I hope they start showing the backstories of the characters (excluding Arale and Ritsu) soon. Otherwise, the plot is starting to feel hollow.

It’s especially needed for Viola. Why is she doing all this?

Initially, I chalked it up to her own selfish ambition: to build her own personal brand (as opposed to the band’s). But now these actions are destructive whilst not providing much benefit to herself or her band.

The anime is now trying to paint her as a psycho, but psychopathy doesn’t arise out of nowhere. Historically, they’ve had circumstances that pushed them to become the persons they are.

I need to know her motivations! Or at least how she came to be the way she is!
