I don’t really think she’s going to miss it. These subtle signs that something bad will happen are making me really nervous.

Damn it the second half was now a rushed adaptation. A lot of scenes (kinda important parts) had gone missing. And I feel there would be disappointment with this adaptation if this pace continues. But I hope that they will add the skipped parts somehow in the next episodes or they will cram up 3 Chapters again in one episode and if that happens I'll be really disappointed and get mad at them.

The new OP was not good like the first one. I Still prefer the fist one because the new OP making me sleepy that I always want to skip it. Not like I always did on the first OP Which is Hikaru Nara by Goose House. And the New ED was the same as the New OP which is making me sleepy that I don't want to hear it anymore, So I'll always skip this New OP and ED from now on What a big disappointment!
But the visuals of the New OP and ED was good though. But I still prefer the old ones.

I LOVE THE NEW OP the new ED is okay. Wow I had to watch this episode really late ;;_;; But omg is Kousei going to play alone?!! like maybe that was Kaori's plan all along I mean I think she only chose the piece after seeing it at Kousei's house?? The animation was gorgeous as always. The only complaint I have I guess would be the still shots. Granted, it might be the budget restricting it or time restraints or something, but the animation is so lovely that I wish they would do less still shots and just animate it?? but that was mostly just a problem in the beginning for me

Boring drama for the first half, same old myfriendlooksgoodwithmycrush blahblah. Did I just witness this series being rated higher than Nodame? Ah well, now it is overrated for real. I mean, it's good but not as good as Nodame.

Anyways, I like Kashiwagi. She is my fav. along with Emi.

The last five minutes were great. Nice new ED.

So... was she hospitazed? The blinds of cake shop were down.

Other than that, an ok episode. A bit too much of comedy if they went for drama.. bud I guess they just left it for next episode. Have to say I already miss old OP, the new one isn't as good. ED was fine but ominous and very sad.
Now I really don't want to guess what happens next.

Kousei needs a therapist, serious guy gets pushed into a pool and starts having flash backs and nearly drowns. This kid needs professional help.

Also I am getting tired of the constant flashbacks to his mom, I thought he was suppose to be getting better already.

Time for Kousei to steal the spotlight from that kid. I would have slapped him for being rude.

Hmm Kaori being late, could it be health related.

She might be in the hospital (again) puking her guts out because of her mysterious terminal illness or something to that effect. Thank you for the tension, I'm sure I'll follow suit because of anxiety.

Now that is over the TV series, re-start his vision to take advantage of the fact of not having to wait for the release of the episodes each week, we start!
Episode that I find very different from usual, just the change of OP and ED to testify that we are perhaps closer to a breakthrough.
Narrative that presents the usual contexts with an alternating serious moments and comic moments.
Drawings and animations good plot that seems to be close to a turning point.
Final twist, not so unexpected and not freaks me for anything, I felt the air already a possible breakthrough of this kind.

"Two people on a bike is forbidden by law." They just love to make sure I know that after every episode.

When Arima was taking Kaori home on the bike, I remembered that during Arima's performance he wondered what the starry sky would look like the next time they were together or something like that. This series continues to make great use of its imagery and invoking certain thoughts through showing rather than telling. I had a sinking feeling when Kaori's firework faded out the moment she said "I'm not thinking about the future yet."

On a brighter note, there's something romantic about the idea of imagining the music and creating images out of the sounds. I hope Arima is able to pull off another great scene next episode.

Read a spoiler in a fucking review without any warning so I can guess what happens next.

I really hate how I'm so oblivious to foreshadowing and death flags and whatnot but I guess that can also be a good thing :/

Nice new opening and ending song~
That twinkle twinkle little star. I like the atmosphere of their cake shop.
Kashiwagi-san is a pervert :3 Another Kaori death flag :/ Emi is <3
What will you do now, Kousei??

That moment when Kaori's firework went out and she took Kousei's one was definitely symbolic.I can't help but think that bad things will happen in the end...
Great episode, although as someone mentioned, i think art got worse.Hopefully it's going to get better again with next episode and so on.Now though...where's Kaori?!
Also nice OP and ED.


You are awesome for noticing that one, too.

Emi in disguise was so cute XD I like her so much better now, she's not as emotionless as I thought.

Despite some flaws and cheesy lines, this anime still makes me all emotional ;-;

New OP and ED are alright, but I liked the first ones more.

Enough death flags Kaori jeez :'( "I'm not thinking about my future yet" and not picking up her cell phone...

Also, Emi in disguise was pretty funny xD

That little kid was a prick but I think Kousei realized that he was in a similar place at his age and that's why he was courteous but still threw in the "The spotlight is ours" line.

Why.. did they get rid of my favorite OP theme ever :'(

The music and art in this show are really breathtaking

In a way, the show is sort of like all of their performances - technically, its pretty standard, cliché, and "boring, but something about... the energy and the effort put into makingit, and the emotions of the characters keep me coming back. Its really a beautiful little show

This episode in a nutshell:
– Violent bullying xD
– Mother complex 20204.0
– SLAPSTICK OVERLOAD
– "Man up Kousei, it's totally going to solve everything man" (I lost a bit of respect for you there Hiroko)
– Carbon copy of Nagisa Furukawa's family
– Engrish
– Fireworks
– More violence xD (seriously, please stop)
– Kaori not showing up OH NO SO UNPREDICTABLE

Yeah... apart from the moon symbolism this episode didn't have much going for it... I think I'll have to take back what I said in the last episode discussion

The new opening and ending are also worse than the first ones

But, on another note...

I'm REALLY glad that kid showed up and criticized Kaori. I don't agree with him about the music part, but definitely about the rest.

Finally someone had the balls to go and bitchslap our stupid main characters with the facts and the truth.

2/5 Just because of that kid

I owe this anime my life...it inspired me so much,that I actually begin to study piano...and I don't regret my choice.
It was a nicely paced into a combination between tragedy,loss,self-sacrifice,struggle and balance,ecstasy,delight and it's everlasting spirit.
Marking your presence in everyone's souls it's what it really is about so that people will know that you were there and you worth being appreciated,being treasured and most importantly,being remembered.I believe this is the most important lecture that must be extracted from this lovely plot.
