I come from a very heavy musical background- I started playing saxophone at a very young age, and have played for over 2/3 of my life now, including studying jazz at a conservatory. This anime hit me in every feel spot I could ever imagine. I can't begin to think of what anime could top this in terms of emotional connection to me and my past experiences. I cried, I laughed, I felt the pain and sorrow and anguish that these characters felt. The story was raw, emotional, or as the protagonist likes to say, "intense and rough."

In technical terms, the art and animation of ... this show is also unlike anything I've ever seen. The colors pop out at you like a supernova, with an array of visual styles and scenes drawing you in to this technicolor musical dreamland. This is one of the better animated anime I've seen, and you can very clearly see the love and care both the story directors and the animators put into it.

The only thing I wish of it was that there was more. I need in my life an entire series of this, an aftermath, a prequel, a side story. Anything. Now that I've seen this, I feel as if I will be disappointed in any other music anime I ever get a chance to watch.

I finished it for clarity, and I never got it.

As a Jewish person, this is by far the worst anime I’ve seen. The entire anime is just absolutely racist abt heavily anti-Semitic. It reads as if the plot was taken directly from Mein Kampf; “the Jews run the world, the Jews are out to get us, the Jews have the power to destroy us, the Jews are terrorists.” It’s honestly disgusting.

To the people that have recommended this film- have you never met a Jewish person? Do you feel as if this would be something to recommend them? If you haven’t met a Jewish person, ... I implore you to, and then please never show them this. Never watch it again.

I wanted to wait as long as I could for a possible dub, but after contacting Crunchyroll and getting a message back saying they can't bring dubs to every show, I took that as my cue to watch, and boy was it worth it.

The show is intense- extremely emotional from multiple viewpoints. It includes some hard discussions, great parenting, love, friendship, plenty of the characters that were popular in the previous adaptions, and so so much more. The story is starts great with a short sideshow in a different relationship that I can't wait to get expound upon, and continues into the wonderful relationship of ... Sasaki and Miyano. The places the relationship goes truly increases the viewer's understanding and relation with these characters- feeling as if you're there with them when all of this is taking place.

With a great segue into a new season, one can only hope that what lies next for the great couple is another great season.

This is seriously one of the funniest things I've watched on my sports anime journey.

The humor is great, the animation is made even better with all of the voices being exactly the same, the sound effects coming from the same voice, and the recurring jokes made me pause the video I was laughing so hard. The story is a cute one, but engaging enough to keep attention, and draws you in. The full-frontal nudity is... a bit unsettling, but it makes for a great story that I would recommend to most people.

I could see how other wouldn't like the story- the humor is gutter-ish, whilst ... being very dry. That said, I responded well to this type of humor, and imagine a lot of other people, especially older millennials, would as well.
