Mixed Feelings
Preliminary (6/12 eps)
I have to admit reverse harems are my guilty pleasure. I grouch about the mediocrity of them but still watch (or at last try to watch) every single one.

With this one, episode 6 is probably as far as I go.

Wow, such a disappointment. The original La corda d'oro was, for me, one of the best in it's genre. It made me fall in love with the classical music and its characters, it's beautiful and quiet love story.

This one is even worse than the average otome game reverse harem adaptation; even Kamigami No Asobi is doing a better job of keeping me interested this season.

The music is more like a background than something important to the characters even though it supposed to be the center of their lives. There are no memorable performances, nothing to really strike the chord. Even the ones that are supposed to be outstanding only make me want to push fast forward button.

The animation is poor, it's like the performer is a bad actor that pretends to play the instrument for the camera.

No character development or relationship development. Too many characters are introduced all at once and we only get a passing glance at them, but don't actually have the chance to get to know them and, as a consequence, start liking them. They are flat, cliché and not at all engaging.

The storyline is jumping ahead at the breakneck speed. It looks more like a collection of scraps from the different points of the timeline.

All in all, while I may have been a bit harsh some places, this is still nothing but a disappointment.
