This is the third and final one of my Violet Evergarden Piano Arrangements! Michishirube, Sincerely and WILL - they all belong to my "special-type" arrangements because they all tell a special story in the music! I hope you enjoyed listening to them as much as I have enjoyed creating them! This upload also marks the end of the Anime Movie Piano Series I have been uploading since this year 2021. I hope you have enjoyed the uploads and were able to relive your favorite Anime Movie moments again! Starting next upload, I will upload "regular" anime songs again. Thank you for your support this year! - Animenz
I would honestly be very happy if you upload just even one original song or some Non anime song. If talking about non anime song then I would love to see something from YOASOBI
Today, 18 July - 2021, 2nd anniversary of the horrifying KyoAni fire, may the people who lost their lives rest at peace and may their families and loved ones find peace as well.
I'm so glad that KyoAni is getting back on it's feet. While it will never be the same, I'm glad they are continuing to move forward and do their best with the situation regardless.
@@trackernivrig i cant even believe they can recover from that especially after loosing 36 of their staff to the fire. But Im glad they are pushing forward.
You can just tell how much violet wanted to say i love you and how much he meant to her. All she could say was 'I' and 'major', the first words she uttered as a child. Such raw emotions. Someone who was raised as a tool, can cry so genuinely. The major who never cries in front of anyone else, broke down infront of the one he loves. (Spoilers as i go deep into their philosophy) He felt guilty, he felt undeserving of even touching her, consoling her after what he felt he forced her to go through. He couldn't protect her, he caused her to lose her arms, he couldn't give her a happy childhood she deserves but in the end, he still loves her. He couldn't stand being separated from her for even a second longer, not being with her as she goes through life. He was afraid of what might happen to her and can't stand the thought of her suffering on his behalf. All he needed was an answer, he needs to know how she feels no matter love or not and then he could die happily knowing she has matured. Thankfully, it was a happy reunion. She was saved by him. Brought out of abuse, given a purpose and someone to protect. At first, he thought it was for protection but eventually both reliased it was out of love. She loved him ever since they first hugged, he was the first light to her ever perpetual darkness. She would do anything to protect him. He is her first and only true romantic love she ever develops. No matter who else tried to charm her, she wouldn't allow it because the one she loves was always around her neck. Spoilers. They eventually vow to be together forever and never leave each other side. They affirmed that they are the only one for one another and sealed the deal with a kiss. Both are disable. One lost both arms, one lost an arm and an eye. But if you asked them, they said it was all worth it as their impact on one another was priceless. They would do it again in a heartbeat. Since childhood, he has a fear of loneliness. But now he has reunited with the one he loves and the same goes for her. If there is another season, it would dive into their respective insecurities as they have to spend time apart due to their respective jobs. Finally vented. 😞 Thank you for such a well crafted story. My heart is still recovering from reading the novel but remember, the author in the epilogue says, no matter what you are going through, violet will be waiting for you. No matter the place, time or situation. She is truly a masterpiece and extremely precious.
@@taehyungsabandonedshoes7625 There's not really a official english 'novel' persay but someone took the liberty of translating the Japanese novel and put it up on tumblur. Of course do support the official release when it comes out, they do deserve it afterall. Anyways just a snippet and summary of the parts of the VA novel i immensely enjoyed. Everyone should definitely read violet evergarden ever after, volume 4 and 5 aka the ending. Future spoilers be warned and yes violet is of age. In short, major and violet exchanged a series of letters. They want to spend more time together but can't because of their respective jobs. Yes they both love each other now. Violet starts to become insecure and her only source of comfort was his letters during the abysmal time. She had a nightmare where she was left alone and defenceless. She is afraid for him, afraid that she isn't good enough, her robotic hands might scare others, his family might never accept her but in the end she still loves him. She finally says its because she was scared to get it taken away or rejected. Everyone in her life could disappear, but not him. She couldn't lose him ever again. If he did, she would had wanted to join him but couldn't because he told her to live. Really love her last letter to him before the volume ends, most heartwarming, gutwreching read though ever. She professed everything to him. How she loved him before he even said it himself. How he is the only thing she ever thinks about when she is lonely. How he is her pillar of strength. How she will continue living just for him not as a tool but as another person. She doesn't want him to hate her and asked for permission to be with him forever and have a family with him. She compared it to how in the battlefield she never felt fear or pain but once she became human, a second apart from him causes immense pain and continously asking him what is wrong with her. All of the scars incurred, lost limbs, physical pain is nothing compared to the emotional pain she was feeling at that moment. She knew it was her own feelings that was hurting her and she confessed everything. There was no way i brought justice to what i just typed, the real one is just that good and i cut out many parts and didn't even mentioned the major's part. And Yesss i reiterate once again, they finally kissed at the end!!! They even said those magic words and reiterated that they can only be for one another and even promised to have a family together. Thank for such a good read and bringing a roller coaster of emotions. Really love the character development and progression. Someone devoid of emotions becomes the realest person with actual authentic feelings i ever seen. Initially, She can't voice her real feelings but her writing is the best i ever read. She can be formal, yet she can also be genuine. Someone who was once straightforward and clueless became a famous amanuensis. Just look at her from the first letter she wrote and the current her is the biggest juxtaposition i ever seen. Can't believe i read it all in the span of a few days, and not get bored, truly is a special novel. In the last novel, they said they love each other the most and can lose everything else except for one another. For new fans the watch order there isn't much difference if you want to hop into the books. 1st Watch Violet Evergarden the anime ep 1-13, then the first movie and then the 2020 movie. Grab some tissues as well. For the light novel the latest movie is taking the notes of Volume 2 Chapter 13. Violet Evergarden has 4 volumes. Volume 1 Chapter 1-6 Volume 2 Chapter 7-13 Volume 3 Gaiden 1-6 Volume 4 Violet evergarden ever after 1-5 Volume 1, the anime didn't cover 2 chapter due to its limited runtime of 13 episode. Volume 2, the anime changed the outcome. The major and violet are suppose to meet earlier but it was delayed in the movie. So the second anime movie is completely anime canon only. But the dialogues remains exactly the same. Chapter 13 they vow to love one another. Gaiden is mostly about backstories of characters and their past. Violet becomes scared to lose the major again as they can't meet each other as they return to their jobs. Violet is still writing, Major returns to the military so as to get promoted so he can veto any orders that forces Violet in any danger. But to get promoted he has to sacrifice alot of time and do alot of things. Volume 4 chapter 4 and 5 is a masterpiece. They wrote letters to one another, saying they are each other pillar of strength. Violet feels like she was an embarrassment to him, the major felt guilty that she feels so, and left to meet her to clear it up. She says and writes i love you to him for the first time. Saying that she loved him even before he said it.
@@Animenzzz Thank you! I've added more of my feelings of the masterpiece into words in the reply section though they do evolve further spoiler so do be careful if you decide to read further!
@@methangelx Your welcome 😇 Yt doesn't seem to allow me to share the link since it keeps deleting my reply but if possible, the fan translation is by dennou-translations! A simple search online should be sufficient.
Kyoani taught me that no letter that could be sent deserves to go undelivered. They taught me that life is about having fun, and not to take any small moment for granted. They've shown me the importance of family, despite the differences you share. They've shown me the shape of voice, and the impact yours can have on another's life. They've created a great big Dango family, one that will always be together. I hope the lives lost can rest easier knowing that their works have helped and saved millions around the world. May those creative souls live on through the passions they brought to life. I love Kyoani.
TRUE's vocals hit different than most singers, and your playing also hits different than most pianists. Thank you for this surprise gift in the afternoon!
The ending hit really hard, violet evergaden is the only anime that made me cry !! This peice has a lot of emotions in it , thanks a lot for always making us remember those warm moments !!
Not gonna lie, I cried at least in two different scenes while watching the Violet Evergarden movie in the cinema. I am weak to emotional stories after all, haha
@@zitingwang1352 done watched before this. have u try out violet evergarden? very emotional yet peaceful storyline. underrated movie since not everyone watch the series
Yet another beautiful Violet Evergarden arrangement. This man keeps blessing us with the best soundtracks. Listening to this piece invokes a feeling of relaxing in a field on a peaceful spring day. The silky tone of the Steinway blended with the smooth scale runs and bell tones ringing out in the mid-high register reinforce this vibe. Yet, underneath the triumphant celebratory color of the piece, there is an undertone of longing. I have yet to watch the movie, but I can already feel how emotional the story is through the music. My personal favorite moments: -1:03 the soft intro crescendoing into the first chorus -1:39 subtle yet smooth key change -1:42 the easing into of the rolling arpeggios to start off the second verse, and the beautiful melody line -2:38 the power of the second chorus, with the resonant mid-register bell tones at 2:44 -3:00 surprising change of groove to start off the bridge -3:21 the lovely deep BASS resonance that serves as the foundation of the three hand melody section -4:03 beautiful crossing harmonies -4:23 absolutely lovely sparkling high register intro into the final chorus -5:33 crescendo from the supposed soft outro into a majestic ending Beautiful arrangement as always :) I noticed this week's upload did not have a premiere - is this a one-time change, or are you returning to the classic upload style again?
My personal favorite part is also 4:23 with the heaven-like sound. Perhaps the "softest" chorus variation I have ever created, haha. I hope the movie air soon in your country so you can watch it! Definitely worth watching
Pray for KyoAni. I'm kind of a glad this video came as a "surprise". Another amazing emotional arrangement from Violet Evergarden. Im also really liking your lightning change it makes me feel somehow nostalgic :)
My current piano setup is partially inspired by the lighting system of a live music performance. It can contribute a lot to the atmosphere of the music if done well.
劇場版ヴァイオレットエヴァーガーデンを見て私はとても泣きました！ すごいいいお話でした！こんな素晴らしい話を作った京都アニメーションに感謝しかありません！ I cried very much when I saw the movie version of Violet Evergarden! It was a great story! I'm just grateful to Kyoto Animation for making such a wonderful story!
After Sincerely, here comes WILL. Darkest day of KyoAni, but light up with Animenz's arrangement. Both were perfectly done. Thank you Animenz! #PrayforKyoAni
This is one of my favorite Animenz peices of all time, not the most difficult or impressive, but you can feel the emotion from every note. Sorry about your mom, I wish I had someone to watch anime with.
The entire Violet Evergarden experience was really such a magical journey. So many great chilling moments during the latest movie. Thank you for carrying the emotions from the original songs of Violet Evergarden onto the piano. And thank you Kyoto Animation.
Wow wow! This whole performance is just mesmerising! As a piano music lover myself (making piano cover too), I find this playing and arrangement is genuinely beautiful. My apology for not knowing about this piece, but from your playing, I am falling in love with this music and the tune. I like how you play the music, making dynamic changes, which totally led me to different dimensions. I can totally feel the emotional part and sensing the depth of music. The sort, gentle and mellow part, I can sense the gentle touch from your playing, however, the richer part, I can feel that my soul being moved along with your playing. Very Very Kudos! This channel has me subscribed and notification bell turned on. I was just a passer by from this channel, BUT! Now I chose to stay! Can't wait for more covers from your channel. Side note, I LOVEEE the video setting. It's so soothing to look at. 😊 Love from Malaysia 🇲🇾
Thank you for subscribing! I am glad my piano arrangement is able to leave a good impression to you, even if you have never heard the original song before. Welcome to my channel, fellow pianist! I hope you will enjoy my future uploads as well
If you're reading this Animenz, I just wanted to thank you for pushing me to be the best piano player I can be. I've wanted to play your piano arrangements for the longest time, and after lots of hard work and dedication, I've learned your old Swordland, old This Game, and am currently (attempting to) learn Unravel. Your music and piano in general has been one of the few things keeping me sane while staying at home this past year. Thank you for inspiring me and here's to many more amazing covers!
Honestly wow, you absolutely killed it, you completely captured all the emotion of Violet Evergarden. The Masterpiece of our time and KyoAni's Love letter to their fans.
I've watched this almost every day since finishing the movie a week ago and today I started crying within the first 20 seconds. Such a masterpiece in character writing, and a legendary arrangement as always
A beautiful arrangement, dedicated on the second anniversary of the tragedy. I'm glad you uploaded this! Can't believe it's been two years since that fateful day, but Kyoani has made a big return this season with Kobayashi S2! Thank you as always for putting in this work to create such fantastic arrangements :)
rest in peace those from KyoAni. To each and every one, thank you for the work you did. I cant help but feel slightly over-emotional as i sit here listening to this tremendous arrangement. So many emotions and feelings poured into a piano and out through our ears. A beautiful and touching tribute this is indeed.
Amazing cover for an amazing song! This sent me right back to when I was watching the credits roll in the theater, silently thanking the people involved for animating Violet’s journey to its conclusion. I especially loved the section at 1:42, the fluid left hand run and the controlled right hand melodies just nailed the instrumental. Thanks for this performance and keep up the great work!
Like Violet Evergarden, this arrangement is a masterpiece! You have no idea how much I cried while watching this movie. I didn't expect it will make me cry more than Clannad and A Place Further Than the Universe.
I commented the same 1 minute ago! I feel you! Everyone shares the same feelings for this movie! I cried for 4 days straight and had to think about my life. Violet Evergarden is at least on the same level as Clannad! Kyoto Animation truly knows how to touch our soul!
@@TH-camr_YusukeFromGermany Oh! Definitely! This is what I truly like about anime. It makes you take a step back and rethink about your life. Violet's character development is so well done. You can notice it by each letter she writes. The last letter in the movie struck me into tears. It's the essence of what "I love you" really means.
Dear Kyoani, Thank you for all your hard works for creating many unbelivably amazing animes like Violet Evergarden, K-on, Hibike! euphonium and more. May KyoAni live till the world says so. *Sincerely*, your audience...around the world
It's been a week since I come here over and over again to listen to this. It's different to watch/listen from Animenz TH-cam channel. This music give so much peace and is full of emotion. Just close your eyes,listen and you'll already forget that you've weariness.
Man Violet Evergarden hits like a truck out of nowhere. Sidenote i just finished Vivy and it has so many great soundtrack, like a blend of Guilty Crown in term of tragic and Violet in terms of self discovery. I think it would suit your taste very much so. Amazing piece, even if i can't tell a difference from Sol to La XD
Today, 2 years ago, on July 18th 2019, Is when the arsonist attack, on Kyoto Animations happened, To honor the 36 live lost that day: *Salutes*. I'm currently watching Violet Evergarden for the first time right now... (I had it planned). The Kyoani fire was 2 years ago today, and it was not too long ago that I learned that, it was just a coincidence that I was watching Violet evergarden.
Finally watched the movie today, and really I have no words that can describe the movie so perhaps I need a doll to write them out for me.... though put simply, I LOVE YOU KyoAni, and you Animenz for this beautiful arrangement!
its so full of emotions that i am getting goose bumps for a whole 6 minutes!! almost cried, but in the end, it is a breath taking experience. it is indeed the final piece. RIP for KyoAni, may they be rest in peace.
And with the Netflix and Bluray version of the movie coming next month, many will finally be able to watch the final instalment of this beautiful series. Thank you Animenz
Sudden upload at 1 AM? No complain :P Nice job as always man~ my favorite part is definitely 3:21-3:44 followed by the soft section at 3:51, I just love the right hand ornament and multi voicing :D great job!
No one really managed to appreciate the scenes of this movie because everyone was emotionally distressed and crying, literally the best animated and illustrated shots are in this film.
It feels like lying in a serene ocean when listening this heavenly melody. Such a beautiful music! This can, certainly, console those who suffer grief.
Thank you for playing this song. Rest in peace, to the generous people of Kyoto animation who dedicated their lives to bringing gracious animation to anime fans, you will never be forgotten. The beautiful stories you created will live on and on, and will surely carry on your legacies. Violet Evergarden was one of their masterpieces, and I hope to be able to watch it one day 😭 beautiful piece once again this week
Now that you mention 3:49 is the main theme of Violet Evergarden.. it has similar melodies to "Dear Violet" which performed by Yui Ishikawa (seiyuu of Violet Evergarden) from album Letters and Doll ～Looking back on the memories of Violet Evergarden～
Ever since you made the community post about you watching the movie, I've been eagerly anticipating this arrangement. And boy are my ears blessed. Thank you for the surprise :)
Something about this hits different, such a beautiful and meaningful piece played elegantly and smoothly. An extravagant and amazing anime which already makes tears trickle down your eye. Thank you animenz for all of your covers!!!
I’m glad I was able to watch Violet Evergarden The Movie today i.e the 2nd anniversary of KyoAni attack. I’m happy about how they drew out the ending for Violet Evergarden. Have to compliment all the people who worked on it, they delivered a great animation. Kyoto Animation studio is a treasure.
Oh wow How I’m glad to have waited until now to watch this video. I watched the movie last night, and wow, just wow.. you truly are the king of anime music on the piano. Thank you for delivering such amazing works video after video, this was wonderful, I could feel every bit of the movie through this video.
I need to watch the movie ahhh this song is way too beautiful and TRUE sings it so well. Beautiful playing as always, my heart goes out to everyone who has lost a loved one two years ago. I am glad kyoani has bounced back. ❤️
OH daaamn! first time i hearing this song, still havent watched the movie, i will do it when i get the chance. Amazing arrangement animenz! I rly like that you kept it simple for the most part, simple is sometimes better and gives more feels in my opinion. Great stuff! looking forward to your next arrangement! Have a nice day :)
Fun fact: there was a three hand technique version for the intro part and first verse but I decided against it because simplicity can also shine on its own if used for the right song. Simple is really the best sometimes!
5:45 is basically the spiritual successor of the ending part of Sincerey - it is playing the same melody (the Violet Evergarden main theme) but this time, with more confidence and optimism!
I listened to this song "WILL" every day since premiere. The piano arrangement always touches me to recall the movie plot of "Violet Evergarden". My heart is full of turbulent emotions, but I can't say anything. Every time I listen to it, I couldn't stop my tears. 帰ろうか 帰ろうよ 舍て去るものなんてない 喜び 悲しみ 全てに たゆたい The lyrics of "WILL" describe Violet’s mood , and it can also be regarded as the mood of being fans of Kyoto Animetion. Two years have passed, “welcome back!” ただ ただ ただ あなたと 生きていく I’ll keep on living together with you. At the end of this story, under the stars, Violet finally embraced her happy ending. Kyoto Animation has started a new journey with the blessings of everyone. And all fans will support and accompany them to work hard together! Thank you for telling this unforgettable story with touching notes. It fully feels the hopeful expectation. The bright and warm color, like the wind blowing from the sea, so refreshing and vast….
Gotta say, this is probably your best recorded video, aside from the amazing arrangement, the motion and video quality surpasses every other videos. Even your 2020 steins gate op which I regarded as your best recorded video ever.
I love this song. I listen to it constantly. So it was a welcome suprise when I found your arrangement instead of the official song on my recommended feed.
And yet another year has passed... time sure seems to fly these days, still feels like yesterday when you upload Sincerely... This is such a beautiful and powerful arrangement
I usually rewatch the complete Anime before I go to the cinema to watch a movie version of said Anime. A memory refresher to understand the whole plot of the movie better, haha
I love your piano arrangement.My life starts with your upload on Sunday.And on weekends, I play your arrangements on the piano.Of course very difficult.But I want to hear your arrangements and practice. Your wonderful arrangements always make us happy.✨May you have a lot of happiness.✨ 表現が間違っていたら、ごめんなさい😅
I really want to listen to this because I always listen to Animenz uploads. It's been four days since its release and it's teasing me every time it pops up in my recommendation. But I want to watch the movie first so I have an emotional attachment to this song that I know I will. I LOVE Animenz's arrangements and I know it'll be great regardless, but I want the context of the song too. I couldn't watch it at the cinemas because they were airing it at an inconvenient time and it was only for one day :(. The pain T-T I WILL listen to this piece once I've watched the movie. I'm so keen for both!
I still constantly listen to your arrangement of Sincerely, which you dedicated to KyoAni. It hits me deep every time, as this arrangement is hitting me now. What’s funny is that I have plans to watch the Violet Evergarden movie in 30 mins - a plan made last week. I look forward to seeing the movie soon. As usual, thank you for posting this and again acknowledging the tragic fire.
can you do the arrangement for [crying for rain] by Minami (OP Domestic Girlfriend)? this song is just crazy and i just want to hear your piano version for this masterpiece. who has the same thought like me? 👇
FINALLY. I'LL WAIT NO MATTER HOW LONG. I LOVE DOMEKANO ESPECIALLY THE MANGA NOT JUST THE OP. LOOKING FORWARD TO IT. I REALLY LOVE YOUR ARRANGEMENTS EVEN THOUGH I DON'T PLAY PIANO.
I've finally watched The Movie in Netflix, and now I can also enjoy yohr arrangement. I hope I practice enough to once learn your sheets. You're incredible!

Racing into the night please
I would honestly be very happy if you upload just even one original song or some Non anime song. If talking about non anime song then I would love to see something from YOASOBI
You are the best pianist I've ever seen, I'm sure you work hard in your videos for the people.
Thank you for your hard work 😁😁
It would be awesome if you could do the ost from yosuga no sora
The name: toui sora he
This is such a beautiful soundtrack. Rest In Peace to the lives lost in the KyoAni incident. We will never forget their hard work.
What are you doing here again >
Second to the man! *_* Hello and Rip Kyoani
It's the first time I hear about this and it makes me really sad :(( RIP
I found youuuu
Can we be friends
Today, 18 July - 2021, 2nd anniversary of the horrifying KyoAni fire, may the people who lost their lives rest at peace and may their families and loved ones find peace as well.

You can just tell how much violet wanted to say i love you and how much he meant to her. All she could say was 'I' and 'major', the first words she uttered as a child. Such raw emotions. Someone who was raised as a tool, can cry so genuinely. The major who never cries in front of anyone else, broke down infront of the one he loves.
(Spoilers as i go deep into their philosophy)
He felt guilty, he felt undeserving of even touching her, consoling her after what he felt he forced her to go through. He couldn't protect her, he caused her to lose her arms, he couldn't give her a happy childhood she deserves but in the end, he still loves her. He couldn't stand being separated from her for even a second longer, not being with her as she goes through life.

One lost both arms, one lost an arm and an eye. But if you asked them, they said it was all worth it as their impact on one another was priceless. They would do it again in a heartbeat.

Hey can you please share the link of the novel pls? You can delete it later after I confirm that I saved it .
@@taehyungsabandonedshoes7625 There's not really a official english 'novel' persay but someone took the liberty of translating the Japanese novel and put it up on tumblur. Of course do support the official release when it comes out, they do deserve it afterall.
Anyways just a snippet and summary of the parts of the VA novel i immensely enjoyed.
Everyone should definitely read violet evergarden ever after, volume 4 and 5 aka the ending. Future spoilers be warned and yes violet is of age.
In short, major and violet exchanged a series of letters. They want to spend more time together but can't because of their respective jobs. Yes they both love each other now. Violet starts to become insecure and her only source of comfort was his letters during the abysmal time. She had a nightmare where she was left alone and defenceless.
She is afraid for him, afraid that she isn't good enough, her robotic hands might scare others, his family might never accept her but in the end she still loves him. She finally says its because she was scared to get it taken away or rejected. Everyone in her life could disappear, but not him. She couldn't lose him ever again. If he did, she would had wanted to join him but couldn't because he told her to live.
Really love her last letter to him before the volume ends, most heartwarming, gutwreching read though ever. She professed everything to him. How she loved him before he even said it himself. How he is the only thing she ever thinks about when she is lonely. How he is her pillar of strength. How she will continue living just for him not as a tool but as another person. She doesn't want him to hate her and asked for permission to be with him forever and have a family with him.
She compared it to how in the battlefield she never felt fear or pain but once she became human, a second apart from him causes immense pain and continously asking him what is wrong with her. All of the scars incurred, lost limbs, physical pain is nothing compared to the emotional pain she was feeling at that moment. She knew it was her own feelings that was hurting her and she confessed everything.
There was no way i brought justice to what i just typed, the real one is just that good and i cut out many parts and didn't even mentioned the major's part.
And Yesss i reiterate once again, they finally kissed at the end!!! They even said those magic words and reiterated that they can only be for one another and even promised to have a family together. Thank for such a good read and bringing a roller coaster of emotions.
Really love the character development and progression. Someone devoid of emotions becomes the realest person with actual authentic feelings i ever seen. Initially, She can't voice her real feelings but her writing is the best i ever read. She can be formal, yet she can also be genuine. Someone who was once straightforward and clueless became a famous amanuensis.
Just look at her from the first letter she wrote and the current her is the biggest juxtaposition i ever seen. Can't believe i read it all in the span of a few days, and not get bored, truly is a special novel.
In the last novel, they said they love each other the most and can lose everything else except for one another.

Gaiden is mostly about backstories of characters and their past. Violet becomes scared to lose the major again as they can't meet each other as they return to their jobs. Violet is still writing, Major returns to the military so as to get promoted so he can veto any orders that forces Violet in any danger. But to get promoted he has to sacrifice alot of time and do alot of things.
Volume 4 chapter 4 and 5 is a masterpiece. They wrote letters to one another, saying they are each other pillar of strength. Violet feels like she was an embarrassment to him, the major felt guilty that she feels so, and left to meet her to clear it up. She says and writes i love you to him for the first time. Saying that she loved him even before he said it.
@@Animenzzz Thank you! I've added more of my feelings of the masterpiece into words in the reply section though they do evolve further spoiler so do be careful if you decide to read further!
@@methangelx Your welcome 😇 Yt doesn't seem to allow me to share the link since it keeps deleting my reply but if possible, the fan translation is by dennou-translations! A simple search online should be sufficient.
Kyoani taught me that no letter that could be sent deserves to go undelivered.
They taught me that life is about having fun, and not to take any small moment for granted.
They've shown me the importance of family, despite the differences you share.
They've shown me the shape of voice, and the impact yours can have on another's life.
They've created a great big Dango family, one that will always be together.
I hope the lives lost can rest easier knowing that their works have helped and saved millions around the world.
May those creative souls live on through the passions they brought to life.
I love Kyoani.
Kyoani Anime Series truly hits you different, I can totally understand what you mean 😭
TRUE's vocals hit different than most singers, and your playing also hits different than most pianists. Thank you for this surprise gift in the afternoon!
TRUE's voice is really powerful, I like how she especially hit the high notes with such clarity and power.
Their songs for Violet Evergarden hits the spot. Emotional and fitting.
The ending hit really hard, violet evergaden is the only anime that made me cry !!
This peice has a lot of emotions in it , thanks a lot for always making us remember those warm moments !!
Not gonna lie, I cried at least in two different scenes while watching the Violet Evergarden movie in the cinema. I am weak to emotional stories after all, haha
I'd recommend Maquia, its episode 10 feels on steroids.
@@zitingwang1352 done watched before this. have u try out violet evergarden? very emotional yet peaceful storyline. underrated movie since not everyone watch the series
Yet another beautiful Violet Evergarden arrangement. This man keeps blessing us with the best soundtracks.
Listening to this piece invokes a feeling of relaxing in a field on a peaceful spring day. The silky tone of the Steinway blended with the smooth scale runs and bell tones ringing out in the mid-high register reinforce this vibe. Yet, underneath the triumphant celebratory color of the piece, there is an undertone of longing. I have yet to watch the movie, but I can already feel how emotional the story is through the music.
My personal favorite moments:
-1:03 the soft intro crescendoing into the first chorus
-1:39 subtle yet smooth key change
-1:42 the easing into of the rolling arpeggios to start off the second verse, and the beautiful melody line
-2:38 the power of the second chorus, with the resonant mid-register bell tones at 2:44
-3:00 surprising change of groove to start off the bridge
-3:21 the lovely deep BASS resonance that serves as the foundation of the three hand melody section
-4:03 beautiful crossing harmonies
-4:23 absolutely lovely sparkling high register intro into the final chorus
-5:33 crescendo from the supposed soft outro into a majestic ending
Beautiful arrangement as always :) I noticed this week's upload did not have a premiere - is this a one-time change, or are you returning to the classic upload style again?
My personal favorite part is also 4:23 with the heaven-like sound. Perhaps the "softest" chorus variation I have ever created, haha.
I hope the movie air soon in your country so you can watch it! Definitely worth watching
Pray for KyoAni. I'm kind of a glad this video came as a "surprise". Another amazing emotional arrangement from Violet Evergarden. Im also really liking your lightning change it makes me feel somehow nostalgic :)
My current piano setup is partially inspired by the lighting system of a live music performance. It can contribute a lot to the atmosphere of the music if done well.
劇場版ヴァイオレットエヴァーガーデンを見て私はとても泣きました！
すごいいいお話でした！こんな素晴らしい話を作った京都アニメーションに感謝しかありません！
I cried very much when I saw the movie version of Violet Evergarden!
It was a great story! I'm just grateful to Kyoto Animation for making such a wonderful story!
Just can’t miss a single arrangement
After Sincerely, here comes WILL. Darkest day of KyoAni, but light up with Animenz's arrangement. Both were perfectly done. Thank you Animenz! #PrayforKyoAni
I come back to this cover when I’m thinking of my mother. Violet Evergarden was the last anime we watched together before cancer took her.
This is one of my favorite Animenz peices of all time, not the most difficult or impressive, but you can feel the emotion from every note. Sorry about your mom, I wish I had someone to watch anime with.
My personal favourite part in this arrangement was 0:01-6:19
The entire Violet Evergarden experience was really such a magical journey. So many great chilling moments during the latest movie. Thank you for carrying the emotions from the original songs of Violet Evergarden onto the piano. And thank you Kyoto Animation.
ヴァイオレットエヴァーガーデンは僕が映画で初めて泣いた作品です。
もちろん曲も大好きです。素敵な演奏をありがとう。
Wow wow! This whole performance is just mesmerising! As a piano music lover myself (making piano cover too), I find this playing and arrangement is genuinely beautiful. My apology for not knowing about this piece, but from your playing, I am falling in love with this music and the tune. I like how you play the music, making dynamic changes, which totally led me to different dimensions. I can totally feel the emotional part and sensing the depth of music. The sort, gentle and mellow part, I can sense the gentle touch from your playing, however, the richer part, I can feel that my soul being moved along with your playing. Very Very Kudos!
This channel has me subscribed and notification bell turned on. I was just a passer by from this channel, BUT! Now I chose to stay! Can't wait for more covers from your channel.
Side note, I LOVEEE the video setting. It's so soothing to look at. 😊
Love from Malaysia 🇲🇾
Thank you for subscribing! I am glad my piano arrangement is able to leave a good impression to you, even if you have never heard the original song before.
Welcome to my channel, fellow pianist! I hope you will enjoy my future uploads as well
If you're reading this Animenz, I just wanted to thank you for pushing me to be the best piano player I can be. I've wanted to play your piano arrangements for the longest time, and after lots of hard work and dedication, I've learned your old Swordland, old This Game, and am currently (attempting to) learn Unravel. Your music and piano in general has been one of the few things keeping me sane while staying at home this past year. Thank you for inspiring me and here's to many more amazing covers!
日本人以外からもこんな評価されてる。
ヴァイオレットエヴァーガーデンは最高のアニメだと思う
京アニが制作した最高傑作
映画ティッシュもってって半分無くなった
Idk why this song is underrated... I've been listening to this song since the released of the movie it's such a amazing song
Love any song from Violet Evergarden on Piano! Especially the ones from TRUE. Amazing as always Animenz
wow, just haven't expected this ost. hit me right in my face.
The chorus at 4:20 is probably one of the best pieces i’ve ever heard in my life
Honestly wow, you absolutely killed it, you completely captured all the emotion of Violet Evergarden. The Masterpiece of our time and KyoAni's Love letter to their fans.
The movie was so beautiful, this brings tears to my eyes♥️
The setting looks super beautiful and shiny!!
Thank you very much for posting♥️
I've watched this almost every day since finishing the movie a week ago and today I started crying within the first 20 seconds. Such a masterpiece in character writing, and a legendary arrangement as always
A beautiful arrangement, dedicated on the second anniversary of the tragedy. I'm glad you uploaded this! Can't believe it's been two years since that fateful day, but Kyoani has made a big return this season with Kobayashi S2! Thank you as always for putting in this work to create such fantastic arrangements :)
Fastest click in Asia.
And I am, once again, left speechless. Extremely high quality variation.
rest in peace those from KyoAni. To each and every one, thank you for the work you did.
I cant help but feel slightly over-emotional as i sit here listening to this tremendous arrangement. So many emotions and feelings poured into a piano and out through our ears. A beautiful and touching tribute this is indeed.
Amazing cover for an amazing song! This sent me right back to when I was watching the credits roll in the theater, silently thanking the people involved for animating Violet’s journey to its conclusion. I especially loved the section at 1:42, the fluid left hand run and the controlled right hand melodies just nailed the instrumental. Thanks for this performance and keep up the great work!
Like Violet Evergarden, this arrangement is a masterpiece! You have no idea how much I cried while watching this movie. I didn't expect it will make me cry more than Clannad and A Place Further Than the Universe.
I commented the same 1 minute ago! I feel you! Everyone shares the same feelings for this movie! I cried for 4 days straight and had to think about my life. Violet Evergarden is at least on the same level as Clannad! Kyoto Animation truly knows how to touch our soul!
@@TH-camr_YusukeFromGermany Oh! Definitely! This is what I truly like about anime. It makes you take a step back and rethink about your life. Violet's character development is so well done. You can notice it by each letter she writes. The last letter in the movie struck me into tears. It's the essence of what "I love you" really means.
Dear Kyoani,
Thank you for all your hard works for creating many unbelivably amazing animes like Violet Evergarden, K-on, Hibike! euphonium and more. May KyoAni live till the world says so.
*Sincerely*,
your audience...around the world
It's been a week since I come here over and over again to listen to this. It's different to watch/listen from Animenz TH-cam channel.
This music give so much peace and is full of emotion. Just close your eyes,listen and you'll already forget that you've weariness.
Man Violet Evergarden hits like a truck out of nowhere.
Sidenote i just finished Vivy and it has so many great soundtrack, like a blend of Guilty Crown in term of tragic and Violet in terms of self discovery. I think it would suit your taste very much so.
Amazing piece, even if i can't tell a difference from Sol to La XD
Today, 2 years ago,
on July 18th 2019,
Is when the arsonist attack,
on Kyoto Animations happened,
To honor the 36 live lost that day: *Salutes*.
I'm currently watching Violet Evergarden for the first time right now... (I had it planned). The Kyoani fire was 2 years ago today, and it was not too long ago that I learned that, it was just a coincidence that I was watching Violet evergarden.
Finally watched the movie today, and really I have no words that can describe the movie so perhaps I need a doll to write them out for me.... though put simply, I LOVE YOU KyoAni, and you Animenz for this beautiful arrangement!
Wow I can believe it has passed another year. Time goes so fast. Thankyou for your beautiful music that its always done from the heart
its so full of emotions that i am getting goose bumps for a whole 6 minutes!! almost cried, but in the end, it is a breath taking experience. it is indeed the final piece. RIP for KyoAni, may they be rest in peace.
And with the Netflix and Bluray version of the movie coming next month, many will finally be able to watch the final instalment of this beautiful series. Thank you Animenz
Sudden upload at 1 AM? No complain :P
Nice job as always man~ my favorite part is definitely 3:21-3:44 followed by the soft section at 3:51, I just love the right hand ornament and multi voicing :D great job!
No one really managed to appreciate the scenes of this movie because everyone was emotionally distressed and crying, literally the best animated and illustrated shots are in this film.
#prayforkyoani
It feels like lying in a serene ocean when listening this heavenly melody.
Such a beautiful music! This can, certainly, console those who suffer grief.
Thank you for playing this song. Rest in peace, to the generous people of Kyoto animation who dedicated their lives to bringing gracious animation to anime fans, you will never be forgotten. The beautiful stories you created will live on and on, and will surely carry on your legacies. Violet Evergarden was one of their masterpieces, and I hope to be able to watch it one day 😭 beautiful piece once again this week
Now that you mention 3:49 is the main theme of Violet Evergarden.. it has similar melodies to "Dear Violet" which performed by Yui Ishikawa (seiyuu of Violet Evergarden) from album Letters and Doll ～Looking back on the memories of Violet Evergarden～
The anime, the movies and the Violet Evergarden novels mean a lot to me. Thank you for realizing this another gem of yours!
Finally... I really love Violet Evergarden's song & BGM. Thank you so much for uploading it, really appreciate it.
Ever since you made the community post about you watching the movie, I've been eagerly anticipating this arrangement. And boy are my ears blessed. Thank you for the surprise :)
Something about this hits different, such a beautiful and meaningful piece played elegantly and smoothly. An extravagant and amazing anime which already makes tears trickle down your eye. Thank you animenz for all of your covers!!!
I always listen to Animenz' uploads 4-5 times. Does anyone else do that?
Always! And each time, I hear and appreciate something new from Animenz's wondrous playing ! ^_^
I wish I could see the smile on your face as you played this. This song brings me lots of joy and I’m sure it does for you too 😁
Beautiful as always , it almost made me cry.
Thank you , Animenz.
I like how the ball is also helping tell the story haha. The lights match the mood of the current section in the piece. A nice touch of detail!
Here's to hoping you do a Vivy arrangement at some point.
fr bruh
Yes bro !!! Everyone will love it!
I have heard many requests about Vivy recently. I will watch it this week.
@@Animenzzz prepare some tissues. This one anime got me teary-eyed on almost every episode
I'm gonna be real with you chief, i didn't even bother to finish the anime.
Violet evergarden in one word "masterpiece" animenz performance in one word "masterpiece"
I’m glad I was able to watch Violet Evergarden The Movie today i.e the 2nd anniversary of KyoAni attack. I’m happy about how they drew out the ending for Violet Evergarden. Have to compliment all the people who worked on it, they delivered a great animation. Kyoto Animation studio is a treasure.
Oh wow How I’m glad to have waited until now to watch this video. I watched the movie last night, and wow, just wow.. you truly are the king of anime music on the piano. Thank you for delivering such amazing works video after video, this was wonderful, I could feel every bit of the movie through this video.
I need to watch the movie ahhh this song is way too beautiful and TRUE sings it so well. Beautiful playing as always, my heart goes out to everyone who has lost a loved one two years ago. I am glad kyoani has bounced back. ❤️
OH daaamn! first time i hearing this song, still havent watched the movie, i will do it when i get the chance.
Amazing arrangement animenz! I rly like that you kept it simple for the most part, simple is sometimes better and gives more feels in my opinion.
Great stuff! looking forward to your next arrangement!
Have a nice day :)
Fun fact: there was a three hand technique version for the intro part and first verse but I decided against it because simplicity can also shine on its own if used for the right song. Simple is really the best sometimes!
This was absolutely mesmerizing
The whole arrangment is so bright and colorful, i'm in love with it. 5:45 reminds of the ending of your "Sincerely" arrangement. Btw why no premiere?
Could have to do with the fact that his grandfather died recently
5:45 is basically the spiritual successor of the ending part of Sincerey - it is playing the same melody (the Violet Evergarden main theme) but this time, with more confidence and optimism!
The scene where Violet and Gilbert confessed to each other and Violet was completely wordless hits deep real differently
I listened to this song "WILL" every day since premiere. The piano arrangement always touches me to recall the movie plot of "Violet Evergarden". My heart is full of turbulent emotions, but I can't say anything. Every time I listen to it, I couldn't stop my tears.
帰ろうか 帰ろうよ
舍て去るものなんてない
喜び 悲しみ 全てに たゆたい
The lyrics of "WILL" describe Violet’s mood , and it can also be regarded as the mood of being fans of Kyoto Animetion. Two years have passed, “welcome back!”
ただ ただ ただ
あなたと 生きていく
I’ll keep on living together with you.
At the end of this story, under the stars, Violet finally embraced her happy ending.
Kyoto Animation has started a new journey with the blessings of everyone.
And all fans will support and accompany them to work hard together!
Thank you for telling this unforgettable story with touching notes.
It fully feels the hopeful expectation. The bright and warm color, like the wind blowing from the sea, so refreshing and vast….
i just miss the sound of your grand piano it is great to have you back as known as the Best pianist i ever knew=Animenz
After losing a bit of motivation in piano the past few days, I'm really glad that I am able to hear this.
Listening to the performance quietly.. I feel so ecstatic.. This song is very comforting to me after a difficult day!! thank you.
Gotta say, this is probably your best recorded video, aside from the amazing arrangement, the motion and video quality surpasses every other videos. Even your 2020 steins gate op which I regarded as your best recorded video ever.
This is probably one of your best arrangements.. just listened to it 4x and won’t stop for a long moment lol, absolutely beautiful
I just watched this on Netflix and came straight here, I cried like a baby again. Thank you
I love how you integrated the main theme in the song
Absolutely beautiful arrangement as always, Animenz. I couldn't think of better lines to express my feeling.
Also, stay safe, everyone.
this is so beautiful. I love violet evergarden. Thank you, Animenz
Thank you Animenz for the heartwarming pieces.
Pray for KyoAni
This is beautiful and I have been wanting to hear the piano arrangements of this song for a long time!
you have created an incredibly perfect masterpiece
this song made me miss Violet Evergarden. It's sad that it has come to an end. Violet Evergarden was such a beautiful anime.
The emotion in this playing is amazing and inspiring! I’m thankful to be able to experience listening to this today.
i have been waiting for this for to long. your annoucement make me really surprised and i feel so excited now
I love this song. I listen to it constantly. So it was a welcome suprise when I found your arrangement instead of the official song on my recommended feed.
my tears won't stop pouring. I don't know if it's because of this wonderfull song or your astouning arrangement
Ive been waiting for an arrangement of Will - True
Thanks Animenz!
I'm so glad you covered this song, it's my favourite TRUE piece!
And yet another year has passed... time sure seems to fly these days, still feels like yesterday when you upload Sincerely...
This is such a beautiful and powerful arrangement
I usually rewatch the complete Anime before I go to the cinema to watch a movie version of said Anime. A memory refresher to understand the whole plot of the movie better, haha
Thanks a lot, Will & Mirai no Hito e was my favorite song....
I love your piano arrangement.My life starts with your upload on Sunday.And on weekends, I play your arrangements on the piano.Of course very difficult.But
I want to hear your arrangements and practice.
Your wonderful arrangements always make us happy.✨May you have a lot of happiness.✨
表現が間違っていたら、ごめんなさい😅
An awesome addition to the Violet Evergarden arrangement series!
Violet Evergarden was the perfect soundtrack to play for the anniversary... we will never forget...
My absolute favourite song. Thanks for covering it!
"They'll always be with you. No one's really gone. Now I understand how you feel. Not all of it, but some of it."
~Violet Evergarden
I do not think i can hit that like button hard enough for this absolutely amazing piece....
Thank you, Kyoto Animation.
I really want to listen to this because I always listen to Animenz uploads. It's been four days since its release and it's teasing me every time it pops up in my recommendation. But I want to watch the movie first so I have an emotional attachment to this song that I know I will. I LOVE Animenz's arrangements and I know it'll be great regardless, but I want the context of the song too. I couldn't watch it at the cinemas because they were airing it at an inconvenient time and it was only for one day :(. The pain T-T
I WILL listen to this piece once I've watched the movie. I'm so keen for both!
Never been so early to a new video and I'm so happy to see another Violet Evergarden song, thanks always!
I love violet evergarden ost, and your piano arrangements of it are the best.
One of the best heart touching anime I hv ever watched!♥️♥️♥️
Yes!! Finally!! I waited this for so long 😭😭😭I think I'm gonna cry
I still constantly listen to your arrangement of Sincerely, which you dedicated to KyoAni. It hits me deep every time, as this arrangement is hitting me now. What’s funny is that I have plans to watch the
Violet Evergarden movie in 30 mins - a plan made last week. I look forward to seeing the movie soon. As usual, thank you for posting this and again acknowledging the tragic fire.
Back with the old piano. This is amazing!
I was actually waiting for this😭thank you
can you do the arrangement for [crying for rain] by Minami (OP Domestic Girlfriend)?
this song is just crazy and i just want to hear your piano version for this masterpiece.
who has the same thought like me?
👇
put in the to do list, an amazing song indeed with a brilliant performance by Minami
FINALLY. I'LL WAIT NO MATTER HOW LONG. I LOVE DOMEKANO ESPECIALLY THE MANGA NOT JUST THE OP. LOOKING FORWARD TO IT. I REALLY LOVE YOUR ARRANGEMENTS EVEN THOUGH I DON'T PLAY PIANO.
@@Animenzzz Senya (Itachi theme) also
I've finally watched The Movie in Netflix, and now I can also enjoy yohr arrangement. I hope I practice enough to once learn your sheets. You're incredible!
