| Such a good -cute girls do cute things- stuff. Atmospheres and characters are lovely ^^ Thanks to Kyoani, it was somehow going with Reina and Kumiko route which I approaved at the beginning #LoveWin |

Steppenfuchs said: I'd like the series more without the yuri baiting. All these suggestive hugs and touches looked ridiculous and created too much drama on the forums. This was the best ship for me Yeah, those two were like made for each other. Riko had that "I'm going to give him my virginity and marry him" look. They already had started acting like a married couple. |

Doubledog said: Definitely one of my favourite anime, it's been a long time since something caught me like this. 9/10 Ditto. I wasn't expecting a whole lot from this show after I watched the first few episodes but by the end I was absolutely blown away. Awesome show, here's hoping they make a season 2. |
| Nice end. It's just to bad that we might have to wait a while for another season if we get one at all D: |
| The performance was fantastic! A great way to end the series. Euphonium had a simple but well executed story and was wonderfully animated. I really enjoyed it. A season two/movie sequel is all but confirmed. Our piece continues in...2016 I suppose :) |
 |
| This was real nice. Drama didn't feel forced either. Hopefully it gets a second season. Or at least a movie. |
| Yeah I was hesitant at first when watching, but I'm glad I picked up Hibike! Euphonium. Good finish! Expecting a sequel |
| This anime was really good! They did a decent job with the characters and story and the art was amazing and beautiful! Definitely hope there's going to be a season two for this or at least a movie! 9/10~ |

| Damn, I was sure to give this show a 7/10 but this episode was just too good. 8/10 it is. It's episodes like this that make the difference in a show, at least to me. |

| Knowing KyoAni, there could be a movie about Nationals! Great ending and series. I hope they bring romance in the sequel as well. Pls. |
| Beautiful end, hope we have a continuation to show the girls competing in the Nationals and possibly winning :D |
 |
| It wasn't too bad I guess , it was better than average. I liked the music and art. Some of the characters were damn annoying. I can honestly say though that the show doesn't have that many like-able characters. Reina , Asuka and Taki sensei were the only characters I actually liked. The main character was .... normal.... she didn't stand out in any way.... (At least that's what I feel). The series started as a 5/10 for me , however the last 3 episodes pushed it up to a 7/10 for me. I wouldn't mind a second season to see the overall conclusion however. |
 |
| Fantastic ending to a really good anime! Overall very very satisfied with this series. Everything in this show is actually pretty well done. Great character development, amazing detail in the music (which I think is really cool) and art is really good too! Also yuri ship. Looking forward to a continuation of any sort, be it a second season, a movie or whatever. Probably gonna read the novels aswell. Super high enjoyment, favorite this season, 9/10! |
| Reina playing her solo was really really beautiful! Reina x Kumiko FTW! 7/10 |
 |
| i can't find a download of the piece they performed. does anyone here know where i could download it? :( |
| I did definetely see the potential of this show, but I don't like what they made of it. The episodes felt halfheartedly put next to each other, there were many subplots for rather unimportant characters overshadowed everything. The bad atmosphere of this club was going on for too long, all the time they all looked as if being forced to play. Animations were amazing, but I only can offer 6/10 |

| That was a pretty great ending. 9/10 Irrelevant to the anime I also liked the yuri bait |

| How can people ignore the obsession and love of Reina by Taki-Sensei. What makes me believe that people ignore the facts, or are watching another anime. Do they ignore also the following scenes  Against facts there are no arguments. |
 |
Nananana ignore that.. and enjoy these official arts :D |
| My Reina x Kumiko scenes. Freaking adorable. Now my Shuichi x Kumiko scenes, kill me-- more like, I am already dead. KyoAni shut up the haters just right, hah. You guys wanted chemistry? There's that. And yup, Shuichi does notice everything about Kumiko like I said before. I am just so happy. sooo happy. I absolutely loved every second of it. From start to finish. Not just this episode, but the entire show. It was so, so good and refreshing and just... I just wish it would continue. It badly needs a S2. Like give it one, KyoAni. Please! It's your best anime in a while. Or maybe THE best one. So many good things about it, so many. Just... 100/10 I WANT A S2! |
 |
| The series was super cute and I fell in love with all the characters. But is it just me or could the music score have been much better? Seeing as how it was a music anime, there wasn't really anything special or exceptional about the soundtrack, unlike Shigatsu, which pulled through amazingly, both music and character-wise. It would have also been much more entertaining with more music theory elements and the importance of symphonic groups and stuff, but there wasn't much of that either. Besides having nice instrument visuals, Hibike was just another Kyoani series that I was a little more disappointed by than usual. |

| What an awesome last episode! The performance was just....beautiful and stunning! That was a great way to end the series! Overall 9/10 this is a great series~ |
 |
| It was worth waiting untill it finish airing. Great year for anime industry :) Im surprised they didnt go with Tamako, K-On and Chuunibyou art and animation style. |
 |
| KyoAni needs to stick with adapting actual novels rather than light novels. Hyouka and now Euphonium show they can deliver far more than what other animation studios can. 9/10, KyoAni does it again. |
| They had me when ponytail Kumiko returned, I really prefer that hairstyle instead of her usual one. Performance was well done, almost as satisfying as kimiuso though I know nothing about music so I guess I can't judge. Overall great watch, 8/10. |
| Good stuff... My 2nd fav. KyoAni music anime... :D Reina is the Best... Finale - 4/5 Series - 7/10 |
 |
| The result announcement was such a nice thing to see, rolling it out high like a painting I'm glad they have reached the nationals as a closure, but to me it still feels to short to say goodbye to all of them Hoping for a continuation |
| Such a beautiful show. Second season please! |
 |
| Dank show. I enjoyed this a lot more than I thought that I was going to. Gimme dat second season (no recap movie/s), KyoAni!! I need more Reina x Taki-sensei and Kumiko x Shuuichi. |

| Good enough finale.....thought that kumiko was just lip-syncing the whole program. |
| That was awesome :) Went into this show without any expectations and got blown away. |
| I'm really hoping for a second season, I need more Asuka in my life! Also at least one Asuka/Kaori scene so I can die happy. |
| It was definitely a pretty show and the music was nice, but that and yuri baiting was all it really had going for it I would have liked to had seen more of kumiko and reina's relationship. It was really the only thing i found interesting. Hopefully this will get a sequel, because it was a decent anime overall and it has potential 7/10 |
| dunno if 7/10 or 8/10 but 8/10 for now because it reminded me of my high school practice days. really just watched this due to hearing good things about Kurosawa Tomoyo's acting, then I listened to the ed of Yuki Yuna is a Hero and she's there and her acting there is just normal so I wondered what happened. Now adding her to favorite list. Can't believe I didn't watch the best spring season show while still airing. Still 2015 is shit for new titles. edit: Thanks to watching this, I've been always thinking of my high school days so nostalgia wins 8/10, unlike others 8/10 is a worth watching score to me, just noticed people easily giving away 10/10 score, or at least in the threads I bothered reading from page 1. I heard this is yurishit so I avoided watching this until recently. Yuri is real, the shit part is so wrong. Best 2015 new anime so far. |

| Really cool, that show surely took me by surprise, I didn't expect much but I liked it a lot. Nice cast, drama doesn't feel forced and some good music. The episode was good way to end the series and I really liked Kumiko's and Shuuichi's short moment, they are good together :3 |

| I'm shipping the yuri. But something tells me the guys are going to steal the show should there be a continuation. The picture, the fist bump scenes are just too mysterious.. But of course reina x kumiko are just bound by their 'confession of love' and will stay together for the rest of their lives. I may be expecting too much because of how amazed I was with shigatsu, that I wished that they would complete the performances and not cut the parts out, especially the sunfes episode. And maybe at least show some competition by showing what the two other known schools (rikka and rakushu or something) can do. I know I know.. I may be asking for too much for 13 episodes. There's a lot more stories to tell, maybe an ova of the previous year where the whole issue happened with the current and previous seniors. And then there's Asuka's attitude that looks as if there may be more to it. I definitely loved the show! The whole art and animation was amazing, reina was just too beautiful during the festival. I'd definitely fall for her if I was kumiko up there. The ending was just bittersweet, I couldn't ask for more. 4/5 for the ep, 8/10 for the show. Thanks for a great experience Hibike! Euphonium! |
 |
| Amazing ending, really satisfying. Season 2...? I need more Reina And so it's revealed that Taki-sensei... is actually a pedophile?? EDIT: I always enjoy the type of anime about people working towards their dreams. Sometimes the happy endings are the best endings, like with Golden Time. OH and I think this is one of the few times (or only time) that I support the yuri ship ReinaxKumiko ftw And I got a new fav character |

| I had pretty low expectations coming into this, but was quite surprised by all that happened in the 13 episodes. Loved this concluding episode with the band moving onto nationals. |
| The series went downhill since episode 5 or so, and never recovered wholly. It still has its great part, but never fully great. The music for one, was pretty nice. I guess the best Kyoani could do is to end it here, huh. Well I wouldn't mind a second season despite all I said. |
| Honobono Log - best slice of life short -------------------------------------------- most kawaii loli overlord ---------------------------- Donquixote Doflamingo AMV - Control |
| I approached this with very low expectations, like so many others I assumed this would be K-On all over again only to be proven wrong. This turned out to achieve a perfect balance between drama and music with just enough comedy to keep it going without bogging it down. If were to make a complaint is that I wish there was more of Asuka, she was such an intringuing character that would love to find out more about. But even that may be for the best as it keeps her charm as something of a mystery intact. Overall, extremely well accomplished and I am very glad I gave this a go. |
