Having friends over at the house for the first time can be nerve-wracking for many kids. They don't their friends to enter their abode thinking they walked into a pigsty. For Bocchi, this was even more taxing on them. Their family assumed they were joking about having friends this whole time.
Nijika and Kita made their way to Bocchi's house for some fun, but they also arrived to talk about their band shirt logo. For most bands, having a strong logo is crucial for the brand. Some noticeable band logos include the serene dove logo for New Jersey post-hardcore titans Thursday, the Hot Lips logo from iconic rock band The Rolling Stones, and the iconic drop-T logo from The Beatles. For some bands, adding some pizzazz to their band name on merch is just enough. Others wanted to have a simple logo that's always connected with the group.
Bocchi showed off their design for the band shirt, and it managed to stun their bandmates. With chains and zippers all over, the red shirt looked like something WWE wrestler Kane would've worn to the ring. Unfortunately, Bocchi's idea was rejected, and the group used Nijika's simplistic shirt design.
It was time for the band to finally focus on the concert, but something managed to rear its ugly head at the end of the episode: the weather.
The theme for this episode revolved around creativity. Aside from making music, finding the right shirt design is one of the most creative things bands can do. Many people will often buy a band T-shirt if the design is immensely appealing in a stylish or, in some cases, offensive manner.
