Burying my anger in the past

I think Lie in April is pretty good and I think that it's on Netflix. It's about a boy that loses a love of playing music due to personal trauma but is able to rekindle his love through a melodica playing friend that has a tragic secret.

Kakegurui is set in a high school where gambling is openly encouraged and is the cornerstone for the social hierarchy among the students. I do not remember seeing any teachers or classes being taught in this "school". The appeal of the anime might be the character designs and the extreme punishments that could be meted out for the losers, which might also be a negative given how some of the characters reveal in the thrill of experiencing the punishment. There are two seasons, I think.

The Dragon Prince was made by the same people who created Avatar: The Last Airbender and yet this series doesn't have the charm of ATLA. The animation style is ok though personally, I didn't like it though I couldn't tell you why. There are a number of diverse characters with motivations and histories with the goal of some trying to take the place of the missing/dead? king in the middle of tensions between dragons, humans and elves(?). With all that, you would think that this series was interesting but I really couldn't finish the second season buy maybe someone else can?

I didn't mind the music in Carole & Tuesday and the connection established between the two protagonists with opposite backgrounds was nice but the way in which things happen for the two is very unrealistic especially when the narrator waxes about the last concert that they hold. I'm not sure if anything is resolved satisfactorily but the music is ok.

Haikyuu is a sports anime that I think is a must watch if you're a fan of the genre. There is the typical, inexperienced newbie that has enormous potential/talent waiting to be unlocked as the team seeks to reach the pinnacle of their sport but I think that the way that the anime executes this is really well done. The animation is well done and the motivations of the other teams and the other members of the team are well done in the brief time that they are given throughout the seasons.

Beastars is good but I can't seem to come up with a writeup for it.
