Regarding the description: I can tell you why I subscribed. Because of Animenz and the great arrangements, nothing else. I don't want flashy thumbnails, crazy editing or trending topics and I don't even have any social media. There's plenty other places I can get those things. But there's only one Animenz channel.
I actually didn't know you uploaded today. It reminds me of back then (when we were actually uploading more) and have a coincidence when we upload on the same day. Good times. Also a beautiful arrangement. The piano/mics/arrangement lately has had a calm vibe, even melancholic sometimes. I don't know if that's on purpose or not, but there's something so special about it. Hope to see you upload more. I'm getting back to uploading too, with songs that I actually cherish and love to listen to. Let's provide RUclips with some good piano music, like the good old days, yeah?
I still remember the crazy coincidence, when both of us was uploading a piano cover of Chuunibyou demo koi ga shitai OP on the same day - unbeknownst from each other. Really good times. I think in RUclips terms of activity length, we both are literally the "Ojiisans" of anime piano cover channels. Only kyle landry, Marasy and a handful others have started uploading earlier and are still active until today. I hope homeone can make a nice looking diagram, showcasing the anime piano community on RUclips from 2007 to 2019. I am also looking forward to your next uploads as well!
Usually I lose interest in a Mobile game after a month but Bandori is different. I really fall in love with their original songs and the excellent cast of Characters
I think many people actually appreciate the "purity" of your activity on RUclips. No begging for likes, subscribers or patrons. No flashy visualisers or fancy end cards. The music always speaks for itself and never gets out of focus. And it's a life changing thing, your music. Be proud!
if you target guys like rousseau talking about "flashing lights" i find it unfair, he works hard aswell he developped a nice presentation but that doesn't lower his abilities.
@@TheMusicalKnokcers I don't want to devalue anyone. Rousseau is an epic pianist and I enjoy his content. What you're saying is not wrong. It's all a matter of preference I guess.
There are several anime pianists and each of them has their own unique way. However, I would easily argue that Animenz is just the best anime pianist. With his level of music, there is no need for other catchy (?) aspects. That said if we ever open his patron, I will definitely sub him without giving a second thought!
@@TheMusicalKnokcers Rousseau's channel is designed to spread classical music to the interests of other young non-classical musicians. Fancy lights are just a part of that. Everyone's channel has their own purpose and therefore caters to different audiences in different ways.
Alright, so, after listening, this really does feel like a "special" arrangement. I haven't heard the original, but hearing this it feels like it was meant to be played on piano, it sounds so pretty!! Regarding why you got so far with youtube despite irregular uploads - the reason I think of "Animenz" in the same breath I think of anime piano music is because there really isn't anyone putting out sheet music quite like yours. The amount of classical techniques, the original ideas, the way the arrangements are so well thought out, it's just so distinctly "Animenz" and the quality is just so consistent I would wait 5 years for a new upload and just be happy that there is new music to appreciate. I guess in the same way people wait years for album releases from their favorite artists. I don't want to drag this out too much, so long story short! I am mostly a youtube taught pianist and haven't touched classical music in 11 years. For the past 6 years, especially initially, 75% of what I played were Animenz arrangements, the rest were arrangements from theishter and kylelandry. Fast forward to this year - I got scouted by a piano professor at my college and I'm taking classical classes again, with my teacher telling me I have developed some great technique and strength, disbelieving that I have no classical repertoire at all. He forgets about it all the time lol "Do you have a Concerto in your repertoire?" "No..." (I'm not gonna tell him I could play Kuusou Mesorogiwi instead) Playing classical music now I suddenly realized HOW much I learned just from your arrangements. You have literally taught me a ton of classical techniques without me realizing. Isn't that pretty damn cool?
Wow, this is definitely cool! Thank you for sharing your story with me! And out of all pieces, you have to pick one of the most difficult ones (空想メソロギヰ), haha. Good luck with your future classical classes!
@@Animenzzz Thank you! And I did always go for the more difficult of your arrangements even though they were initially *too* difficult a lot of the time lol, but still I stubborned my way through, and it definitely helped that I literally never get bored of hearing them!
@@Animenzzz Lol dude I've been learning your version of Kuusou from the past few months, it's one of my favorite arrangement of yours besides Colors and I think it's got some of the most badass Animenz moments ever I especially like playing the fast chord hammers in both hands at 01:37 and that super neat and sublime 'triple' hand part that starts at 02:06 leading into the grand chord jumps in your Kuusou Mesorogiwi video I always seem to mess up at the super fast 'out-of-sync' arpeggios at 02:40 though, really wish I could get past that as it spoils an otherwise mistake-free performance arghh X_X
Caliko I’m right there with you on picking his pieces that are a little beyond my reach. I remember working six months to play one song. But like you said, I just don’t get tired of them. I have recently started learning slightly easier pieces to get myself back into playing, and it has amazed me how quickly I’m learning the pieces. We just have to keep challenging ourselves, and we will grow.
Pattrick_Star wow...never knew that... Been Animenz fan for over five years now, and have played bandori for over two years... would love to see his other covers too!
So, I’ved recently lost the motivation I once had. Just couldn’t find a project to fully invest myself in but just like you have done years ago, I’ve have been motivated and inspired to finally get back to playing!
The reason I am subscribed, is the quality of the music itself. The arrangements that you channel all of your perfectionism into results in something that can't be found anywhere else. I see other anime piano channels that have been inspired by your arranging style, yet don't have the technical ability to reach your level and I occasionally see those with technical abilities that surpass your own, but can never match up to your no-compromise perfectionism when arranging. The amount of effort invested is just too inspiring for me not to stay subscribed. Back when you released your kancolle medley, I dropped the guitar I had been learning for 10 years and started getting piano lessons. You made it seem like a piano could do anything - It felt like I was listening to a full orchestra and then the next minute I could hear the tubas and cymbal crashes in a marching band. If the piece needed another voice to represent the song, then you would find a way to do the gymnastics with your hands to weave that extra voice into the arrangement. To this day, even some of the easier arrangements are too difficult and are things I look forward to learning down the line. The only arrangement of yours I have learnt so far is 'Blessing' from 'Kamisama no Inai Nichiyoubi'. For me, frequent uploads and relevant songs are not important. The music that is inspiring to you, enough that you put your everything into it, will always result in the best video in my opinion. Thank you for keeping me inspired over the years.
I still regard my Kancolle piano medley as one of the best arrangements I have ever written in terms of both musicality and technique. Happy to hear that you enjoyed it as well!
Everyday World first part looks playable. I'm trying to play and it's not that hard, except the final part of the ballad. The actual speedy part is hell though. I was there for the ballad anyway!
Same. I can hear all the lyrics in my head as he plays. I like his style of playing that still keeps the energy of the song, but he does it in a very cool way.
Animenz, your playing is the reason we subscribed. I found inspiration to fully immerse myself in piano and really focus on it and have motivation to continue playing because of your music. I’m sure that’s the case with many others as well. We don’t need flashy thumbnails, or clickbaity title, or a regular upload schedule. Animenz is the part of the internet that’s genuine about their work and is where people like us can stem their inspiration and motivation from. You have a certain style of playing - something that’s like you are being carried off; whisked away in the music and transported in that scene where the music is. Such magic doesn’t need anything to show that.
Have you thought about practicing? PS: I know it's a joke, but a lot of peope read these type of comments and think it's impossible to learn these pieces, hence they might not start to play piano, or dont try out these pieces, which is a shame.
@@Sportwagenfreak1998 I own an electric piano. And once you get a piece down slowly, you can play it faster. Tho fast isnt the same as accurate. I don't have bad coordination. But I would say anyone with a sense of rythm and harmony can play almost anything with enough time.
@@MrMeasaftw Yep, like. I know I often give up on playing pieces because they are too hard. But I already know some that are harder.. It's just that I spent a lot of time learning those and I don't give myself that much time these days. It may be slow but if you take the time you can learn something that you thought was above you.
Great to see you back! Quality > Quantity is what I always believe in (and all your covers are just lit) I really enjoyed this arrangement with the re-imagination of the entire piece, that brings the music out in a different, but a really impactful way. Can’t wait to hear more arrangements! P.S. Also, dang you’ve slimmed down a lot, stay healthy :3
since I moved to Japan few months ago, I think its the Japanese cuisine causing me to slim down so much. Compared to German food size, it's considerably smaller
Animenz, I will never stop watching you and love your music. You give us your passion, and you give me inspiration to do my best too. despite all the difficulties. Thank you, my Idol, I love you
As a fellow Bandori fan and anime pianist, this cover could not made me happier. Bandori is truly a great franchise, and I’m happy to see someone as big as you showing people all these beautiful Bandori piano cover. Kizuna Music is my favorite song ever, the meaning behind the song, the story and bonds each member shares, the gorgeous vocals. It’s all represented in this ballad version extremely well. Thank you so much Animenz, I have so many things I want to say about this masterpiece, but I can say one thing clear. Thank you
I watched many of your Bandori piano cover videos as well! I especially like your 八月if - piano cover! I always pick Kizuna music as the last song when I go to Karaoke btw. It's really just that good
Santa : what is your wish child? Child: I want a dragon Santa: Thats impossible make another wish Child: I wish I can play like animenz Santa: What colour do u want your dragon to be again?
I started playing BanG Dream in early 2018 when the English version first released. BanG Dream as a series has meant so so much to me and Kizuna Music is one of those songs that always gives me goosebumps no matter how many times I listen to it. This piano arrangement honestly made me tear up a bit at multiple points, I was just so overwhelmed by emotion. I hope you do more BanG Dream arrangements in the future! I'll always love what you do
1. That was a fast week ! lmao not complaining tho xD 2. "To be honest, I am still surprised how someone "un-RUclips-ish" like me has made it so far (笑) I mean, I don't have proper thumbnails, my video editing is basic, I don't follow trending topics, my social media management is infrequent, my upload rate is a joke... And yet, 1.5 Million people has subscribed me." I'm pretty sure those 1.5 million subscribed because of the high quality and will always await a new upload no matter how long you take to make one, me included (and yes I read description before watching the video) 3. I see that you remembered to wear long sleeve this time xD 4. I always love it when you add runs like these 0:11 to your arrangements ! they sound really amazing 5. 1:43 it wouldn't be an Animenz arrangement without 3-hand technique lol 6. 2:33 I'm impressed with that right hand, I like it 7. 2:58 that was close ! xD 8. 5:42 holy shit that last chorus ! I didn't expect you to go that wild considering the overall arrangement is very calm lol so it was a nice constrast and I loved every second of this video :) I hope to see more of you in the future
You noticed that right hand almost miss at 2:58? You truly have detective eyes, (笑) I think I mistook the next phrase for an octave higher and quickly realized the mistake and corrected my hand position.
Awesome cover again! I love the way you take a song, distill the main themes from it, and build a new song around those parts. It feels distinct from the original but still true to the feel of the song. My favorite part of this one is the part you play on your right hand at 1:43. It complements the main melody really well. I wouldn't worry about the "regular" RUclips stuff. It's mesmerizing just watching your hands on the piano. Looking forward to the next upload!
I was lucky enough to get a front row center seat to Popipa's Acoustic Mini Live at CharaExpo USA 2019 last weekend, and I must say, their acoustic arrangement of Kizuna Music is something I will never forget. It was so powerful and I haven't stopped thinking about it all week. Today, I came across this video of yours and I can't help but want to show Popipa this piano arrangement. I think that they would be so happy to know that the music they perform has inspired such an amazing arrangement. It really made me feel like I was sitting in the same front row seat when I closed my eyes. While I may very well never get to experience acoustic Kizuna Music by Popipa live again, I can always come back here to recover my memories. Thank you for spending so much time and love into arranging, performing and uploading this video. As a fan of yours for 2 years now, I look forward to seeing what amazing arrangements are next to come!
Kizuna Music is one of my favorite songs in BanG Dream too! This song just fills people with all the hope they need when they're down. When I learned that you played the game too, I wondered for a long time if you'd ever cover a song from any of the bands. Then today happened. Today is a good day. Despite your random upload rate, I always found the quality of each upload to be top notch. I like how your videos are very basic in terms of editing, since it reminds me of how it's like attending a concert. It's simple, but everybody's waiting in anticipation for the music to start. Having good edits definitely can make a video fun to watch, but a video with simple edits here and there for covers also has its own advantages. The last thing I want to say is that the journey in this song is one we all can connect to. It's pretty fitting considering the title of the song. We've all got our ups and downs, but in the end, we keep on moving.
I don't think that anybody subbed to you cares about wether or not you focus on seasonal pieces. Everything you make sounds beautiful, and we will always continue appreciate it. Please continue to follow your heart with your compositions, that's why we love them.
All of his arrangements are truly amazing, but this is the first one in quite a while that really felt like animenz. The arrangement style is so unique and perfect. So glad his uploading somewhat consistently again. Been listening to these for quite a few years and I'll keep listening as long as he keeps making them.
I also read a lot in the comments that my videos "sounds like typical Animenz", but even I myself I still don't fully understood what it means yet, haha. I guess my fans knows it even better than me.
@@Animenzzz well it's the character of you that you put into that music. When you arrange and when you play you arrange it with your knowledge of music theory but you also put in your emotion, tears, etc into that arrangement. That part of you makes us feel that "Animenz feeling" we know it's your music because we recognize your character in that Piece. Everytime its different tho because you never feel the same ^-^
Really missed these arrangements. That’s why I never regretted subscribing to you. Doesn’t matter how Long it takes as Long as you live your dream and we get to listen to your beautiful arrangements
We subscribe to you and support you because we honestly love the effort and love you put into your music and seeing you upload makes all of our days a little better if not alot. We loyal fans will continue to support you no matter how messy your upload schedule gets, so continue being the amazing perfectionist you are❤️❣️🙃
Sometimes i don't feel like practicing the piano but then you upload a song and i remember why i started and how i felt in love with the piano and i continue and all that because of you ! I love you!
Ich kann nur sagen, dass jedes einzelne Arrangement etwas sehr Besonderes für mich ist. Ob es nun eine Woche oder ein Jahr dauert bis zum nächsten Video spielt keine Rolle für mich. In dem Moment in dem ich ein neues Video sehe lasse ich alles stehen und liegen um es mir anzuhören. Das wird sich niemals ändern. Eine meiner schönsten Erinnerungen in meinem Leben ist das Konzert in Berlin. Ohne deine emotionsreichen und anspruchsvollen Arrangements hätte ich vielleicht schon vor Jahren aufgehört Klavier zu spielen. In der Zeit bin ich auf deinen Channel gestoßen und seitdem haben sich meine Fähigkeiten deutlich verbessert. Vielen vielen Dank dafür, dass ich durch dich meine Inspiration wiedergefunden habe. Ich hoffe es geht dir bald besser und du spielst weiterhin das was dir gefällt.
I think there will never be a successor of Animenz...too talent,emotion,technique and piano love in a single person to be repeated. You seem to be always better video by video, hope you the best. ❤️
Your piano covers are different from the others. Most of the youtube piano covers are turning every single note of the song into piano sound, but your covers are really joining the song with piano, not just playing the original song with the piano. That’s why I am still subscribing and I am sure I will still continue to support in the future!
The description really saddened me. I personally look forward to your uploads, and I really appreciate the time and thought that goes into your music; it really shows. Of course, you shouldn’t let your perfectionism control you, sometimes having a carefree attitude actually aids creative processes. I am so grateful I found your channel, I’m happy I get to hear you music, whether I’m listening to you playing your songs or I’m playing them myself. Don’t stress over your worth as a youtuber, the frequency at which you post at doesn’t matter, nor do your thumbnails or editing. You are an amazing youtuber, and an amazing musician, please don’t forget that!
I adore Bang Dream! And as to why people still subscribe... it’s because your playing and arranging are magical. Truly. We love just the piano, no flashy bells and whistles. Please continue uploading, at whatever pace you’d like! We’ll be waiting!!
OMG, since I found your Shakugan no Shana covers I loved your covers so much, I was 13 (2 years ago only lol), it was my first anime and deep story that I watched, and I loved to see your covers of Shakugan's songs, you always played them with so much effort and I felt it!! Then I heard about your health problems and I know I wasn't the only one worried, and NOW YOU'RE TELLING ME THAT YOU CAME WITH A KIZUNA MUSIC COVER?? I LOVE BANDORI SO MUCH, IT MADE ME CRY SO MANY TIMES, AND YOUR VERSION IS JUST MAKING MY HEART FEEL LIKE JUMPING AND SHINING!! Man, we love you, you keep doing your covers with so much effort and dedication, and if you wanted to share a feeling with them, I can tell you that you did make my heart feel it!! Stay safe and get better soon animenz ♡
Dear Animenz, I love how (in all your arrangements) every note is needed and played with clarity, and used to add to the feel of the music... never over-cluttered with notes; a perfectly planned and executed arrangement (something I could only dream of achieving). You're a true expert of the piano. Your videos are honestly the perfect advertisement to make me want to watch the featured anime, more than any anime recommender! if fact, I only started watching many anime only after hearing your beautiful arrangements, and I am very grateful to you
A lot of people are listing why they listen to your music- so I guess I will too. A tab is always open on my computer with some arrangement of yours constantly playing in the background. While I am bathing, sleeping, driving, or working I always have your pieces on. There extraordinary in a way a lot of compositions are not. Beautiful in the way that it is transfixed with classical music. It can bring me to tears at any given moment. I have never listened to anything in such a repetitive nature and your songs are the only exception. I would buy them off of apple music if I could. In all honesty, your songs are probably why I was able to get good grades in school. The melodic tones, strangely enough, made me want to be more productive in my studies. It made me want to be more competent in what I was doing. It's almost like a good luck charm at this point. I remember two years ago when I was a junior in high school, I was incredibly nervous about my AP Biology exam. It was nerve-wracking as the score I got could ultimately decide if I could get into the college I desired. Right before my exam, I had spent 4 minutes listening to your Reluctant Heroes piece. It instantly calmed me down and gave me a desire to take the test. Your music has such a positive effect on me so I ended up using you as the topic of one of my college application essays. I can't express how much your music means to me and so many other people. Thank you for all the videos you have uploaded. I will continue to listen to them for the rest of my life.
It's not surprising why we subscribe and listen to you : you've got incredible talent, genuine passion and dedication, amazing arrangement that no one else could do and this high quality music that's just so good to the ears. Loved the Nagi no Asukara ballad, I like this one as well!
It gave so much feels for me as a subscriber since the Guilty Crown era. Animenz has grown so much since back then, and I have witnessed how much changes throughout these years. Good job and all the best.
You don’t need to change a thing. Making arrangements take time, and every time you upload it is always worth the wait. I can always feel the love for music in your playing and that is something that I almost lost. It is inspiring to hear you play. It reminds me of what music can be and has made me get back into playing. I am so grateful for all the anime pianist on RUclips because I believe this music has such passion and emotion that desires to be expressed. Always pursue what you are passionate about because it is the best gift you can give to anyone. You have certainly gifted us with much more than we deserve. Thank you.
Praying for both your and Theishter's good health. You are both my favorite musicians and even if neither of you uploaded a single additional video, I'd happily listen to both of you until my last day on this planet. Wishing you nothing the best. You have profoundly affected my life and millions more.
this is so beautiful i cried. probably because while listening i imagined it being played when bandori’s final moments dawn upon us haha i regret coming a lot less frequently than i did in the past. I wish i could put in so much time and effort like you do doing arrangements or just playing the instrument in general. thank you so much as always for the lovely content animenz ;-;
Basics never fail! You are so right pal, simplicity sounds so great on piano. Being simple, using the basics and yet doing something amazing only usings the basics in one domain (piano music, or whatever kind of art or discipline) is what shows how much and how well you understand and master what you are doing. Of course there are many ways to always improve what is already really good or great, but the basics of a discipline are essential to do this discipline, without those basics there is nothing. Basics never fail, you could experience it and make us feel how fulfilling it is. Thank you very much. And you know, there is nothing to be surprised about the success of your arrangements, because special trendy videos are great but they can't compete with actual talent and hard work.

Amazing! Thank you very much for sharing this with us.
Glad to see another video, I don't mind the infrequent uploads because when I get that notification out of the blue it unexpectedly brighten up my day.
Musique is an universal language, it's by far the best way to make people feel different emotions and this feeling grow as much as the musician has talent and expressive playstyle, Thanks a lot for that, you give your contribution in this world and you do well!! (sorry for my approximative english)
It doesn't matter how long you take or how inconsistent you may think you are, for you to make such emotional and seemingly perfect arrangements is the reason we come back. 🙂
I’ve been studying piano classically for about three years now, and I just performed in my first recital a couple of weeks ago. I just wanted to take a minute to thank you, animenz, because it was you that motivated me to play piano in the first place (I want to be able to perform your version of unravel someday). Honestly I’m not sure if I ever would have picked up the instrument had it not been for your videos. I’m glad for the amount of care you put into your arrangement, and your perfectionism. It really shows through the music.
Your irregular uploads and your style are the best of you. We never know when you are going to upload, so when you do It it's one of the best surprises. You only do what you want yo do, and that means that you do your best un every song you arrange, not good thumbnails or effects, you only need your music to make us love the video
As for your question, I am subscribed, because every one of your videos makes my life better. I am not kidding, every piece of music from you is a gift I am extremely glad to be able to experience. I long for the next one, but the rarity only makes the few uploads that much more of a treasure.
People subscribe to you because of your raw talent and ability to bring such life and meaning to these songs. The aren't just anime songs...and you communicate that so well through your music. Who cares if you don't upload regularly. The videos you put out are epic, and its clear you worked very hard on each arrangement. We love you, Animenz. Keep playing (:
The reason you became successfull with your style of uploading is, that your covers are more than just some covers. Nowadays you search for "piano cover anime op xxx" and find more than 50 covers. You listen to them and think "ye, thats the song I know covered there". But you don´t stop there. Every song of you is more that "just a cover", it is infused with your passion, your skill, your emotions, with YOU. And you can hear that. That´s why people come back to you and really look forward to EVERY of your songs. They come because of the song - and stay because of you.
Just like you said there's something great about simplicity on the piano, the same can be said about your RUclips channel. There's no need to produce fancy thumbnails or over-edited videos when the product is already fantastic. Every time I see a new Animenz upload I get so excited, and honestly I can't say that about anyone else I'm subscribed to because all they do is pump out basic videos every single day. I'd rather an Animenz song once a year where I know I'm going to get a near perfect, original, and inspired arrangement than any other piano arrangement that just copies the melody and beat of the newest anime song, even if they're releasing every other day. Quality over quantity, my friend. Keep doing what you're doing. No need to doubt why you've come so far!
Your upload rate doesn’t matter when you pour your soul into the arrangements and Oh man you gave me chills like in “owari nosekai kara” and “my dearest”. Truly an animenz piece that gives to my existence a glimpse of joy. Thank you 🙏
Thanks for uploading an video again ^^ Life is stressful and such songs simplify my life! Thanks Animenz, I'll stay in this community forever 💙 You made my day \^•^/
It's that perfectionism of yours what makes I like you very much. Animenz's music has always been in every of my playlist, not this piece, then that piece. Im quite lazy when it's come to reading other people's story, yet, for some reasons I do enjoy reading yours while listening to the music. Please keep doing what you like at your own pace, cause emotion comes naturally, not forcefully. P/s: gonna replay once more lmao
The first video by you I've ever seen was the No Game No Life piano cover. It's what brought me back to playing the piano again after five years. I'm just in love with your arrangements and this featherlike gentleness your hands seems to move with. Just continue what you're doing!
Glad to see you back here!!! I met your channel when was finding "piano music" on RUclips. I heard your arrangements hundred times, and even started read Tokio Ghoul after listening "Unravel" 3 days in a row :) Your music is awesome, thank you very much for sharing your art with us!!!
Pretty sure this is quite pointless but I feel like as a follower I need to respond to the description I know there are people who follow/ subscribe to channels and expects live streams everyday, but they aren't the only types of people on RUclips. The main reason I had subscribed is probably because of your perfectionism and devotion in anime music, and I truly admire the inspiration and motivation you gave to me and a lot of other people. What you have uploaded for the past 5 years (since 2014 I think?) wasn't "just" music, but a magnificent example of how one can pursue his dreams and ignite motivation within me and others. there is no need to compare oneself to another as we are all different, we are all individual beings, and those with similar motives and behaviors will always group up, while those with different ideals forms another. What I had subscribed for was not a trillion regular updates but one splendid update refined overtime. What I had subscribed to was not only a channel that posts piano songs but to one whom deserves my full respect and recognition. What I had subscribed since 4 years ago (Should be about so, it was my old account), was not some flashy CG factory but an amazing pianist and music transcriber. So, to you or to anyone reading this, please do not feel what you are doing is pointless, everything has a meaning, let it be positive or negative, life goes on either way. So just be yourself and be proud of it, let those whose thoughts differ from yours walk away, and those with similar dreams follow you. "Everyone wants to connect with someone." (Quote from an anime, try guess (笑) ) I think this comment is already cringe and long enough so I'll end it here, I would like to thank you for all your effort and devotion onto the music you transcribed, and I, along with many people, am grateful for your music and inspiration. Thank you for reading. (don't know who would actually read this entire "comment" but thank you anyways (笑))
Post as infrequently as you want. Your "role" on youtube is bringing smiles to your listeners as we get to enjoy these beautiful pieces packed with emotion
OMG this is so AMAZING! Animenz your covers are what gave me meaning, the emotions that it gives me, when i listen to your covers i just feel motivated and that has helped me on my studies, life problems, and so much more. So i just want to say thank you so much for uploading such amazing covers and know that i will always support you
i’ve been listening to your covers ever since my freshman yr in high school. now im in college studying piano with a professor!! watching your videos was always so inspiring for me and i think it really pushed me to continue piano :) i love how your passion shines through your playing and i hope one day i can be like you ^-^ good work!!
You’ve inspired me to become a musician in the future after I graduate from college. It won’t be my main goal, but it’s something I have always wanted to try. My goal is to try and play the violin or the piano. I want you Animez to know that. I want you to know that you’re work deserves to be praised.
Thank you. :) Your arrangements all seem to come alive on their own... I'm never good with words, though my attempts at playing is so far from being able to convey feelings like yours, music was my way of smiling... I wish you well. Thank you again for such beautiful pieces...
Regarding the description: I can tell you why I subscribed. Because of Animenz and the great arrangements, nothing else. I don't want flashy thumbnails, crazy editing or trending topics and I don't even have any social media. There's plenty other places I can get those things. But there's only one Animenz channel.
MrR4ndom115 Same here.
Yepp. Quality reply there.
Can confirm
Yep only looking him play piano,it can make my body shivering OwO
i was here 🤗
I actually didn't know you uploaded today. It reminds me of back then (when we were actually uploading more) and have a coincidence when we upload on the same day. Good times. Also a beautiful arrangement. The piano/mics/arrangement lately has had a calm vibe, even melancholic sometimes. I don't know if that's on purpose or not, but there's something so special about it.
Hope to see you upload more. I'm getting back to uploading too, with songs that I actually cherish and love to listen to. Let's provide RUclips with some good piano music, like the good old days, yeah?
I still remember the crazy coincidence, when both of us was uploading a piano cover of Chuunibyou demo koi ga shitai OP on the same day - unbeknownst from each other. Really good times.
I think in RUclips terms of activity length, we both are literally the "Ojiisans" of anime piano cover channels. Only kyle landry, Marasy and a handful others have started uploading earlier and are still active until today. I hope homeone can make a nice looking diagram, showcasing the anime piano community on RUclips from 2007 to 2019. I am also looking forward to your next uploads as well!
@@Animenzzz "homeone" lol
Yeah nice words and all. But wheres the piano arrangement for the opening of demonslayer?
@@hannesye1541 idk where's yours
@@hobbit_1 calm down, it's just a typo
Now hes the real animenz, with those sleeves 😂
And then we'll know that he was Theishter
haha
@@denisxux1147 theishter has a whole different piano style
@@narurouzumaki6164 But what if Theishter is Animenz and Animenz is Theishter
@@denisxux1147 well........ you see......... bruh nigga wtf
BanDori... this makes me want to start playing it again.
Even the simplest pieces can be beautiful, if you play with emotion and soul :')
ayyy didnt knew youre also or was into it :DD
@@Sayuriii_0 same. Want to play it again bec of this :---(
@@Sayuriii_0 I played the game for about a month.
Usually I lose interest in a Mobile game after a month but Bandori is different. I really fall in love with their original songs and the excellent cast of Characters
@@Animenzzz absolutely the same😭, and I recommend you to play Blessing Chord from Roselia ✨
Teacher: The exam wont be that hard
The exam: *"Arranged by Animenz"*
Me: 🙄
That's a good one.
I think many people actually appreciate the "purity" of your activity on RUclips. No begging for likes, subscribers or patrons. No flashy visualisers or fancy end cards. The music always speaks for itself and never gets out of focus. And it's a life changing thing, your music. Be proud!
if you target guys like rousseau talking about "flashing lights" i find it unfair, he works hard aswell he developped a nice presentation but that doesn't lower his abilities.
Don't forget that not everyone can play on a grand Steinway so some have to spice things up a little bit with visuals for example
@@TheMusicalKnokcers I don't want to devalue anyone. Rousseau is an epic pianist and I enjoy his content. What you're saying is not wrong. It's all a matter of preference I guess.
There are several anime pianists and each of them has their own unique way. However, I would easily argue that Animenz is just the best anime pianist. With his level of music, there is no need for other catchy (?) aspects.
That said if we ever open his patron, I will definitely sub him without giving a second thought!
@@TheMusicalKnokcers Rousseau's channel is designed to spread classical music to the interests of other young non-classical musicians. Fancy lights are just a part of that. Everyone's channel has their own purpose and therefore caters to different audiences in different ways.
Alright, so, after listening, this really does feel like a "special" arrangement. I haven't heard the original, but hearing this it feels like it was meant to be played on piano, it sounds so pretty!!
Regarding why you got so far with youtube despite irregular uploads - the reason I think of "Animenz" in the same breath I think of anime piano music is because there really isn't anyone putting out sheet music quite like yours. The amount of classical techniques, the original ideas, the way the arrangements are so well thought out, it's just so distinctly "Animenz" and the quality is just so consistent I would wait 5 years for a new upload and just be happy that there is new music to appreciate. I guess in the same way people wait years for album releases from their favorite artists.
I don't want to drag this out too much, so long story short! I am mostly a youtube taught pianist and haven't touched classical music in 11 years. For the past 6 years, especially initially, 75% of what I played were Animenz arrangements, the rest were arrangements from theishter and kylelandry. Fast forward to this year - I got scouted by a piano professor at my college and I'm taking classical classes again, with my teacher telling me I have developed some great technique and strength, disbelieving that I have no classical repertoire at all. He forgets about it all the time lol "Do you have a Concerto in your repertoire?" "No..." (I'm not gonna tell him I could play Kuusou Mesorogiwi instead)
Playing classical music now I suddenly realized HOW much I learned just from your arrangements. You have literally taught me a ton of classical techniques without me realizing. Isn't that pretty damn cool?
Wow, this is definitely cool! Thank you for sharing your story with me! And out of all pieces, you have to pick one of the most difficult ones (空想メソロギヰ), haha. Good luck with your future classical classes!
@@Animenzzz Thank you! And I did always go for the more difficult of your arrangements even though they were initially *too* difficult a lot of the time lol, but still I stubborned my way through, and it definitely helped that I literally never get bored of hearing them!
@@Animenzzz Lol dude I've been learning your version of Kuusou from the past few months, it's one of my favorite arrangement of yours besides Colors and I think it's got some of the most badass Animenz moments ever
I especially like playing the fast chord hammers in both hands at 01:37 and that super neat and sublime 'triple' hand part that starts at 02:06 leading into the grand chord jumps in your Kuusou Mesorogiwi video
I always seem to mess up at the super fast 'out-of-sync' arpeggios at 02:40 though, really wish I could get past that as it spoils an otherwise mistake-free performance arghh X_X
I grind maybe hundreds of it in the game and I love what animenz did on this piece. It's much more mellow but it didn't lose the soul of the song.
Caliko I’m right there with you on picking his pieces that are a little beyond my reach. I remember working six months to play one song. But like you said, I just don’t get tired of them. I have recently started learning slightly easier pieces to get myself back into playing, and it has amazed me how quickly I’m learning the pieces. We just have to keep challenging ourselves, and we will grow.
Bandori from Animenz...... this was unexpected!!!
He already covered other Bandori songs though, but he didn't upload it on RUclips.
Pattrick_Star wow...never knew that...
Been Animenz fan for over five years now, and have played bandori for over two years... would love to see his other covers too!
@@racingandy You can watch it here: www.bilibili.com/video/av55649201/
Pattrick_Star ah I see...thank you!!!
@@racingandy yy6x77"
When its No Nut November but Animenz uploads a video.
😂 you truly are a genius
Hah gay
@Han Solo Thank you lol. My videos are quite old and my middle-school and early high-school ass just used my phone as a camera haha
Bandori is getting so much more attention nowadays. I'm gonna cry, I'm so proud of my girls T^T
のひよりもてほほのりよめのこそひの。ひひひひののての!!!!
So, I’ved recently lost the motivation I once had. Just couldn’t find a project to fully invest myself in but just like you have done years ago, I’ve have been motivated and inspired to finally get back to playing!
I wish you the best
The reason I am subscribed, is the quality of the music itself. The arrangements that you channel all of your perfectionism into results in something that can't be found anywhere else.
I see other anime piano channels that have been inspired by your arranging style, yet don't have the technical ability to reach your level and I occasionally see those with technical abilities that surpass your own, but can never match up to your no-compromise perfectionism when arranging.
The amount of effort invested is just too inspiring for me not to stay subscribed.
Back when you released your kancolle medley, I dropped the guitar I had been learning for 10 years and started getting piano lessons. You made it seem like a piano could do anything - It felt like I was listening to a full orchestra and then the next minute I could hear the tubas and cymbal crashes in a marching band. If the piece needed another voice to represent the song, then you would find a way to do the gymnastics with your hands to weave that extra voice into the arrangement.
To this day, even some of the easier arrangements are too difficult and are things I look forward to learning down the line. The only arrangement of yours I have learnt so far is 'Blessing' from 'Kamisama no Inai Nichiyoubi'.
For me, frequent uploads and relevant songs are not important. The music that is inspiring to you, enough that you put your everything into it, will always result in the best video in my opinion.
Thank you for keeping me inspired over the years.
I still regard my Kancolle piano medley as one of the best arrangements I have ever written in terms of both musicality and technique. Happy to hear that you enjoyed it as well!
Everyday World first part looks playable. I'm trying to play and it's not that hard, except the final part of the ballad.
The actual speedy part is hell though. I was there for the ballad anyway!
Ahh I can hear kasumi,saaya,Rimi,o-tae and arisa voice on that piano tone ~
Same. I can hear all the lyrics in my head as he plays. I like his style of playing that still keeps the energy of the song, but he does it in a very cool way.
Bang dream music covers at it's best
Same...
Especially the TODOKEYOU~
This arrangement of Kizuna Music literally bond peoples with music
Animenz, your playing is the reason we subscribed. I found inspiration to fully immerse myself in piano and really focus on it and have motivation to continue playing because of your music. I’m sure that’s the case with many others as well. We don’t need flashy thumbnails, or clickbaity title, or a regular upload schedule. Animenz is the part of the internet that’s genuine about their work and is where people like us can stem their inspiration and motivation from. You have a certain style of playing - something that’s like you are being carried off; whisked away in the music and transported in that scene where the music is. Such magic doesn’t need anything to show that.
That was really well put together, thank you very much for your feedback! I will continue doing my best.
If only I could play the piano as fast as I pressed on this notification I would be able to play animenz pieces
Have you thought about practicing? PS: I know it's a joke, but a lot of peope read these type of comments and think it's impossible to learn these pieces, hence they might not start to play piano, or dont try out these pieces, which is a shame.
if only i could actually play a fucking piano
@@Sportwagenfreak1998 I own an electric piano. And once you get a piece down slowly, you can play it faster. Tho fast isnt the same as accurate. I don't have bad coordination. But I would say anyone with a sense of rythm and harmony can play almost anything with enough time.
@@MrMeasaftw Yep, like. I know I often give up on playing pieces because they are too hard. But I already know some that are harder.. It's just that I spent a lot of time learning those and I don't give myself that much time these days. It may be slow but if you take the time you can learn something that you thought was above you.
If you can play it slow, you can play it fast
this is no man
he lost his humanity when he sold his soul for those piano skills no ordinary human can be this good
Seller got ripped off
"I gave up my humanity JoJo!!"
Whoa wasn't expecting to see Bandori on here.
Great to see you back! Quality > Quantity is what I always believe in (and all your covers are just lit)
I really enjoyed this arrangement with the re-imagination of the entire piece, that brings the music out in a different, but a really impactful way.
Can’t wait to hear more arrangements!
P.S. Also, dang you’ve slimmed down a lot, stay healthy :3
since I moved to Japan few months ago, I think its the Japanese cuisine causing me to slim down so much. Compared to German food size, it's considerably smaller
You don't upload often but I know that each upload is something I can repeatedly listen to for ages and not get bored of
By the way, 4:10 replay button for anyone that is in love with that part as much as I am.
@@Sekaro297 It's so beautiful
Animenz, I will never stop watching you and love your music. You give us your passion, and you give me inspiration to do my best too.
despite all the difficulties.
Thank you, my Idol, I love you
Thank you for always uploading out-of-this-world content!
Its a pleasure to hear from you.
You giving me Goosebumps over and over again.
As a fellow Bandori fan and anime pianist, this cover could not made me happier. Bandori is truly a great franchise, and I’m happy to see someone as big as you showing people all these beautiful Bandori piano cover. Kizuna Music is my favorite song ever, the meaning behind the song, the story and bonds each member shares, the gorgeous vocals. It’s all represented in this ballad version extremely well.
Thank you so much Animenz, I have so many things I want to say about this masterpiece, but I can say one thing clear. Thank you
I watched many of your Bandori piano cover videos as well! I especially like your 八月if - piano cover! I always pick Kizuna music as the last song when I go to Karaoke btw. It's really just that good
Santa : what is your wish child?
Child: I want a dragon
Santa: Thats impossible make another wish
Child: I wish I can play like animenz
Santa: What colour do u want your dragon to be again?
Nice joke man
I started playing BanG Dream in early 2018 when the English version first released. BanG Dream as a series has meant so so much to me and Kizuna Music is one of those songs that always gives me goosebumps no matter how many times I listen to it. This piano arrangement honestly made me tear up a bit at multiple points, I was just so overwhelmed by emotion. I hope you do more BanG Dream arrangements in the future! I'll always love what you do
1. That was a fast week ! lmao not complaining tho xD
2. "To be honest, I am still surprised how someone "un-RUclips-ish" like me has made it so far (笑)
I mean, I don't have proper thumbnails, my video editing is basic, I don't follow trending topics, my social media management is infrequent, my upload rate is a joke...
And yet, 1.5 Million people has subscribed me."
I'm pretty sure those 1.5 million subscribed because of the high quality and will always await a new upload no matter how long you take to make one, me included (and yes I read description before watching the video)
3. I see that you remembered to wear long sleeve this time xD
4. I always love it when you add runs like these 0:11 to your arrangements ! they sound really amazing
5. 1:43 it wouldn't be an Animenz arrangement without 3-hand technique lol
6. 2:33 I'm impressed with that right hand, I like it
7. 2:58 that was close ! xD
8. 5:42 holy shit that last chorus ! I didn't expect you to go that wild considering the overall arrangement is very calm lol so it was a nice constrast and I loved every second of this video :)
I hope to see more of you in the future
You noticed that right hand almost miss at 2:58? You truly have detective eyes, (笑) I think I mistook the next phrase for an octave higher and quickly realized the mistake and corrected my hand position.
Be a perfectionist. Take your time with your arrangements. I'll happily wait. Thank you.
What? New animenz content? Yay!
You are the biggest inspiration i ever had. We aint need no fancy thumbnails or stuff, ur most amazing covers is enough. Keep it up..
音が美しく染み渡り。情景が溶け込むように感じられるよ…綺麗だ。
It's so beautiful and touching...i actually started to cry. Thank you for this arrangement! 🥺❤
Awesome cover again! I love the way you take a song, distill the main themes from it, and build a new song around those parts. It feels distinct from the original but still true to the feel of the song. My favorite part of this one is the part you play on your right hand at 1:43. It complements the main melody really well. I wouldn't worry about the "regular" RUclips stuff. It's mesmerizing just watching your hands on the piano. Looking forward to the next upload!
Excellent arrangement! Great performance! 🎶👏👍
I was lucky enough to get a front row center seat to Popipa's Acoustic Mini Live at CharaExpo USA 2019 last weekend, and I must say, their acoustic arrangement of Kizuna Music is something I will never forget. It was so powerful and I haven't stopped thinking about it all week.
Today, I came across this video of yours and I can't help but want to show Popipa this piano arrangement. I think that they would be so happy to know that the music they perform has inspired such an amazing arrangement. It really made me feel like I was sitting in the same front row seat when I closed my eyes. While I may very well never get to experience acoustic Kizuna Music by Popipa live again, I can always come back here to recover my memories.
Thank you for spending so much time and love into arranging, performing and uploading this video. As a fan of yours for 2 years now, I look forward to seeing what amazing arrangements are next to come!
Animenz posting semiregularly. The greatest gift we can be given
I was JUST listening to HERE thinking "I wonder when Animenz is gonna upload again" the timing!!
Seeing the premier was very cool! You’ve inspired a lot of people with your playing, keep it up:)❤️
Kizuna Music is one of my favorite songs in BanG Dream too! This song just fills people with all the hope they need when they're down. When I learned that you played the game too, I wondered for a long time if you'd ever cover a song from any of the bands. Then today happened. Today is a good day. Despite your random upload rate, I always found the quality of each upload to be top notch. I like how your videos are very basic in terms of editing, since it reminds me of how it's like attending a concert. It's simple, but everybody's waiting in anticipation for the music to start. Having good edits definitely can make a video fun to watch, but a video with simple edits here and there for covers also has its own advantages. The last thing I want to say is that the journey in this song is one we all can connect to. It's pretty fitting considering the title of the song. We've all got our ups and downs, but in the end, we keep on moving.
I don't think that anybody subbed to you cares about wether or not you focus on seasonal pieces. Everything you make sounds beautiful, and we will always continue appreciate it. Please continue to follow your heart with your compositions, that's why we love them.
All of his arrangements are truly amazing, but this is the first one in quite a while that really felt like animenz. The arrangement style is so unique and perfect. So glad his uploading somewhat consistently again. Been listening to these for quite a few years and I'll keep listening as long as he keeps making them.
I also read a lot in the comments that my videos "sounds like typical Animenz", but even I myself I still don't fully understood what it means yet, haha. I guess my fans knows it even better than me.
@@Animenzzz well it's the character of you that you put into that music. When you arrange and when you play you arrange it with your knowledge of music theory but you also put in your emotion, tears, etc into that arrangement. That part of you makes us feel that "Animenz feeling" we know it's your music because we recognize your character in that Piece. Everytime its different tho because you never feel the same ^-^
Really missed these arrangements. That’s why I never regretted subscribing to you. Doesn’t matter how Long it takes as Long as you live your dream and we get to listen to your beautiful arrangements
We subscribe to you and support you because we honestly love the effort and love you put into your music and seeing you upload makes all of our days a little better if not alot.
We loyal fans will continue to support you no matter how messy your upload schedule gets, so continue being the amazing perfectionist you are❤️❣️🙃
I think the most important part is that you have fun with what you're doing. I am grateful for every arrangement you are sharing.
Sometimes i don't feel like practicing the piano but then you upload a song and i remember why i started and how i felt in love with the piano and i continue and all that because of you ! I love you!
Ich kann nur sagen, dass jedes einzelne Arrangement etwas sehr Besonderes für mich ist. Ob es nun eine Woche oder ein Jahr dauert bis zum nächsten Video spielt keine Rolle für mich. In dem Moment in dem ich ein neues Video sehe lasse ich alles stehen und liegen um es mir anzuhören. Das wird sich niemals ändern. Eine meiner schönsten Erinnerungen in meinem Leben ist das Konzert in Berlin. Ohne deine emotionsreichen und anspruchsvollen Arrangements hätte ich vielleicht schon vor Jahren aufgehört Klavier zu spielen. In der Zeit bin ich auf deinen Channel gestoßen und seitdem haben sich meine Fähigkeiten deutlich verbessert. Vielen vielen Dank dafür, dass ich durch dich meine Inspiration wiedergefunden habe. Ich hoffe es geht dir bald besser und du spielst weiterhin das was dir gefällt.
I think there will never be a successor of Animenz...too talent,emotion,technique and piano love in a single person to be repeated.
You seem to be always better video by video, hope you the best. ❤️
Your piano covers are different from the others. Most of the youtube piano covers are turning every single note of the song into piano sound, but your covers are really joining the song with piano, not just playing the original song with the piano. That’s why I am still subscribing and I am sure I will still continue to support in the future!
I never expected Animenz to arrange a bandori song. Love it.
The description really saddened me. I personally look forward to your uploads, and I really appreciate the time and thought that goes into your music; it really shows. Of course, you shouldn’t let your perfectionism control you, sometimes having a carefree attitude actually aids creative processes. I am so grateful I found your channel, I’m happy I get to hear you music, whether I’m listening to you playing your songs or I’m playing them myself. Don’t stress over your worth as a youtuber, the frequency at which you post at doesn’t matter, nor do your thumbnails or editing. You are an amazing youtuber, and an amazing musician, please don’t forget that!
I adore Bang Dream! And as to why people still subscribe... it’s because your playing and arranging are magical. Truly. We love just the piano, no flashy bells and whistles. Please continue uploading, at whatever pace you’d like! We’ll be waiting!!
wow Animenz, your piano sheets are so great !!!
original version : i feel so pumped up
Animenz version : i pause every 20 second just to cry
OMG, since I found your Shakugan no Shana covers I loved your covers so much, I was 13 (2 years ago only lol), it was my first anime and deep story that I watched, and I loved to see your covers of Shakugan's songs, you always played them with so much effort and I felt it!!
Then I heard about your health problems and I know I wasn't the only one worried, and NOW YOU'RE TELLING ME THAT YOU CAME WITH A KIZUNA MUSIC COVER?? I LOVE BANDORI SO MUCH, IT MADE ME CRY SO MANY TIMES, AND YOUR VERSION IS JUST MAKING MY HEART FEEL LIKE JUMPING AND SHINING!! Man, we love you, you keep doing your covers with so much effort and dedication, and if you wanted to share a feeling with them, I can tell you that you did make my heart feel it!! Stay safe and get better soon animenz ♡
Dear Animenz, I love how (in all your arrangements) every note is needed and played with clarity, and used to add to the feel of the music... never over-cluttered with notes; a perfectly planned and executed arrangement (something I could only dream of achieving). You're a true expert of the piano. Your videos are honestly the perfect advertisement to make me want to watch the featured anime, more than any anime recommender! if fact, I only started watching many anime only after hearing your beautiful arrangements, and I am very grateful to you
A lot of people are listing why they listen to your music- so I guess I will too.
A tab is always open on my computer with some arrangement of yours constantly playing in the background. While I am bathing, sleeping, driving, or working I always have your pieces on. There extraordinary in a way a lot of compositions are not. Beautiful in the way that it is transfixed with classical music. It can bring me to tears at any given moment. I have never listened to anything in such a repetitive nature and your songs are the only exception. I would buy them off of apple music if I could.
In all honesty, your songs are probably why I was able to get good grades in school. The melodic tones, strangely enough, made me want to be more productive in my studies. It made me want to be more competent in what I was doing. It's almost like a good luck charm at this point. I remember two years ago when I was a junior in high school, I was incredibly nervous about my AP Biology exam. It was nerve-wracking as the score I got could ultimately decide if I could get into the college I desired. Right before my exam, I had spent 4 minutes listening to your Reluctant Heroes piece. It instantly calmed me down and gave me a desire to take the test.
Your music has such a positive effect on me so I ended up using you as the topic of one of my college application essays. I can't express how much your music means to me and so many other people.
Thank you for all the videos you have uploaded. I will continue to listen to them for the rest of my life.
오프닝노래인데 어딘가 엔딩곡처럼 느껴진다... 애니메이션2기 마지막화에 나올법한 편곡...! 너무 좋아요~~~
Simplicity in your editing let us focus on your music and appreciate it. This as no price. Thank you !
It's not surprising why we subscribe and listen to you : you've got incredible talent, genuine passion and dedication, amazing arrangement that no one else could do and this high quality music that's just so good to the ears.
Loved the Nagi no Asukara ballad, I like this one as well!
It gave so much feels for me as a subscriber since the Guilty Crown era. Animenz has grown so much since back then, and I have witnessed how much changes throughout these years. Good job and all the best.
It is always a pleasure to see you and hear you play the piano buddy.
You don’t need to change a thing. Making arrangements take time, and every time you upload it is always worth the wait. I can always feel the love for music in your playing and that is something that I almost lost. It is inspiring to hear you play. It reminds me of what music can be and has made me get back into playing. I am so grateful for all the anime pianist on RUclips because I believe this music has such passion and emotion that desires to be expressed. Always pursue what you are passionate about because it is the best gift you can give to anyone. You have certainly gifted us with much more than we deserve. Thank you.
Praying for both your and Theishter's good health. You are both my favorite musicians and even if neither of you uploaded a single additional video, I'd happily listen to both of you until my last day on this planet. Wishing you nothing the best. You have profoundly affected my life and millions more.
this is so beautiful i cried. probably because while listening i imagined it being played when bandori’s final moments dawn upon us haha i regret coming a lot less frequently than i did in the past. I wish i could put in so much time and effort like you do doing arrangements or just playing the instrument in general. thank you so much as always for the lovely content animenz ;-;
no way i didnt think animenz would play bandori- this is amazing!!
Basics never fail! You are so right pal, simplicity sounds so great on piano. Being simple, using the basics and yet doing something amazing only usings the basics in one domain (piano music, or whatever kind of art or discipline) is what shows how much and how well you understand and master what you are doing. Of course there are many ways to always improve what is already really good or great, but the basics of a discipline are essential to do this discipline, without those basics there is nothing.
Basics never fail, you could experience it and make us feel how fulfilling it is. Thank you very much.
And you know, there is nothing to be surprised about the success of your arrangements, because special trendy videos are great but they can't compete with actual talent and hard work.
Amazing! Thank you very much for sharing this with us.
I can't wait for the day that this is played at one of your live concerts!
Glad to see another video, I don't mind the infrequent uploads because when I get that notification out of the blue it unexpectedly brighten up my day.
I Love how animenz is a conplete degenerate and also one of the most talented pianists :)
can't wait for the sheet music and the MIDI
I love how Animenz always does fancy things with his hands at the end 😊
Musique is an universal language, it's by far the best way to make people feel different emotions and this feeling grow as much as the musician has talent and expressive playstyle, Thanks a lot for that, you give your contribution in this world and you do well!!
(sorry for my approximative english)
You uploaded after quite some time...Always feels good to see you play...Please dont stop uploading...
It doesn't matter how long you take or how inconsistent you may think you are, for you to make such emotional and seemingly perfect arrangements is the reason we come back. 🙂
You'll always be loved Animenz. I mean, your covers and even your original music gives us so much inspiration.
バンドリのカバーめっさ嬉しい!!
I am glad that you covered this song!!!
I’ve been studying piano classically for about three years now, and I just performed in my first recital a couple of weeks ago. I just wanted to take a minute to thank you, animenz, because it was you that motivated me to play piano in the first place (I want to be able to perform your version of unravel someday). Honestly I’m not sure if I ever would have picked up the instrument had it not been for your videos.
I’m glad for the amount of care you put into your arrangement, and your perfectionism. It really shows through the music.
Your irregular uploads and your style are the best of you. We never know when you are going to upload, so when you do It it's one of the best surprises. You only do what you want yo do, and that means that you do your best un every song you arrange, not good thumbnails or effects, you only need your music to make us love the video
thanks for just letting us hear so much good covers you make.
there will always be people that love what you do, please don't stop.
As for your question, I am subscribed, because every one of your videos makes my life better.
I am not kidding, every piece of music from you is a gift I am extremely glad to be able to experience.
I long for the next one, but the rarity only makes the few uploads that much more of a treasure.
People subscribe to you because of your raw talent and ability to bring such life and meaning to these songs. The aren't just anime songs...and you communicate that so well through your music.
Who cares if you don't upload regularly. The videos you put out are epic, and its clear you worked very hard on each arrangement.
We love you, Animenz.
Keep playing (:
The reason you became successfull with your style of uploading is, that your covers are more than just some covers. Nowadays you search for "piano cover anime op xxx" and find more than 50 covers. You listen to them and think "ye, thats the song I know covered there". But you don´t stop there. Every song of you is more that "just a cover", it is infused with your passion, your skill, your emotions, with YOU. And you can hear that. That´s why people come back to you and really look forward to EVERY of your songs. They come because of the song - and stay because of you.
I never thought I'd see the day Animenz would make a cover of a Bang Dream song, this is just too cool!
Just like you said there's something great about simplicity on the piano, the same can be said about your RUclips channel. There's no need to produce fancy thumbnails or over-edited videos when the product is already fantastic. Every time I see a new Animenz upload I get so excited, and honestly I can't say that about anyone else I'm subscribed to because all they do is pump out basic videos every single day. I'd rather an Animenz song once a year where I know I'm going to get a near perfect, original, and inspired arrangement than any other piano arrangement that just copies the melody and beat of the newest anime song, even if they're releasing every other day. Quality over quantity, my friend. Keep doing what you're doing. No need to doubt why you've come so far!
Your upload rate doesn’t matter when you pour your soul into the arrangements and Oh man you gave me chills like in “owari nosekai kara” and “my dearest”. Truly an animenz piece that gives to my existence a glimpse of joy. Thank you 🙏
Thanks for uploading an video again ^^
Life is stressful and such songs simplify my life!
Thanks Animenz, I'll stay in this community forever 💙
You made my day \^•^/
I’m so glad you’ve joined the Bandori train and also the gacha hell haha. This is fantastic!
It's that perfectionism of yours what makes I like you very much. Animenz's music has always been in every of my playlist, not this piece, then that piece. Im quite lazy when it's come to reading other people's story, yet, for some reasons I do enjoy reading yours while listening to the music. Please keep doing what you like at your own pace, cause emotion comes naturally, not forcefully.
P/s: gonna replay once more lmao
The first video by you I've ever seen was the No Game No Life piano cover. It's what brought me back to playing the piano again after five years.
I'm just in love with your arrangements and this featherlike gentleness your hands seems to move with.
Just continue what you're doing!
Glad to see you back here!!! I met your channel when was finding "piano music" on RUclips. I heard your arrangements hundred times, and even started read Tokio Ghoul after listening "Unravel" 3 days in a row :) Your music is awesome, thank you very much for sharing your art with us!!!
It's been a long since Animenz upload his arrangement, and I did not see a Bang Dream song coming! Absolute happiness for me right now!
Pretty sure this is quite pointless but I feel like as a follower I need to respond to the description
I know there are people who follow/ subscribe to channels and expects live streams everyday, but they aren't the only types of people on RUclips.
The main reason I had subscribed is probably because of your perfectionism and devotion in anime music, and I truly admire the inspiration and motivation you gave to me and a lot of other people.
What you have uploaded for the past 5 years (since 2014 I think?) wasn't "just" music, but a magnificent example of how one can pursue his dreams and ignite motivation within me and others.
there is no need to compare oneself to another as we are all different, we are all individual beings, and those with similar motives and behaviors will always group up, while those with different ideals forms another.
What I had subscribed for was not a trillion regular updates but one splendid update refined overtime.
What I had subscribed to was not only a channel that posts piano songs but to one whom deserves my full respect and recognition.
What I had subscribed since 4 years ago (Should be about so, it was my old account), was not some flashy CG factory but an amazing pianist and music transcriber.
So, to you or to anyone reading this, please do not feel what you are doing is pointless, everything has a meaning, let it be positive or negative, life goes on either way. So just be yourself and be proud of it, let those whose thoughts differ from yours walk away, and those with similar dreams follow you. "Everyone wants to connect with someone." (Quote from an anime, try guess (笑) )
I think this comment is already cringe and long enough so I'll end it here, I would like to thank you for all your effort and devotion onto the music you transcribed, and I, along with many people, am grateful for your music and inspiration.
Thank you for reading. (don't know who would actually read this entire "comment" but thank you anyways (笑))
Post as infrequently as you want. Your "role" on youtube is bringing smiles to your listeners as we get to enjoy these beautiful pieces packed with emotion
OMG this is so AMAZING!
Animenz your covers are what gave me meaning, the emotions that it gives me, when i listen to your covers i just feel motivated and that has helped me on my studies, life problems, and so much more. So i just want to say thank you so much for uploading such amazing covers and know that i will always support you
I love the Bang Dream, the game, and this cover. This cover gives nostalgia of me trying to full combo every song I could...
i’ve been listening to your covers ever since my freshman yr in high school. now im in college studying piano with a professor!! watching your videos was always so inspiring for me and i think it really pushed me to continue piano :) i love how your passion shines through your playing and i hope one day i can be like you ^-^ good work!!
You’ve inspired me to become a musician in the future after I graduate from college. It won’t be my main goal, but it’s something I have always wanted to try. My goal is to try and play the violin or the piano. I want you Animez to know that. I want you to know that you’re work deserves to be praised.
Thank you. :)
Your arrangements all seem to come alive on their own...
I'm never good with words, though my attempts at playing is so far from being able to convey feelings like yours, music was my way of smiling...
I wish you well.
Thank you again for such beautiful pieces...
the legend plays Bandori... I BOW TO YOU OMG THANK you I LOVE BANDORI
The amount of gratitude I have for you is undescribable. Thank you for changing my life.
