| Loved it! I think that I'll enjoy following this. =)) I'm glad to hear Yuki's voice again. |
 |
| Haha, Jazz. I'm glad they found something in common though XD |

| Dry, cliched episode. Probably won't continue watching. |
| semi-snorefest great animation though |
 |
| =/, People saying his drumming matched the rhythm, that really isn't hard if you blur the drumsticks however I will give credit where credit is due and say they did get a nice drumming soundtrack. However I would also like to say that I'm a little disappointed that this anime might revolve around just a Piano and drums... without the winds Jazz pieces just lack something. Also no bass... I dunno, gonna watch it definitely however was hoping they would incorporate pieces I really like however that isn't gonna work if their are only two people. |
 |
| I love the pacing of this. And wow is this anime refreshing. Definitely will be continuing this, Sen's and Kaoru's relationship will be exciting to see through :) |

Dont bother replying to my posts in forums, dont check them afterwards. |
| There were enough shonen ai shipping moments in that one episode to write an entire novel, I'm definitely interested in how this plays out. |
| Looks promising! :D |
| pew pew pew |
| Watanabe Shinichiro never disappoints. |

| I'm really hoping this doesn't turn out to be a Shounen-Ai. |
| This is gonna be awesome! |

| Really like the opening, this looks like a promising series. The pace feels just right and the interactions between the three main characters are intriguing. The historical setting is an excellent choice for homage to jazz, looking forward to where this goes. Also Sentarou reminds me of Kiyoshi from KuroBas. |
 |
| That was amazing :o Why have I buried this in my PTW for so long?! I'm an idiot >__< |

| I'm gonna like this anime, I already know it. Sasuga Watanabe and Kanno |

| Pretty decent start, you can already see where this is heading and well the characters are pretty interesting so let's see what the show will offer us! |
 |
| Oh MY GOSH! I freakin loved this episode !! I am thrilled , for real ! ^___^ I can't even name a reason why. I guess I just love everything about it <3 |
 |
| I can see what its going for here, but so far its a total miss for me. |
| Started because I wanted to see more anime directed by Shinichiro Watanabe's since I love Cowboy Bebop. I love jazz, and I usually don't like quiet/misanthropic characters but Kaoru actually warmed up to me as this episode progressed. When Ri called him by his first name I giggled. And characters (and men in general) like Sentarou I have a gravitational pull/fatal attraction towards. So the cast seems pretty lovable, I just can't wait to see how the plot develops. :) |
| Waaaaaaat a start! Brilliant, and '60 jazz? I'm buying it right now! Great percussion striking. I have great hopes for this show after seeing 1st episode. 5/5!!! |
| Dub = fake crap. Always. |
| Just started watching it but I have a feeling I will enjoy this. anime. |
 |
| Charming, beautiful, and pleasant for the ears. The show has already sucked me in. I can't wait to watch more of this later |
 |
| hmmm. I was really impressed by the animation/movements when Sentarou played the drums. Getting interesting, can't wait to see more episodes |

| I've been looking for an anime to fill the hole left by the completion of Nodame Cantabile. I think I have found that anime. The animation is great, the music is great, the characters are great (so far). Man...can this get any better? I'm only 1 episode in! |
| What an amazing start for this show, those 20 minutes pass by way to fast. |
  |
| Nice pacing. I really like all the characters and the music was really good. I can't wait to see more. Kaoru is pretty cute :3 His sister blaming him for playing the piano in the morning made me pretty angry o.o |

| Oh god. This is the Slice of Life anime I've been search for my whole life. I instantly recognised all the records in the record store. watching this was just pure bliss. The pacing is just like the swing of jazz itself. |
| I already like this .. :D |
 |
| wasn't really feeling the op, but after giving it a second listen i love it. almost as much as i love the first episode. setarou grabbing kaoru's hand and saying he has been waiting for him. <333 |
 |
| Decent start so far, the MC however did had me worried at first because of his edgy line at the beginning of the episode "i hate all of this" lol. I just hope we don't go into that "love triangle" bullshit territory. Great OP by the way! |

| 1st time rewatching, read the manga right before this. Amazing stuff. KimRyo and Hosoyan really fit into their characters. I love it. |
| Claire de Lune AND MOANIN, rofl I can't believe they have Moanin'... The Japanese can jam too |
| the first episode seemed tight... looking forwards to upcoming episodes |
 |
| I really liked the music in this. |
| :) |
| Captivating! As I picked the show up with no prior knowledge regarding the setting or premise, I was completely amazed. The atmosphere of the show, an amalgamation of the 1960s setting and jazz music, is superb, further complemented by the dynamic protagonist duo (or trio). The quality of animation doesn't disappoint either. I'm definitely looking forward to (binge) watching the following episodes. The (background) music is enchanting, nothing less from Yoko Kanno. |
| Damn great first episode, chemistry between Sentaro and Kaoru (Richie) is already fun to look at. Loved Sentaro when he was chasing Kaoru in the hallway :D Also, loving the jazzy vibe with the background music and overall feel of the show. |
 |
| Damn, I'm not into jazz at all but I loved his drumming. Bon and Sentarou have best friend quality written all over their face. That ending with Bon's walking was great lol, he is starting to like jazz. |
 |
| It's alright so far. Can't really tell how good it's gonna be from just that episode though. Loved the part where the guy played a bit of Clair De Lune :) Then I remembered this is gonna be a Jazz anime lol. |
 |
| Hahaha he took off his glasses when Ritsuko approached him. This show has serious character, can already tell I'm gonna love it! |
  ~ |
| Wow. This was so pleasant to watch, exactly what I needed. I was pretty reserved about this show, but now I am really hyped. |
 |
| nice first episode, seemed the typical school series but all changed whe the music arrived!!! Sen´s solo could be better, but it´s acceptable! kekeke |
| That was a fantastic first episode. Really well paced. Introduced three lovable characters. |
