I played Owari no Sekai Kara for my High School Talent show (Animenz arr.)

[@FonziMGM]

I'm glad to see that you're doing better, at least that's what it looks like. Playing an Animenz arrangement is no easy feat alone for a video, but in front of an audience on top of that? Nothing but respect for you man.

[@kenfchen]

Fonzi M - Melodies on Piano thanks a lot Fonzi

[@AnassPad]

yeah they are really hard but fun and beatiful

[@ErikCPianoman]

Great live performance. I think you got across what you wanted to the audience. Very well deserved applause at the end.

[@kenfchen]

Piano Man yeah I was happy; they said they all felt it

[@justsimplyfaith]

Roaring applause for weeb piano >:D Amazing performance and energy. I swear the happy end is one of the best things to have come out of Animenz

[@kenfchen]

Same here; that ending is singlehandedly my favorite ending written for piano.

[@smithrooks]

Wow... I can feel the heart and soul you put into this. Not perfect technically, but as you said, it was the emotions that were important, and those were conveyed magnificently. You've earned yourself a new sub, and I'm off to check out your recording of this now!

[@YehPianoCovers]

Ahhhh that ending still gives me chills. Thanks for continuing to be a great inspiration! Nice work

[@kenfchen]

Yeh-Kun - Animu Ni Pianu thanks a lot :)

[@hannahw.315]

Congrats on 1st! I'm excited to see you're back. :) Super cool performance- I had an adrenaline rush watching you ahaha.

[@kenfchen]

Hannah W. thanks I had a lot of adrenaline while playing this too >_>

[@LouisR56]

I'm glad to see you back man! Your performance was very good, I would be totally unable to play this piece at the moment lol (one day I hope) We can clearly feel the emotions coming from your playing, it's very powerful! Great job man, one of my favourite Animenz's arrangement, you did great! Your speech was awesome too, you look so cool!

[@kenfchen]

Thanks a lot :)

[@kenfchen]

EDIT: I recorded this; link here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/m5OnYmyfi62Xh7M Please read the description :) Also really nervous and dystonia was being a pain during the performance, my muscles were dying T_T Please enjoy ^_^ OH YES; one thing; I did change the ending a bit, because I wanted it to resolve so well and concrete that there wouldn't be any question about the happy ending at the end. LAST THING: gonna get this recorded properly soon. So look forward to that.

[@alocalweeb7555]

who's filming

[@kenfchen]

The people running the talent show filmed this.

[@alocalweeb7555]

makes sense

[@joemie5541]

Animesic - Anime Covers what muscles? jkjk😂😂😂 good job^-^

[@kenfchen]

OMG I have Dystonia; we've been over this.

[@aviand]

OMG. You're back! :3

[@kenfchen]

and I'm here to stay :)

[@LizerdWizard]

Ah man, I remember I tried learning this arrangement a few years ago... got about to page three I think and then got rekt. Great playing dude, and you have really good stage presence when you're speaking!

[@kenfchen]

Thanks :) Will you be at OtakuFest this year? I'm probably going to play again this year haha

[@LizerdWizard]

I was just wondering about going actually. If you'll be playing again, I think I'd want to go at least for that haha; though seriously, first year of college is pretty tough so hopefully I wont be swamped next month (it's like the 14 or something?).

[@ICeyCeR3Al]

owari no sekai kara is surprisingly one of the easier pieces i have learnt from animenz. I find NGNL, AoT, Blumenkranz and Aliez all more difficult to play XD. My crazy friend thinks swordland is animenz's easiest piece and owari no sekai kara is way harder LOL.

[@LouisR56]

Hi im Ish Wow dude what you says really interest me! O_O I was wondering how hard this arrangement is! I'm learning Brave Shine currently which isn't easy at all imo, and I tried to play Aliez a few months ago, which wasn't that hard except the rhythmic patterns and hands independance. Why do you think Owari no Sekai Kara isn't that difficult? It looks really difficult, especially the ending, so I'm curious :3

[@ICeyCeR3Al]

+louistik Maybe its because of pieces i played before owari. I am familiar with chopin and tend to find his progressions and patterns easier to catch. That ending part was like 70% Chopin and 30% animenz lol. However, i literally know nothing of composers like Liszt, who i think uses 3 hand techniques similar to that of Aliez/Blumenkranz. My thumb on my right and left hand feel so awkward reaching out for that B note in Aliez. Those other pieces aren't necessarily harder to learn. Its just that, they are FAST. Especially NGNL, Unravel and swordland T.T At least for me. Man when animenz graduates and is done with school, he is going to arrange 10x more difficult transcriptions that will probably make unravel seem kawaii. Better practice a lot now or be sorry later hehe.

[@iSonnyT]

Congrats on first place! That sure was an amazing performance, kudos to you for tackling a full Animenz arrangement! Would be cool if they allowed the use of a projector so you can display the lyrics or visuals of the music :P

[@kenfchen]

Pianist Iconic the projector would have made it inconvenient; but yeah, I'm happy with the turnout

[@Sagashiiii]

Yayy a long awaited upload! That's was so frickin good! Way better than anything I can do lol. I hope you keep uploading ^^

[@kenfchen]

Pi Chan - Anime/Jpop on Piano yeah; I have a lot of stuff planned. Thanks for the support :)

[@liam3779]

Extremely emotional performance of this piece, I congratulate you on this success!

[@kenfchen]

Thanks a lot :)

[@DareruPiano]

The moment Senpai has returned with a live performance and you have to shed a tear :')

[@kenfchen]

Dareru - Anime Piano ahaha thanks

[@asunapiano7255]

Quite beautiful...I felt it~ well done for playing ONSK in front of an audience!! and closing the piano lid had a nice, final touch to it.

[@asunapiano7255]

( this made me subscribe = =

[@SantiagoAPiano]

OMG I was nervous watching this XD I can´t imagine yours! GREAT job man

[@kenfchen]

SantiagoAPiano haha gracias

[@orangewaffle1103]

Nice job with describing the story and playing this really challenging piece! Glad to see you upload after a while.

[@kenfchen]

OrangeWaffle thanks; I'm happy I got to upload

[@AnimePianoAngel]

Very emotional performance! good job! :D

[@kenfchen]

Thanks Baby Angel

[@rusti8582]

WONDERFUL

[@BrodieHPianist]

I know how nerve racking performances can be man, you did fucking amazing!!!

[@kenfchen]

Zugzwang Anime Piano ikr my muscles almost went out a few times; Thanks though hahaha

[@SoDhahri]

Great performance, thank you for this live

[@Nuppettepiano]

I recently took some interest in learning this piece and wanted to see if other pianists have performed the arrangement. Needless to say, your performance was very inspiring and I really enjoyed it. Thanks for sharing!

[@ashmazyn]

OMG I loved your intro speech aha, pretty funny

[@ChronicalV]

waaah i only saw this now.... why youtube no give me notification ;-; welp glad to have you back and hope you'll get better with your emotional state. I'm just starting music as a chosen elective in high school, so my musical journey is just beginning you could say. I hope your journey will go well! (also you give the kind of speech at the beginning of a performance that I always wanted to give, but never had the courage to. Performing in front of the school is already hard enough for me)

[@StrayWolfPiano]

Thank you for playing this great song on my birthday! It's so inspiring to see that Animenz's arrangements aren't unplayable after all! And you have put so much passion into this! I really think you deserve even more subscribers, as this song is just insane, but you have mastered it quite well :) Also, you really well expressed the different moods of this song, starting from the more silent moments, and really building up tension in the more dramatic chorus! Great job, I'm just like the audience right now, screaming and applauding inside of me ;)

[@kenfchen]

M1chael0311 thanks; happy birthday

[@StrayWolfPiano]

Thank you :) Actually, it was yesterday ;) It's only today that I got to listen to this properly with headphones, but I just noticed that it was uploaded yesterday already (EST+6) :3

[@stardustnation2480]

I'm so glad I got to see you live :)

[@kenfchen]

lolol thanks for the audience support at the end; I was very happy

[@denisxux1147]

[@kenfchen]

Alma Romero thanks~

[@AnimelodyPiano]

good job man! aha i also know the nervousness of playing live.... it rly sucks. anyways, although there were a few mistakes, it was quite well played, i could feel the emotions :D wow you actually get a grand piano to play on at your school talent show.... my highschool talent show was with like a 20 year old beaten up upright piano xD hope you are feeling better now, i also have moments of feeling down/depression, just gotta look at the positive side of everything. also, a good live performance piece i recommend to learn is animenz' my dearest arrangement (although it is quite difficult to learn)

[@kenfchen]

Fengoku thanks; I should be pretty okay

[@TeamProtec01theAverageGuy]

[@HandsomeTeachings]

[@snooble2]

daniel it u

[@Scwhardz]

❤❤❤

[@jacoblin4885]

Well done! Just wondering, did you use the music sheet from Animenz??

[@kenfchen]

Yeah; I said it during the speech thing and in the description

[@jacoblin4885]

sorry i wasn't paying attention. But still wonderful work

[@benlin2912]

Omg wow

[@NopuOren]

Wow wow xD

[@kenfchen]

NOPU Piano thanks DADDY

[@LennLenn]

I love this song and I'm currently working on it too :D Was it hard for you to learn and how long did it take ? And maybe it's because you were nervous but be careful with the speed and hit clear notes, if you cant play one passage in an animenz piece just make it a little more easy until you can play it clean. But if you do that, use the same notes as in the original arrangement just in other formations. Your fans really cried lol

[@kenfchen]

Lenn[Anime-Piano] it's not really a hard song to learn; for me it was a month of light practice and a few days of putting an hour a day into this and I was good. Of course it's going to vary depending on experience

[@AidenMontgomerydoesstuff]

I feel so bad for whoever had to follow that....

[@kenfchen]

Aiden Montgomery what's that supposed to mean

[@AidenMontgomerydoesstuff]

You did amazing! Side note: I forgot what I commented at first and when I read the notification my first thought was "Uh oh"

[@matthewzhou4504]

Ayyyyyyy

[@pianimon-pianocovers8885]

I really don't get why you're hating yourself for that performance. I think it was awesome especially if you consider that it was a live performance. You really nailed it \(☆_☆)/

[@kenfchen]

For a normal performance it's okay, but for it needs some work for my (and my friend who was pretty hard on me after this performance) own expectations

[@yukimisakura3325]

Is it a anime if it is I trying to look for it

[@kenfchen]

There's no anime; it's a song by Jun Maeda You should be able to find quite a bit of information about it if you look up this song

[@Nole2701]

is the last page sponsored by *R E D B U L L* ?

[@Windows-st3ti]

wow you're cool

[@kenfchen]

Windows 10 thanks I think so too

[@DownSins]

Some stringendo, but so good

[@Nole2701]

2:41 that background character kick was really sloppy and poorly executed.

[@zephelia1299]

Do Yuri on Ice please XD

[@nyanomusic]

[@kenfchen]

InnocentOracle love you lots

[@TKAnimeonPiano]

XD

[@kenfchen]

TK - Anime on Piano omg TK

[@azurememory]

This song is just so wanly to play so I like stopped practicing it. 😂😂😂 The note misses Dang, 8 seconds into the song and there was already a big one. Nah jkjk You did well. 🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹 Omg so many mistakes.😅

[@kenfchen]

Goooosh >:((( I can't tell if you're messing with me or not hmph >:( Fine thanks

[@FonziMGM]

Look at this banter ; ))

[@kenfchen]

All of you guys are Baka 😤😤😤

[@azurememory]

+Animesic - Anime Covers ;( I love your internet persona. Your messages are so fun to read

[@lejayxox6828]

Wow you had short hair back then

[@PureReluctance]

8 wrong notes

[@kenfchen]

Also in the new counter lol and?

[@PureReluctance]

Animesic - Anime Covers wasn't saying it as a bad thing. Sorry for the misunderstanding.

[@kenfchen]

Well mistakes are irrelevant for the most part. Most people would get annoyed at others for calling out “wrong notes” since it’s a pretty petty thing to point out

[@WingSun]

Heyo this performance was amazing ! I tried Nagi no Asukara last song from the medley (way easier) and can’t play properly haha ! Hope you’re going forward nowadays ^^
