Note: I rarely give 10 or 9. Thus, if it has 10/9 rating in a particular category, then it really overwhelmed my criteria. Overall - Well directed as the adaptation from the anime had been profoundly made the story livelier, meaningful and entertaining. Simply amazing! Story - Each of the characters is very unique which made the story unique. Idealism was conveyed precisely as incorporated in the reality of classical music industry. Hidden meaning and/or figurative interpretation of reality had been flawlessly embedded. Acting/Actor - The characters were portrayed brilliantly. Character to character connections had been portrayed with convincing and precise emotions. Music - Awesome choice of classical pieces. Outstanding! Rewatch Value - Just listening to the classical music had been enough. But what made this more rewatchable is because of the story made out of it with great direction and production and superb acting. Having said these, for people who love classical music with great story, it's now the time to have it on your "plan to watch" list or should I say "completed" list. Well for others, you may give it a shot and you'll never know, it might make your day/week. By the way, my criteria per review and how I rate each category are discussed in my profile.
