We can't stay like this forever
Are those signs of Kaori breaking up with Watari?

And Arima must be going through some psychological pain if he's going to play that song.

The amount of deathflags in this manga is too damn high, though that's what makes it interesting. Oh come on Kaori, don't just hint all the deathflags here and there. And this chapter confirm that

I don't think that his mentor knew how cruel his mother was to him, and he never told the girl why he doesn't want to play the song. However, I think that making his own version of the song will help him put some distance between how he felt about his mom. It sort of seems like he was a illegitimate son since I never hear about a father and it would explain a lot of his mother's attitude with him, if maybe she had to quit music because she got pregnant - just speculationg.
As for the girl saying they can't stay together I was thinking she might move to a different area to go to a music school that's the way I was reading it more than her dying but you never know.

The only reason I rated this as 4/5 and not 5/5, it's because it didn't show what happened after Kaori told Kousei that she wouldn't be by his side to help him...

like, WHY.

He can't just get over his own drama huh? It was good at first, but I feel like it's been dragged for too long.
Those death flags though..

Oh my goodness, Kaori's death flag is raised so highly right now. I'm so worried. D: Kousei, keep playing the piano! Your mother would be proud~

I'm not sure if they're really dating in the first place. Maybe, I'm just blinded by how much I enjoy Kousei and Kaori's relationship. Was the indication that they're dating, when Watari looks away when Kaori calls him a true friend(plus their body language)?The phrase, "We can't stay like this forever" refers more to everybody not just Watari and Kaori. Youth obviously is short and fleeting, and April will end. However, it does hold another deeper connotation to Kaori. Just like the firefly she grasped, it doesn't seem as if she has much time left. She cannot keep shining along with the violin, and thus is "greedy" for more days, more time, and more smiles along with everybody. Spring is ending, and as April closes, Kaori's spring( or youth as it is commonly referred to) does as well. The title roughly translates to "Her lie in April."

Lots of different angles to take in this chapter.

Hope everything goes well at the concert.
