| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- That was great. I thought Takeshi did a good job with the way he played his music. I found his reaction towards Arima's praise to be quite amusing. It was really nice to see Emi perform in the second half of the episode though. Her red dress is beautiful and she put a lot of feelings into that piano play. Great episode overall and right now I have to say that Arima and Kaori got some high level competition. |
 |
| KajiKaji's character's performance. Wow, there are so many fans! He's happy about the main guy praising him. The friend guy is liking Hayami-san's character, who is unstable. Two rivals' teachers are arguing. Hayami-san's character's performance. She awed everyone. Basically, both of them admired young main guy, so they see him as a rival to want to win. |
I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
| Beautiful Performance, Oh my. |
 |
| I think I'm going to like Takeshi and Emi. Both of them had beautiful performances that were bothered by too much dialogue. But beautiful nonetheless. Btw, the ending had way too loud of cheers compared to the number of people there lol it sounded like a superbowl game. Guess next up is Arima, can't wait!! |
 |
 Oh man. Spectacular performances from both Takeshi and Emi. I've always loved them as Arima's rivals (especially tsun-Emi). It was a pleasure to see this animated. Now, can Arima match them/not make a complete fool of himself. |

Gaksital said: Beautiful Performance, Oh my. Great animation And I don't think that performances are the best aspect of this anime. The whole atmosphere, that thoughts and dialogues are essence of show! Classical music is just a distant background for great storyline and characters development. |

| Dub = fake crap. Always. |
| I'm out of words. |
| That was wonderful to hear and see the two playing. I can't wait for Kousei's performance. |
 |
| Chopin Etude Op 25 No 11 is sooo good ;) Loved this episode, looking forward to seeing Arima's performance even though it's not gonna be that good :/ |
 |
| Lol if any middle schooler played like Emi, they'd be considered the next best classical pianist. At least the tempo of the Winter Wind was not as fast which shows she still needs improvement with dexterity because usually the Winter Wind is played slightly more quick. Also, the feelings of anger and loneliness that was recommended can be very well portrayed by this etude. Good job to the writer and director. Loved it |
| Good stuff :3 Takeshi and Emi's performances were really good. For some reason I can't see Arima living up to par ^^; Should be interesting seeing how good he is after these couple of years of blank and his handicap. Kaori's reaction to Emi was pretty interesting. Totally loved the OST that was playing before Emi started her performance |

| Dub = fake crap. Always. |
| So much Chopin, I'm happy. |
| >.< Learning about Takeshi and Emi's attachment towards Arima! Takayanagi and Ryouta is pretty shallow in their own right :P Arima with his first concert before being converted ^^ He was really cute and Emi falling for that! Her anger and loneliness and wanting that Arima to come back. Emi with her performance and she looked really pretty too with the dress and her hair down. Both magnificent performances by the two! I like Emi's reason for chasing after Arima more ^^ Bringing the old Arima back, I really am looking forward to Arima playing his own true style. |
 |
| So that was actually like that! I thought Takeshi Aiza was so cool just like the manga suggest but when he played the piano was too lame! The thing I didn't expect was Emi Igawa! the way she played the piano was fantastic! It's really better than Takeshi Aiza! And what those two have the same goal! It was to take Kosei's attention! Wait why is Emi Igawa's back story was incomplete?! Well it be better to show it on the next episode or RIOT! All in all a good episode! Can't really wait for Kosei's performance next week! |

| Haters always gonna hate. |
| Emi's performance was so breath-taking. |
| "We should be more proud of NEETs! Love the country that strives to produce NEETs, for world peace, we must stand up! We must find more non NEET-in-waiting elites, learn from each other , form a new Japanese Party, and bravely challenge the evil! Grow, NEETs! Grow like blazing fire! NEETs!” |
| Damn that piano was nice. |
| Oh god who are you people? |
| Emi's dress and that black piano. Great view. Excellent performances by both Takeshi and Emi. :D |
 |
| Lovely anime. |
| I can't wait to hear Takeshi play the piano and see how good he actually is since he refused going to Germany to show Kousei how good he is. Hmmm, I must admit that Takeshi's better than I thought he would be and it nice seeing that he admired Kousei. Dat Takeshi Brigade of fangirls doe... Dude... Watari... really? Damn... Emi's looking really cute in that red dress :3 Awww, lil' Kousei was like a robot XD. So Emi decided to start playing the piano because of young Kousei eh... Ok... Kousei x Emi!!!! Emi's performance was really something else to be honest :o Oh c'mon... we have to wait another week to hear Kousei's performance... geez... |
| "Let justice be done, though the heavens fall." |
| I got goosebumps throughout the entire episode. Loved it. |
| Eh |
| Those performances were outstanding (ﾉ´ヮ´)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧ Takeshi shaking after his performance was over. Watari fanboying over Emi even before she got up on stage. That talk between the two mentors. Aw, that flashback to Kousei's first performance. Kaori understanding Emi. Ah~ can't wait to see Kousei play. |
 "Later on, you will become a lively person causing headaches as the shrine-god." |
| I loved this episode so much. That choplin was full of epicness and also the song that played before Emi preformed. Great music and animation as always. |

| what an enticing episode next episode we get to hear arima plat can't wait (though i half expect him to fuck up) More Kaori please!!! overall great episode!!!!!!! more this anime is amazing so far this season |
 |
| When they cut for commercial I said "We don't need your life story!" Aaaaaaaaaaand I spoke too soon. . . Blondie was pretty great tough! I'm not getting into his character yet, might be the Kaji Yuki effect, but he's good! |
| The 2002 Tokyo Mew Mew adaptation is not as great as you remember it being. |
| Didn't feel this enthralled since Nodame! Both performances were equally amazing. I simply cannot wait for Arima to perform. I think Arima will be very close to winning or will actually win in the end, since if he is well beaten by Takeshi, Kaji Yuki is heading to Germany and if he is well beaten by Emi, Hayami Saori will have successfully rejected him. You don't line up two well established seiyuus for 2-3 episodes. Just my two cents. :P |

Balakirev said: and maybe a 7/10 for Emi's performance. It's a bit too soft and feminine for "winter wind". What feminine part you saw there? |
| Simply enthralling performances by Takeshi and Emi! O.O Seriously, I felt the urge to stand up and clap for them when they finished their pieces. Very nice placement of the backstory of those two prior to and during their performances. It made it so they became that much more relatable to. I was initially disappointed when I realized Kousei wasn't going to play for this episode, but I'm now really glad since they properly paced both of Takeshi's and Emi's performances. Kousei is up to bat next. Hope he puts up a decent performance, but who knows what to expect right now. |

| This anime. Is. Beautiful. I have no other way of describing this since its amazing and I am almost speechless. The music played in this episode is amazing. 100% Amazing. I think I'm going to try to learn those two pieces once I'm finished with Moonlight Sonata Movement 3. I loved both the rivals that uses Arima Kousei as the reason they climb to the top. Great performances. Its so good for both their mind and soul. Awesome. Now. I cannot wait to see what Arima Kousei will bring to the stage next episode. Arghhh soo frustrating to have to wait. Got the SAT's coming too! Damnit! Anyways, I am sure this show will just become more and more amazing. 5/5 once again and I hope forever will be. This is perfect. |
| "No one knows what the future holds. That's why its potential is infinite.” - Okabe Rintarou "El Psy Congroo." Kirino Kyousake Picture  |
| Another brilliant episode, but it would have been even better if we had heard Kousei play as well. Also, was that a young Kaori next to Emi in her flashback of Kousei's first performance? |
| Wow. This ended too fast. That piece was great. Another week waiting for quality music combined with comedy. 5/5 |
| God damn I want to learn the piano right now :| That feeling when 20 mins feel like 2. Emis performance was godlike. I'm curious to see how Arima will be after he gets destroyed. Cause if Emi doesn't win that's the "lie" in the title :V |
 |
| Yesss, they played 2 of my favorite etudes from Chopin, and we have to wait another week to see Kousei perform, I hope he doesn't have any missed notes hahhahahahaha because that's the name of the piece he's performing |
| lol |
| Impressive episode. I actually loved the atmosphere when Emi was playing. |
| stellar performances emi was beautiful in that red dress but i can't say the same for Takeshi's hair lmao |
| Étude in A minor, Op. 25, No. 11, Winter Wind.... Raging emotion, just like a blizzard. You can hear the roar of the blizzard, but despite its loud roar and rage, what you feel is its coldness, striking to your bones with its loneliness. The blizzard is strong, but lonely. It is angry, but lonely. It is cold, and lonely. 4.5/5 |
HOW TO SAVE ANIME IN THREE SIMPLE STEPS
Should even one of the above conditions cannot be done, anime is still at risk. |
| Emi performed was amazing.! She let the piano a blaze with her emotions. I cannot wait to see Kousei's performance next episode and how he compares to those two. Great episode!!! |
 |
| Takeshi's hair is lol. I could only dream of being able to play a Chopin piece someday. My fingers would probably fall off first. Emi's performance was amazing, though I have to agree with some other people that the crowd was way too loud for the number of people in the theatre. She definitely deserved the wild cheers, but that was a little overdramatic. Can't wait for Arima's performance! I don't really care if he screws up or magically does amazingly; I just want to see how everyone reacts to however his performance is. |
 |
| I just can't shake it ... the feeling in the back of my head... it says 'this is great, but Nodame is the big sis'... Which is not a bad thing, a fitting little sister to Nodame is still fucking awesome, but it is a little sister anyway. (Hell i want the last arc of Nodame right now, animated in the same quality, this would probably blow my mind.) |
 |
| 5/5 Amazing episode I seriously cant wait for the next! |
| Winners Don't Make Excuses |
| Emi was so good, omg. Really, really hoping Kousei lives up to their expectations and doesn't mess up. It would really suck to train for 2 years looking up to some kid, just to find out they are not good anymore. |
