Wow. Talk about coincidences. Peg and I just finished watching the complete box set of K-On! (including the Movie) the day before you released this, and I had just finished reading her the Supporting Documents about an hour before actually learning of the release. Very nicely timed, Gryphon. <grin>

While I'm here, I want to share a little something folks might appreciate. Some brave soul has ripped the two-disc set of the 2011 K-On! "Come With Me" concert where the movie and its release date were first announced, and has posted the resulting MP4s on Google Photos -- download them while you can. (You can also watch them streaming from the site if you're so inclined.)

The concert is noteworthy for a couple reasons:

One, in the course of it HTT's voice actresses perform several times "in character" as the band. (Not too badly, at that. Yui's seiyuu apparently was already a guitar player, albeit acoustic guitar, and the rest of them seem to have put in a fair amount of effort to learn their instruments. Mio's seiyuu is the least convincing, in part because she's right-handed trying to play bass left-handed. As a result, most of the songs are obvious lip-sync to tracks, but they try, with "Yui" and "Ritsu" the most convincing.)

Two, it also has a live Death Devil performance, starting at about 1:40:00 into the first MP4 and lasting about 15 minutes. Whoever it is backing up Sawako's VA, they're the real thing. She herself looks like she learned enough guitar to fake it most of the time, but she's got a bit of the old slow left hand now and then. But if anyone wants to see what their performance in TFLF might have looked and sounded like... there it is for you.
