Haruchika is a COMPLETELY ORIGINAL anime that just happens to bear some cosmetic similarities to Hibike and Hyouka. It's an allegory for the average Japanese high school student's experiences in WW2.
Hibike meanwhile is a blatant ripoff of K-On with some Your Lie in April thrown in, and Hyouka is a blatant ripoff of Detective Conan with some Gosick and SZS thrown in. Pony Canyon, Kadokawa, and Aniplex should've sued the shit out of Kyoanus.

Is this the Kyoani circlejerk thread? K-On a shit, by the way.
Brayden Myers
The designs were genuinely creepy. Colors were bad, and a glare to the whole thing.
Nicholas Nguyen
Haruchika has some of the worst designs/art/visuals I've seen.
Jonathan Reyes
So, did this show actually have lesbian and gay MCs?
Kevin Brown
Only gay MC.
Andrew Parker
Cool girls get all the bitches
Carter Evans
And what do you know, they are all shit
David Bell
I wonder if P.A. Works watched Hibike the season before and decided that they also needed yuri fanservice in their band anime.
William Ortiz
Chika had a nice harem.
Eli Cooper
Haruchika is also complete trash, while Hibike was good.
Xavier Rogers
harucyka?
Isaiah Murphy
Why is Chika so perfect, bros?
Sebastian Gonzalez
Watched this for muh Chiaki Omigawa fix.
Adam Perry
But what if you don't care about all that and just watched for the twins
Joshua Sullivan
Then you have great taste and should feel good
Ryan Sanders
Why are you shitposting a show that literally no one liked?
Aiden Green
Why are you shitposting?
Wyatt Jackson
Kyoanifags are literally retarded. If there's a ripoff here is Hibikek. The Haruchika novels are from 2008, Hibikek is from 2013.
James Barnes
You're dumb for getting baited, but it's possible that PA saw that Kyoani bought the rights to a novel about a school band and thought they could capitalize by getting one of their own.
Logan Ward
>honk!
Carson Carter
Haruchika is from 2008.
Though I can say that the anime is really bad, really it's just an ad for the Live action.
Rushed, cut content that makes everything look souless and uninspired.
Jack Bailey
Why are you?
Ryder Scott
That show I watched for the Marty Friedman guitar solo.
Jason Harris
>no one noticing OP is based on a Madoka/YYY ripoff pasta
