As an anime that promised more than what it could give, Fuuka was, to say the least, disappointing.
The message that was supposed to be about finding your path and what taking upon the opportunity to follow it ensues was diluted into a melodrama that lacked substance and coherence, where each episode tries to force some developement on both the plot and the characters when there wasn't any to begin with.
The only valuable piece of advice from its message that you can take is some insight on how your path can be closer to you than you might think. Other than that, it's got amazing music, no doubts a 10/10 performance and lyrics and the best thing its got going for it., and for the smelly weebs (like me) , uncensored fanservice.
TL;DR : Just read the manga and listen to the anime's music as…

Fuuka: A simple yet highly enjoyable musical romance
I originally watched Fuuka primarily for its visuals. The first things that caught my eye were the protagonist's design and the anime's art quality. The characters feature beautiful designs, the backgrounds are vibrant, and the art direction creates a very pleasant atmosphere. That strong first impression is what made me give the show a chance, and ultimately, I didn't regret it.
Overall, Fuuka is a romance and music anime that entertains from start to finish. It is far from perfect and relies on several genre clichés, yet it possesses enough personality to keep the viewer engaged. It’s the kind of anime that might not break new ground, but it delivers a lighthearted, fun experience for anyone who enjoys stories about youth, dreams, an…

I am a huge fan of mangas/animes centred around music. Music is my one big passion in life and I love seeing how others view it trough arts.
The thing is, this anime is the equivalent of throwing the drawing of your child in the bin right in from of them. How is it possible that in 2017 (14 years after Beck and at the same time as Bocchi the rock) you fuck up so bad something around music?
the characters are mid, the story is basically just ''the power of friendship TM'' , the relationships between characters are rushed, the romance is as painful as my Highschool love life and even worse the music (literally the key point of all that) is MID AS HELL.
the manga was actually quite nice but the anime studio should pay back everyone who had the faith in watching it in its entirety. my day…

After watching this anime I was motivated to learn to play bass and form a band. At first I was hesitant to watch this, but after listening to the soundtrack I finally finished watching it, I think the story is unique, unlike most music anime in general. Apart from that, Yuu has motivated me to learn to play bass. and as for the character itself, I think it's suitable. I still don't understand why an anime this good only has a score of 6 even though everything is good and there are no oddities in each episode. Is it because it only has 12 episodes? but I don't care about the score of 6, what is certain is that this anime is highly recommended plus the songs are nice to listen to

I hate this animes so much . Essentially its about childhood friend that leaves to go prove her worth and love to the person she loves . But all that effort is literally is for nothing because random nobody girl steal his heart without much effort. I really hate anime that do this kinda cliche . Effort should always be rewarded. It was obviously based on the title this about those story that childhood friend Nevers wins. It such cliche writing trope in Japanese stories. It's annoying because theirs hardly ever childhood love stories where they win against.
It wouldve been more surprising to have protagonist realize all the effort she put into showing her love to him.
Keeps following the narrative the childhood friends always loses.

I decided to watch this animation, because, once, I was on Spotify and a song from this anime came up and, honestly, I really loved it!!!
So let’s start this review by talking about the soundtrack. OMG, THE SONGS ARE INSANE, I really think this is my favorite element, the voices, the instruments sounds, the lyrics, every sound detail gave me a levitation experience. If you, don’t want to watch, ok, but please, listen to the soundtrack.
About the story, it’s common, nothing new, sometimes, I got bored and skipped some parts, but, ok. It's not perfect, but I managed to enjoy it.
The characters, ok. They didn’t captivate me.

Anime version:
I don't recommend this anime, it can cause disappointment to the viewers
the MC should ended up with Koyuki rather than Fuuka
Anyway, I have a better ending in mind so I don't feel sad about this.
here's my ending haha (don't worry this ending is only coming into my mind, I don't intend to change everything): to read this you might wanna ignore the (), they are just my commentary and not part of the story
In the scene where Fuuka drops her couple strap and almost gets hit by the truck, that scene there where she doesn't pick up the strap should be a sign that she should forget about her feelings for Yuu and accept the fact that Yuu is already in a relationship with Koyuki and continue performing on the band. In the concert scene where Koyuki secretly attends the concert…

Ok, Fuuka is not the best work of art that existis, but Stiller it was the first manga that I got real lya attached, back in 2017. I was an anime only guy before that. Anyway, I love the manga of the series, so I decided to watch the anime after I've read some stuff of the manga, and oh God, what a bad decision. The anime is fun and all until it gets to the end of it. I will not say what happend, but it dramatically changed where the story headed, to a point that is impossible to even go back to what the original go for. But what droves me crazy, is that the end trully made Fuuka a totally different character and it trully infuriates me, especially because I love her as a character. One thing that I also dislike, is that exist a huge song by The Hedgehogs, that is The Town Were The Stars F…

It starts off with the hardest cliché ever. The "Meet cute" then a love triangle. But then it starts to kind of not become cliché. Then fan service but that's a given with anime most time but it was during the boring parts to keep the watcher enticed. Then when it starts to escalate. One girl clearly had more personality than the other as well which kind of was upsetting and forced for us to like more.
So you'll honestly need to watch the whole thing to be honest to fully enjoy it. I didn't really get bored of it just waited to see where it goes. Should've stuck with what happened in the manga i felt like that would've really pushed the show higher up and way interesting. Also the ending with the other girl wasn't TOTATTLY elaborated but i think i understood. Just wish more was brought to…

Worst anime I have ever seen. Biggest pile of trash ever created. After watching this anime I feel like jumping off a cliff. God help us all. Words cannot explain the amount of disappointment I feel after this anime. I feel bad for the actors who had to act for this anime. Every character should have been aborted and every time I see fuuka on screen I am reminded of the complete failures that infest this world. It you enjoy this anime, I hope you have a wonderful life ahead of you, even though your taste in anime belongs in a the dumpster. Fix your life and find Jesus.

Look, it's an anime about people who are good at playing music.
Yeah, look, don't listen, because the music they are playing is mediocre at best and actually awful.
But they never stop blowing their own horn.
And the same goes with romance.
It's an anime about a boy who loves a girl and they have sorta-relationships.
Or not. Who cares. The boy sure doesn't, and the girl is as concerned and is feeling as much as a corpse.
This anime is as shallow as a dry poddle.
It's a shame they've wasted such quality art on it. Don't waste your time, just check some screencaps and you'll know everything about it.
There's not much story and no development at all.

Have you ever seen White Album 2? Its exactly that but the end is so much better. WA2 left me empty and i hated everything about the ending, and how the relationships worked. Fuuka did a better job with the whole "I love him so much but dont have the courage to tell him face to face" thing. There were tons of misunderstandings the whole time, and they get resolved quick (12 episodes is a bit tight) but its not like it was *horribly done* yaknow? It was a relatively average plot regardless, dont get me wrong, but it was also a good kind of average too. Cliche but not so Cliche that it felt boring. Evewry episode is just FILLED with plot points. Like easily 3 at minimum, and thats not even including any drama or resolutions.
Would i watch this again? Yaknow, it being so short, yea i probab…

I see there is mixed opinions, so I wanted to write my first review so I can tell you all the positives, and the negatives about Fuuka. If you are looking for great characters in this anime, I'd suggest to look for another anime. The characters are pretty generic, dense MC, hot guy character, hot headed character, you know the drill. Akitsuka Fuuka, you might like her, or you could her annoying. Me, however, she isn't all that bad. I think she is one of the only characters that keeps me interested in the show. She is required in the show so the show can be decent, and bring out the best out of the characters. My least favorite is Sara. It's because she gets a little bit of scenes, she had potiental at first when she met Yuu, but later on, turned into a very bland character. If you are look…

tl;dr: An anime centered around stupid young people and music that has some issues but is mostly solid until an ending that’s awful.
Fuuka is an anime based on the manga by Seo Kouji, a mangaka most famously known for Suzuka and Kimi no Iru Machi. Fuuka could actually be thought of as a sequel to Suzuka, in that the titular character Fuuka is the daughter of the titular character Suzuka, but beyond giving more significance to a certain shrine that’s brought up a couple times the connection between the two is only what essentially amount to cameos, of which there are also a few from other Seo works. Thus plot wise that it’s taking place in the same universe as Suzuka and Kimi no Iru Machi isn’t that important. That it’s very close in themes to those is far more important. Just as with his…

Somehow watching this anime reminds me of School Days, in reverse.. While School Days is kinda dreadful until the ending saves it, this one started just okay only to go straight downhill..
Put logic asides(mc suddenly be able to play bass on short notice while before this he cant even play an instruments is already a joke) , its how story plays out that pissed me off the most.. A slight difference between manga and anime is acceptable, but a totally different ending makes this anime loses its essence..
As for the character, Fuuka.. What a sloppy character development.. Sure she just about to know love but come on, did you really need to kill an ENTIRE band that YOU FORCEFULLY CREATE just because of your male mc is dating your favorite idol.. How about at least try to win his affections…

This was one of the first anime i've binged in a while, I was really enjoying it till halfway through they started ruining it, it was still enjoyable but wasn't a fan of the 2nd half. The story was fine, I liked the characters for the most part, the art was fine, and enjoyment was very good. Most of the reason I didn't enjoy any of it was because the mc was so stupid, he made the dumbest decisions, and then they didn't stay with the manga which i wanted. Everything else was good though, I think it is a very good anime besides them ruining the story.

Well here's a series that I completely checked out randomly. I believe the prequel to this has aired, but I didn't watch it prior to this because I didn't know about it.
Story: This series, Fuuka, introduces us to Yuu, who is most seemingly an ordinary high school student. Due to his parent's job transfer, he had to recently change schools. He spends much of his time on Twitter and is pretty attached to his cell phone. On the way to his new school, a girl named Fuuka runs into him and accuses him of taking an upskirt photo of her. When Yuu finally gets to school, it turns out that she's in his class. Though they eventually patch things up, Fuuka mentions to Yuu that she would like to be a professional singer someday - she uses her CD Walkman frequently and doesn't even own a cell phone.…

The story was decent art, sound, characters were fine too, the only thing i disliked was that i wanted haruna to end up with hinashi but that was obvious cause the animes name is fuuka, tho i liked the fact that in the anime she wasnt dead but i knowing the fact still rooted for hinashi, nvmd that, haruna wasnt a very gud male lead according to me. The anime was fine but i didnt like who ended up with so id give it a 7 cause its just weird to love someone who u just met n leaving the person who gave her whole life n career to you. Disappointed but lifes too short to hate. I give it a 6

Written from the perspective of someone who hasn't read the Manga. I get the impression a lot of the hate on this anime is something to do with the aforementioned manga and changes that were made in the anime.
With that said let me get a couple of things off my chest. Introversion isn't something that you 'fix'. As a proud introvert the idea that this kid needed to by an energetic extrovert was kinda insulting. The second is learning to play an instrument involves more than just luck. It takes years and years of work. This element of Fuuka is just dumb and frustrating.
Fuuka is a romantic comedy anime with a blindingly obvious story, no surprises and a dull protagonist. Childhood friend? Tick. Energetic girl comes into his life through an accident? Tick. Sisters who (while at least they…

Fuuka... I've read the manga first, because I knew how society viewed this anime, and once I finished reading the manga (which I reviewed as well), I immediately jumped to watch the adaptation, expecting disappointment, and to be honest, I expected a lot worse.
Story
The first I'd say half of the anime pretty much follows the manga, which was fairly pleasant. I was starting to enjoy it, looking forward how they might adapt some future scenes. However, the studio probably knew beforehand this wouldn't get any more seasons, so they had to make a full story in just 12 episodes, so I can see why they had to change a lot of things to make the anime feel complete. But I'd say, this approach wasn't as good as they might have thought. I'm really trying here to be unbiased here, because I really…
