God that was one of the best works I've read so far on this site. God the main relationship is so cute and endearing and like frustrating but in a good way? (so many works i've read where I'm just punching the wall cause I'm so irritated but it wasn't the case with this one).
The side couple between Chika and Sakiko was one that I adored and it nearly overtook the main relationship in my heart honestly, it was so interesting and fun and I loved their dynamic and history overall.
One thing I'm kinda sad about is that we really didn't get any reveal or conclusion about Ema's life or lover huh. She was nice and a good support character but I feel like we never really got to explore her as a person compared to the other members of the cast.
Overall, amazing story, great characters, literally what hibike euphoneum was trying so hard to be. And aside from the romantic aspect, the way they explored and played music got me all hyped up and gave me flashbacks to when I was in my high school band and made me want to start playing again. Just... UGH so good
