    It is insane that no one gives credit to Kajiura Yuki, who single-handedly compose all the ost for fate zero as well as compose AND write the lyrics for this Godly song. Honestly, I think the singers are great, but to write and compose a song with such amazing colors, theme, and style changing, as well as composing for three singers requires nothing less than a genius. The mix of classical instruments, vocal as well as modern synthesis but still was able to provide a consistent and exciting song is so mindblowing. Kajiura Yuki is my no. 1 composer in Japan period.

      Leading up to that part, the melody & bass is along the lines of
      a a a c d d d g g g b c c c ...
      d g c f ...
      and once it transitions
      a a a g# a f# g# a c# c# d ...
      f# d b e ...
      that looks like A minor to A major to me.
      What reassures me is improvising the bassline with her. Prior to the transition, anything outside of A minor sounds off. Afterwards, anything outside of A major sounds off.
      Albeit, I can't hear the chords in this song for the life of me. Your chord progression perspective goes right over my head.

      They won't be disbanding, Keiko is leaving along with Kajiura, leaving Kalafina to continue as a duo. Based on my decade plus experience in music, I can confirm this isn't going to work and they will be forced to either disband shortly into the duo run or find a near exact match to Keiko's voice, which is easier said than done with her vocal type being as rare in females as it is.

    The girl with the low voice is superb. Not only her voice is beautiful and flawless but... do you know how f*****g hard it is for a singer to maintain the tone (and change it accordingly) while you hear such high voices and you're alone!? Words can't describe the difficulty... an excellent example of hard work.

      Yeah I know how it is, well kind of, and her name is Kubota Keiko, she has an amazing voice. Listen to her versions of Synchronicity and Houseki, they're amazing. And yes I know how hard it is, because when I sing with my sister, I usually have a higher voice and my sister had a deeper voice (kind of similar to Keiko...) and when we sing together she tries to mantain her tone, and if she can't she forces her voice to sound higher :/ what a great sister I have ^_^

Then there's the fact that kiritsugu can't go see iliasviel... And saber goes back to her dieing moment which makes NO sense seeing as Excalibur seriously destroyed the grail and Gilgamesh but SOMEHOW she dies which im sorry but no. If your gonna drag out a series to be two seasons long, then right before the finale explain how saving the world without a greater sacrifice is impossible just so they have her destroy the grail, that pisses me off, like they could have just ended it with her destroying Gilgamesh and the grail and done all the epilogue but they didn't they had to drag it out. And left Gilgamesh to his own devices, which he can still open the gates of Babylon. So.. He's practically a god. So no. Just no.

    Reasons why I love Japanese music and why it is better than current mainstream ones:
    1. Poetic. I love poems.
    2. Lyrics have beautiful hidden meanings.
    3. Harmony of the sounds.
    4. Songs these days are all about money, drugs, sex, violence and partying and girls.
    5. Makes us love our favorite anime series much more because of symbolic interpretations.

    Surely a miracle will happen just once more
    Draws a twisted future with a tender voice
    My cries and prayers
    For a world where no one will cry anymore
    Vanish without even reaching anywhere of the soiled red sky
    So I throw away all solace and press on
    The beautiful moonlight
    Is sinking into the beginning
    To the place beyond
    With closed eyes
    I'll stretch my hand out
    Even farther
    While believing in your grief
    The truth is, who's the one wanted to be saved
    My lost heart pokes a hole in the sky
    If by choosing you
    I could find our very own happiness
    Then no matter how cold a flame I'm burnt with
    I won't be far from a smile
    A writhing dream - the meaning of life
    I want to return this frightened world
    Back to crystal-clear water
    Sadness is the only thing that I won't erase
    Even the logic in people's hearts
    I'll slash it with these hands
    Down to zero we go
    The beautiful moonlight
    Is just quietly
    Decaying away into the beginning
    My ceased desire
    Is still further
    Within the darkness
    All the days that I've lived with you
    Is a kind song.

    I scream out a prayer that doesn't reach anywhere and disappears
    Into the contaminated red sky,
    Throwing away all mercy.

    I still reach my hand
    Even further.
    Believe in the grief you feel.

      @@frederickgrandison3609 It's always weird getting replies to comments that are so old, but it's also fun to see what my past self said lol. I've seen anime, and I had then too. I still don't really care for it. There are a few exceptions. I love Studio Ghibli (but who doesn't?), I did like Neon Genesis Evangelion, and because I'm a furfag, I do watch Beastars. Also Hetalia, despite its tendency to attract weird fangirls, is legitimately hilarious

    This is certainly better than the Season 1 opening, season 1 opening wasn't necessarily bad but it wasn't as good as this one

    Kalafina is my favorite j-pop group, mainly because they always create not only gorgeous music videos, but they also have such amazing singing voices, gorgeous costumes and they are gorgeous themselves, and I just love how it all loops together so well.
