It's so amazing how music brings people together.
First I'll start with the story. I'll give it a 10/10. Arima Kousei is a great pianist and a a former child prodigy. He was tutored by his strict mother who always beats him whenever he makes a mistake. So he never made a single mistake in any of his competitions. This leads to people calling him his "mother's puppet" and a "human metronome." People say those sorts of this when they are jealous. That has happened to me a lot. His mother dies when he is small. After that he couldn't hear the sound of the piano. He gave up. Later when he meets a violinist named Kaori Miyazono his life changed. She encourages him to start playing again by forcing him to become her accompanist. Then she later forces him to enter piano competitions. He does this reluctantly. I am not going to write the rest, since it may contain spoilers for the series. That story was really interesting. It grabs the viewer's attention. Music, comedy, romance and tragedy, you has it all.
If you are a fan of Clannad, Nodame Cantabile or La Corda D'oro, you might find this very interesting.
Art : 10/10
Sound : 10/10
Character : 10/10
Enjoyment : 10/10 I enjoyed it a lot!
I can't seem to find anything to complain about this series. I just couldn't stop watching this. I laughed and I mostly cried. You will find out the TRUTH at the end. I have to say that I wasn't expecting that! It surprised me. But it made me happy. I am both a pianist and a violinist and I love music. That made me love this anime even more! If you love music and if you love anime, then this is what you are looking for!
