| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Well, this episode was kinda interesting. We see Kousei playing on stage and there's the usual transition between the flashbacks from the past. Even during his younger days, it looks like he suffered mentally after what happened in the past. "I can't hear the notes". Yikes. An overall intense episode. I like how Kousei was able to play the piano very well unlike previously. Quite a development there. Oh my Kaori...  http://imgur.com/Uu5Smua Now I get why the episode repeated sorrow especially with that ending. |

| He overcame himself and proved that violinist girl is a great musician. Then when it's time to not hear the music, he heard sound, so he was able to improve. The real feeling was shown in the friend's memory. Oh, so his mother was being harsh because she was frustrated at her life not left and cares about her son. And that friend of the mother's friend felt guilty when he started to lose the sound. His performance affected that little boy so that he can think of doing the fullest. Childhood girl feels that he's different. So the violinist girl was in the hospital. |

| They ruined this episode adaptation in my opinion, didn't enjoy it at all really dissapointing. |

| It really was nice to see Hiroko and Kousei's mother in the past. Seeing Saki's warmth towards Kousei was a really nice change of pace. Her desire to leave something for Kousei, wanting more time and trying to prepare him the best way she could. Being able to face sorrow and being able to make a living. It was also nice to see how Hiroko changed after seeing Kousei getting into a concert. Kousei's concert by himself was great! Being able to play the music in the way he knows best. and finally moving on from his weakness. Tsubaki showing some reaction after seeing Kousei. Only through tragic events would his music grow... that is really depressing T.T |

How different was it that made it a disappointing episode for you I had enjoyed this episode, the whole background on him and his progression towards being a better musician, and the foreshadowing of what is to come. |
| That was a good performance. The audience was in awe of that performance that they didn't want to hear the little boy play. That was kinda sad but he still played. |
 |
| Nice performance. Lol that song in regards to her husband.. And koharu's headbutt xD Bloody death flag again |
 |
| The parts at 8:11 and 11:27 keep giving me the chills... All the flashbacks aside, they really know how to amplify the music to fit the mood of the anime. The first half was probably one of the most captive 13 minutes I've watched that doesn't include any sort of action. Of course, this is coming from a guy who listened to this song countless times once after reading the manga, so the immersion for me was definitely there. I think they did a successful job of adapting the manga, although some people here don't seem to think so. |

| Death flags galore! |
| Oh god who are you people? |
| Scored this episode somewhere between 5/5 and 10/5. The piano playing really makes a difference to the emotion experienced when watching rather than reading. |
| Good episode! So many emotions T_T I have to admit, it got in my feels |
 |
| couldnt stop crying |
| Hate Keeps me warm |
| Saki's smile was so beautiful :O Did she have ALS or something? :( The feelz when u realize all the symbolism and true meaning behind all what was being said. > Saki: "I'm playing the sorrow version so u can get used to sorrow" > His growth is spurred by sorrow > If he wants to move down this path he'll need to suffer more sorrow DAMN!!!! T^T Why u do this D: |

| Idiot husband...better brace yourself.....or I'm gonna step out on you, oh Hiroko's rant lol |
| yeo |
| I cried. Second time after Clannad AS. I need some moments to regain my composure. |
| I'm Sad to see Katori in the Hospital, i knew it was coming but still :c Anyway Kousei performance was great! |
 |
| Tears overflowing ;_; Those "Look at me." and orbs of light. Another speechless performance confirmed by the audience. Kousei wanting his performance to reach his mom. He finally said goodbye to her. Kaori! (T⌓T) |
 "Later on, you will become a lively person causing headaches as the shrine-god." |
| Another sead episode :/ It was nice to see Kousei overcoming his problems with his mother, but the foreshadowing in the end implied that Kaori is probably going to die...I hope she doesn't die :( |
 |
| That moment when you feel guilty for hating this person.. :( Another great episode! But am i the only one who feels that the pacing got faster compared to the first half of the anime? I am not reading the manga so I really dont know if its just me. :D Anyway. that last scene though... i had already braced my self last week to be prepared to know what happened to Kaori but, I STILL DONT WANT TO BELIEVE WHAT I JUST SAW.. I know its pretty obvious that there's a big possibility that she would die but i hope she can manage to survive until the end of the anime.. 5/5 for this episode |

| We all know that Kaori has a sickness of some kind but if they let her die I'm going to be outraged ヽ(ｏ`皿′ｏ)ﾉ Nonetheless pretty good episode ^-^ |
Fuck Signatures... and irony  |
| I like Kaori, but if she will die, it will make this anime remembered. If she will survive and it wiill be happy ending, I forget about this production fast (like almosy everyone) |
| Dub = fake crap. Always. |
| So far this is the most beautiful episode. It was very emotional. And though I love manga, I prefer anime, because we can actually hear all this music, and this is the point of this series. Damn, it gave me chills. |
 |
| After learning the reason behind Kousei's mother's actions, does anyone sympathize with her? I do. |
 |
| Almost shed a few tears when Kousei started crying. Very intense. Loved this episode. |
| Currently obsessed with: One Piece, Hunter x Hunter, Your Lie in April. |
| Someone be chopping onions Great backstory accompanied by Kousei's music. Have to wait another week to find out what Kaori is ill from. :( This show is damn cheesy but the personally the right kind of cheese for me >_> |
| They should really get that window replaced. |
| the official MAL hall of fame/cursed comments is now open for business - you are welcome to PM me any potential quotes to include |
| We finally understood what was happenning in his mother's mind (even though we already had an idea) when she was being so harsh. Really nice episode, we saw an improval in Kousei's plays and we can only expect better plays to come. I'm still waiting so much for the ost, 6 days left huh. I'm giving it a 4/5 or a 4.5/5. Either way, I can't wait for the next episode. |
| I started crying like a bitch when Kousei sobbed into Seto's arms. |
| uso... ne? :/ sorrow is more powerful than love? : |

| Call me evil but i was hoping the episode would end with Kousei finding out Kaori's dead. |
| they ruined this part? i read the manga and i found this episode to be fucking fantastic. easy 5/5 |
 |
| Another death flag, it's getting old. Great episode though, since I don't read the manga so idk if they ruined it. The 1st half made me feel like shit, dunno if it was meant to be emotional. It hit home. 4/5 |
 |
| Wow that episode made my eyes water. Dammit that ending of the episode practically confirms Kaori's death now. I'm not even sure Kousei could recover from such a loss. |
 |
| It gets tiring to comment over each live performance, but thats how they like to express their feelings and thoughts ("its no good if its not in front of everyone"). I don't really care for Rachmaninoff but it pretty much fit the ocasion, and it was good to see they didn't cut the music or repeated the same thing over and over (like they did when Kousei played in that competition) yet I would prefer if they didn't added any effect (I wish they would never do that in first place, its like they don't know what to do but still proceeds to come up with something just for the sake of it). But the whole episode (as well the anime) could be a lot better if they didn't made it overdramatic and pompous. Theres too much make-up it doesn't look cute anymore, I guess everyone feels the same. Mod Edit: Removed quote of edited post. |

| I almost cried... |
| Wow, what an incredible episode... Kosei finally letting go of his Mother's death, and saying goodbye to her... And he does so by playing the way she used to long ago. I was all teary eyed. |
 |
| I cried so much man !! Best episode so far. 5/5 |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| Kousei got over it. He did it wow...speechless... |
| Great episode.I absolutely didn't cry, cause i'm a real man...sniff. VanishingKira said: You do know that this show IS most entirely about Arima getting over his past/problems? it's not about his carrier, but about how he gets over what he couldn't before, because he met Kaori.I get a feeling you are expecting something way different from this show, like him becoming bigger and bigger as musican, but i think that that's not what this show is about.Only good thing that happened this episode is that Amira finally got over his mother situation...only took 13 episodes. |
 |
| Haven't seen this episode yet, but there are 55 5/5s and no 4/5s at all. Oh damn. |
| I actually cried, what a crazy episode. Dunno what to think about it. Gave it a 1/5, but it's somewhere between -10/5 and 10/5. It's full of emotions, but so mixed up that it gives me the creeps as well. I am dropping this thing as soon as she dies (which she probably will). They will probably force some kind of happy/mediocre ending to it then. The only way to finish this, in case she dies, is for him to have a mental break down and give up on the piano for good.... I mean what the hell :'( If she is gonna die, at least make it sudden and not with all those dead flags. |

| I'm Sad to see Kaori in the Hospital, i knew it was coming but it still sad :C Whatever, Kousei have a really nice performance xD This was a nice episode, sad in the final, but a really good episode xP |
| Well, i liked this episode... alot. I'm keeping my eyes closed to the overly-heavy drama, and i found out it's much easier enjoying the show that way. Kousei solo'd the performance. Looks like he finally got over his issues, and the mom just went from a demon to the ideal mother. Ah, moms.. . Saki's in heaven now, along with Izumi Shinichi's mom, and Kousei finally understands that he needs to move on - the doubt is gone, and so is his mother's shadow. That little girl... another member added to Kousei's non-official harem. Emi seems to have enjoyed the performance (in more ways than one) and Tsubaki's kind of a mystery to me now. Don't tell me she's one of those girls that simply like someone because of his inability. Why else would she be disappointed that Kousei has overcome his weakness? Can't get enough of that ending... 5/5 I have a question, guys. Is Kaori going to die? I mean, i just don't know... for the past few episodes there were some things going on with her, something like hints, maybe? I just can't put my finger on it... Seriously though, A-1, stop it. We. Freaking. Get it. |
