An anime television series adaptation by A-1 Pictures aired from October 2014 to March 2015 on Fuji TV's Noitamina block. A live-action film adaptation of the same name was released in September 2016. The series has also been adapted into a stage play, a light novel, and it was set to be adapted into a musical, but it was canceled.

Plot

Piano prodigy Kōsei Arima dominates various music competitions and becomes famous among child musicians. When his mother Saki dies suddenly, he has a mental breakdown while performing at a piano recital; this results in him no longer being able to hear the sound of his piano even though his hearing is otherwise perfectly fine.

Two years later, Kōsei has not touched the piano and views the world in monochrome, without any flair or color. He resigns himself to living out his life with his good friends Tsubaki and Watari, until one day, a girl changes everything. Kaori Miyazono, an audacious, free-spirited, fourteen-year-old violinist whose playing style reflects her maniac personality. She helps Kōsei return to the music world and shows him that it should be free and mold-breaking, unlike the structured and rigid style Kōsei was used to. As she continues to uplift him, he quickly realizes that he loves her, although she already likes Watari.

Later, while performing together, Kaori suddenly collapses after a moving performance and is hospitalised. At first Kaori says that she is anaemic and just needs some routine testing, but this is revealed to be a lie. Kaori is discharged and back to her happy self, inviting Kōsei to play at a Gala with her. However, Kaori fails to show up on the day of the Gala, and as her health deteriorates, she becomes dejected. Kōsei plays a duet with Nagi Aiza, in the hope of motivating her. After listening to it, Kaori opts for a risky surgery that may kill her if it fails, just so that she can play with him one more time. While playing in the finals of the Eastern Japan Piano Competition, Kōsei sees Kaori's spirit accompanying him and eventually realizes that she has died during the surgery.

After Kaori's death, her parents give her letter to Kōsei at her funeral. The letter reveals that she was aware that she was about to die, so she became more free-spirited, both as a person and in her music, in order to not take her regrets to Heaven. She also reveals that she had been in love with Kōsei since she was five, and was inspired to play the violin so that she could one day play with him. Her supposed feelings towards Watari was a lie, fabricated in order to get closer to Kōsei without hurting Tsubaki, who also has limerent feelings towards Kōsei. After finding this out, Tsubaki confronts Kōsei and tells him that she will be by his side for the rest of her life. Kaori also leaves behind a picture of her as a child coming back from the concert that inspired her, with Kōsei in the background walking back home. Kōsei later frames this picture.

Characters

Kōsei Arima (有馬 公生, Arima Kōsei)
Voiced by: Natsuki Hanae[3] (Japanese); Max Mittelman[4] (English)
Played by: Kento Yamazaki[5] (live-action film); Shintarō Anzai[6] (stage play)
Kōsei is a former child prodigy in playing piano, dubbed the "Human Metronome" for his near-inhuman mechanical accuracy, a product of his mother Saki's overly strict methods of teaching. His ability to play the piano with unparalleled precision led him to win many competitions across Japan and even be invited to play abroad. When Saki died, the resulting psychological trauma caused him to be unable to hear the sound of his piano playing, and he gave up on it. Two years later, he takes up the piano again after being convinced by Kaori Miyazono to become her accompanist. Influenced by her emotional and unrestrained playing style, Kōsei eventually finds himself falling in love with her. He, however, does not confess his feelings due to his belief that she likes his best friend, Ryota Watari, which is later revealed to be a lie just to get close to him.
It is later revealed in Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso: Coda, a side story from Kōsei and Tsubaki's childhood, that his inspiration for playing so beautifully in his first competition was to cheer up Tsubaki after the passing of her grandmother.

As their friendship grew, she eventually convinced Kōsei to play the piano again, first as her accompanist and later in a piano competition. It is revealed at the end of the anime, in a letter addressed to Kōsei after her death, that she had asked to be set up with Watari in order to meet Kōsei, knowing that Watari and Tsubaki were good friends of his and that she had been in love with him since she was five, and merely thought Watari as a friend.

Reception

Manga

Rebecca Silverman from Anime News Network rated the first volume of the manga a C. She praised the page setup, the way music is expressed in the book, and Kōsei's backstory, while criticizing it for backstory that was not as emotional as intended, Kōsei and Kaori's friendship, and the drawings of the characters' faces.[56] When reviewing for The Fandom Post, Sakura Aries praised the manga's plot and characters, while criticizing the artwork, calling it "mediocre" and stating that it "takes away from the emotions of the performances".[57]

The manga won the award for Best Shōnen Manga at the 37th Kodansha Manga Awards.[58] It was also nominated for the 5th Manga Taishō.[59] The first volume was also one of fifteen manga series to rank on the Young Adult Library Services Association's top 112 graphic novels for Teenagers list in 2016.[60]

Anime

The anime was generally regarded very well by critics. Nick Creamer from Anime News Network gave the series a B+.

He also added that if the emotional appeal doesn't work for the viewer, the emotions of the series can be lost.[62][63] Andy Moody from THEM Anime Reviews gave the series four stars out of five. Like previous reviews, he praised the animation, music, and the character drama, while criticizing the attempts at humor and adding a similar note about the ending.[64] When reviewing for The Aurora Chronicle, musician Mithran Jeyashankar gave heavy praise to the series' soundtrack, saying each song perfectly suits the tone to help increase the emotional impact.
