SPECIALZ - Jujutsu Kaisen S2 OP2 [Piano] /King Gnu
HTML-код

- U R MY SPECIAL.
This is my piano arrangement of SPECIALZ by King Gnu, the 2nd OP of Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2. It’s not an exaggeration to say that the Shibuya Incident Arc was really peak anime in 2023 - and I absolutely enjoyed the crazy ride.
SPECIALZ is a very dark piece and the aggressive hammering beat is essentially creating an atmosphere of a “death march” for all the characters in Jujutsu Kaisen. I tried my best to translate the “hammering” of the original song as good as possible on the piano, but I also added a few additional melody layers in 0:35, 1:56 and 2:28 to contrast the peaceful side of the music.
① Iguchi-san vs Tsuneta-san (the two vocalists of King Gnu)
I decided to use different voice ranges for the main melody because each range has a different voice characteristic. The voice of Iguchi-san has been assigned to the higher range (0:50) while Tsuneta-san is covering the lower range (0:54). I kept the voice splitting fairly consistent for both the verse and the chorus to create a duet between these voices on the piano. It’s also more interesting to play too.
② Cursed by a Hammer
If you have watched the Music Video of SPECIALZ you’d probably notice many scenes featuring people doing a hammering motion in a monotone rhythm. I tried to do the same for the piano and the constant left hand jumping in the verse (0:19) and in the chorus (0:50) is basically mirroring the hammering beats of the music. There are also a few times, where I have to use unusual hand splitting to continue the hammering beats such as in 2:36.
③ The mystery bass
When arranging this piece, I was not sure if the chord progression in 1:48 is D7-A7-D7 or D7-F#m-E . But I decided to keep the A7 chord for this arrangement after all because it’s more similar to the chord progressions in classical music.
I also did a “Shibuya Crossing” (aka Hand Crossing) on the piano in 0:35 and 2:36. And after the Shibuya incident, not only Shibuya but whole Tokyo is in a great danger now. I really hope that MAPPA will start producing Season 3 soon!
Alright, that would be everything!
Thank you so much for your support in the year 2023! All of you are very special(z) to me.
And thanks to the active anime piano community, I will continue doing my best!
Please look forward to the new projects I will be working on in the year 2024.
See you again in my next video!
WE R SPECIAL.

Happy New Year! 🎆🎆🎆
Happy new year animenz🥰
Happy new year ANIMENZZZZZZ❤❤

Happy new year!! Love your arrangements 🫶🏻
２０２４もアニメンズさんの音楽の中にいたい‼️絶対に…😆
この価値に代わりがきくものなんてありません😄✌️
When are we getting Kobayashi san's dragon maid opening 😭😭😭

You're so talented!! Keep up your great work!! ✨
You are my specialz yay
太好听了！！！🥰
this made me like the actual intro
no one making it out of this one🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Anime: Yuji having the worst moment of his entire life and clawing at the ground
*This song plays in the background*
nahhh... sounds soo good on piano
This is my fav anime music of all time!! Thanks for this! I love how dark it sounds and it imitates the original version perfectly
amazing as usual
Love it. Conveys the original so well but has something ineffable all its own.
Anyone knows whats up with him? Did he quit?
lol no he goes on breaks every now and then
He takes months at a time to arrange his covers, so he's probably still working on his next pieces. This level of arrangement can't be done in a couple weeks like a lot of other anime cover channels.
不愧是A叔，太好聽了
I love your skill
As the strongest pianist, Animenz fought the piano, the king of instruments. He Began to stretch his fingers. The piano shrunk back in fear then, Animenz said : "Stand proud, you are STRONG.✍️✍️🔥🔥🔥
lmaooo
You can cook
Who let this man in the kitchen? He cooked pretty hard
"Stand proud, you are MY SPECIALZ"
DONT MAKE THIS A COPYPASTA
“If I had to arrange a song as unique as this, it might be a little draining”
“But would you choke?”
“Nah, I’d perform”
You’re sick! Thank you for all of these bangers over the years man!
actually original "i'd win" joke, finally
@@swoopify2044 this comment deserves the pin
Well, We all know how that ended😂😂😂
had to like it to make it 666
i dare you to play this in shibuya station
not even sukuna is this evil
That would terrify everyone, however you never know. Sukuna might actually show up
With his sexy body build
@@FugUuuu-ne3gj what the hell is even that
@@FugUuuu-ne3gj🥶
WERE MAKING IT OUT OF SHIBUYA WITH THIS ONE 🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
just kidding bruh aint nobody making it out
No one is making it out of Shibuya
@@capybara6996 exactly
u not going nowhere with toji and sukuna running around the server
NO WE'RE NOT ‼️🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥🔥☠️
No we are not 😢
What a groovy way to end 2023!
A couple of creative choices really leveled up the musicality for me on this one:
0:35: The melody jumps back and forth across the rolling left hand, using the right hand (!) to hit the bass line
2:20 The walking bass absent of any ornaments brings a calm resolution to the prior build up
2:28 The melody again jumps in between each hand, gently layered underneath the bass and harmonies
Happy new year!
Happy new year to you too! 🎉
I hope I can see your comments in my next videos as well!
@@Animenzzzwhen will said video come out
2:20 and 2:28 are my fav parts too! Its so nice!
@@Animenzzzyour next videos rn:
I hope its not also the way to end 2024 :/
We miss you mate
yes, we do.
We do
He takes months at a time to arrange his covers, so he's probably still working on his next pieces. This level of arrangement can't be done in a couple weeks like a lot of other anime cover channels.
@@bigpapi1860The most he’s taken is 5 months between videos. It’s been 8 now. Hopefully he’s just taking a break and will have us a new arrangement by the end of the year.
New videos when???
Anybody still waiting for his new video like me a true fan😅😊
yes. I've been waiting for his new video every day since he uploaded this video.
Always….
So true
I check every week only to find nothing new 😂
Let him have his time to cook
King Gnu🎤👑
Animenz🎹👑
🎶U R MY SPECIAL🔁
I like you profil
Nana my favorite anime
@@dzakiramadhan3032 me too😃
bro paid 330 dollar and still didn't get a reply
Man that’s sad even after u paid 330 bucks
This is a beautiful misunderstanding 😅 The amount is in New Taiwan Dollars (TWD), not in US Dollars (USD). I believe Animenz has absolute freedom to choose whom to reply to, so it's okay 👌 But still, thank you for your comment and concern 💛@@xxriellixx978yt3
What a nice way to end 2023 and have a happy new year Animenz!
Not gonna lie, 0:10, that repeated notes imitating the lower voice vibrationsof the original was very unexpected,.
And have to say, out of all your arrangements, the detail is more well shown in this arrangement. For example, the multiple voices in 0:40, the accented strong beat in the choruses, the sudden silence in 2:20, the groovy 2:27, the emphasised "WE R SPECIAL" in the end, really shows your improvement throughout your piano arranging career.
Thank you! I am still learning a lot of things with each new piano arrangement.
The piano is truly the most versatile instrument ever 🎹
@@Animenzzz It's a complex instrument, which makes it funnn.
Person watching: “Can someone play this song?”
Animenz: “Nah I’d Win”
What kind of shitty failed attempt at a reference is this
I think bro forgot his password
fr
I miss you:(
Wow… The repetition of those notes at 0:12 really imitates King Gnu.
so，where are you now，animenz？
Animenz, when are you uploading a new video?
Maybe animenz was in shibuya
@@someone_riri9704Great……
Who think Animenz should play MASHLE's opening?
👇
Bro forgot he has a youtube chanel to maintain
他の人のピアノだとよく「なんでそこ音変えるん...」とかなってあんま心地よく聞けなかったけど、この人のピアノはあくまで原曲をできるだけ忠実に再現しようとしてる感じがしてとても好き
Great work!!!!!!
Yes‼︎‼︎
ほんとに！！！！ほんとにそうなんです！！
I strongly agree!!!
This arrangement highlights what I love so much about King Gnu in the first place. I love when your right hand changes octaves depending on which singer is singing the melody. Love the contrast between their two voices
I think I am the only one that notice this part! As a fan of King Gnu for the the chemistry between two vocals, i also love this part very much!
Exactly this!
@@syifabunga922same same
I wonder, if you are alright. Please stay safe
Are you the best pianist because you’re Animenz? Or are you Animenz because you’re the best pianist?
then animenz turned to his piano and said "stand proud piano, you were strong"
brainrot comments
我从b站跑到这来催你更新😡👊
MASTERPIECE FOR JJTSU FANS🔥🔥🔥
Yesss
WE'RE HONORED WITH THIS ONE 🔥🔥🔥🔥
這次有點消失太久了呦～
是忘記youtube密碼嗎？
要不要考慮吃記憶吐司回復呢？🤪
While it's rare for Animenz to cover 2 openings from the same season
We knew JJK's openings were too good to not be covered by animenz
I need you backkkk, hope you’re doing well!
he die
@@LingLing-t1iI hope you meant to put a question mark and not a period after that statement!!!!!
A piece fitting for jogoat. When jogoat said Sukuna was strong it truly was an incredible moment.
fire in za hol
Bro when will you upload
Animenzさん、いつも弾いてくれて、気分を晴らしてくれて、ありがとうございました。もう4年間、いつも辛かったり人生の美しさが分からなくなったりするときにご演奏を聴かせてもらっていまして、ここまで生き延びられたのはAnimenzさんのおかげです！ご演奏を視聴する時、周りのことを忘れて、ピアノを弾く気が出ます。おかげで私のスキルも少しずつ上達しています。新しい演奏の動画は楽しみです！
Excellent arrangement, love how you transcribed the guitar riff parts.
Thank you for a year full of Animenz' arrangements, please spoil us even more next year haha. Happy 2024! 🙂
**Everyone dying**
Yuta in Africa:
Seriously though, what was Yuta doing in Africa the whole time? 😂
@@AnimenzzzHe was training with Miguel to retain his special grade status after losing Rika's soul, which he accomplished after a couple of months, it's not clear whether or not he was still there during the Shibuya incident, because the incident ends around 11:45 pm and we see him saving that girl at 1:30 am, so he was most likely already in Japan doing something else, like Yuki. Amazing arrangement as always by the way!
Animenz: posta 3 vídeos.
Animenz: Desaparece por 1 ano.
いろんなピアノアレンジ聴いたけど、これが一番…なんと表現したらいいか、感動したというか、好きになったというか、やみつきになったというか
楽譜読めないし、ピアノ弾けないし、当然音楽理論もわからないけど
なにがそんなに惹かれてやまないのか知りたいぐらい衝撃を受けた
リズムとアレンジ能力です
他も素晴らしいけど、彼はそれを売りにしています。
“the next station is shibuya” YOU ARE MY SPECIAL 🗣️🗣️
We miss you, it's been 7 months since the last video, come back soon !
Is he taking a break?
He needs breaks sometimes, but we're still going to worry about him because it's been seven months since he posted this!
Hes been on like a massive tour recently, a break only makes sense
he die
やっぱ動画アップされてなくて悲しい😢大丈夫なのかな？？
Hope you get back soon, we need you !
- But if Paganini will resurect at full power?
- It'll be really difficult
- Would you lose?
- Nah. I'd win..
Come back bro
Anybody knows if he's ok?
He went on Asia concert tour.
A few months ago...
I hope he doesnt disappear like theishter
@@necromice_cream what happened to theishter again?
@EmptageFamily he hasnt posted in a couple years without any updates
これ好きすぎて何回も聞きに来ちゃう。特にてれれれれれれのところめっちゃ好き
It looks so fun to play with the jumpy right hand.
I heard this song before but wasn't one of my favorites, but your arrangements always help to view the original songs out of a new perspective. I don't watch animes, but through your channel i found japanese music. And now 70% of my playlists are japanese songs (don't know if they are from animes). I'm even learning Japanese just to understand the lyrics. I also played some your songs(Avid, Kyouran Hey Kids, aLIEz, Merry go round of life, took very long though) and my piano teacher is amazed by every song of yours. My goal is to someday play most of your songs, I will probably do it my whole life, but it will definitly be a fun journey. Thank you
Where are you😢
He make an other mastherpiece don't worry 👹
72 limbcombre drive, Tennessee
I'm joking
YOU ARE MY SPECIALZ!!!!
Thank you so much Animez for covering this piece!!!!
I’ve been waiting for this FOREVER!
JJK S2 has been a legend and also the openings!!!!
Everyone, have a happy new year!
❤❤❤❤❤
It’s you again lol
1:49 Why do the “English” parts of specialz have emojis and numbers?
"Only I should die...! JUST DIE ALREADY!!"
I miss you
You are my special
-My bestoo frindo _
Why doesn't he post Vids anymore?
Hes waiting for an epic amazing comeback. When we dont see it coming hes gonna upload. It could literally upload rn
he die
@@LingLing-t1ino☹️
Believe it or not, I found a way to predict, when you upload. It‘s always when I‘m hungover. And I am eternally grateful.
can u get hungover everyday for all our sakes?
Animenz you should do 01/Zero ichi that would be very amazing 🔥🔥🔥💀
You make the piano sound so impactful on its own, just like the original song. Beautiful cover ❤
Day 1 of asking for “Let me Down” by Dawid Podsialdo in Cuberpunk: Edgerunners!!!
えええ🤩‼️この曲がアニメンズさんのアレンジで聴けるなんて😆めちゃくちゃ楽しみです🤗今年も素敵な音楽や思い出を沢山ありがとうございました😊
I have been waiting for your arrangement of specialz since I first heard the opening. The wait is finally over.
Hand crossing at 0:35 was way too cool, made me so happy to see/hear haha
この人の勇者のピアノカバーを聴いてみたい
Animenz about to become the Honored One with this one 🗣️🔥💯
Can you play Tsukiumi no Yurikago, the ending 1 of Shiroi Suna no Auqatope?
Parece que era ontem que eu com 14 anos me imaginava tocando a versão dele de Unravel na frente do todo mundo me sentindo incrível e agora, com quase 23 anos, estou me imaginando tocando Specialz na frente de todo mundo me sentindo incrível também
Tomorrow im going to get my first piano and start learning it, all because of animenz, and the same feeling you had at 14 and now 23
These breaks are hard to live through but with every passing day I’ll be even happier to see a new upload when he comes back🙏
Same, i feel nostalgic of the years (1 or 2 years ago ) he uploaded every week or two. What a time to be alive.
YOU ARE NOT SPECIAL!
You have to do MASHLE OP 2. BLING BLANG BLANG BORN.
Did he also disappeared like theister. I don't want him disappear like that too :(
I'm getting worried too
he was on tour for a few months, thats probably why he is not posting in a while
@danielpark4253 Thanks for clearing my doubts 😁
B站还没过审核吗😙
Rest in peace legend your piece will forever be remembered by me
Plz request haru(sunny) - yorushika
Please, make a piano cover for Kimetsu No Yaiba season 4 episode 8 ending song!
"No matter what the others says, you are my special."
This will be the final piano arrangement I listen to, as well as the final comment I'll write, in 2023.
Well, I suppose it's already 2024 over in Japan...
Anyway, this just sounds EXTREMELY cool and badass and I honestly just want to learn this so bad as this seems super fun to play!!! --is pretty much all I have to say with regards to this masterpiece of an arrangement that hasn't left my head for the past two days and might go down as one of my all time favorites of yours. Though that might be how I feel every time you drop a new video. When it comes to your arrangements I really can't decide which ones I like the most, they all simply are my specialz ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Be that as it may, though finding time and energy to do anything anipiano related at all while being fulltime employed has proven to be rather difficult, I plan to be more active in the community again myself the coming year and I'm looking forward to more bangers from you in 2024!
Happy New Year, Animenz and anyone reading this^^
OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH LOL, RECENTLY A FEW DAYS AGO I STARTED LISTENING TO THIS SONG ALOT AND YESTERDAY I WAS THINKING IF YOU WERE GONNA DO THIS SONG AND IT HAPPENED!!!!!! WHAT A WAY TO END THE YEAR! 🔥
Animenz, thank you for serving this 2023 with all of these astounding pieces of music. Happy new year to you and your family 🎉❤
this video deserves much much more likes then it has now
This is going to be the longest 5 hours of my life
When I hear a song like this with a very diverse instrumental and crazy vocals, I think it would be impossible to convey on the piano the whole spectrum of emotions that the song encompasses. But, Animenz exceeds even the most daring expectations and listening to this piano arrangement makes me happy as a baby and amazed at the same time.
Can you play Oshi No Ko Season 2's Op? It sounds like it would be very fun for you to arrange. It's pretty jumpy and it's a good song.
I was hoping you would make a Cover of Specialz❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉
please...
I Really Want to Stay at Your House...
Can you please do White Album 2??? That song is one of the piano pieces I really loved, though not many remember the series anymore.
Thank you for the amazing covers this year Animenz♥️ See you in 2024.
YOU ARE MY SPECIAL🔥
Sukuna's fingers in full action with this one let's go.
Can't believe JJK S2 has already endeddd, its like yesterday when it was released
PLEASE DADDIMENZ RED SWAN PLEASEEE 😭🙏
