Your Lie in April/Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso
Synopsis:
Music accompanies the path of the human metronome, the prodigious pianist Kousei Arima. But after the passing of his mother, Saki Arima, Kousei falls into a downward spiral, rendering him unable to hear the sound of his own piano.
Two years later, Kousei still avoids the piano, leaving behind his admirers and rivals, and lives a colorless life alongside his friends Tsubaki Sawabe and Ryouta Watari. However, everything changes when he meets a beautiful violinist, Kaori Miyazono, who stirs up his world and sets him on a journey to face music again.
Based on the manga series of the same name, Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso approaches the story of Kousei’s recovery as he discovers that music is more than playing each note perfectly, and a single melody can bring in the fresh spring air of April.
Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso is a series that most anime enthusiast would never forget. If you haven’t watch this anime yet, you might consider to find time now and go watch it. This anime introduced be to classical music and with that, I learned to respect the creations of classical musicians. This kind of music is the best compared to the music we have right now because it has a deep meaning that anyone can freely interpret. This anime is a must watch and you should watch it in order to know what I mean by that.
