Piano prodigy Kousei Arima dominated the competition and has become famous among child musicians. After his mother, who was also his instructor, died, he had a mental breakdown while performing at a piano recital at the age of eleven. As a result, he is no longer able to hear the sound of his piano even though his hearing is perfectly fine. Two years later, Kousei hasn't touched the piano and views the world in monotone, without any flair or color. He has resigned himself to living out his life with his good friends, Tsubaki and Watari, until, one day, a girl changes everything. Kaori Miyazono, a pretty, free-spirited violinist whose playing style reflects her personality, helps Kousei return to the music world and shows that it should be free and mold breaking unlike the structured and rigid style Kousei was used to.

If you're into a drama (like Clannad), this one suits for you. ;)
I'd forgot that the characters are still in middle school 'cause as if they are facing adult problems at their young age. I mean the struggles are too heavy for them, conveying their deepest emotions and realizations are too real as if they're living their lives for almost twenty years (that's how I saw it XD) After watching the ending, I was like 'I have to post this in Wattpad right now!' I also have this chant: Please tell me how to move on! XD
I can't help but to post my feelings in twitter! I can't include it in here 'cause it might spoil the story XD
Overall, watching this anime is worth of your time and tears.
Quotes:
"A lump of steel, like a shooting star. Just seeing the same sky as you makes familiar scenery look different. I swing between hope and despair at your slightest gesture, and my heart starts to play a melody. What kind of feeling is this again? What do they call this kind of feeling? I think it's probably... Called Love. I'm sure this is what they call love." -Kousei Arima
"Such a cruel boy. Telling me to dream one more time. I thought I was satisfied because my dream had come true... And I'd told myself it was enough... Yet here you are, watering this withered heart again." -Kaori Miyazono
"Music speaks louder than words." -Kousei Arima
