Not entirely saying the story was bad, it's really good since stories about rock music are underrated, but I wish they could've taken out the romance since it was very frustrating and the drama felt bothersome and unnecessary. It’s mainly about music after all. And why do they have to make Izumi disappear all of a sudden? Who was the person who pretty much started Koyuki's journey to success? If it wasn’t for her, then Koyuki wouldn’t seek success as a famous guitarist. And lastly, I know we should be talking about music here, but in regards to the romance, Koyuki should've moved on from maho and find someone else better.

Also, I guess I'm the only one who finds maho super irritating. Despite that she is supportive to Koyuki, she can be very horrible, toxic, and... You obviously know why.

So what to do if you want your story to have unnecessary drama? Use maho. (could’ve get rid of that character even though she’s just a side character)

Exactly. I have never read the manga yet, but in the anime, you can feel the toxicity in the romance.
"Humans are like isolated islands, floating in the sea of fate.
Human encounters are like the collision of these lonely islands, and once they touch, there would be an effect. Sometimes, the islands would stick together, in the name of ‘interest’, ‘kinship’, ‘friendship’, ‘love’ and ‘hate’. But eventually, they would separate, walking towards the path of destruction.

This is the truth behind life."

Yeah it's weird how a lot of people find it cute. There are times maho would treat Yuki so horrible all because of some bullshit reason. But I haven't finished reading the manga so I don't know what will happen, though I've lost my motivation on continuing it after someone told me maho never changes and still is the same till the end. #mahosucks

I know right. God knows how many guys Maho slept with. She isn't a quality woman, whatsoever.
The way it was portrayed in the anime, made me think Yukio and Maho would stop talking and never see each other again. But I guess if they never stop talking ever, then the author could be a feminist, or he had to go against his original plan for those two since Beck is very highly rated.

The thing with Maho is that she sees Yukio as a backup plan, while the alpha male named Yoshito digs out her guts. Maho goes to the beta male (Yukio) and she is his shoulder to cry on when the alpha is treating her like a slut. This actually happens very often with numerous guys and girls nowadays.

That's right. It's same for me.
She was her childhood friend. Both had crush on each other.
But who knows, but who knows what happened into author to make separate?
It was too much frustrating that I didn't even finished anime.
I mean, what did see do wrong that he made her disappear for whole series?
