Evening all, I have a night full of studying dreadfully planned ahead, so today’s log will have to be a quickie. Thankfully, I know just the song! But first, how long does it take for you to obsess over something – specifically anime? For me, you can recommend and rant all you want about a show, but it I won’t be hooked until I either A) see the artwork, promotional poster or whatnot, or B) hear the opening/music from the anime. I have heard oodles of fans gawk about how pleasant this cute little show is, but it wasn’t until after I heard the opening – bestowed to us by the Goddesses of Kalafina themselves – that I truly met my love ~
From Sound of the Sky, “Hikari no Senritsu” by Kalafina
I found this, what two days ago, and I love it so much that the words are literally bubbling and foaming at my mouth! I CANNOT stop listening to this elegant song. Such poise, free spirit, and sense of adventure; apparently, the anime has these elements, so straight after Hyouka you all know what I’ll be chasing after! But yes, what an enchanting melody – definitely one of Kalafina and Kajiura’s finest works to ever grace my ears. All I want to do is lay down under a tree, a breeze fluttering in the air, my knees propped up on one another, arms thrown behind my head, and chill. I just want to take a terminal break from school work and taste the liberation I seek that’s found nowhere near this wretched thing we call an “agenda.” But this’ll have to do for now, and it’s one hell of a substitute 🙂
So what are you currently raving over? Did the fire erupt overnight or has it been a week-long curse to have it stuck in your head 😉 Also, what did you think of Sound of the Sky? Ya’ll need to let me know in the comments! Have a fantastic day, and milk all that you can out of the few seconds of free breath you can manage, because they’ll fly by in an flash. Till tomorrow!

So beautiful! The singer has an amazing voice and I love that flute intro! The song has a very dignified yet yearning emotion to it that steals the imagination! ❤

Hehehe, nope, sorry, I think natural curiosity beat us both to this one 😛 And yes, it has soared to the top of my all time favorite openings in a matter of minutes – I haven’t even seen the anime to confirm this!

Haven’t really listened much but it sounds like they do this type of music better than upbeat ones, voice is so pretty x)

I find their pumped up “end of all ends” music to be epic and gratifying to any show, but seeing this softer side of them almost makes me favor this over their explosive stuff.

Sorry for the misunderstanding, if there is one! What I meant by the quotes was the style – it feels as if it belongs to an epic anime where the world could end and such. It’s not a song title. But lol, “heavenly blue” and “to the beginning” fit the feel of you wanna check them out! XDDD
