u2019t mind letting someone else play guitar,\u201d clearly comparing her own meager guitar abilities to the performance she just witnessed<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cWhy are you fighting?\u201d \u201cI don\u2019t really know.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Soyo notes the mention of Tomori, but doesn\u2019t let any response to this name show in her expression<\/span><\/p>\n

Another smile that doesn\u2019t reach Soyo\u2019s eyes as she says \u201cTomori is my friend\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI might like to start as just a support player.\u201d Bass seems right for Soyo – someone who\u2019s always watching but never taking the center stage, someone who understands exactly what her bandmates need, someone whose steady understanding of the groove is actually the true backbone of the band. Her seemingly Machiavellian personality feels oddly appropriate for bass<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cYay! I love you, Soyo-san!\u201d And Anon remains gleefully oblivious to all of this conversation\u2019s undercurrents<\/span><\/p>\n

Soyo\u2019s even steepling and rolling her fingers at this point, no longer able to keep her villainous mastermind nature in check<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI wonder if I\u2019ll be able to start over this way.\u201d Back at home, Anon can finally admit to her uncertainty. She\u2019s not sure if this is the route to becoming a person she\u2019d like to be, but she\u2019s gotta try something<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

She\u2019s also willing to admit she might have pushed too hard with Tomori<\/span><\/p>\n

Elsewhere, Soyo reads Anon\u2019s messages in a lonely, sterile apartment high above the city, contrasting Anon\u2019s words against the hopeful social media posts preceding CRYCHIC\u2019s first live performance<\/span><\/p>\n

Anon arrives at school with a skip in her step and guitar on her back, proud to have made her first step towards creating a band, and graciously apologizing to Tomori for pushing her. Anon\u2019s not desperate anymore, so whatever, Tomori!<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Oh my god, this scene is so heartbreaking. While Anon gleefully brags about how nice Soyo was, and how quickly she agreed to join, Tomori looks on in shock and then hurriedly puts away her penguin bandages. The one tool she\u2019d been able to use to make some kind of connection with Anon, now a source of embarrassment as she chastises herself for hoping for too much. You gotta be more considerate than that, Anon!<\/span><\/p>\n

Provoked by Soyo, Mutsumi now takes the direct approach, and waits for Saki after school<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI told you I didn\u2019t want you to tell anyone where I was, didn\u2019t I?\u201d Oh wow. It seems like Saki actually uprooted her life altogether in the wake of the band breakup, changing schools to avoid interacting with Soyo and the others<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cSoyo is worried about you.\u201d \u201cCould you tell her that I moved or something?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cDon\u2019t turn yourself into a carrier pigeon.\u201d Saki still seems fond of her longtime friend Mutsumi, but detests seeing her used by Soyo. She seems to have a full understanding of what Soyo is truly like<\/span><\/p>\n

Soyo of course asks Anon to meet up at Taki\u2019s cafe, making full use of Taki\u2019s captive presence<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cIf Tomori-chan said she\u2019d be in it with us, what would you do?\u201d Oh man, a masterful play by Soyo. Taki has no desire to be in a band, but Tomori is desperate for community and Taki is determined to protect Tomori, so Soyo believes she can use Tomori\u2019s weakness in order to then exploit Taki\u2019s weakness. Anon, you have no idea of the monster you\u2019ve teamed up with<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cTomori\u2019s hurt.\u201d \u201cAll of us are hurt.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

In a video recording of their practice, Saki actually seems quite gentle with Tomori<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cI can only go all-out once,\u201d says Taki. Of course she\u2019d be the drummer who throws all of her emotions into her performance, necessitating a calculating professional like Soyo on bass to keep things steady<\/span><\/p>\n

And then Soyo texts Tomori, saying \u201ccan you meet up? Anon-chan says she wants to see you.\u201d Soyo knows Tomori would be anxious about meeting with her, and so dangles the friend she\u2019s obviously put effort into making in front of her instead<\/span><\/p>\n

Soyo wisely disappears before the meetup, letting the earnest Anon be her instrument for reclaiming Tomori<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

And Done<\/b><\/p>\n

My god, what a tempestuous mess! I\u2019m now beginning to see why these characters were ever able to collaborate in the first place: Soyo is just that good at manipulating people, expertly wielding their interweaving desires in order to arrive at whatever end she is seeking. Watching her run circles around Anon and Taki is just as much fun as watching Anon bulldoze her own way through social interactions, and I\u2019m already eager to untease the layers of deception and genuine desire informing her motives. Soyo has immediately proven herself a fantastic addition to the main cast, and a compelling foil for Anon\u2019s blunt affectation. What a delightfully messy band this will be.<\/span><\/p>\n
