A scene distinctly implying that two of the K-ON! girls actually have boyfriends and may thus actually be mere soiled high-schoolers instead of the idealised moeblobs fans so adore has proven a major bombshell to their more devoted fans.
The offending scene from the manga:
The translated dialogue:
Ritsu: Ehehe, a little bit!
Mugi: Pehaps you have a boyfriend or something!?
Mio: There’s no way Ritsu could get a boyfriend…
Ritsu: …
Mio: Eh!? What!? What’s up with that reaction!?
Ritsu: Well, it’s time to study.
Yui: … She left.
Mugi: Maybe she really did get a boyfriend!
Mio: Ritsu has a boyfriend? Impossible… Hahaha…
The second offending scene from the manga:
The translated text:
Azusa: Hmm… Ritsu-senpai has a boyfriend does she?
Mio: As if! Ritsu could never get a boyfriend!
Mio: Stop looking at me, Mugi!
Yui: But Ricchan looks as if she could be quite popular amongst the boys?
Mugi: She’s cheerful and fun!
Mio: N-no no! Dating is for when both parties are fully adult, right…
Azusa: Mio-senpai is surprisingly old-fashioned…
That night…
Mio: Honestly – what is Ritsu thinking…
Mio: Getting a boyfriend before our exams!
Mio: Well, it’s still not confirmed…
Mio: Anyhow, why didn’t she tell me! That’s the kind of thing you talk to friends about isn’t it!
Phone: You went on a date with your boyfriend today… you k-kissed, and stuff? Kyaaa!
Yui: Mio-chan, can I please go to sleep now?
Naturally many fans are alarmed by these developments, in a manner reminiscent of the creepiness over Nagi-sama’s imputed hymenal deficiency.
Now all that remains is for Azusa’s boyfriend to make an appearance, and for Mio to get one – doubtless the reaction amongst otaku fans might well be entertaining to behold.

Japanese otaku need to get a fucking life... getting angry at shit like a "possibly-soiled-moeblob-highschool girl" is like... shit man, just get out of your stinking room and get real women! Even if they're hookers!
I'm more shocked at finding out there are men in the k-on universe. I thought they reproduced asexualy.
Lol :D
it always impress me how much of a ruckus otakus does for this kind of thing
Glad this turned out not to be true. Yui is destined to be with Azu-nyan, no one else!
No Yui is destined to be with me!
BUT RITSU IS ALREDY MARRIED TO MIO!!!!!
Ha! Burn in fictionalized jealousy, otaku!
I havent seen this show, but I decree that the protagonist and he closest friends are now oral sex champions capable of utter urethral destruction\
--Case closed.
seriosuly what's the big deal, it's not like you can actually get the girls into this 3-D world (if you have, we'd all happy)
it's a moeblob! don't spoil it with a boyfriend!
Wasn't it just ONE Kannagi fan that went ape-shit?
A few people will be a little shocked to find out that SLEEPING BEAUTY, SNOW WHITE or RAPUNZEL were in fact used goods...
But if they ever made Mio hit the sack with some filthy good looking non-otaku boy look out - otakus will start stabbing the nearest cardboard cut outs and throwing bricks at windows.
No.
A whole army of them did. They canceled their subscriptions and burned their books. Some even made death threats.
...wait, Yui has a boyfriend? That's even more impossibe.
Blushing Ritsu does not lie. I can't think of any other reason that would make her want to blush to Mio's question.
LOLOLOLOL.
It's already been confirmed that this isn't true.
It was all a misunderstanding thanks to Ritsu, who was acting suspicious because she wanted to surprise Mio with a birthday present.
Y'all got trolled.
RAWR! I AM IN RAGE!
By the way: would be funny if her boyfriend was actually a cute trap...
Are there any K-ON! doujins like it? ^^
That would be awesome if her boyfriend was a trap.
Yoko Oh NO! K-ON reaaly is based on the Beetles!
Wasn't there kind of a hint on the first season about that too?
That turned out to be a set of lyrics that Mio put in Ritsu's mail box that she misinterpreted and an anonymous love confession.
thats not the only thing mio put in her box
I foresee the Kannagi madness all over again.......
Who even said they had sex? I hate how people equate relationship =sex. There's more to it than that.
NOOooooooooooOOOOOO! Mai RITSU HAS BEEN STOLEN FROM MEH!!
...
Just kidding.
But seriously, any otaku out there intent on destroying your beloved Yui's Les Paul...please don't, I don't mind taking it off your hands even if it has been "sullied and used".
Otaku: NOT AS PLANNED!!!
By the way, who's the artist of first picture? I actually thought it was a screenshot from the newest season and it gave me a rude shock.
So does this mean I can expect a Hentai ova after this season?
R.I.P K-ON...for great justice.
all your base are belong to us.
keikaku doori..lol
AS long as the boyfriend is not Makoto Ito.
Otaku are so neurotically idiotic.
I think there should at least be boys in the anime trying to go out with Mio or someone in the band ! I mean come on ;--; Theres only lesbians and horny girls in anime. I need some "Ew No I dont wanna date you, I'm in a band-" response!
I cant fucking believe someone actually care about this shit.
I'm sorry, but I just cant hold myself here: Fucking LOSERS!!!!!!!!!
Everyone is a loser. If you play fantasy sports, watch reality tv instead of actually living life, using twitter for nonsense, the need to know what celebs are doing and etc. etc. All those things = Losers
I'd rather have a non-virgin (the absolute worse-case scenario, based on the context) Yui or Ritsu (mostly Yui) than a Yui or Ritsu from any number of doujinshi whose apparently had sex with tentacle monsters, had sex with four people at once, has a penis, etc.
hint: Seems like they forgot what anime and manga are made for in the first place . . .
if it's true = dropped
It was a misunderstanding. See my previous comment.
Confirmed to be a misunderstanding:
Ritsu meets with a girl who was Mio's fanclub president last year and graduated and she gives her a photo of Mio.
I have the raws for the whole chapter if anyone wants them.
Which chapter is that in?
Chapter 46 I believe. I might be wrong though.
Hmm, I will have to wait because chapter 46 is the highest translated chapter. -_-
It's actually Chapter 8 of volume 4. Sorry for the mistake.
Well, you're not missing much. Basically Mio confronts Ritsu who just says she wanted to see her expression and that she doesn't have a boyfriend. And then they meet the Mio fanclub president who exchanges pictures with Ritsu.
In the end watch it just be a misunderstanding. lol.
If they make another shit fit of this like the Nagi incident, I will personally go to Japan and kill each offending little bastard. That shit needs to stop.
Die otakus, just... DIE!!!
I love you too Math.
I'm an Otaku and I guarantee you wouldn't be able to beat me in sports or in a fight.
Didn't the last episode of K-on season1 indicated Ritsu doesn't have a boyfriend nor Yui......
Probably both are just secretly Yuri........
Closet lesbians.
