As a huge fan of La Corda d'Oro Primo Passo, I must say that I am very disappointed with La Corda d'Oro Secondo Passo.
The main reason why I am disappointed with the OVA is the story. The two episodes do not have a decent plot at all and the OVA merely recycles old ideas from the first season. The only new things in secondo passo are the three new characters Kaji, Eto and Kira, whereas the last two are negligible as they rarely appear.
The old characters from season one are still there, everything at Seiso is still the same. The difference in season two is that everyone from the old cast apart from Hino becomes a foil for the new main character, Kaji Aoi. Kaji (who can be considered the main male character as the stella quintet hardly gets any screen time) is struggling with a similar problem as Tsuchiura did in the first season - he is hiding his viola playing from the rest of the world until Hino helps him to overcome his fears. Hino, on the other hand, is confronted with an old problem again: She is doubting her violin skills (which I would call a regress in her character development) but recovers with the help of Kaji. In the end, they both resolve that "loving an instrument" is enough, which is the very same message as in the first season.
I admit that it is difficult to think of a decent plot for two episodes, yet I would have expected something new and more interesting - not just a replay of season 1 with different characters.
The only two excelling things about the OVA are the beautiful art, the impressing soundtrack (the insert song, the classical music pieces & the OP/ED were awesome) and the seiyuus. It may satisfy you if you're a bishounen-hungry fangirl; however, if you really want to see any important developments as you would usually expect from a sequel, secondo passo is the wrong thing to watch. It is rather a filler episode, released for money-making purposes. If you want to know how the story really continues, the manga would be a better source to inform yourself :D read more

The second season of La Corda d'oro has taken a new evolution i'd say. The music was taken down a notch due to only two episodes in the season (which suckz) but this season focuses more on the new characters. As always, as Kaho has done with all the other boy characters in the previous season, she helps Kaji one of the new characters, find his confidence or in other words inpires him to play the viola again. A little bit of romance can be found between Kaji and Kaho, but sorry for the fans of Tsukimori or any other characters, no association for the old characters. read more

/! For sure if you like one, you WILL like the other /!
- Same romance ambiance, where you have a (naive) girl, who will charmed all boys. (bishonen)
- Musical ambiance, just in Kin no Corda it's just instrumental ambiance, and Uta no prince it's songs, dances, compositions.
- Same bishonen style : cute boy, friendly boy, cold guy, schizophrenic guy.
- the heroine begin with novice skill, but she become better (the best).
the Only DIFFERENCE : in Uta no prince you don't have the fantastic touch, the heroine have real skill, and not a fairy behind her.
It's OBLIGED you like one, you will like the other.
