Thank you for listening to all my anime piano arrangements in 2023! See you again in my next videos in 2024! And remember: YOU ARE MY SPECIAL Happy New Year! 🎆🎆🎆
“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!
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.✍️✍️🔥🔥🔥
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!
Man we miss you and your music, hope that all goes well over there. Take your time if you need to, but we'd be satisfied for nothing more than a notice of your wellbeing. Best wishes
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.
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
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
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! 🙂
I absolutely love that you explain your reasoning for your arrangement. Whenever I'm looking for piano arrangements, I realized that they tend to ignore the "drumming" parts of the song that contribute a lot to the mood of the song. Love the stuff.
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 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
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.
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! 🔥
The way this season ended was so cruel, how are we supposed to wait for the next season now 😭 Thank you for the awesome cover and wishing you a happy new year, you'll always be our special as well.
The detail that he shows in his pieces is amazing, this is true skill. The true dedication that he has for piano is immaculate, this is how the piano is meant to be played. Hopefully we will see you soon animez, and good luck for your next piece.
I started season 2 last week, and when I got to when SPECIALZ started playing, I was so hoping you'd arrange it. So excited for this. On a more personal note; Maik, if and/or when you see this, I hope you know that you are the person I look up to most. I love anime, I love piano, I love classical music, I love anime music, and you just bring those worlds together, and it's truly spectacular. Thank you for doing what you do. Seriously. Wishing you a happy new year.
In less than a week it will be a year since you last played for the world. We await your return, even if you've never left us. The time where you would last upload would always have to arrive. Nevertheless, as long as we stand, and so do others after, your legacy will play for us. Your Variations on Lit were the final piece I played for one of my dearest piano teachers, likely the last piano piece she ever heard. The beauty of your works goes and will go beyond music, inspiration, cultures and time-lines. El. Psy. Kongroo
This season left so much bittersweet taste in my mouth... Loved your arrangement! It's a great way to cherish the season 2's ending and celebrate an awesome year. Blessings fir alk of us in one more year to come! ❤
Amazing arrangement while originally I thought this song could be very hard to be rearranged in piano, yet amazing piano arrangement of Animenz makes the song grow on me. Really want to also listen to EDs 燈 and more than words
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
I was just thinking of how iconic and catchy this opening was, and “I wonder if Animenz will manage to cover it” because it doesnt sound immediately ‘pianistic’ if that makes sense. Needless to say, he blew me away again🎉🎉
I've been listening to you for almost two years and I can definitely say that only your covers satisfy me. I can't find this professionalism and the emotions you create with your notes anywhere else. I didn't know that a person has unlimited creativity until I listened to you. The perfection and emotional explosions in your covers are the best feeling I've ever experienced in my life. I think yours are the best piano covers in the world. I wish you continued success, knowing that you will do even more excellent work in the future. Finally, I want to say something. The soundtrack of the Tanjiro vs Hantengu final fight in Demon Slayer season 3, episode 11 is one of the best and most emotional songs I've ever heard. I hope you know. I can't imagine this piece combined with you. I've been waiting for your cover since the episode came out. I hope you cover it one day. And I hope you read this comment.
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.
Its cool how he made the arrangement sound really good, even though i thought it was gonna be quite hard to make this sound good on piano only, for me it seemed like it would be really hard to make a good piano arrangement for it. Awesome work
Thank you for listening to all my anime piano arrangements in 2023! See you again in my next videos in 2024!
And remember: YOU ARE MY SPECIAL
Happy New Year! 🎆🎆🎆
Happy new year animenz🥰

2:20 and 2:28 are my fav parts too! Its so nice!

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
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!!!
Wow… The repetition of those notes at 0:12 really imitates King Gnu.
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！
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
Person watching: “Can someone play this song?”
Animenz: “Nah I’d Win”
What kind of shitty failed attempt at a reference is this
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! 🙂
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

A piece fitting for jogoat. When jogoat said Sukuna was strong it truly was an incredible moment.

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 😢
I absolutely love that you explain your reasoning for your arrangement. Whenever I'm looking for piano arrangements, I realized that they tend to ignore the "drumming" parts of the song that contribute a lot to the mood of the song. Love the stuff.
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
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 have been waiting for your arrangement of specialz since I first heard the opening. The wait is finally over.
The voicing and slight jazzy feel is so good!!
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🙏
😭
Still waiting😭💔
It looks so fun to play with the jumpy right hand.

You make the piano sound so impactful on its own, just like the original song. Beautiful cover ❤
Animenz, thank you for serving this 2023 with all of these astounding pieces of music. Happy new year to you and your family 🎉❤
WE'RE HONORED WITH THIS ONE 🔥🔥🔥🔥

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! 🔥
MASTERPIECE FOR JJTSU FANS🔥🔥🔥
Yesss
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?
He will come back as a Christmas gift..
I believe
@@pierrotzzz No he did not
He’s dead.
The way this season ended was so cruel, how are we supposed to wait for the next season now 😭
Thank you for the awesome cover and wishing you a happy new year, you'll always be our special as well.
ピアノでspecialsをこんなにも表現出来るの素晴らしい

この人のピアノにはこれが正しいという確信が感じられる。
Thank you so much for including the Romaji in the subtitles!!! I'm Vibing hard asf rn
Hand crossing at 0:35 was way too cool, made me so happy to see/hear haha
WHO ID KILL TO BE YOU! THIS IS BY FAR THE MOST TALENTED LET ALONE HAND MOVEMENT, NEVERMIND PLAYING WHICH IS A WHOLE NEW LEVEL! I LOVE THISSSSSSSSS
The detail that he shows in his pieces is amazing, this is true skill. The true dedication that he has for piano is immaculate, this is how the piano is meant to be played. Hopefully we will see you soon animez, and good luck for your next piece.
I've been waiting for this cover so long! Thank you!!!
カッコよすぎる！！✨最高です👏👏
Weirdly enough I was hoping that you would come out with this yesterday and here we are my prayers have been answered
This will make my day. I THANK YOU AND YOUR TALENT.
OH MY GOD I was waiting for this from the moment SPECIALZ got released
Perfect...perfect as always
I'm literally in love with this piece
