And just like that, I fell in love with Your Lie in April.
Story:9/10 - "I met the girl under the full-bloomed cherry blossoms, and my fate has begun to change".
The story is amazing! The main character is a piano prodigy, but after his mother died, he could never play the piano again. From that premise, the story progresses, devoloping in a beautiful, heartwarming and sad romance. It deeply connected with me. I loved the way they directed it. Sure, maybe the story is too generic, but nonetheless, it is beautiful and if you're the emotional type of person, you'll definitely cry watching it.
Art: 10/10
Not much to say, really. The animation is just amazing, and the visuals are absolutly astonishing. One of the best art i've ever seen.
Sound: 10/10
Absolutly perfect! The pieces that were played during this anime were trully beautiful and impactful. I'm listenning to the OST everyday on my phone and I just can't get tired of them (both the soundracks and the classical pieces)
Character: 9/10
This is where it can get a bit tricky. The main characters were really well explored. You can see how much they've developed in the course of the show, specially Kaori.
Carefull, small spoiler in the pictures (really not that big)

But Watari is left a bit behind. That's why the 9 and not the 10.
(Also, Nagi is so kawaiiiiiiii *.*)
Enjoyment: 10/10
Like i said in the beginning, I fell in love with this show. And once you fall in love, there's no going back. This anime brought color to my life and made my every friday a little more happy.
Overall: 10/10
If you are into music and romance, watch this. Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso won't let you down. Afterall, there's a reason it is top #17 right now.
