I never realised Clannad was a starter/nostalgic anime to others too. As a kid I kept my love for anime quiet because no one else shared the interest. 17 years later and anime is everywhere. It’s amazing. I wish I could show my younger self. To know that so many people loved and were watching Clannad at the same time I was erases the loneliness I felt back then. Anime is a great friend to so many of us. Thanks Animenz
@@DrevenSP Angel beats was first also for me besides shaman king/naruto/pokemon that was in TV. Like proper anime. I went to Angel beats then second was Clannad in 2010 if i remember correctly.
Clannad was the first anime series that i got into and after that was Clannad After Story. Both endings made me flood my bedroom in tears. Now, I practically live on anime so thank you, Clannad!!!
I loved Clannad and Clannad After story, i also watched Kanon . Have you amy recommendations for similar animes, mainly ones with similar art style as Clannad. I cannot stand the art style thats in Dragonball z , or character's who dont show emotions through their facial expressions
When I was pregnant with my son I would listen to this in hopes he would enjoy it. Sadly I'm in the hospital without my son ( had a fetus demise). Even if it makes me sad it was our bonding moment. I'll treasure those few moments I had with him and one day listening to this won't make me break down.
Thank you for your well wishes everyone. I have a pleasant update. I ended up having a precious baby boy named Xander. He will be two in January and when we visit his older brother Dante’s grave I have played this song for him on multiple occasions. This will forever be our thing, till my last breath. I love my son who walks next to me, and I love my son who flys over us. And yes I am an anime Mom xD
One of the earliest earliest anime I had ever watched. Clannad was the second, followed by Kanon being the third. Back then, I remembered these 2 anime(s) gave me a depression feel after finishing it. It wasn't a bad thing, more like a "So good that it still sticks to my heart" after watching it. Too bad my friends all say Clannad has crappy animation.. WHY!! ;_; It's masterpiece man :D Very nice medley Animenz :D Indeed this piano gives off a nice singing voice in contrast to the bass :)
I completely understand what you mean by the depression feel. The anime just makes you so emotional and feely that it feels like you're trapped inside the anime's emotional journey and you just can't snap out of it ;-;
Ahh.. Clannad After story is the ONLY anime that has made me genuinely cried. I've had watched many sad animes including Air and Kanon but when i watched Clannad it hit right in the Kokoro lol. I was depressed for like a 1-2months! but there were lessons learnt from that anime. I will never forget it.. Don't think any anime will ever make me sad as Clannad..
Andre Abc Haha I have watched Your Lie in April. Finished it few days ago. It was a pretty good show. It did get somewhat of the feels.. but not much as intense as clannad. The music is awesome as well!
Kyoani, creators of some of the greatest anime series to date, Clannad after story, hibike euphonium, hyouka, air, kanon, haruhi and the like: thank you for giving me meaning, thank you for giving me hope in life. #rip #prayforkyoani
One part of me wants to go to the piano and learn this. But the other part of me wants to sit here and listen to this forever! The struggle is real! :D
I love your arrangement of Tori no Uta so much… especially the beautiful change in dynamics from 2:18-the gentle, delicate melody of the left hand accompaniment is extraordinarily pleasing to the ears. I had to come back to this video ‘cause of nostalgia, and this is just making me very emotional. Amazing. This entire medley is amazing.
Your left hand sounds like the water, calm and relaxed. Your right hand is like thunder, full with power. Combined they create a coherent harmony in which I could dream away, to another dimension.
That is a bold statement. I do agree that for most people, watching kanon would be a better option, especially for those unfamiliar with anime or the genre; however, with Clannad Afterstory, Clannad has longevity over Kanon and when tragedy occurs it is more damaging.
crying. you play so beautifully. watching kanon for the first time right now and i really loved last regrets from the first time i heard it. one day i will teach myself to play again.
So much to learn... So little time... Thank you so much for posting all these videos with all these sheets though in all seriousness. I've been playing piano for 12 years out of the 16 of my life and it always warms my heart when I know there are so many others out there who share my love for music. Those who are way better than me and whom I can only strive to catch up to one day, like you, playing these wonderful pieces, are the reason I keep playing. So one day, I can maybe make others feel the same way you make me feel when I listen to pieces like this.
This has got to be my most favorite musical piece, and on piano it just hits every emotional spot. I love this song and I'd die forever happy if I could play it like he does :'|
Sara Houbertz Anime Pianist Atomu-kun read the description. It is very likely that there will not be such a medley. The story of this medley is enough reason to that topic.
well its what he wants to play and i don't want him to stress out over a deadline or expectation. play what songs he loves the most, whether it be arranged already or improvised on the spot.
Piano Around the World I wish I could but it requires previous videos that have been uploaded for a "best hits" medley to happen. Also thank you for suggesting I should do one!
Still the best and my most favorite Animenz cover song/series of songs. This is my go to song whenever I feel like the weight of the world presses down on me and when I find myself in the darkest inescapable depths. This song lifts me back to the surface every single time. Thank you Animenz for this masterpiece.
I come back to this video often. The music from these anime’s give me happiness and meaning to my soul. I remember sobbing my eyes out the first time I watch Clannad and Kanon. Beautiful pieces of art.
Thank you Animenz, you've been the first one to inspire me to actually want to play piano. I used to take formal lessons, but I was quickly bored with how simple the songs were and constrictive the music I would play would be. You opened my eyes to the arrangements of anime music, which I have always loved the sound and chord progressions.
This 5 year journey to transcribe these timeless openings was completed in the best possible way. My heart strings were pulled to and fro. This transcription truly brought out many strong and deep emotions. It encompasses all the things that we all hold dear to us, all the reasons why we want to share the beauty of anime with the world. A masterpiece.
Wow. What a masterpiece. All the motifs are executed perfectly, and each melody seamlessly melds together with one another. Even though the melodies are simple on their own, each individual voice sings out to create even more layers. It must have been very anguishing to be stuck on the original version and not being able to find the inspiration to progress, but even in the darkest moments that we as composers and artists face, all it takes is one tiny light to spark new life and new ideas in a piece. Even if it's not what you initially envisioned, you can still be immensely proud of the end product. Congratulations on finishing this beautiful medley! It is truly a masterpiece.
Every once a while I will come back to listen to this medley. I will start to reminisce about those anime series that I watch the first time round. The joy, the pain at that moment came flowing back to me yet again.
Your dedication to making the best of the songs you cherish is truly stunning. You are an artistic genius. You are. You are one of very few pianists who can transcribe not only compositions of the highest quality, but your heartfelt emotions. I read the stories behind your transcriptions and I can't help but admire your drive and persistence. You delivered exceptionally well in this medley. There might be dark times in your life, but rest assured, you are the best at what you do. Keep up the majestic work. We are proud of you.
These were the first three anime I ever watched starting with Kanon, Clannad, Air in that order. It is the best decision I could have ever made. The nostalgia hit me hard when I listened to this video. This is true art that I will remember for probably all my life. :)
I know how you feel but have you any idea how hard unravel is when played right? His version is fucking awesome considering it is really an electronic, metal, punk and classic crossover!
ik what ur saying the leaps and arpeggios are godly but I like this video of his 1st and his Nagi no asukara 2nd because its so relaxing they embody the essence of modern classics
I agree with madlife that this song has a hit in the emotions... But mehh.. everyone has their opinions. Unravel is a different type of “music”. Lets say that the point is.. Animenz if fkin awesome! 😎👍👌
Even the hardest moment in life might later be a sweet memory. Time moves on, waiting for no one. Hearing these melodies once again after so many years makes me feel old. Its just unfair how I am turning old but these songs still feel fresh.
Tori no Uta is so beautifully arranged! Thank you Animenz-sensei. I got to learn of this OP to air through this arrangement of yours. Happy to say I'm hooked to it, thanks to this lovely arrangement!
Clannad is the first anime who taught me what is life. It made me cried a ton and I'm not who i am today if isn't for clannad. I really love Toki wo kizamu uta, dango daikazuko, and roaring tides 2
Clannad, Air, and Kanon all hit close for me. When I was around 8-9, the Clannad scenes with Tomoya and his father especially made me cry. Those scenes were the ones that made me cry, because they reminded me of my father, and how I don't see him very often with him being in the military.
Words really can't express how emotional this made me. I recently booted up the Kanon VN again after 5+ years and I never expected how much it still touches me after all this time. These stories really hold such a special place in my heart and I can't wait to re-explore them again.
Honestly I thought piano was gonna sound weird for anime theme songs, but this is sooo beautiful (god there is no emoji that can express my feels) Thank you
Man, that sweeping left hand throughout Tori no Uta is incredible... You weren't kidding when you said it's technically difficult All of Toki was incredible, with the middle voices, left hand melody, and combining the two themes :O Also, nice pink dango :P
congratulations, its been three years since I watched all of Clannad and I took me a year and a half to get over it and here you are bringing me feels back.
I was totally unprepared for the flood of emotion when the Clannad: After D Story opening song hit me. That anime, along with both versions of Fruits Basket, continues to stick with me every day I walk this earth. One day, I won't be here to walk anymore, but these memories will be by my side forever.
That you are willing to share the fruits of your hard work with the public is something that demonstrates your generosity and true love of music. I am so grateful for your wonderful sheet music.
These 3 visual novels will always be ingrained into my memories. Just hearing these songs fills me with a deep melancholy that i can't really describe.
Listening to this is so inspirational. I often forget that this right here is the dream. I've always dreamed of doing amazing things such as being able to play the piano as well as Animenz and be able to play any song I want whenever I feel the mood. But I realize that for the first time, I dream of doing something that is completely possible for me. If I just keep at it and keep on playing, one day I will be able to play just as well . Hearing those Clannad medleys really brings back all those wonderful feelings I had experienced and will never forget. Thank you Animenz for remaining as an inspiration for me and for many others. It's always good to have someone you want to catch up to :)
I don't have words for this. It made me break down in tears and I'm not the type of person that does things like that. Incredible. The third movement hit he so hard it legitimately took my breath away.
Thank you for not just uploading the video but also sharing your story in the summary. Upon hearing your work and knowing your story, I am profoundly inspired. Slowly and slowly, I have been learning the piano, and while I may only be able to play a few measures, Dango Daikozoku was the inspiration behind my decision to learn. Despite the frustrations of learning a new craft, I am now even more motivated to improve, and your videos and stories give me that push. Thank you for your passion and dedication.
My very first 3 anime I've watched: Kanon, Clannad, Air. After them, I fell in love with music and anime. I've seen over 7290 episodes by now and still watching ;). Love your music vids.
You, dear sir, are an incredible pianist and a wonderful inspiration to those who want to learn how to play, including myself! Thank you for this incredible piece of quality music! One thing, I am not criticizing, but the song at the end wasn't actually Dango Daikazoku (Dango Daikazoku happens to be a song that they created by using the tune to Nagisa's theme), it was Nagisa's warmly arranged piano theme - known as Nagisa warm piano arrangement. But, you probably already knew that. Just making sure others don't get confused and get frustrated when they can't find that version. :)
I'm 20 now, but I remember watching this video when I was around 15 or 16 wanting to be able to play like this SO BADLY. I never did end up learning, but I still dream about being able to do this 😍
I can't believe I read all the stuff in the description. I never knew that creating an anime sheet music was that difficult, which only makes me admire Animenz even more. So beautiful
Listening to this really makes me reflect, I'm in highschool and during my childhood I only spoke to people during school barely, after school I would hide away in my room I did this up until 6th grade when a bully from 4th grade who lived a few doors down would walk past my house and occasionally hang out. I actually hung out with him everyday until he moved, but because of him I started to get out more and experience my childhood. These songs make me regret everything up until then. These anime and songs mean a lot to me.
I was expecting you to put a little busters song too since it was also from key. but it sounds great anyway , and yeah you definitely lied about this to be an easy piece lolol btw the piano sounds really great ! I hope you can record more on this piano in the future , yet I still wonder how you will do once you graduate from the conservatory ... ;_; Anyway time to listen it countless times again and cry in the corner ...
***** What if you actually really should do so ? I mean I think a lot of people are willing to help you to get a good piano setup (well the price is still pretty high lol) but at least that would definitely help you
***** I honestly think your fans would be very open to the idea. You have given us sheets for 5 years now O.o... without even asking for anything in return really. Kyle is funding a grand piano via twitch and Theister is funding for more open reasons but still funding none the less. I think it be worth a try whats the worst that can happen? it does not work and you look for another way! The only problem would be you would need to fund the great rooms you play in as well! Regardless I am so very happy to see this sheet, everything else will be put on hold now! Keep up the crazy good work man!
***** Isn't Kyle Landry doing pretty much exactly that? He started asking for donations so he could buy a Steinway, so it's not out of the question. I think you have a loyal enough fanbase that people would actually be willing to donate. Especially if you started streaming, or something of the sort.
Your commitment for the transcription really shows a lot about you as a pianist and an artist. I'm happy there's someone like you on youtube. Keep on making us all cry (but for good reasons)
Hearing what composing this work meant to you makes me want to play it so much more. To play something someone has put his heart and soul into is the greatest experience for any musician.
Whenever I think of Autumn, this piano piece in particular plays in my head. How wonderful this medley is, it has been there for me for so many years and I absolutely adore it.
This is so so so amazing... heaven to my ears... this was the 2nd or third anime I ever watched and has been my favorite ever since. I’ll always remember this anime, I love this anime so much, the sadness, the happiness and the funniness is very heartwarming... I love clannad and clannad after story😢❤️
+Yukiteru Amano Funny story, I came back to listen to this again as I finally got around to watching Clannad, and am now in Afterstory. I took a look at the description, and lo-and-behold I had thumbed this beauty down. Those onion ninja's man, they strike when you least expect it. Gotta watch out
Air, Kanon, Clannad are anime works that have definitely changed my life. In addition, Jun Maeda's music in the works is wonderful music that pierces the heart.
Kanon and Clannad's(both seasons) openings are some of my all time favorite anime openings and hearing them played together so beautifully is astounding! Marvelous job!!
I've watched all 3 and although they aren't vivid in my memories,the medley still stirred up a whirlpool of unwanted emotions from the second to started playing to the end. Good job sir.

To know that so many people loved and were watching Clannad at the same time I was erases the loneliness I felt back then. Anime is a great friend to so many of us. Thanks Animenz
I understand your pain.
You have to play the VN if you hold this much emotion towards it. I guarantee you will cry twice as much, it's such a moving experience.
Every thing jun maeda makes is a masterpeace im saying this as im on my 350 rewatch of clannad

I completely understand what you mean by the depression feel. The anime just makes you so emotional and feely that it feels like you're trapped inside the anime's emotional journey and you just can't snap out of it ;-;
Not to say that the animation is crappy, but it wasn't that nice so I couldn't take it seriously because their faces are kinda funny

That is a bold statement. I do agree that for most people, watching kanon would be a better option, especially for those unfamiliar with anime or the genre; however, with Clannad Afterstory, Clannad has longevity over Kanon and when tragedy occurs it is more damaging.

Kanon is so underrated in my opinion, one of my favorites. Clannad will always be my favorite, but Kanon is close
i watched it because a friend recommended it to me.. definitely underrated!
Kanon means more to me.
I watched Kanon after Clannad, and I liked it much more
underrated just because you watched it recently.. when kanon first release "uguu" is phenomenal on internet..
Никита Рерих Same for me! Kanon is so much more atmospheric than Clannad!
This is bringing back the feels from when I watched Clannad... Honestly the best anime ever imo.

My emotions build up with the build up starting at 8:27
Same
Just the sound of tomoya screaming nagisas name when she dies
+gil wolf please don't bring those tear filled memories back I think I might cry
;-;
+Kaneki Ken sorryyy xc
Just thinking about Air gets me in such a feelsy mood
what about kanon? ~uguu. T_T
+Matthew R All of them
+biesteboy1234 Gao >.
Same I was wondering why nobody mentioned tori no uta
SAME, omg, just looking at the artworks from the anime got me goose bumps all over
These were the first three anime I ever watched starting with Kanon, Clannad, Air in that order. It is the best decision I could have ever made. The nostalgia hit me hard when I listened to this video. This is true art that I will remember for probably all my life. :)
This is too beautiful, I have been listening this for over 5 years. :)
8:50 The moment my feels break ;_;
Chris Yu hey man
Omg yes so much :'(
Oh god ! T-T
8:28 8:51 the best part :)
Chris Yu ... "ANPAN!!!"
When I look back at it, this is better than Unravel....THIS IS ANIMENZ BEST VIDEO AND THE BEST FUCKING VIDEO ON THE INTERNET BY FAR!
It gave me motivation to play on my old piano again
I know how you feel but have you any idea how hard unravel is when played right? His version is fucking awesome considering it is really an electronic, metal, punk and classic crossover!
ik what ur saying the leaps and arpeggios are godly but I like this video of his 1st and his Nagi no asukara 2nd because its so relaxing they embody the essence of modern classics
Harder to play doesnt mean its better..
I agree with madlife that this song has a hit in the emotions... But mehh.. everyone has their opinions. Unravel is a different type of “music”. Lets say that the point is.. Animenz if fkin awesome! 😎👍👌
Even the hardest moment in life might later be a sweet memory. Time moves on, waiting for no one. Hearing these melodies once again after so many years makes me feel old. Its just unfair how I am turning old but these songs still feel fresh.
Tori no Uta is so beautifully arranged! Thank you Animenz-sensei. I got to learn of this OP to air through this arrangement of yours. Happy to say I'm hooked to it, thanks to this lovely arrangement!
Key作品、本当に泣けるよ😢
3 of the most beautiful animes I've seen ever. Great performance, that was great to hear.
3:13 BY FARRRR!!! The best piano cover of Last Regrets. I'm hurting... It's so great!!!!! I love you so much Animenz. x,.x
Animenz, thank you so much for making such beautiful arrangements of songs that I love. I am forever grateful for you existing in this world.
The greatest anime pianist of all times spends 5 years to finish the key music @@
And it make me sink down to the bottom of feeling
Cannot express how much I love this song. Please leave this up forever.
Beautiful as always ;(
His piano playing is amazing I don't think you should expect anything different. :D
Clannad: After Story ❤️
Nagisa forever in our hearts ❤️
Clannad is the first anime who taught me what is life. It made me cried a ton and I'm not who i am today if isn't for clannad. I really love Toki wo kizamu uta, dango daikazuko, and roaring tides 2
Clannad, Air, and Kanon all hit close for me. When I was around 8-9, the Clannad scenes with Tomoya and his father especially made me cry. Those scenes were the ones that made me cry, because they reminded me of my father, and how I don't see him very often with him being in the military.
Words really can't express how emotional this made me. I recently booted up the Kanon VN again after 5+ years and I never expected how much it still touches me after all this time. These stories really hold such a special place in my heart and I can't wait to re-explore them again.
Honestly I thought piano was gonna sound weird for anime theme songs, but this is sooo beautiful (god there is no emoji that can express my feels)
Thank you
🐲🐉
Man, that sweeping left hand throughout Tori no Uta is incredible... You weren't kidding when you said it's technically difficult
All of Toki was incredible, with the middle voices, left hand melody, and combining the two themes :O
Also, nice pink dango :P
2024, anyone still listening?
Listen everyday
This, My dearest (10th anniversary), and sincerely are always the top on my piano playlist. Honorable mentions WILL, Avid, and sparkle
Yes
愚問だな聞いてるにきまってるだろ
Here
congratulations, its been three years since I watched all of Clannad and I took me a year and a half to get over it and here you are bringing me feels back.
This is so beautiful, you sir, have so much talent. Your rendition of Tori No Uta left me SPEECHLESS. I loved the medley. Thank you so much for this.
Absolutely beautiful performance, sir. No other words.
Por Dios...esto es simplemente hermoso 💙 va para mi lista de reproducción ✨
I was totally unprepared for the flood of emotion when the Clannad: After D
Story opening song hit me. That anime, along with both versions of Fruits Basket, continues to stick with me every day I walk this earth. One day, I won't be here to walk anymore, but these memories will be by my side forever.
That you are willing to share the fruits of your hard work with the public is something that demonstrates your generosity and true love of music. I am so grateful for your wonderful sheet music.
These 3 visual novels will always be ingrained into my memories. Just hearing these songs fills me with a deep melancholy that i can't really describe.
聞いててとても心地が良いです！
Listening to this is so inspirational. I often forget that this right here is the dream. I've always dreamed of doing amazing things such as being able to play the piano as well as Animenz and be able to play any song I want whenever I feel the mood.
But I realize that for the first time, I dream of doing something that is completely possible for me. If I just keep at it and keep on playing, one day I will be able to play just as well . Hearing those Clannad medleys really brings back all those wonderful feelings I had experienced and will never forget.
Thank you Animenz for remaining as an inspiration for me and for many others. It's always good to have someone you want to catch up to :)
Very well said, I feel the same way.
Clannad was really special to me, it helped me with a depression. RIP to the animators who died in that fire.
I don't have words for this. It made me break down in tears and I'm not the type of person that does things like that. Incredible. The third movement hit he so hard it legitimately took my breath away.
Each time I go over it, tears drop on the same scenes, with the same melodies…CLANNAD has always been the ultimate work in my mind, CLANNAD Saikou！
最喜欢的一个视频，陪我度过了无数时光
CLANNADは世界の、CLANNADを見た人の世界を変えた、そしてこれからもずっと世界を変える為に後世に受け継いでいかなければならない存在である｡
保証しよう｡
自分の人生を変えた作品だから言えるんだ
木村悠真 自分も同感です。身体の弱い彼女がいて数年前に親父がリストラにあって精神的なショックで今も引きこもってる。
智也と境遇が似ていて凄く感情移入できます。
この動画の音色を聴くだけで涙があふれて
that left hit was so amazing 7:18
Thank you for not just uploading the video but also sharing your story in the summary. Upon hearing your work and knowing your story, I am profoundly inspired. Slowly and slowly, I have been learning the piano, and while I may only be able to play a few measures, Dango Daikozoku was the inspiration behind my decision to learn. Despite the frustrations of learning a new craft, I am now even more motivated to improve, and your videos and stories give me that push. Thank you for your passion and dedication.
My very first 3 anime I've watched: Kanon, Clannad, Air. After them, I fell in love with music and anime. I've seen over 7290 episodes by now and still watching ;). Love your music vids.
@Danielle Blagsvedt I've seen all of it. Also, I have 100% completion on Clannad visual novel
6:26 that same pit in my chest came back and its been at least 7 or 8 years since i watched this anime
You, dear sir, are an incredible pianist and a wonderful inspiration to those who want to learn how to play, including myself! Thank you for this incredible piece of quality music!
One thing, I am not criticizing, but the song at the end wasn't actually Dango Daikazoku (Dango Daikazoku happens to be a song that they created by using the tune to Nagisa's theme), it was Nagisa's warmly arranged piano theme - known as Nagisa warm piano arrangement. But, you probably already knew that. Just making sure others don't get confused and get frustrated when they can't find that version. :)
I'm 20 now, but I remember watching this video when I was around 15 or 16 wanting to be able to play like this SO BADLY. I never did end up learning, but I still dream about being able to do this 😍
I can't believe I read all the stuff in the description. I never knew that creating an anime sheet music was that difficult, which only makes me admire Animenz even more. So beautiful
Listening to this really makes me reflect, I'm in highschool and during my childhood I only spoke to people during school barely, after school I would hide away in my room I did this up until 6th grade when a bully from 4th grade who lived a few doors down would walk past my house and occasionally hang out. I actually hung out with him everyday until he moved, but because of him I started to get out more and experience my childhood. These songs make me regret everything up until then. These anime and songs mean a lot to me.
3:13 Last Regrets (Kanon 2006) until 5:56 is The best part of emotion feel, very deep
I was expecting you to put a little busters song too since it was also from key.
but it sounds great anyway , and yeah you definitely lied about this to be an easy piece lolol
btw the piano sounds really great ! I hope you can record more on this piano in the future , yet I still wonder how you will do once you graduate from the conservatory ... ;_;
Anyway time to listen it countless times again and cry in the corner ...
Pianonime how about I start a kickstarter, so people can crowdfund me a steinway grand, so I can record in the future whenever I want? lololol
***** What if you actually really should do so ? I mean I think a lot of people are willing to help you to get a good piano setup (well the price is still pretty high lol) but at least that would definitely help you
I wouldn't mind donating it, and I think you should be sponsored by Steinway since you've been promoting it for years already lol
***** I honestly think your fans would be very open to the idea. You have given us sheets for 5 years now O.o... without even asking for anything in return really.
Kyle is funding a grand piano via twitch and Theister is funding for more open reasons but still funding none the less. I think it be worth a try whats the worst that can happen? it does not work and you look for another way!
The only problem would be you would need to fund the great rooms you play in as well!
Regardless I am so very happy to see this sheet, everything else will be put on hold now! Keep up the crazy good work man!
***** Isn't Kyle Landry doing pretty much exactly that? He started asking for donations so he could buy a Steinway, so it's not out of the question. I think you have a loyal enough fanbase that people would actually be willing to donate. Especially if you started streaming, or something of the sort.
This medley, alongside with Nagi no Asukara medley just hits hard. And I haven’t even watched the anime yet for both the medleys
Your commitment for the transcription really shows a lot about you as a pianist and an artist. I'm happy there's someone like you on youtube. Keep on making us all cry (but for good reasons)
Hearing what composing this work meant to you makes me want to play it so much more. To play something someone has put his heart and soul into is the greatest experience for any musician.
コメント欄見ると世界を通して評価されてるんですね。
よかった。
日本人いて良かった
who else got the feels when the song transitioned to after story?
Clannad music = goosebumps + nostalgic + tear
Whenever I think of Autumn, this piano piece in particular plays in my head. How wonderful this medley is, it has been there for me for so many years and I absolutely adore it.
This is so so so amazing... heaven to my ears... this was the 2nd or third anime I ever watched and has been my favorite ever since. I’ll always remember this anime, I love this anime so much, the sadness, the happiness and the funniness is very heartwarming... I love clannad and clannad after story😢❤️
Who could dislike this video?
Blurry eyes full of tears
+Yukiteru Amano Funny story, I came back to listen to this again as I finally got around to watching Clannad, and am now in Afterstory. I took a look at the description, and lo-and-behold I had thumbed this beauty down. Those onion ninja's man, they strike when you least expect it. Gotta watch out
They thought it said disilike :)
+Juan Narvaez word of warning, Afterstory will break you and turn you into an emotional wreck
agreed. destroyed me.
Now, that is nostalgia. I remember the time when these are the only titles people would ever recommend whenever someone asks for tearjerkers.
The best of their genre. Now there's a lot more stuff for sure. Heh I don't really watch anymore so I wouldn't know. Any stuff you like these days?
Air, Kanon, Clannad are anime works that have definitely changed my life. In addition, Jun Maeda's music in the works is wonderful music that pierces the heart.
Kanon and Clannad's(both seasons) openings are some of my all time favorite anime openings and hearing them played together so beautifully is astounding! Marvelous job!!
I've watched all 3 and although they aren't vivid in my memories,the medley still stirred up a whirlpool of unwanted emotions from the second to started playing to the end. Good job sir.
Serge884 same I watched these shows when I was 12 or something and I’m 18 now but this made me so emotional it was amazing
