If you want a BL (Boys Love) anime which will warm your heart, make you cry and WILL make you crave more, look no further! This is the type of High school romance anime anyone would love.

You genuinely get a feel of what these characters are going through. Their backgrounds get explained but by bit, which makes you realise everyone has their secrets, their sad past that they rather not want to talk about or aren't sure how to express. You learn that communication is key, not only in love, but in healing the heartbroken...

A true masterpiece. I love BL, but most I've seen are just not really my cup of tea... BUT THIS IS PERFECTION!

I don't usually write reviews but given has left me with an undeniable wave of emotions that i still haven't gotten over and i found myself here urging anyone to give this anime a try and hopefully enjoy the taste of art created by given. personally characters' development is the strongest point in this anime. the way feelings and thoughts' growth is being displayed is down earth realistic. i'm not the type to indulge myself in the musical genre although i'm a lover of music however this anime left me so connected to it artistically and emotionally. fuyuu no hanashi is among my favourite songs now and i can't spend a day without listening to it! absolutely a worthy anime to be repeated whenever you feel like you're losing the pleasure you get from your passion or when you feel disconnected and lost!

The drawings made me fall in love. my heart is filled with different emotions every second of the anime. I do not know what to say. This anime just made me very happy. I really want everyone to watch. Thank you to those who made this anime.

When given the basic premise of this show it at first just sounded really basic to me. The older character that had gotten tired of music and the new character that really wants to learn and has some talent. But after starting this show before the first episode was over I was already in love with the characters. The relatability of them, the way that they have legitimately funny scenes without having to go to over the top reactions. And this is I think the first Anime that i've ever seen that has openly gay characters that aren't used as a punchline or very strongly hinted at but not a 100% confirmed (looking at you Yuri on Ice) The music in the show, the relatability and the almost immediate depth of the characters has 100% drawn me into this show and will continue watching and hoping that more people give this show a chance

This anime is filled with love and tragedies. so young and real and I'm left feeling so empty . currently reading the manga to fill the void ALSO THE SOUNDTRACK IS 10/10 !!!!!!!!!!
