I am writing this short post as a tribute to an exceptional anime which for me represented a little big masterpiece in Japanese animation due to the intensity with which it is able to transmit an infinite number of emotions to the watcher, including the splendid sound of the piano, the musical instrument which is the main element around which the entire plot revolves, up to a whole series of surrounding elements capable of painting the atmosphere of Japan like few other anime I think have been able to do, including a couple in particular which I love more than others, including Clannad, its sequel Clannad After story and Maison Ikkoku.

Your Lie in April is an anime which is really able to offers an endless amount of scenes with bright and intense colours, breathtaking scenes and landscapes of Japanese suburbs surrounded by the typical atmosphere of the japanese cherries blossom during spring season.



It's hard while watching this anime not to desire for a moment to be a Japanese student and to be able to live for once a typical Japanese school experience often depicted in many anime and which for many anime watchers look so familiar but yet part of such a distant culture.

The dialogues in Your Lie in April also constitute a fundamental element that proactively contributes to continuously transmit intense sensations, on one hand of profound discomfort due to the harsh relationship between the main protagonist Kousei Arima with her mother, on the other of intense musical emotion linked to both protagonists Arima himself and his violin player mate Kaori Miyazono with her never ending desire to pull the best out of herself while playing the violin, not just to prevail over companions during school music competitions, but rather, in order to leave a true sign in this world, which I agree, it should be in my opinion the only real purpose of every respectable artistic talent.

Almost useless to even mention it, but I also consider Your Lie in April one of those typical anime which really give the best if carefully watched with original Japanese dub, thanks to the exceptional romantic and emotional tone offered by its native language, even without necessarily understanding its words.

And this is what I also find so much fascinating about Japanese language....Its ability to transmit myself some emotions even without truly understanding it.
