| Umimaku High School Orchestra Club's Regular Concert gets the green light, and it's all instruments go. First up, George Bizet's Prelude from the Opera "Carmen", which that goes without a hitch for the perfect opener, that Akine wanted to fight for so much in her past but could not overcome, it's just sad that all of her high and low moments were PowerPoint-ish, which is just not right. With the change from Akine to Haru, it's Tchaikovsky's "The Nutcracker" little overture, which showcases Haru's love for her mother, especially the Waltz of the Flowers, which Haru is inspired by Machii, from her graceful playing to her reading hobby. Plus, with the handmade bookmark made for her in mind (and the romance novel to help her in courting Hajime), she did her best, which leads to new opportunities for the juniors. As expected, both Hajime and Saeki are fighting to see Harada, because he's performing Antonio Vivaldi's "The Four Seasons" Spring and Summer sections with Harada leading the 3rd Years string ensemble with his violin solo. This is more evident with Takahashi who's in the same class as him, who has seen him in all sorts of flavours, the realism that they will not gel, it all proves otherwise on stage. Onto the Summer section, in the way like clouds and thunder, Harada will be the latter whie everyone supports him like surrounding clouds, accumulating in a flash of blue of an overwhelming performance. What's left is the BIG one: Dvorak's "From the New World". The finale episode, all accumulates in the biggest moment of their lives. Stoked for the finale? YES. |

| I hate that Akine big moment was basically a slideshow.. that should’ve been a really good moment. Kozakura scene ended up being better lol. The third years all got great scenes too. The emotional impact was palpable for everyone, the technical aspects of the episode just let it down today, which sucks. Even then, couldn’t help but get chills at a few of the performances. Takahashi and Harada stole the show in the episode tbh. Really beautiful backstory between the two of them. It’s always nice in high school stories like this to see everyone’s emotions coming to a head. Everyone is pouring their heart and soul into this concert. Next week finale. The two brothers take the stage. Excited to see it, but will be sad to see it end 😢 |

| The performance is good, especially I like the song performed. I also like the storytelling of each character is also very good so that it blends with the song. It touches my feelings and mixes them in one episode. Very good episode, I'm looking forward to the last episode. |
| Great. I knew the last concert would take a full episode (in this case even more - they will have to finish next episode) ... did not have a guess on how they'd do it. After having watched this episode though: It makes sense. Episode was easy to watch and felt short lol ... the way they used the different chars was pretty nice. I just hope in the final episode the last part won't take too long - so we can get enough "after show" stuff. One third of episode 24 would feel about right. For the last concert part. Then talking. Won't expect the father to show up anymore now. With the concert going into the beginning of episode 24. There is not that much time left. |
| The performances were beautiful, each one representing someone and we finally got more of Machi senpai as little as it might have been. Watching the third years only final performance made me emotional and it's time for their final performance together. |

| Some really great pieces and superb performances this episode, kept me engaged the whole time! |
