If you want a rationale behind my disliking, a great part of how much liked the first season of the series was the music behind it adn how the music influenced the characters. As an amateur piano student myself I could share in many cases the experiences the characters went through by playing the different pieces. Mozart's piano sonata for 2 pianos . Beethoven's Pathetique. Rachmaninoff piano concerto no.2. They gave an environment and a feeling to the series that was unlike any other series I have seen up to now. The second episode of the second season, the conductors' contest had many great musical pieces that could have been exploited in this same vein. They forwent ALL, and every single one of them, specially the ones in the finals. I couildn't bear to watch any more personally. I read the manga up to the ending for the story, but I don't see any reason to watch the anime anymore. I may give a chance to the third season if reviews are positive in this respect though.
