    ● Song: Akuma no Ko / 悪魔の子
    ● Anime: Attack on Titan Final Season Part 2 / 進撃の巨人
    ● Original by: Ai Higuchi
    ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
    Thank you for watching and supporting this channel. I hope you enjoy my cover.
    Akuma no Ko is a masterpiece of a ending song and I believe it is only fitting to put my all into making a guitar cover of it. Ai Higuchi is such a good singer and I implore you to check out her other songs:
    / aihiguchiofficial
    This song is my hardest arrangement yet, harder than 86's ED "Avid", and it is a lot harder to play that it looks like in video. Most of the difficulty is in the verse and pre-chorus. Some of the chord shapes in the pre-chorus are truly horrendous but it had to be done to maintain faithfulness to the original. The reason Avid was hard was because the constantly shifting hand positions to play the harmonics and percussion. The reason Akuma no Ko is hard is because it's very tiring and very fast.
    Animenz's piano arrangement of this song came out in the middle of my arranging process so I may have taken some inspiration from it.
    I couldn't find a good English translation of the lyrics for the subtitles so I just took what was publicly available and made it more grammatically friendly, while staying true to the original lyrics that represents Eren's feelings. If I butchered the meaning of a line, please tell me in the comments.

    Hey Robert! I think you're one of the most fun acoustic cover artists to listen to, your covers convey a lot of emotion that more techincal artists sometimes miss. Out of Comedy or LilaS which one seems more likely to hit the channel first? Don't rush yourself, we know it'll come out fantastic no matter how long it takes.
