Synopsis:

The story unfolds within the everyday world of Shirahamazaka High School, centered around its spirited Chorus Club. This collection documents their journey as they prepare for a significant performance, navigating the challenges of artistic collaboration and personal growth. The narrative focuses on the individual members – their hopes, anxieties, and the bonds forged through shared passion for music. It's a character-driven piece that explores themes of dedication, teamwork, and finding one’s voice, both literally and figuratively. Expect a gentle pace and nuanced portrayal of teenage life, emphasizing the quiet beauty found within ordinary moments rather than grand spectacle.

Reviews:

  • User PoLoBreak (Score: 7/10):
    Short little special inserted after the performance in ep13 of tari tari and runs in parallel time until the ending. Probably worth watching if you like Tari tari. Random personal rambling: I think i watched the tv series in 2013 and its quite an weird experience going back to this after 3 years. Makes me wonder why they bother making such a short after the anime's been done for quite a while. The short gets quite sentimental and reiterates the bittersweetness of graduation and parting ways, and it makes me wonder if I would've gotten sad had i watched it back then or perhaps that effectworks better after the fact. Because, I was in university back then, and now I don't keep in touch with the friends i had back then i anymore, so in a way the timing in which I watched this short with 2 different perspectives time fits more appropriately.
