Rapper Reacts to EVE for THE FIRST TIME (Dramaturgy, As You Like It, How To Eat Life)

[@ooo0eve0ooo]

First of all, thank you very much for watching the music videos for the three songs. I've been a fan of Nicholas for a long time, so I'm glad to see your reaction. I look forward to seeing other MV responses when the opportunity arises.

[@NicholasLightTV]

NO WAY!! This comment made my day. I’m so honored. Can’t wait to see what else you create and you have a fan forever in me !

[@dr8575]

Huhh ayo wtf

[@k.s.m.5389]

Fun fact: Eve is an utaite. Utaite are japanese singers who usually starts their career as a singer by singing cover songs.. then as time goes, becomes so talented that they can create their own songs by composing, arranging, writing the lyrics for the songs and singing those songs. They dont usually show their face. Even if they show their face, it is not leaked online...so u r not becoming a fan for their appearance but rather for their talent.

[@YaseiSeibutsu]

basically OG Vtubers

[@Cup_Of_Cappuchino]

So the name Uta is actually based from this, this is actually rlly cool because Uta from one piece is a popstar so thats a cool reference to utaite!

[@ahmedzeeshan1272]

Same as Ado, who started singing hatsune miku songs

[@aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaiaaaaaaaaa]

Not really. Its not a reference. Uta just means song. And the word utaite probably comes from the word song__ something ​@@Cup_Of_Cappuchino

[@Cup_Of_Cappuchino]

Funfact: How to eat life was single-handedly animated by this one person called Mariyasu. yes, did the whole thing. Mariyasu also directed the animation of Fight Song that eve has on his channel And mariyasu also has made a lot of animations for other people on youtube as well. along with having a personal animation channel

[@zaytaz9331]

I am 1000% sure Mariyasu is being held at gun point by Eve or else such beautiful ELEGANCE IS IMPOSSIBLE

[@robraf12]

Mafumafu as a creator in itself is worth checking out, his voice is outlandish, the notes he can hit and the way he can play around with his voice is beyond human. As I mentioned in a different comment highly recommend his cover of „Hated by Life itself“ its so popular that the cover is more known than the original. Make sure to READ subtitles for this one! Sore wo Ai to Yobu Dake would be another song by mafumafu I would check out. Mafumafu is male btw. as many ppl confuse him to be a woman because of his voice.

[@user-moroheiya]

I have come to understand your English little by little. Because you are expressive. I enjoy watching your videos and listening to English words while watching your facial expressions. Eve's songs are so amazing! I'm glad you seem to be enjoying it

[@F4vor07]

Kenshi Yonezu is one of the most famous singer in J pop history and every single song that he makes is a masterpiece. (He is the one who made kickback,piece sign and I recommend you lemon,kanden,loser,flamingo)

[@chandlerplays1685]

I vouch for Lemon

[@PowerSpirit50]

He also used to go by Hachi, one of the most infuencial vocaloid producers.

Please check out YOASOBI all of their songs are wonderful! All of their songs are made off of stories some of their songs I’d recommend are Racing into the night First take (you listened to it the studio version on one of your streams) RGB, Comet, If I could draw life, and Gunjo (it also has a first take version) Tracing that dream, And Encore. They don’t have very many songs out so far so maybe wait until you start streaming again and then do a stream where you listen to all of their music.

YIPPEEEE I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR SO LONG!! Thank you so much for reacting to Eve I'm so obsessed with his music and it makes me to happy that you're reacting to his stuff💕💕

[@AbsolNOVA]

In "How to Eat Life" the main character is the same one who is featured in his other song "FightSong". I love the linear plot of his music videos and how the characters in one could interact/appear in other MV's. Super unique and having an extraordinary voice and music ability just completely balances all and makes him one of the best artists/musicians in the business. Love you Eve!! ♥

[@crispymintt]

he’s also in his manga (can’t remember the name)

[@AbsolNOVA]

@@crispymintt Kara no Kioku

[@smithy3950]

Finally, so glad you’re finally reacting to his music! Eve also has his own manga that might become an anime one day, the manga is Kara No Kioku. Edit: if you do another eve reaction please include, Yamiyo, LEO, Last dance, Ao no Waltz, Aisai, and Promise. All of these are some of his best songs!

[@kkkggg19]

Ao no Waltz is great. He should also react to the movie

There are so many great songs! Outsider, last dance as well as some covers! Ame to Petra is one of my favorite

[@kkkggg19]

Wait, how has no-one mentioned Anoko secret?

[@creativename8784]

Eve is one of my favorite artists, and was actually my top artist for 2022 (according to spotify). I absolutely adore his music, and it makes me happy to see Nick enjoying his music as much as i do ❤️

[@poomtnp1253]

Eve is such a goat. Funny bits that the vocalist is preferred anonymous. I recommend you check their live performance. You wont regret!

[@fanto860]

Every song of eve is amazing with a masterpiece of a music video, the message is always deep and the music videos reflect that while being made by some of the most talented animators out there

[@ablekwok9130]

I listen How To Eat Life twice every day. I cried the first time I hear this song

[@floatytrouty]

Eve's song is deceptively upbeat but goddamn when you understand the meaning you got punched in the gut with relatability

[@regret.932]

The first song that introduced me to Eve was Leo. It was a new and out of world experience for me. I was so happy when he did Jujutsu kaisen opening and Chainsaw man ending 12. He's an amazing artist.

[@felipedias5959]

This video was all i needed today. Thank you Nick. Greetings from Brazil

[@chopperdlaw8590]

Thank you for FINALLY reacting to this Amazing Artist dude. He's so awesome

[@chopperdlaw8590]

Wish you reacted to Last Dance as well tho. How To Eat Life, Dramaturgy, and Last Dance are my Favorite 3 tbh

[@christienoliveira362]

DRAMATURGY IS LIKE ONE OF MY FAVORITE SONGS I LEGIT VERBALY REACTED WHEN I SAW "Nicholas light tv dramatu-" AND IMMEDIATELY CLICKED IM SOOOO EXITED

[@protrash6791]

Fun fact: How to Eat Life is the prequel to Fight Song. In the fight song MV, it starts with a person flipping a casette tape with "How to eat life" written on it to the other side which says "fight song" and putting it back in the casette player. Pretty damn amazing how eye has his own little universe

[@yd61]

I love EVE ドラマツルギー何度聴いても心に響く。 音が本当に琴線に触れるというべきなのか、すごくエモーショナルな感情になるんだよなぁ。 Thank you reaction!

[@Eddy-xb3ow]

I am SOSO HAPPY THAT YOU REACTED TO EVE. Eve is my favorite jpop artist by FAR. I've been listening to him for about 3 years now, and every song is worth listening to, he is just completely a special artists. Nobody is like him. Hes the best

[@chopperdlaw8590]

You're not over reacting either. For people that are able to appreciate this genre of music. Anime music or whatever. His music is nothing but tingles and goosebumps fr.

[@Engineering_is_fun_they_said]

YEESSS!!! You can't even begin to imagine how psyched I was when I saw this! I've been listening to Eve non-stop when I discovered him around a month ago. Truly love his work! These 3 songs are the ones I currently have on repeat

[@spicedxeggroll0034]

Eves been my favorite artist for years even before he entered the anime industry so to see him getting such recognition makes me hella happy Edit: Dramaturgy is an all time fav classic

[@Engineering_is_fun_they_said]

I'm a huge fan of Eve ever since I discovered him around a month ago. I'm really glad you loved his music as well (I mean who wouldn't?) I'd highly recommend to react to Minami's "Hollowness" & "Main actor". She's the one who did Domestic girlfriend OP and she's amazing!

[@FUFUUN]

Yes it's finnaly happening wooooo!!. I'm one of the people who's been waiting for you to react to E ve.

[@WeebtasticPrime]

The very reason I love his reactions is that he reminds me of the same reaction or enthusiasm I had when I started. Like seeing me I him. It's weird when I think about how I'm younger than him, but it make sense as well

[@wildriftgaming4906]

Finally a reaction after sooooo much long to watch from nick.

[@neil4358]

Nice reaction ❤️‍🔥 Eve is one of my fave japanese singer. Cant wait to other treasure u find out there.

[@supersaiyansoto]

finally you listened to my favorite Jpop artist i asked you a couple times and one time on stream but FINALLY THE DAY IS HERE THANK YOU NICK !!!

[@seungminners]

some artists i highly recommend are: -wowaka (unknown mother goose, unhappy refrain, rolling girl) -takayan (cheating is a crime) -miyashita yuu (wozwald, p.h.) -meychan (mobius, mousou kanshou daishou renmei, doctrine) -(more) eve (last dance, yamiyo, outsider, tokyo ghetto) they’re all amazing artists! fun fact: most of eve’s songs with music videos stories are connected. for example, Dramaturgy (and Literary Nonsense) shows one of the main characters Hitotsume (the guy with one eye and the top hat). How to Eat Life focuses on the main character of the series, Tobi (blonde haired guy that falls off the building), who is searching for Hitotsume. the dragon (sausage with teeth) Tobi fights in How to Eat Life gets reincarnated as the girl in Fight Song. Eve has a manga called Kara no Kioku (Memories of Void) that is the story. hope that helps a bit! :D

[@shawnboggs6209]

finally. the video ive been watin for. love u nick

[@roastinginpurgatory1400]

I consider myself to have a holy trinity of J-pop: Eve, Aimer and Ado. Yes, I love many others like Creepy Nuts, HigeDan, ZUTOMAYO, King Gnu and the list goes on, but those three...just hits different. Ado's legendary vocals, Aimer's unique breathiness and of course, Eve and his storytelling. I have been listening to Bokurano and Fight Song on repeat, especially the latter since I've had How to eat Life as my favourite Eve song for the longest time and having some kind of a sequel, featuring my boy Tobi had me falling for the song almost instantly. As for other eve songs to check out, there's Gunjo Sanka, Yoru no Honoka, Yuseiboshi (this one has a stunning MV) and Anoko no Secret are some of my favs, but seriously, all of his songs are absolute jams.

[@hoshicakes3]

Omg same!!! How to eat a life has always been my fav Eve song, until fightsong dropped that is. I still can't comprehend how he managed to top that one

[@SmOKy10]

You don't like TK? 😔

[@spireos255]

Eve, Kenshi, TK

[@DXDragon38]

Fully agree with that list! I love Ado's music!

[@reezy5153]

I was waiting for this video for so long 😭🙏🏾

[@SketlaSnake]

I found Eve when I was going through a post-study period of depression, Vocaloids and Japanese musicians saved me then, even so ironically, but I want to go back to those moments, because now this music feels different, but i still very love it

[@muhammadaman9926]

Finallllllllyyyyyyyy thank you for finally reacting to it

[@maddenjer09]

I’m hyped to see you getting into the full songs and artists catalogs!! Eve was a great start I’d really like to see you react to Tatsuya Kitani, he performed two recent bleach openings (Scar) and (Rapport) you’ve actually reacted to. Songs i recommend: HUMANLIKE When The Weak Go Marching In BAD DREAM Thanatophobia

Yess Tatsuya Kitani is so good!!

[@stuffandthings1815]

so happy to see you react to eve, definitely one of my favorite artists! obviously all of his songs sound great but the stories he tells through them are insane too. Hope you end up reacting to more of his stuff sometime soon!!! great video

Yess more Eve, more of him. I'll watch it even if the video is 5 hrs long.

You got no idea how long I waited for this because I love eve and I knew it would be good for your style as I perceive it. Banging music banging video ad always.

[@bigworldsmallperson]

I don't know if you've heard yet, but Eve's just announced the manga adaptation of the story of the characters in How to Eat Life! He'd already released a couple (I think? maybe just one) novels about it, but it's finally getting the manga it deserves.

[@o_o499]

And maybe it'll even get an Anime adaption

[@pattywu9301]

Love seeing Eve here! Fun reaction as always

[@akhutoYaro000]

I'm really glad that Eve get the recognize he deserves. Before making an OP song for JJK, eve was not that well known by even anime fans itself. Then after he's dropping Kaikai Kitan. Eve become worldwide 🔥🔥🔥

[@chokko6969]

LET'S GOOO YOU REACTED TO EVE!!! MY ALL TIME FAVORITE JAPANESE SINGER FR

[@sadaharueryo]

I believe that music genres such as Eve and Ado's songs are uniquely Japanese, derived from the Vocaloid music that was (and still is) often posted on Japanese video sites. Vocaloid music has been ridiculed by those who do not like it in Japan, so I am happy that it has evolved in its own unique way and is now appreciated overseas. I hope you will try listening to Vocaloid music sometime.

[@fox_crayon7637]

Vocaloid is a must!

[@alexanderthealright]

Not only vocaloid, he also draws heavily from modern indie & prog rock and funk/disco, with jazzy elements as well. Like many musicians with a strong artistic vision, his music defies simple categorization.

[@ReverseSnow]

Finally, I've been waiting to see you react to Eve's MVs especially How to eat life, It is one of my favorite MV from Eve, I can't wait to see you react to more of his MVs

it's hilarious and amazing to see your reaction every time eve is one of the first Japanese utaites (singers who don't show their faces on the internet) that I discovered, and he is one of the best. I recommend you to listen to other utaites like: mafumafu : his covers for (life hates us now) and (self-inflicted achromatic) his original songs like( hunger ) and (red spider lily) he also has a collaboration with his friend soraru called (after the rain). another artist I recommend is hanatan, especially her collaboration songs with kikuo (it's called kikuhana) like (desert theater), (climb higher! advance! to the high tower).

[@Anto-kb5ck]

"Bit by bit, i come to hate it, but i come to like it" i really like this sentence because it discribe perfectly life experiences. At first, you may not want to do something, (easy exemple, like sport) because of your known area, where you feel great, and know the outcomes of each actions you take, it's a cocoon of things you know, whether good or bad. But the true experience in life, and the true joy, is find in new era that you'll explore. Like prostate. Joke, but you really gotta live those new experiences. Otherwise you're just a house cat.

[@Attor715]

Honestly I just want to see you react to more E ve! Every song of his is an absolute experience. Seeing as you like the less bright/positive sounding songs, the ones I'd recommend are "Leo," "Living Idly and Dying as if Dreaming," "Outsider," "Nonsense Bungaku," and "Tokyo Ghetto." "Leo" is a relatively slow song but its got points thst sound pretty similar in vibe to that contemplative deep break that "How to eat life" has. "Living Idly and Dying as if Dreaming" is just an absolute masterpiece with its beautiful art so while it's a bit brighter than the others I listed, I think it would be an experience in itself! Have fun with E ve! His original songs that have music vids are on his own channel along with songs that he's covered (He used to cover vocaloid songs only before he made his own songs).
