[Read all▲▼] VS (manga) [Rating▲▼] Very good [Comment▲▼] 
This is a different sort of shoujo manga. The protagonist is a boy, a violin prodigy, who attends a prestigous art school and is assigned a new instructor in order to win some big music contest (I know absolutely nothing about classical music). The tone of the story is a bit more mature than I was expecting. The plot is basically about the characters working to overcome their personal issues to succeed. The two leads, SaioIn and Hane sensei were well written and developed. The romance element unfolded in an unexpected way (if not the way I prefered). I strongly disliked a certain character, but I don't want to spoil it. The ending was well written and realistic. All in all, I quite liked the series.
