Ok this is BY FAR the most gut wrenching anime's that I have ever seen. As well as having an amazing storyline and character development I connect with it on a much deeper level as I am a musician myself. The art is extremely beautiful and full of life and colour (yes here in Australia that is how we spell it). The music pieces are the most amazing performances that I have ever heard. The technical skill coupled with awesome musicianship is mind boggling. Although I have not watched the Dub I can say that the voice acting in Japanese was amazing.
So if you want your heart ripped out. Hold onto your ovaries and ENJOY !!!
