Don't worry Animenz, even if you feel that you have the weight of the world on your shoulders, we will always support you and we will always have faith that you will create a beautiful song.
+Animenz Piano Sheets Warum denkst du so? Du musst niemandem etwas beweisen und uns erst recht nicht. Wir alle wissen, dass du ein perfekter Klavierspieler bist und auch menschlich ist alles, was ich bisher mitbekommen habe nicht verwerflich. Ich bin mir absolut sicher, dass wenn du irgendwelche Hilfe benötigt, überall in der Welt Menschen, die deine Musik lieben ASAP unterwegs sein würden. LG Johnny
Sorry to keep you waiting! I really miss you guys. Btw, feel free to recommend me any anime piano songs here! I will take ALL suggestions in the comments in consideration! FOR THE GLORY OF HUMANKIND
It is to date the only game that has moved me to tears more than one. The Last of Us got me in the beginning but never really got me the same way again. Nier: Automata got me like 6 times and by the end I was sobbing like a baby. I couldn't offer my help to other players through clear eyes, I was in shock and in tears. It's really hard to explain why, though. The entire course of the game was just such a roller-coaster of emotions and the way the game speaks to you was just......whew. It hit me.
@@Cetra29 I have not, unfortunately. But from what I've heard, the two are only tangentially connected so the impact isn't lessened by not having experience on or the other
Hey Animenz, Maybe this will cheer you up. My piano teacher, a old and very experienced man, praised your sheets quite a lot. I played attack on Titan and moonlight densetsu with him and he was really fascinated by how you combined this new anime music with classical elements. And that in such high quality. He constantly finds old pieces he connects with structures in your work and talks about how great they are integrated. And I also really like to play your pieces. They just make sense to me an give great feedback to the pianist. I just like your stile.^^ I also was on your concert in Munich, but sadly only bought one of the books... :/ I really do hope you find inspiration again, but you shouldn’t force anything. You made so many by now that you can lean back and relax. Maybe that will help you regain your inspiration. We as fans don’t want to stress you. We want to support you. I hope your anime music keeps on going. (I really like the intro of Evangelion in the medley, maybe improve on that). That’s all from me. Have a nice day :) ~Ludwig
Ps: because you wanted suggestions: So I love The evangelion Intro and the day you uploaded the studio medley I fell in love with it so much I listened to it non stop^^ so do one of them if you want. You don’t need to bring a sheet up to the level of thoughtfulness kancolle had. As long as you have fun creating it ;)
@@ludwigsnihonto8757 You.. If the end of the world comes, i'll make sure to find you and keep you safe. You're rare, y'know? Nobody like you is left in the world. Well, almost nobody. You're a great person. Sorry, i'm just having flashbacks when nobody was a douche and everyone was happy. Good times.. Off-topic, I know. But i've been so stressed throughout the years. And hearing this song makes me want to let it all go. Your teacher must be an amazing person, too. I respect that.
Animenz, I will always support you because you are the one that inspired me to pick up piano after I grew to hate it and had no passion for it. My parents forced piano onto me from 1st grade and by 11th grade they finally let me quit. I was done, I never wanted to waste my time on playing an instrument I have no interest in. I stopped improving long before they let me quit, I never wanted to practice, and for 3 years I was never able to finish a song during a recital. Then a year later during my senior year of high school, I found out about anime and a few months before my high school graduation I found one of your videos from years ago. I don't remember which transcription it was but I think it was your No Game No Life cover and I came over to the piano and started to learn again. I wasn't good, the piece was way above my level and I couldn't even figure out to play the notes correctly from the very beginning and there was no way I was going to play it up to speed. Fast forward 2 years later. It's January of 2017 and I'm in the middle of my winter break in my second year of college. My playing hasn't improved, I learned a janky version of the first few lines of your No Game No Life sheet music, and haven't played piano since. Just on and off a little when I'm home. And then I just think what if I buy a keyboard, a week later I return to college having bought my own keyboard to play in my dorm. Now fast forward to today. My playing has improved tremendously, for the first time a few months ago my playing felt natural. I can practice for hours each day and it feels like minutes. I want to play piano, and I love learning pieces from different animes I've watched. I can play your No Game No Life cover correctly now, and up to speed for a page and a half (I haven't tried to learn more for a while now and I really should get back to that, I think my left hand can finally play the 16th notes from the second page up to speed with practice. Something I never thought I would be able to achieve.) I've learned half of your Everyday world - Oregairu transcription. I started to learn your Guilty Crown - Departures transcription and was able to roughly play a page and a half after about 5 hours of practice over a few days when I had free time. Recently I started to learn your Owari no Sekai Kara transcription and after just 3 hours and just 3 days, I can play a full page with just playing when I have a few mins. of free time. I'm blown away by how much my ability has improved, the rate of how quickly I can read sheet music and play without having to look down all the time for each note. I can't believe how natural my playing now feels. It's all thanks to you. Thank you for inspiring me to play the piano, and find joy in playing music. Thank you for inspiring me to improve, and finding a passion for the piano. It even extended to me buying a guitar last week because I want to learn more now. You helped me create a space for myself for when I feel lost, I can come back to the piano and just play without struggling. I can't ask you to please make sheet music because I understand where you are right now. You have to find something to get yourself back on your feet. Maybe that's not in piano right now, explore some other hobbies if you need some time away from the piano. And if you choose to keep playing and upload you don't have to make complete covers. I know many people just want to hear you play, the sound of your piano. I am in love with your Neir Automata covers and I hope to be good enough to be able to play them without needing sheet music one day because they are beautiful. One anime that is very special for me is Your Lie in April, it helped me realize I was going through depression 3 years ago and resonated with so many different parts of my life. To me you are like Kaori, you brought color into my life and for that, I am forever grateful. Thank you for making sheet music.
Keep going strong!! Never let your dreams go ,because you're stronger that you think you actually are! We all learn,and if you think about it,the more you practice the better you become, so dont worry about not being good now, think about the fact that you're going to be even better than you are right now if you practice ! Good luck ! ps. u can do it :p
wow man, this just looks like a script of something. i don't know what to say but i'm glad that you find your own goal. hope i can also find my own goal soon, just like you
Animenz, it's not a big deal if you're not able to produce sheets for now. Indeed, through the story of this channel, there has been other hard times, I remember there was a time when you wanted to definitely stop doing piano covers. But you continued anyway. I remember the struggle to write the ending of Owari no Sekai Kara, or the Air/Kanon/Clannad medley; it was hard but you always did it in the end. So I have faith in you, it's impossible to lose your creative power like this, forever. Take the time you need, and come back more strong than ever! I (and a lot of other people for sure) will wait for your return.
There's so much emotion here. I've listened to other versions of this on piano but nothing else captures the feeling as well as this. I'm blown away, this is absolutely beautiful.
I've been playing piano for 5 years now.. (almost 6) and if I asked myself.. why I play piano.. I never knew the answer, it was just because my parents told me to do so.. Last year I started watching anime.. and I loved Tokyo ghoul - Unravel.. btw I never tried searching for piano videos and stuff.. then one time.. I listened to YOUR Tokyo ghoul Unravel.. I litterally LOVED IT.. From that one time I started listening to piano SO MUCH.. before I didnt like classical music.. now I love it.. Chopin nocturnes.. UGH I LOVE THEM.. now I am even considering to do something with music, with piano in the future as profession.. well.. now I am listening to a lot of your covers daily.. I find it very inspirational.. and I'm getting pretty good with the unravel song's left hand jumps.. Now I can't live without piano.. YOU CHANGED ME AND MY LIFE.. THANK YOU FROM THE DEEPS OF MY HEART.. BTW CAN I GET SOME LIKES.. I WANT ANIMENZ TO SEE THIS.. please.. I would be really gratefull.. this cover is very nice too btw.. good job.. keep it up..
Your light of passion and inspiration that has burned for so long has spread to many of us across the world. For me and many others like me, you have inspired us to play piano in hopes of one day playing like you. Thank you for inspiring me to play piano, to practice hard and to try new things. Thank you for all the work you put in, because without that I might not have ever started playing piano. From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU!
Hi Animenz, Nice to see you upload again! First of all, I want to say I will and many other fans will unconditionally support your channel forever. The support doesn’t change just because you are inactive or doesn’t make sheet arrangement. I just want to comment on the observation of the community over the years as a whole. I think the special thing that you and Ishter is that not only did you make wonderful music but also inspired other pianists and even other instrumentalist/vocalists to start RUclips and play/arrange anime music. You have started and inspired a whole entire community. This is something, in my mind, the most special inspiring thing you have achieved. In the community we had several ‘highs’. The first one being around guilty crown period 2011/12. Everyone was inspired by your arrangement and ishter’s which inspired a lot of the first generation of anime pianists like me, Zacky and many others. The second was around the first season in attack on titan where we saw the most amount of piano covers EVER on RUclips. Again people were hugely inspired by you and ishter and others. The community started from around less than 10 anime pianists in 2011 to about 100 in 2013. Now we are at around maybe 500. In the ‘foundation period’, there were only a few of us making covers in a medium pace. Zacky, you, ishter among a few others. In the second period, around attack on titan S1, we saw many legends like Egoisthium, Baddydan rise. The important change in this period was that egoisthium and a few others drastically change the output of anime piano covers! People were essentially racing to get the arrangement out as soon as possible. In this period, arrangement could come as fast as 1-2 weeks per a video. We got more quantity and slightly more quality In the third period, we have the rise of the improvisers and jazz. People stopped making sheets and started to improvise/play by ear. Admittedly at first it seems to be a decrease in quality but not really actually. New sounds came out. Naravano, egoishium etc started to not make sheets. Ishter stopped making sheets etc Yes without making sheets you are scarificijg the details in the arrangement. It is always nice and perfect to listen to. Even though I miss the old times where everyone makes sheet But I want to say sometimes improvising can be ‘better’ than making sheet. It brings out more emotions due to the more freedom you get in the processs. Kyleandry marsary8 for example always improvised yet his sounds is one of the best. I don’t think you stopping to make sheet will stop your progress. I think changing to improvisation is just a change of direction and sound. Again professional jazz musicians improvises all day and they get better. There is no ceiling in anime piano. You can always improve imo. There is room to grow even if you go full improvisation! We will always follow you. Unfortunately, there is a general decline in the anime piano community. Maybe is because everyone was young at the beginning and there were no obstacles in our life. We could make as much music as we wanted. But when we age, we had to start accept responsibilities and face up to the cruel reality- that is the current capitalist society never really favored musicians. We can’t really be troubled free (this could be a strength of musicians though. It gives us the ‘emotions’ we hear). People have been less active and some pianists even stopped their channel altogether. This is due to a number of factors, high school, graduating high school, university, career. For most, they don’t have the courage to pick music as a career because it is not sustain for them even though they are talented. Maybe people have the same dilemma. But I commend you, Ishter and some others to have the courage to pursue anime piano as your full time job/career. This is a very interesting new direction. We understand it would be hard and we will support you all the way. Despite the decline, one thing is true. We are all what we are. Anime piano is part of us. We always support the community or contribute one way or another in the ways we can. Even if it is less uploads, less hours. We support in different ways watching other people’s cover, commenting! In fact that’s what I really love about the community. I understand that you are ‘the person’ running in the front of the group, leading the group into the unkown. There is a lot of pressure because many of us were inspired and look up on you. But the thing is, you don’t have to see it this way. This kid of mindset can create a lot of ‘weight on your shoulders’ if you like. My point is that it is ok to slow down. It is ok. You are not alone in this. You have a whole entire community behind you to support you. There are not there to pressure you. There are not there to say if you didn’t do this you will ****. As far as everyone here, see it for your self the comments. We are very supportive of you. There is no need to be pressured and be in that mindset. No matter what you do in the future, people like me will always support you because you started that spark in our heart. We will forever cherish it. Just take it at your own pace. You can’t upload as often? Fine, it’s ok. We are not disappointed. We will wait for your return. If you want to go into improvisation and less sheets, you know we will support you. The only thing about the sheet is that sheets is very symbolic imo to the community because of your sheets, many started started/re-started piano just to play those legendary master pieces. Just look at how many ‘my dearest’ , Euterpe covers out there on RUclips that plays your sheet. They don’t get many views for playing your arrangement. In fact in a way making their own arrangement generate more views. But why do they still play and post them? Because we love you and you have left something behind that we can share. People not only play your sheets on RUclips/online. People also play them offfline. I for example performed your arrangement of Euterpe in front of my school in front of the school assembly which had around 1,000 audiences. Many of them where not anime fans. But many people at the end came up to me and told me that is is beautiful and they would like to know where the music came from. I would always be happy and pride to reply. From my idol Animenz. From anime. From piano. I also met many people in my school across year levels who loved anime as a result that I never knew existed until I played your arrangement in front of the school. One possible solution I can pose to you in the future is that if you are going to start improvising, it’s ok. Just make sure to get someone (maybe unlimitedmusicworks) in or outside of the community to transcribe your improvisations. There are many out there who would love transcribing your work. The reason this is important is you don’t have to do the work but you can leave something behind! To share with us. To inspire the community. Anyways best of luck in the future. It is quite a coincidence that we get highs and lows at the same time several times already. When you graduated university, I graduated high school. We are all in a new stage of life. We need time to adjust to these changes and I understand, Your sincerely forever, AnimePianoangel
Beautiful cover. I'm so happy to hear you play this song. Please don't feel disheartened about change; your passions may come and go and that's okay. Just keep doing what you love. If you really want to keep doing something, do it even if you don't feel like it, because it's still work done; however, don't push yourself to the point that it makes you miserable. Life happens and isn't always friendly, and people change. You do you, and we love you :)
There's days when all that carries me through is a song, and so many times your covers have done that for me (particularly this one and Bios). Thank you for all of the hard work you put into these!
I'm just glad you keep uploading videos! Your videos inspire me to become a better piano player! Whenever I can't find the motivation to play, I just listen to my favourite uploads of yours and suddenly I'm brimming with motivation
“Keep going!! The light of passion will refuel itself as you will it and need it. It never goes away just as your skill never does” beautiful work!!! And thank you!!!
Wow. I just arranged this piece a three days ago. And then you release it. Best way for me to compare and see how I can try being as good as you one day (I believe I will never manage too). Can't wait to see more of your videos great Animenz. Good luck with your work and projects. You're leveling up the content we have on RUclips. Thank you for that. About your fears that I can read in description, please don't feel bad. Truly, you don't have to "stick" to anything. Being famous doesn't mean that you have to force yourself to respect every word you pronounced. So what ? Are you forced to be the same than you were when you wrote that tweet or Facebook post 5 years ago ? I hope everybody here would agree with me to say that whatever you do, we will continue to support you. And if one day some of us stop to support you, it would just mean we found other hobbies, and also that some other people will start to be interested with your works. Please, with you passion and talent just do whatever you wish to feel good and serene during your life. Play, teach, write, improvise, compose, sing, jump, dance. Whatever. We must not be jail guards for you! Keep up Animenz. We wish you all the best.
You are the best piano player ever animenz keep up the good work.some day im gonna play just as good as you animenz thats my dream. and you give me the inspiration to keep going
Thank you Animenz! A bit more than a year ago I hadn't played very much piano when I stumbled upon your version of Unravel. I just wanted to try to learn the beginning, which I did. This was during a period when I was...feeling pretty depressed. I decided to learn the rest of the song (not the four minutes, only up to 90 sec or so). While doing this, I discovered both that I was pretty good at piano, which was nice because I felt like I was good at nothing at the time, and that it was really fun to play. In time, I did learn the rest...of course I couldn't play it even near as good as you, but it was alright :D I then played what I wanted to play, both songs from you and Theishter. To stay alive (almost literally) because of an interest, in my case piano, is tbh pretty weird...something in your life is off if you almost literally get saved by an interest. We live in what IMO is dire times; it is an age of depression; atheism and nihilism. Anyways, you anime pianists kept me developing my piano skills and having a good time doing so, which resulted in me getting to where I am today - a generally happy, healthy and dedicated person (also way better at piano than before :D) - the complete opposite to what I was 2 years ago. You and your arrangements have helped me a great deal, with life and with my passion for piano. A simple thank you through this comment which most likely no one will see is not much, but it at least feels better than writing nothing. Keep up the good work in the way you see fitting. Don't feel forced to do anything because of fame or such, and don't feel too bad if you aren't that productive with sheets and/or songs for RUclips. Do what you want to do, improve as a person (as always) and a maybe unpopular opinion...get redpilled. No I'm serious, that is the first step to self-improvement and mental happiness.
I can empathize with a little of what you're going through right now, since the past few months has been a similar experience for me. I haven't uploaded a new video since July 2017, and I haven't posted new sheets since January 2017. I've gone through several songs but haven't found the ideas and the spark to create a finished product that I am satisfied with. Each time a song gets dropped and left behind it's a little demotivating and it feels harder and harder to find the drive to deliver a complete worthy product. But I'm trying to find my way again, slowly but surely. I know I can't really speak for or truly understand everything that you're going through now, but I hope that my words can provide some comfort and motivation. Whether or not the reasons for you posting less are coming from a personal private matter, anxiety from the pressure of meeting expectations of a growing channel/fan base - the figurative "weight of the world", or the lack of motivation or creative ideas to finish an arrangement, whatever it may be, what matters most is that you take things at YOUR own pace. If you can't make sheets for the time being, that's okay. Change is a natural part of life, and the best thing to do is embrace it. Even if you aren't able to provide the sheets you used to, just seeing a new video notification from you and being able to listen to you play is enough to instantly brighten my day. I don't follow you simply for the sheets, I listen to you because your arrangements, performance, improvisation, sound, videos, and everything always amaze me, and that has never changed from the day I discovered your channel over 5 years ago, through when I listened to you in person for the first time rehearsing at Harmonic Studio in Shanghai last summer. It's hard to keep doing the same thing that you've been doing and have loved doing for years when you've found that your heart has grown fatigued and your inspiration has burned out. Sometimes the best way to reignite an empty lighter is not to keep striking at it endlessly, but to give it time to refuel so that it can have the energy to burn as brightly as it did before. Try taking a conscious break from making sheets. Look for another activity that you can channel your creative passion, whether it be music or not music related, anime or not anime related. Or try arranging a different genre of music. Don't feel chained to this channel. You do you. We will always be patiently waiting for whenever you feel comfortable in returning at full strength. One day, you may find the inspiration to make sheets again. And most importantly, don't lose faith, and remember to believe in the me that believes in you. You have already made great arrangements, and you are capable of delivering even more in the future. Hang in there Maik. We will support you no matter what path you go down. Your friend, biggest fan, and fellow pianist, Kevin
This version has something to it, a lot of covers of Weight of the World lack the emotional, somehow uncertain and honest feeling of the original song. You amaze and stunn me with this beautiful version! Kudos!
Animenz you have been one of if not the biggest inspiration in my life. Ever since I found you 4 years ago I fell in love with your covers and you have played such a big part in my musical growth over these few years. Whether its inspiring me to be creative like you, or just pushing my technical skills to the limit with your crazy transcriptions, I would not be where I am today without you. Please don't give up hope, and continue doing your best!
We need but one thing from you. Your music, your craft, the originality you bring into every piece and the soul that is added to the making of an arrangement. It matters not how long, nor how abundant your uploads are. We simply want to hear your piano, played by your hands which have been swayed by your emotions. we love who you are right now and will love who you will be in years to come. Find pleasure and happiness in what you do and share that with your audience - us Animenz fans. I find no greater joy than to watch and listen to every single one of your pieces. You have the ability to paint with sound; that leaves me speechless.
When I read your description whilst listening to this piano cover somehow I wanted to cry, as if the weight of the world really hit me because I feel like we are constantly living in people ideals and are forcing ourselves to live up with other people's standard and expectation... Thank you, Animenz for producing this. Somehow this song is resonating inside me...
Your videos and music keep me going when things get tough, they act as a gate for my emotions to flow out of instead of boil up inside me. Thank you for your incredible talent and for sharing it with us.
Excellent arrangement. **Holy, those left-hand counter-melodies everywhere. ** As for suggestions: several ending songs from Darling in the FranXX (including "Torikago") are worthy of an animenzzz arrangement. Give it a listen!
Analysis: Animenz's rendition of weight of the world from Nier:Automata has envoked and awakened a heightened sense of nolstalgia and feeling. Hypothesis: this piano playthrough is quite exquisite. Proposal: Animenz should continue to provide piano covers of this well coveted OST.
Rafik el Jar - Anime Piano Sheets Hi! A few last days ‘ve been searching for a lot OPs and ED’s MIDIs. I found a lot of yours. Thank you very much for them. Really.
I honestly don't remember clicking on one of your videos since No Game No Life and Tokyo Ghoul were the popular anime of the year. But hell I can't ignore Weight of the World. Recently finished NieR: Automata, and I do not think it will fade from my mind within the next 20 years or so.
I feel like I'm losing hope, in my body and my soul And the sky, it looks so ominous And as time comes to a halt, sadness starts to overflow My cries are inconspicuous Tell me God, are you punishing me? Is this the price I'm paying for my past mistakes? This is my redemption song I need you more than ever right now Can you hear me now? 'Cause we're gonna shout it loud Even if our words seem meaningless It's like I'm carrying the weight of the world I'd wish that some way, somehow That I can save every one of us But the truth is that I'm only one girl Maybe if I keep believing, my dreams will come to life Come to life... After all the laughter fades Signs of life all washed away I can still, still feel the gentle breeze No matter how hard I pray Signs of warning still remain And life has become my enemy Tell me God, are you punishing me? Is this the price I'm paying for my past mistakes? This is my redemption song I need you more than ever right now Can you hear me now? 'Cause we're gonna shout it loud Even if our words seem meaningless It's like I'm carrying the weight of the world I'd wish that some way, somehow That I can save every one of us But the truth is that I'm only one girl Maybe if I keep believing, my dreams will come to life Come to life... 'Cause we're gonna shout it loud Even if our words seem meaningless It's like I'm carrying the weight of the world I wish that some way, somehow That I can save every one of us But the truth is that I'm only one girl Still we're gonna shout it loud Even if our words seem meaningless It's like I'm carrying the weight of the world I'd hope that some way, somehow That I can save every one of us But the truth is that I'm only one girl Maybe if I keep believing, my dreams will come to life Come to life...
As long as we get to hear you play I'm sure the community is happy! You've been an inspiration to many! I'm still playing the piano thanks to you and the sheets you have created. We will always support you, and maybe one day that spark of inspiration will shine bright again!
Dear Animenz. More so than anything else, I think that you should pursue a channel or career that you want to pursue. Please, as loyal and endearing your fans are, don't stress yourself and quell your flame of creativity with our expectations or commitments. Of course, none of us fans want to see you go, but we'd hate it more to see you forcing yourself for our sake. I think that the bigger and more recognized you are, the harder it is to find inspiration because you start to lose people to aspire to. That may be what is happening to you, and even if that is the case, there is absolutely nothing that we as fans can blame you for. So please, above all, do as you want to do :)
I used to treat you as God. But now I know that even you, here will be some times frustrated and not inspired. In fact, you are just a human, just like us. To be honest, I would be very disappointed if you no longer make music sheets. Because after I knew you on youtube, the piano music I practiced all became your work！ You have always provided free and best piano sheets. I really thank you for this because your music sheets has truly changed my life！ I've been looking forward to hearing about your new work, and I hope you can find inspiration again and overcome this difficulty. But even if you can't , don't worry. I will still continue to support you！You have brought us enough surprises in the past eight years, love you~Animenz:D P.s. I am a Taiwanese and I have a poor English... But I still tried it！ just like you use Chinese communicated with us in the last concert！ So...I hope you can understand what I'm talking about LOL 我一直以來都把你當作神一般的存在。但是現在我知道即使是你，也會有些挫折低潮，或是沒有靈感的時候。事實上，在這點你跟我們並沒有什麼不同。 老實說的話，如果你不再製作樂譜，我會非常失望的。因為自從我在RUclips上認識你之後，我平時拿來練習的鋼琴曲子大部分都從一般的流行歌變成了你的作品！ 你一直為我們提供免費且最優秀的鋼琴譜，我真的很感謝你，因為你的這些樂譜，我從中學習到了很多，也讓我變得更有目標及自信，具體來說，你及你的樂譜已經徹底的改變了我的生活！ 我一直在期待聽到你的新作品，也希望你能再次找到靈感並克服這次的難關。 但即使你不能，也不要擔心。因為我還是仍然會繼續的支持你！你在過去八年已經帶給我們足夠的驚喜了，我永遠都喜歡你〜Animenz：D 附：我是一名台灣人，我的英語水平很差...... 但我嘗試看看了，就像你在上次演奏會中用中文與我們溝通！那真的很讓我感動！ 所以......我希望你能理解我這篇留言在說什麼LOL
Words cannot describe how much I love this. When I played this game, I completely lost myself in the scenery. I felt like I was truly there, in some surreal and fantastical world. I played this game when I wanted to escape from the world, and this cover reminds me of the breathtaking experiences I had during my play-through. Thank you, Animenz.
Wow just listend to Nier Amusement Park and Weight of the World and now I see that you uploaded this awesome piano version. One of the best songs I heard in a while. I would suggest the Violet Evergarden OP Sincerly by True, that would be great on piano imo.
The one thing you should know is that no one would be disappointed even if you stop this. It would be really sad to hear that, but the beautiful videos you've made give us hope, inspirations, and goals every time when we watch. Thank you for all of your work till now, and I hope your future will be full with happiness and brightness.
Holy shit. I know this is an old video, but holy hell is it amazing. Whatever the fuck was going on then, I sincerely hope you are doing well. You're the best piano player I've heard in my life.
Idk why but everytime I hear this paino cover I think of the time I disappointed my piano teacher.. She told me "I'm sorry I pushed you further than other students. I thought you could do it.i got ahead of myself" but I felt it in my bones I knew I could have tried harder than I wouldn't have failed her.. now its just another failure to add to my collection in my life..Maybe one day I can prove myself and learn to play the piano again
I personally am not disappointed. I am very thankful for your work. Your previous works are a bless for me. I believe that for most of us this isn't just about music or the sheets that you provide. Your videos always give me a push to continue my hobby even at hard times.
Very well played. I actually liked your sheets and therefore I feel a bit sad that they're gone. BUT you give me the inspiration I have needed for a long time and there are still a lot sheets that I haven't played. So even if you'll stop providing sheets, you gave me more than enough. So don't be discouraged!
I've been playing it since December 2019, and this is the best, what I ever played. Thank you for arrangement!! P.S.: the passage in 3:59 are very complicated.. But despite my 14, I've played it))
@Animenz Piano Sheets Now I can't speak for everyone, but I know with certainty that I could never be disappointed in you. Not after you have given me so much already. From the moment I looked up “Only My Railgun” covers, to when I saw you in concert, to now, you have been a source of happiness, and inspiration for me with your beautiful piano works. Like any proficient musician, you pour your heart and soul into your work. You keep going in the face of adversity. An example of this is at the concert I saw you, you were suffering from an illness (a very strong flu if I remember correctly) but you kept going at your best, and gave a wonderful performance including some of your most difficult covers with several encores. It wasn't just about “the show must go on” you did it because you love the piano, you love your work, and you love your fans. To this day you continue trying your best, touring the world, spreading the amazing sound of anime on piano. No matter the difficulty you keep going, making your place in peoples hearts with your sound (yes I'm gonna reference shigatsu wa kimi no uso). I think I can speak for others on this note that if you ever need support, your fans will be glad to help in any way we can, so that you may continue rocking the world as the virtuosic master of anime on piano that is Animenz. Good luck in Tokyo, and remember, never give up cause it's just not like you :)
Please don't stop with what you are doing, you are the reason why I started playing the piano to make one of my dreams I had since I was a kid come true! My goal is definitely to play your epic arrangements, it's the best music for piano, right next to classic. Viele Grüße und hoffentlich findest du wieder Inspiration und Motivation. :)
7 mins long yesssss haha Haven’t you uploaded a version to bilibili btw? Love the left hand in this one a lot, adds extra melodies and sub melodies. Three hand technique classics. Beautiful and immersive. I will always be fooled by the multivoicing haha Always have to check if u added an extra hand in there or not
Beautiful masterpiece. No matter what other people think, Animenz is always Animenz! who is my teacher, predecessor, friend and the one bring me back to the fascinating world of music. Though tired at a moment, the fire in your heart never burn out, so am I.

That was sad as fuck. I remember crying so much during the ending sequence and secretly hoping to defeat Square Enix and get the ending we all deserved. I couldn’t do it, but well, as Pod 042 says: “A future is not given to you. It is something you must take for yourself.”
@@hiimshana That game really surprised me. I was already looking forward to it but I didn't thought it would exceed that much my expectations... Nier automata will always have a place in my heart.
I'm also going through a rough spot as a musician at the moment but I want to let you know that I hope we can both get through this rough patch! You've inspired me a lot as a pianist. When I was little I hated the piano even when I took lessons and then I started playing classical music and it was better but still not enough. About 5 and a half years ago I discovered your channel and your sheets and they made me really passionate about playing piano and pushed me to get better at piano so I could play the beautiful melodies and harmonies you laid out myself. This year at 18, I became a piano teacher and I've loved the piano and would never want to part from it because your music challenged me and really brought life to the instrument for me. Even if you never create another sheet again I want you to know that you still have many supporters that you've inspired and that will listen to whatever you choose to produce. I'll definitely support you no matter what path you choose. Thank you for so many years of beautiful music and sheets Animenz
You were the first pianist i suscribed when i started playing 4 years ago and i keep getting as happy as the first day when i see the notification of a new cover. Your arrangements are truly unique. Keep it up, please!

Warum denkst du so? Du musst niemandem etwas beweisen und uns erst recht nicht. Wir alle wissen, dass du ein perfekter Klavierspieler bist und auch menschlich ist alles, was ich bisher mitbekommen habe nicht verwerflich.
Ich bin mir absolut sicher, dass wenn du irgendwelche Hilfe benötigt, überall in der Welt Menschen, die deine Musik lieben ASAP unterwegs sein würden.

Nier Automata really has the best end credits sequence ever
And the most fuck ass hard ending mini game
@@teo8446 yeah, i tried to end it by myself for 3 hours until i accepted help
It is to date the only game that has moved me to tears more than one. The Last of Us got me in the beginning but never really got me the same way again.
Nier: Automata got me like 6 times and by the end I was sobbing like a baby. I couldn't offer my help to other players through clear eyes, I was in shock and in tears.
It's really hard to explain why, though. The entire course of the game was just such a roller-coaster of emotions and the way the game speaks to you was just......whew. It hit me.
@@JesseLeeHumphry I hope you played the first Nier because that one is emotional as hell.
@@Cetra29 I have not, unfortunately. But from what I've heard, the two are only tangentially connected so the impact isn't lessened by not having experience on or the other
Hey Animenz,
Maybe this will cheer you up.
My piano teacher, a old and very experienced man, praised your sheets quite a lot. I played attack on Titan and moonlight densetsu with him and he was really fascinated by how you combined this new anime music with classical elements. And that in such high quality. He constantly finds old pieces he connects with structures in your work and talks about how great they are integrated.
And I also really like to play your pieces. They just make sense to me an give great feedback to the pianist. I just like your stile.^^
I also was on your concert in Munich, but sadly only bought one of the books... :/
I really do hope you find inspiration again, but you shouldn’t force anything. You made so many by now that you can lean back and relax. Maybe that will help you regain your inspiration. We as fans don’t want to stress you. We want to support you.
I hope your anime music keeps on going. (I really like the intro of Evangelion in the medley, maybe improve on that). That’s all from me. Have a nice day :)
~Ludwig
Ps: because you wanted suggestions: So I love The evangelion Intro and the day you uploaded the studio medley I fell in love with it so much I listened to it non stop^^ so do one of them if you want.
You don’t need to bring a sheet up to the level of thoughtfulness kancolle had. As long as you have fun creating it ;)
@@ludwigsnihonto8757 You..
If the end of the world comes, i'll make sure to find you and keep you safe. You're rare, y'know?
Nobody like you is left in the world. Well, almost nobody. You're a great person.
Sorry, i'm just having flashbacks when nobody was a douche and everyone was happy.
Good times..
Off-topic, I know. But i've been so stressed throughout the years. And hearing this song makes me want to let it all go.
Your teacher must be an amazing person, too. I respect that.
That name is legit two words from Beethoven ~
I'm sorry it's been 2 years. But how did you learn animenz sheet? He didn't share the sheet right? Or is he?
Rifqi Aulia Rahman he always shared them u find them on sheet host. Com
Hav a lot of fun playing them:)
Animenz, I will always support you because you are the one that inspired me to pick up piano after I grew to hate it and had no passion for it. My parents forced piano onto me from 1st grade and by 11th grade they finally let me quit. I was done, I never wanted to waste my time on playing an instrument I have no interest in. I stopped improving long before they let me quit, I never wanted to practice, and for 3 years I was never able to finish a song during a recital.
Then a year later during my senior year of high school, I found out about anime and a few months before my high school graduation I found one of your videos from years ago. I don't remember which transcription it was but I think it was your No Game No Life cover and I came over to the piano and started to learn again.
I wasn't good, the piece was way above my level and I couldn't even figure out to play the notes correctly from the very beginning and there was no way I was going to play it up to speed. Fast forward 2 years later. It's January of 2017 and I'm in the middle of my winter break in my second year of college. My playing hasn't improved, I learned a janky version of the first few lines of your No Game No Life sheet music, and haven't played piano since. Just on and off a little when I'm home. And then I just think what if I buy a keyboard, a week later I return to college having bought my own keyboard to play in my dorm.
Now fast forward to today. My playing has improved tremendously, for the first time a few months ago my playing felt natural. I can practice for hours each day and it feels like minutes. I want to play piano, and I love learning pieces from different animes I've watched. I can play your No Game No Life cover correctly now, and up to speed for a page and a half (I haven't tried to learn more for a while now and I really should get back to that, I think my left hand can finally play the 16th notes from the second page up to speed with practice. Something I never thought I would be able to achieve.) I've learned half of your Everyday world - Oregairu transcription. I started to learn your Guilty Crown - Departures transcription and was able to roughly play a page and a half after about 5 hours of practice over a few days when I had free time. Recently I started to learn your Owari no Sekai Kara transcription and after just 3 hours and just 3 days, I can play a full page with just playing when I have a few mins. of free time.
I'm blown away by how much my ability has improved, the rate of how quickly I can read sheet music and play without having to look down all the time for each note. I can't believe how natural my playing now feels. It's all thanks to you.
Thank you for inspiring me to play the piano, and find joy in playing music. Thank you for inspiring me to improve, and finding a passion for the piano. It even extended to me buying a guitar last week because I want to learn more now. You helped me create a space for myself for when I feel lost, I can come back to the piano and just play without struggling.
I can't ask you to please make sheet music because I understand where you are right now. You have to find something to get yourself back on your feet. Maybe that's not in piano right now, explore some other hobbies if you need some time away from the piano. And if you choose to keep playing and upload you don't have to make complete covers. I know many people just want to hear you play, the sound of your piano. I am in love with your Neir Automata covers and I hope to be good enough to be able to play them without needing sheet music one day because they are beautiful.
One anime that is very special for me is Your Lie in April, it helped me realize I was going through depression 3 years ago and resonated with so many different parts of my life. To me you are like Kaori, you brought color into my life and for that, I am forever grateful. Thank you for making sheet music.
Keep going strong!! Never let your dreams go ,because you're stronger that you think you actually are! We all learn,and if you think about it,the more you practice the better you become, so dont worry about not being good now, think about the fact that you're going to be even better than you are right now if you practice ! Good luck !
ps. u can do it :p

wow man, this just looks like a script of something. i don't know what to say but i'm glad that you find your own goal. hope i can also find my own goal soon, just like you
"I just hope, that you are not disappointed at me for not providing sheets anymore. " My heart shatters ;(
same
same, even tho i knew it would be very difficult for me to learn with the sheets anyways
I almost never use sheets, it feels like cheating with them,
Replying to myself a while later . .. I should have known how brutally sad this song is before digging into it.
reply in a reply
Animenz, it's not a big deal if you're not able to produce sheets for now.
Indeed, through the story of this channel, there has been other hard times, I remember there was a time when you wanted to definitely stop doing piano covers. But you continued anyway. I remember the struggle to write the ending of Owari no Sekai Kara, or the Air/Kanon/Clannad medley; it was hard but you always did it in the end.
So I have faith in you, it's impossible to lose your creative power like this, forever.
Take the time you need, and come back more strong than ever! I (and a lot of other people for sure) will wait for your return.
louistik Agreed.
Agree!
We will see again. We would wait not only for your fantastic music to the end of time but also for you!
T.T reading the description and the comments... ITS LIKE PLAYING THE GAME AGAIN !!! T_T
44 years old, my tears going down on my face while smiling....thank you
There's so much emotion here. I've listened to other versions of this on piano but nothing else captures the feeling as well as this. I'm blown away, this is absolutely beautiful.

I've been playing piano for 5 years now.. (almost 6) and if I asked myself.. why I play piano.. I never knew the answer, it was just because my parents told me to do so.. Last year I started watching anime.. and I loved Tokyo ghoul - Unravel.. btw I never tried searching for piano videos and stuff.. then one time.. I listened to YOUR Tokyo ghoul Unravel.. I litterally LOVED IT.. From that one time I started listening to piano SO MUCH.. before I didnt like classical music.. now I love it.. Chopin nocturnes.. UGH I LOVE THEM.. now I am even considering to do something with music, with piano in the future as profession.. well.. now I am listening to a lot of your covers daily.. I find it very inspirational.. and I'm getting pretty good with the unravel song's left hand jumps.. Now I can't live without piano.. YOU CHANGED ME AND MY LIFE.. THANK YOU FROM THE DEEPS OF MY HEART.. BTW CAN I GET SOME LIKES.. I WANT ANIMENZ TO SEE THIS.. please.. I would be really gratefull.. this cover is very nice too btw.. good job.. keep it up..
Whoa! Your story is very similar to mine. I can't imagine what my life would be like without piano, or Animenz.
Yeah! His playing is magical.. :DDD
Same here! he gave me so much inspiration :D
:DDD
Same here!!!

私、前のNieRAutomataのBGM集のときにエンディング聞きたいってコメントしたんです！！
たぶん偶然だと思いますが、心して聞きます！ありがとうございます！！😭💕
Your light of passion and inspiration that has burned for so long has spread to many of us across the world. For me and many others like me, you have inspired us to play piano in hopes of one day playing like you. Thank you for inspiring me to play piano, to practice hard and to try new things. Thank you for all the work you put in, because without that I might not have ever started playing piano. From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU!
Its been years and this song still gets to me. Damn I love this game and soundtrack
Just because you aren't creating sheets doesn't mean you are out of inspiration, good sir. The way you played this piece says as much ~
God, the chorus instantly pops into my head. It was the most emotional impact I’ve ever had playing a game. This song still hits me.
Hi Animenz,
Nice to see you upload again! First of all, I want to say I will and many other fans will unconditionally support your channel forever. The support doesn’t change just because you are inactive or doesn’t make sheet arrangement.
I just want to comment on the observation of the community over the years as a whole. I think the special thing that you and Ishter is that not only did you make wonderful music but also inspired other pianists and even other instrumentalist/vocalists to start RUclips and play/arrange anime music. You have started and inspired a whole entire community. This is something, in my mind, the most special inspiring thing you have achieved.
In the community we had several ‘highs’. The first one being around guilty crown period 2011/12. Everyone was inspired by your arrangement and ishter’s which inspired a lot of the first generation of anime pianists like me, Zacky and many others. The second was around the first season in attack on titan where we saw the most amount of piano covers EVER on RUclips. Again people were hugely inspired by you and ishter and others.
The community started from around less than 10 anime pianists in 2011 to about 100 in 2013. Now we are at around maybe 500.
In the ‘foundation period’, there were only a few of us making covers in a medium pace. Zacky, you, ishter among a few others.
In the second period, around attack on titan S1, we saw many legends like Egoisthium, Baddydan rise. The important change in this period was that egoisthium and a few others drastically change the output of anime piano covers! People were essentially racing to get the arrangement out as soon as possible. In this period, arrangement could come as fast as 1-2 weeks per a video. We got more quantity and slightly more quality
In the third period, we have the rise of the improvisers and jazz. People stopped making sheets and started to improvise/play by ear. Admittedly at first it seems to be a decrease in quality but not really actually. New sounds came out. Naravano, egoishium etc started to not make sheets. Ishter stopped making sheets etc
Yes without making sheets you are scarificijg the details in the arrangement. It is always nice and perfect to listen to. Even though I miss the old times where everyone makes sheet But I want to say sometimes improvising can be ‘better’ than making sheet. It brings out more emotions due to the more freedom you get in the processs. Kyleandry marsary8 for example always improvised yet his sounds is one of the best. I don’t think you stopping to make sheet will stop your progress. I think changing to improvisation is just a change of direction and sound. Again professional jazz musicians improvises all day and they get better. There is no ceiling in anime piano. You can always improve imo. There is room to grow even if you go full improvisation! We will always follow you.
Unfortunately, there is a general decline in the anime piano community. Maybe is because everyone was young at the beginning and there were no obstacles in our life. We could make as much music as we wanted. But when we age, we had to start accept responsibilities and face up to the cruel reality- that is the current capitalist society never really favored musicians. We can’t really be troubled free (this could be a strength of musicians though. It gives us the ‘emotions’ we hear). People have been less active and some pianists even stopped their channel altogether. This is due to a number of factors, high school, graduating high school, university, career. For most, they don’t have the courage to pick music as a career because it is not sustain for them even though they are talented. Maybe people have the same dilemma. But I commend you, Ishter and some others to have the courage to pursue anime piano as your full time job/career. This is a very interesting new direction. We understand it would be hard and we will support you all the way.
Despite the decline, one thing is true. We are all what we are. Anime piano is part of us. We always support the community or contribute one way or another in the ways we can. Even if it is less uploads, less hours. We support in different ways watching other people’s cover, commenting! In fact that’s what I really love about the community.
I understand that you are ‘the person’ running in the front of the group, leading the group into the unkown. There is a lot of pressure because many of us were inspired and look up on you. But the thing is, you don’t have to see it this way. This kid of mindset can create a lot of ‘weight on your shoulders’ if you like. My point is that it is ok to slow down. It is ok. You are not alone in this. You have a whole entire community behind you to support you. There are not there to pressure you. There are not there to say if you didn’t do this you will ****. As far as everyone here, see it for your self the comments. We are very supportive of you. There is no need to be pressured and be in that mindset. No matter what you do in the future, people like me will always support you because you started that spark in our heart. We will forever cherish it. Just take it at your own pace. You can’t upload as often? Fine, it’s ok. We are not disappointed. We will wait for your return.
If you want to go into improvisation and less sheets, you know we will support you.
The only thing about the sheet is that sheets is very symbolic imo to the community because of your sheets, many started started/re-started piano just to play those legendary master pieces. Just look at how many ‘my dearest’ , Euterpe covers out there on RUclips that plays your sheet. They don’t get many views for playing your arrangement. In fact in a way making their own arrangement generate more views. But why do they still play and post them? Because we love you and you have left something behind that we can share. People not only play your sheets on RUclips/online. People also play them offfline. I for example performed your arrangement of Euterpe in front of my school in front of the school assembly which had around 1,000 audiences. Many of them where not anime fans. But many people at the end came up to me and told me that is is beautiful and they would like to know where the music came from. I would always be happy and pride to reply. From my idol Animenz. From anime. From piano. I also met many people in my school across year levels who loved anime as a result that I never knew existed until I played your arrangement in front of the school.
One possible solution I can pose to you in the future is that if you are going to start improvising, it’s ok. Just make sure to get someone (maybe unlimitedmusicworks) in or outside of the community to transcribe your improvisations. There are many out there who would love transcribing your work. The reason this is important is you don’t have to do the work but you can leave something behind! To share with us. To inspire the community.
Anyways best of luck in the future. It is quite a coincidence that we get highs and lows at the same time several times already. When you graduated university, I graduated high school. We are all in a new stage of life. We need time to adjust to these changes and I understand,
Your sincerely forever,
AnimePianoangel
Beautiful cover. I'm so happy to hear you play this song.
Please don't feel disheartened about change; your passions may come and go and that's okay. Just keep doing what you love. If you really want to keep doing something, do it even if you don't feel like it, because it's still work done; however, don't push yourself to the point that it makes you miserable. Life happens and isn't always friendly, and people change. You do you, and we love you :)
There's days when all that carries me through is a song, and so many times your covers have done that for me (particularly this one and Bios). Thank you for all of the hard work you put into these!
I'm just glad you keep uploading videos! Your videos inspire me to become a better piano player! Whenever I can't find the motivation to play, I just listen to my favourite uploads of yours and suddenly I'm brimming with motivation
“Keep going!! The light of passion will refuel itself as you will it and need it. It never goes away just as your skill never does” beautiful work!!!
And thank you!!!
In order to play at this level, Animenz has awakened his stand *『G R A N D P I A N O』*
Youuu againn
Justin Y. Hello there once again
You're doing better than lemon
That's a compliment if I ever have seen one
stop following me
ahhhh nooooo, the description made me want to cry.......but I understand, it’s your choice, and I will support even though I will be very sad.
Wow. I just arranged this piece a three days ago. And then you release it. Best way for me to compare and see how I can try being as good as you one day (I believe I will never manage too). Can't wait to see more of your videos great Animenz. Good luck with your work and projects. You're leveling up the content we have on RUclips. Thank you for that.
About your fears that I can read in description, please don't feel bad. Truly, you don't have to "stick" to anything. Being famous doesn't mean that you have to force yourself to respect every word you pronounced. So what ? Are you forced to be the same than you were when you wrote that tweet or Facebook post 5 years ago ? I hope everybody here would agree with me to say that whatever you do, we will continue to support you. And if one day some of us stop to support you, it would just mean we found other hobbies, and also that some other people will start to be interested with your works. Please, with you passion and talent just do whatever you wish to feel good and serene during your life. Play, teach, write, improvise, compose, sing, jump, dance. Whatever. We must not be jail guards for you! Keep up Animenz. We wish you all the best.
JbPianiste - Self-taught - Videogames/anime your arrangement is also amazing
JbPianiste - Self-taught - Videogames/anime i thik you need a better mic tho.
Read your text with the song 👌
I fully agree
Well said! I agree completely with what you said about Animenz’ description comments
Your words are so beautiful
You are the best piano player ever animenz keep up the good work.some day im gonna play just as good as you animenz thats my dream. and you give me the inspiration to keep going
Weight of the World... I still remember when I first heard this play in game.... Very meaningful song in my opinion. Thanks for the cover!
Thank you Animenz!
A bit more than a year ago I hadn't played very much piano when I stumbled upon your version of Unravel. I just wanted to try to learn the beginning, which I did. This was during a period when I was...feeling pretty depressed. I decided to learn the rest of the song (not the four minutes, only up to 90 sec or so). While doing this, I discovered both that I was pretty good at piano, which was nice because I felt like I was good at nothing at the time, and that it was really fun to play. In time, I did learn the rest...of course I couldn't play it even near as good as you, but it was alright :D
I then played what I wanted to play, both songs from you and Theishter. To stay alive (almost literally) because of an interest, in my case piano, is tbh pretty weird...something in your life is off if you almost literally get saved by an interest. We live in what IMO is dire times; it is an age of depression; atheism and nihilism. Anyways, you anime pianists kept me developing my piano skills and having a good time doing so, which resulted in me getting to where I am today - a generally happy, healthy and dedicated person (also way better at piano than before :D) - the complete opposite to what I was 2 years ago. You and your arrangements have helped me a great deal, with life and with my passion for piano.
A simple thank you through this comment which most likely no one will see is not much, but it at least feels better than writing nothing. Keep up the good work in the way you see fitting. Don't feel forced to do anything because of fame or such, and don't feel too bad if you aren't that productive with sheets and/or songs for RUclips. Do what you want to do, improve as a person (as always) and a maybe unpopular opinion...get redpilled. No I'm serious, that is the first step to self-improvement and mental happiness.
I can empathize with a little of what you're going through right now, since the past few months has been a similar experience for me. I haven't uploaded a new video since July 2017, and I haven't posted new sheets since January 2017. I've gone through several songs but haven't found the ideas and the spark to create a finished product that I am satisfied with. Each time a song gets dropped and left behind it's a little demotivating and it feels harder and harder to find the drive to deliver a complete worthy product. But I'm trying to find my way again, slowly but surely.
I know I can't really speak for or truly understand everything that you're going through now, but I hope that my words can provide some comfort and motivation. Whether or not the reasons for you posting less are coming from a personal private matter, anxiety from the pressure of meeting expectations of a growing channel/fan base - the figurative "weight of the world", or the lack of motivation or creative ideas to finish an arrangement, whatever it may be, what matters most is that you take things at YOUR own pace. If you can't make sheets for the time being, that's okay. Change is a natural part of life, and the best thing to do is embrace it. Even if you aren't able to provide the sheets you used to, just seeing a new video notification from you and being able to listen to you play is enough to instantly brighten my day. I don't follow you simply for the sheets, I listen to you because your arrangements, performance, improvisation, sound, videos, and everything always amaze me, and that has never changed from the day I discovered your channel over 5 years ago, through when I listened to you in person for the first time rehearsing at Harmonic Studio in Shanghai last summer.
It's hard to keep doing the same thing that you've been doing and have loved doing for years when you've found that your heart has grown fatigued and your inspiration has burned out. Sometimes the best way to reignite an empty lighter is not to keep striking at it endlessly, but to give it time to refuel so that it can have the energy to burn as brightly as it did before. Try taking a conscious break from making sheets. Look for another activity that you can channel your creative passion, whether it be music or not music related, anime or not anime related. Or try arranging a different genre of music. Don't feel chained to this channel. You do you. We will always be patiently waiting for whenever you feel comfortable in returning at full strength. One day, you may find the inspiration to make sheets again.
And most importantly, don't lose faith, and remember to believe in the me that believes in you. You have already made great arrangements, and you are capable of delivering even more in the future.
Hang in there Maik. We will support you no matter what path you go down.
Your friend, biggest fan, and fellow pianist,
Kevin
I can definitely relate to that feeling of the struggle to find the 'spark' to create a finished sheet that is satisfactory ;_;
I literally just finished this game yesterday. It’s such a beautiful game, and has my favorite ost, and you captured it perfectly. I love this so much
壊レタ世界ノ歌まじで好きです!ピアノまじ綺麗です!弾いてくださりありがとうございます!
This version has something to it, a lot of covers of Weight of the World lack the emotional, somehow uncertain and honest feeling of the original song.
You amaze and stunn me with this beautiful version! Kudos!
Animenz you have been one of if not the biggest inspiration in my life. Ever since I found you 4 years ago I fell in love with your covers and you have played such a big part in my musical growth over these few years. Whether its inspiring me to be creative like you, or just pushing my technical skills to the limit with your crazy transcriptions, I would not be where I am today without you. Please don't give up hope, and continue doing your best!
The song still hits hard.Makes me cry every time I hear it.
The final screams they summoned on the edge of their death... They still echo within me.
As does this piece. Absolutely phenomenal.
I can't even describe how amazing this arrangement sounds. Simply amazing!
We need but one thing from you. Your music, your craft, the originality you bring into every piece and the soul that is added to the making of an arrangement. It matters not how long, nor how abundant your uploads are. We simply want to hear your piano, played by your hands which have been swayed by your emotions. we love who you are right now and will love who you will be in years to come. Find pleasure and happiness in what you do and share that with your audience - us Animenz fans. I find no greater joy than to watch and listen to every single one of your pieces. You have the ability to paint with sound; that leaves me speechless.
This is absolutely beautiful. I cried during the video, I really did. Thank you.
When I read your description whilst listening to this piano cover somehow I wanted to cry, as if the weight of the world really hit me because I feel like we are constantly living in people ideals and are forcing ourselves to live up with other people's standard and expectation... Thank you, Animenz for producing this. Somehow this song is resonating inside me...
As long as you make songs, I don't mind. You made us so many incredible sheets. Just keep believing in yourself Animenz, because we do ♥
Your videos and music keep me going when things get tough, they act as a gate for my emotions to flow out of instead of boil up inside me. Thank you for your incredible talent and for sharing it with us.
Excellent arrangement. **Holy, those left-hand counter-melodies everywhere. **
As for suggestions: several ending songs from Darling in the FranXX (including "Torikago") are worthy of an animenzzz arrangement. Give it a listen!
Hereson its so beautiful.. spesific at the climaks... right hands melody is followed by left hand♡♡..
You should read his desc...
He seems to have a hard time lately...
We should give him some rest with expectations I think :/
Nier Automata had such an amazing soundtrack. Glad to see a piano version
You have just played an [E]xtraordinary song. Congratulations!!!!
Whenever I see an Animenz upload:
1. get rid of whatever I am doing online
2. watch animenz
3. cry tears of joy
Man, I love this game, and it's music is phenomenal. Beautiful job.
You might like The Consouls version of it too ruclips.net/video/4s5mRpkduwM/видео.html
めちゃくちゃ変なコメント失礼します
9Sや2Bのように、色々なものを知って得た感情がそれぞれの想いから個性となってさらにそれが激情となって溢れ出し行くイメージがものすごく湧いてきます。最後は寂しさや諦めといった感覚とと共に皮肉にも世界は美しいという言葉が溢れてきます。ほんとに色んな感情をぶつけられているような感覚に陥りました。こんな素晴らしい演奏をありがとうこざいます！
I love youuu

The Consouls also covered this ruclips.net/video/4s5mRpkduwM/видео.html
Honestly anything Nier automata and I will be stoked!! Your arrangements are so good. Thank you for this!
I was waiting for this one!!! I will hear it while studying every day!
I am almost 18, I started classes last week and I just wanted to say that your videos are one of the things that motivate me to continue.
Analysis: Animenz's rendition of weight of the world from Nier:Automata has envoked and awakened a heightened sense of nolstalgia and feeling.
Hypothesis: this piano playthrough is quite exquisite.
Proposal: Animenz should continue to provide piano covers of this well coveted OST.
I’m really glad that you are still doing Nier cover despite the copyright issues
Great job! You will always be my inspiration, as well as the millions of us around the world! *vibratos away...*
I absolutely love this song and I love how you manage to capture the feel of the original.
I WAITED SO LONG FOR THIS !

Rafik el Jar - Anime Piano Sheets
Hi! A few last days ‘ve been searching for a lot OPs and ED’s MIDIs. I found a lot of yours. Thank you very much for them. Really.
haha you're welcome I'm glad I was of help
I honestly don't remember clicking on one of your videos since No Game No Life and Tokyo Ghoul were the popular anime of the year. But hell I can't ignore Weight of the World. Recently finished NieR: Automata, and I do not think it will fade from my mind within the next 20 years or so.
I feel like I'm losing hope, in my body and my soul
And the sky, it looks so ominous
And as time comes to a halt, sadness starts to overflow
My cries are inconspicuous
Tell me God, are you punishing me?
Is this the price I'm paying for my past mistakes?
This is my redemption song
I need you more than ever right now
Can you hear me now?
'Cause we're gonna shout it loud
Even if our words seem meaningless
It's like I'm carrying the weight of the world
I'd wish that some way, somehow
That I can save every one of us
But the truth is that I'm only one girl
Maybe if I keep believing, my dreams will come to life
Come to life...
After all the laughter fades Signs of life all washed away
I can still, still feel the gentle breeze
No matter how hard I pray Signs of warning still remain
And life has become my enemy
Tell me God, are you punishing me?
Is this the price I'm paying for my past mistakes?
This is my redemption song
I need you more than ever right now
Can you hear me now?
'Cause we're gonna shout it loud
Even if our words seem meaningless
It's like I'm carrying the weight of the world
I'd wish that some way, somehow
That I can save every one of us
But the truth is that I'm only one girl
Maybe if I keep believing, my dreams will come to life
Come to life...
'Cause we're gonna shout it loud
Even if our words seem meaningless
It's like I'm carrying the weight of the world
I wish that some way, somehow
That I can save every one of us
But the truth is that I'm only one girl
Still we're gonna shout it loud
Even if our words seem meaningless
It's like I'm carrying the weight of the world
I'd hope that some way, somehow
That I can save every one of us
But the truth is that I'm only one girl
Maybe if I keep believing, my dreams will come to life
Come to life...
As long as we get to hear you play I'm sure the community is happy! You've been an inspiration to many! I'm still playing the piano thanks to you and the sheets you have created. We will always support you, and maybe one day that spark of inspiration will shine bright again!
Dear Animenz. More so than anything else, I think that you should pursue a channel or career that you want to pursue. Please, as loyal and endearing your fans are, don't stress yourself and quell your flame of creativity with our expectations or commitments. Of course, none of us fans want to see you go, but we'd hate it more to see you forcing yourself for our sake. I think that the bigger and more recognized you are, the harder it is to find inspiration because you start to lose people to aspire to. That may be what is happening to you, and even if that is the case, there is absolutely nothing that we as fans can blame you for. So please, above all, do as you want to do :)
I cant find the right words to explain what im feeling, but this is beautiful
I used to treat you as God. But now I know that even you, here will be some times frustrated and not inspired. In fact, you are just a human, just like us.
To be honest, I would be very disappointed if you no longer make music sheets. Because after I knew you on youtube, the piano music I practiced all became your work！
You have always provided free and best piano sheets. I really thank you for this because your music sheets has truly changed my life！
I've been looking forward to hearing about your new work, and I hope you can find inspiration again and overcome this difficulty.
But even if you can't , don't worry. I will still continue to support you！You have brought us enough surprises in the past eight years, love you~Animenz:D
P.s. I am a Taiwanese and I have a poor English...
But I still tried it！ just like you use Chinese communicated with us in the last concert！
So...I hope you can understand what I'm talking about LOL
我一直以來都把你當作神一般的存在。但是現在我知道即使是你，也會有些挫折低潮，或是沒有靈感的時候。事實上，在這點你跟我們並沒有什麼不同。
老實說的話，如果你不再製作樂譜，我會非常失望的。因為自從我在RUclips上認識你之後，我平時拿來練習的鋼琴曲子大部分都從一般的流行歌變成了你的作品！
你一直為我們提供免費且最優秀的鋼琴譜，我真的很感謝你，因為你的這些樂譜，我從中學習到了很多，也讓我變得更有目標及自信，具體來說，你及你的樂譜已經徹底的改變了我的生活！
我一直在期待聽到你的新作品，也希望你能再次找到靈感並克服這次的難關。
但即使你不能，也不要擔心。因為我還是仍然會繼續的支持你！你在過去八年已經帶給我們足夠的驚喜了，我永遠都喜歡你〜Animenz：D
附：我是一名台灣人，我的英語水平很差......
但我嘗試看看了，就像你在上次演奏會中用中文與我們溝通！那真的很讓我感動！
所以......我希望你能理解我這篇留言在說什麼LOL

Words cannot describe how much I love this. When I played this game, I completely lost myself in the scenery. I felt like I was truly there, in some surreal and fantastical world. I played this game when I wanted to escape from the world, and this cover reminds me of the breathtaking experiences I had during my play-through.
Thank you, Animenz.
Wow just listend to Nier Amusement Park and Weight of the World and now I see that you uploaded this awesome piano version. One of the best songs I heard in a while. I would suggest the Violet Evergarden OP Sincerly by True, that would be great on piano imo.
xMacieX He's made a medley of some NieR:Automata songs too:))
The one thing you should know is that no one would be disappointed even if you stop this. It would be really sad to hear that, but the beautiful videos you've made give us hope, inspirations, and goals every time when we watch. Thank you for all of your work till now, and I hope your future will be full with happiness and brightness.
Holy shit. I know this is an old video, but holy hell is it amazing. Whatever the fuck was going on then, I sincerely hope you are doing well. You're the best piano player I've heard in my life.
Unlike many other arrangements, yours sounds more hopeful than melancholy. I appreciate that, and I appreciate you for doing this.
Idk why but everytime I hear this paino cover I think of the time I disappointed my piano teacher.. She told me "I'm sorry I pushed you further than other students. I thought you could do it.i got ahead of myself" but I felt it in my bones I knew I could have tried harder than I wouldn't have failed her.. now its just another failure to add to my collection in my life..Maybe one day I can prove myself and learn to play the piano again
you got it bro i believe in you 2 years later
imma man but why this arrangement makes me feel so sad even 😭
Hanazeve caradhina from made in abyss would be so awesome :D (also never give up, your amazing and an inspiration to all of us!!)
I personally am not disappointed. I am very thankful for your work. Your previous works are a bless for me. I believe that for most of us this isn't just about music or the sheets that you provide. Your videos always give me a push to continue my hobby even at hard times.
I can't wait for his next upload!!
Utterly beautiful. Someone is dicing the heck out of onions in my room right now.
Truly amazing.
Beautiful
Very well played. I actually liked your sheets and therefore I feel a bit sad that they're gone. BUT you give me the inspiration I have needed for a long time and there are still a lot sheets that I haven't played. So even if you'll stop providing sheets, you gave me more than enough. So don't be discouraged!
OH MY GOSH YES, FINALLY!!! ❤️❤️❤️
素晴らしいです。
たくさんのシーンを思い出して泣けました。
つい最近NieR Autmata 2回目クリアしました。
1回目はセーブデータを消す事を選択したので 笑
もう一度トロコンして、全てのエンディングも見て、amazarashiコンテンツもクリアして、でもまだあの世界に居たいです。
NieRは音楽も素晴らしいゲーム。
2b,9s,A2 それぞれのエンディング曲があって、あの歌詞もあっての終わりなんだと思ってます。
世界観を壊さないで、大切に演奏してくださってありがとうございます。
これからもあの作品がたくさんの人に愛される事を願ってます。
I've been playing it since December 2019, and this is the best, what I ever played. Thank you for arrangement!!
P.S.: the passage in 3:59 are very complicated.. But despite my 14, I've played it))
Ugh this game is so beautiful in so many ways. Just listening to that melody brings tears to my eyes 😢
Suggestion wise
TOKYO GHOUL RE OP LIKE PLZzzz?
Else mahoutsukai no yome op or refrain would be cool
ALSO COME ONNNN
RE:ZERO ED STAY ALIVEEEE
SENPAIIII
tokyo ghoul Re plssss
i agree with all of that ;d
Yeh Kun already done
But I doubt it would sound that good on piano🤔
Yeh Kun mahoutsukai OST yeeeeessss
@Animenz Piano Sheets
Now I can't speak for everyone, but I know with certainty that I could never be disappointed in you. Not after you have given me so much already. From the moment I looked up “Only My Railgun” covers, to when I saw you in concert, to now, you have been a source of happiness, and inspiration for me with your beautiful piano works. Like any proficient musician, you pour your heart and soul into your work. You keep going in the face of adversity. An example of this is at the concert I saw you, you were suffering from an illness (a very strong flu if I remember correctly) but you kept going at your best, and gave a wonderful performance including some of your most difficult covers with several encores. It wasn't just about “the show must go on” you did it because you love the piano, you love your work, and you love your fans. To this day you continue trying your best, touring the world, spreading the amazing sound of anime on piano. No matter the difficulty you keep going, making your place in peoples hearts with your sound (yes I'm gonna reference shigatsu wa kimi no uso). I think I can speak for others on this note that if you ever need support, your fans will be glad to help in any way we can, so that you may continue rocking the world as the virtuosic master of anime on piano that is Animenz.
Good luck in Tokyo, and remember, never give up cause it's just not like you :)
We will support you, even if you carry the weight of the world on your back.
Please don't stop with what you are doing, you are the reason why I started playing the piano to make one of my dreams I had since I was a kid come true! My goal is definitely to play your epic arrangements, it's the best music for piano, right next to classic. Viele Grüße und hoffentlich findest du wieder Inspiration und Motivation. :)
7 mins long yesssss haha
Haven’t you uploaded a version to bilibili btw?
Love the left hand in this one a lot, adds extra melodies and sub melodies. Three hand technique classics. Beautiful and immersive.
I will always be fooled by the multivoicing haha
Always have to check if u added an extra hand in there or not
Beautiful masterpiece. No matter what other people think, Animenz is always Animenz! who is my teacher, predecessor, friend and the one bring me back to the fascinating world of music. Though tired at a moment, the fire in your heart never burn out, so am I.

Nier Automata pieces are always welcome!! Love these things so much
Pod: Proposal:accept help
Me: Yes, we must defeat the final boss: Square enix
That was sad as fuck.
I remember crying so much during the ending sequence and secretly hoping to defeat Square Enix and get the ending we all deserved.
I couldn’t do it, but well, as Pod 042 says:
“A future is not given to you. It is something you must take for yourself.”
@@hiimshana That game really surprised me. I was already looking forward to it but I didn't thought it would exceed that much my expectations...
Nier automata will always have a place in my heart.
I'm also going through a rough spot as a musician at the moment but I want to let you know that I hope we can both get through this rough patch! You've inspired me a lot as a pianist. When I was little I hated the piano even when I took lessons and then I started playing classical music and it was better but still not enough. About 5 and a half years ago I discovered your channel and your sheets and they made me really passionate about playing piano and pushed me to get better at piano so I could play the beautiful melodies and harmonies you laid out myself. This year at 18, I became a piano teacher and I've loved the piano and would never want to part from it because your music challenged me and really brought life to the instrument for me. Even if you never create another sheet again I want you to know that you still have many supporters that you've inspired and that will listen to whatever you choose to produce. I'll definitely support you no matter what path you choose. Thank you for so many years of beautiful music and sheets Animenz
I hope this Japanese-made work will spread all over the world and at the same time spread the thoughts of the work all over the world.
In my opinion this is your best, most emotional arrangement yet.
Was worth the one month wait :)
This song is a masterpiece. I can't stop listening to your songs
:O THERE IT ISSSSSSSSSSSSSSS OMFG !!! I WAITED SO LONG FOR IT
You were the first pianist i suscribed when i started playing 4 years ago and i keep getting as happy as the first day when i see the notification of a new cover. Your arrangements are truly unique. Keep it up, please!
Senpai is back 💓
The best bit at the end was that damper buzz at the end. Very satisfying, Animenz.
Please do Karakai Jouzo no Takagi-san opening, it'll be perfect on piano
Been so long since I played this game, it's like all those emotions came back with this video.
You’re incredibly talented! You just perfectly master the piano 😁
