Anonymous Noise

Introduction

Every day, a young girl wearing a mask stands by the beach and sings a nostalgic melody. After experiencing two sudden heart-wrenching partings when she was only a child, Nino Arisugawa has been singing her songs to the ocean, bound by a promise made with her two childhood friends—her first love, Momo Sakaki, and a boy who composed music, Kanade "Yuzu" Yuzuriha. Having never met each other, the boys both individually promised that if Nino was ever separated from them, her voice would be the beacon to reunite them once again. After six long years, destiny has finally placed Nino, Momo, and Yuzu in the same high school. However, the passage of time has changed many things in their lives—while Nino relentlessly attempts to fulfill her childhood promise with the boys, Yuzu's feelings for her from the past resurface, and Momo goes to great lengths to prevent a reunion with Nino. Through music, will they be able to mend their friendship and overcome all the feelings involved in this complicated love triangle? [Written by MAL Rewrite]

"Anonymous Noise" is a kaleidoscope of emotions, weaving a captivating tale of love, loss, and the unyielding passion for music. This anime is not just about melodies; it's a symphony of the heartstrings. The storyline immerses you into the turbulent lives of Nino, Momo, and Yuzu, three individuals bound together by fate and separated by circumstance. As they navigate the labyrinth of their emotions, the music becomes their sanctuary, their solace, and their battlefield. What sets "Anonymous Noise" apart is its raw portrayal of human vulnerability and resilience. Each character resonates with authenticity, struggling with their past, present, and the uncertain future. Nino's haunting voice echoes the pain of her loss, Momo's silence speaks volumes of his inner turmoil, and Yuzu's unwaverin…

After watching the show I came to MAL and read the reviews. It seems many people disliked Fukumenkei Noise because Alice is quite annoying by always sing "la la la" in the very first episode along with the boring story, but I don't think so. There are reasons for her behaviors and it makes sense. The more you watch the show, the more you understand and will empathy with her. She's stubborn and not the kind of person who tells people she loves A and then at the last episode it turns out that she falls in love with someone else. I love Alice's personality. Everyone in this show loyal to the one they love, and I like that. About the story, it good but nothing has solved and many questions left unanswered in the last episode. That's because the story still goes on, this is not the end. I ho…

First of all, I dont usually like Shoujo, Ive watched some and thats all. Its cute, sometimes you cry, sometimes you smile, but if Im not in the mood for it I get bored. That is not how it works for Fukumenkei Noise, I really liked it, it was good, its true that Fukumenkei Noise have its problems, the first is Yuzu. Yuzu is... how can I say it? Yuzu is annoying, he is the "I love her but I cant tell her" dude, so he just treat her bad, and thats freackin annoying, its stupid, its the kind of cliche you see in romance movies. But thats it, for a first season its pretty good. Characters -Nino is cute and she wants to tell Momo she loves him since she couldnt in the past -Yuzu is... I hate him -Momo is the cold guy that the fandom loves, he have his reasons to be like this, he is a good ch…

Alright, so I rarely watch an anime that I don’t rate well. The reason I gave this a four is because of multiple aspects going wrong. For story, that is what keeps the show going. That is the reason I was able to finish it. Reading the summary roped me in because I like cheesy cliche romances. If you like love triangles this might be for you. Now let me tell you about the art. I’m not a fan of the style in general. Very shojo-y but that makes sense for the genre. The thing I really didn’t like was the cgi within the performance scenes. It’s just the worst. As for sound, the music was alright but half the time she was screaming and apparently that’s the only way to portray emotion while singing in this anime. Her voice is really annoying at the beginning but I guess that’s to show how she…

People didn´t like this because it was too cliched and too overdramatic. Well, I liked it because it was a music-oriented anime after all. Artists need to be sentimental and eccentric to feel inspired for their music, they aren´t ordinary people in the first place. What I didn´t like that much is that they overused the flashbacks even in the middle of a concert! I get why though, they only had like 12 episodes to show and had to include every possible content until the end. There´s still the manga ongoing so it´s a nice intro to a decent shoujo that can be liked by many.

WARNING:THIS REVIEW HAS CONTENT HARMFUL TO KIDS(so i guess that means it will be fun) Anyways, i was too hungover cause i'm too old to be drinking like the world is about to end and since it has been a little while since i watced any kind of anime i decided to pump myself full of painkillers and watch some shit....As to why i chose this particular shit i cannot tell but here we are and these are my thoughts on Anonymous Noise: The soundtrack of my worst nightmares. To kick things off AN wastes no time pushing the pedal to the metal by introducing us to a song so brutal and technical, the likes of which can only be heard from bands such as Cannibal Corpse, Lamb of God, Slipknot etc. Wanna take a guess which one i'm talking about? It isn't that hard people come on, even kids know this shi…

this is my review I personally loved this anime because i was waiting for a long time to watch a good romance, crama and mainly a shoujo anime. Story: the story might seem familiar to many people but there are aspects to it which are different. the part where childhood friends meet again is an old concept but they vrought music into it and i really liked that. the story contains funny and sad moments, it has a good mixture which makes it really interesting and fun to watch. the episodes were prerfectly paced but the last tow episodes were rushed, it could have easily been a 22 eopisodes long anime. the ending was a good for season 1, but if they won't release a season 2,it might leave you a bit unhappy. 9/10 art: the characters designs could have been improved, especially the main fem…

>>SPOILERS<< After seeing the comments and reviews on the anime series alone, it surprised me that it got negative feed backs much more than positive ones so I decided to write my review for this show. I may bring up spoilers for the manga or the anime, but I'll try my best to not let my love for the manga version of this series go in the way of my review. Story = 8 The story is cliche, indeed. It doesn't stand out too much based on the sypnosis and cover art alone. At first, it seems like your typical romance, mainstream shoujo anime/manga full of predictable happenings, but when you start watching it and/or read it, it gets better between the character interactions and drama. Now, people may say that this story is overdramatic, or may contain LOTS of drama between episodes. I'd like to…

Story: 5/10 It's your average love triangle plot, with some music elements to mix things up. It's nothing new and it doesn't really surprise you at any giving point. The worst part of the whole story was how there is never an actual conclusion to anything. There's no closure to at least give you some sense of fulfillment, which is one of the most frustrating aspects of Fukumenkei Noise. Also, I really don't think it's fair to even call this a love triangle when Yuzu never even had a chance to begin with. Honestly though, the story had potential, but they failed to make it shine to its full potential. Art: 8/10 It's pretty good and consistent overall, except here and there, especially in some of Momo's scenes where things just seemed a bit less worked on. Also, unfortunately, there's som…

Ain't gonna lie, my first impression while watching this show (and probably yours too) was like '' WTF IS THIS'' Then I somehow decided to stick to it and push through the episodes, and THAT WAS THE BEST DECISION IVE EVER MADE IN MY LIFE. 12 episodes later I'm left with chills all over my body, eyes red from crying and a heart full of emotions! Story: Honestly nothing too innovative at first, a love triangle, a childhood love heartbreak and dramatic scenes on a rooftop that reflects the life of young Japanese teenagers. HOWEVER, if you dig a little bit more there is depth to the story, surprises along the way and everything comes to place by the end, this ain't your regular dose of shoujo BELIEVE ME !!! Characters: PROBABLY THE STRONGEST POINT of this show apart of the music! Nino is a…

Music as a genre in anime is usually a mixbag for many viewers since most of the times either the music is not to the viewer's taste or the series deserves to be thrown in a trash can and beaten a thousand times with a baseball bat. However, the anime gods have blessed us in the past with decent and even great shows, like Nana and Beck to name a few. Even getting a music series with a decent plot and not a rushed and shit conclusion is a miracle. Fukumenkei Noise is not at all from the best of its caliber, but *angelic voices awing in absolute harmony* it is decent to good. I had lost faith in this type of anime since the cow manure that Fuuka was. I thought that all anime concerning music will just keep on playing the op song constantly in every episode and have 1 or two original songs.…

kira kira hikaru osorano hoshiyo mabataki shite wa minna o miteru kira kira hikaru osorano hoshiyo Ok, so that was fucking awesome, for a 12-episode anime like that with a drama, romance and musical genre, so what gives about this anime? Very Good 8, Story: The plot where childhood friends were at their peak of their sweet friendship when suddenly the boy goes away without saying anything to the girl and girl finds replacement , but was just too loyal to the boy and then several years later in senior high school , she sees him again, but, boy is no longer interested or at least not showing it was maybe annoying, but then again it’s annoyingly very good since , one would see the girls struggle to get his boy back through music as the basis of this anime’s plotline. Too bad replacement has…

Momo. Momo Momo Momo Momo Momo Momo. Singing or, dare to say, some shouting. Love triangle. Nino, Arisu! That sums up all I got out of this anime. *Attention for spoilers* But here's what I didn't get out of Fukumenkei Noise: (1) Why does Nino like Momo so much after six years without having any kind of contact with him and (2) How come Yuzu and Momo are in love with Nino, if she is so... bland? In fact, the characters Nino and Momo, two of the main, are terribly flawed, not in a good way, but a way that makes it frustrating and cringey to watch. Yuzu, on the other hand, is a great character overall, and he seems to genuinely care about Nino's happiness, even encouraging her to "reach Momo". The same can't be said about Momo, the love interest of Nino, who acts in a despicably wa…

Spoiler free review I welcome feedback on my reviews Singing has the power to captivate people. Everyone knows this. Any good singer knows how to use the full extent of their vocal abilities to draw in their audience and leave them wanting more. It can bring up feelings of calmness, excitement, love or hatred, allowing us to forget our many daily woes and just enjoy the moment. May we be the ones listening or the ones on stage, all that truly matters during that performance is the singing. Anonymous Noise is the love triangle between Nino Arisugawa, Kanade Yuzuriha and Momo Sakaki, a group of students that all have a love for music. Once childhood friends and now unfortunately seperated for various reasons, they slowly find out they all go to the same school and try and rekindle their l…

At first glance, Fukumenkei Noise might be assumed to be just like any other typical shoujo series. There's the self-insert female protagonist, the love triangle filled with boys who have jerkish traits, the usual combination of factors of what makes a shoujo romance series. However, unlike the typical shoujo series, it provides very good clear reasons for why the characters are the way they are as well as a thematic that fits the feel of the show. Even if it is fairly typical, some key elements allow it to shine. The characters account for a lot of what makes the show so good, and one prime example of that is Nino. Nino is like most shoujo MCs. She falls completely in love with the jerk-like male MCs and thinks about them all of the time. (Although at least she is more aware rather than…

Ohhh boy...where to start with this one... Fukumenkei Noise is like loud static, it doesn't care what it does...it just needs to be loud and everything will work out until someone changes the channel. Look Fukumenkei Noise for LA was one of LA's more infuriating anime series to watch from Spring 2017 and with a few good reasonings. Hell in all cases Fuuka from last season did a much better job albeit with it's few controversial decisions it did...it's still better than Fukumenkei Noise. For the things that Fukumenkei Noise does right however is that at the very least has some of it's morals be in the right place, such as not giving up, being the underdog (be it both in the music industry or romantically) and all that kind of stuff, LA really does like those underdog type of stories and…

This review may contain few spoilers. STORY (5) What I understood: ~Nino and Momo are childhood friends, when they were younger, they used to sing ''Twinkle Little Star'' all the time and hold hands to go to school. But one day, Momo had to move and without Nino knowing, he disappeared, leaving her alone with her pain. That's where she met Yuzu, a young song writer that will eventually write songs just for Nino to sing.~ What I felt: ~It was WAY too overdramatic. You know, that feeling when you find a serie that could be good but then is so overdramatic that it turns cringy? Yeah...that's what it felt like. Every episode was a battle of feeling ''trying to reach this or that person''. Which was pretty annoying to a certain point. ART (6) ~The art was pretty decent but the CGI, 3D ani…

TL;DR – A melodramatic sledgehammer with characters that shed enough tears to fill a swimming pool & more angst than a lifetime of Linkin Park albums. But if a teenage soap opera about pop-rock & unrequited love sounds like your kind of thing, either to cry or laugh along to, then it fits the bill. Love is hell for a shojo heroine. Particularly so for Nino, whose feelings have remained unrequited since her childhood friend Momo suddenly skipped town in elementary school. Despite the years & common sense suggesting she should move on, Nino has continued to hold those feelings inside, determined that one day they will finally reach him. Meanwhile, her blinkered vision left her oblivious to the obvious feelings of another childhood friend, Kanade, who pined for her much as she did Momo. Boy…

Melodrama has been the talk of the anime community for quite a while now. Most of the time that I see it being mentioned, it's in a negative light. As an example "teenage melodrama" has become one of the most commonly used terms when discussing shows like Anohana, Angel Beats, Your Lie In April and many others that set their sights at making the viewer cry by the end of it. The characters are often overblown and stereotyped for the sake of achieving that goal, as you can see in the previously mentioned examples. That's pretty much the gist of it: create simple, recognizable characters that the viewer can quickly empathize with just so you can use that to play with their emotions. I've often been an advocate for melodrama. I've always thought that it created a specific kind of feeling that…

It doesn't matter if you don’t like alternative music. It doesn't even matter if you don’t like romance. Something really good can captivate the attention of people who aren’t even fans of the genre, and i’ll tell you, this is no groundbreaking show. I’ve seen it maybe 5 times in different variations, just mixed and matched here and there. -Story- 4/10 Fukumenkei is the exact epitome of it’s genre. It takes on a few cliches we’ve seen not once, but a trillion times: 1.) The childhood friend love interest 2.) A love triangle 3.) The dense/oblivious to everything main character Now I must say though, just because an anime has these things doesn't automatically make it bad, but it is something to note. It's all about how the show uses/portrays these things. I’d have to say the biggest fai…
