Ao no Sumika (Where Our Blue is) - Jujutsu Kaisen S2 OP1 [Piano] / Tatsuya Kitani
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 29 сен 2024
- This is my piano arrangement of Ao no Sumika - the first OP theme of Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 by Tatsuya Kitani. It’s definitely one of my favorite Anime OP songs in 2023 because I simply love how “blue” the song is: The sudden quiet dynamics in the intro 0:04, the endless calm atmosphere in the verse 0:10, the subtle “school bells” echoing in the bridge 1:53. It’s like the music is inviting us to dive into a clear blue summer sky and I tried to capture the “blue” atmosphere in the piano as much as possible.
① Allowing the piano to “breathe”
I included many horizontal movements in the piano to give the piano a vast and open texture, mirroring the “blue” atmosphere of the original song. For example, in the first verse 0:10 the left hand is playing a subtle counter melody without being too rhythmic. And in the 2nd verse 1:28, the right hand is playing an ornamentation in a very high range without interfering with the main melody too much.
② The true MVP of the powerful chorus melody
The unique left-hand pattern played an important role in the chorus 0:48. I wanted to emphasize the syncopation of the drums as much as possible and as a result I used precise pedaling to give the left hand a short moment of pause before each syncopation. There is always a lot of trial and error involved to find the best pattern for the left hand. But once I can “hear” the original song with the left hand alone, it’s a good accompaniment.
③ Finale: From Blue to Purple
Since the atmosphere of the song is “blue”, I let the piano soar into the blue sky in 3:13 by playing a seemingly endless scale which goes higher and higher. It ends with an “open” chord Gbmaj7 (IV) in 3:20, which is quite rare for my arrangement because I usually end with a Tonic chord (I). But in this case, the “open” chord is perfect to make the arrangement sound “infinite”. Which means, the arrangement has finally reached new limitless state - Hollow Technique: Purple.
Last but not least, have you noticed the genius sound direction in episode 5? The “applause” sound has been haunting Geto for a long time after his failed mission and I love how they overlapped the sound of the showers and the rain drops with the sound of applause in certain scenes. It’s an excellent depiction of Geto's deteriorating mental state by using that cursed “applause” sound. I hope we can look forward for more of these creative sound direction in future Jujutsu Kaisen episodes!
Alright, that would be everything for today. In every new upload I try to explain my arranging philosophy a little bit and I hope other pianist might find it helpful to create their own arrangement.
See you next time again!
Animenz

I am really addicted to this song. It's just so good, haha
Also, I cannot get Toji Fushiguro's voice out of my head (you know which video on YT I am talking about 😂)
Toji about to start singing with this one 🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥
Thank you animenz
The addiction is real… 😅😂
@@Cyclically We're dodging child support with this one 🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥
🔵🔵🔵
I can't listen to this song without hearing Toji singing it...
Ok
literally watched that video yesterday
It’s the same for me when it comes to Yoru Ni Kakeru. I will always hear John Cena when I listen to it.
...while beating the shit out of everyone
I feel you. That video is just too cursed and too awesome
今まで聞いた青のすみかのピアノ演奏の中で1番素晴らしい、、!!泣きそうになった😢😭大好きです😍😘
This song is so beautiful, I remember hearing it for the first time and just being in absolute awe. It sounds so happy, so carefree... And that's what hidden inventory arc is about isn't it? How things used to be so carefree before everything went wrong. They truly had me fooled with this beautiful intro song.
You did an amazing job with this!! Thank you for this beautiful version 💖
I want to listen to 'more than words' your performance..
Yeeeeeeeeeeeeees!!!!!!! IT's happening
I just love this song so much, thanks for making such a perfect rendition of it!
Please also cover Frieren ED!! Its really awesome
スペシャルズ聴きたいです!

Underrated comment
Lol
Really underrated lol
Legend has it that if you get all 10 Animenz fingers, you become the strongest anime pianist in history.

WE KILLING OUR BEST FRIEND WITH THIS ONE 🗣🗣🗣💯💯💯🔥🔥
WE COMMITING GENOCIDE WHIT THIS ONE🔥
This is actually the best piano version of this song I've ever heard
Yeah, Animenz does that
This man NEEDS to make a video about how he arranges these pieces cuz gawd dayum they're so precise.
Dayum right
I remember years ago he used to have a blog or something where he posted at least once about how he arranges pieces. Can’t find it anymore. But yeah if he published a book about it I would buy that shit at light speed
@@connorpen oooo i might try to find that blogpost, ive really been trying to play by js hearing and i cant even seem to start
@@kartheesh6913 I’ve tried playing by ear and only got one note right
most relatable feeling@@The_Emperor823
YOOOO HES ACTUALLY DOING IT
the chorus of this song goes so unfathomably hard that i've always wanted animenz to arrange this song, and here it is!!
how is the like to reply ratio on this comment is 309-1
This song is a love letter from Satoru Gojo to Suguru Geto.
May nothing ever ruin their friendship.
100% agree with that. The lyrics is essentially a love letter.
Especially the "Sayonara" in 2:32 - so heartbreaking...
@@Animenzzzyo aminenz send me a piano plz
@@DJKHALED74629 why would he
the bromance is real
@@a.kzestos2085because i asked nicely
個人的にこの方の青のすみかが原曲にいちばん近いと思う。ピアノだけなのにあの儚さとか疾走感、迫力、全部が表現されててすごい。
Ты полностью прав(а), у меня абсолютный слух и я слышу как там всё четко играется, я очень сильно хочу что бы у него были ноты именно на такую мелодию😇
形容し難いけど、この曲は日本の夏、青春、そしてどこか切なさが混合してる。聞くだけで自分にとって一番好きだった頃の夏に戻れる神曲
適当言ってんじゃねぇよ

God his arrangements are always the most true-to-original and fullest sounding of all the youtube arrangers
Hidden Inventory Arc has been great. I love how Gojo's backstory was handled.
Honestly Hidden Inventory is by far my favorite part of S2.
The Shibuya arc has been boring to me for months now, too many fights in a row and the animation is too irregular for my taste (MAPPA'S fault for exploiting their animators).
Gojo and Geto
@@_syzygy_ I feel bad for the “MAPPA slaves” as they’re called (Shibuya was pretty fun in my opinion I was waiting for Sukuna vs Mahoraga for a while)
@@_syzygy_bait used to be believable 😂
@@xEcuador1 yeah, people out there having different tastes than yours is unbelievable bro i agree
I'm learning the whole piece but so far can only play up to 0:22
Same but how far are you currently?
I never noticed 1:53 mirrored school bells! You are so creative Animenz!!!!!
It's in the songggg and i love that you noticed it too 😍❤️ i was waiting for someone to notice it
Reverse school bells technique
大人の五条先生が抱き続ける大切な思い出を、人知れず偲び曇らないように磨き続けているような演奏で、泣きそうになります。ありがとうございます……
Nice! Honestly SPECIALZ deserves a cover too, but I love both OPs so this is more than enough. (Also SPECIALZ would probably be kinda tough)
lol he just said that was his next cover, lucky
Can't wait for that!!!!! It would be really SPECIAL!!!
@@_FrozenPotato_Whered he say that
@@Spydrco during the premiere in chat
@@_FrozenPotato_ hype
You really captured the vibe of the OG nicely with this one! Just the first 10 seconds alone are already so PERFECTLY done, I can't get enough of it!
JJK season 2 has been one of the biggest surprises for me this year. Like , I knew the manga readers had been hyping it up but I didn't expect it to be _THIS_ peak!
I like the repeated arpeggio at the end (3:17). I think it just represents the scene at the end of Ep5, when Gojo woke up from the long dream (his memories of the past)
will you cover Specialz of king gnu~~~
It's currently my best op !!
賛成!
Ur wishes got granted lol
You are a hero for wishing it
start from 2:20 let me open my piano at the midnight and start to disturb my neighbour
アレンジ丁寧すぎて大好きです…
紅白の前にピアノで聴けて嬉しいな
I just realized how good this is on piano
Sorry Tatsuya, Toji’s voice all the way 😢
This is my preferred OP of the two for the season... the song and visuals just captures the flashback arc so well.
The act of applause is an acclamation of the soul! 👏
Where is our blue with the blue globe can you please tour in chicago as well well please bring hiroyuki sawano with you

"Ain't no party like a Diddy party"🗣🔥
Finally!!!!!!
Thank you so much animenz for covering my favorite jujutsu kaisen song!!!!
Even since the song came out, I really thought that it will be great to hear this as your piano arrangement!
I have 4 days left until end of year final exams and this video really cheers me up!!!
Again, thank you so much, animenz.
You’re my motivation for playing the piano!
❤❤❤❤❤
frick yeaaaaaa! good luck on ur exams dude!
I feel you, I'm about to take mine in a few days too
@@krusher737 let’s go! You can do it!!!
@@taymzmz7832 thanks!!!
yooo mine are starting as well! Goodluck to you !!
Okay playing his arrangements is like mastering reverse curse technique red or blue, but COMPOSING THEM, that’s like mastering murasaki. Oh my goodness
SPECIALZもやって欲しいです!
I wish you'll do an arrangement for the ending (more than words)such a beautiful song😩🫀
give it a like so he can see it and give us another masterpiece🔥🔥🌍
Also i just want to say animenz you are a living legend i envy those who went to your live auditions 💔 but i'm also very lucky to live at the same time as you 🫀you brought something new to our lives which is the art of piano🎹 and music 🎶 thank you so much...
ピアノにするとよりキレイだなぁ
アニメンズさんのアレンジもすごい好き
このオープニングの呪術廻戦が放送されてしばらく経っていたので、この曲のアップロードは無いと思っていたけど、不意打ちを食らった!!Animenzアレンジを聞きたいと強く思っていた曲なので聞けてめちゃくちゃ嬉しいです!!
0:49 is really cool
主様と呪術廻戦が大好きです。
Specialzも、ぜひお願いいたします。
Satoru & Suguru's blue spring always living rent free in our hearts :") Thank you for the beautiful cover!
Animenz probably sit's down to watch JJK season 2 for like the 21st time and say's to himself, "I'm gonna play that song" and just like that can play it. (This applies to any anime as well).
Another banger in the books! Glad to hear another cover from you so soon 😊 I've yet to watch JJK but i can definitely feel the raw energy and funk that this OP (and of course the OG season 1 ) convey.
Please do a fukashigi no carte arrangement!
この曲を貴方の演奏で聴きたかった!ありがとうございます!たくさん聴きます🎧
BRO THE PIANO STARTED TO SING HOLY SHIT 🗣️🔥🔥🔥
Fr 🔥🔥
I really wish my parent ever grant me a piano or maybe keyboard... But i just never... I just hope that my talent wont ever go waste until i actually had the money to buy all musical instrument for my pleasure... But it all will never feel the same since i wont be able to play it more if i ever get a job that could afford good income... Everything will turn out be more busy ... And well i hope my children will inherited this talent... Then i wont make then feeling lost like how im losing my will ... Having talent for the wrong kind of family...
My fathers is a musician... But he dieds when i was 7 ... So my mom had to keep us by herself... Until i was 10 years old that i discovered play by listening... Only play musical instrument at the church... Never had one for myself... I just... Never had the chance to developed my skill when im feeling the most... Too bad... This never came to my life...
この方のアレンジ好きすぎて何回も聴いてる😊
What the hellllllll?!?! Another Animenz cover before the end of the year?!?!?!?! Dude, this is seriously incredible. Like, what can I say? This one is soo frickin' perfect. Imagine having another cover before january, it'd be insane!! Animenz, much love from here. GAMBARE GAMBARE!
こんなに全ての作りが丁寧な作品を初めて見た。有難うございます。
It would be grateful if you could play peace sign!
Are you the best ani-pianist because you're Animenz? Or are you Animenz because you're the best ani-pianist?
OHHH DAMN. I THOUGHT YOU WONT MAKE THIS😭
Specialz or we riot!
Hey look I was right!
I'm a piano novice... how much practice/learning would it take to play this? Not necessarily amazingly like here but just to play it ya know
I've just decided to learn music theory, I hope I can be this amazing in the future, I know there's prob alot of things that will make me wanna go "dam bro im garbage I should just stop trying" but I'll do my best, wish me luck 🤞
Animenz, this is truly beautiful. I need this on Spotify so baddd 🥲
SPECIALZ Next?
(I’ve been listening to it everyday I can’t get it out of my head)
I have heard several types of piano covers of Specialz, unfortunately, none of them can make me satisfied. Therefore, I'm looking forward to a bright new piano covers released by Animenz
방패 용사 성공담 S3 OP MADKID - SIN 피아노로 연주해주세용!!
i feel bad for animenz because it seems like he's pregnant 24/7 since he always delivers
Now heres a domain expansion I don't mind staying in
音楽詳しくない人間だけど、原曲のサビは四つ打ちで疾走感を演出してるところを、あえてタメたり音の余白を作ってるのが本当に好き。
Please make a cover on MEMORIES - One piece
待ってました!!!青のすみかああああああああああ!!!!!うれしいいいい
Me hearing Toji Fushiguro AI singing this song in my head and not Tatsuya Kitani😂
Will we ever get to see Animenz livestream again? Cuz I kinda miss it
Petition for animenz to cover "call your name " from AOT
now that I can comment (I can't use youtube comment in my phone for some reason), YES the addiction to this song is real.
I even had to unlike to like it again, I wish there was a big LIKE feature that you can only give once per week, or an award of some sort. I would give my award to animenz every time he uploads
Bro fr used his domain expansion for this pearl of the internet
Why doesn’t Animenz shoot in 4K60FPS anymore?🧐
Not even kidding the joy and happiness I am feeling right now is crazy I never thought animenz would upload this song cause it's not super popular
Animenz you are amazing, you are the one who inspired me and I'm sure many others to play the piano. two years ago I started lessons and now my teacher and I are starting in the level 10 repertoire book RCM and trying to play some of your songs from the books you have. Keep up the great playing!!
🎶🎶IMA DEMO AO GA SUNDEIRU 🗣🗣🔥🔥
OMG
Watching one Animenz video everyday is the perfect motivator for practicing
sheet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Another truly amazing cover, yet still no Skyclad Observer :(
Still, really well done. Looks like I'd need to really practice my octaves to even have a chance at playing this piece lmao. Seriously, how are yours so clean? You look like you have so much time playing these octaves and make it look so easy
I wish I could play like him😅 Hopefully, one day I will....
I remembered I was really obsessed with this song when I first heard it and I think this cover made me fall in love with it again 😭
I love this opening so much... It litteraly was my top 1 song on my spotify wrapped 🙏🔥
extremely based pfp
@yyukab86 whats anime in your pfp
My favourite JJK song by far. Glad you made an arrangement for it (and played it beautifully, as always)
I've been waiting for the day Animenz covers Ao no Sumika for so long now... The day finally came
Expecting an "Akari" arrange by you now❤
Now it’s time to do the aoi todo black flash ost ‼️‼️
解っていた
比べる事で負けていた
そう生き方をしたのだろう
って言うレベルですね
感銘しました。ありがとうございました😭
Yoo I did an electric guitar cover of this song a few days back, I like your piano arrangement! I like how we both add more melodic embellishment on the vocal melody from the perspective of both our instruments
Same!! Just caught up with season2 and the Hidden/Premature arc is my fav!!😭 This OP has been looping in my brain for A WHOLE WEEK and I was JUST wondering when Animenz will arrange a piano adaptation! You must have read my mind🥰! Thank you for fulfilling my dream (again) @Animenz !
If only Animenz could play Diva's Song from Blood+ someday I'd be the happiest person in the world...
Saw a new animenz notification and thought it would be a continuation of the AoT tribute but the new JJK op is pleasant suprise!
Can you play please « nanami end of journey theme » from JJK
Duuude, I'd realllllyy love to listen to your cover of JJK's ost "If I am with you".
WTFFF the "sayonara" pause gave me chills....
昔の曲をリマスターして欲しいです。今のピアノの録音環境はとても素晴らしいです!。
your covers are so unparalleled!!!
