Reception

edit

Fanfare of Adolescence has received generally mixed to negative reviews from critics. Teddy Cambosa of Anime Corner criticized the show's lack of focus on the horse racing aspects of the show as well as the writing of the storytelling and characters, calling it "All Idols, No Horse-Racing."[20] Nicholas Dupree of Anime News Network shared similar sentiments, with him naming the show as the worst of the season it aired, stating "there's nothing about it I could describe as “good” outside of some isolated visuals courtesy of its talented director."[21][22] Natsuki Hanae's acting also received criticism, with Teddy Cambosa of Anime Corner calling it "overwhelming" and Gracie Qu of Anitrendz describing it as "unnatural" due to him acting a character that was supposed to be a bilingual.[23]
