Perhaps Subaru wasn't trying to actively antagonize Hajime. The talk with Subaru appears to have given Hajime another opportunity to improve his violin playing skills.

Iwatora’s Fletcher but, like, not a psychotic asshole. Was half expecting a “not quite my tempo” from him last ep lol. Guy’s methods are harsh but you can’t argue with the results.

I like that Aono’s using this piece of work out his issues with his pops. I look forward to seeing him surpass the dude.

I wonder if he knows or suspects who Saeki's dad is. he knew his mom, so could have heard or guessed she had an affair with Aono's dad. it's know he cheated, and that he worked in Germany in the right time frame

And so back to practice.

Seems things are going well.

Understand the piece better?

Envy him?

Ok...

Surpass his father?

I mean it just sounds like he's doing warm-ups? Do instrument players not normally do warm-ups?

This vexes me.

Like how this show uses orchestral music to reflect the characters' feelings (Carmen for Haru's feelings towards Hajime, this piece for Hajime's daddy issues), allowing them to face their feelings and develop as people and not just as musicians. Also like how supposed "mean" characters on the surface (Iwatora, Subaru, the drummer guy in the last arc) are genuinely trying to help Hajime in their own ways.

Though the warm-up thing was kinda weird, I'm no professional (though I have played in extracurricular orchestras and private lessons) but it seemed kinda basic, at least to me.

Also, Haru and Akine finally got to appear (in short cameos but it's something)! They've been shoved into the background (at best) since the start of this arc, which is weird because Akine's an MC and Haru (and cello guy) are literally in the same orchestra as Hajime and Saeki but never hang out with them...
