I was eagerly waiting for this one! This ost instantly caught my attention at the start of the movie; it coupled with the animation in that one sequence where yuta joins the school was just perfection. So I was secretly happy that you postponed sangatsu for this, and oh boy, you did it justice. I love that moment of silence at 0:20 where the last note lingers around and from there how you delicately build up the track. Then as you said, after that point it's just bombastic and epic--amazing payoff to the build up. I think this has become my 3rd favorite of your covers right behind the sangatsu medley and ahead of sayonara bystander, which is saying a lot. Keep it up, looking forward to the next sangatsu medley! Also, I haven't seen 86, but I'll be sure to listen to animenz's "Avid".

Thanks for the shoutout lol

Awesome playing, Brandon! One of the highlights was definitely the big pause from 0:20-0:35 - it takes real patience and courage to let the sound ring for so long, and acknowledge the silence, as if to give the music a change to breathe and prepare for the rest of the song. Great build-up and pacing, and exciting ending! And as always, a masterpiece of a description!

I sensed big pp energy and smell during the performance!

Very calming tune

This piano arrangement is beautiful. The use of the pedal is putting me in a trance.

Even though I haven't watched the movie or listened to the song, you beautifully explained description guided my feelings as I listened. Your distinct playing with Hayaya's cleanup sounds really good! Makes me feel I'm listening to live playing in a concert hall.

yoooooo

Wow that was well-done! I'm obsessed with how you pedal and let the notes linger to create a sense of atmosphere

Wow that was great bro

Super cool, my friend!Emotional and powerful rendition. I like it. Thanks for sharing it.

Really good performance!

A very powerful performance. I love all of the elements you added in this arrangement. It’s very balanced. Great playing and I can’t wait to hear your playing with better recording equipment. Also the ending is (both the edit and the arrangement)

My IQ went up a few points just by reading the description :florshed:
