I still remember how OBSESSED I was with this song after watching this season of Higurashi, the meaning tying so well with the story. And you managed to replicate that same feeling I got from the first time I listened to it.
3:51 That there's an image. "I still believe you can't be a flower of hell" paired with silhouette of Hanyuu forgiving Takano after all her other allies have abandoned her. That makes the song about saving Takano herself from the madness she created as much everyone else. I kind of love that take on this song.
I can't imagine how difficult it must be to keep the emotions the original gives you, but you always make it possible
i don't know if anyone mentioned it before, but I love how the last 8 images reflect their respective chapters. Chapter 1 - our introduction to Keiichi. Chapter 2 - Shion's introduction as Mion's surpise twin sister. Chapter 3 - Keiichi protecting Satoko. Chapter 4 - Rika's first meeting with Akasaka at the bus stop. Chapter 5 - Shion and Satoshi's tragic relationship. Chapter 6 - Keiichi and Rena's fight on top of the school. Chapter 7 - Rika learning that fate can be broken by Keiichi. And finally Chapter 8 - Everyone get's a happy ending. Absolutely incredible
And you truly have no idea how much I love Higurashi.
I expected Analogy but this is an extremely pleasant surprise as well.
Higurashi is such a emotional roller coaster of an anime. Yes it's horror, and there is blood and gore. But there is so much to it. I felt such an mental attachment to all the awaome charachters
I got chills through this whole cover😁 My high school days coming back to me just listening to this song over and over😁😁😁
Out of all the "Higurashi When They Cry" openings. This one is my number one favorite opening and you did a beautiful and brilliant job on this song. I'm left speechless by how perfectly your voice fits this song 🎧😭🌠✨🌌
I was just playing Umineko and this dropped. Can't think of a better timing.
Im rewatching higurashi since i watch it with friend of mine who discovers the plot for the first time. Each week end it is a blessing to see him trying to unlock the mystery after each episode
I never watch Higurashi, but I'm will once I'm done repeating this song for about an hour or so. Great song as always.
I'm in the middle of rewatching Season 2 with my wife. So this is perfect. Thanks for all your Higurashi songs!
Kai was peak Higurashi, and this opening is Lee's best work YET!
I cannot express how AMAZING this song is! All the emotion and depth I felt when I first heard it came rushing back, and I didn't realize how much it would affect me. Seriously, you and everyone who helped bring this song to us are phenomenal! I've had it on repeat for the last few days and I'm definitely gonna buy it so I can listen to it while I exercise! Thanks for putting so much into this! Can't wait to see what your original album is like too! I'm so psyched for it! Keep up the great work!
Finally the most awaited song is here. You don't know how much I waited for this
Come now and let us forget The future just ahead Soon now before our whole world bathes in blood again Like how the wind curls around The calm just before the storm I take it that too is a sign Break away, escape Break away, escape From this path that we've made and this wicked fate I still believe that you can't be A flower of hell You're not meant for this place Don't you blossom here Don't you blossom here Every step is a trap So easily ensnared The shards of time are flying by now Without a single sound Ayi ayi ooh Ayi ayi Who's that? Who's grasping my hand and holding to it tight? Who's that caressing my hair? A touch so soft and light The sprouts that were crying out Their sorrow the saddest song I take it that too is a sign Fly away, don't wait Fly away, don't wait Don't fall under the weight of the wheels of fate I still believe that you can't be A flower of hell You're not meant for this place Don't you dare grow here Don't you dare grow here Don't you leave any seeds Or sow anymore tears The everchanging karma sprouting Repeating once again Break away, escape Break away, escape From this path that we've made and this wicked fate I still believe that you can't be a flower of hell You're not meant for this place Don't you blossom here Don't you blossom here Every step is a trap So easily ensnared The shards of time are flying by now Without a single sound Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Season 2 of Higurashi is a fucking masterpiece.
I was obsessed with this song years ago. I’m shook right now xD
