I kind of dislike when MC are pussies and pushovers. This one seems like a pushover. If he didn't wanted to go, then he should of taken her hand away and left. But then again, end of story.


the thing is that if he handt gone with them, then the Shounen tag wouldnt have been justified


What's wrong with having a warm smile convincing someone to come along? And what has this to do with being a shounen?

She plays the melodica, so she can easily play the piano. Personal experience.

Fucking love this show. My ideal anime. Glad I randomly picked this series because it wasn't been in my plans.

The character design and animation are so good to see. The overall atmosphere is awesome, didn't expect it to have such an lively atmosphere. The characters are promising, a lot I must say.

A 5/5

The art! The animation! The show itself reminds me of Nodame Cantabile. Really like the OP.

Kaori totally reminds me of Chtoge from Nisekoi as I thought she would. Kousei even called her vicious as Raku did.

Pretty good over all. A bit slow atm but I am sure it will get better and better. 8/10

I love classical music and anime about classical music so I'm definitely gonna enjoy this.
For now the character designs take some time getting used to and I'm not sure I'm sold on the cast yet, but it was definitely a start that has a lot of potential.
I probably regret this post by now.

It may only be the first episode, but so far I'm really loving this. It's simply gorgeous, and so far I like the premise. I kind of hope Koutei ends up with Tsubaki, but I guess it'll be more about the relation between Koutei and Kaori. Anyway, pairing or not, I'm liking this alot!

It was all right. I kind of enjoyed it, but it doesn't appear to be anything special to me so far. The comedy was seriously half-assed, and I'm still getting used to the character designs - though Kaori seems really cute. The artwork is nice.

I don't know if anyone has already said this, but I couldn't help but think that the four main characters vaguely remind me of Harry, Ron, Hermione and Ginny.

- dem details on those eyes
- OP is pretty good, likewise for the ED
- very comfy feeling as i watch
- artwork is good, animations are fluid as expected
- the comedy hits at the right times, i like it

dont care much about the music aspects, but will watch for possible drama, romance and school settings.

Nothing can go wrong with Goose House right? Hope I'm right, this anime seems to be off at a good start, tho lol @ dead mother cliche + give up on the thing that's been driving yur life cliche + hey a new blonde chick cliche + makes MC feel some kinda hope in the future cliche + OMG heartbroken childhood friend foreshadow cliche +....w/e done rambling lol.

Let's just say it's doing pretty good so far, as I quit piano (playing seriously) at like 12 lol, gunna see what this glasses guy does at 14yo

Despite being published in a Shonen magazine, this series does feel a lot more like a Shoujo and a lot its fans are female as well.

Everyone keeps comparing to this Nodame Cantabile; I found that anime to be a bore despite it starring my favorite voice actor and one of my top 5 voice actresses. This anime, however, gives off an atmosphere that just feels more interesting. However, its only been 2 episodes so it could bore me later on.

I'm impartial towards the childhood friend, their history and personality just seems to mesh well together. I'll probably start changing my mind once the story starts to really develop his relationship with the heroine though. Or maybe they'll do some sappy shoujo drama and make him end up with the childhood friend in the end. I wouldn't really mind that but then they'll need to give the childhood friend almost as much development as the heroine, otherwise it would just end up feeling shitty.

Well, the romance is definitely more like a Shounen.

If only it didn't had this whole love-square feeling going on, I could think it has potential.

And I like my MC having a tragic past, but felt like he followed her too easily at the end. Well let me just watch ep 2, cause maybe he isn't as traumatized as it looked.

I am 100% in love with this anime already from episode 1. I play both piano and violin and I love classical music. Though I think I'll get jealous watching and listening to them play XD.

I'm getting somewhat of a Pet Girl of Sakurasou vibe after watching this. I expect some kind of extremely "feels" heavy moment to happen eventually. Sakurasou is one of my top 5, so I think I'll enjoy this one just as much.

Wow! that was absolutely brilliant. A very solid first episode.
I loved how it was extremely faithful to the source material. I hope it never deviates from it.
The character designs are really beautiful. I don't think I've seen anime characters with lips before lol.
The art and animation were nothing short of perfect. Pretty sure they won't be able to maintain such high quality for 22 episodes, though.
The OP and ED songs are very catchy. I've lost count of how many times I have replayed the opening <3
Also, I'm really glad that Hanae Natsuki and Ohsaka Ryota are back again as the main male lead and his best friend. Couldn't ask for a more fitting duo.
I'm definitely going to enjoy the hell out of this series. My most anticipated fall anime better not disappoint me 5/5

I can already see the lost potential. Well i cant be sure after just seeing one episode, but i highly doubt that the character behaviour is going to change, so i cant really take this show seriously since it only consist of childish anime-clichee characters which annoy me very much. Like i said, it had potential to be deeper character-story about the tragety of the main protagonist, which some heart-warming moments and character development, but with those character what do you want to develope? you, as the audience dont really buy that he is sad and depressed... he has to tell you, otherwise you wouldnt notice (since everything is so wrapped up with childish clichee character-interactions)

The premise is often used but a story focusing on classical music is always likeable for me. Art looks pretty nice for an anime, but i personally dislike the characterdesign. Sound ofc the only interesting part about this show (they should have only focused the music)

Oh, gawd! If I had a mother like that, I'd hate the piano too. For him to get all battered and scraped like that, she must have been beating the shit out of him.

This based Laputa moment with Kaori.

@AussiePIka
Well she does say something like "[the topic] has switched from love interest to food interest". Not a great translation, but I've seen worse ones.

I really like how this is going. I'm hoping for a good drama, considering I've been desiring one for a while. Nice little hints of comedy as well. I am especially intrigued with the musical aspect.
