I didn’t actually think I would do one of these, but seeing all of my blogger buddies do recap posts got me in the mood to do it, too.

…That’s a bit of a dangerous mentality right there, oops.

Hibike! Euphonium – Anime Series Review

Episodes: 13 (+1 extra episode)

Genre(s): Drama

AiredApr 2015 – Jul 2015

Also Known AsSound! Euphonium, 響け!ユーフォニアム

SummaryAfter swearing off music due to an incident at the middle school regional brass band competition, euphonist Oumae Kumiko enters high school hoping for a fresh start. As fate would have it, she ends up being surrounded by people with an interest in the high school brass band. Kumiko finds the motivation she needs to make music once more with the help of her bandmates, some of whom are new like novice tubist Katou Hazuki; veteran contrabassist Kawashima Sapphire; and band vice president and fellow euphonist Tanaka Asuka. Others are old friends, like Kumiko’s childhood friend and hornist-turned-trombonist Tsukamoto Shuuichi, and trumpeter and bandmate from middle school, Kousaka Reina.

However, in the band itself, chaos reigns supreme. Despite their intentions to qualify for the national band competition, the band will struggle to even compete in the local festival —unless the new band advisor Taki Noboru does something about it.

From the studio that animated Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu, Kyoto Animation’s Hibike! Euphonium is a fresh and musical take on the slice-of-life staple that is the high school student’s struggle to deal with their past, find romance, and realize their dreams and aspirations.

Fall 2016 Anime to Look Out for

I’ve been meaning to do this for a while. With the new season almost upon us, it’s about time I talk about the shows that catch my interest. Is this boring post all that important? Not particuarly, but it’ll help me keep track of what I want to watch. Maybe it can help you make up your mind, too. It’s all opinion, so please don’t take offense if I didn’t mention a show you’re curious about!

Blog Status Update – IRL Stuff and Episode Reviews

Hi,

It’s been a few days since I’ve posted, sorry. Long story short, I suddenly found myself busy. I’m getting back into the local SSBM scene again, so that takes up like every Monday night and every other Friday night. Is Remy Fool really having a social life again? Well, if you consider playing video games with other dudes as having a social life, then yeah!
