QUICK TAKES

I found the dramatic animation sequence when Mafuyu confesses he likes Uenoyama too hilarious. He really has a lot going on in his head and is in shock that both their feeling towards each other are mutual hahahaha. Absolutely loved this series and will be watching the movies too!!! The music is also amazing, highly recommend it, don't miss out on peak ;)

Sinceramente este es un anime que me gusta mucho por todas las emociones que me hace sentir, hay relaciones o personajes que me parecen bastante molestos/inmaduros pero me gusta ver cómo va evolucionando para bien todo y por dios QUE BUENAS CANCIONES

Amé esta historia y todos sus personajes, la música maravillosa 🥰 quisiera haber visto más de la historia o un cierre en la pareja secundaria. Lo recomiendo 👏🫶

Ayyyyy este episodio, siento que es lo que todos estabamos esperando, el amor en su maximo esplendor, la verdad es realmente emocionante como el desarrollo de los personajes llega a este punto, brindandonos una experiencia muy emotiva y llena de sensaciones encontradas.

First of all, I love the dramatic animation when Uenoyama hears Mafuyu say he likes him! The last episode feels warm and heartfelt. The band, their friendship, and Uenoyama and Mafuyu’s relationship keep moving forward. A nice wrap for Season 1 and I’m already hyped for Season 2!

A really satisfying wrap-up episode. The band feels fully realized by now and the emotional journey lands nicely. Calm, heartfelt ending that stays true to the show’s tone.

A sweet, satisfying finale that feels earned rather than flashy. It’s more about connection and moving forward than dramatic closure. Leaves you with a warm feeling.

Lorem

A heartfelt finale that looks toward the future. Relationships feel more honest, and the band seems stronger than ever. It ends on a hopeful, warm note.

This episode is the emotional peak of the season. The live performance scene is incredibly powerful, especially Mafuyu’s singing — it feels raw, vulnerable, and completely honest. The way music becomes a confession of pain, love, and healing makes this one unforgettable.

Given the anime beats all expectations coming from someone who read the mangas. The casting for Mafuyu Sato was absolutely perfect and the writing for the songs was another stroke of absolute genius. This entire thing was directed with so much care and love.

To sum up Given:
An emotional journey where the MC falls deeper into music to heal from his past love, and in doing so, slowly opens his heart to the ML and joins a band 😊

EPISODE CONTEXT — Arc Climax / Finale

Following the emotionally explosive band performance in episode 9 and the relationship shifts that unfolded in episode 10, this finale serves as the season's exhale — resolving character arcs for Ritsuka, Mafuyu, Haruki, and Akihiko while addressing the band's future direction. As episode 11 of 11, it's purely a wrap-up chapter, prioritizing closure and personal growth over new conflict. The story continues in the Given movie, which picks up the threads left here, particularly around Haruki and Akihiko.
