"Dear Kousei Arima. It feels weird writing to you a letter, when you were just here with me. You're an awful person. Laggard, slowpoke, dummy. The first time I ever saw you was when I was five. It was during the recital for the piano school I was going to back then. The boy who seemed so awkward and drove the audience to laughter when he knocked the stool with his hip. He sat at a piano that was too big for him, the moment he played that first note... I idolized him. Playing notes as colorful as a 24-color palette, the melody began to dance. 'I did it' you said. I was totally surprised when the kid next to me burst out crying. And yet, you quit playing the piano. After influencing my life the way you did. How awful is that? 'Daddy! Mommy!" I said. 'Hey, welcome home, Kaori. Are you hungry?' they replied. 'Buy me a violin! I'm gonna quit piano and play the violin!' I said. 'What's this all of a sudden?' They said. I replied: 'I want Kousei to play the piano for me.' Awful! Slowpoke! Dummy! When I found out that we were going to the same junior high, I was elated. How could I find a way to talk to you? Maybe I'll go buy sandwiches everyday? But in the end, all I could do was watch you. After all, you guys were too tightly knit. There was no space for me to slip into. I had a surgery as a child, and was treated regularly as an outpatient. After I collapsed in seventh grade, I was in and out of the hospital repeatedly. I started spending more time in than out. I was hardly ever in school by then. I knew that I wasn't very well. One night... when I saw my mother and father crying in the hospital waiting room, I realized that I didn't have much time. That was the moment. So I... ran for it! I started doing whatever I wanted, so I wouldn't bring regrets with me to heaven. I wore contact lenses, which freaked me out. I ate a whole cake, which I'd never done before because I was worried about my weight. Even the music scores that bossed me around so haughtily... I played them in my way. And then... I told a single lie: 'Kaori Miyazono likes Ryota Watari.' That's the lie I told. That lie... would bring before me... Kousei Arima. It brought you to me. Please tell Watari I'm sorry. Well, but still I guess it won't take long for Watari to forget all about me. As a friend, he's a fun guy, but I'd rather have someone more sincere. Also, tell Tsubaki that I'm sorry. I'm just someone who's passing through, who'll be gone. I didn't want to leave behind an awkward mess, so I couldn't ask Tsubaki. Or rather, even if I asked her straight up, 'Please introduce me to Kousei', I don't think she would've been okay with that. After all, Tsubaki was so crazy about you. We'd all known that for a long time. The only ones who didn't know, were you, and Tsubaki. The 'you' that my sneaky lie brought to me wasn't who I'd imagined. You were more negative and passive than I thought, not to mention stubborn, relentless and a camera voyeur. Your voice was lower than I thought, and you were more manly that I thought. And you were just as gentle as I thought. The river was so cold and felt so good when we jumped off Courage Bridge, wasn't it? The round moon peeking into the music room looked like a delicious steamed bun. When we raced that train, I really thought that we could win. It was fun singing 'Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star' together under the shining stars, wasn't it? There's just something about school at night, right? Don't you think the snow looks like cherry blossom petals? To be so consumed by everything off-stage when I'm a musician... that just doesn't make sense, does it? Isn't it funny how the most unforgettable scenes can be so trivial? 'None of it was trivial' What about you? Was I able to live in someone's heart? 'Yes you were' Was I able to live inside of your heart? 'You barged right in without taking your shoes off.' Do you think... you'll remember me at least a little? 'If I ever forget you... you'd come back to haunt me.' You'd better not hit the reset button. 'As if I ever would.' Don't forget me, okay? 'Okay.' That's a promise, okay? 'Okay' i'm glad it's you, after all. Will I reach you? I hope I can reach you. Kousei Arima... I love you. I love you. I love you. Sorry I didn't finish all the canelés. Sorry I hit you so much. Sorry I was so much of a brat. A million times... I'm sorry. Thank you.

Anyone still here rewatching this every April ?

One more April without happiness

It's april 💔😭

Tomorrow is april.. April without her. I’m coming back here to pay respect to her 😢

man, i'm sobbing

I can't believe I still cry hearing this after a long time 😭😭😭

これを歌も含めて翻訳なしで意味分かるの、良かった

Every year we rewatch march comes in like a lion and your lie in april.

Why does this oddly satifyingly makes me feel tingly ticklish as if someone is tickling or massaging my left side of my head, left side behind my ear, left side of my neck that travels down to mylrft back and left lower back. It feels good 😂 Can someone explain the scien e part behind this??

here

you know ? when you born at 18th Februari. It is sad. Because when you celebrating your birthday. You remember the day Kaori... FUCK IT'S HER SURGERY

what did u have in ur heart ? what did you lean on? I HAD YOU

Kaori chan you will forever be in my hearts thank for everything and fixing kouseo 😊🥲

Cannot stop the tears again

Ahhh, even if the story is over. I will see you again at the next banquet.

I hate April.. And my girlfriend's name is April..

I don't think I can watch a different anime for a while

This still makes me sad. I'm trying to hold the tears back lol

What is that violin piece that plays in the back at this time 0:21

This has to be the saddest love letter I ever listen

For those curious peeps on kaori's disease. It was friedriechs Astaxia. Friedreich's ataxia is an inherited disorder that affects some of the body's nerves. It is caused by a gene defect that is inherited from both parents. Symptoms often begin in late childhood and can include trouble walking, fatigue, changes in sensation, and slowed speech. But to kaoris situation slowed speech didnt hit her but the disease spread faster.

5:00 Nagi said, " Teacher Arima's piano " . She loves Kousei. (Nagi said, " Arima-sensei no piano " ) (凪は「有馬先生のピアノ」と言ったことから、彼女は有馬に恋しているのは明白ですね！ つまり、ピアノの様に触れて欲しいと思っている筈。 凪は、思春期の女の子) I am Japanese. Thank you.

The hole in my heart from this letter I don't know if it will heal 😭 we will never forget u kaori

❤❤

EMDR effect is so soothing. This is therapy ❤

It's more emotional and sad then "I want to eat your pancreas" , for me ........

Its a tradition to come here once in a while.

Ahh memories 😩😭I luv this anime sm and his back story! I cried during his whole past😭 THIS ANIME IS SO AWESOME! FULL RECOMMENDED! ITS A MUST WATCH❤

так, я сейчас сижу в комнате с несколькими людьми и слушаю это. мое лицо каменное, как обычно, но внутри меня всего воротит. я еле сдерживаюсь, чтобы не заплакать. так вот, я не знаю, как чувствовал себя Косей после ее признания в письме, но на ее месте я бы такое не писал. ну то есть он и так выпилиться хочет из-за ее смерти, так тут еще и навсегда упущенный шанс.

5:59 ❤😢

enough make a grown man cry

Which episode scene is this someone tell me 😭❤️‍🩹

Damn this hurts 🤕 bruh it's like..... She's really right next to me

another spring without her :(

Crying rn 😢

I’ve watched this so many times yet I’m still crying

Another April without her

Well, another April, another heartbreak. Time to rewatch it. Fml gonna cry again.

Another april without you, kaori-san

It's another April without you
