If you’re subscribed to Crunchyroll and begin to explore more anime themes and genres, you might want to watch something about music. After all, there are endless possibilities for an anime whose plot revolves around it.
Here are some recommendations of anime series about music — and all of these have completely different takes on it.
When Bocchi the Rock! aired, the anime fandom fell in love with it almost instantly. While anime about a group of girls getting into a hobby is usually a niche thing, this one has become an exception.
There are multiple reasons for it. Aside from an obviously amazing production — both the animation and the music in the series are great — Bocchi was also praised for its realistic portrayal of social anxiety. Multiple references to the actual Japanese music scene also made fans very happy.
Given
Given combines a realistic BL romance with a story about people with passion for music. The result is a beautifully crafted anime praised even by those who aren’t into either of these genres — yes, it’s just that good.
The characters actually feel like real people, and their relationships are complex and dramatic — you will find yourself invested in no time.
Sound! Euphonium
Kyoto Animation is famous for their anime having amazing visuals. Sound! Euphonium (Hibike! Euphonium) isn’t an exception — and it’s also a realistic drama about a school’s band club. The anime is already considered a classic, and the third season is actually going to air in April — don’t miss out on it.
Love Live! School Idol Project
If you want an introduction to the idol subgenre, the most popular idol anime is definitely Love Live. In fact, it is so popular that it has 4 whole generations (which are technically standalone, but we still recommend starting from the first one).
Girls singing and dancing on scene might not sound exciting, but the anime has its fair share of fans. Try it, it might actually be your thing.
Symphogear
Senki Zesshou Symphogear is certainly a unique anime. Girls in mechanical suits that are powered by songs, fighting eldritch horrors and mythical enemies from distant past? Sounds crazy, but it actually works — and the anime gets better with every season.
It gets crazier as well, with one of the seasons opening with the main crew cutting a top off a mountain — believe it or not, that’s one of the more normal scenes in the anime.
All these are different in their own ways.
