I cried for the first time in a very long time. I thought I had it all a few years back, lost my job, and as much as I wanted to bounce back, I kept getting turned down or ignored. Then the world as we know it regressed into isolation. Staying happy isn't easy when you can't find the courage to keep yourself pushing forward. Watching you and all these other girls is really uplifting, and this song made something finally crack and let out emotions I've been holding back. I needed it. You might not read this amidst the sea of comments, but I don't mind. Thank you, Mumei.

I like how she had a whole rune theme going on. And that they specifically picked the ones that correlate with her. Her hair clip is Raidho, which stands for "A change, a time of respite, vacation, transition, road, travel" On her gloves is othila, "Inheritance, legacy, home, family, property, savings, house" Berkano and algiz also make an appearance, algiz is associated with: "The patronage, protection, care, security, god's blessing, filter" As for Berkano: "Growth, new life, fertility, fertile grounds for the start of new ventures, rebirth from a time of darkness, woman, Earth, healing" I just find that cool.

I just love the lyrics of this song so much. Doing something unfamiliar, going out of your comfort zone, bursting your own bubble just to experience what it really feels like to be alive, and not just to exist for the sake of existing, but really live life. After I graduate from college, I felt lost. I do not know what to do with my life anymore. And that's the reason why I like this song, because basically, it encourages us to move forward no matter how hard and uncertain the world and the future might be. "I might end up dirty and disheveled but I don't want to grow old doing nothing" perfectly summed up what I'm feeling all these years. I'm doing small steps about my stagnation, and I hope that whoever feel the same way as me, you find the courage to take that one small step for a brand new start.

"*Ages ago, like pages of storybooks; flip; rewrite; day and night - endless monotony.*" That is, hands down, my favourite verse in the entire song after all this time for the sheer amount of meaning that you can derive from it. Stories are told over the ages, in the from of books, with pages being flipped over, but also rewritten - in one of two immediate ways, either as they are told down to newer and newer generations in the form of: Daytime, school lessons, or Nighttime, bedtime stories. Both being scribed with new meaning, as concepts evolve and change with the endless and monotonous passage of time prompting us to find solace in remembering these stories told and retold over the ages.

The buildup and chorus are distinctly different, it’s like there’s two songs in one. I like it when people go out of the norm to explore and experiment. This is just the beginning! To more original songs in the future! Also, her voice is different when she’s play singing and try hard singing, can’t forget about her husky nervous singing too. Excited to hear more from you Mumei!

[@ignis488]

I agree the song is great but it doesn't feel like 2 songs in 1 for me. If you want to see some more songs that are "really out of their way", check out "drift - happy chaos's theme" and the Guilty Gear franchise OST

[@STN4D]

There's some songs that go beyond. Check out SB19's "What" because it literally is like 4 songs. Then there's also the [Full Flavor] genre and Yunomi's signature surprise drops.

[@iamthinking2252_]

It’s like the tempo change, it slows down and becomes more even at the chorus? The transition between both parts becomes off kilter, or at least syncopated?

初めてコメントします。曲を聴いたらコメントせずにはいられませんでした。 昨年11月辺りからムメイちゃんの事を知り日本からいつも見ています。この曲を聴いた時から、完成されるを待っていてこの日を楽しみにしていました。 ムメイちゃんの歌声が好きだし森カリオペが作詞に関わっていてムメイちゃん、カリオペらしいとてもいい作品だと思いました。聴くにつれ2番のサビに入り涙してしまいました。 ホロライブ、あずーるさん、作品に関わった全ての人、ムメイちゃん。ありがとう。感動しました。 英語でなくてすいません。ムメイちゃんが日本語覚えようとしてくれてるのうれしいし、自分も少しずつ英語覚えたいと思いました。 A New Start 最高！Thank you Mumei !

[@TheRyukan]

This song is truly heavenly.... The first rhyme with bard and celtic style felt like how us human build our civilization from scratch with blood, tears, sweat and a lot lot of time. Then come the second rhyme with that happy vibe. Yes, indeed we human stray from time to time like dark ages, world war but we still persist, civilization still persist. That cheerful tone saying as long as we still stay as we are felt like pushing us to try new things and even if we stray a little bit that's fine that's just how human is. Even if we do stray too far and stumbled so hard that we hurt ourself, we can relax for a bit an do a new start on a different path. So long as humanity still exist, civilization will never perish. Btw this shroom taste superb, thanks for reading~

This feels like the op of a fantasy anime that, rather than being focused on the action, it would focus on the adventure and feelings associated with it, as well as the little things like the bond between the adventuring party and their time together. It feels like an anime that would be fluffy and cute, but at times would get emotional and even bittersweet. The best thing I could imagine is K-On, but as a fantasy anime about adventure rather than high school girls in a band. It feels like the op of an anime that would hit me right in the feels, but not because it’s gritty and dark, but because it’s practically the opposite. It’s beautiful.

My idea of an anime of Mumei is traveling around the world while meeting her future partners from time to time, then finale of season 1 being Bae arriving to form council as Kronii and Sana fight while she crying on Fauna cuz she sick thanks to her. Then a scene of her being cute, but rather sad, if you notice she forgot all the pain, laughs and experiences she went through..... again.
