Paripi Koumei is another example why P. A works is an underrated studio. A musical anime, with a twist of a historical figure in the current Tokyo generation.
Paripi Koumei's story is about the music and how its passionate artists tackle the music scene and produce the songs they want other people to hear, ranging from the big concert moments, to the more quiet harmonizing sections with just someone and a guitar. It's really pleasant, actually. And it's the kind of thing in storytelling that works so well when the heart and soul of the series is given the correct time of day.
An extremely smart tactitian of his era, Kongming puts all his efforts to bring Eiko, a cheerful never giving up attitude girl, into the music industry limelight to let her achieve what she wishes to. I have to say the music was no doubt amazing, and the animation by P. A Works was outstanding.
What Odd Taxi did last year, Paripi Koumei repeated this year as well. With niche audience who has watched this anime, this surely is an underrated gem which needs to be explored by as many anime fans as possible.
My Rating : 8/10.
