Given
Given fits its band story and gradual romance into a finished 11-episode season. Crunchyroll carries the complete TV run. The 2019 series is a strong choice for viewers who want music to drive the emotional progression rather than serve as decoration. Its pace is patient, with grief and attraction unfolding through rehearsals, conversation, and the difficult work of turning private feelings into a song. Expect a tender Drama, Music, Romance, and Slice of Life series rather than a fast-moving concert spectacle.
About
Ritsuka Uenoyama knows his way around a guitar, but playing no longer excites him as it once did. His routine changes when he meets Mafuyu Sato, a quiet classmate carrying a damaged guitar and sorrow he cannot easily put into words. Mafuyu asks Ritsuka to teach him, then reveals a voice that gives the request a new urgency. Their lessons draw Mafuyu into an amateur band, where writing and performing offer him a way to approach feelings he has kept shut away. As the group works toward a song, affection begins to grow between the two boys. The premise stays focused on music, mourning, and the uncertainty of getting close to someone.
