Hello!
I bought my Pseudolarix amabilis bonsai about two weeks ago and I don't know why it is withering. The first two days after I got it I watered daily and then I noticed that some of the needles started to get softer and bend. I thought I overwatered it so I tried watering it less but to this day it hasn't recovered to its initial state from when I bought it. I attached some photos and I hope I can get some advices on what to do next.
Thank you in advance!

Not enough light for a start. Full sun unless the temperature is 30C plus. Water as needed, not to a schedule, I can't tell where you have this but if it is inside that is the problem. The needles do look fine to me, so I don't know what you think is wrong.

Thank you for helping! I keep it outside, on a balcony, but in its current position it doesn't get full sun so I will find a new place for it. My concern is mainly the needles on the top which when I bought it were were straight but now they shrinked a little bit and curved. Also a few needles started to get brown and die. I made some new photos: the first 2 show the needles that started to die and the other one shows the top needles that shrivelled.

Nothing wrong at all, needles are living things and do die sometimes.The third picture shows new growth
