Namae no Nai Kaibutsu - Psycho-Pass ED1 [full] [piano] (名前のない怪物 - サイコパス ED1)

- It's been a while and thanks for your immense patience. Maybe this video can almost celebrate 100 subscribers.
Anyways, I admit that I've tried to record this on a few weekends over the past few months but I just wasn't satisfied. In the end, I realized that this song encompasses all the struggle we encounter. Some tribulation tries us and we attempt to counter an undesired reality by toppling some part of the hindrance. Recording this cover was tough but it taught me to set realistic goals for myself.
About the arrangement:
There's no way to describe the raw power of the original song. It's epic enough on its own so all I did was extend the full version to make it more complete. Thus, I used this opportunity to compress the impact of a full rock-band concert into a solo piano piece.
Even though I've played Pianeet, Animenz, and Tehishter's songs before, this song is definitely in the top 10 hardest anisongs I've played since the difficulty is off-the-charts. I used a lot of jumping chords/octaves in both hands and included the fastest arpeggios. Not to mention the last 2 very unpianistic pages - which have pushed me to my current technical limit [then again, I don't have as much time to practice compared to pre-college years]. The other shenanigans considered with those technical difficulties, make this piece rewarding but cringe-worthy to play.
I've also included some dissonant harmonies to embody the internal conflict in Psycho-Pass. The "bridge" section of the arrangement is the eye of this hurricane and it's personally my favorite part of the song and the original.
My favorite technique to execute here was probably the left hand pseudo-glissando at 3:15. I notated it similar to how Prokofiev notated double note arpeggios in his 3rd piano concerto --- which some pianists approximate with glissandos.
Note: if you stuck it out to the end and looked carefully, you can see that my left thumb is injured, though not from piano.
For the next cover, I'm thinking something like Madoka.

Pretty fucking impressive.
+Theishter - Anime on Piano When I met you and Animenz for the first time at the Steinway Gallery nearly 2 years ago, never did I imagine that I would be making covers, much less having this much feedback. And I doubt things would be the same if hadn't discovered your sheets for Sword Art Online, Robotics;Notes, and Bakemonogatari. Therefore thank you, Ishter, for inspiring me to make covers.
+Chris Luan (阮克理) I hope success comes to your performances now and in the future. Seriously, this is good stuff~ I think every anime pianist provide their own style to the community, and yours is very very sophisticated. You have my full support!
+Theishter - Anime on Piano Hehehe, thanks. Likewise to you! Rooting for your 400k subscriber-ship soon.
Theishter - Anime on Piano
Hello Theister I am your fan!!
4 years later I still come back to listen to this masterpiece
Thanks for listening
Your audio sounds top notch, don't worry, it's been put to good use :)
As for this arrangement, this is extraordinary! I love all the techniques and embellishments in it. It was really powerful, and I love that run at 3:15! The dissonance is really prominent in this performance.
Keep up the great work!
Good! I wanted to make dissonance a main feature in this arrangement, because it musically fits the mood of the store.
Pretty crazy stuff. This arrangement is almost like a 'grab-bag' of cool piano techniques. Well played my friend.
+Piano Man A 'grab-bag'? The equivalent of that is probably a jar of assorted sweets, if we're on the same wavelength.
Yup.
1:30: I like how he switches the melody from the left hand to the right hand 😄
This is the future of anime piano(no offense theishter you are awesome too, the both of you are great.)
Thanks, and I mean all of us, including you the viewers/audience/our fans, are part of the future of anime piano! Without you, there'd be no sustainable community. And without my relatives, teachers, my friend MDZ, and both TheIshter and Animenz, I would not have developed the experience for piano and I would not have even known about this piano genre. So I'd like to thank them!
Your hands are like beautiful, talented, terrifying spiders. Seriously though, everything about this was extremely impressive, particularly those jumps. Awesome job.
+Peter Murphy Hopefully not venomous spiders. Thanks.
This is absolutely phenomenal! I’m subscribed to most of the “big names” in anime piano (Animenz, Fonzi M, Theishter, etc.), but this cover stood out to me and is impressive beyond anything else I’ve seen on piano. I don’t know how I haven’t found your channel before, you’re amazing! (sorry for over-the-top praise, I’m a sucker for good music lol)
優しいところから力強い表現までされていて聴き入ってしまいました✨
とても素敵ですね！
I've never heard such a reproducible performance before.
The use of leaps and the overwhelming number of notes beautifully recreate the tremendous mass of the orchestration of the original song on the piano... The quality is high and the atmosphere of that fascinating song is fully expressed, it's really great! Thank you very much!!

ここまで再現性の高い演奏聴くのは初めてだわ
跳躍技の活用と圧倒的音数で原曲のオーケストレーションの凄まじい質量をピアノで見事に再現している…クオリティが高いしあの魅力的な雰囲気をたっぷり表現できてて本当に最高ですありがとう！！
すばらしい👍
ありがとう！
なんか手がどアップしてきたお
うますぎだお！
Came here to listen again this godly arrangement and it ages so well. One of your Iconic and technically demanding performance in my opinion.
Thanks for listening again.
OMG so beautiful
I watch it every morning when I wake up
Lol, 9 months later, do you still do that?
@@ChrisLuan lol no but I come back sometimes :)
:O
Damn, look at the time span of this comment thread. 2 years ago...1 year ago...1 day ago...
Wow, found a great person!
=o
What a masterpiece......too underrated
TY for the kind words
This was spectacular, truly this is my favorite play through of this song on piano! Wonderful job, I'm simply in awe! ;D
Thanks. Btw, of all the profile pics in the comments, yours is discrete in a good way. :D
ELEGANT MASTERPIECE.
とても素晴らしいです！
これはもっと評価されるべき
そう言ってくれて、ありがとう！
頑張り続けます。(*•̀ᴗ•́*)و ̑̑
Thank you so much for playing this. Namae no Nai Kaibutsu is in my top 3 favorite anime songs and I'm so glad you uploaded this video so people could hear such a breathtaking version of it. You made an already beautiful song sound even more beautiful.
I would love to see a Madoka video! Perhaps Magia or Sis Puella Magica... the show has an amazing soundtrack.
+notgothic24 Oh yes it does. Even after 4 years, I can still remember this series more vividly than others and I suspect the "Madoka"-tier soundtrack played a part. [Quotations and diction used to avoid spoilers in my allusion there.] I actually have 2 arrangements (by Japanese arranger tomoya) which I re-transcribed and edited as well as a special arrangement of Connect, one of my favorite OPs.
+Chris Luan (阮克理) Madoka is one of those series that stay in your head long after you've finished watching it. I just finished rewatching the show for the third time a few days ago and I've been listening to the soundtrack nonstop.
This is still as insane and breathtaking as the first time I heard it. The sheer complexity of your arrangements (and this one in particular) always leave me awestruck and speechless hahaha...
I am glad to have found you when you had around 120 subs. So I can brag that I knew you before you were famous :P. The subs and views will come, I am sure of that hahahha.....
Already 4 years have past huh... Can't believe it, time sure flies by fast.
I hope one day I am able to play as good as you :'))
Thanks for sticking around, real OG. Time goes too fast actually...
Keep going at it!
Tribute to makishima the only other anime character who was on par with light in greatness
Ya, season 1 had a great cast
That punch at the end. "One PUUUUUNCH"
Fantastic playing, btw. Cheers!
Cheers
Holy shit it is fucking wild that any youtuber can make this kinda shit that would kick most of animenz's works outta the park at 100 subscribers
monkahmm
When i saw this i thought to myself that this is an arrangement that i might finally be able to play. I was wrong lol
You also got yourself a sub, good job :D
Keep working at it! It just takes a tremendous amount of perseverance and effort. Thanks.
subscribed. this is fucking incredible.
+James Chou Anime Piano Thanks! :D
what a great......EPIC arrangement! it is soooo nice to listen ! it is just like...the combined version of animenz's and marasy's ,GREAT JOB!
Thanks..feel free to share haha.
I've been listening to Animenz's arrangements all this time, thinking there could be nothing better then his play style, BUT I KID YOU NOT YOU ARE OFFICIALLY MY FAVOURITE PIANIST ON NOT JUST RUclips.
I hope I can surpass those expectations in future uploads, whenever they may be. Thank you for your kind words.
Ahhhhhhh, such an epic arrangement, it encompasses the genius of thought, creativity, reminiscences, loves and experiences in a single piece with many moods and shifts of feeling, please keep the uploads, you're amazing.
+H. Bellz Hopefully my efforts put into each cover justify the amount of time between uploads. Thanks for your thoughts, I'm glad the song spoke out to you sentimentally.
Each year when I come back to listen to this cover, I still get massive chills from the sheer power level shown throughout the entire performance. It holds a special place in my heart as much as any Theishter or Animenz cover out there.
:o Happy New Year's I guess
@@ChrisLuan Happy new years and this arrangement is still as amazing as ever xD
上手すぎる…！
😸!!
Это действительно сильно! Экспрессивно и нежно одновременно.
На ваши пальцы и руки можно смотреть вечно :D
Thank u, man! This is really awesome ♥
It was a challenge to play it in one go. I'm relieved I was able to convey the power and expressiveness of the song. I'll try to continue, after I recover.
Absolutely. Sensational. Are you even human, 'Chris', or to give you your proper name, Alien Overlord Luan? I'm astounded. I can literally only dream of playing this as a self-taught noob. Thank you for your fantastic covers and for inspiring me with your COLORS cover to learn the song myself. Keep pumping out amazing vids
Sometimes I wish I were "overlord" level. Keep up the work and hope you eventually reach your goals!
Don't tell me you arranged it with relative pitch. That's so epic. The left patterns are interesting. 4:02 finally I can hear it in pure piano, well done!
Hey, so I'm 99% sure I have absolute pitch (or really really really good relative pitch). Immediately after hearing the start of a song, I can identify the key or tonality. When I was a kid, my teacher also tested this. My teacher played random chords in random registers while I blindfolded. Then, I'd have to go to the piano and replay the same chords/notes.
Thanks! I try to keep things as interesting as possible.
4:02 is like the prayer to your personal god. It's the eye of the hurricane, the calm as the maelstrom surrounds you.
5ans plus tard je suis de nouveau la pour écouter cette merveille 🔥
Ce n'est jamais trop tard. Merci 👍
It's beautiful
You gave me strength and motivation to play the piano further
I can’t convey my emotions, but you lit a spark in me, because of which I will work even harder to play better than you once.
Just thank you
👍 Keep up the work
one of my fav covers
:o
こりゃあすげえ、、、、、
ありがとう！ちょっと変けど、返事をしたと思った．．．
omg... sooooo beautiful...this arrangement best expresses the world of the anime.
I just ascended fr fr
Impressive jumps, patterns variety, cool arpeggios, LH melody, 3 hand technique... What else can be so great, oh yeah EVERYTHING!
Subbed m8
Haha, thanks m8!! Glad you liked it.
Amazing play song im whaiting joe jenkins play this song with piano,
The ending punch :)
Not even kidding: 1) It's a very defiant punch...a symbolic gesture that fits with the theme of the show and 2) I always wanted to try a cool move in a piano cover (like some of Animenz's hand swipes.)
素晴らしい演奏で、6分36秒が一瞬に感じられます。
聞いてくれてありがとう！
Life song...Love this version.Thanks for covering it.You showed me that you don't have to follow the original but create another lovely version.
My pleasure. Glad you liked it.
Absolutely beautiful. Thanks for the cover. Sidenote: Painting your finger nails as a pianist seems like a good (if not slightly insane) idea for a youtuber who shows their hands a lot. Good luck in your endeavors.
+Eve Mei Thanks! I'm glad that you found my attempt to depict the dystopia as something beautiful. They say beauty is in the eye of the beholder, as is the case in literature (i.e. The Scarlet Letter) and in music (i.e. Liszt's Sonata in B minor).
Are sheets available for this arrangement ? It sounds so freakin amazing and the best version of psycho pass ed I've ever heard!!
Wa!!!!! holy. .
o.o''
Have been finding for the melody of the violin for so long. Thank you for doing all of it!
Oh ok, I'm not sure what I did, since this is a piano transcription. But I'm glad you found it useful.
300 Subscribers!! You're really awesome, I hope you will make more cover, you're very talented!
10k views :D
Wow, I'd never imagine it'd get 10k views, or that I'd reach 300 subscribers already...
You deserve it really!
Awesome skill, i have never seen that in anime's piano covers
I can't wait for an other video :D
狂気っぽくていい
狂気のように編曲して弾いてよかった。聞いてくれてありがとう。
very very very good:::::::::
:O
Amazing man! 👏👏
Thanks!
this is just amazing and im always coming back to watch this incredible piece, and now nearly learnt this. I hope to master this insane arrangement
Looking forward to your upload! 😌
Well, this is indeed the most beautifl cover of this song i've ever seen, i'm just amazed by your technique
Great job, i'll share your work with a big pleasure
+Humble Crumble The song is just too good. It is one of the most evocative songs in my library so I figured I had to cover it.
Agreed !
Thank you for sharing such a piece of work :)
This is just hands down epic
*Hand up* epic
best anime theme piano cover there is. nuff said
Haha, the original ED is one of the best themes out there anyways.
Chris Luan (阮克理) yes it is, i would truely love to be able to play your version.
Incredibly accurate and just downright insane. Well done, bro
Thanks man -- for reference, I think I rated the song "insane" on Sheethost anyways lol.
GIVE US MOAR!!!! I need more of this!!!!!!
+The Kamina There will be more!
Bravo 👏🏻👏🏻🎹 you are talented as hell 🔥🎹awesome channel ✨the dynamics and feelings in this just awesome 👏🏻
Thanks for listening. Glad you enjoyed the contrast and expression
Really impressive, this kind of video makes me want to play piano again.
+Sakaitsu These comments are very motivational. I'm glad you felt that way listening to my cover! Even if we once stopped at one point or another, what matters is that we enrich our lives --- whether that be in continuing or finding other activities. I personally stopped playing piano for a bit, but I'm glad that I returned and gained new musical knowledge and experience.
Wow, so skilled! You will definitely build an audience very soon with these types of arrangements, amazing!
+Pianist Iconic Thanks, I'll strive to retain viewership as well, despite not having much free time as a pre-med student.
This is.......Insane !!
Well, it is...Psycho...Pass. ba dum tss
You are very talented!
Subscribed ! :)
Thanks for listening to both this and Reverie.
the first album I bought, cause I wanted to listen to this in hq. i did not regret my buy. =)
would buy again
That is one of the most sophisticated arrangement I've seen ! Unique left hand patterns , flashy right hand runs
, everything was cleverly put together ! and the fact that you manage to play something this hard is really amazing ! Great job ! You earn the sub :D
+CSMPiano I couldn't have done this without the inspiration from EGOIST for such an epic ED and from the RUclips anipiano community. Haha, I thought it would be fun to explore some technical limits on the piano --- in the end, it was worth the effort. Plus, practicing this song makes for great exercise. EDIT: typo
Chris Luan (阮克理) Your effort is really inspiring to me , since i'm still a newbie in this community XD Looking forward to your future work :D
+CSMPiano Well, I know I can't upload as often as some of the more active RUclipsrs here but I will continue to do my best when I arrange, practice, and record covers. Oh, I wish you happy arranging then!
@@ChrisLuan yes I’m have a lot of fun arranging, hope to see you again too! :P
なめらかで綺麗で上手すぎる！
ありがとう！！
Very good perfomance!!! You are incredible you haven´t failed any key of that difficult sheet.
Haha, thanks..
Simply amazing. There's so much going on I don't know what to comment on xD
Seriously though, this was an epic arrangement and props for being able to play it. Nice fist pump at the end too ; )
+Anime Pianist Toshi-kun Thanks. And I always wanted to do some kind of flashy move for a song like this. I realized that the ending gave me the perfect, irresistible opportunity. ;)
I love how your style is. Even at first, besides of your unique Reverie cover, I thought and feel weird because it's quite different sounds, putting a lot of emotions through tons of notes and all the 3 hand-technique I don't know that is it sometimes too much, and sometimes feel not flowing, but now I know it's a masterpiece besides Pianeet and Animenz. Maybe the recording got improved too, including in this cover really so great and smooth. It is a great different~~and not have to be the same. Not too mention your techniques are at virtuosity level. ;) Glad to know you Chris Luan!
Thanks, I'm always trying to streamline my style because it makes it easier to learn/perform! I hope you'll give me feedback on videos to come!
holy shit... this is amazing...
also like your youtube channel art btw very inspiring hahahhaa
+Zugzwang Anime Piano Thanks. And yeah I've been thinking about my channel art for a while too...it's very minimalistic right now
I like this song & this performance ! You’re good at playing the piano.
Thanks for listening
You earn a sub, it was simply amazing! And your hands... Such a dexterity! I crossed the heaven during 6.35
Glad I was able to bring you to a rapturous finish!
Just amazing! Keep it that way!
Very wonderful cover.
This is incredible
Respect :-)
:-)
Comment décrire ce sentiment intense que vous me faites vivre en jouant ce morceau ...
Okay, without using a translator and with only my knowledge of French from high school (over 5 years ago since my last class)...I think this literally says "how do I describe this intense feeling that makes me live in playing this piece." I could be wrong for the literal and the actual meaning, but I'm glad that I'm able to inspire you and to instill such unquenchable passion !!! :3
EDIT: Please correct my French if I'm wrong! It's been a while, so I do apologize --- but I am eager to re-learn!!! French is such a beautiful language and I wish I had retained more of it from high school !
It’s so beautiful
:3 Thanks
That's incredible.Bravo!
your covers are ballin' dude keep at it
+Cherie's Void I'll do my best.
such a brilliant play. Keep going and you'll become the one you want to be.
I'll keep that in mind for everything I do, as it's been particularly challenging this year --- as I'm graduating in June.
all the best
Best version so far, keep up the good works ^^
Thanks!
Impressive cover
今更ですが聞かせていただきました！
とても上手ですね！これからも頑張ってください
(•̀o•́)ง
Gorgeous
ty
Really liked that brofist at the end 😂
Nearly broke my screen
If I had the tech and know-how, I'd make it "4D IMAX" xD
Exellent work! Bravo!
I like them hands theyre very nice hands wow
you what
thats bloody impressive
+Ryo Yamato I'm glad there was no spilled blood.
Where the hell have you been. Your change of tempo and arpeggio handling is fucking amazing. As good as some of the top mainstream anime pianists out there. This is some real skill and you deserve more subs. +1 from me :)
Actually, I've been quite sick with the flu / a respiratory infection so pretty much haven't practiced (and can't even record) in over a month. I originally had several covers planned before I move back into dorms in 2 weeks but now I'm not so sure I can pull them all off.
Thanks for the "upvote", haha. I just want to showcase my diversity as an arranger and performer --- so this will be my "rock concert on a piano" cover for now, maybe until I cover something else at least as dynamic and powerful as this. =P
Damn man, that's some impressive piano playing right there. All these arpeggios, harmonies, dynamics and tempo control - everything is on point. If you become more consistent with you uploads (like at least 1 new video every month), I can see you reaching hundreds of thousands of subscribers in a matter of 2-3 years.
I understand, that piano isn't your main activity right now, but I'll be looking forward to your next uploads anyway ^^
Good luck with your future endeavours!
Yeah, recently I was thinking about how I could tone down the complexity of my arrangement style and/or do more sentimental songs. This way, I'd be able to be more consistent, like Ishter and Animenz since the #1 hindrance is the technical + mental difficulty. But I'm not sure how that'll work in the scope of academics and EC activities (volunteering etc.)...
...I say this because I recently arranged a relatively "slower" song but I had to spend a lot of time arranging with my piano and computer (I typically just arrange without a piano.) So either way, making a cover is a time consuming process, which is why I respect content creators who upload on a schedule.
Thanks for sharing and empathizing. Good luck with yours too!
Just Beautiful!!!
thank you
your performance is very amazing!
!!!1
love this arrangement of my favorite song :)). great job!!!
👍 Glad you like it! I still can't believe this is the most popular upload after all these years, haha
@@ChrisLuan It might get even more popular with released music sheets :p
just wow!
and playing it leaves you breathless
Oh my goodness.... my goal this summer is to learn this arrangement!! Love this!!!
This summer plus many, many more summers to come 😅😅😅 holy cow it's insane
Ahh, that makes sense. You're in NZ, so you're getting ready for summer. =P
Yes! Every time I see Christmas being associated with snow & winter, I'm like... what's that? Christmas always is hot & sunny! :D at least in the Southern Hemisphere
You won me. Instant subscription!
Thanks!
Your cover really is nice (My favourite yet) ^ . ^ Keep up the good work! You have such pretty hands and your style is beautiful. I're sure you'll reach 100, 000 subs in no time :D
PS: 60 fps was nice too :P
So looking forward for the Code Geass Op. and the Kanaberi Ed.
+Melody Nguyen Hi, Melody, glad to hear that! I'll do what I can, and along the way, hopefull I'll reach out to a larger community! ヾ(^ ^ゞ
+Chris Luan (阮克理) I believe in you! You'll get there (=^▽^=). Good luck for your upcoming covers
amazing
thanks
This video is so underrated!!
Help spread the word if you can! ;P
I did :P
