Opinion:

I've been watching really sad animes lately.. No.. I think almost all on this list are sad animes. I noticed that I have this thing on watching sad anime movies and series. Well, it's not that I just want to cry or something but.. I always want my heart to be moved or touched. Maybe, I'm just being emotional because of too much dramas that I've watched but I don't really know what's happening to myself, I just want to feel something realistic. I want something that could bring out all the emotions that exist within me. Sometimes you just want to feel something, anything. Even sadness is better than nothing.

As for this series, I was impressed on its meaningful story in a deep sense. It was made with creativity and for that I salute the creator of this anime.

As I watched this, curiosity began haunting me.. why does the title says "Your lie in April?" I was wondering about that... that I thought it will never give me an answer. Some other animes are like that, they always give me an unanswered question, but all my doubts and curiosity were answered at the last episode. It was a big plot twist that left a great impact on my heart. This show brought me to the same place I was after watching Anohana. I feel numb and empty, but also in a weird way, satisfied and relieved.

The one that hurt me most about this anime was the answer of Kousei's mother when he asked why did she prefer playing the Love's Sorrow music instead of playing the Love's Joy.. "It's because I want you to get used to sorrow..." I got so sad on this.. maybe it's just me but it really broke my heart.. No matter what life gives you, you have no choice except to give up or move forward. And both choices definitely hurt a lot. That is why diseases are the biggest enemy of mankind...and mankind's heart.

The ending? The letter scene? I didn't saw it coming.. I cried so hard. I thought I'm not gonna shed a single tear but I can't help it. The most overwhelming feeling right now is the unexplainable level of sadness. :( Now I know why does it says "Your Lie in April."

I absolutely recommend this!
