It feels odd how, as an American, this anime about a traditional Japanese instrument and the kids who play it could be so moving. I've watched this series 3 times and I sincerely hope that the Covid-19 pandemic did not completely derail the production of Season 3. I want to see the club win their National competition.
I enjoyed watching the closure to so many stories, but I also want to see what new stories open before them, as well as how the competition mounts. It was also nice (though sad) to see the stories of some of the other teams and how they handled their defeat in the Qualifiers. Remember, there were 13 defeats that day, as well as 1 winner.
