Fukumenkei Noise

Every day, a young girl wearing a mask stands by the beach and sings a nostalgic melody. After experiencing two sudden heart-wrenching partings when she was only a child, Nino Arisugawa has been singing her songs to the ocean, bound by a promise made with her two childhood friends—her first love, Momo Sakaki, and a boy who composed music, Kanade "Yuzu" Yuzuriha. Having never met each other, the boys both individually promised that if Nino was ever separated from them, her voice would be the beacon to reunite them once again.

After six long years, destiny has finally placed Nino, Momo, and Yuzu in the same high school. However, the passage of time has changed many things in their lives—while Nino relentlessly attempts to fulfill her childhood promise with the boys, Yuzu's feelings for her from the past resurface, and Momo goes to great lengths to prevent a reunion with Nino. Through music, will they be able to mend their friendship and overcome all the feelings involved in this complicated love triangle?

"Anonymous Noise" is a kaleidoscope of emotions, weaving a captivating tale of love, loss, and the unyielding passion for music. This anime is not just about melodies; it's a symphony of the heartstrings.
The storyline immerses you into the turbulent lives of Nino, Momo, and Yuzu, three individuals bound together by fate and separated by circumstance. As they navigate the labyrinth of their emotions, the music becomes their sanctuary, their solace, and their battlefield.
What sets "Anonymous Noise" apart is its raw portrayal of human vulnerability and resilience. Each character resonates with authenticity, struggling with their past, present, and the uncertain future. Nino's haunting voice echoes the ... pain of her loss, Momo's silence speaks volumes of his inner turmoil, and Yuzu's unwavering devotion paints a portrait of unrequited love.
The animation breathes life into the melodic landscapes, capturing the essence of each musical note and the depth of every emotion. From the poignant ballads to the electrifying performances, every scene is a visual crescendo, orchestrated to perfection.
Despite its moments of melancholy, "Anonymous Noise" is ultimately a testament to the transformative power of music and the indomitable spirit of the human heart. It reminds us that amidst the chaos of life, there exists a melody waiting to be discovered—a melody that speaks the language of our souls.
In the end, "Anonymous Noise" isn't just an anime; it's a journey—a journey of love, longing, and the eternal quest for harmony. So, let your heart be your guide and let the music lead you into the enigmatic world of "Anonymous Noise.

Mixed Feelings

In summary: It is perfect because of its soundtrack. If you have patience, you will enjoy it. It is short, and the songs are so catchy they will stick in your head.

An exemplary anime, contrary to the opinions of many who have viewed it, I found it to be quite captivating, despite its initial complexity. As the episodes progressed, the storyline gradually became clearer. I was particularly enthralled by the soundtrack; it is enchanting, and the choice of the vocalist's voice perfectly conveys the intended message.
Regarding the plot itself, the male love interest—whom the protagonist is enamored with—comes across as somewhat vague in all aspects. ... While his character can be understood, there remains an element of confusion.
In the end, the message of the anime was conveyed with great clarity: the overcoming.

Sometimes you just want to watch something trashy.

This anime is on the same level of stupidly, obsessively, melodramatic as Ano Hana. Take one main character with no spine or emotional stability, give them an emotional crutch for a friend, and then take it away! Sit back and watch as this child grows up increasingly maladjusted and in serous need of therapy!

But hey, I finished it.

I give one point to the anime because it's not grossly m I e, but then I have to go and take it back again because the art just isn't that great. Don't even get me started on the ... MMD level of cg animate for the concert scenes, and you have one mediocre anime. At least AnoHana was pretty too look at.
