Hibike! Euphonium 2
With another tournament fast approaching, Kumiko's band is doubling down on practice and discipline, leaving little time for sleep or other recreational activities. The redoubled practice schedule brings Kumiko and Reina closer together, but elsewhere in the band, it seems like drama threatens to tear the group's unity apart. The ghost of the prior year's mass band exodus still haunts many of Kumiko's classmates, and with former band member Nozomi Kasaki now asking to return, it seems like the grudges of the past will soon be impossible to ignore.

"Sound! Euphonium" or "how to create the most relatable character in fiction" My love letter to Kyoto Animation
I laughed, I cried, I loved every minute of it, this is what KyoAni does best, 100/100
Deep indirect feelings through with their rhythmic, harmonious sounding melody. Fantastically more than just music.
An improvement over the already great first season.
“Hibike! Euphonium. I’ll never forget how warm it sounds.”
I love a lot of things. Sound! Euphonium 2 is one of those things. Here's why.
"And then, the next piece begins." -Kumiko Oumae
While weaker in structure and pace, S2 crafts several extremely evocative character arcs which impacted me greatly
Sound! S2 takes the stage set-up by S1 and tells a compelling story about hardships of performing and growing up
