HOW DID I MISS THIS?! | KING / Gawr Gura x Calliope Mori (Cover) REACTION

[@AdvanceWarrior]

I think after all the Calliope/Hololive you've been watching, Gawr Gura's "Reflect" is perfect for you to breakdown. The subtitles work and I believe you're the guy who can dig deep into the meaning of her song.

[@trollsmonster9077]

First off yogurt pie. Second off ever since she put out reflect I've been hoping for that full classic breakdown our mans always do other than that the song on boogie vox channel with calli would be tight as well

[@jakehellstrom2314]

Dont really see a point of a breakdown of the song. Its pretty much figured out the meaning of the song. Both by gura explaining it and people talking about it

[@kineyatore9798]

@@jakehellstrom2314 True, but where's the harm in pulling him futher down the rabbit hole lol.

[@inujoshua1359]

Facts. It not rly rap though. But it would be fun to see sfj reaction to it.

[@AnotherWun]

I would like Scru to watch Reflect as well, Would also like to see him react to Ina vs Holomyth even though its not a song it's an animation and not totally done yet, I feel like he would love the disrespect in it.

[@wren7195]

@@etypefan1 Hi, I know this is an older post but DANG you are so right! *shakes her head* I'm just starting to learn Japanese, and the cultural elements, "colloquialisms" that have to be "slanged" (...yeah let's pretend that's a verb) into something for an English audience... I mean, I UNDERSTAND why Funimation did the stuff it did in the late 90s early "AUGHTS" (sorry I love saying that), to try to broaden the appeal of a story and dialogue to a Western audience, despite how overall "inaccurate" it appears... The thing is, (I'm an English major, please, forgive me.) nearly all of Japanese conversational speech is akin to the concepts behind English imperative statements only being expanded to "everything." All of the very annoying elements of "well, the subject is obviously 'you,' because I'm in front of you telling YOU to 'put up the eraser,' so I don't need to say 'you'." In casual Japanese, you don't have things like "hello how are you?" you just have "hello." The "how are you" is understood because you're standing in front of them looking at them, it's obvious if they're well, sick, dying, or dead. And the fact that "anime protagonist" is screaming obscenities is immediately understood by all involved to mean uh, the Demon Lord over there, why would he be screaming at Tsuyomi like that? So where the English language is a hot mess of absurd dialectic interpretations of 1200 years smooshing AT. LEAST. 9 languages together (four of which ARE ANGLE-ISH!!!!!!) then I understand easily why people hate the language. It is, however, an extremely expressive, and nuanced, language because of having incorporated so many different languages and time periods into itself. Something that Japanese struggles with, because there aren't exactly fifty seven words that mean "love," ...instead, everything is very contextual to the moment, and to the people speaking. It makes chronicling, writing, and TRANSLATING a nightmare. A longwinded (again, English Major sorry) way of saying hell yes, I agree with you ten thousand percent. I've only picked up about four Hologra elements that I thought were a bit MORE than a stretch of the translation. That and translating "Pekoranglish" at all is a nightmare. And let's not even consider what Miko does. Best wishes etypefan, pleasure to meet you *smiles*

[@JTByrd386]

King, Eye, Envy Baby: they're part of the yogurt pie that make up the vocaloid staples you'll see a lot of the Hololive girls cover. Calliope really puts her own mark on these, adding to or interpreting the lyrics.

[@celestialdivineinstinct59]

You should react to Gawr Gura's original song called Reflect next! She's an incredible singer with angelic and unparalled vocals, and the lyrics in the song convey a deep meaning resonating with one's self-reflection and persona. I think you would really enjoy and appeal to it and would have a fun time breaking it down.

[@rarebearvt]

So now we need reaction to Gura's Reflect song! The CC works there and it's fire, just be sure to set it up to English and not Auto Generated

[@AnimeSquirrel]

You should definitely check Gura's original "Reflect" . Its her first original AND the subtitles work.

[@thecoffeebeans1]

Calliope tells some more of her story on CROWN by BOOGEY VOXX, translated its more like a conversation between two rappers Edit: the MV has worked in lyrics how Calli’s old songs used to be to follow along

[@farzanahizzati]

props to the guy who wrote the captions

[@MoralTruth]

Scru came through with this reaction! The killer queens killed this cover!!!! (yogurt pie) The CC saying “huh” and “foreign” killed me 💀

[@davidemmanuel9589]

Gawr and Mori: "🎵You are KING🎵" Scru: "fax" 🤣🤣🤣

[@sven1185]

LAM's Illustration was so good as well. I love their art so much!

[@LDEIB]

Mori added those rap parts to their cover of the song

[@Akabanenabaka]

A while back Calli collabed with hololive Indonesia Moona, Risu, and Reine on The Baddest cover. It was pretty amazing.

[@blueangelwing5660]

you also missed Crown by boogey vox x calliope mori

[@Nate.drill86]

Nothing new to add, but just to join the chorus: 1. Thank you for the coverage of Calli's music! I love hearing your takes on what she puts out given your background and experience. 2. Calli's Ussewa cover with Milky Queen is another great bop to react to, with functional English subtitles! 3. Gura's Reflect is an emotional breakdown of recognizing that, even as you've grown and matured, your earlier past self is what got you here to today. Even if you have moved beyond that version of yourself, it's important to recognize that they helped you get to where you are. Would love to hear your take!

[@nitsuji6705]

Mans you missed another banger… two actually: Crown by Boogey Voxx ft. Mori Calliope and Yona Yona Journey by Taku Inoue ft. Mori Calliope as well. EDIT: Shit how can I forget Calli singing HoloALT's OP: Dawn Blue

[@saynay302]

No subs on Crown, sadly, but I believe someone in the comments provided english translations. Worth a read, Fra's lines in it are real good. Yona Yona is a fun song, but Taku Inoue doesn't let reaction videos slide, sadly.

[@finalfuntasy]

Don't forget her cover of Usseewa with Milky Queen, don't remember him reacting to that one.

[@WithADanceNumber]

Crown has that victory/successe beat to it that i just love.

[@nitsuji6705]

[@vivianrexcroftch2999]

Think you could react to Gawr Gura's Reflect? I think you'd like it, and the Closed captions does work there, lol. I'll even give you a Yogurt Pie.

[@heathjake25]

I’ll add homemade pizza to that.

[@mitch-zf5cz]

something something yogurt pie. really enjoying these reaction vids man

[@AckeeDJ]

The japanese tracks with no closed captions do the tracks no favor. Hearing Calli and Guras cover of King without knowing the others is like eating a yoghurt pie with no seasoning. The added rap and playfulness set their version on a whole new level compared to most of the many many other covers that didnt take many liberties.

[@Inariann]

I know this reply is super late but this comment is everything. They both added so much to the original, I only listen to the original when I play WACCA, otherwise, this is my go to version.

[@en9218]

[@KorEl22]

You gotta do Crown by Calli and Bogey Voxx! Love your reactions man! Also yogurt pie lmao

[@Bobbybill123]

Second this, one of my favourite songs that has Calli on it

[@effortlessfury]

This, actually. 100%. Great song, it's the other half of their collab; you (Scru) have already listened to one half (Graveyard Shift). It's less character-focused and more reality-focused.

[@FieryDonuthole]

The pinned comment has lyrics you can translate too!

Yess, hopefully he sees this because that song is 🔥 🔥

You need to hear King cover with an headphones for the best experiences

[@Ravenleaf182]

Ah crud...I was worried about this. This cover IS absolutely amazing...but it shines brightest when you've seen or at least know about the other covers and the original. Like you have to see at least a few of the others to appreciate just how unique this particular version is

[@nickmilo932]

I love this one even tho my personal favorite is still Futakuchi Mana.

[@KirbySaysBweo]

@@nickmilo932 Ayy another fan of the Imp Queen! Jokes aside, I agree with this, Futakuchi Mana and Calli have the two most unique covers of King by far in my opinion and I love their versions of it for that reason, Mana's just a little bit more for me

[@nickmilo932]

@@KirbySaysBweo that break down be getting my spine fked up every time xD

[@1nn3r3V1L]

the rap section she wrote herself she said that she felt she could fill in the space with a quick rap making it thier own in between the lines since origionally it was just instimentals

[@tachyonrailgun]

I appreciate you reacting to this stuff, but boy the CC sort of hurts. I do recommend Calliope’s Ussewa cover. It goes in, and has working CC so you’ll have something read into. Also Gura has a really good original called Reflect which also has nice closed captions.

[@angeloflgt]

It's not exactly your normal type of music but I would be curious to see your reaction to gura's song 'reflect' Also yogurt pie?

[@NunyaBiznessss]

God I wish the closed captions worked so we could get our quality SFJ breakdown

[@NunyaBiznessss]

Also yogurt pie

[@ImmortalInflames]

"King" has almost become a right of passage for V-tubers to cover. There are so many covers out there, but each with their own way of doing it! So it was cool to see Calli do some more singing since as she has said herself that she's a rapper not a singer, not confident in her singing. I love when Calli put a bit of anger in her raps, but King (with Gura) this is a special little treat you can't help but enjoy! ^^ SFJ - Thank mans, you always break it down for the Deadbeats!!

[@KishyTheFishy52]

You really should react to other Hololive EN Song covers even though you mostly focus on rap. But I have to recommend Gura's REFLECT if you are going to react to it you should Captions because of the meaning

[@csuperc]

Like someone else already pointed out, you kinda have to listen to some of the other covers and the original to really get a feel for how unique this particular cover is. Especially with how Calli added those rap portions to the song and made it work perfectly It kinda reminds me of how a previous Hololive member covered the song “Echo” and also added a little bit of her own lyrics in it. If anyone wants to listen to it, you might be able to find it by searching something along the lines of “Hololive civia echo cover”.

[@Spectre_Skater]

Seeing a new Scru Face Jean video about some of my favorite Hololive girls is as good as a fresh yogurt pie. Always love watching your enthusiasm for the music and your lyrical breakdowns (even if you didn't quite get to do that too much in this one lol) I'm also gonna echo everyone else here in the comments with hoping you check out Gawr Gura's first original "Reflect" and Calli and Boogey Voxx's "Crown". Crown especially because the song is just a wonderful celebration of Calli and BV in how far they've come with their music, it does my heart good every time I listen to it. Love the content, man!

[@sshanne]

You should also react to Calli's Usseewa

[@Fanimati0n]

And Milky Queen. Also, Usseewa was more of a straightforward cover iirc

[@orbitanddecay4380]

You can find the lyrics for the JP part of King on most other versions of it.

Pls react to 119 remix where there are 51 K-rappers in a 20 minute rap! It is by: GRAY (feat: Various Artists) TIP: 119 is a Korean version for 911

[@mikifune_vtuber]

Calli, I THINK, was the first one to re invent the KING cover to include a rap verse which we heard in the intro

[@KishyTheFishy52]

Actually it was Gura who decided let's make it different and to add the Rap

I want to watch him react to Yaosobi's Yoru Ni Kakeru, and watch his mind melt in real time. Warning, this song is quite heavy, don't pay attention to its lyrics unless y'all are in the right head space.

[@cameronchrobocinski2795]

I'm glad us Shrimps and Deadbeats were able to hit that 3k goal in less than a week! A little tidbit about this song: it's basically a rite of passage for vtubers to cover it. Almost every talent in Hololive has and I'd recommend listening to Ayunda Risu's cover, which is my favorite. Risu is known for having an incredible vocal range and it really shows in the key change of this song.

[@nb_diety2541]

If you want to know the lyrics, the original video for the song they are covering actually does have lyrics in the captions.

[@WoeUponThee]

Btw you can click the settings button on the bottom of the video to check if the captions are auto generated or not.

[@skuld8985]

FYI the parts Calli is rapping in english is normally just music playing, but she made lyrics to sing during it. And king is a song that has had hundreds upon hundreds of people covering it, and Calli and Gura personalized it so much ^_^

[@RazorRX750]

The rap part at the start (and the middle) isn't part of the original song, Calliope Mori added that for their cover version.

This was an epic break down of the close captions.

[@Bobbybill123]

Scru vs YT auto captions is my favourite arc

[@ProjectEchoshadow]

I think it would help to see anyone else’s cover of this song to compare since they added so much to this version to make it their own. Also closed caption exists on the Japanese hololive members’ covers.

[@wraith3685]

Scru mad at the close captions is the funniest shit for me and i dont know why 😂😂😂

[@Hyenadont]

Calli's english version of Envy Baby is straight fire, even if it's not a video give it a listen!

[@nathanperquin9910]

there is a good chance that the reason there is no close caption is due to licensing issues and some places being iffy about unofficial translations being posted

[@Wixvhen]

'I think you've already opened up with so much content'. He says, talking about the part they added to the song. There was no English in the original, and they didn't translate anything, that was all added.

[@phantomthunder203]

Theres another cover duet Calli did that has actual English subtitles

[@codenameenshrimp]

So note about the song, as you said this is a cover of the song King, and in step with everyone most everyone else who does the cover they used all the original lyrics in the same place the original song did ... they did however take the liberty to add in the two rap sections where in the original there was just instrumental ... not to downplay Cali or Gura of course, they did an AMAZING job with this, just figured if you/anyone wanted to spend the time to actually digest what was said you can hone in on those parts as the rest is just copy and paste with style

Scru's reaction vids are really great. They remind me of the olden days when I would watch HoloLive while chowing down on some Yoghurt Pie.

[@SparkJavelin]

when it comes to popular covers like Kanaria's KING, if it looks like the CC ain't gonna give you a translation, it's always an option to type into google (maybe after the video is over to break down your thoughts on lyrics) "Kanaria KING english lyrics". also, Calli's rap portion isn't gonna show up in them lyrics since that bit was all her.

[@alial6658]
