You know what left me with anger. When setsu was frustrated at the end everyone thought it was because he got third place. But that frustration came from his toxic parents especially his mom who could not even respect her own son's sound.
It just made me more made then I already was, watching the anime was good don’t get me wrong but I knew the mom was going to be like that but what threw me over the edge was the mom dropping the trophy on purpose
If you ask me it's kind of stupid how the judging works in music comps, like his was clearly the best preference because of the style change, yet that caused him to lose points. Ain't no-one heard music before, especially classical every piece goes through a change of emotion, tempo, softness, season & so on.
That's what happens when you're born in musically driven families. They don't have much freedom to express their own sound. If they do, you'll get the same results as Setsu's mom. That is why some unlucky few burn out very quickly from the intense pressure.
I bet his grandfather would be so proud of Setsu when he switched over His Grandfather NEVER wanted ANYONE to try and copy his sound, that would mean losing all purpose for the Shamisen to be played. He just needed to find his own sound and play it HIS way, thats all his grandfather ever wanted
Yes, he lost the tournament, though the true victory here is something different. At the very end, precisely at that apex of moments, he found himself. This is one of the most crucial and important gain for any artist, no matter the medium. Finding out your own style is like finding out your own path which is equal to finding out who you truly are. Thus, Setsu won.
him playing is so beautiful. sounds like someone becoming unraveled and torn apart inside. like turbulence but also like breaking free from it all. side note...ive never watched this anime but thats what it sounds like to me.
I think it's an important scene that shows the contrast between the moment when Setsu, who had lost sight of himself chasing after his great grandfather, realizes his own music, and his mother, who is still trapped in the illusion of a great father.
nice, didn't know there was a shamisen anime like this! if you liked this i recommend 'the piano forest' - basically alot of similarities just with classical piano and finding your own personal expression.
Yeah, it sounds like a mix of plucking with the plectrum (generic term for a pick, not sure what the one used for shamisen is called) and left hand pizzicato (plucking with the left hand which is pressing down the strings) where he's essentially plucking the string as he lifts his finger off to change the pitch. It takes a lot of coordination to do that without it turning into a muddy mess (im speaking from experience, lmao, I still need to practice)😅
Well his grandpa mentioned that developing your sound takes a lifetime. Setsu as an artist will never be satisfied with his own sound, but he found out how his sound will be. It will evolve and improve. His grandpa knew this and didn't want setsu to get stuck mimicking him and waste time instead of starting to find his sound. Because remember she played for the grandma and said the song sounded completely different from how setsu played it, and he mimicked how his grandpa played. Meaning that matsugoro knew setsu was not gonna find his sound over night, it's a lifetime of evolving one will do with the shamisen.
There is something that makes the mother's attitude more horrible to me. In the chapter where Setsu plays his grandfather's song for the nursing home granny, it becomes clear that Setsu's sound is even more beautiful than the sound his grandfather had at his age. His grandfather never wanted Setsu to play like him. He wanted Setsu to find his own sound. Setsu's sound may even become more beautiful than their grandfather's when Setsu reaches his grandfather's age.
His Parents basically did what every Horrible Parents does, they hammered every Talented Kids based on what they wanted so they are burn out and true talent buried deep
I think his mother wants the best for him but also has High expectations which can turn her toxic. I think she cares she just struggles a lot to show it in a means way. She set up the competition so his sound wouldn't be hidden in obscurity like his grand farther. In the manga he takes on a job and she offers him tutors and the lot but he wants to take his own path . He's striving for independents while she's trying so hard to hold on to him but when she gets to close pushes him away, partly I think it's due to the fact she thinks all men will leave her because or her husband but then again I'm only theorising why she act like she does.
@@FinDaboi-tf4mv my take is she was angry with him more for the fact that he changed sound Midway and "embarrassed" her and broker her expectations for him that she felt he was doing it on purpose but that's my take
@@FinDaboi-tf4mv there is. She doesn't give a shit about Setsu finding his own sound because she wants him to play his grandfather's sound. She specifically said that he would _win the tournament, while playing Matsugoro's sound._ To Umeko, her son is little more than a means to bolster her own fame, and his father is no better. The way they treat him after this just solidifies that they don't care about him as a person.
He didnt, if he played like this since the start of his performance he would have won, i guess we'll have to wait for season 2 to hear his true full potential sound
So let me get this straight: he starts out not caring about anything but the music, starts hating the music, and then swings around to only caring about playing the music which expresses his truest self? And thereby self-actualizes into a person who has let go of the concept of glory in favor of the pursuit and realization of self-love and personal honesty?
so everyone misunderstood why he was frustrated at the end. he was frustrated because he wanted someone to truly appreciate the sound he made. mostly his parents. which didnt do any of that. they basically disowned him from the start. everyone thought it was just him being a baby about being in third place... no that just hurt more because even his friends didnt understand.
This is not his true sound, did you not hear his conversation with Kamiki Seiryu-san after the judges announced the winner of the competition? Did you not remember his sound? I think It's related to the title, Snow.
The first time we heard his sound which is boring or whimsical as what Seiryu-san called it, is in episode 3, where Seiryu-san asked him to play. In the team performance of Tokyo's Umezono Academy, Episode 9, before it end we heard his sound too, as to what Kaji-kun said it's like fluttering snow and audiences said it's so quiet but he's playing.
(Their conversation)Seiryu-san: How does it feel to have your performance graded for the first time? Setsu-kun: Honestly, it's frustrating. Seiryu-san: Frustrating? Setsu-kun: There's no goal in this world, yet a ranking was given to that sound. Furthermore, it's possible for the judges to not understand my sound. Seiryu-san: Do you know why there's such a huge gap between you and Soichi, despite you giving an amazing performance? To the judges, the famous Matsugoro and your original sound don't matter. What's needed is the demonstration of the "consistency of the sound". You changed your sound midway, and that change in the style confused the listeners. What's more, it's between the two extremes of an old and new playing style. Your sound is whimsical. I've heard your sound for a couple of times, but the sound that RESEMBLES you only occured during the second half. Why did you not, let out that sound until now? Seiryu-san: To performers, the sound is an expression of themselves. Other people need to be present for them to express. And those people would be the audience. Everyone in this world wants a place to express their own sound. Do you have that desire? I can't feel it at all. Setsu-kun: I have that desire! If I didn't, I wound't feel this frustrated! Seiryu-san: The moment you felt that desire, was after the performance, right? It was after you heard Soichi's sound and after the results were announced, right? Setsu-kun: I'm not trying to win the recognition of many people. Seiryu-san: That's only something that someone at the top can do, right? You're just being purely pretentious.
I think it's his sound coming to life, his grandpa said to steal it with his own. So I think he's using his own sound with his grandpa's determination and love for the shamisen. I think the only thing he wanted setsu to have was the rest of it and not the sound, the technique, heart, mind, and determination all come from his grandpa. Setsu just needed his own sound to truly understand what his grandpa said in the first episode.
i have no idea what i watched, and yet it wasn't bad but i also have no clue what they are talking about when each of them showed or spoke how they felt. might check it out.
You know what left me with anger. When setsu was frustrated at the end everyone thought it was because he got third place. But that frustration came from his toxic parents especially his mom who could not even respect her own son's sound.

The only good parent for setsu is his grandpa and his brother.

His Grandfather NEVER wanted ANYONE to try and copy his sound, that would mean losing all purpose for the Shamisen to be played. He just needed to find his own sound and play it HIS way, thats all his grandfather ever wanted
Setsu would 100% had earned second place had he played like this from the start

Really incredible. Understand now that I adore this instrument.

1:51; never in my life I’ve ever heard an ultra fast picking of the strings of a shamisen but I’m digging it
It's a mixture of both hands, it's amazing just how much work shamisen musicians put into their hands when playing
Yeah, it sounds like a mix of plucking with the plectrum (generic term for a pick, not sure what the one used for shamisen is called) and left hand pizzicato (plucking with the left hand which is pressing down the strings) where he's essentially plucking the string as he lifts his finger off to change the pitch.

He lost tho, cause he played 2 diffrent sounds in one song, but he would have won if he played like that from the start
I wish they made a second season of this!

yooo the moment he said "the rain lifted" it actually started raining hard here in my place LOL
It appears that the Rain has infact, not lifted.
One million views. Come on people
Damn, I wish they would stop talking so much during the performance.

COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM
What's the name of the piece thinking about using it as my Ringtone .
Setsu won.
What's the name of this piece? Did they even mention it in the anime?
Its name is mentioned before the singles competition begins but its an interpretive piece so its just one big solo
Sounds like Rokudan, but in his personal style.
what japenese accent sawamura speaks i really liked that ??? anyone from japan who knows it
This is not his true sound, did you not hear his conversation with Kamiki Seiryu-san after the judges announced the winner of the competition? Did you not remember his sound? I think It's related to the title, Snow.

After their conversation, Setsu-kun ran outside and cried, just one sentence from what he said, "Does that mean my sound doesn't exist?".
And it's not like his sound literally doesn't exist, he just have to hone it.
I think it's his sound coming to life, his grandpa said to steal it with his own. So I think he's using his own sound with his grandpa's determination and love for the shamisen. I think the only thing he wanted setsu to have was the rest of it and not the sound, the technique, heart, mind, and determination all come from his grandpa.
