Hibike! Euphonium
Synopsis: Now that Kumiko Oumae has enrolled at Kitauji High School, she hopes to forget about her past. Despite her desire for a fresh start, she is dragged into the school's band club by her new friends - Sapphire Kawashima and Hazuki Katou - and is once again stuck on euphonium.
As the band currently stands, they won't be able to participate in their local festival, SunFest, let alone compete on a national level. The band's new advisor, Noboru Taki, offers them a choice: they can relax and have fun, or practice hard and try to get into nationals. Not wanting to repeat her middle school mistakes, Kumiko is iffy on whether to try out for nationals. Amidst the chaos, she learns that her old bandmate, Reina Kousaka (with whom she had a bitter relationship) has joined Kitauji's band club. Under the pressure of Noboru's strict training, Kumiko and her bandmates must learn to overcome their struggles and find success together.
