Hibike! Euphonium: Suisougaku-bu no Nichijou

I have to say, the Sound Euphonium shorts provide much-needed humor for the main characters. While I did like the main story for Euphonium and it was straightforward as it could be, the thing I felt was missing was a lack of humor or characters that I could personally relate to. The shorts cover the characters in wacky situations, I had a couple of laughs from them. I've come to love the main characters after watching these shorts TBH, and those who haven't watched them should do so after watching the first season to fill in that humor gap lacking in the main story.

Hibike! Euphonium: Suisougaku-bu no Nichijou is a hilarious series of short clips that can be enjoyed by anyone in just one sitting, regardless of having watched or not watched Hibike! Euphonium. The series is extremely short, with no episode being longer than three minutes, so as a result this review will also be very short.
Usually my first paragraph would be a story summary, but Hibike! Euphonium: Suisougaku-bu no Nichijou is a seven-episode miniseries of non-episodic events, making a summary very difficult. Usually each clip follows Kumiko, Hazuki, and Sapphire with the ending being Hazuki surprised by something that Reina does, such as playing a C ... on her Trumpet. There isn’t too much to summarize but the series is less than twenty minutes in length, so it isn’t too hard to watch it in one sitting.
I rather enjoyed this short series quite a lot. The joke with Reina and the end of a few episodes made me laugh each time and I loved to get to see a small snippet into the lives of a few of the band. The lack of an intro or end credit song is unfortunate but the music that is present is already good on its own so that slightly makes up for it. There isn’t too much else I could say on this show, in the sense of praise.
I do unfortunately have a few complaints, but nothing too bad. As I stated before, I didn’t enjoy the lack of an intro or outro but that is understandable due to the length of each episode. Besides that point, the animation was a lot less present than in the main series, which is understandable because this series was made in between episodes for the main show.
I know I didn’t have too much to say, but I really did enjoy this short series and would recommend it to anyone, even if they haven’t seen Hibike! Euphonium. The episodes are actually more like a teaser that people interested in Hibike! Euphonium might want to watch before watching the main series to see if they may want to watch the main series, but it's even good to those who already watch the main show. Overall, it is definitely worth a watch, but I wouldn’t rewatch this show anytime soon.

I don't normally watch TV specials whether it be due to laziness or not wanting to watch it. However I was bored so I just decided to check out this series of specials.

What this is is basically a bunch of misadventures with the characters of Hibike! Euphonium. None of the episodes have anything to do with each other and plot is non existant though some of the episodic stories were decent. Art is the same as the main series and the sound is good despite not enough music. Characters were zany and fun.

So in conclusion these specials were ok and functioned ... as a time waster. But I guess they were pretty funny and worth watching for fans of the main series.
