Wait, I missed this...

I won't even go bash the emo-style OP much, because even though the first one was consistent ear rape, let's talk about the BGM...

Oh wait, there's nothing to talk about the BGM. It's not even there half the time. The greatest weakness of its filler episodes is that it's devoid of music, making the atmosphere absolutely dry. And when they do have it, it's the same few tunes-- extremely repetitious.

Incidentally the last episode had some more, but... still, I can't see (or really hear) anything of significance.

I haven't seen that much anime where the sound is that lacking with dead silence. Incidentally, it's the weaker episodes that do this more.

And this is why I used Yosuga no Sora, as an example of good use of BGM. But even if we don't compare it to that, that's probably the greatest difference between True Tears and Hana Saku Iroha if we just count atmosphere. And there's Angel Beats...
