This video is a homage to my first anime song piano cover on YouTube. 14th December 2010 marks the day when I first uploaded anime-related piano cover, and the song is Cardcaptor Sakura's 3rd opening, Platinum. It's been my most favorite opening theme of all time, and I can even argue that it's the best opening theme ever composed. Here's to the good memories.

How is it the best opening theme ever composed? Transpose. It does so in the most beautiful way anyone can imagine. They're so seamless, even I had a hard time differentiating each one. The song doesn't transpose just for the sake of having transpose elements, the transpose is the identity of the song itself, it's embodied into the core structure of the song. That's just brilliant. It's the charm that no other song has. This is the type of song that I can fall in love with the first time I hear it, so if you guys know songs that are similar to this, feel free to tell me in the comments section below. This version alone consists of 6(?) transposes, the most noticeable two are the ones before the transition between the verse and chorus. I've even lost count on how many transposes are there on the full version. I'm out of words to describe just how brilliant and beautiful this song is, just listen.

Cardcaptor Sakura is my first anime. I can still remember watching the show on CRT TV on a local channel with Indonesian dub. After a few years, the show aired on Animax with English dub. It's amazing how you can bring your childhood memories back right at your fingertips. This warm arrangement cover serves as a reminder that the show continues to live inside people's hearts, even after 18 years. It's still arguably one of the best shows I've ever watched, it's always been on a special place in my heart, and I can't be more grateful for growing up in the late 90s and early 2000s.

This is also my very first piano cover to feature 1080p resolution @ 30 fps on all camera angles.

Fun fact: Sakura Kinomoto is my first crush.
