Hibike! Euphonium → Sound! Euphonium – As is often the case when an anime has an official English title, the article is moved to that title. In this case, the official English title is Sound! Euphonium, so I suggest moving the article to that title. 十八 03:56, 14 April 2015 (UTC)

Per previous precedent, I'll just be bold and move this right away. Since Crunchyroll titles are accepted as English titles anyway. Narutolovehinata5 ^tccsdnew 00:18, 15 April 2015 (UTC)

I would have done it myself if it was possible. You just moved the talk page since the article itself needs an admin to move it, so I moved the talk page back for now.--十八 00:41, 15 April 2015 (UTC)

Support Since that is the official English title.––ひなどり(Hinadori) 02:37, 15 April 2015 (UTC)

Semi-protected edit request on 17 June 2015

I've written up the summary for the latest episode, and I would like someone to add it to the article as I am no longer able to make the changes myself due to the new semi-protected status:

After hearing Reina practice for the audition, Yuko is in disbelief, even privately conceding to Kumiko that she is indeed fit to play the solo. Meanwhile, Kaori attempts to gauge Asuka's opinion regarding her playing. Though Asuka remains evasive in her answers, Kaori decides that she would rather not know instead. The next day, Yuko confronts Reina and pleads her to throw the audition for Kaori's sake, who, as a senior, will not have the chance to play again. Reina, defiant as ever, declares that Kaori's circumstances have nothing to do with her and leaves. Before the audition, Haruka goes to see Kaori when Asuka refuses; likewise, Kumiko visits Reina and reminds her that in order to become something special, she must win. At the audition, Kaori plays first, but as Reina finishes her performance, it is clear to the band that Reina was the better soloist. However, when asked to decide by Mr. Taki, nearly everyone abstains from voting; only Yuko and Haruka vote for Kaori, while Reina similarly receives applause only from Kumiko and Hazuki. Faced with a tie, Mr. Taki asks Kaori to play, but, having heard Reina, accepts the results and declines, leaving Reina once again as the soloist.

Please also add ″June 16, 2015″ to the original air date. The number of the episodes in the Infobox should probably also be changed—Amazon.co.jp lists seven Blu-ray/DVD releases with two episodes each, for a total of 14 episodes instead of the current 12. 180.93.253.145 (talk) 06:07, 17 June 2015 (UTC)

Please add this week's episode summary and information to the relevant section of the article:

No.	Title	Original air date
12	"My Euphonium" Transliteration: "Watashi no Yūfoniamu" (Japanese: わたしのユーフォニアム)	June 23, 2015
Mr. Taki asks the euphoniums to play an additional section. While Asuka is quick to learn the part, Kumiko finds herself struggling to master the piece despite relentless practice. During an ensemble, Mr. Taki asks whether or not she will be ready by the competition; Kumiko confidently declares to him that she will. Encouraged by Reina and other members of the bass section, Kumiko continues to practice the part. However, during a critique of the band's performance, Mr. Taki suddenly asks Asuka to play the part solo, leaving Kumiko feeling mortified. Attempting to cheer her up, Hazuki and Midori invite Kumiko out to eat, but neglect to notice that she has forgotten her phone. Running into Shuichi on the way home, Kumiko breaks down crying but finally realizes how Reina must have felt when they lost the concert band competition in junior high. Returning to school to retrieve her phone, Kumiko runs into Mr. Taki, who reminds her of her promise to be ready by the competition and urges her to continue practicing. Realizing that she still has a chance to perform, Kumiko meets up with Reina to share with her the good news.

Thanks again. 180.93.253.17 (talk) 19:25, 23 June 2015 (UTC)

Please add the final episode summary and information to the relevant section of the article:

No.	Title	Original air date
13	"Goodbye Competition" Transliteration: "Sayonara Konkūru" (Japanese: さよならコンクール)	June 30, 2015
As the day of the competition arrives, the band members all engage in preparations for the upcoming event. Natsuki and Hazuki, along with the other non-performing band members, present to everyone their own personalized good luck charms; Haruka expresses her gratitude for the gesture before offering the band her own words of encouragement. Midori, sensing Kumiko's nervousness over her fear of failure, reassures her. At the concert hall, Mr. Taki reminds the band members that it was they who set the goal of making it to nationals before exhorting them to put on a spectacular performance. Shuichi, despite lingering romantic tensions with Kumiko, attempts to reconcile with her; Kumiko responds positively with a fist bump. During the performance, Kumiko reminisces back on her junior high days and admits that despite having wished to go to nationals before, she never thought it a serious goal until now. When the results are announced, the band celebrates their victory while an overjoyed Reina tearfully hugs Kumiko.

Please also render all instances of "nationals" in the previous episode summaries as lower case and change the case of the rōmaji title of episode 4 from "Utau Yo Sorufēju" to "Utau yo Sorufēju". The number of episodes in the top Infobox should also be changed to 13—this week's title card specifically refers to this episode as the final episode. Thanks again. 180.93.252.180 (talk) 19:04, 30 June 2015 (UTC)

Done. —Kirt^Message 19:32, 30 June 2015 (UTC)

Episode 4 summary

The following line seems to come from a misunderstanding of the conversation at 11:48. Can a Japanese expert verify/fix it?

On the way home, Kumiko again runs into Shuichi, who tells her that it is Mr. Taki's first time advising a concert band.

Redundant note

Why is there a note 1, regarding how Ogasawara is addressed by her bandmates? Isn't this standard for anime? Wouldn't this apply to pretty much every character in every show? I don't want to delete it because there might be something specific here that I'm unaware of. ogenstein (talk) 06:50, 13 October 2016 (UTC)

It looks like it was added with this edit, though I agree with you that there doesn't seem to be any justification for its inclusion.--十八 06:56, 13 October 2016 (UTC)

Regarding the reversion of my edit as ‘unnecessary’

First off, don't go around just reverting other people's work. My version is objectively better than the previous one. I've you've still got problems with it, discuss it on the talk page first.

1. Not collapsing the ‘List of musical pieces featured in the anime’ box solves a problem caused by the wiki software being unable to link from a note to content in collapsed boxes. Considering that there's nothing really gained by collapsing the box, the only sensible thing to do at present is not to collapse the box.

2. My wording of the caption of the box is considerably clearer than the previous wording. The previous wording doesn't make it clear at all; the simple fact that I had to ask in the first place is sufficient proof. Why be deliberately vague?

And Sjones23, don't say things like ‘unnecessary edit, if you disagree please do so on the talk page’ when you yourself revert good edits without any sort of explanation or discussion. You don't own the page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.114.146.117 (talk) 18:47, 19 January 2017 (UTC)

Please, do not start a edit war when your edits are reverted by other users. Read WP:CONSENSUS. The headline seems fine to me, and collapsing featured music is standard practice.--Sakretsu (talk) 20:25, 19 January 2017 (UTC)

Liz und ein Blauer Vogel

Question: Is Liz und ein Blauer Vogel notable enough to get a own article at Wikipedia. I mean it was nominated for a Satellite Award, at Sitges Film Festival and is actually shortlisted for a nomination in Best Animated Film category at the 2019s Oscars. I started the German-languaged article and maybe someone with better English skills than me might be able to start an article about that movie here. Same goes for the anime movie I Want to Eat Your Pancreas (anime), see de:Kimi no Suizō o Tabetai. --Goroth (talk) 07:36, 8 January 2019 (UTC)

I think that completely. But the one who decides to write an article will have to prepare for obvious disputes about romance vs friendship, since the interpretation of the relationship of these two girls is a pretty hot topic on the Internet. Solaire the knight (talk) 21:42, 9 January 2019 (UTC)

Really? Never knew about the drama around the two protagonists. I watched the movie and yes, it is very deep and complex to get through but I guess if it is possible to stand on a NPOV it should not be a problem. There could be an analysis chapter in this article as well if there are reliable sources. I only found something about the connection of the fairy tale and the friendship between Nozomi and Mizore. --Goroth (talk) 08:53, 10 January 2019 (UTC)

Yamada's role

@Sarcataclysmal: So I added the bit about Yamada to the article...from the interview that was referenced (translation here), it is clear that Yamada had a major creative role in the series, and had just as much of a hand as Ishihara in shaping the direction of the show. (Perhaps more of a hand--Ishihara was focused on the more technical and logistical side of directing.) Both of them did storyboard checks, etc. (The extent of her role is also clear from the show itself, where her directorial fingerprints are all over the series.)

I also don't know if it's fair to compare Yamakon's role in Haruhi, as Eupho came a decade later. Sandtalon (talk) 02:19, 9 July 2021 (UTC)

Ah, I suppose that is fair. My apologies, but thanks for the insight. Sarcataclysmal (talk) 02:28, 9 July 2021 (UTC)

@Sandtalon: I've re-added Yamada's credit and mentioned it in a note instead. I've also added her to the films, since she seems to be credited there, as well as with the final film where she has the "chifu enshutsu" credit. Sarcataclysmal (talk) 02:34, 9 July 2021 (UTC)
