a nice little anime to watch at the night and eat a little you have a lot of Comedy and Action we can say this serie can missed you a little bit because you become attached but anyway... lets begin !

About The Story
thats a good story but we have a lot of things not really explained for the moment when i write this review at this moment i dont have see the others things like Specials or the old Serie of this anime so... so i dont really know if i have missed something but anyway... i have seen the people dont like the old series of this anime but lets get to the point now.. this is pretty good but the only thing is soo much things are not very clear.. i mean a bunch of things have happen without returning on it.. but thats good this is just the only thing who make you think a little... , so i highly recommand to go watch the OAV or the older serie i think they can contain some information you dont very know

About Animation and Sounds
i like the style of the animation (watch it in Blu-Ray) the animation of combat are pretty cool in it but they are simple but cool okay.. ? for the sounds like everytime.. they are correct so for the Opening and Ending i like them both you get a nice feel when you hear them but yeah i leave you the link and in the serie i remember to have seen 1 different opening i think this is from a OAV or something

"Note the Sounds of the link can be a little fked up because this is on YouTube and they get copyright strike.. and the Ending link dont have song because they cut it up so you will probably hear the song when you gonna watch the anime so anyway..."

Opening

Ending

About the Characters
i will be short for this one because we have a lot of characters so yeah we got some nice characters in the both side Evil and Good with some personality i like but we have some missing information on some characters , i think this is in the OAV or older serie we can know that idk but yeah a lot of nice characters thats pretty nice !

About the Enjoyment
if you dont enjoy thats just probably not your taste so dont judge too fast we have some Comedy and nice fighthing thats really nice to watch when you eat .. or not.. but fk it......  thats a nice serie this is just good nothing more than that this is a simple anime 

i can recommand that.. but thats really depend on your genre if you dont really know what to watch thats can be a good one this serie is just good like that , this serie is not too good and not too bad thats just correct ! so yeah ur not gonna jump on ur chair but thats good o:

This is my first review here in hummingbird and hopefully not the last.

Hana no Uta is arguably better than the previous adaptations, though no one can disagree that the previous OVA offered a more solid animation and artwork than what hana no uta provided to us.

Story and Characters (7/10)

I'm not entirely sure but I think, story wise, they remained faithful to the source. Though they skipped some side stories like the land gods' pilgrimage and the back story of the first doctor of the town; Victor Frankenstein. Those side stories are pretty nice, I am kinda disappointed not to see them since they add more substance to the characters of Yuuhi, Yae, Juri and Mariabelle.

Let's go back to the point... The story of Hana no Uta is neither the best nor the brightest of this seasons lineup. It's pretty entertaining but if you go in deeper in the story, it's a mess, all sorts of past related conflicts and Enjin the antagonist has neither a clear objective nor goal, it's as if his purpose is just to wreck havoc and bully the other characters --specially Akina-- for his own entertainment and the ending made it even worst and harder to digest. On the other hand the main characters and other side characters of the story are fun to watch, may it be a casual conversation, an intense fight scene or an emotional moment; they're all fun and entertaining except for the female student trio, they're just too annoying. The whole casts consist mainly of classic stereotypes and a bunch of cliche that mostly seen in other anime. Some of them are boring and sometimes pretty useless too. It has an insane amount of casts so I think the quartet of the show didn't float that much.

Art and Animation (6/10)

The art was terrible and in my opinion it's too moe, if you compared it to the manga's artwork (which can be seen every half-time transitions -I don't know what it's called) it's pretty terrible. I really like Yasuda's art style and seeing it transformed into moe blob, was painful to watch. The animation was pretty mediocre or below compared to other airing shows. And I am quite sure I'm not the only one who thinks that the camera work's a bit too conspicuous, they kept panning down the camera from the females' waist to their skirts or legs, thus resulting to the absurd amount of panty shots. I'm not saying it's bad, it's overkill.

Sound and Voice Actors (8/10)

I'll start with the soundtrack, I really like the soundtrack of YQ, specially the OP. It's very catchy and cheerful plus it fits in the series very well while the ED is also good, it didn't left any impression on me. Voice actors did a great job, though I don't have the proper knowledge to professionally rate their performances, I really think they did good.

(7/10)

To sum it all up, YQ has some great potential, It's one of the most enjoyable supernatural series this season. Though the story isn't very well written, has some holes to fill in, and those last episodes posted all sorts of possible questions that aren't even answered by the end. It's still a fun ride, I am quite sure that another season will do this series justice.

In my opinion Yozakura Quartet: Hana no Uta is the best of the whole franchise just because I enjoyed it the most and I and I recommend it to anyone that want battles with a nice and refreshing story behind them.

While I said the story is refreshing it is not original but it did it not bother me at all when I was watching it.

It goes like this, In a town where both youkai(demons) and humans live together there are a lot of problems and its the job of the teenager major Hime Yarizakura and her friends to make sure the towns people are happy. the town is nice and peaceful but not everyone likes the peace this town has and this is where the battles of the anime take place.

The animation is pretty good and I have no complains about it. It did a great job when there was nothing going on but its the battle scenes where it shines just because of how much attention they gave to those scenes.

There's not many recognizable songs in the anime but it does its job to portrait the atmosphere the anime wants you to feel. The best song in the anime is the opening witch I didn't like at first but after a few episodes I found myself sing it.

The characters are very nice and they have different personalities and different and interesting powers. But there's not much character development witch didn't bother me that much because the characters where so lovely.

In the end I enjoyed this anime a lot and I recommend it to everyone who wants a shounen with interesting and refreshing story and interesting characters.

My biggest complaint is that its only 13 episodes, while the anime did a very good job at wrapping things up, I still wanted more!
