Hunter x Hunter (2011)
(Anime)

-- The review contains spoilers-- So in “One Piece” we got dudes who wanna become pirates right? In “Naruto” we got dudes who want to become respected ninjas. Cool world settings, they’re simple but effective descriptions that can help drive a story forward. In “Hunter X Hunter’ we got dudes who want to be able to do whatever the fuck they please.

Your Lie In April” is about healing past traumas in the toughest circumstances. The protagonist who happens to be a victim of domestic abuse gave up playing the piano after the death of his mother. A secret admirer of his after being diagnosed with a fatal illness, takes it upon herself to use the last few months she has to live to bring the protagonist out of his slump by making him play the piano once more. “Your Lie In April” is NOT a pointless John Greene story that lacks depth, substance and diversity. When a drama / romance story is written in a way
