I love all of her songs but I'd say Honest Diary left the biggest impact on me. And then there are also some of her other older, more acoustic songs, where it's just her singing, playing the guitar, where she sings live versions on her livestreams, and they just hit on a completely different level, just because how much the focus lies on her absolutely amazing vocals, so a live performance of Water Reflection is also up there for me. So I'd say in general it's mainly songs where it's really about her going all out and focusing on her vocals, which is more the case with lots of her older songs, especially performed live a few years later where really improved with her singing.
More Minami please, she's my favorite female vocalist. Any track is fine, but maybe ”konomachi ni hare wa konai" or ”Main Actor". And from what I've seen, Minami writes most of her stuff with a guitar.
Im shouting here saying: “WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT HOW MINAMI IS HER OWN SONGWRITER! SHE BASICALLY DOES THE MUSIC, LYRICS N MUSIC ARRANGEMENTS OF HER SONGS!!” I wanted to see your reaction when you know that she did everything herself and how amazing she is! Yes she has people play each instrument but she composed it and if I am not wrong she plays bass and piano but not for this song. She was around 20-21 when she made this! Lately the newest songs has not only her but the bass guitarist arrange together. if Im not wrong she still does songwriting it all herself. Tbh I only like “hollowness” and “crying for rain” the most. her newest songs dont hit as much like those 2.
I've been waiting for so long to hear the live version of that part..and last night i got an opportunity to listen her live in KL, damn i was not disappointed..i swear it's even better in live, that high note is no joke
lets go, this song is SO underated ! 30M views isnt even enought for a talent like this, this is my fav song from her and it hit hard everytime i listen to it
Ahh I love main actor. However with minami songs I think vocals and lyrics are the best part of the music (ofc the rest is amazing too). But I think tony focuses more on the background instead of the lyrics most of the time
Yup! It’s the same artist for the Domestic Girlfriend opening, she’s one of my favorite japanese artists and I would recommend listening to a couple more of her songs like “Main Actor” or “Waiting For Rain.”
OMG YES MY FAVOURITE, THANK YOU! I even discovered her music thanks to you man 🙏. You, Minami and Zutomayo have probably been the most entertaining artists I've found this year
Its really entertaining to see your detailed breakdown and opinions bit by bit. The enjoyment you're getting out of the song as you do this is obvious and I'm glad that more people can appreciate how talented of an artist Minami is. She is criminally underrated despite all the love she gets.
Holy moly! I let my guard down for a second and almost cried. The music is great, but it's the vocals that blow me away the most. It floods with emotions like a tsunami. I absolutely love this song! Definitely one of my favourite japanese vocalist. Thanks to you I can appreciate that song even more.
Thank you for this. Minami has been my favorite artist since I first found her 4 years ago, but this reaction and analysis made me go through her songs again with a new added perspective and fall in love with all of them all over again. I'm really happy to see how much you appreciate this song, and it made me in turn appreciate all of her songs even more.
I did not expect this!! This is one of my all-time favourite songs and very deeply special to me. I was so glad to hear what you think of it and glad you've helped spread this song to a wider audience!!
this was completely unexpected, seeing this after I finish a good novel gave me so much adrenaline that I almost couldn't wait for it but it's at 2am so I will have to watch it tmr
Got lucky to hear KAWAKI WO AMEKU randomly in a video back in the beginning of January/2019, before was make the anime song (that i had no interest to watch). After that ive immediately search for more songs and completely fell in love with her music. The way she writes her lyrics and songs are already outstanding but her voice is just out of this world. I, personally, never heard anyone translate the emotions of the song with such perfection like she does. For me, is all around the most perfect MV ive ever seen. The animation, the melody, the instruments, the lyrics and her voice just makes u feel all those emotions as if u were there. Pure magic.
She is literally the most beautiful sounding female vocal I ever heard... The fact she is not well known everywhere outside the anime community is just a crime against art and humanity...
Damn the uploads have been rather fast and all the songs are my favs. First Ode to azdaha then rage beneath the mountains and now Hollowness by Minami. Loved your reactions. Looking forward to future reactions😁
OK. Let's gooo. I remember requesting this song a couple of days ago and seeing this vid just made my day. This song is so underrated and it deserves as much love as crying for rain, or maybe even more. I do have another request. Can you react to all the Banana Fish openings and endings? They are so good and extremely underrated. You're definitely gonna love them
Yess, Minami is def my favorite female artist. If you want to check out any others, some of my favorites you have't covered are 'Main Actor', and 'Waiting for Rain'
Minami and ReoNa are two newest and wonderful Japanese singer that I love so much. They will shine more. ReoNa doing great and will do better. Minami on the other hand uploading new musics every 3-4 months and I like them so much but people still don't know her enough. I hope minami will also Shine as bright as ReoNa
That is one long song, longer than usual it seems, but full of lots of interesting flavors. One of my favorites is the timing chnges and the tempo changes. Hearing this performed fully live would be something indeed!
I must say really in-depth reaction (some thing you pointed out I hadnt really noticed like the guitar in the background almost sounding like a chorus) also combined with some normal "human" reactions (which are usually missing from musicians reacting) and all that for one of my favourite songs. This song is too unknown and you have my "like and subscribe"! There are also layers of meaning in this song in the lyrics and the visuals. This song alone also deserves a story analysis. Mostly at the end, begging to try one more time and then the voices in the background with her other self and in the end trying to strangle in the end strangling her own self. My god is this song powerful.
Glad you're finally getting into other JP songs/artists! (I have some playlists of JP songs! So feel free to check them out and listen to some of them.)
Can you react "SawanoHiroyuki[nZk] · mizuki - aLIEz" ? Sawano hiroyuki is same composer as Attack on Titan soundtracks, 86 soundtracks, guilty crown soundtracks etc. i think you should check
I charted this song for drums solely for the reason I wanted to chart 12:20-12:25 when the drums turn into a completely different rhythm for only 2 bars, I thought that was so cool
⏩ Video Question: What is your favorite Minami song???
For live content catch me on Twitch. www.twitch.tv/drumrolltony
My fav is "Waiting for Rain". The last one released "Good Lucker" is awfully dope as well
My favorite is Lilac and Drop for sure, the lyric is very deep
waiting for rain for me
Def Honest Diary
I love all of her songs but I'd say Honest Diary left the biggest impact on me.

Minami's vocals really pack a punch all the time. Her own voice and how she uses it is just so damn good and filled with emotion
The way she uses her breath like a guitar scratch is always so good
Yes! I can't even try and come near that, and I've tried so many times!!
Minami’s voice is insanely good
Yes finally a Minami song
Crying for Rain was in the Multi Anime Openings 2 video
Minami the goat
I thought you typed in Miami there for a second
@@Cellyestial true
pls do minami - ame wo matsu reaction
YESSS dude. Minami is straight up one of my favorite artists, so many good songs
It's cool like for,i dunno,13 y/o emo girls

You forgot DROP my man
DROP, Lilac and Main Actor are a must
Lilac is also a certified banger
I'm commander Shepard, and minami is my favorite vocalist.
Y'all listen to the good shit
Im shouting here saying: “WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT HOW MINAMI IS HER OWN SONGWRITER! SHE BASICALLY DOES THE MUSIC, LYRICS N MUSIC ARRANGEMENTS OF HER SONGS!!”

12:36 that chill you get up your spine? Yeah, every god damn time. Minami is an absolute genius in hitting you in the feels with her voice
That entire section at the end just gets me every. damn. time.
I've been waiting for so long to hear the live version of that part..and last night i got an opportunity to listen her live in KL, damn i was not disappointed..i swear it's even better in live, that high note is no joke

The ending gives me goosebumps no matter how many times I see it I swear
@@Sckeza same fr her voice is incredible
@@ImaLk64 how much can she get higher holy sht
Minami’s “Waiting for the Rain” is also phenomenal
@@schlemmes i believe he reacted to crying for rain and not waiting for rain
@@schlemmes false.
Yes! More Minami. She is the literal definition of an artist who only releases bangers
This is my favourite Minami song! I just love how passionate she sounds in all her music
Yes! Sadly there is not enough content from Minami on TH-cam, i love her voice and all stuff she makes.
Great reaction, i loved it!
Haven't heard this song before, that ending gave me chills for a second, just wow.
Minami is easily one of the most talented singer/song writers around. Great to see you react to her.
FINALLY !!
Dude I really want you to react to ALL of her songs,
Especially Lilac, Waiting for rain and Main Actor.
They are straight up bangers!
Ahh I love main actor. However with minami songs I think vocals and lyrics are the best part of the music (ofc the rest is amazing too). But I think tony focuses more on the background instead of the lyrics most of the time
I love DROP, Waiting for rain, Main Actor, Hollowness, just their whole discography is genuinely mind-blowing to me.
After Hollowness, Lilac is my personal favourite, followed by recent drop and even recent blue grass
Minami is such an underrated singer and a big thumps up to the guy who recommended tony this song.
Thanks man :)
yeah she is still so underrated outside of japan :/
Yup! It’s the same artist for the Domestic Girlfriend opening, she’s one of my favorite japanese artists and I would recommend listening to a couple more of her songs like “Main Actor” or “Waiting For Rain.”
See her yesterday in Osaka, it was an incredible show, the musicians are very very talented.
Any footage?
@@Kn0wyourse1f i seen her 4 times, your not allowed to record for her concerts
brother!
Glad you really appreciated this song for what it is, great input and breakdown. I'm blown away by the emotion Minami delivers in her vocals.
minami es por mucho de las mejores voces que he escuchado y elegiste una excelente canción, muy bueno tu video y análisis
OMG, I'm very excited for this
this one took me out at the end
OMG YES MY FAVOURITE, THANK YOU! I even discovered her music thanks to you man 🙏. You, Minami and Zutomayo have probably been the most entertaining artists I've found this year

This is the exact song I would pick. Great choice, Joseph Kautz!
Fr I wanna give Joseph a big fat hug

Definitely one of my favourite japanese vocalist. Thanks to you I can appreciate that song even more.
Minami's uniqueness and skill for singing is the reason why I loved her so much
Thank you for this. Minami has been my favorite artist since I first found her 4 years ago, but this reaction and analysis made me go through her songs again with a new added perspective and fall in love with all of them all over again. I'm really happy to see how much you appreciate this song, and it made me in turn appreciate all of her songs even more.
This girl has an amazing voice.
Watching this reaction for the 20th time now, thank you for introducing me to my favourite song

Shout-out to our man, patreon member Joseph Kautz for suggesting this gem 🙏😭
I always love watching your video because you always point out some things that i always didn't notice and make me listen to music in different way
More Minami! I love that the ending you just let it roll and never once thought about stopping it... Just enjoyed it.
I did not expect this!! This is one of my all-time favourite songs and very deeply special to me. I was so glad to hear what you think of it and glad you've helped spread this song to a wider audience!!
this was completely unexpected, seeing this after I finish a good novel gave me so much adrenaline that I almost couldn't wait for it but it's at 2am so I will have to watch it tmr
dudeeee minami is my favorite singer,His voice is spectacular full of emotions
and the band behind it are geniuses
I've been waiting for it, and finally there it is
Thanks so much for reacting! Loved hearing the breakdown on the song. Keep up the great work
Was this your pick? Loved it!
man you're the goat for suggesting this song, one of my favorite songs ever
One of the best music in this universe totally, I really love Minami and everything she does :)
The way she sings the lyrics on this song with emotion in it is just beautiful.
Got lucky to hear KAWAKI WO AMEKU randomly in a video back in the beginning of January/2019, before was make the anime song (that i had no interest to watch). After that ive immediately search for more songs and completely fell in love with her music.

この方初めて見たけど選曲のセンスがめちゃくちゃ良いな！！
13:05 I've listened to this song maybe 200 times over the years. That's my reaction to that part every single time.
She is literally the most beautiful sounding female vocal I ever heard... The fact she is not well known everywhere outside the anime community is just a crime against art and humanity...
My god her vocal was Insane 🔥
another beautiful song from minami is "lilac" if you are interested in looking at more of her music
Man channels like make me want to learn more about music theory, thanks so much for all of your uploads
Minami is soooo underated! I really like her songs. If you like Minami's voice, I'm sure you'll love ADO
Minami is my favorite JP artist so I'm always down to hear more from her.
Every time I listen to this I’m just blown out of my mind. The lyrics are so powerful too.
Damn the uploads have been rather fast and all the songs are my favs.
First Ode to azdaha then rage beneath the mountains and now Hollowness by Minami. Loved your reactions.
Looking forward to future reactions😁
minami is so talented and skilled, all her songs are simply amazing
Damn, the end made me tear up
OK. Let's gooo. I remember requesting this song a couple of days ago and seeing this vid just made my day. This song is so underrated and it deserves as much love as crying for rain, or maybe even more.
I do have another request. Can you react to all the Banana Fish openings and endings? They are so good and extremely underrated. You're definitely gonna love them
i love this song, i ended crying 4real watching the video
yessss i love who ever suggested this i freaking love this song
I love this song very much and the song "Eternal Blue" is also very good, I recommend it, it's Minami's work
hollowness reaction lezzgooo! I hope you read the lyrics as well!
Can I just say that I absolutely loved how you didn't rewind or talk over the ending even after it stopped?
AHH, thoroughly enjoyed this video! Keep it up, glad you were able to hear another great piece from Minami.
Yess, Minami is def my favorite female artist. If you want to check out any others, some of my favorites you have't covered are 'Main Actor', and 'Waiting for Rain'
DROP, eternal blue and kono machi ni hare wa konai are some of my favorite songs from Minami, yet hollowness holds a special space in my heart
One of those songs where you can find something new each time you hear it
You should react to main actor from minami too. It's such an emotional and beautiful song. It's My favorite song from her
i don't think its possible to not get a chill or a tear on that last scream. No amount of practice or planning can replicate true emotion.
I like how in the intro you were already able to pick up the initial key or pattern they'll be using for the entire song.
Even just "la la la la"
Her emotions...delivered
The emotions minami can bring through their music are huge
Minami and ReoNa are two newest and wonderful Japanese singer that I love so much. They will shine more. ReoNa doing great and will do better. Minami on the other hand uploading new musics every 3-4 months and I like them so much but people still don't know her enough. I hope minami will also Shine as bright as ReoNa
YESS Minami! You should react to more Japanese Artists!
FUCK YEAH I BEEN WAITING FOR THIS EVER SINCE YOU FIRST LISTENED TO MINAMI
when I listened to this for the first time, I got chills al over my body
Damn. This song was really powerful from imagery to music
Very powerful and emotional voice, great song!
Minami is ridiculously good, the songs are fantastic.
Also your Channel let me appreciate music even more, thank you
I'm a simple man, I see Minami I like the video
That is one long song, longer than usual it seems, but full of lots of interesting flavors. One of my favorites is the timing chnges and the tempo changes. Hearing this performed fully live would be something indeed!

NO WAY I was so hoping you'd do this song, probably my all time favourite!
「a i u e」 Minami’s voice is so great ! It’s Urusei Yatsura OP
I hope you’ll react full ver !
I just love all minami song her lyrics are so good and rhythmic.
Glad you're finally getting into other JP songs/artists!
(I have some playlists of JP songs! So feel free to check them out and listen to some of them.)
YESSS Minami song!!!!! Pls check out other of her songs too!
still wishing for him to react to main actor, my favorite minami song and maybe my favorite japanese song honestly
Ado got the success I expected Minami to get... Thank you so much for giving Minami a shot! Loved the reaction!!!! I also got to learn much stuff!!!
12:39 My feeling exactly, who doesn't get chills hearing this part??
LES goooo never knew you reactived to this
This is my favorite song from my favorite japanese female vocalist
...♠️373♠️...
Thanks for that react!!👊
Minami one of the favorite japanese artists.
Minami goated hope to see more from her
Can you react "SawanoHiroyuki[nZk] · mizuki - aLIEz" ?
Sawano hiroyuki is same composer as Attack on Titan soundtracks, 86 soundtracks, guilty crown soundtracks etc. i think you should check
Yooooooooo.... Finally you're back to Minami.
The music alone Made me cry so much this song is so sad and so beautiful
Joseph the goat🙏🔥🔥
She's so great, my favorite is clearly mean Actor
Hollowness is a song that just.....
Makes me feel things even if I have to read the Lyrics.
I charted this song for drums solely for the reason I wanted to chart 12:20-12:25 when the drums turn into a completely different rhythm for only 2 bars, I thought that was so cool
Gonna see her in Okinawa Super Excited
How come this song is relatable.
