And Moonlamp-chan will also continue following my musical journey!🌕 これからもMoonlampちゃんが私の旅についてきてくれることになりました！🌕

[@DHsPianoLand]

Moonlamp chan is that side character that is introduced too late in the story but everyone loves it and it sticks until the end.

[@trxps2829]

This new season feels like you took what you learned from the Nord Grand redemption arc and implemented it back into your original setup! I loved everything about this so much, it's really so beautiful. The lighting, the way Moonlamp Chan adds the visual spectacles of the previous arc, and of course this incredible arrangement. Great to have you back Animenz! Edit: Was the arpeggio at 3:50 similar to or the same as one of the arpeggios in your Butter-Fly arrangement? Just a weird little coincidence I noticed, if true.

Congratulations on getting back the Steinway D274 Spirio R Grand Piano. This is absolutely a stunning arrangement, and it gave me lots of nostalgic vibes. I also look forward to your future development Animenz! Here are my favorite highlights of this arrangement: I really like the quiet beginning, sounds exactly like the original song. At 0:32, I love the gentle bass notes, it sounds heavy but warm. 0:48 gentle "cross-hand" technique, serve as a very nice simple 3 hand technique. 1:13 The entire atmosphere is built up with dynamic octave patterns. As you said, simple is the best. The pattern here has also reminded me of the first verse of your Kaikai Kitan arrangement. 1:44 The second verse starts with 3 hand technique, the LH patterns used in the first verse are now moved to the RH and served as a nice contrast with the previous part. 2:12 The combination between staccato and fast LH arpeggios has formed a nice pre-chorus part. 2:44 I really like how you arranged this part. While LH is playing bass notes and melody at the same time, RH plays fast arpeggios. It has reminded me of the last chorus of your The Everlasting Guilty Crown arrangement. Very fancy passage. 3:36 is 10/10 my favorite part of this arrangement. As you said, this part DESERVE it! The release of the pedal, strong RH decorations, and powerful bass notes simply exploded this part and set the entire arrangement on fire. 3:56 After an octave glissando, the entire arrangement has entered the final part. Glissando can always serve as a fast and convenient transition while arranging anime piano covers. The following fast LH arpeggios have built a "sound wall" for the entire song. This part has definitely reminded me of your arrangement of This Game, Swordland, and unravel. Feels nostalgic! Another wonderful arrangement by Animenz! Good luck with your next upload!

[@Animenzzz]

Yeah, the keyword for this arrangement is "nostalgia" indeed! It really has been a while since I used such extensive arpeggios for both hands. And I agree, 3:36 is the BEST part of the entire song, Key Change for the win!

The continuous low bass notes really take good advantage of the 9-foot concert grand, but i am quite surprised that you use the deepest bass note in the first chorus ,usually you save that for the last chorus when the song reaches its climax .some highlight for this arrangement: The three hand techniques at 2:43 and 3:36 really stands out from the other,especially the 3:36 with slightly staccato is genius .i think the reason your arrangements attract me so much is because you can always surprise me with the deploy of different sound texture. The left hand arpeggios and right hand B note tremolo at 3:51 is almost identical to your Departure (guilty crown)arrangement .The left hand octave glissando at 3:57 reminds me of your Daisy arrangement,and the following left hand arpeggios at 3:58 reminds me of your swordland arrangement, the satisfying D note in 4:10 is also a nice touch, Finally ,the sound wall at 4:31 by fast upward scales is a big release for the tension which gives me the same vibe as your unlasting arrangement although in unlasting you use fast downward arpeggios instead of upward scales to create that release effect.Masterpiece as usual! Lastly, Animenz, if it's possible, I hope the video you make in the future can have higher angle just like your 2020 video to include the damper head of piano in the sight so we can know how you use the pedal(e.g. the camera angle of your 2021 this game video and this there is a reason video isn't high enough, the damper head is out of sight) , thank you!!!

Welcome back Steinway-kun at long last, and to moon lamp-chan as well 🙂 The name of the *game* in this cover for me is deep resounding bass. It really serves as the foundation upon which the rest of the elements reside. My personal play-by-play for this cover: 0:31 - deep bass note here sets the tone for the introductory verse 0:54 - slow yet deliberate countermelody in the RH rings so nicely 1:11 - first chorus LH - simple yet effective marching bass. it's not often that i see an Animenz go down to one LH note, but the unexpected contrast works nicely here 1:43 - second verse RH - light upper voice harmony rings nicely 2:18 - deep bass in the middle of the second pre-chorus punches so nicely 2:43 - The signature arpeggio countermelodies from the og This Game cover make their first appearance! 3:18 - Chill upbeat bridge, a nice change of pace from the intensity of the rest of the piece 3:33 - Arpeggio build up to pseudo third chorus gave me chills 3:36 - Ringing upper RH chords so nice 3:55 - Key change into another beautifully arpeggiated final chorus :O 4:18 and 4:25 - Strong bookend motifs to cap off the final chorus 4:32 - All of the massive build-up suddenly subsides in resonance, serving as a backdrop for the soft outro The Animenz Season 2 end card gave me chills. Can't wait to see what you have in store for us!

[@Animenzzz]

I also realized it's the first time I am using such a massive bass note like the C# before the chorus has even started. Perhaps I just fell in love with the satisfactory bass note sound on the grand piano, haha

@@Animenzzz i can't believe you replied..i think my life is completed now, no jokes 笑

[@vadrr-animeonpiano]

Oh hell yeah the GP is back. Our god has returned.

[@sui7584]

The Grand Piano is back So NGNL will also come back right?

[@Animenzzz]

I .... wish... we all really wish...

[@Meyliart]

Yeah, there will be a rebroadcast of no game no life in Japan on July 7.

[@taile7107]

And the author finished writing vol 11

[@holl0918]

I need more! MORE!

[@shinsekai101]

They re air it soon in japan

[@auveda4390]

OMG IT'S HERE OMG IT'S HERE I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR SO LONGGGG OMG IT'S HERE

[@PianoVI]

Was it hard readjusting to playing on a grand? and that 2 hand gliss tho!

[@Animenzzz]

yeah, it was surprisingly hard. 8 months without access to a grand piano is really hard for a classically trained pianist.

[@vevan99]

Thank you so much Animenz for arranging the song that I have never been able to properly translate onto the piano❤ . And now to wait for the piano score👀

[@Tristan-mv6lc]

Very excited for the return of the Steinway, but the temporary nord stage grand still sounded really good, was the sound directly from the piano or were you using a VST with it?

There is a Piano - No Animenz No Life: Grand

[@irisho5684]

This sound. Unmatched. I listened to the clip on Instagram on repeat.

[@zihewu5050]

The abandoned piano pressed dislike🤣

[@Animenzzz]

Best comment right here. (But I still occasionally use the stage piano for late night practice so it's not completely abandoned!)

おかしいな。風邪でも引いたかな？ 鳥肌と涙が・・ 控えめに言って　最強。

[@kekw-b2h]

Just out of curiosity Doesn’t moonlamp-chan mess up with the acoustics?

[@Animenzzz]

It's tiny (palm sized), so it's not really interfering much

[@kekw-b2h]

@@Animenzzz Oh ok! Alright 👍🏻 Ty

[@belindaarispe3497]

There is a reason...Animenz, grand piano and the moonlamp chan... fill our lives with music, magic... I'm very happy to see you again! Greetings from Argentina!

[@laepiano]

How about... the second reason?

[@maxeye9164]

so happy to see you got a Steinway again !

[@o249s3]

The Steinway sounds so good, I could cry

[@nathanielthomas7642]

He has returned!!

[@bulfkin166]

the song is actually good! i love ngnl

[@kimthu9572]

It's wonderful, when I hear the melody of this song again, every time I listen to it, I feel emotional,

[@claudiomenchinelli7465]

Animenz finally hit his final form. Glad that grand-kun is back at it again as well
