I n this respect, it is unfair to not mentioned the little known OVA prequel to the anime. And ironically, beyond a couple of performances-which disillusioned Arima a bit-they had very little role to play. Aiza Takeshi and Egawa Emi-the main rivals of our protagonists. Let me bring to light the two main side characters to the story. There were many side characters who just came in and went, with little to no impact on the flow of the story. The characterization was perhaps the weakest point of the anime. In life and in death, this anime is one which will reinstall your faith in the power of love, and music. When Kaori and Arima fought when Tsubaki cried and suffered the burns of jealousy when Arima landed in the stage of self-understanding and the foundation of happiness and truth on the base of the sorrow when transcendental love rose beyond the borders of place, time and even life, you will find yourself strangled by a story which demands your complete attention. An extremely well paced story, I promise whether you like romance or not, this story will engross you. Though I’m not saying that the story was not without its fault-there were instances where the drama seemed too forced. Sometimes it was sweet, sometimes it was sad, sometimes it was outright bitter, and sometimes bittersweet. Their fights, their struggles, their hopes, their dreams, all were resonating beautifully at the canvas of the storyline. Every second revealed the mental state of the characters. Being a tragic story, it’s unsurprising that the salsa of those emotions were mellowed with a slight taste of bitterness and sorrow. The emotions, simply put, are omnipresent. It is paced beautifully, smooth as a butter, consistent like the steady trot of a jersey pony, true like the daily rise and set of the Sun. Not a single episode passed without some emotional development. The story was beautiful, romantic and melodramatic. Ones who think ‘I’ll be darned if I do this’ or ‘Why don’t you play it?’ That’s how you create the most beautiful lie of all”-Kaori Miyazono “ You pick it up again…and you sit before that score.
That was the magic of Kaori Miyazono, the lie behind the success of Kousei Arima. But that music must resonate from within. “Everyone is afraid to go up on the stage”-empowered by this mantra, she frees Kousei out of his own prison of music scores. She pulls him out, from that labyrinth of depression and fear. Under a rain of cherry flowers, Miyazono Kaori -“Extremely violent, leaves the worst first impression” – appears and makes Kousei fall head over heels for her. On his fourteenth spring, the monochromatic world of Kousei Arima vibrates with an aurora of lights once again. A beautiful flower bloomed in the midst of the winter winds. Tsubaki Sawabe and Watari Ryouta embrace him with all their might-to save him, and in turn, their friendship. It was in that pensive, disconcerting moment that two of his closest childhood friends come to help him. Like a drowning man he gasps for the sound of the notes. His inability to hear notes strangles his breath. A prodigy of classical music from birth, Arima was the youngest champion of the Seikei championship. His world loses all colour when past the traumtic of the death of his mother, he loses all ability to play the piano when eleven. Waves and tides of emotions crash all around him. The story follows the trails of Kousei Arima, as he journeys through a stormy sea of emotions, pain and revelations. “ The Autumn I was eleven……….I could no longer play the piano”-Kousei Arima The second part would be my personal take on the anime-the songs, the mysteries, the moments, the lights, and the lie that was made in April. The first part would be a review in itself, the second part would be an opinion based general discussion -ex tremely prejudiced, extremely predisposed, extremely coloured, extremely biased. I would like to present this review in two parts.
