I discovered Your Lie in April after I read AnoHana and I told myself that I would never read this since it was a sad drama. Fast forward 8-9 months and I've started to read a lot of romance and Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso popped up. I thought it was interesting and then I realized that Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso is the japanese title for Your Lie in April. I already got to chapter 10 so I said "Whatever, I'll keep reading". As the story progresses, you don't notice it immediately, but you can tell. You can tell something is going to happen and it's going to hurt. I personally enjoyed this but I won't be reading it again as I don't like drama manga.

Story: 9/10
----------------
The story was amazing and I loved it. This doesn't mean it's perfect. Certain parts do progress slowly and can get boring but that's only in the beginning. The other thing I dislike is the tragedy in the story as it hits you like a bus.

Art: 8/10
-------------
I don't really know how to judge the art since I only recently started reading manga but it's pretty good though the lips of the characters can be a bit weird at times.

Characters: 10/10
----------------------
The development of characters is outstanding and I really felt like I knew the characters personally.

Enjoyment: 10/10
----------------------
I honestly enjoyed Your Lie In April because of the characters and the story. The ending did somewhat anger me but I can live with it.

Overall: 9/10
----------------
Your Lie In April is an amazing story with great characters and art to back up the story. However, the ending can seem sudden (it did to me) and the art does look weird in certain places. The drama in the manga isn't my type as it's a sad drama and I get immersed in them so it hurts even more. Even if you hate sad stories, I urge you to read this because the story will captivate you.
