  1. Ah, Your Lie in April. I have so many memories of this series, like the time my friends and I bingewatched the first half and tried to pinpoint what Kaori’s illness was. I also vividly remember the anticipatory grief I had over her imminent death as the anime went on because I decided to follow with the manga then.
