「はるさきエピローグ」 (Harusaki Epirogu)
“Early-Spring Epilogue”
I’ve always been a firm believer that a good ending can save a series, and a bad ending can ruin an otherwise good one. Thankfully, this was a great finale – the sendoff that the fans and characters deserved.

「さいごのコンクール」 (Sai go no Konkuru)
“The Last Competition”
Why? Why? WHY?
 |
 |

「はつこいトランペット」 (Hatsu Koi Toranpetto)
“First Love Trumpet”
This was a beautiful episode, but no matter how hard they try, any justification for Reina’s feelings for Taki-sensei just leaves a bad aftertaste.

「ほうかごオブリガート」 (Hokago Oburigato)
“After-school Obbligato”
And that’s how you finish off two thematically linked character arcs. Everyone else, take notes.

「ひびけ！ユーフォニアム」 (Hibike! Yūfoniamu)
“Sound! Euphonium”
Whenever the title of the episode is the name of the series, you know you’re in for something special.

「かぜひきラプソデイー」 (Kazehiki Rapusodi)
“Rhapsody in Flu”
It may not have been last season’s equivalent episode, but we did get fluffy Kumiko instead.

「えきびるコンサート」 (E Ki Biru Konsato)
“Station Concert”
Aka: The Disappearance of Tanaka Asuka.

「あめふりコンダクター」 (Ame Furi Kondakuta)
“Rainy Conductor”
The world may be grim right now, but Hibike! Euphonium is here to cheer us up.

「きせきのハーモニー」 (Kise ki no Hamoni)
“Miraculous Harmony”
That was magical.

「めざめるオーボエ」 (Mezameru Oboe)
“Awakening Oboe”
It’s a given with Kyoani, but there really isn’t anything that keeps up with the character art and top-class production values that Hibike! Euphonium offers.
