Ontop of that, this show succeeds in something that Blassreiter failed in: Having actions scenes that, while short and not exactly elaborate, more than make up for it in terms of being really stylish and fun to watch regardless. The musical aspect of course being a big part of it, but even besides tat, there's some legit cool stuff to enjoy. The most obvious one for most probably being Hibiki's' fire sword, but to give an example that stood out to me; Todoroki spearing a flying Douji, then letting his guitar fall so it guts the Hime? That was incredible.

Binge Buddy's' feelings are still mixed, but he really loves Ibuki so far, atleast. Haha.

For the musical aspect of the fight, I like that how this shows creativity in fight, that everything in your hand can be an effective weapon to gain advantage against enemies, not only conventional weapons like swords or such. Drumming is done by bashing the bass with your stick, and in fight? That equals to comboing your opponent multiple times with a hard hitting weapon in those sticks!
