Ikr lol 😆 ... I actually haven't started this piece yet Because of the difficulty. Currently working on a few of Theishters arrangements (Crossing Field and Snow Fairy). Also mostly because I'm new to sheet music and learning more every day (been studying sheet music for about 6months) but I've been self taught since August 2018.
@Healeon honestly man just go for it, the arpeggios aren't that hard, if you practice enough you can surely do it (and if you can't, the piece is absolutely beautiful without the arpeggios too) ^^
You finally recorded Brave Shine! Yeah~ Life's too short to be depressed. Have fun and live strong. Glad to have you back. *Theishter's comment gives you determination* hahaha :3
+Theishter - Anime on Piano Hey man, you know what would fill me with determination? If you did some Undertale songs! May I recomend "Megalovania", "Hopes and Dreams", "Spear of Justice" and "Death by Glamour".
+Theishter - Anime on Piano Hi theishter and animenz, i have small request for you two if u could O:)-> pls cover songs from Kagerou Project aka Mekakucity Actor. it's up to u which song or version (tbh i prefer IA's version :3) Thx be4 :D PS: i love both covers for brave shine from you two
+Theishter - Anime on Piano Like to say this is definitely one of your better covers. Like the crescendo into the chorus, it really gives the song back some of the weight it loses in the transition to one instrument.
Also, the piano playing is so intense that the camera stand keeps shaking giving it a feel that every time you bang the keys (the keys... the keys...) it feels like an earthquake! ... No... I did not think of Saitama playing piano... he'd wreck it.
I am looking for easy piano sheets, and youtube gave me this.... Damn, I think its so easy even a PhD in piano would take some time mastering this piece.
it took like 10 days to play entire piece decently except 4:26-4:36 and 4:53-5:04. I've been stuck in those two parts for about 3 months now and now my school started lol I still can't play them decently
Dude you are so totally awesome, never forget that. It's because of you that I continue to play the piano. Your music inspires so many people. I recently watched Your Lie in April and it reminded me the reason we play music is, at its core, because it is a part of us. So who cares how technically brilliant the piece is? You put your heart and soul into each performance, and it rings loud and clear in each video. Thanks for making these arrangements, each one is like a journey for the heart. Can't wait to go on more!
I definetly agree with what you said... every piece animenz created has that emotion which is necessary for it to become "complete" or deemed as a masterpiece. 💕 The emotion of the song/music (or the artist's own enterpretation) is major recipe for a great piece. 😁 (sorry for my english😅)
+Harry Roberts (ReadTomes) OMG BRO, I USE TO WATCH YOU WAYYYYYY BACK, you use to do book reviews, seems you've moved on to anime-related content. Good stuff man, keep up the good work!
Came back to listen to this masterpiece after todays livestream. Really loved it! Thank you for the amazing music and the emotions it stimulates. You give me the energy and a goal to pick up playing the piano again!
Thank you so much for taking the time to do these. Both this and your cover of the Bakemonogatari ED brought me to tears. I can't explain how grateful I am to people who create these things for the enjoyment of others. Thank you thank you thank you.
OH. MY. GOD. I know it's been 6 years since you uploaded this so the chances of you reading this are close to 0. I got atached to this piece the first time I heard it in Fate but this was a whole new experience. There not a single time I dont have a salad made out of my feelings every time I listen to this. I don't even know how to put into words how I feel but it's something magical. I've been playing this on loop for the past hour and it still conveys the same feelings. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for taking the time to learn and share this masterpiece. Cheers from Argentina!
@FormP no problem! I appreciate you taking your time to point out my wrongdoings, I thank you for your consideration. And don’t worry I don’t mind the language you used😅
Absolutely beautiful, amazing work... Thank you for all the Piano arrangements you've made, they're all amazing and I loved this one... Really put your heart in to the piece.
This is my favorite anime opening. I'm speechless. You (once again) made a song that I loved into something even deeper than a good story line and great characters (RIP Lancer). I took this arrangement to heart and enjoyed every second. All your hard work for this piece showed and paid off and I appreciate it. My ears were truly blessed today. Now excuse me, while I smash the replay button.
Gosh, you're waking emotions. That piece of music is already touching on its own, yet you made it just... perfect. Seriously, I don't know words for that.
Just listening to this, i never wouldve guessed you had trouble with the arrangement. As amazing of a song as Brave Shine is, this rendition is simply beautiful. It more than does justice to the song.
There are plenty of other arrangements of this song. But yours one seriously sounds unique and have soul in it ;w; Especially I love this beginning...OMFG so beautiful
When I first felt the feels in Anime and Visual Novels, I already died once. But my will of watching and reading...they all granted me courage for my own majestic, sorrowful yet unyielding brave shine that illuminates the darkness within me, for you Animenz, truly play two existence, the piano, and my heart....
It's incredible that this arrangement and interpretation goes beyond just "Brave Shine", the track. It captures the "Brave Shine" of the Fate series as a whole. And that's beautiful.
This is so beautiful I wanna cry 😍😭 your piano skills are goals and thank you so much for uploading vids of your covers and making music sheets 🙌 Stay awesome 👍
It's beyond my level to distinguish the qualities of your arrangements, but I definitely could hear your soul in this one. As a personality develops over time, the way in which we do things changes as well and I would by no means say that you've reached your peak or lost your quality. As you said this arrangement had all of your soul in it. You're stressing what's essential - just shifting the emphasis from technique to soul. That's a remarkable achievement. Every change in your style is a step forward and a reason to be proud. Not many of us would ever be disappointed in you - that's my guess at least.
Du inspirierst mich nicht nur musikalisch sondern wegen dir habe ich auch mit Animes angefangen, und es war eine der bessten Entscheidungen meines Lebens. Vielen Dank für die Arbeit die in jedem einzelnen Stück steckt. Mach weiter so, wir stehen hinter dir :)
When ever I feel like I'm losing motivation for playing and arranging piano pieces, I just come to your channel and watch your videos, works every time : ' )
Un grand merci à Animenz d'avoir fait un cover de cette chanson magnifique ^^ Tout ça me donne envie de revoir Fate Stay Night Unlimited Blade Works, ah là là.... :)
years later now, reading the description of how you were anxious that you've reached your peak puts a smile on my face :) Amazing how you clearly broke through self-doubt and have advanced incredibly further since then! Thank you for being inspiring.
I dont know how to express my feeling, but what I can imagine after listening this song is a dark blue sky before the sunrise with tiny sunshine, air smell like wet ,fresh and cold. That was amazing
So good man! I woke up and immediately clicked this link when I saw it. Arrangement skills are important but I think what matters is the music is great. And your music is awesome :D
I don't know anything about piano technique, and very little about music theory and arrangement, so I can't comment on that. But in terms of feel and power, this is by far the best performance out of all your anime theme versions I've heard. Everything about it oozes "Brave Shine". You managed to capture the meaning of the song, and convey it in its barest, rawest form. Everytime that fast (arpeggio?) pattern hits, I can't help but air guitar to it. This captures and portrays everything that's awesome about Fate. Thank you for this.
I was feeling really down and depressed for a long time. Seeing your strength despite your life, hearing this piece and seeing your story... It gives me hope. Sure, I got it bad, I fell down real hard. But I can get back up. Hearing this song brought tears to my eyes, but also gave me something. A yearning. Desire. I just need to get up off my ass and find out what it is I want. I want to shine, and this might actually help me. Thank you.
It's not always easy to deliver what fans expect from you and with every video the expectations rises but I'm sure many fans here are loyal. If your future videos aren't as technical or as difficult... people will still enjoy them :3 They're just awesome to watch and listen to, it's mostly jaw dropping for me honestly. You are like the total opposite of me, you try to improve and I'm just here still playing simple songs with feels and people still watch my videos. That's why I have a feeling that when people are getting familiar with a certain style, it's not always a bad thing to keep doing what you are doing. I mean why fix things that aren't broken? I'm not saying that you should neglect improvement, but you shouldn't break you mind over it.
This is one of my favorite Animenz covers, and the long hours of effort put into it really show. It's masterfully arranged and played, and a wonder to listen to.
Jesus Christ, you are doing such a great job! Your arrengements/covers are so damn good. The way you are bringing it to the piano and the way you are playing the piano... so great! Stay awesome as you are! And thank you for bringing your art to all of us :)

Wow, I have already watched this hundreds, if not, thousands of times and I realize I did not comment a single time; I guess I am slow to react when I see great performances and specially of one of my favorite songs (not to mention I love Aimer). Really grateful with each of your videos even if lastly you are not uploading new songs I love delighting myself with everything on your channel. Great work! I hope I see more of you this year :D
+Msmusicful Perhaps you'd be a helpfull hand then, I'd like to watch them but I don't know in which order I need to see them (like are they all worth watching). Btw The piano arrangement is awesome, I used to play the song on Osu! :3
+ArnoldleZolid If you want the WHOLE story, I suggest reading/playing the visual novel. But if you don't have the time to do that-cuz lets be honest, WHO DOES- watch the animes. So the Fate series is divided into 3 routes; Fate, Unlimited Blade Works, & Heaven's Feel. All three are defined by what happens in the end and who the main character ends up with. So far, there have been 2 adaptions, one for Fate and the other one for UBW. There is another one currently in the works for Heaven's Feel. Ok so to start, I suggest Fate Stay Night made by studio Deen in 2006. But tbh, if you can't take bad quality animation, I don't suggest you watch it. Unfortunately, that's the only adaption for the Fate route so if you want to experience the Fate route, watch it. Then, watch the latest one which is Fate Stay Night Unlimited Blade Works. Then after that, watch Fate/Zero which is the prequel to the whole series (it doesn't matter which route).
+Fall Herring Also, I know that A LOT of people suggest watching Fate/Zero first. But Fate/Zero was meant to be a prequel. So don't watch it first, and also, I'd say Fate/Zero was the best out of all of them. So save the best for last! :) I hope I was helpful to you and good luck with this series.
+Fall Herring thanks ! So far I watched a few episodes of stay night, I'm not really into it but i'll push myself some more too see how it goes, but then I'll follow you're lead ^^
Many many thanks for this arrangement of Brave Shine :) this is one of my favorites as I find myself going back and listening to this again and again, because the music really uplifts my spirit whenever I feel demotivated or discouraged.. many thanks for creating this as this really inspires me to keep moving forward :) many thanks for your music that has the power to heal and uplift the spirit :) どうもありがとうございます :)
I've playing piano 6 years now, I can play hard tracks... Then I found this channel, and I feel happy and sad at the same time, because I know I have several years back untill I can even start learning something like this, but still, you're awesome and this channel as well, keep up the good work!
I'm in love. this is absolutely beautiful and the best arrangement out there. thank you for making it and thank you for making sheet music. 🙏🙏😍😍😍😍 all the best in the future, this proves you haven't reached you "peak" yet. You're still going further.
Thank you, Animenz! This song is heart-wrenching but inspiring! It was really deep... musically and emotionally. I heard you in the composition--your weariness, your dedication, your hope, your love... The love that you have for your listeners manifests in this wholehearted piece. The steady, bold hand of the keys at the beginning is like a hero's ultimate decision to stand strong in a belief or pursuit. The joy of the journey to fulfill this, however is countered by a hurricane of doubts and fears of failure, represented by the high right hand and low left hand keys. Finally, after much pain in perseverance, the hero wins over his fears and keeps his path despite the trials ahead, marked by the extremely low chord at the end. Not only does this capture the struggles of Shirou to become a hero of justice, but it is an anthem of your own battles to be the best musician you can be for others.
Please do not fear in disappointing us viewers! Your compositions have the power to touch the human heart, even mine, but the compassion you have towards your listeners is what ultimately draws us to you! We can hear the love you have for everyone in your outstanding pieces! Thank you for pouring into your audience with a genuine heart, Animenz. You are our hero, our inspiration, and our "brave shine!" 😊
You shouldn't sell yourself short! This piece definitely proves that you haven't "peaked." I know what it's like to feel that anxiousness in your life where you're just not sure of yourself anymore, but in all seriousness this is an amazing arrangement. Glad your back because these videos always brighten my day 👍🏼
+Justin Espeoni OMG YES!!!!!! If Animenz made this already so beautiful, imagine what a blubbering mess we'd all be if he did Last Stardust. :3 Pleeeaaaaaaaase Animenz???
This piece is so great. I love it very much since the release (even without watching Fate/stay night UBW for a long time) I really admire you and your work. : ) You inspired me to keep playing Piano also after my piano teacher's death. I rushed through UBW within 2 days during the last weekend. Now i am feeling torn ad need a week to digest it. :D But right now i just wanna hear this song all the time.
Been practicing this song for 4 months now. Can play the whole song at 170bpm except for that last part....can only manage at 150bpm...This man is god!!!
Im sure it doesnt men anything coming from me, some random guy on the interwebs, but your "animenz style" has nothing to do with a sheets difficulty or complexity, nor is it something you can loose. Your style comes from your passion of playing, and your love of doing so! In every sheet that you do, you are always able to make something amazing and incredible, even in something as "simple" as "The song of Aether"
Watching your videos inspired me to learn to play the piano, now I practice 4 hours a day and am steadily improving, but eventually being able to play some of these songs is still my goal that I'm practicing toward
BRAVOOOOOO I really really enjoy your playing Animenz. And idk why but you always pick the songs that I really like! Also, I heard something weird at 4:43, but who cares! Go Animenz
In my opinion you're the best pianist in the world. Especially with that performance you've made my heart fly high. Maby i sound weird but thats what i think. You are the reason i've started to play the piano again after 10 years ! Thanks for your music and the passion you put into it ! -> sorry for my bad english !
Many thanks for creating this video :) your arrangement for Brave Shine has really helped motivate me especially when I hit roadblocks :) may you keep sharing your music to the world, music which makes a difference for us :)
Animenz, I already said this on FB but I'll say it again, To this world of animusicians whether they are pianists, flutists, guitarists, drummers, or singers, you will always be our greatest inspiration in history. So I'll repeat what I said before: You are our BRAVE SHINE! Don't worry about what you're concerned about right now and have a good 2016 year :)
Wonderful. I'd love to be able to play this in my home... But sadly I never played a piano. Maybe in another life I'll learn it. Thanks for sharing this with us 🙏🏻
Your description is soo wonderful ^_^ and you didn't disappoint us and I hope you feel that success in your soul :D it was perfect! What matters is the heart you put in your music and I can clearly feel it through the music :D especially you becoming one with the piano XD thats wonderful!
This is the first animenz arrangement I listened to. It’s the first one I attempted to learn. It’s the first one I gave up on and it’s the first that I learnt after coming back to it years later.

I am looking for easy piano sheets, and youtube gave me this....
Damn, I think its so easy even a PhD in piano would take some time mastering this piece.
practicing 4:26-4:36 is taking longer than an entire piece of an advanced level
Indeed, those arpeggios are extremely fast
you're practising this too now? 😂
ya i started some time ago my school started so not sure when I'll finish it lol. you always somehow find my comments man
well i just started it i got 1 and a half pages already dam it will be hard to play those arpeggios.
it took like 10 days to play entire piece decently except 4:26-4:36 and 4:53-5:04. I've been stuck in those two parts for about 3 months now and now my school started lol I still can't play them decently

I have always loved the build up and the sudden explosion of colours at the beginning.
Einfach erstaunlich wie es ein Pianist und sein Piano schaffen in so kurzer Zeit so viele Emotionen rüber zu bringen. Bestes Instrument der Welt.
It's not always easy to deliver what fans expect from you and with every video the expectations rises but I'm sure many fans here are loyal. If your future videos aren't as technical or as difficult... people will still enjoy them :3 They're just awesome to watch and listen to, it's mostly jaw dropping for me honestly. You are like the total opposite of me, you try to improve and I'm just here still playing simple songs with feels and people still watch my videos. That's why I have a feeling that when people are getting familiar with a certain style, it's not always a bad thing to keep doing what you are doing. I mean why fix things that aren't broken? I'm not saying that you should neglect improvement, but you shouldn't break you mind over it.
This is one of my favorite Animenz covers, and the long hours of effort put into it really show. It's masterfully arranged and played, and a wonder to listen to.
Fully agree, this is also one of my favorite Animenz covers! :)
My favourite one is his 10 years arrangement of my dearest :)
I don't have enough words to say how i'm thankful for your music. Thank's.
Jesus Christ, you are doing such a great job! Your arrengements/covers are so damn good. The way you are bringing it to the piano and the way you are playing the piano... so great!
Stay awesome as you are! And thank you for bringing your art to all of us :)

Steel is my body, Fire is my blood
Have create a thousand blades
Unknown to death
Nor known to life
Have withstood pain to create many weapons
Yet these hand won’t hold anything
So…

サビのとこで何故か泣けてきました,,!!聞いてて楽しいくて感動させてくださる貴方様を最近知り始めましたが、応援をこれからさせてください!!
Wow, I have already watched this hundreds, if not, thousands of times and I realize I did not comment a single time; I guess I am slow to react when I see great performances and specially of one of my favorite songs (not to mention I love Aimer). Really grateful with each of your videos even if lastly you are not uploading new songs I love delighting myself with everything on your channel. Great work! I hope I see more of you this year :D
This brings back so many memories... 0:45 ❤
Keep up the good work man, I'm a huge fan of yours.. 😄
Amazing! You never dissapoint, I love every video😍👏🏼
I've been waiting for another Fate series op from you😭👌🏻 so glad it came!
+Msmusicful yes the Fate OPs are awesome
+Msmusicful Perhaps you'd be a helpfull hand then, I'd like to watch them but I don't know in which order I need to see them (like are they all worth watching). Btw The piano arrangement is awesome, I used to play the song on Osu! :3
+ArnoldleZolid If you want the WHOLE story, I suggest reading/playing the visual novel. But if you don't have the time to do that-cuz lets be honest, WHO DOES- watch the animes.
So the Fate series is divided into 3 routes; Fate, Unlimited Blade Works, & Heaven's Feel. All three are defined by what happens in the end and who the main character ends up with.
So far, there have been 2 adaptions, one for Fate and the other one for UBW. There is another one currently in the works for Heaven's Feel.
Ok so to start, I suggest Fate Stay Night made by studio Deen in 2006. But tbh, if you can't take bad quality animation, I don't suggest you watch it. Unfortunately, that's the only adaption for the Fate route so if you want to experience the Fate route, watch it. Then, watch the latest one which is Fate Stay Night Unlimited Blade Works. Then after that, watch Fate/Zero which is the prequel to the whole series (it doesn't matter which route).
+Fall Herring Also, I know that A LOT of people suggest watching Fate/Zero first. But Fate/Zero was meant to be a prequel. So don't watch it first, and also, I'd say Fate/Zero was the best out of all of them. So save the best for last! :) I hope I was helpful to you and good luck with this series.
+Fall Herring thanks ! So far I watched a few episodes of stay night, I'm not really into it but i'll push myself some more too see how it goes, but then I'll follow you're lead ^^
Jezz that was just awesome, man you deserve a like, I'm still shock of how great and accurate was that.
keep up your works animenz! hope you'll get through all the struggles that have been bothering you. i'm rooting for you!! i love you!!
Many many thanks for this arrangement of Brave Shine :) this is one of my favorites as I find myself going back and listening to this again and again, because the music really uplifts my spirit whenever I feel demotivated or discouraged.. many thanks for creating this as this really inspires me to keep moving forward :) many thanks for your music that has the power to heal and uplift the spirit :) どうもありがとうございます :)
I've playing piano 6 years now, I can play hard tracks... Then I found this channel, and I feel happy and sad at the same time, because I know I have several years back untill I can even start learning something like this, but still, you're awesome and this channel as well, keep up the good work!
Now you can play them
Spectacular!
You are the best piano player that I have ever seen
I can really feel you pouring your soul into this piece. Amazing work!
i was waiting just for this oh my god it's beautiful
I'm in love. this is absolutely beautiful and the best arrangement out there. thank you for making it and thank you for making sheet music. 🙏🙏😍😍😍😍 all the best in the future, this proves you haven't reached you "peak" yet. You're still going further.
M too
Sabrina .C I know its beautiful :-)
+Touka Kirishima speaking of beautiful, nice profile picture
Aldurnamiyanrandvora thank you. ^^
I'm afraid this "Further" as you state it will require 8 octopus 🐙 tentacles in each hand to play....
Thank you, Animenz! This song is heart-wrenching but inspiring! It was really deep... musically and emotionally. I heard you in the composition--your weariness, your dedication, your hope, your love... The love that you have for your listeners manifests in this wholehearted piece. The steady, bold hand of the keys at the beginning is like a hero's ultimate decision to stand strong in a belief or pursuit. The joy of the journey to fulfill this, however is countered by a hurricane of doubts and fears of failure, represented by the high right hand and low left hand keys. Finally, after much pain in perseverance, the hero wins over his fears and keeps his path despite the trials ahead, marked by the extremely low chord at the end. Not only does this capture the struggles of Shirou to become a hero of justice, but it is an anthem of your own battles to be the best musician you can be for others.
Please do not fear in disappointing us viewers! Your compositions have the power to touch the human heart, even mine, but the compassion you have towards your listeners is what ultimately draws us to you! We can hear the love you have for everyone in your outstanding pieces! Thank you for pouring into your audience with a genuine heart, Animenz. You are our hero, our inspiration, and our "brave shine!" 😊
You shouldn't sell yourself short! This piece definitely proves that you haven't "peaked." I know what it's like to feel that anxiousness in your life where you're just not sure of yourself anymore, but in all seriousness this is an amazing arrangement. Glad your back because these videos always brighten my day 👍🏼
thank God for notifications
It'd be awesome if you followed this up with Last Stardust :P
+Justin Espeoni YASSS!! My thoughts exactly. It's a must!
+Justin Espeoni OMG YES!!!!!! If Animenz made this already so beautiful, imagine what a blubbering mess we'd all be if he did Last Stardust. :3 Pleeeaaaaaaaase Animenz???
+Justin Espeoni Thank rational thought and human endeavor for notifications.
+OverLordGoldDragon na, god willed it into creation... not dez thins callez thoughtz... whatever they are
This piece is so great. I love it very much since the release (even without watching Fate/stay night UBW for a long time) I really admire you and your work. : ) You inspired me to keep playing Piano also after my piano teacher's death.
I rushed through UBW within 2 days during the last weekend. Now i am feeling torn ad need a week to digest it. :D But right now i just wanna hear this song all the time.
U got me biting my nails in tension. That's how good this song is. U did amazing in transferring it to piano
You play so beautifully You bring forth tears to my eyes with joyous feelings of appreciation of these beautiful musical pieces
Been practicing this song for 4 months now. Can play the whole song at 170bpm except for that last part....can only manage at 150bpm...This man is god!!!
Im sure it doesnt men anything coming from me, some random guy on the interwebs, but your "animenz style" has nothing to do with a sheets difficulty or complexity, nor is it something you can loose. Your style comes from your passion of playing, and your love of doing so! In every sheet that you do, you are always able to make something amazing and incredible, even in something as "simple" as "The song of Aether"
+Pokeman Sam This sounds just like Your lie in april, and it makes me cry just thinking about it. Saddest anime!
Insanely good! Looking forward to many more amazing arrangements and covers from you!
Watching your videos inspired me to learn to play the piano, now I practice 4 hours a day and am steadily improving, but eventually being able to play some of these songs is still my goal that I'm practicing toward
BRAVOOOOOO I really really enjoy your playing Animenz. And idk why but you always pick the songs that I really like! Also, I heard something weird at 4:43, but who cares! Go Animenz
In my opinion you're the best pianist in the world. Especially with that performance you've made my heart fly high.
Maby i sound weird but thats what i think. You are the reason i've started to play the piano again after 10 years !
Thanks for your music and the passion you put into it !
-> sorry for my bad english !
Your English is fine dude!
Writes better than most fluent english speakers. "Bad English"
How's it going, are you still playing? I myself continued playing after 3 years of hiatus, also because of Animenz
Right around 1:44-2:10 always seems to make me tear up a bit. I didn't know a song could do that. Thank you. *Smiles wistfully*
Many thanks for creating this video :) your arrangement for Brave Shine has really helped motivate me especially when I hit roadblocks :) may you keep sharing your music to the world, music which makes a difference for us :)
Animenz, I already said this on FB but I'll say it again,
To this world of animusicians whether they are pianists, flutists, guitarists, drummers, or singers, you will always be our greatest inspiration in history.
So I'll repeat what I said before: You are our BRAVE SHINE!
Don't worry about what you're concerned about right now and have a good 2016 year :)
Wonderful. I'd love to be able to play this in my home... But sadly I never played a piano. Maybe in another life I'll learn it. Thanks for sharing this with us 🙏🏻
Your description is soo wonderful ^_^ and you didn't disappoint us and I hope you feel that success in your soul :D it was perfect! What matters is the heart you put in your music and I can clearly feel it through the music :D especially you becoming one with the piano XD thats wonderful!
Beautiful, incredible, true musical art! Not enough words to describe the awesomeness, just wish I discovered it earlier!
THIS IS BEAUTIFUL!!!
ベストアレンジ!!死ぬまで聞き続けます!!
ANIMEZ - you have inspired us all . Your the reason I started playing piano . Your level is godlike , you ll always be animez .
This is the first animenz arrangement I listened to. It’s the first one I attempted to learn. It’s the first one I gave up on and it’s the first that I learnt after coming back to it years later.
