True, it made me almost think that they're in a movie but it's just the video for the stage playing in the background 😂😂 They've really stepped up their game 👏🤍✨
Musicals and stage plays of anime will always be better than the live action adaptation they are so bad. Also have you seen death note the musical? Omg, that was an absolute masterpiece I liked it more than the anime ngl.
Japan works differently. They have taken the model from their medieval arts performers like the Geisha and kabuki actors to this day. Talent agencies run the entertainment. A person may enrol either young or older and train in all subjects by the agency's school and they must live at the dorms if younger or in financial strains. Since the agency once they pass certain levels of training, connects them with all other gigs they must already be trained to veer into all areas of entertainment: acting stage acting voice acting modelling speech dance and even martial arts and acrobatics. Similarly for musicians and solely voice actors. A little less so for producers and composers. So the standards are incredibly high for performers in Japan. With little sleep. I heard Eren's actor for this sayign the harneses hurt like hell and that they all ad bruises in their thighs from use. And that they were barely getting any sleep. But the effort shows. I really hope ppl don't shit on them in NY.
@@Larindarr The other thing about Japan is that the level of commitment by the average employee of a given company is far higher than what you typically see in the US, because with very few exceptions, employees there typically care about the whole company and not just their paycheck. So because of that they tend to push themselves alot harder than employees would in American companies.
@@ThePinkRubber Her gender is known. She is female and it was clearly stated by Izayama in an interview and character books in Kodansha magazines. But then again Izayama is a massive troll that back tracks all he says and cannot be trusted lol. But the publisher of the manga, Kodansha I doubt, would release a character book specifying that.
@@Larindarr There's two spelling of their name; one is female one is masculine. Also in the manga I thought Hange was a guy cuz they don't really have boobs or curves or other female traits.
Sounds to me like Eren is played by a baritone- which, it’s not only refreshing to hear a lead role played by a lower voice type, but also to hear a lead voice that sounds powerful and emotionally engaging without needing to screlt or strain their voice.
I am so glad to see this post I am also so happy to see his vocal quality as a lead and I think he fits the character perfectly and that his timbre is lovely.
He was Romeo in Romeo et Juliette in 2024, and he's going to be Kosei in Your Lie in April in 2025. He was also in a musical comedy drama called Oddboys that's pretty great! The voice actor of Malleus from Twisted Wonderland, Kato Kazuki, is also in that. And actually this year, Kurumu is taking over one of Kazuki's famous roles, the lead character in 1789: Les Amants de la Bastille. There's a disc release of Romeo et Juliette, and 1789 will probably stream, so look for them!
Would they sing those super popular and classic songs from the anime in the musical? It doesn’t show in this video. I am debating whether I should go to see it in Nyc!
HOLY SHIT THE ENTIRE SHOW WAS JUST 🛐🛐🛐🛐🛐 Top tier: acting, raging villagers, singing, vocal balance, harmonies, titans, choreo, lighting, cadet corps rave, keith spitting bars, leads who can dance, marco being bbg, HANGE OMG, Guren no Yumiya, acrobatics, trampoline, people on fly rigs, dude who spun on his head forever, Sashaaa, heartbreak, despair, orchestration, Leviii, Mikasaaaaa, pomegranate, "Tatakae", raging soldiers, smoke, harmonies again, Erwinnn, "TATAKAE", Marcooo
There’s an Attack on Titan musical???!!! Holy shit, this looks like freaking fire! I’m not even a fan of Attack on Titan but I would love to see this live! The special effects of the Titans (which is genially effective and terrifying) and the amazing music. This is awesome!
Ahhhh, I was waiting for this! The moment you uploaded song lyrics for AOT I knew you'd cover the musical at one point! My gosh, those two girls made me cry...not to mention Hange was lowkey creepy in that class XD The actors being literal acrobats fits so well with this but astounds me all the same. I've since learned that these anime musical actors are just on another level. Not to mention, them blending in with the ensemble really drove home that they were a unit now, and not individuals (though of course that's far from the case) 9:52 NO. THAT. HURT. That hurt! That was mean! My gosh, with everything that's happening in the anime now, I almost look back at this like an old memory, or a completely different story. I get to cheer for them again. There's that anime-hope in the air again. Back when there was nowhere to go but up.
I managed to nab a spot for opening night in New York's three-day off-Broadway run this October, and it's only thanks to this compilation that I was convinced it would be at all worth seeing, so thank you _very_ much for it, OP.
Wasn't expecting much after the accident that happened years ago but this actually looks great. ❤ Also, at 6:16 low key felt like I was watching High School Musical for a minute.😂
KURUMU MY BELOVED god I’m so glad I got to see this on it’s first run in Tokyo!!!!! I’m so proud that they’re running it in New York soon too!!!!!!!!!! May many get to experience the wonders of 2.5D musicals and may all be blessed by Okamiya Kurumu’s voice forevermore
Kurumu has come far!! The last time I saw him was in Banana Fish The Stage! So happy to found fellow Kurumu fans here ☺️💕💕💕 I hope you're having the best time!
Thank you for sharing a bit of the show! It looks fantastic! better than the live action in my opinion :3c It can be a top tier musical next to the English Broadway shows. All the things happening during camp were entertaining to watch , especially the flips that I forgot that they were gonna die ._. And wow!! Standing ovation!!!
I’ve literally never heard of this before. Despite being someone who’s left the AoT fandom some time ago and hates musicals… I’m so glad something like this exists. XD
To be cast in this musical must be really though. You have to look and dance like a J-pop star, sing a helluva lot better than one and be able to do all those crazy acrobatics
I'm sure it isn't as hard for Japanese 2.5D (aka stage play) actors though, because they're trained for this. I'm talking about singing, dancing, stunt acting and the acting itself. pretty amazing stuff
I gotta ty for bringing this masterpiece to me bc this video is how I discovered there's a musical for aot and let me tell you, when I went over to NYC to watch it live it changed my life
I have watched the musical in NY last month and I have to say its EPICCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC! The atmosphere there was so good too If you are AOT fans and you have a chance you must watch this musical in live!!!!!
After finding some mostly-full Bluray rips of the songs, on the whole they _genuinely_ are. The orchestration, the vocal performances, how they translated the plot beats into song and where - you can tell that the team really cared.
Has anyone found a way to watch the full show without purchasing the dvd??? right now it’s simply out of my price range but this video alone hooked me and I need to watch the full show !!
I love how these stage plays manage to better than most actual live action anime 😂
True, it made me almost think that they're in a movie but it's just the video for the stage playing in the background 😂😂 They've really stepped up their game 👏🤍✨
That's probably why there are sooo many stage plays of anime/manga/games.
I have noticed the costumes are always a lot better on the plays than movies.
WDYM "most"? They all look better than that live action
Musicals and stage plays of anime will always be better than the live action adaptation they are so bad. Also have you seen death note the musical? Omg, that was an absolute masterpiece I liked it more than the anime ngl.
I feel like every stage actor in Japan needs to have a background in acrobatics before being casted for a role
FR 😭
It's not even limited to this. Nearly every Sailor Moon musical has characters jumping around and doing backflips. Not joking.

Why did Eren's mom's song actually make me cry?
It reminds me of The Prince of Egypt when Moses’ mom was singing
@@arlinabloodgrave omg yes!
Bro the actress cast for Hange is so perfect
I love they set her with deeper tones as a tribute that hange is originally androgynous and her gender is unknown
@@ThePinkRubberYeah I always found that bit cool about the manga, I do understand it’s a change they had to make for the anime though
@@ThePinkRubberabsolutely! i adore that about hange so much

I had no idea there was an AOT musical. This looks epic.
Bro if this shocks just wait until you hear about the death note musical
@@M4H1T00 I've seen the Death Note musical already. Also the Naruto musical.
I like that some of the songs have similar melody to AOT OST
I DIDNT KNOW THIS EXISTED UNTIL RIGHT NOW BUT NOW I DONT KNOW HOW I LIVED WITHOUT THIS INFORMATION.
5:28 I knew that was Yuu just by his dancing technique, so sharp and strong in every move😮
FAX HES SUCH A SKILLED SINGER AND DANCER ITS FANTASTIC
APPARENTLY THEYRE PERFORMING IN NEW YORK THIS OCTOBER AND I FINALLY PURCHASED TICKETS TO WATCH IT LIVE RAAAAAAAA IM SO EXCITED
Bruh. I told my husband that I’m enlisting in the mufukn survey corps biiiiiiiiish. Nah frfr I hope
I get to go too.
you're so lucky!!! enjoy it C:
OMG LUCKY ):
Would they sing those super popular and classic songs from the anime in the musical? It doesn’t show in this video. I am debating whether I should go to see it in Nyc!
OMG SAME SEE YOU THEREREREEE
I feel like this stage adaptation is sooooo underrated! Anyway, you said it all, thanks for what you brought to the community 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Imagine if this was canon aot and the scouts just started Dancing
World would be a better place
Attack on Lalaland
LMAOO real, someone just dies and they're out here like 💃💃💃
i’d love for it to follow the same logic of musicals and if the characters knew they were in one or not 😭
This is incredible!!!! The acting, dancing, and singing?!? Chills!! Ugh!! I wish I could have been there in person to see it!! I want to go so bad!
It says something about the power of musical theater when I, a non fan of aot was super into this.
OR the power of a good story. For which theatre needs.
@@Larindarrthese clips tell you nothing about the story tho
HOLY SHIT THE ENTIRE SHOW WAS JUST 🛐🛐🛐🛐🛐
Top tier: acting, raging villagers, singing, vocal balance, harmonies, titans, choreo, lighting, cadet corps rave, keith spitting bars, leads who can dance, marco being bbg, HANGE OMG, Guren no Yumiya, acrobatics, trampoline, people on fly rigs, dude who spun on his head forever, Sashaaa, heartbreak, despair, orchestration, Leviii, Mikasaaaaa, pomegranate, "Tatakae", raging soldiers, smoke, harmonies again, Erwinnn, "TATAKAE", Marcooo
3:28 HANGE WAS SO GOOD
I can't stress this enough. I just love these videos. Thank you so much!!❤
There’s an Attack on Titan musical???!!!
Holy shit, this looks like freaking fire!
I’m not even a fan of Attack on Titan but I would love to see this live! The special effects of the Titans (which is genially effective and terrifying) and the amazing music. This is awesome!
The actor for Marco (Yasue Kazuaki) also acted as Megumi in the Jujutsu Kaisen stage as well. He is truly dashing for roles like these!
The actress for Mikasa (Sara Takatsuki) plays Maki.
2:32 oh god after watching A Slap on Titan this makes a whole lot more sense now
Ahhhh, I was waiting for this! The moment you uploaded song lyrics for AOT I knew you'd cover the musical at one point! My gosh, those two girls made me cry...not to mention Hange was lowkey creepy in that class XD

4:35 i like how they did the flip in the opening theme
THIS DESERVES TO BE ON BROADWAY!!!!!
IKR!!!!
welll...about thattttt
@@dummyxshowtime I heard.
IT JUST WAS
Okay wtf, this is amazing.
Okay but the Titans effect were just amazing! Like much better than the live action.
I managed to nab a spot for opening night in New York's three-day off-Broadway run this October, and it's only thanks to this compilation that I was convinced it would be at all worth seeing, so thank you _very_ much for it, OP.
SAMEEEE
Wasn't expecting much after the accident that happened years ago but this actually looks great. ❤
Also, at 6:16 low key felt like I was watching High School Musical for a minute.😂
what accident?
@@Gyuujiniirc a cast member lost their lives, and the musical was cancelled, but that was around 5 years ago, and they brought it back.
Just saw them in New York and god it was amazing I never liked musicals but this one changed me
FRRRR IT CHANGED MY LIFE
生身の人間が演じてるの見ると、
調査兵団がいかにかっこいいかが伝わる。
物語の筈なのに見ていると現実に有り得るんだと感動しました。
One thing that captivated me from AOT was the ODM design... and as you said, how cool would it be in real life 😊
KURUMU MY BELOVED god I’m so glad I got to see this on it’s first run in Tokyo!!!!! I’m so proud that they’re running it in New York soon too!!!!!!!!!! May many get to experience the wonders of 2.5D musicals and may all be blessed by Okamiya Kurumu’s voice forevermore
Kurumu has come far!! The last time I saw him was in Banana Fish The Stage! So happy to found fellow Kurumu fans here ☺️💕💕💕 I hope you're having the best time!
Well he's care bear staring down the other person whose voice blesses the world, every week in Oddboys, so that works.
A couple of days ago I was wondering how a stage play would look like. The algorithm has blessed me with knowledge
Thank you for sharing a bit of the show!
It looks fantastic! better than the live action in my opinion :3c It can be a top tier musical next to the English Broadway shows.
All the things happening during camp were entertaining to watch , especially the flips that I forgot that they were gonna die ._.
And wow!! Standing ovation!!!
I was totally vibing to Mikasa's song but then the pomegranate had me wheezing for three minutes!
OH MY GOSH I LOVE THE SONGS SO MUCH😭💙
Thanks for sharing this, I’m extremely impressed by everything in this production!
4:08 this song gives me the will to keep fighting 😭
This looks and sounds amazing! I hope we get to see this on the big screen in the US.
Wow this looks amazing actually! I love how they have background characters doing their own thing as well
I’ve literally never heard of this before. Despite being someone who’s left the AoT fandom some time ago and hates musicals… I’m so glad something like this exists. XD
Marcos high note was angelic.
He's got the vocals ready for heaven's choir 🥰
I didn't know it was even possible to do a musical of aot. This seems pretty cool.
To be cast in this musical must be really though. You have to look and dance like a J-pop star, sing a helluva lot better than one and be able to do all those crazy acrobatics

I just watched it in NYC. I was in the last row, but i still enjoyed it. I only couldnt see erwin on top of the wall jajajaj.
Bruh, this actually looks amazing.
is this my sign to rewatch Attack On Titan?
bro 5:28 part made me insane. now I'm a jean simp (also the bgm fits the way he dances which made it more insane)
this choreo is insane??? 2:21 reminds me of rhythm nation
I had no idea that this existed. I am crying with excitement to watch the full thing. I have stopped at 3:45 and will revisit this video later.
Whattt this looks amazing!!!
It’s illegal to be this good.
Plus why are they all hot wtf
I was getting slight Les Miserables vibes from this, and it FITS SO WELL!!
YAAAY Im sooo glad some one also saw this, I also agree it fits so well.
I have watched the musical in NY last month and I have to say its EPICCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC!
The atmosphere there was so good too
If you are AOT fans and you have a chance you must watch this musical in live!!!!!
2:20 THIS REMINDS ME OF THE THEY DONT CARE ABOUT US FROM MJ THIS IS IT TOUR HELP
This looks great
Wtf this looks insanely good
the goosebumps i got man.... i wish i could watch in person 😢
I didn't even know there was a musical but this is incredible!
8:01 Lol 😂the pomegranate u added here😂😂😂
have i ever watched attack on titan? no, was i very confused the entire video? yes, but was i amazed and did i watch the entire video? also yes
go watch it pls you won’t regret it
I am Japanese and this musical seems way better than the live action film.
Wait, I didn't realize that Attack On Titan had a musical, especially not one there actually looks genuinely good
Lovely stage plays of any anime:game in Japan made my day
An absolute banger 😂 ty for the is it was very good and made me laugh
ahh this is coming to NYC and you better believe I am going to see it!!!!
どんな作品だろうと、魂が込められていない作品なんてない。ありがとう、楽しませてもらったよ。
3:57 Did Connie just do Kakashi's One Thousand years of Death technique???
I thought the same thing! 😂
Every EMA moment makes me so sad after the finale :(
So no one will talk about how some of these songs sound absolutely amazing?
After finding some mostly-full Bluray rips of the songs, on the whole they _genuinely_ are. The orchestration, the vocal performances, how they translated the plot beats into song and where - you can tell that the team really cared.
i love ryo matsuda aaaaa
I can kind of see why he did this instead of Cesare, but I hope he does get to be in Cesare at some point. Cesare is wonderful.
They're all can act and moves, also good looking. Just cast them all into live movie version. No need actor who can't move stunts like them.
YOOO AOT STAGE PLAY IS FIREEEE
I don't know who thought this was a good idea, but they're a freaking genius!
Why am I bout to cry
This is the best thing that ever happened.
Has anyone found a way to watch the full show without purchasing the dvd??? right now it’s simply out of my price range but this video alone hooked me and I need to watch the full show !!
The subtitles was cracking me up 😂 I didn’t even know there was a musical
Omg Mikasa's solo is the most beautiful song I heard in a while???
Saw this yesterday and WEPT it was so good
What??? This looks so fun 😭
How are their voices so good on stage?? Wowza.
Wtf, that lady could sing better than me while being squashed by debris 😂
Mikasa's actress is so beautiful
I didn’t even know there was an apt musical, hello??? This is so cool???!
10:43 "Marco hitting the high notes" has killed me lol
I watched the play in New York. It was great. The mom‘s death might’ve even been more emotional than the show.
I love that they did justice to the ODMG props
Holy , all of the voices matches the characters!❤❤❤
Did Conny use that technique: "Secret Finger Jutsu: A Thousand Years of Death" on Eren? Kinda sneaky to add that in!! So funny indeed!!
Hange’s voice is perfect 💜
Why is it whenever time Japan makes a stage-play of any anime/game franchise, it’s super impressive!? ALWAYS??
and people wonder why i love musicals
3:58 Bro what are you doing Connie?💀
3:46 Hange being hange
it's giving everything Spiderman The Musical could've been omg this is bonkers
mister head spinner was slaying fr
6:15 BAHAHHAHA SASHA MAKE ME CHOKE ON NOTHING ITS SO FUNNY
OH GOD MAIHANE MIMI IS EREN'S MOM 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺 people should check her out, she was a top star in takarazuka before retired.
What in the mighty Hange she is even accurate with the voice And appearance. Perfect acting tho.
Wow
