It's back! :D

Not only does this take us to the present timeline again but we also get to see how mature the characters have become. Nonetheless, we got pretty much a set up episode for the remainder of the new season.

Looks like we're getting the preliminary rounds results for now but more bigger performances are to come soon.

Why does nobody have the rights to this... Waiting for a fansub for a great series like this feels like I've been taken back 15 years.

Netflix has the rights to this
outside of Netflix Japan which is simulcasting they like to hoard all the anime and release them in one batch because they think they know what they are doing

when in reality they don't know how to handle anime at all
i'm sick of them and nobody invited them to this medium

Neta que extrañé mucho esta serie. Interesante ver el inicio enfocándonos en un Amamiya indeciso e inseguro sobre por qué o quien toca el piano, me sorprendió ver quien le 'echó la mano'. Espero mucho de este anime, mis oídos no pueden esperar al siguiente domingo.
No tomo malas decisiones, solo me gusta apoyar causas perdidas.
Disfruté Mayoiga, Ou-sama Game, Evil or Live, Mirai Nikki, Big Order, Arifureta, Ex-Arm, Tesla Note, Shuumatsu no Harem y Platinum End
nope les falle con esa, lo siento pero todos tenemos nuestros límites.
Así de jodido es mi gusto en anime, ¡Y estoy pinche orgulloso de ello!

Nobody made English subs for this yet. The only one you can download online is RAW version with no subtitle.

it's appalling how no one seems to care about such sensible series like this one. the only group fansubbing the episodes since S1 is painfully slow because they seem understaffed. I thought the netflix shit streaming would be worldwide... I miss my piano boys.

Back to the competition.

Those images of Rei-chan with baby Kai in the ending are always touching, but also weird she look just 12/13 years old. She was just a kid.

What a tragic production, the drawings are all over the place in inconsistency, the presentation lacks any kind of soul and sentimental drive this series should have.

I'm disheartened, first season at least were decent in that aspect. Just read the manga, none anime installation for this is really worth.

Right?
I also noticed that. baby Kai was too big for her. she looked like a child. did she get pregnant when she hit puberty. seems to me that she suffered alot as a kid!
Since they look almost identical then he is surely her son. wait. what if he was her brother maybe?

Crazy plot twist it would be, but I think they gonna make the anime only about music from now on.

^^Kai was born when Rei-chan was 15 and no there's no crazy plot-twist to it lol.

Hanae Natsuki was borderline unbearable for me (as I expected since he was first announced more than a year ago).
He can really pull off the little baby bitch whiny voice.


As for the ep. even considering the content which was mostly talking, it still comes across as "let's do this with the least amount of animation as we possibly can".

I checked her MAL page and it said that she had Kai when she was 15. I guess since she is Japanese she looked so young.

Good episode with some really poor artwork. The production was really awful for this, but atleast the substance behind the poor style was there.

I love how they keep the OP, but as for the ED. I missed the first one. Hope they did not change it.

Great episode, gotta catch upto this since it started airing so late and it's only fan subbed.

Adamski is a good guy, it's a shame he didn't pass but the guy's got heart. xD
The moment when he walked out of the building to find his sensei their was really emotional. :(

Congratulations to Kai for passing. :)

I thought the color designs looked quite better here but yeah they even went far to reuse background scenarios.. why!? :(

Anyway this was just another enjoyable episode as usual. Direction is little bit changed for better as evident by change of director.

Wow, the animation is bad but I don't care.

Well, Adamski failed while Kai and Amamiya managed to pass the first round.
