「 ES!! 」Acanthe - Valkyrie [KAN/ROM/ENG]

[@softkermit791]

OH! Sorry for the sudden note but in the last part, is not rlly in third person but in second person bcs since the beginning their lines address each other as Mika is given “life” after the first いつか心吹き込む口付けてと inside the story is mentioned this song is not sung towards an audience but tells a story about an artist and his beloved (that also unconsciously reflects what happens between them during this event)

[@lucidstarsES]

Hey, can you put the time stamp...?? Because I think I didn't use the third person things...

[@softkermit791]

@Sumire iro yes! That part

[@lucidstarsES]

@Sumire iro Owh shoot.. that part, thank you for your information... (It's still a little bit hard for me to translate some song too) but thank you once again :)

[@allendaviesmacawile9798]

May I know what happen during these event? ..... I just know enstars with their song and not their story...... And unfortunately the translated version of the story has been taken down by the game.....

[@allendaviesmacawile9798]

@Sumire iro that is soooo beautiful even though it is just a suuuuupert TLDR Version of the story T_T

Love was invented after this song

valkyrie invented homosexuality and love ❤️❤️❤️

after that comes heartbreak

So true

3:13 "But someday, ill have arms to hold you" Shu, during Acanthe story: "Kagehira does not throw anything anyway. Even if it falls from his arms over and over, even if those very arms of his are torn off, he'll pick it up and love it. That's the kind of human he is."

really love how they did this event, from the time frame of the event being in between winter - spring. the implication from majority of the flowers symbolizes reborn, nobility, hope, pride, everlasting and etc mghfbfmsmsjfmd i never did an event card so fast under 2 day

[@medi759]

I've been listening to this for the past 3 hrs this is valkyrie's best song if you disagree you're just wrong

Ive been wondering between this and sei shonen yuugi actually

[@jellaldragneel5983]

@Himemiya Tori yea indeed, I really like sei shonen yuugi, truly wonderful, I cant decide for the new valkyrie, all of the songs enticing me

[@sicksimon]

nah imo miwaku geki is their best song (this being the second best), shit got me literally fall in love the first time i heard it

[@bagle24601]

I'd agree but tbh I can't rank valkyrie songs bc they're all works of art

AN ENTIRE 5 MINUTE SONG???? SLAY MIKA AND SHU! (Thank you too Lucidstars!)

[@Miimika]

IM SO SORRY I CANT SHUT UP ABOUT THIS SONG ASDHJSKA i may be reading to deep into this BUT, do yall think at 2:37 "this encounter that moves three times" it refers to the 3 times they met? the first one when they were kids, second at yumenosaki, and third during the event when Mika got all weird? im sorry im going absolutely insane with this song SAJSDHA

Wait, when Mika got all weird? What does that mean 🥺

VALKYRIE INSTRUMENTALS HOLY SHIT 3:28 GHIS IS OTHERWORLDLY IM LOSING MY MIND THIS SONG IS SO UNFATHOMABLY BEAUTIFUL I CANT EVEN DESCRIBE IN WORDS THE EMOTIONS IT MAKES ME FEEL

[@CrunchyBananaBread]

Valkyrie has the best instrumentals and no, you cannot disagree

[@sheilascholl6356]

at 4:30 my soul has never left my body faster i am sobbing 😭

[@PandikawDraws]

I love how the instrumental starts as if there's an internal conflict and the emotions are in chaos, but at the end, the music brings a sense of clarity and peace, like saying "Ah yes, this is what I've been trying to find/understand". I dunno how to explain it properly sorry. Oh yes! And when they sing "ataeyou haru o/kurikaesu ai o" 4:38, it feels like a warm and reassuring hug.

[@au.6328]

im not even valkP but when the song came near the end my tears cant stop falling down... the way they raise their voice and the song goes higher TT

[@brazheni]

я не можу передати словами почуття свої про те, як я люблю цю пісню, як я люблю валькірій, як я люблю міку й шу та їх акторів озвучування. вокал, музика, сенс, мв - це все просто неймовірно навіть окремо, що казати про разом. я готовий прослуховувати їхню творчість нескінчену кількість разів, але саме ця пісня мене торкнула краще інших. ріст валькірій як гурта чудово описаний і показаний тут. вони рятуються з клітки "стара валькірія" і становляться чимось більше, більше ніж просто лялька та її власник і я просто закоханий у це, ніби пашні квіти цвітом гострим в моїх грудях цвітуть, серце тягне пролити сльозу, а емоції ось-ось вибухнуть у феєрверк різнокольоровий у котрому збереться в один букет почуття меланхолічні, грайливі і м'які, що подарують мені ще одні хвилину, як дозу, сієї насолоди. можливо, навіть усіх словників світу не вистачить для передання емоцій.

[@shiroiaki12]

[@akira_ariga]

This song, I swear The final lyrics make me so sad but then the bass hits and it gets me hype I especially loved the verb "suegareru" they used, to keep with the plant theme, aka to wither and die. Not to mention the pronunciation they went with, as opposed to some of the more common ways to say this verb. It's just so ....shu XD
