Category: Kono Oto Tomare

「一歩前へ」 (Ichi ho mae e)
“A Step Forward”

Kono Oto Tomare is definitely one of those series where the whole is greater than the sum of the parts.

「久遠」 (Kuon/i>)
“Kuon”

Kono Oto Tomare is a sort of paean to anti-cynicism, a monument of emotional transparency in a medium where those things are increasingly out of fashion.

「ライバル」 (Raibaru)
“Rivals”

Don’t say I didn’t warn you.

「探してた音」 (Sagashi teta oto)
“The Sound I Was Searching For”

If you don’t like backstories, Kono Oto Tomare may not be your jam.

「近くて遠い距離」 (Chikakute tooi kyori)
“Obcure Distances”

The virtues here are pretty simple – sincerity, authenticity, a sense of respect for every character in the cast as an individual.

「突き刺さる言の音」 (Tsukisasaru gen no oto)
“A Piercing Sound”

I think in the real world there are more people like Takezou than there are like Chika.

「みちしるべ」 (Michi shiru be)
“Guide for an Unknown Path ~Guidepost~”

This isn’t the sort of series that’s going to have a lot of breather episodes.

「知られざる音の葉」 (Shira rezaru oto no ha)
“Unknown Sounds”

It’s pretty rare that you see an anime episode so neatly split down the middle.

「見えない境界線」 (Mienai kyoukai-sen)
“An Invisible Boundary”

This being Kono Oto Tomare, the phrase “never a dull moment” is one that’s going to get a lot of use.
