It doesn't get better

>>138292919

Finished today, manly tears all over

>anime about music
>tricked, it's not about music at all
I was disappointed. Nice animation and art, though.

>>138293407
You're probably a faggot if this show made you cry.

>>138292618
Ending didn't hit me as hard as some other shows have. Still a good though.

>>138293474
Well, it was sort of (very) predictable.

>>138292618
You've obviously never seen Clannad: After Story if this anime made you cry.

>>138293407
Did it reach her?

The soundtrack was surprisingly bad for an anime that claims to be about music.

>>138293592

It did

>>138292618
cant for the life of me recall the name

Oh, I remember those feels. The feeling of huge relief when I dropped this shit.

>>138293639
Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso
or
Your Lie in April

>>138293492
Maybe he cried at both.

>>138293656

Sucks to be you then, youre missing out

>>138293670
Thanks m8.

I watched the first ep and dropped it. Was hoping for something like Nodame. Worth picking up again? Hesitant since...the music sucks for a music animu?

>>138293695
It's alright, but not nearly as good or as music oriented as Nodame.
The art and animation is really the strong point - also, if you're into drama series.
Just don't pick it up for the music, because then you'll be severely disappointed.

>>138293695
I enjoyed it, it has some tonal inconsistencies but develops and delivers the theme very well by the end.
I thought the music was great personally

>>138293674
I cried at both. As well as F/SN (2006), Angel Beats, 5cm per second and Sakura Trick.

>>138293740
>Sakura Trick
u wot m8

>>138293740
Oh yeah I cried at Beats too as well as Ano Hana, Haibane Renmei and Tale of Melodies

>>138293787
Indeed, such great shows to shed tears to.

>>138293754
OK I admit I made that one up. Though maybe I actually did cry at it, can't remember.

>>138293712
>>138293724
I just did a quick wiki and yep. Yep, yep, yep. Music doesn't seem as integral as I would like. It seems like one of those j-drama soaps I'd watch if I wanted a good cry.

I'll save it for another day...when I feel like being down. (Were your tears cheap or real?)

>>138293740
>Sakura Trick
>5cm per second
Why?

>>138293832
Real tears

>>138293685
No he's not.
Was really disappointed when I finished them.
Fuck, what a steaming pile of shit that was.
Even something so awful like IBO is more enjoyable than that waste of time and resources.

>>138293740
>>138293787
>didn't cry at epic F/SN finale, which was actually sad, emotional, and genuine
>cried at ano hana fuckign stupid feelbait tearjerk

End my life, pham.

I wish I could cry to anime, but I'm dead inside ;_;
I've felt like crying a few times, but I just really couldn't - I mainly just choke up.

>>138293915
I haven't seen the former yet

>>138293915
AnoHanas ending is well done tho

>>138294062
Don't bother, it's overhyped shit.

>>138293434

This, I watched it expecting some good music etc. and got melodrama instead, I still enjoyed it, but never cried when Kaori died.

Oh hey is this the reddit thread?

>>138292618

The story is about a guy who quit playing piano, Actually let's be honest it's all about that blonde booty.

Our protagonist encounters a really hot chick who's totally digging him, which means there's only one logical course of action: She's gonna date his fucking best friend. Supposedly he is the biggest player ever but after 15 episodes he still doesn't seem to have reached first base. No worries homeboy at least you're scoring in footba... oh wait. Anyways, she abuses our protagonists's sorry ass into playing piano again because she can do whatever the fuck she wants. Because she's hot. Let's be honest, if the heroine looked like this.

there's no fucking way that guy would have started playing again.

This anime kind of reminded me of Code Geass in the way that we're supposed to believe the protagonist has an exceptional trait (for CG it's intelligence, for this one it's musical talent) while he never actually seems to actually display the talent. You're just supposed to believe it by the gawking audience who keep saying the playing changed midway even though there's not really any difference to be heard and people with overly emotional expressions.

Also I have a hunch that the makers of Naruto are actually involved in this anime because the amount of flashbacks to his mom making him play piano in his youth and hitting him is absolutely unreal. I almost thought this was starting to become a baseball anime instead. It's not like they even made a new scene they re-use the same scene almost everytime. In the beginning it's still pretty good but after 10 episodes this starts becoming so incredibly annoying it's unreal.

Our protagonists story is one of the dumbest ones yet. He can't hear the notes. Except he can. But he can't. Fucking get it? Me neither.

They are both under the illusion that music is life and like to do stupid shit like jumping off bridges. Good example for all the retards that take this shit seriously

Yeezus/10

One word: Forced drama

Sure seems that way.

>>138292618
And I never asked for MAL/Reddit users to post on /a/.
We can't always get what we want.

>>138294657

Drama for the sake of drama is forced drama in my book.

>>138294719
All drama is forced in your opinion

>>138294752
holy fucking shit stop biting

>>138294752

There's plenty of good drama out there. Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso isn't of them.

>>138294657

There was literally no point in her dying, or having the illnes in the first place. Drama for the sake of drama.

>but her death helped him to play again
They could have resolved that plot without shoehorning drama into the show.

>>138294958
>treating your mongoloid cartoons like fucking science
I didn't even like this show, but there's no such thing as "A should have happened instead of B" in storytelling. If the author's intent is to make a sappy tearjerker then he can use any device or element of drama he pleases.

>>138294780
jesus, yea, my bad

Dropped halfway through the first episode. Your move, reddit.

>>138295323
The couldn't hear music part.
