Hibike! Euphonium 3: Extra Episodes

Unlike the specials for the previous two seasons that mostly focus on comedy, these six shorts are more serious in telling, each unrolling a unique story about the characters. The way these stories are told is different from that of the main season with forceful clashes and confrontations. These stories slow the pace down. It's like taking a snapshot at a certain point in time, listening to the characters talking about their most minute and most beautiful feelings. These shorts have very little animation, but the way one keyframe fades into the next really amplifies the ephemeral nature of these precious emotions, and, I think, fits thetheme very well. If you like the main series, you should definitely watch these specials as well.
