| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- That was kinda cute. Seems like Kanade has competition already not that I'm surprised. Episode felt kinda slow but she's trying hard to play the violin. The little backgrounds between her present and past self was cute I guess. Still, her competitions are pretty damn tough. Yukihiro in particular. |
 |
| I think I just saw Tsukimori Len playing Ave Maria.... Is there a chance we will see other original characters like Hino as well? :) |
| It seem like there is some kind of magic here as well. Fairy remind her of childhood. It was beautiful I don't listen to much classic but this was good. :D I don't know about Len & Hino will appear but it still the same school name as they attend as previous season. I dunno probably we do. |

Nothing ventured, nothing gained (Girls und Panzer der Film ) / from Nishizumi Miho |
| Was that Len? I'm just hoping that Kazuki will make an appearance. |
 |
| Really good episode. I wonder who that girl with the teal blue hair colour was. And Kyoya seemed pissed. |
janusik5 said: I think I just saw Tsukimori Len playing Ave Maria.... Yeah I almost thought I saw him too :O Nice, Kanade finally remembers that playing the violin is fun. I'm glad they were able to show everyone that they were worthy of the nomination by Ritsu. Even the blonde hair guy ended up really liking her playing. |
| Decent ep, like the first. Seems like this show is taking it slow, which is fine by me. I shall enjoy the nice music~ Lol Len came back for a moment @funnyumentionit, I bet you're right. Marked-Ice said: The girl with the teal blue hair reminds me of CC. Same. Her personality too, minus the Pizza Hut. |
| God, that Ave Maria... couldn't help but think of Len and Hino. :) Little kid Ritsu is so adorable. :3 why can't he still be like that?! Sighhh. But seriously, some scenes in this episode just blatantly reminded me why I can't stand classical music anime except for Nodame Cantabile. The animators were so lazy that Kohinata was literally bowing on the fingerboard in half the music sequences... I guess most people wouldn't notice, but it just bugs me. I've never been a huge fan of La Corda D'oro, and this series is markedly worse than the first, but it's still a pleasant, simple watch. Just nothing...absolutely nothing original, and not the best execution either. Also, is anyone else irked by her character design? She looks way too much like the other male characters in the show sometimes... especially in the OP. Why can't she look more feminine, like the CC look alike? I swear if she wore a guy's uniform, she'd look exactly like the other bishounen. funnyumentionit said: Shaniyaz said: Ritsu's violin riffs were insane at the end! Too bad, seems like he has some errors or not confident enough.. My guess is: Just a guess. Lol, you should be a writer for otome games or something; that totally sounds like it would happen. xD |

| That's a heartwarming performance. :) Too bad we didn't see Kyoya's :/ |

| the noticeable lack of animation budget for this show is quite unnerving.. but aside from that, the episode was alright. |
 |
| I thought the blonde guy was gonna introduced that green-haired guy as "He is fellow shota of the group." while feeling deep inside "Tch, I am the only one AND the best oresama shota ever, just die you!" The captain and kouhai gave a strong Rin and Nitori vibe there. Man, can't we get an interesting human-like MC for once? And here I thought she is better than others... I miss old Kiniro no corda. Can't believe she forgot about the test. Atleast her performance was good but seriously that "I..." pissed me off. It's hilarious to see how classically shoujo-ish it is. 4.5/10, I am just here, hoping it would become as good as the first one. |

| This week, unthrown celloss. Next week? Who knows what the future holds! I'd like an orchestra of bagpipes, please. silverwalls said: It wasn't too much of an issue except for how much it takes away from the performances.the noticeable lack of animation budget for this show is quite unnerving.. but aside from that, the episode was alright. |

I'm gonna change back to 6, at least there had pretty boys and decent ost xD You are missing out if you haven't seen Utapri LOL That's like the big otome anime out there. |
| I know its not a comedy, but I can't help but crack up while watching this. |
| I'm just glad they didn't drag on Kanade's problem of taking the spot in the ensemble from the others. That would have been very annoying. I'm glad she remembered how fun it is to play violin, so now they can get things moving. I really am disappointed that the animation quality is exactly the same as the first La Corda. It's been years now, I thought it would have looked much better. And the abnormal hair and eye colors wouldn't be so damn bright. |
| Literally had chills when the music was playing! Kinda wanted to see and hear Kyouya playing too but oh well.... |

This seems probable, but his plan is also pointless unless they are also going to practice quartet pieces or have someone else step in as the other second violinist. Having a strings quintet with three violins, a viola, and cello is already unusual as most strings quintets add a second viola, cello, or sometimes a double bass. I've only ever been in one quintet with three violins, and it was set up more as a violin concerto with other strings, aka first violin gets a massive solo while the other four are essentially a small orchestra. |

| I am glad that they were accepted by the other members of the club... though would like to see Kyoya perform too. Looks like Ritsu is suffering on a disease that affects his motor skills or something. |

But it's certainly interesting that they're 'doubled' up as second violins, unless the translation was off, of course. (Which may not be that unlikely looking at the quality of crunchyroll's subs on this). |

That's also a really tiny number of available pieces for a string quintet with three violins. I'm not really sure what they mean by "doubled up" anyway, either they're playing a piece that has different compositions for both second violinists, or they're both playing the exact same second violin part in a piece meant for a quartet which is incredibly dumb considering that goes against the whole point of an ensemble vs an orchestra. |

That makes even less sense since the rest of the ensemble has to get used to two different violinists who have slight variations in their playing and I'm really overthinking this. lol apparently I have lots of feelings about this since music anime with violins features one of my few areas of expertise, and probably only one that's an anime genre at all unless they make a show about mech eng or dog rescues or the ability to watch a sickening amount of tv when studying for finals should really be the priority. |

| Not bad, the animation wasn't great. It was a straight forward character development episode. |
 |
| 1. The person who was leaving but turned back to listen reminded me of Len. 2. I didn't fully watch the 1st episode but was the question of why Kanada's violin so much resembles Kahoko's violin answered? (golden string + it looks very used) |

So yeah, it doesn't make much sense at all. Then, if we take out 'alternate' playing, and go back to a literal 'doubling', if they both played the same second part, wouldn't a [1:2:1:1] division cause an off-putting imbalance in the harmony? They're meant to be playing at a competition level, after all. It just seems awkawrd. (Given, I've never had any real experience with small-group dynamics, so that's just a presumption.) If so, that leaves either the pieces having split 2nd violin parts, (which would probably point towards them being more of a 'backing' group for the soloist), or there's been some miscommunication, and there's actually a third violin or a soloist part. Any which way, would make it harder for Lightblue to 'drop out' due to future 'misadventure'. I suppose they could always draft in another member to fill that gap. |
| ugh the main girl is just about as annoying as Kaho from Primo Passo, and that's the one thing I didn't want -_- All the guys are awful so far too. Close to dropping it at this rate .-. |
 |
| A bit melodramatic but definitely a strong episode, better than the first. |
