March Comes in Like a Lion

March comes in like a lion pacing and developing carefully, every move leads to a new consequence. One of the most beautiful exhibition in Sangatsu is a conflict between the security of the sensation of being home, and the personality of Rai himself of going forward endlessly.

Non depressing slice of life Gets better as the story progresses Season 2 is much better Upcoming season will be too

Simple story,but amazing writing,beautiful animations, extraordinary soundtracks,great character developments turns 3-gatsu no lion into something special,like a precious red diamond..

Loved how the writer focused on daily life struggles and depressions,but heartwarming at the same time...

This is a slice of life anime is with themes of sports, romance and comedy. Plot line covers the coming of age tale of a 17 years Shogi (Japanese Chess) player called Rai. As is with most slice of life animation, the storytelling is slow but full of emotions. Besides having a mature story it's got one of the best animation I have come across, it works perfectly with the storytelling, bring out the feelings of the characters. The sound and music are also great and the characters among the most complex ones I have seen in an animation.

As of now I have watched the first two seasons, first season in dubbed and the second in subbed and have loved them both, although I prefer the dubbed version. Really looking forward to see what comes next for Rai.

The anime is a great anime of slice of life genre. To watch its greatness be patient and watch both seasons and you will be delighted to watch it. <Must recommeded but on a slow pace.
