Following last weeks Sincerely, I've decided to make a piano arrangement from an another Kyoani Anime: Daisy, the ED of Kyoukai no kanata. This song reminds me a little bit of a Vocaloid music because of the repeating piano pattern in the background and the overall "electronic" sound of the synthesizers.
No matter how often I listen to Daisy, I always get excited when I hear the chorus part.
I think one of the driving force for the entire piece is the off-beat bass rhythm and for some reason, it has a irresistable appeal to me. I tried to replicate all these rhythm pattern on the piano in the left hand and was more staccato and non-pedal than usual.
One of the big challenges of this song was actually arranging the second verse for the piano, because the melody consists of repeating the same D-note over and over again. I tried to make it sound more natural by adding the piano melody from the introduction part in the left hand in 1:38.
Instead of copy and pasting the first chorus like I always do, the second chorus in 02:13 has a variation with a vastly different atmosphere. I tried to create a dreamlike scenery on the piano, recreating the image of the beautiful night sky in the Ending animation of Kyoukai no Kanata. I am a big fan of OP and ED animations and I always dissect them frame by frame in my free time to analyze how each scene is transitioning into the other. It is usually extremely well done and I can't help but to admire the animators creating these wonderful sceneries.
The original song ends with a "open" Dmaj7/9 chord and I decided to do the same on the piano: starting 04:21 the melody is slowly climbing higher and higher, until it reaches the highest piano range, resembling the night sky as mentioned earlier. The arrangement ends in the same dreamlike atmosphere as it has started and the music has finally come full circle.
Well that's it for this week's upload! This song has been on my to-do list for a very long time and it was requested many times since I have first played it in my Animenz Live concert in 2014. It's nice to revisit those old pieces again and arranging it again with my current style.
I still haven't decided which song I am going to arrange next week, but I will keep an eye open for interesting songs. Anime Song suggestions in the comments are welcome!
With that said, see you next week!

![Sakayume - Jujutsu Kaisen 0: The Movie ED [Piano] / King Gnu](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/uQ_9X6Af1oA/mqdefault.jpg "Sakayume - Jujutsu Kaisen 0: The Movie ED [Piano] / King Gnu
Sheet music → https://mymusic.st/animenzzz/62967
First and foremost, I love the song Sakayume. When the credits started to roll at the end of the Jujutsu Kaisen movie in the cinemas, I just sat there and couldn’t believe my ears: Starting with an unforgettable melancholic string introduction, followed by a hauntingly beautiful chorus melody, and finally the breathtaking key change at the end: This song by King Gnu is simply awe-inspiring.
I decided to make a special piano arrangement by using my past knowledge about classical music and the end result is a “Piano Ballad”: A piece with many lyrical elements and a big emotional finale at the end.
① 1:01 How to make “organic” key changes on the piano
The original voice performance from King Gnu is simply amazing because of their brilliant use of voice glissando (slowly raising the pitch) for the key changes in the piece. Unfortunately, the piano is unable to perform these kind of smooth glissandos (unlike violins) and therefore I used an alternative key change in 1:01. Instead of d-minor → g♭-major I changed it to d-minor → g-major because these two keys are much closer musically related. All I needed to do is to simply change the f note in d-minor into a f# note.
② 1:07 Arranging in a “Piano Ballad” style
The slow string intro at the beginning of the song in 0:09 basically sets up the bittersweet atmosphere for the entire piece and I tried to expand it on the piano. When the drums started to play in the original piece in 1:07, I used arpeggios instead to maintain a more romantic soundscape. But once the original piece starts to play a noticeable pizzicato in 1:41, I also used staccato in the arrangement as well. The goal is to find a middle point between my own interpretation and faithfully following the characteristics of the original song.
③ 5:14 The “ascension” from darkness to light
In the movie, the main character Okkotsu is facing many hurdles to overcome his “curse” and I wanted to represent his inner conflict on the piano as well: I started by playing a diminished chord (“mysterious sounding chord”) in 4:57 and with each chord progression, the music is slowly “ascending” until it finally has found its destination in 5:14.
From this moment on, the music is preparing for its climax and it keeps building up and up - until it finally releases all the emotions in the grand finale in 5:21, heavily inspired by the music of Chopin. It is also worth mentioning that the arrangement itself started with a D major chord in 0:01 and ended with an Eb major chord in 6:26. In a way, the whole music has also experienced an “ascension” - by a semitone.
Alright, that’s it for this week! Thank you for reading my “Animenz explains” column!
I hope you enjoyed reading the behind-the-scenes for this arrangement and gained some insight, how I arrange music in a “Ballad” style! It really has been a while since I was so captivated by a song but Sakayume is just so good. I simply can’t stop listening to it.
With that said, I am already working on my next upload! It’s from a seasonal anime and it’s going to be a groovy song again – quite the opposite from this upload (笑)
See you next time again!

![KICK BACK - Chainsaw Man OP [Piano] / Kenshi Yonezu](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/ub5dNHEagDA/mqdefault.jpg "KICK BACK - Chainsaw Man OP [Piano] / Kenshi Yonezu
Sheet Music → https://mymusic.st/animenzzz/78176
The much anticipated anime of Chainsaw Man is finally airing this season! And it starts with a banger of a song: KICK BACK from Kenshi Yonezu - definitely one of the catchiest songs I have heard in a while.
Not only does KICK BACK has a crazy amount of key changes, it also has one of the most epic mood changes I have ever heard. The music in 1:41 suddenly changes from utterly dark and chaotic into extremely bright and hopeful and for a brief moment, I felt like I was walking in musical heaven. Amazing moment.
① Chainsaw and a fist... on the piano?
Did you notice the left hand glissando at the very beginning in 0:01? I actually tried to imitate the sound of a Chainsaw, similar to the original song. Likewise, this arrangement also ends with a glissando again in 3:08, bringing the song to a full circle.
I also used my fist in 2:06 for the first time to hammer down the chord for maximum dynamic power. But needless to say, you shouldnt overdo it or else the strings of the piano might break, haha.
② Chaos in the rhythm
The most difficult part to arrange was actually the 努力・未来・A BEAUTIFUL STAR in the beginning, because there are multiple rhythms overlapping with each other. On top of that, I also used octaves in the left hand because I wanted to create a punchy bass line for this arrangement. I also used a lot of staccato during the chorus in 0:51 to further accentuate the chaotic atmosphere of the song.
③ The string orchestra appears!
As mentioned earlier above, the sudden musical contrast in 1:41 was simply brilliant and I am pretty sure the arranger of the original song - Tsuneta Daiki from King Gnu - had a huge influence here, since he loves to include beautiful string instruments in King Gnus music.
I tried to mirror it on the piano as well by letting the right hand play an additional layer of melody in 1:41 to sound like strings from a orchestra. This is also one of the rare cases where the left hand is able to play both the melody and the bass at the same time (with only minimal help from the right hand), resulting in an almost perfect three hand technique.
Alright, thank you for reading my Animenz explains column for this arrangement! KICK BACK is a really amazing song and no matter how often I repeat it, it simply never gets boring. I hope you could find the same chaos of kicking back (the phenomenon of bouncing back vigorously while using a chainsaw) in this piano arrangement too!
The fact that MAPPA makes different ED songs each week with top tier Japanese artists also shows their dedication to the Chainsaw Man anime. We truly live in the best timeline.
Well then, I will continue working on my 2M medley project! The special medley is scheduled to be uploaded in early December!
See you next time again!

Sheet music → https://mymusic.st/animenzzz/62792
Although this song is only used in 6 episodes as the third ending song in Sword Art Online II, it still remains one of my favorite SAO endings, because the incredible vocal performance by LiSA is simply unforgettable.
I am getting the chills every time I am hearing the raw power of LiSAs voice in the chorus part and since I actually watched one of LiSAs live performances in the past, I was completely amazed by her ability to sing the high note (in the chorus) with such an passion. She made an emotional song even more emotional - it was really amazing.
I played my piano arrangement of Shirushi quite a few times in my Animenz live concerts and this is basically another finalized version, based on my concert improvisations. (similar to my God knows... video from last week)
I was polishing some parts in the arrangement until the flow of the music just feels right. My earlier version of this arrangement was lacking the nuanced voicings of the melodies and occasionally it became even too cluttered because of excessive ornamentations or whenever the bass notes became too loud. Moderation is the key I guess.
You might notice that this arrangements have some parts, where the only the bare minimum voicing is being played. Since my Secret Base arrangement two weeks ago, I really like the idea of music taking a breath, because the listener has a the chance to focus again to the melody.
To maximize the impact of the final chorus, I was making full use of the piano and finally introduced some fast scales in the right hand, playing the melody in a seemingly improvised style while still retaining the original spirit of the song.
Well, thats it for this weeks upload! I still dont know what I am going to upload next, but it will definitely be another nostalgia nostalgia song from 2008-2014, since I have watched the most anime during this time period.
See you next time!

The manga of Hunter x Hunter is finally returning this year! Togashi senseis announcement on twitter last week was a complete surprise and it has caused an unprecedented HxH hype in the global anime and manga community. I absolutely love the manga and I couldnt be happier about this big news. Therefore, I just HAD to arrange a Hunter x Hunter song for this week: Hyori Ittai, the legendary ending song from the Chimera Ant arc!
① The Hyori Itt - ttai rhythm in 1:28
This piano arrangement is following the original song as close as possible and even the tiniest detail such as the transition in 0:21 has been recreated on the piano. I especially paid attention to the characteristic Hyori Itt - ttai rhythm in 1:28 and articulated them as clear as possible on the piano. I liked that rhythm so much that I repeated it again in 1:34 by matching the left hand rhythm with the right hand.
② The duet in 2:21
My favorite part from the original song is the definitely the second verse: The rhythmic energy in 2:10 is simply too addicting and once the double voice begins to sing in 2:21 the musical intensity is reaching a completely new level. This song by YUZU is just too awesome.
③ The time signature riddle in 4:16
The transition before the final chorus in 4:16 also deserves special mention. I honestly have no idea what exactly is happening in the original song because the music is full of echo effects and without any discernible time signature. After a lot of experimentation I finally found a suitable time signature (two 9/8 bars) and I build up the tension in the music with arpeggios until the Hyori Ittai in 4:23 is finally returning again.
Alright, thats it for this week! Thank you for listening to my piano arrangement! I am still so hyped about the upcoming new manga chapters of Hunter X Hunter. I honestly have already completely given up on the conclusion of the legendary HxH Manga - until the announcement last week. We truly live in the best timeline.
My next video is going to be another Shounen Anime song! Its time to have another month of nostalgia again. See you then! And Lets dye this world! 🎵

![YouSeeBIGGIRL / Apple Seed - Attack on Titan OST [Piano]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/w40eGwOoJz0/mqdefault.jpg "YouSeeBIGGIRL / Apple Seed - Attack on Titan OST [Piano]
The famous music of YOU DAMM TRAITORS!!! (ep 31) and Thank you, for wrapping this scarf around me (ep 37).
Sheet Music → https://mymusic.st/animenzzz/60161
This Soundtrack from Attack on Titan is also known as “Apple Seed” (ep 52), which is the vocalized version of “YouSeeBIGGIRL”. The OST is played in many important moments of the Anime but the most famous example is probably episode 31, when Eren is shouting YOU TRAITORS!!! after that two characters showed their true identities as Warriors. Its also used in episode 37, in the dramatic moment when Mikasa tells Eren Thank you, for wrapping this scarf around me.
Until today, this scene is still one of my favorite scenes in the Attack on Titan anime and I tried my best to create a piano version of “YouSeeBIGGIRL” with a similar dramatic impact as the original soundtrack.
① “The beginning of the tragedy”
Attack on Titan is essentially a story about one tragedy after another and I have structured my arrangement of YouSeeBIGGIRL in a similar way: It starts with a melancholic beginning in 0:01 until the first tragedy unfolds in 1:04. After the first climax in 2:33 it is followed by a moment of silence in 3:49 until the next “happening” starts in 4:52, culminating in an emotional finale in 5:40. I realized that the more anime soundtracks I arrange, the more I enjoy the process of including “story-telling” in the music.
② “Something BIG is coming”
I was thinking for a long time how to arrange the long musical buildup in 2:10 before the BIG climax crashes down in 2:33. The original piece has a pulsating drum rhythm playing in the background during 2:10 but I realized that imitating the rhythm alone on the piano is not enough. Therefore, I also added some chord progressions in the left hand in 2:22 to slowly build up the tension. And after some experimenting, I also included a small pause in 2:31 to maximize the impact of the climax in 2:34.
③ An “alternative” ending
The original soundtrack has a part of “Vogel in Käfig” in the second half but I have arranged a full version of this piece already. I could have simply ended the arrangement at 3:45 but I had a feeling the arrangement is still missing one half. That’s where I had the idea to include the soundtrack “ətˈæk 0N tάɪtn” in 3:51 to bring this arrangement to a musically satisfying conclusion. In 5:16 and 5:28 I even combined the right hand motif from “YouSeeBIGGIRL” with the main melody of “ətˈæk 0N tάɪtn”, foreshadowing the final climax in 5:40. In a way, this arrangement combines the two most important soundtracks from Season 1 and Season 2, representing the struggles ＜Humans vs Titans＞ in the early story arcs of Attack on Titan.
Alright, thank you for reading this week’s video description! I also updated the missing Animenz Explains column in Vogel in Käfig video description! Try to compare these two arrangements since they are related musical twins!
This is probably the last Attack on Titan piano arrangement for the foreseeable future and starting next upload, there will be more pieces from seasonal anime again!
See you in the next video again!

Sheet music → https://mymusic.st/animenzzz/45726
YOASOBI has become one of the biggest music sensations in Japan since their debut release in 2019 with “Yoru ni Kakeru” and I decided to arrange “Kaibutsu” this week as my first YOASOBI piano cover!
When I was arranging “Kaibutsu”, I also played a slow, improvised version of the chorus melody on the piano. I realized it actually works quite well as an additional “introduction” for the piece and included it in 0:01. I was imagining Legoshi (the main character from BEASTARS) is having some sort of introspection at the beginning of this song. Walking alone in the deep night, dealing with his anxiety and thinking about his role in the society.
I kept the voice range of the first verse very low in 0:32 in order to maximize the impact of the chorus melody in 1:06. I have to admit, it feels very satisfying to go all out with the octave melody during the chorus part. I also used a different left-hand pattern for each repeating section of the music in order to add more variety in the music. For example, the left hand is playing an additional bass melody in 1:46 or 2:20.
Last but not least: Did you notice that all three chorus are actually played in a different key? C#-minor in 1:06, Bb-minor in 2:42, and finally D-minor in 3:02. (G#-minor in 0:01 as well, if you include my intro part) It’s amazing that despite so many key changes, the song still feels very natural from start until the end. This is also one of the things I really like about Ayase (the composer of YOASOBI): His clever use of key changes in the music to raise the tension in the music.
Alright, that’s it for today! I hope you enjoyed my piano arrangement of Kaibutsu and I am already working on my next arrangement already! It is going to be another frequently requested song.
See you next time!

My piano cover of the opening song of Hyouka -Yasashisa no Riyuu.
I still wish there would be a continuation of the Hyouka Anime, but regarding the current circumstances of Kyoto Animation, its seems impossible now...
The relationship development between Oreki and Chitanda was simply amazing and the final episode - Orekis confession while the Cherry Blossom petals are falling - is simply magical and its still one of my favorite Anime moments of all time. I wish there would be more Anime series with these subtle, and yet powerful moments like Hyouka.

Sorry for not uploading for a very long time.
I was busy with a lot of private stuff and my Animenz Live 2018 tour also kept me busy.
But all is well now, because...
私が来た!!
I finally caught up some Anime series in the past few months. I havent watched so many anime episodes in such a short time since YEARS and damn, it feels so good to be truly back into anime.
(I have almost watched zero anime series in both 2017 and 2018, but now I have caught up most of it)
Speaking of missing out:
Why didnt you guys tell me about Boku no Hero Academia before? Its freaking awesome and the animation is absolutely amazing!
I started with this track My Hero Academia, because its one of my favorite OSTs of BnHA and I love the bass rhythms in this track.
Since its been a while to make an arrangement, I didnt use my old techniques like arpeggios and three hand technique that much for this but will slowly start to expand my arrangement technique so that I become more familiar with arranging again.
Anyway, it feels really good to be back, and THIS time, it will last for the next few months!
Well then, now excuse me while I rewatch episode 49 of BnHA for the 100th time again because the UNITED STATES OF SMASH scene is seriously one of the most awesome moments in Anime Ive ever seen.
See you next time!

Have you seen the anime movie Sakasama no Patema (or Patema Inverted) yet?
Its the newest full-length movie from Yasuhiro Yoshiura, the mastermind behind Eve no Jikan and Pale Cocoon.
I just watched this movie yesterday and I really really loved it.
I was amazed by the incredible visuals and I have always dreamt of a setting like this: what happens, if the gravity for some people is reversed?
The ending song Patema Inverse - composed by one of my favorite anime composers, Michiru Oshima, has been stuck in my head for hours now, so I spontaneously decided to make a piano sheet for the ending song.
Heres the original song performed by Estelle Michaeu. The language is Esperanto btw, a constructed language. (actually a very beautiful sounding language...)

Well then, if you can spare 1 hours and 40 minutes, go and watch this amazing movie, now. Its one of the most interesting sci-fi anime movies Ive seen for years.
