YOUR LIE IN APRIL SYNOPSIS

Piano genius Kousei Arima dominated the competition and all child musicians knew
about him. But after his mother, who was also his instructor, passed away, he had a
mental breakdown while performing at a recital that resulted in him no longer being able
to hear the sound of his piano even though his hearing was perfectly fine. Even 2 years
later, Kousei hasn’t touched the piano and views the world in monotone, and without any
flair or color. He was content at living out his life with his good friends Tsubaki and
Watari until, one day, a girl changed everything. Kaori Miyazono is a pretty, free spirited
violinist whose playing style reflects her personality. Kaori helps Kousei return to the
music world and show that is should be free and mold breaking unlike the structure and
forceful style Kousei was used to.
