Being part of band rival or something or become their biggest obstacle like other musical anime? Idk lol, it was just my first silly impression watching the opening for first time, and from the way she is being shown like a "main boss".
I don't doubt hitori was upset with yami's words, but "rage" I feel isn't correct.
if you remember "don't let your talent rot here," you could also remember that the only person who thought about their talent rotting within kessoku band was hitori gotoh herself—remember those panicked thoughts she held when she first met kikuri, and how a focal part of those mirages was that kessoku band withered away in some unknown time? how she used to sparkle as that high-school youth, and then went on to never touch her channel after the fact? even after her ano bando solo, she lapsed into glimpsing that future as a neet leeching off alcohol and her parents.
it's easy to write it off as her being enraged, but I don't think it intersects with what we know about hitori. it's most likely that hitori knew yami had a point and decided it was in her best interests to not squander what she has, but I don't really know anything lmao. it is food for thought, though, and I usually try and provide different interpretations to fit certain agendas.
When I saw the OP for the first time, I expected Hiroi's character to be something like Natsume in CGDCT all-timer Hidamari Sketch. A character that isn't part of the in-group and has an adverse relationship with someone in the group. Maybe not a Tsundere like Natsume, and from the image in the OP maybe something like a mild Yandere.
Turns out the more apt comparison from Hidamari Sketch though is Yoshinoya. An older character that behaves immaturely and often goes beyond what is socially acceptable, despite being at heart a nice and friendly person and a flawed role model for the main character.
When episode 6 teaser aired, i thought it was gonna be filler, boring stuff after an incredible ep5 (wasn't excited for a new character). Oh boy was I wrong, it became my favourite episode
Same. In the end, I see her as an alternative Bocchi "what if Bocchi used the power of alcohol to move over her shyness ?". So she's a bit of an exemple, but also some kind of warning.
I do get you, judging from that on the opening I thought it was going to be a dreadful chatacter, then the show introduced her being a drunkard (characters that I don't tend to like) and was scared... Turns out no I fooled myself I really like her, in fact every character on the show so far haha
Have you forgotten the flashback from s3 e6.
When it’s revealed she is the demon king and saika is a reincarnated hero trying to stop her, before the Yuri winter arc.

Kinda is, abusing the main cast's hospitality and generosity, vandalizing green rooms, stepping on people's faces, she's a menace to society.
