As they progress through middle school and their lives, she slowly starts to be uncertain about her feelings towards Kousei. Tsubaki was Kousei’s childhood best friend and always stuck by his side through thick and thin.

He went through quite a predictable and cliché coming of age but the way this coming of age is told resonates with audience so strongly that it completely outweighs the clichés that may come about.Īnother character that undergoes a deep character development is Tsubaki Sawabe.

He was always an outstanding pianist, but by the end of the anime you gain a new understanding and respect for the skill that Kousei shows. He started out as an awkward middle schooler who could not play the piano anymore, to a happy, and beautiful pianist that inspires the next generation to come. Arima Kousei underwent possibly the biggest character development out of all the main characters in the anime. The character development of the main characters are predictable but that absolutely does not take away from the impact that the character development has on the audience. However that is a very niche criticism that gets overshadowed by the intense and elegant plot progression. However, what holds this section back from a 10 is the world building aspect of the show could have been developed slightly better because some relationships and character interactions can seem contrived. The pacing of the show is almost always perfect with the right amount of speed to keep the audience engaged while also slowing down the moments that really need to be drawn out emotionally. In terms of actual plot structure, I believe that Your Lie in April is extremely effective. The general plot line is smooth with carefully woven plot twists and scenes of intense emotion that keeps the audience at the edge of their seat while also feeling all the emotions that the characters are feeling. The intense look into the lives of musicians even for a non-musician like myself was captivating because it opened my eyes to a new perspective that I could never even imagine. There are almost no anime out there that intertwine the impact of music on relationships.

After the analysis, I will be using my review and trusted anime reviewing websites in the community to come up with an overall rating for the show out of 10 and my recommendation.

For this review of Your Lie in April I’ll be discussing the plot, characters, and music/art. This anime ranks as one of my favorite shows of all time, as it takes a romantic comedy genre that is oversaturated in anime and provides twists and turns that even opposers of the genre can thoroughly enjoy. Your Lie in April draws upon awkward romance that gets the audience to fall in love with the show the minute it turns on. Your Lie in April is an intense look into the lives of musicians from all the joy and despair that comes with being a musical prodigy. Your Lie in April can be enjoyed by all audiences from seasoned anime veterans to anime newbies. Beautiful music, heart wrenching plot, deep characters and a beautiful art style wrapped in a 22 episode Anime.
