Please read me!
Hello again. Been a while, huh?
Since the Acapella, anyway. I apologize for the delay. As I mentioned in previous descriptions, I had to take over this project from the animator after her living situation changed. It was a pretty big undertaking, being so sudden... but I'm happy with how it turned out, given the circumstances. Sorry if you were looking forward to the animation- trust me, so was I! But these things happen sometimes, and there ain't much I can do about it. Sorry, again.
As far as the cover itself, though...
Today is March 20th- the final day in Persona 5. The day that Akira says his goodbyes... the day it all ends. Or the day it *begins again*, if you've been reading my fic!
Yep! I'm still at it. I've added another 30k words since the Acapella, with another thirty thousand on the way! New chapter should be up sometime this month or next, so it's right around the corner! (archiveofourow...)
I... really love writing. Immersing myself in that world, spinning threads and plotlines, putting pen to paper... It's all been so much fun. I think I'll be spending a lot more of my life on it, weird as that sounds. I really like it, so I hope you like it too~!
The next cover will be another 'Life Will Change' tie-in, so give the fic a read if you get the chance! I'd really appreciate you all giving it a shot. Let me know what you think!
Thanks so much, everyone! I'll see you all soon.
'Til then~!

LYRICS (Please do not use without my permission):
In the night, in the light, a dream within a dream,
With my eyes to the sky, I feel you staring at me…
But if I awake, I know your warmth would fade to the dark...
So I close my eyes, and keep you in my mind and my heart...
Though we try, I know I may never see you again...
Though we try, if our time spent apart will only bring us pain
Then I’ll use it to guide me toward the stars and their shine,
and finally lay to rest all my regrets forevermore.
Saccharine, bittersweet, the kingdom of our dreams...
In that place, tender fate delivered you unto me…
With a gentle kiss, you closed the desperate lips that once said
lying to yourself was fine, and brought our tale to an end...
In the light of tomorrow, I remember it all
in time to know you’re gone. Even though it only brings me pain,
I will walk down my path paved with regrets, broken trust,
and stardust, to the world you left for us, now and always...
The pain that I felt, waking up to just myself
is stronger than words can say…
We are apart, but it’s important now because
I will live for you anyway...
Though we try, I know I may never see you again…
Though we try, if our time spent together only brings us pain
Then I’ll use it to guide me through the light of stars,
and finally reach your heart. For I know no matter where you are
that we all share the same sky!
May the tears that I cry
connect us for all time!
Bathing the World in Our Light.

"I am myself! I'll never forget that again!"
Read my (Akira/Sumi) Persona 5: Royal fanfic, "Life Will Change" here!
(archiveofourown.org/works/24846847/chapters/60106123)
Finally someone says " Akira" then "Ren"
I always decided to choose akira amamiya
I just realised something. Given how your recent "life will change" ties into your fanfic, is the same true of the lyrics here, or no?
@@Sablemike38 These lyrics weren't written to tie-in to Life Will Change, but I'm happy to hear you think that way! I'll be doing more stuff like that in the future though, for sure!
@@AkaneSasuSora Since I’ve only ever heard the original version which is in Japanese is this cover essentially an English translation?Sounds awesome by the way!
Nice detail posting it on March 20, exactly the day P5 ends... and beautiful cover too! It hits so good...
When is en your birthday
My anthem for almost a year. Our Light is definitely on my mind a lot of the time and its lyrics always help me push forward even when I feel hopeless.
For me it was Colors Flying High. Although the virus came and stopped me basically. I also realized some things I just didnt like about Persona and fell out of it. Now more into SMT
Ngl, the song hits harder for me in English. Not sure if it's just me, but FUCK is this good.
Its because you can actually understand the lyrics xD
i think the key change also helps; i feel like its more emotional like this
My native language isn't english, and this song hits harder in english.
I know that the internet is not a place to speak your feelings openly, when I hear him sing, I can almost sing the same, and it reminds of my grandmother, I lost her at thirteen. I found the vocal version only first in a big time of my need. without this song sung by you, I wouldn't have been able to love myself without wasting years of my life. Thank you, Akane.
Know it’s been a year and all, but I hope it’s looking up for you.
This is wild bc I literally just finished Royal last night... What a stroke of good luck. Good work on the cover!
I just finished it today lol
I have been waiting for this since November, and it did not disappoint.
Have been playing Persona 5 Royal for three years, this song never stops hitting me hard. Helping to remind me that are others out there that suffer from the same pain day after day. Singing along with both the JP and ENG version of this song tends to fill me with happiness. In all honesty, Our Light is the most heartwarming song I've heard in my 18 years of gaming and I thank you from the bottom of my heart in making the ENG version of this already heartwarming song
Just finished playing persona 5 strikers. This song still hits me deep.
I fucking cried with both this and "towards a dream" ( Strikers credits)
@@hectorhernandezaleman3836 bro how did they make two "cry you eyes out" songs in almost the same year
@@oxymoron5651 The ATLUS guarantee!
Six months ago, when you uploaded the Acapella, I said that I would listen to this once I beat Royal. Last night, around 4am PST, I finally beat Royal's 3rd semester for the first time, after having to wait 2 months for PS4 repairs.
Hearing this song at the end of the game made me tear up, I'm not gonna lie. Having finally heard your take on the song, I can say with confidence that I prefer this version to the original. Your voice works amazingly for this song, and the lyrics hit even harder in English. Amazing work, as always, Can't wait to see what else you have in store.
Damn, this gives a different type of kick from the acapella version...
And it still has that same impact, so congratulations, this is wonderful work! ✨
I like to think that the PT sit at Leblanc and discuss how they've all been once a year on the day Akira left. I know that's cringey but I think the best ending is one where they may live further apart but still meet up where this whole story started, always friends.
I definitely think they would, but I also think Akira and Sumire would do their best to hang out with Akechi too (seeing as it's strongly hinted he's alive)
They do meet again in dancing in starlight and strikers, and in the future too.
@@nicholasvalverde1122that is correct but Strikers is only months after the events of P5/P5R right?
@@Jackattack359 Strikers was made during the same time as the development of Royal which means that they couldn't add Kasumi and Akechi. It's canon yes but to the vanilla Persona 5. I like to think that it's canon to royal but since Kasumi did leave off to do her own thing and Maruki finally let go
Yeah, it would be cool that they are in a certain "distance" living they own lifes, except for Sumire cause i really pray that she's now married with Joker.
Jesus. I don’t remember the last time a song made me cry ugly tears. Amazing job.
Idk why. But when I hear this song it reminds me so much of my mom that died last year. So much if this song just feels like trying to get over grief.
seriously....OUTSTANDING job on this song....those long notes, higher notes....oh my...."tomorrow, gone, path, world"...so emotional, and just gorgeous!
P3 Spoilers....
You know... No matter how much this applies to Persona 5 Royal, I can also see it being sung at the end of The Answer by SEES, as they mourn the protagonist's death after learning about their sacrifice to create the Seal, and swearing to live for their memory.
I was thinking the same
Especially in the case of Yukari...
Dude start the comment with "spoilers for ________“
oh no, it makes me shivering all of sudden
bruh put spoilers for persona 3
FOR REAL?!?!?
Absolutely beautiful, keep up the work my dude!!! 😁
Ahhh those higher notes hit hard 🔥🔥🔥🔥and gosshhh.... listening to this at night time here ....in a dark room with full volume with earphones plugged in ....I feel like I am in a theatre....in a different world.....different reality
Omgg....I am first for the first time on my favourite channel.....loved this song without the instrumentals and am extremely excited for this one ❤️❤️❤️
One of the best Persona covers I’ve heard, the translated lyrics are beautiful too
That art of Sumire, looking to the sky... As someone who romanced her and thinks she's just awesome, I love how much Our Light applies to her and her sister. It works for all the Phantom Thieves, who now walk toward their unknown destinies after shedding blood, sweat, and tears, but it just is so poignant with her there. Amazing cover!
I friended everyone except her on my first playthrough. I just thought she's great as the canon love interest for joker.(in my playthrough anyway)
I romanced her... Yeah...
My introduction to P5 was through Royal, I was told she was romanceable, so I friended everyone else (even Ann and Takemi, two of my favorites), just to get her.
She was so worth the wait.
I fell in love with Kasumi during the festival.
I fell in love with Sumire at Rank 6.
@@Mr-Trox Oh man, you and me both. I knew what I was getting myself into before I started Royal (as in, she's a bit more limited in terms of the romance route for various reasons) but as soon as I met her in game, I was forever charmed. She's also just awesome. Her Persona awakening had me in tears.
Goddamnit… this cover is so good..! I’m actually crying rn..! You really tore at my heartstrings..! 💔
POG! It hits different listening to a song from a premiere!
Damn... My drunk-ass just cried an effin' river, listening to that. Well done, what else to say, made me actually reflect on what the hell happened in P5R.
Well, damn. I just refreshed my recomended tab and this shows up! Talk about timing xD
The added music really changes the atmosphere a bit. Where the accapella version felt more like an elegy, there's a serenity in this one. Almost like there's hope in accepting the truth and moving on.
Wow. And on my birthday! I don't think anything else as a gift will top this masterpiece
God watching kasumi change throughout the video really hit hard for me
This made me so emotional omg wow this just-- I felt tears forming in my eyes as I listened to it and the amount of goosebumps I felt is unreal OMG this was SO GOOD I'm crying rn omg help
Same
Holy shit,
I clicked on this expecting it to be good but this blew me away.
Ive wanted to hear and English version for ages (as the direct translation of the song doesn’t really work in English) and this is everything i wanted and more, it’s beautiful
I actually teared up listening to this. Thank you so much.
Omg I’ve been wanting someone to make an English cover of this for so long!!! You did such an amazing job!
:D 🎉
time to listen to this a hundred times over the next three days 👋🙂
catch me crying over this
This is a work of art. Really well done
This is such an an amazing cover, you voice really brings out the emotion behind the song and it’s lyrics and their meaning!
Thank you so much for doing this cover, It brought back all the emotions from P5R back making me cry and get emotional, your cover transmits all the emotions that are felt towards the end of the game, I'll listen to it on repeat for a long time :) T-T
I've been waiting for this.
The accapella was already amazing, but hearing it with the instrumental is just... oh my heart 💔 it's soul crushing! Well done!
I no longer think of this song as a persona song, I only think of it as a goodbye to a loved one song
I legit JUST listened to your acapella cover yesterday again. Incredible job. ^^
IT’S HERE! WOOOOOOOO!!!
Seven minutes later and I’m in love. Seriously, great work, you’re the best. ❤️👍🏾
I ain't the type to be all emotional but damn bro, shit hits me hard
Actually thinking about these lyrics from Sumi’s perspective pulls at my heart strings so much man… truly beautiful lyrics
Oh shit its finally out LETS GOO
Absolute banger
This shown up in my recommended. It's so beautiful. Thank you so much Akane
I've probably listened to this about 100 times now. Thank you so much for making this
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE
still as amazing as the acapella one ahh
I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS LETS GOOO
Hey nice to see this finally get made. Really great stuff!!!
i’m sobbing hysterically :)
Amazing cover. You have real talent for this, dude
Got very close to the ugly cry I had when the credits rolled for completing the P5R True Ending.
Best English version cover I have heard so far. Thanks
Wonderful cover! And just in time for P5R's one year anniversary too.
This is beautiful you did a really good job.
THIS ABSOLUTELY HITS
I literally bawled my eyes out when I heard this song...I can just relate tour so much and...god damn I just love
one hell of a cover 🎉
we cryin in the club
You did this song justice- well done.
Damnnn these are really nice lyrics, and the harmonies went w i l d ❤️💖
The normal version really hits different, and *hard*. Feels like a more happy theme in a way. Honestly I got emotional. I've never listened to the original version of Our Light, so, this just feels amazing. Though I will say the accapella is somewhat better imo. :P
The best girl as the cover of this amazing song
Well She IS The Star Of Royal
This stinking game in gonna make me cry again 😭 I just finished a few days ago and cried at the end when I was saying goodbye to everyone. Very good cover! Thank you!
This song is on my tiny list of songs I sing along to, and I just imagine like an anime scenario
Hahaha same
i already love this song but this cover is so beautiful
*I was waiting for this moment*
you did a great job at this cover, and made us cry 😭💗
This is perfect
This is AWESOMEEEE!
I wish I had found this when it came out on my birthday
Amazing translation, liked it a lot
I much prefer the acapella cover since the lack of instruments makes the song feel like such a raw feeling of emotion and hits me a lot harder, but since it isn't meant to be acapella going to say that I still enjoy this, just wanted to gush over your acapella more because it hits me like a train.
Although this still hits me like a truck and I can feel the tears rising out of my eyes, fuck man. Really good work it is pushing tears out of me.
Beautiful
how amazing the lyrics is!I love this English cover very much!
I love this
Love when you raised the pitch at around 6:35. I don't think it was in the original. Awesome man.
loved the acapella, love it with all the music behind it. beautiful cover of a phenomenal song!
A Song that doesnt only sound good, but holds an even better message within itself. That is a truly admirable Song. Thank god I got to enjoy the actual lyrics.
ITS HERE
I've waited so long..

I listened to this ever snce it came out... it was rough back then but I knew one day I'd completly relate to it, and that day was two days ago, at 3:45am my dog, my best friend and savior, Yoshi passed away. We all share the same sky, rest in peace buddy.
