I understand that 'da capo' is a musical term, so i was expecting some beautiful music. everywhere you go in akihabara, you see da capo's art. this is one of the main reason i watched this anime. The only thing commendable is probably the art, which is obviously the inspiration of many of the moe animes out nowadays. i couldnt help sighing and hoping it would end sooner in the last 4 episodes. most of the plot is too cliche, too flat, too boring.
