My Steinway Piano is finally back! After being separated for more than 8 months, I am so happy to be able to play on a grand piano again. It took me almost one week of nonstop practice to get used to the heavy keys of a Steinway again because I was playing on an electrical piano since January 2021.
To celebrate the return of my instrument, I decided to upload the much-requested song「There is a Reason」from『No Game No Life: Zero』, which is essentially the spiritual successor of my 「This Game」piano arrangement. They both feature extensive arpeggio passages, fast three-hand techniques and a super exciting finale part - with other words: Just pure fun to play!
I used a very uncommon left-hand pattern in the first chorus in 1:11, because I really liked how the guitar instrument is building up the tension in the original song and I wanted to imitate that sound on the piano. I can’t believe a simple octave left hand pattern can actually sound that exciting - sometimes simple is really the best.
My favorite part of the original song is the key change in 3:36 because I absolutely didn’t expect the chorus being played in E-minor instead of F#-minor. Usually, J-pop songs are using the key change for the final repeat of the chorus, but「There is a Reason」 basically reversed that order. Really awesome passage and I actually consider this as the actual climax of the entire song. That’s why I omitted the pedal on the piano for this part to make it stand out even more.
Last but not least, I was actually planning to play a small modulation in 3:50 to make a smoother transition from E-minor back to F#-minor, but I realized the best flow of music is achieved by simply jumping back to F# minor, like the original song. A quick glissando is really the ultimate “cheat code” if you want to do a key change instantly!
Alright, thank you for reading this week’s “Animenz Explains” column!
With my new recording studio fully set up, I will continue with my “Best of Anime Movie theme songs” upload in the next week as well!
And it's a song from the popular Fate/Stay Night - Heaven’s Feel Movie!
See you next week again!

おかえりなさい、Steinway君。
#NoGameNoLifeZero #ThereIsaReason #Piano
I am back to full power again! Hope you guys are ready for some piano arpeggio action!
Ah yes, 3-5 hand techniques, rapid arpeggios, insane hand stretching, fast hand jumping, sadistic polyrhythms. The ingredients of a classic Animenz arrangement 😁
happy to hear that the piano is coming back! would you recommend Nord Grand as the best non-acoustic device or there are better options? assuming unlimited budget
Asphyxia pleaseee
Ok desu kami sama
Yes! This is really good! I really love the piano sheets you make, I wanna be like you Animenz!
To that one person that kept requesting “there is a reason”, congratulations lol
:)
I'm not sure who you mean, but I'm happy it is finally there ;D
Yesss, i requested this song for like a million times
I am really happy for this day
Yeah hahaha
U mean Andy?
Grandpiano-kun is back, Moonlamp-chan is also back. Together happily ever after…
*Digitalpiano-kun: ...*
Actually i guess, he will still be playing his Digital Piano, as there will be times, when he can't or doesn't wanna harrass his Neighbours with (awesome!) music, like deep in the night ;)
Digitalpiano-kun (aka Nord-kun) is still being used for my late night practice, so he is not completely abandoned!
@@Animenzzz I'm happy for you Nord-kun
@@Animenzzz Nord-kun: be abandoned 🌚, but not completely abandoned 🌝
Nord-kun is Animenz's Rem.
Grand piano✅
Animenz ✅
Moonlamp chan✅
This bout to be epic🤜🤛
I couldn't just abandon her like that, haha
Now she happily lives with Steinway-kun.
@@Animenzzz forever and ever🙏
@@Animenzzz new slice of life plot?
@@Animenzzz but how about electric piano san?
@@Animenzzz What about NGNL?
Season 1: Animenz ー The Beginning ー
OVA: Animenz Tragedy ーNord Grand Arcー
Season 2: Animenz Reborn ー The Return of the Steinway ー
That pretty much sums it up. It really feels good to be back again!
And Moonlamp-chan will also continue following my musical journey!🌕
これからもMoonlampちゃんが私の旅についてきてくれることになりました!🌕
Moonlamp chan is that side character that is introduced too late in the story but everyone loves it and it sticks until the end.
This new season feels like you took what you learned from the Nord Grand redemption arc and implemented it back into your original setup! I loved everything about this so much, it's really so beautiful. The lighting, the way Moonlamp Chan adds the visual spectacles of the previous arc, and of course this incredible arrangement.
Great to have you back Animenz!
Edit: Was the arpeggio at 3:50 similar to or the same as one of the arpeggios in your Butter-Fly arrangement? Just a weird little coincidence I noticed, if true.
Animenz beach episode when?
Hope animenz can play the music which play on the electrical piano again on the grand piano
And bring a new member "Moonlamp" to the aminenz party lol. I so happy the Animenz epic Reborn.
Damn, after getting his piano back, he immediately went on and made sure he uses most of the keys again as if he's hugging his piano 😂, you can clearly see it with those series of arpeggios 👍
It has been a while since I used that many fast arpeggios in the left hand! Feels like some morning exercise to me
@@Animenzzz "morning exercise" he says, while adding having insane arpeggios.
“Life is not a game of luck. If you wanna win, work hard.”
@@danielsimmons4436 true, at the end of the day, we are all slaves to RNG-sama
@@Animenzzz animenz replied wowww
@@Animenzzz Life is like a game with incomplete information, everything around us is decided by innumerable variables unbeknownst to ourselves and yet we still can influence it just enough to make a difference, like a good poker player who wins by making the right choices consistently in a game that is overwhelmingly based on sheer luck.
"Chess is no different than tic-tac-toe."
@@endermiteengineering6969 I always am baffled by that line. It’s so untrue it makes you think how it got into the script.
Finally back to grand piano!
Hello there verified youtuber, I see you everywhere btw.
If Animenz were to be coming back to Malaysia for a recital like in 2015 and 2017 would you join too? Was his helper during his 2017 recital in KL ✌.
Wait are you playing for some uni in Malaysia soon?
@@xdmamakkopitiam8930 yup, at UCSI.
My 30th time commenting in your comment in a different video
OH GOD, HOW I MISSED THIS FORMAT, these finger reflections on the front of the piano, these wooden hammers hitting the strings, this Steinway & Sons lettering. This great and incredible sound. Finally it happened. Animenz and the Steinway Grand piano ARE BACK TOGETHER.
We are literally just made for each other, because have been practicing on the Steinway for the last 12 years at least
@@Animenzzz The revolutionary emotions between you and Steinway is very touching. Steinway has been integrated with your life.
The lyrics of "There is a Reason - No Game No Life : Zero OP", "So, the reason I carry on for the sake of love is because you're right here with me." (So, 愛のために進むのは,君とここにいるから) shall be the best words to explain the reason I carry on listening to the excellent musicians' work pieces for the sake of love is because Animenz is always right here with me.
Perfectly fitting lyrics indeed!
@@Animenzzz You're welcome. And I'm glad to see your Steinway Grand Piano returned back home.
Can I be your neighbor please
"Moonlamp-chan on the grand piano"
Why didn't the possibility crossed my mind?! It's beautiful, I knew you wouldn't abandon her.
I am glad (and I bet we all are)
And what a way to come back on your grand piano
I mean _there is a reason_ why animenz and his grand piano are the absolute best duo in the anime music world.
_there is a reason_ indeed!
I've never felt so attached to a lamp before in my life...

Thank you so much for even reserving this piece for the grand reintroduction of the Grand Piano. Everybody has that one or two songs they really want you to arrange and I've been anticipating your arrangement for almost 4 years now. The wait will surely be worth it, considering how your style has improved over the years. Vielen Dank! I'm looking forward to your next arrangements.
Greetings, the guy spamming the comment sections about this song/piece
No Game No Life songs are special, that's why I waited until my grand piano has arrived!
Just watched NGNL: Zero yesterday, was looking for a piano version for the ending, and today Animenz is giving me one. I don't know what to say. I'm grateful.
Perfect timing I guess!
WOW, that thumbnail look sleek as hell, welcome back Animenz!!
Sometimes, simple is the best! This also goes for thumbnails!
Finally Thor got his Mjonir back
"I am still worthy!"
Finally, the long awaited arrangement. What can I say, that won't be said. Incredible, enthralling, intense, beautifully done, quint essentially Animenz. Such a powerful energy throughout the whole arrangement. The arpeggios, jumps, runs and just all round dynamic insanity on display is just amazing. Welcome back Steinway-Kun, always a pleasure to see you.
Your fan
Tim
Thank you for your comment, Tim!
I will quote your nicely coined word "all around dynamic insanity" in my future video descriptions, because it sounds awesome, haha
@@Animenzzz thanks for reading my comment! Haha I thought you'd like that description 😉 😂
Congratulations on getting back the Steinway D274 Spirio R Grand Piano. This is absolutely a stunning arrangement, and it gave me lots of nostalgic vibes. I also look forward to your future development Animenz!
Here are my favorite highlights of this arrangement:
I really like the quiet beginning, sounds exactly like the original song. At 0:32, I love the gentle bass notes, it sounds heavy but warm.
0:48 gentle "cross-hand" technique, serve as a very nice simple 3 hand technique.
1:13 The entire atmosphere is built up with dynamic octave patterns. As you said, simple is the best. The pattern here has also reminded me of the first verse of your Kaikai Kitan arrangement.
1:44 The second verse starts with 3 hand technique, the LH patterns used in the first verse are now moved to the RH and served as a nice contrast with the previous part.
2:12 The combination between staccato and fast LH arpeggios has formed a nice pre-chorus part.
2:44 I really like how you arranged this part. While LH is playing bass notes and melody at the same time, RH plays fast arpeggios. It has reminded me of the last chorus of your The Everlasting Guilty Crown arrangement. Very fancy passage.
3:36 is 10/10 my favorite part of this arrangement. As you said, this part DESERVE it! The release of the pedal, strong RH decorations, and powerful bass notes simply exploded this part and set the entire arrangement on fire.
3:56 After an octave glissando, the entire arrangement has entered the final part. Glissando can always serve as a fast and convenient transition while arranging anime piano covers. The following fast LH arpeggios have built a "sound wall" for the entire song. This part has definitely reminded me of your arrangement of This Game, Swordland, and unravel. Feels nostalgic!
Another wonderful arrangement by Animenz! Good luck with your next upload!
Yeah, the keyword for this arrangement is "nostalgia" indeed!
It really has been a while since I used such extensive arpeggios for both hands.
And I agree, 3:36 is the BEST part of the entire song, Key Change for the win!
@@Animenzzz yah keep it up
your music is awesome
I just hope you read this... Just want to thank you for everything you have did for anime community... You never know how many people you have inspired from your music... It is literally one of a kind, i owe you a thank you for lifetime. Legend for a reason❤
& Steinway is back congrats on that too as well❤
I read all comments on the day of upload! Thank you for your support!
Tet: let's play a game of speed melody.
Animenz: Aschente!
Am I the only one that noticed the suit change as well? The red lining at the end is the same suit as your earlier arrangements before 2020 🧐
A nostalgia throwback to the 2015 years, where I wore this outfit quite often for my videos!
I WAS HERE
:)
welcome back animenz
THERE IS A REASON this song on my playlist
Just want to say the setup was perfect, the volume, camera angle, lighting, etc. And i really enjoy this style of arranging, showy but also kinda of orchestra style with those builds-up, like an evolve version of your 2014/2015 videos.
Thank you! Took me a whole week to experiment and brainstorm, what kind of lightning I should use for my next generation of videos.
Moonlamp-chan brings such an amazing energy out of Steinway-kun. A match made in heaven

I literally cry EVERY TIME hearing this song
Hey animenz,
I rarely comment on youtube. But did u know? Not only u inspired many people by your music, but ur story also inspired many people out there.
U build youtube channel from zero -> got many fans -> when u have fame and community your ex agency try to break you down -> you got separated from your piano -> not giving up -> starting all over again -> got all the support from your fans -> finally u made a breakthrough and walked away from your hellish moment. I mean literally u made us believe : there is always hope and good ending for someone who never give up.
Thanks for the music and your life lesson 😍🥰
The continuous low bass notes really take good advantage of the 9-foot concert grand, but i am quite surprised that you use the deepest bass note in the first chorus ,usually you save that for the last chorus when the song reaches its climax .some highlight for this arrangement:
The three hand techniques at 2:43 and 3:36 really stands out from the other,especially the 3:36 with slightly staccato is genius .i think the reason your arrangements attract me so much is because you can always surprise me with the deploy of different sound texture.
The left hand arpeggios and right hand B note tremolo at 3:51 is almost identical to your Departure (guilty crown)arrangement .The left hand octave glissando at 3:57 reminds me of your Daisy arrangement,and the following left hand arpeggios at 3:58 reminds me of your swordland arrangement, the satisfying D note in 4:10 is also a nice touch, Finally ,the sound wall at 4:31 by fast upward scales is a big release for the tension which gives me the same vibe as your unlasting arrangement although in unlasting you use fast downward arpeggios instead of upward scales to create that release effect.Masterpiece as usual! Lastly, Animenz, if it's possible, I hope the video you make in the future can have higher angle just like your 2020 video to include the damper head of piano in the sight so we can know how you use the pedal(e.g. the camera angle of your 2021 this game video and this there is a reason video isn't high enough, the damper head is out of sight) , thank you!!!
Welcome back Steinway-kun at long last, and to moon lamp-chan as well 🙂
The name of the *game* in this cover for me is deep resounding bass. It really serves as the foundation upon which the rest of the elements reside.
My personal play-by-play for this cover:
0:31 - deep bass note here sets the tone for the introductory verse
0:54 - slow yet deliberate countermelody in the RH rings so nicely
1:11 - first chorus LH - simple yet effective marching bass. it's not often that i see an Animenz go down to one LH note, but the unexpected contrast works nicely here
1:43 - second verse RH - light upper voice harmony rings nicely
2:18 - deep bass in the middle of the second pre-chorus punches so nicely
2:43 - The signature arpeggio countermelodies from the og This Game cover make their first appearance!
3:18 - Chill upbeat bridge, a nice change of pace from the intensity of the rest of the piece
3:33 - Arpeggio build up to pseudo third chorus gave me chills
3:36 - Ringing upper RH chords so nice
3:55 - Key change into another beautifully arpeggiated final chorus :O
4:18 and 4:25 - Strong bookend motifs to cap off the final chorus
4:32 - All of the massive build-up suddenly subsides in resonance, serving as a backdrop for the soft outro
The Animenz Season 2 end card gave me chills. Can't wait to see what you have in store for us!
I also realized it's the first time I am using such a massive bass note like the C# before the chorus has even started. Perhaps I just fell in love with the satisfactory bass note sound on the grand piano, haha
Listening to your piano covers is itself the hugest reasons of having huge smile and enthusiasm !!!!
You really struggled a lot this year, gald to see you got your Steinway back
ありがとうございます!!
ありがとうございます!!😭😭😭
本当に感謝しか出来ない
作者さんがまた体調を崩してしまって悲しく思っていたからいい励みになります
"There is a reason why we still have the moonlamp chan "
~~~~~~
Welcome back Animenz-sama! Been waiting long time for this cover and really looking forward to that description!
I knew it! Animenz wouldn't abandon moonlamp-chan😁
how could I.... ;_;
YESSSS!!! It's back and it's glorious. I'm going to have to rewatch it again to confirm but I surprisingly feel like it was a lot more "lighter" and "hopeful" in a sense than what I expected.
My interpretation was probabpy a more archaic and dark one so this one definitely took me by suprise.
Now that the Steinway's back I guess you'll be on it 24/7 re-acclimating to it so I can't wait to see what's up next. Either way, I'm glad "There is a reason" got to be the comeback song for the grand.
Also, you bamboozled us with the disco ball didn't ya. He seems happy not retiring.
The Moonlamp was actually supposed to retire, but just before recording I put the tiny lamp on the grand piano to see how it would look like and... it's a perfect fit!

The Steinway returning is something No Game No Life will never do
don't do that to me... *tears*
おかしいな。風邪でも引いたかな?
鳥肌と涙が・・
控えめに言って 最強。
Ah... I'll never get tired of seeing the reflection of your hands in the Steinway. Absolutely beautiful~!
Also I REALLY loved the closing you did for the piece! It was so gentle and majestic!
The lighting is awesome.
Looks like you start experimenting with 'cinematic look' on grand piano as well. What an unique way to change the environment on grand piano, even though the premiere has not started yet.
By far, I really love your Sparkle lighting with the blue-purple-yellow ambiences.
...
Maybe we'll see Animenz adds practical lighting in the future..?
Wait it really happened
yes, it really happened! The best of two worlds combined.
I purposely choose a thumbnail to make it look dark first to make the lightning system a surprise element for all the TH-cam live premiere watchers.
@@Animenzzz yes, you are full of surprises!! Can't wait to see more lighting techniques 🌃
This upload has exceeded all my expectations! I never expected this new set up with the lighting. I really liked the darker look with the contrast of the moon lamp. When the lights turned on, I was definitely surprised. The look of the grand is always a nice return, the reflection of the keys and fingers were something I never thought I would miss until it was gone. The arrangement itself was amazing! I liked the improvised sounding ending. The final chorus left hand with the inversion arpeggios definitely were a nice touch. I haven’t heard those in a while. It reminded me of some of your older arrangements. Well, now I see that you kind of closed the book on the digital piano age. Your last upload before the nord was a NGNL OP and your newest upload after the nord is a NGNL song. I guess you really are a fan of symmetry! 🤣
>I guess you really are a fan of symmetry! 🤣
Haha, you nailed it! Have my upvote/like
Symmetry is love, symmetry is justice
Return of the Steinway. Legendary.
this is hugely underrated, absolutely amazing
Just imagine, Animenz playing Ao no Waltz on a grand piano with Blue Moonlamp - chan🌌🌌
If the next arrangement is “Spring Song”, it’s gonna be awesome!
When I listened to this song in the theater, I couldn't hold my tears.
Same as I listen to this video now.
Welcome back Steinway-kun, you were missed and we're happy that you're back. And another amazing cover, I've always loved this song after watching an AMV on niconico about NGNL Zero that used this song.
This is not only good sounding but the best looking arangement ever!!
I was just listening to this song on my way home!
It is a really good song after all!
Even if you don't know Animenz, even if you don't see the number of subscribers, just the first notes are enough for you to know this will be breathtaking
Grand piano-kun with Moonlamp-chan together symbolize a new chapter in his life with a new learned life lessons in those difficult days. Now moonlamp-chan protects grand piano-kun with her wisdom.
Really missed the sound of your Steinway D after months long. Thank you for the wonderful arrangement ^^
De regreso con una de mis canciones favoritas, There is a reason es brutal en el mejores de los sentidos y escucharla en el piano es sencillamente magistral.
4K VIDEO + OP PIANO + GOD ANIMENZ = NICE!!
Animenz + Steinway grand + Moonlamp Chan
perfect combination.
Damn, this like Cap getting his shield back.. Congrats on the Steinway Animenz
Good one! Cap is simply not the same without his shield.
Your arrangements never fails to overwhelm me!
真感動 >"
My life is complete 🥺
Animenz + Grand piano = Best in universe
Lights cannot be more beautiful; it's as if mini-moon-chan and friends are telling a story of their own ~
Hey, so happy that you're back Animenz!
1:43 / 2:43 / 3:36 / 4:04 Signature 3 hand technique
4:08 - 4:11 sounds so emotionally satisfying. It REALLY HIT THE SPOT... I find myself squeezing my eyes shut while anticipating this part to absorb all the built-up emotions...
4:31 - 4:33 a left hand jump of over 3 octaves.... I wonder which one's more difficult, Gurenge's ending or this.
If this was only episode 0 of Animenz Season 2, boy oh boy oh boy am I excited for what's coming....
============================================
THERE IS A REASON as to why I still play the piano up to this day.
👉 #Animenz
I also love how the melody of the final chorus in the original song is slightly changing. From E#-C#-C# to D-C#-C#, it adds so much impact in the flow of music.
It really hits the spot indeed!
First time in all these years I see Animenz replying to all these comments (YT algorithm must be destroyin ya badly haha). Nonetheless, you returning to the grand...don’t call it a comeback but this is shaking.
I usually do reply to a few comments within the first 24 hours after my video has been published. But this time, I was excited to see my grand piano appearing on youtube again, so I replied to more comments than usual, haha
So viele jahre habe ich gewartet, es ist meisterhaft geworden ich ziehe wie immer meinen Hut. Dein neuer Stil gefällt mir richtig gut.
I swear it gets better every time I listen to it.
I know this is totally out of the spectrum of videos you make, but I'm actually interested in like the workflow, how you practice, a day in the life of Animenz. Maybe you can make a video about it? Maybe show us the world/routine the brings these wonderful works of art to life.
That's a really good idea. I think for this purpose I will open a second youtube Channel, focusing on the behind the scenes of my piano life
@@Animenzzz name it the abandoned grand jkjkjk
I have a question animemz. Do you play the piece perfectly every time or do you have to rerecord a few times before you upload? These pieces seem so difficult to play and im really impressed every time I hear them.
I need at least 5-15 recording attempts until I get a good take from start to finish. Behind every video of mine, there are hours and hours of practice, but the end result is always worth it!
@@Animenzzz These pieces really make me happy. I have learnd half of Evangelion and am currently trying to learn Unravel. I love every single cover you have made!! I listen to them 24/7
I learned Animenz's colors and it took me a hell lot of time to make it perfect !
@@SveaGe that's sooo good....you WILL reach success!!!...tell me when you get the piece without any problems...and I'll tell when I learn sungha Jung's version of unravel in guitar lol.....
dat lighting on the piano
I was wondering why the sound was so much more full until I realized you had your grand piano back! Congratulations!
I knew you were going to keep the light. It looks cool on the grand piano.
Small wish to Animenz: If you can, please film Damper in the video. I always look at the damper in the video and learned when you use the pedal, thanks.
noted, I will try to improve the camera angle for the next video!
+1 for this
@@AnimenzzzThanks a lot !!
If you look closely right above the lamp, you can see the action of the damper.
Amazing music as always- thank you for all you do for the anime/piano community! I can't express how happy I am that you make these videos.
you’re a bro for giving us all you’ve given us 🤜
There is a Piano - No Animenz No Life: Grand

I can't describe how happy I am for you now that your Steinways piano is back.
Everyone of your shoots are epic, the lighting, the sound, the camera angle, the outfit, a Steinway, you are simply EPIC👏
Animenz, we are aware you probably have a busy life but people here wait just you to upload your awesome arrangements :c Hope you will post more often!
I will! From now on
@@Animenzzz i can't believe you replied..i think my life is completed now, no jokes 笑
Yayyyy I'm so happy, this piano is definetely special lol. Beautiful as always, and moonlamp chan seems comfortable on this huge steinway xD
Now my request: Give me a reason, by Megumi Hayashibara, from Slayers. Lol, this one is kinda old school, but not too much I think?
All song suggestions will be taken into consideration, thanks for your input!
@@Animenzzz 😭thaaaank youuuuuu
WELCOME BACK STEAINWAY-SAN
The abandoned piano pressed dislike🤣
Best comment right here.
(But I still occasionally use the stage piano for late night practice so it's not completely abandoned!)
Very excited for the return of the Steinway, but the temporary nord stage grand still sounded really good, was the sound directly from the piano or were you using a VST with it?
Oh hell yeah the GP is back. Our god has returned.
すごすぎて生で聞いてみたい!
Was it hard readjusting to playing on a grand?
and that 2 hand gliss tho!
yeah, it was surprisingly hard. 8 months without access to a grand piano is really hard for a classically trained pianist.
How about... the second reason?
Animenz: **goes back to grand piano**
The digital piano: my time has come
Thank you so much Animenz for arranging the song that I have never been able to properly translate onto the piano❤
.
And now to wait for the piano score👀
Just out of curiosity
Doesn’t moonlamp-chan mess up with the acoustics?
It's tiny (palm sized), so it's not really interfering much
@@Animenzzz Oh ok!
Alright 👍🏻
Ty
finalyllylylyylyly, everything is back now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
there is a reason is one of my favorites ❤️❤️
and this arrangement ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Return of the King
No matter what I'm doing when listening to this, I have to stop at 4:32 and just close my eyes to really listen. Unless I'm driving. But anyway, chills every time at that ending!
He has returned!!
words can't describe how amazing this is
Doubtless, animenz's arrangements are always one of the best versions i have ever heard! Your performance this time is speechless as before, A uncle!
Yay Grand piano is back at its finest
Moonlight did gave a beautiful flavor to this art as a whole.
Animenz finally hit his final form. Glad that grand-kun is back at it again as well
