Haha, the title is pretty misleading since we only saw them in swimsuits for less than a minute. But the training camp part is true. The girls of Plasmagica and our crimson boys all go on a training camp, to write a song for an upcoming concert, the Grateful Rock Festival. But before they all go to the camp, there is more clarification on Cyan’s situation.

[HorribleSubs] Show By Rock!! - 06 [1080p].mkv0025Berry gets to explaining, since Cyan is so distressed. Dagger Morse is a prominent man, who controls the music world. He’s the manager behind Unicorn Virtual Music, the music label that dragged Cyan into the music world. He wants her to boost her music skill to join his band, but Berry is helping her with his power to destroy the dark monsters that Dagger controls. Maple and Angelica knew all this but kept it a secret as well. Basically it’s all the things that we already know. The crimson boys know all this as well, and want to help fight Dagger. And that’s when Maple presents them with the training camp for their preparation of the Grateful Rock Festival, and extremely huge and legendary festival, which Crow is passionate about. They head off to write new songs, but things between Plasmagica isn’t resolved just yet. Chuchu and Moa may understand, but Retoree is still hurt.

And so off they go. Poor SHINGANCRIMSONZ. The boys are stuffed into the van, the van can’t climb the mountain trail so they have to push, they get too into the pushing and push the car way off the mountain, they get lost in the mountains, almost get shot, have a terrible time, but then get found by one of the President’s relatives, who helps them out. They didn’t play a big part in the episode, but as always they made me laugh a lot. Rom’s different persona as a business man was hilarious.

A man lost in the mountains wearing a business suit is even more suspicious.
So while the boys are having a terrible time in the mountains, the girls are having a better time at the beach. Sort of. Well, they’re in a comfortable and beautiful tropical paradise, but they’re not in any mood to have fun. They’re there to write new songs, but Retoree is still hurt about Cyan. So while Retoree is in the bath, Cyan joins in and tries to explain herself, but Retoree leaves. In her room, Cyan starts to sing. She basically sings from the heart, spilling out all of her emotions, her voice being heard by Chuchu and Retoree who join her. Feelings can be best understood through music, so Retoree accepts Cyan’s feelings and situation. And then they notice Moa isn’t with them.

[HorribleSubs] Show By Rock!! - 06 [1080p].mkv0101We still have another person who hasn’t shared her secret yet. Moa is sitting on a cliff, and when the girls find her they think she’s about to jump and proceed to freak out. It’s then that Moa outright tells them, she’s an alien on an investigative mission of their planet. The girls don’t believe her, and they actually think she’s coming up with some kind of weird gimmick to make Cyan feel better. It was pretty funny when Chuchu and Retoree wanted to come up with their own gimmicks to make their band original, but when Moa saw they didn’t believe them, she literally called for her spaceship. Like, the thing just crashlanded to where she was and she was standing on top of it. It was pretty bizarre but at least they believed her now. Moa was feeling guilty of Retoree being upset that Cyan would have to leave someday, so she was pretty upset herself. But Retoree has a more positive view on things, and doesn’t mind that one day Moa might have to leave as well. She just wants to cherish the time the four of them will share as a band, and as friends.

Baby :’)
So in the end, they decide to sing the song Cyan had been singing for the festival, so the training camp was a good thing. Now that everything between them is resolved, we can move on to the Festival and the dark monsters. I’m glad they’re on good terms now. The animation in this show is pretty great throughout, but I really loved it this episode. I guess it was during the song, the way the moon and stars were bright, with the pretty colors. I just found it so gorgeous. It was all pretty. I liked the brighter colors, since Midi City is kinda dark, save for the characters being bright. Anyway, next week looks like we’ll get back to dark monster business, but with SHINGANCRIMSONZ. So that should be fun.
