This song is so beautiful, even that insane scream was painfully beautiful. who would have know that something so harsh could be so pretty at the same time
It fits the mood he is going for along with the instruments Wanting to see their precious loved ones safe and untainted While he suffers alone, stuck in the loop of a once pure and caring person into a savage who tears through anything and break his own morals. And that scream would be the breaking desperation
That's just TK s style , even when it's just his songs and not anime related he likes to crack up his voice intentionally, like strain his voice , he's done this throughout the years and I assume his voice got used up to going to the limit and over , the insane thing about TK is that he also plays the guitar at the same time when singing like that and screams , which is very impressive in my opinion, many say they don't like his voice but I think it's his style and fits perfectly , his range and technique is impressive and for me his voice is very beautiful, and sometimes it's like he cuts you with emotional waves when he's singing , I recommend you check this live performance of his . th-cam.com/video/tJK33w96-2k/w-d-xo.html
He's got an extremely unique voice. It's almost like he's permanently in falsetto. He's not a countertenor I don't think, since he doesn't sound like a Mezzo and still has masculine qualities to his voice, but at the same time he sounds more feminine. It's just tough for me to place, but I love how much emotion it brings.
Scream singing it's actually a technique used by metal vocalists. Including myself. It isn't even hard to do, everyone can do it. The thing is, please don't hurt your voice now.
@@Nukerunin I think a big part of his singing is how breathy or clear he sings and in this song, mostly it's a very breathy but still high and to the note. If this makes sense :D I really couldn't say about his voice range, I wouldn't place him as contra tenor either (or countertenor) but he sure is very skilled at different ways of using his voice. On the higher end of male vocals at least I'd say but if he hasn't done any classical singing it can be really hard to say. I've had some classical training and for me the hard things are a: breathy singing and b: any type of growling :D
I live in Tokyo. It's a shame, but I didn't know there was a singer like him in Japan if I hadn't seen your channel. It was my first time hearing the title "Tokyo Ghoul", but I was able to understand the despair and loneliness that comes from having a ghoul inside of him. "Don't look at me" "But don't forget me". What a deep lyric. Your videos always broaden my horizons. Thank you.
To me, Tokyo Ghoul is more of like a metaphorical way of describing a kind hearted naive youngster living in Tokyo, being forced by society or poverty or gangster or etc. and becoming someone he has been hated all his life. And in this manga and anime, this tokyo community issue has been metaphorically substitute as becoming a cannibal ghoul. That's why it put so much effort on describing the taste of every food he taste almost as if this is a food/chef related manga.
@@JeusAlprime108 thank you for explanation, it take me several years to know meaning of this anime, now i understand why some character in this anime look like "depressed edgy emo kid" rejected by society.
yeah. he is out of common , here we got 2 or 3 like that but they are pure gold sigers that our countries should protect. the 1 i like is nahuel pennisi
Some might think this one isn't as perfect as the demon slayer one but they're so very different when so much of this song relies on him pushing and lying just on the edge of breaking his voice. I'm amazed he can pull it off this well like this all in one go
The way he sang the song was like he was literally crying, wailing, sobbing. The gasp in the end just syncs when you gasp while crying. Not me syncing my crying to the song, I’m just interpreting it that way…….😶
There are other songs off him, well from the band he is in (Ling tosite Sigure), that are also anime openings, from a show called psycho pass. In my opinion they are just as good as unravel, totally recommend. My fav would be abnormalize.
He has so many great songs also with the band, they have good songs. Check out another one of his first take performances, he plays his guitar in that one, it is a slower one, but so emotional.
Love the reactions man! :) TK has such a unique voice. There is another performance of his on THE FIRST TAKE with a song called Copy Light. I also recommend that one :)
I never clicked on a video so fast!! Tokyo Ghoul is one of my favorite animes of all time next to Death Note. The way TK embodies the main character with all his anguish and uncertainty of being half hunan half ghoul against his will. Ive never seen a singer portray a character so beautifully just from his voice alone. His voice gives me chills every time.
Tk is as amazing at singing as he is at guitar. Dude is just an impressive human being with equally impressive talents. You should also check out his band Ling Toshite Sigure. Very cool math rock/ improv craziness
Since you've already watched babymetal and they're amazing performance. It amazes me how many male fans attend and participate in singing for these little girls. I remember beside them I used to watch another good group of 2 girls and one unusual member(they'recalled ladybaby). Who could of thought it was a success. It blow my mind. That person left now ,replaced by two new girls. Well I suggest you watch their old songs first then their new version. Some people still like the new them.
i watched another channel react to this and they considered themselves "vocal coaches" and were calling him a "participating artist" calling his voice a joke and i just- my blood was boiling, yes they were allowed o react BUT THEY WERE SLANDERING HIM. "his voice is a joke" im mad right now... is 4am and i just- IM MAD
One of my favorite anime OSTs and videos from First Take. I've re-watched this video so many times, so I'm so glad you reacted to it! Also, not sure if you already saw, but he did another song, "Copy Light," on the same channel that was good
So happy you starter discover japanese music too.TK isgreat and his band Toshite sigure. Check them out too. If you live guitar. Maybe Miyavi or Marty Friedman would make your ears and soul sayisfied
Since you already watch this. You should his other video on First Take which Copy Light. In this video you see him playing the guitar while singing which still get me chills everytime i hear. Especially his lyrics. Have a nice day.
Yeah, I found a video where 3 people didn't like his voice, but I don't think they got it at all. There should be a wavering like on the verge of tears, there should be a brokenness that tries to find healing, there should be a burst of anger that questions the validity of the world and why it is the way it is. The voice can't have a perfection to it, there must be the imperfection of humanity portrayed against the gentle and beautiful notes of the music.
Without question, this is a brilliant version. But I wish there was a collaboration between him and the band 'Asterism', who in my opinion have delivered the best instrumental cover of this song so far. 3 young musicians with tons of talent who are specialized in metal instrumentals. There is also an MV of that cover on their channel that I can only highly recommend to you. _____________________ 【 _Till I return to dust I will stand alone in the dark with my pride at the end of time_ 】--- *Nemophila* - '徒花 -Adabana-' 💮
Honestly, I don't know who sings higher, Craig Owens of Chiodos/D.R.U.G.S or TK. It's a question I've been asking myself for a long while now. I actually think they both use the same screaming technique (Vocal Fry) as hearing TK scream it's incredibly similar, especially Craig's old stuff. There's some wild talent in the Japanese Metal scene, some of the deathcore and harsher metal is outright stomach turningly good. Mind you, I listen to just about everything, so I'm well versed in J-Pop, J-Rock, etc. So this is all coming from someone who's a massive fan, hah.
YES! My world’s are overlapping on your channel! This song is so badass! If you haven’t already I recommend reacting to Gurenge by LiSa (first take) it’s from the anime Demon Slayer!
talking about pitching voice you should listen the first take of fire by queen bee is just awesome and its the song for dororo opening also a very good anime ❤
I’m going to recommend him my favorite songs from TK. If there’s more song that I missed pls comment. I also want to know ur favorite pieces from TK? these are the recommendations: White silence Film a moment Memento Melt Copy light Super bloom Scratch Die meets hard (Kojii Nakamura remix) Reframe Contrast Dramatic slow motion Ear+f Subliminal Wonder palette In fiction Seacret cm Memories of sunset 24 reverse Last eye Phrase to phrase Addictive dancer Hitotsu Will ill Who’s whoFO Shinkiro
He sings another beautiful song which is called "White silence" YOU HAVE TO MAKE A REACTION OF IT! and try not to cry lol, here's the link: th-cam.com/video/JzH9AB3h3nY/w-d-xo.html
And speaking of vocalist scream, you should really try Nemophila if not already done, for example with this one : th-cam.com/video/26aMuahxz8c/w-d-xo.html You will be blown away. 🙂
Unravel is a great song, but isn't even one of his best. There's another TK performance in the same channel, the song is Copy Light. He also plays the guitar and shreds. You'll love it.
This song is so beautiful, even that insane scream was painfully beautiful. who would have know that something so harsh could be so pretty at the same time
Welcome to metalcore and Deathcore music
It fits the mood he is going for along with the instruments
Wanting to see their precious loved ones safe and untainted
While he suffers alone, stuck in the loop of a once pure and caring person into a savage who tears through anything and break his own morals.
And that scream would be the breaking desperation
Forever one of my favorites anime OP*. Love the pure rawness of emotion and voice control, this man is amazing.
not my fav OST but probably my fav opening song
It is op only not ost
And then came "Kaiju No. 8".
That's just TK s style , even when it's just his songs and not anime related he likes to crack up his voice intentionally, like strain his voice , he's done this throughout the years and I assume his voice got used up to going to the limit and over , the insane thing about TK is that he also plays the guitar at the same time when singing like that and screams , which is very impressive in my opinion, many say they don't like his voice but I think it's his style and fits perfectly , his range and technique is impressive and for me his voice is very beautiful, and sometimes it's like he cuts you with emotional waves when he's singing , I recommend you check this live performance of his . th-cam.com/video/tJK33w96-2k/w-d-xo.html

@@andhikasurya5902 np, I'm glad this comment age well and help somebody figuring something out too. 😁
yeah. he is out of common , here we got 2 or 3 like that but they are pure gold sigers that our countries should protect. the 1 i like is nahuel pennisi
I think the scream is so much more emotional in the unplugged version. This dude really has perfect control over his voice.
Absolutely one of the best anime and anime songs ever made!!! TK and Lisa are on a different level. Lisa's Homura first take is amazing as well.
You should check out Aimer's Us Live performance. Its composed and written by TK but sang by her. Her vocal range and her voice is just incredible.
Ugh. This song reminds me again of the time when I was so freaking in love with Kaneki in Tokyo ghoul era. This is one of my favorites anime OP.
Some might think this one isn't as perfect as the demon slayer one but they're so very different when so much of this song relies on him pushing and lying just on the edge of breaking his voice. I'm amazed he can pull it off this well like this all in one go
i believe this is quite better
TKs Band is "ling tosite shigure" and they do really insane stuff ^^ also Tks Guitar Skills remind me of Jack White, very unique.
The way he sang the song was like he was literally crying, wailing, sobbing. The gasp in the end just syncs when you gasp while crying.
Not me syncing my crying to the song, I’m just interpreting it that way…….😶
Check out his live concert version of this song. It’s incredible as well. His Copy Light first take is awesome too.
There are other songs off him, well from the band he is in (Ling tosite Sigure), that are also anime openings, from a show called psycho pass. In my opinion they are just as good as unravel, totally recommend. My fav would be abnormalize.
He has so many great songs also with the band, they have good songs. Check out another one of his first take performances, he plays his guitar in that one, it is a slower one, but so emotional.
On this channel he also did live his song Copy Light. that one is like power ballad.
My fav song by him is Signal though. fully recommended.
Love the reactions man! :) TK has such a unique voice. There is another performance of his on THE FIRST TAKE with a song called Copy Light. I also recommend that one :)
I absolutely love this version of the song, with just the piano and strings 🖤
I never clicked on a video so fast!! Tokyo Ghoul is one of my favorite animes of all time next to Death Note. The way TK embodies the main character with all his anguish and uncertainty of being half hunan half ghoul against his will. Ive never seen a singer portray a character so beautifully just from his voice alone. His voice gives me chills every time.
This song always makes me cry, even when I sing it.
Copy Light By TK also on First Take, and he does Katharsis another Tokyo Ghoul OP
TK performed a song called Copy light on The First Take and if i remember correctly it was also really good.
Thank you for great reaction!! Love from Japan💕
Tk is as amazing at singing as he is at guitar. Dude is just an impressive human being with equally impressive talents. You should also check out his band Ling Toshite Sigure. Very cool math rock/ improv craziness
after that 'unravelling the word' I could just hear that electric guitar & drum fills.
This is in the top list of the anime OST. Got me hyped when I saw the thumbnail.
Since you've already watched babymetal and they're amazing performance. It amazes me how many male fans attend and participate in singing for these little girls.
I remember beside them I used to watch another good group of 2 girls and one unusual member(they'recalled ladybaby). Who could of thought it was a success. It blow my mind. That person left now ,replaced by two new girls. Well I suggest you watch their old songs first then their new version. Some people still like the new them.
Try 'Abnormalize' from Ling Toshite Shigure too
i watched another channel react to this and they considered themselves "vocal coaches" and were calling him a "participating artist" calling his voice a joke and i just- my blood was boiling, yes they were allowed o react BUT THEY WERE SLANDERING HIM. "his voice is a joke" im mad right now... is 4am and i just- IM MAD
They left for like 9 months after that and just recently did a “re reaction”
One of my favorite anime OSTs and videos from First Take. I've re-watched this video so many times, so I'm so glad you reacted to it! Also, not sure if you already saw, but he did another song, "Copy Light," on the same channel that was good
If you're curious and have a minute, check out ling tosite sigure, TK's band, they're really good.
So happy you starter discover japanese music too.TK isgreat and his band Toshite sigure. Check them out too. If you live guitar. Maybe Miyavi or Marty Friedman would make your ears and soul sayisfied
This is my personal favorite first take.
Since you already watch this. You should his other video on First Take which Copy Light. In this video you see him playing the guitar while singing which still get me chills everytime i hear. Especially his lyrics. Have a nice day.
His song Signal (it was used as an opening for 91 days) is amazing too!
you should see the Home Take version it was insane!!!
My favorite anime 🤩 And amazing singer ☺️
For real though! It’s so good!!
You have good taste but manga better.
You really need to react to the song Katharsis by TK as well. You'll love it as well and it's literally one of my favorite songs pretty much ever.
Abnormalize and kartharsis are songs that you will probably enjoy, both from him and his band loved your reaction btw :)
If you like this you need to check out his band, ling tosite sigure, it'd probably be up your alley even more
Yes he has another song called Copy Light on First Take
you should ract to Babymetal Arkadia and Katharsis by TK, you'll love them. Also love the reactions
Lately you've been reacting to a lot of my favorite groups and I love it 🥰
6:02 The part when he sing "don't forget" repeatedly I really love it.
You should react to TK from Ling Tosite sigure copy light first take version
Yeah, I found a video where 3 people didn't like his voice, but I don't think they got it at all. There should be a wavering like on the verge of tears, there should be a brokenness that tries to find healing, there should be a burst of anger that questions the validity of the world and why it is the way it is. The voice can't have a perfection to it, there must be the imperfection of humanity portrayed against the gentle and beautiful notes of the music.
Fits the show so well too love this song ❤
Es lo más Unravel sobre todo en Tokyo-ghoul 🔥🎶
If you like this song, I recommend you check Zhou Shen’s version as well, you will also find that amazing
!!
I will always love this song. First time I heard it, I had to download it
I’ve seen one episode and this op well over a dozen times before I even saw it . This theme is known far and wide
BRO Tifa theme in the Background! I wanted just the reaction but you earned my subscription
you should react to 91 days opening "signal" its also from tk
I freaking love your reaction!
He actually always sings like that. This song is no exception because of the main character
I hope you'll check out co shu nie, a math rock band, i highly recommend their performance on first take fes (song: zettai zetsumei)
Katheris is also from tk you can listen to it
I LOVE IT!!!!!!!😍😍😍😍
Without question, this is a brilliant version. But I wish there was a collaboration between him and the band 'Asterism', who in my opinion have delivered the best instrumental cover of this song so far. 3 young musicians with tons of talent who are specialized in metal instrumentals. There is also an MV of that cover on their channel that I can only highly recommend to you.

Do you mind to react to gurenge by lisa ? I think you will like it
You gotta big head

Can you react to AoT 7th opening song. The Rumbling by SiM.
Si tan solo supiera que dice el que reacciona :'v
Why are you reacting to the piano version?
And speaking of vocalist scream, you should really try Nemophila if not already done, for example with this one : th-cam.com/video/26aMuahxz8c/w-d-xo.html
You will be blown away. 🙂
100
TK has a high pitch voice. Kpop fans hate this type of male voice.
K pop was inspired by j pop lol
Copylight one take
Unravel is a great song, but isn't even one of his best. There's another TK performance in the same channel, the song is Copy Light. He also plays the guitar and shreds. You'll love it.
