Seeing how Seto, Kousei and Nagi represent 3 generations How do you pick yourself up and keep moving But where dad tho? Puppers literally steals the podcast (She doesn't shut up, her show now) The threads of everything before pulls into the performance The calm before the storm This arc helps recall the story so future plot will hit harder The performance is Vibrant, and well choreographed (and like 15 minutes of discussion) Kousei: - Showing character growth through Nagi - Reflected in how his teaching style started out harsh, untill Nagi and him share a moment - Kousei showing his mischievous side, and being the one to change the peice and pace - May have a lot of sorrow Kaori: - The eyes were almost always grey - Most don't realize how serious Kaori's health issues are - Kousei knows though - Kaori playing at being a real girl - She is clearly running through a bucket list - She knows how what is happening to her is effecting Kousei - Her spark and inspiration was lost - Goes full circle with Kousei inspiring Kaori to start playing again - Kousei brings the colour back to her world Tsubaki: - Strange that she doesn't pick up on why Kousei is having a hard time going to see Kaori - Realizing that she can't be there for Kousei and questioning herself - Odd that she doesn't seem to know Kousei - She can be cruel and selfish (through her confusion) - Kousei isn't there for her either (but that makes sense narratively) Watari: - Always the Sage - Took over the actual support role from Tsubaki, and encourages Kousei Seto: - Her daughter is adorable Drew Decrees it - Forcing Kousei to grow by making him have to go after Nagi - Shows how she has grown since she couldn't be there for Kousei - Trying to help Kousei get through his sorrow, while dealing with her own fears and guilt Nagi Aiza: - Oni-san = Hero - Very similar to Kousei, and her arc reflects this - Helps show Seto's growth as well, with Seto actually being able to step in during her panic - Her practicing for the show was very similar to Kousei when he was practicing for the show with Kaori - Good reflection when Nagi realizes how nervous Kousei is as well - Finally starts to understand her brother - Needs to be shown how skilled she actually is Takashi Aiza - May need to find who he is as a musician with no Kousei to follow - Gets the spark back from seeing Nagi Predictions: Will it be in Drew's top 10 Anime of all time? The day pass shenanigans is a big sign of something bad about to happen (will make Drew feel bad) ... Oh no! My mean old dad makes me hang out with hot chicks and pilot a giant robot
