Favorite Lives Masterpost

Last update: 5/7/17

So I originally had this as a page I created in my descriptions, but I decided to make a master post bc.....

I want to hear about everyone else’s favorite lives!!!!!! ^_^

As we all know, Kalafina’s lives are as good, if not better than many of their studio versions. Because they are AMAZING!!!!

Anyways.... ヽ(　･∀･)ﾉ

Here are some of my favorite Kalafina performances and why I like them ♡

I included a few FictionJunction ones as well because there are some good WaKei harmonies in them, and they are just quality songs overall.

Please let me know if any of the links don’t work anymore! Sometimes they get taken down from the websiteヾ(｡﹏｡)ﾉﾞ

___________________________________________________________________

Kalafina

“Natsu no Ringo” - Red Moon LIVE 2010 Well first of all, this is like the only Natsu no Ringo live there is (or that I can find) and it makes me sad because I really love this song. Nonetheless, I love this live because Hikaru was given one of Wakana’s solos at 1:33 and slays it in my opinion, but I also love how it contrasts with Wakana’s at 3:22. This one really brings out the metallic-ness of Hikaru’s voice that I love, but hearing Wakana take over at the end makes me feel very relaxed in a way.

“Ongaku” - LIVE 2016 I always love their Ongaku lives because of how pumped they get, but this one is my favorite. I think Keiko looks hot and the WaKei moments at 0:14 and 2:22 kill me >.< Wakana’s solo is also epic on this stage.

“Sprinter” - Red Moon LIVE 2010 There are several Sprinter lives out there on the internet, but I think this is my favorite one of them all. Keiko looks so genuinely happy here I can’t help but almost be moved to tears. They seem very connected to the audience here more than other lives of this song and it just makes me smile very big.

“Hikari no Senritsu” - Consolation Special Final LIVE 2013 Hikari no Senritsu is another one of my favorite Kalafina songs! I’ve seen a few lives of this also but this one is my favorite because I think the balance is perfect and they all sing very on point. Hikaru’s high harmony during the chorus stands out more than other lives I seen, and I love it because that’s not something we get to hear often. They look very beautiful in a simple way as well, and I really like watching them in this.

“Kyrie” - Red Moon LIVE 2010 Kyrie is probably one of my top five favorite Kalafina songs. I love Keiko’s harmonies in this, especially around 1:06, and Hikaru’s emotion in her solo parts. Wakana’s voice also carries very well, and overall this song just gets me very pumped.

“Lacrimosa” and “Magia” - Kitakyushu LIVE 2011 These by no means are their best performance of these songs at all, but that is in fact why I love them so much. Wakana’s voice is very strained here, but that is because she was very sick and had the flu. Yet, she decided to perform anyways and I admire her so much for that. Everyone knows even when I have a minor cold all I want to do is lay in bed and sleep. This shows how dedicated and serious Wakana is about Kalafina. Plus, she doesn’t sound that bad either. I am also impressed by how well Keiko and Hikaru can hold their harmonies even when Wakana is a little off key. These girls are so talented!

“Magia” - LIVE Okay, so this video was my second Kalafina live video, and as soon as I watched the first minute where the girls walk through the audience I knew I had already fallen deep into the abyss of Kajiura land. I remember thinking “Alright, these girls are BADASS.” I also love how Magia brings out the gritty Hikaru voice we don’t always get to hear. She really rocks this song.

“Neverending” - LIVE 2011 There’s not really any particular reason I like this, but they do a good job. Most of their lives are better than their studio version, in my opinion. Hikaru sounds good here also, not that she ever sounds bad (´∀｀)♡

“Door” - Consolation Special Final LIVE 2013 THIS, my friends, THIS is the video that made me see Keiko in a new light. I wish the studio version had her flawless rifts at the end because I have never had this kind of sensation while listening to music!! I didn’t know the girl could move from her deep contralto to a falsetto so easily, and I was so in awe of it. Additionally, all of the girls’ voices sound very smooth in this live. I wish there was more than this one live of this song that I could find.

“Heavenly Blue” - Anisama LIVE 2014 Heavenly Blue has been and probably always will be my favorite Kalafina song. That being said, I had to find a live worthy of what this song is and this is my favorite performance of it. I think the audience is really cool in this one because they all have glow sticks, and the stage they are on is huge. All of their vocals are pretty on point as well, and I really like the choreography. It is highly probable that this is my most-watched Kalafina live.

“Heavenly Blue” - Studio LIVE This was my first Kalafina live video and the one that got me into them. It’s definitely not one of their best performances of this song sound-wise but this video will always have a special place in my heart.

“Alleluia” - LIVE 2016 Woah, this performance of Alleluia is very moving and gorgeous. The girls hit the nail on the head. When I first watched it, I was like “woah is Keiko doing an a cappella solo of this?” Then when the other two showed up I was like “woah are they all doing an a cappella of this?” Then when the music finally showed I was already in awe so it didn’t really matter. Keiko really carries her solo almost perfectly for stripping the music, and I really love the kimonos and traditional atmosphere of this live. The girls really sang this one with emotion.

“Alleluia” - 日本武道館 LIVE 2015 You have to skip to around 16:30 to find this performance, but it is worth it because this has to be the most perfect Kalafina performance of all time. All of the girls’ voices are flawless here, they look beautiful, and the scenery/backdrop is gorgeous and fitting for an already beautiful song. Not to mention the skinships between Keiko and the other two in this（*’∀’人）♥ They seem in such a state of bliss during this performance and it really is like the angels are singing down to me.

“Blaze” - 日本武道館 Arena LIVE 2016 I believe this was the third live of theirs that I watched and I like this live because this was the one that finally allowed me to distinguish whose voice was whose (#^.^#) I also love their energy and their dresses here.

FictionJunction

In the Land of Twilight, Under the Moon - LIVE After exploring more their lives more, FictionJunction has quickly grown on me, and some of their performances/covers of songs have quickly become some of my favorite songs of all time. This is one of them. It was the first FictionJunction live that I saw and I was obsessed with it! This performance hits you at full force as soon as it starts and keeps you engaged until the very last second. Honestly, the lyrics make no sense but the song is catchy as hell and the polyphony is absolutely mind blowing. This is also the best live performance of this song in my opinion because the girls are so close to each other and are full of energy.

My Long Forgotten Cloistered Sleep - LIVE The beat to this song, especially the slow march-sounding one at the beginning, really makes me feel some type of way. They actually do pretty well singing this in English, and Wakana does an amazing job carrying the song. The WaKei harmonies are also very nice.

Gaika - LIVE 2014 This is my second favorite WaKei harmony. I think Keiko’s harmonies are very mesmerizing and I love this dark attitude she gives out. She always looks so cute in FictionJunction videos because she seems so tiny compared to giant Kaori. Wakana does a beautiful job as always. This song just really sounds empowering also and it is one of my favorite Kajiura creations.

Kimi ga Ita Monogatari - LIVE 2014 THIS IS MY FAVORITE WAKEI HARMONY OF ALL TIME!!!!!! This song is like, my WaKei theme. And it might very well be my favorite Kajiura creation aside from Heavenly Blue. I don’t know why but this song just really hits me. There’s a longing feeling to it that I think Wakana and Keiko, especially Keiko, carry out very well. Not to mention the *very subtle* WaKei moment from 4:07 - 4:10, and then the big one at 4:22. Their harmony from this point is very beautiful and I could listen to it all day. A secondary note, I love the very little sly glance to the right Keiko does at 5:24 that you can easily miss while Wakana finishes her note. My little fantasizing brain can’t help but think it’s a proud look. Like “Yep. That’s my girl.” AHHHHH I LOVE THEM.

Kalafina 27 Week Challenge: Week 10 & 11!

Hi!! I accidentally missed last week's challenge so I'll do last week and this week in one post! Please forgive my lazy ass for not doing this earlier ;A; Favorite thing about each Kalafina member? Well, the obvious reason would be their talent but let's not go with that because that's just TOO obvious lol Keiko: Honestly she's one of the happiest people I've ever seen. Her happiness and optimism is just so contagious, and her smile is just so bright and pretty, it makes you feel kind of hopeful, if you get me? She transmits a very hopeful feeling. She's a very encouraging person and the way she talks about Wakana and Hikaru is just ASDFGHJKL (sorry for my fangirl spasm orz). She loves them so much and it makes me happy. (P.D. Wakana why won't you let Keiko nuzzle you TAT, she just wants to feel your love~~~). Keiko has gone a very long way to achieve what she has done, I just dislike it when I see comments like "she doesn't put much effort into singing" (yes, I've seen this kind of comments around!). Like, excuse me, do you have any idea of all the work she has done to achieve her almost-flawless voice?? No you don't so shush. Wakana: She's such an amazing person, isn't she? She's just so interesting, with all of her obsessions and whatnot. She's such a nerdy person (from sharks and dinosaurs to stars and the weather, she has so many interests). Also the fact that she's such a movie/TV/book nerd is so cute. Honestly, what's not to love about our Sharkana? She has kind of a mom vibe tho (not that it's a bad thing~ Please Mum Wakana, take care of Keiko and Hikalu). Also, the way Wakana has overcome all of her difficulties and problems is just so admirable. She's such a strong person, isn't she? Even when she was sick, she would just go out and sing her lungs out. I mean, when I'm sick I don't even want to make oral presentations in class, but she's just so... wow. Hikaru: I think she's the most relatable member of the group, isn't she? I mean, I feel like we all can relate to Hikaru. She loves to sleep, eat, sleep more... wait am I talking about Hikaru or about myself? Lol. She's such a calm person, and when she gets excited about her hobbies it's just too cute (even if I don't watch anime, how can I not love Geekaru??). No offense but it really irks me when Maya fans bash on Hikaru, and start rambling about how Maya was so much better than Hikaru. It's not Hikaru's fault that Maya left the group (or whatever happened, idk...). And, in my personal opinion, Hikaru is a great vocalist and there's no need for comparisons! Favorite live performances One of my favorite live performances has always been the Kalafina Red Moon live 2010 in JCB Hall (throwback to when I was 10 yo and didn't have the slightest idea that Kalafina even existed...). Since it says to include specific songs, I'd choose Hoshi no Utai, I have a dream and Ongaku from that performance, because it's just too damn amazing.

Kalafina Singing Analysis

I have been watching a lot of Kalafina live recently, and I thought it would be fun to analyse how the girls sing, and how their abilities have changed throughout the years of them being in Kalafina. I will be covering each of the girls (in order of Wakana, Keiko and Hikaru). I would love any constructive criticism or any other points.

Note: I am not a professional singer or a singing teacher. I just thought it would be interesting for analyse each of Kalafina’s members singing techniques, the good and the bad, with what knowledge I do have about singing. I have been singing for 7 years, been in many choirs both in school and out. I have been taught by different singing teachers. I am also not perfect, I have many flaws in my singing as well, but myself pointing flaws out in the girls does not mean that I am saying that I am any better.

In order to clarify for later parts:

For the voice range information, I have recorded instances of all the girls singing not just in Kalafina Songs, but in FictionJunction songs and lives, as well as covers on TV, Kalafina Club Openings, and Wakana’s Solo Album With that, let’s get started.

Wakana has always been a soprano. There are lots of different sources on what the range of a soprano is, Choirly.com says that the soprano range is B3 - G6, but both wikipedia (including a cited source) and musicnotes.com says that the soprano range lies between C4 and C6. The highest notes I have recorded Wakana reaching is G5# in her falsetto/head voice and I’m sure she can reach higher. The lowest note she has been recorded to reach is F3 (in Kioku no Hito) but I do not consider that a low note she can reach comfortably, the note is very breathy and weak and barely audible, especially later in the song. The lowest note I would consider Wakana to somewhat comfortably reach, even though it is breathy, is A3. In terms of range alone, Wakana could be considered a Mezzo-Soprano, but I think her timbre is what sets her apart. Wakana’s voice is quite high-pitched. Even when she hits notes that are not particularly high for a soprano, it sounds high and impressive because her voice is so high pitched. This is a bit random, but a lot of people say that they believe Wakana’s voice took a full 180 in 2012, but I argue that it had been getting more high pitched for a while before then. Compare Wakana’s voice in ARIA from their Live in 2008 to the Red Moon Live in 2010, it does sound more high pitched.

More on tone, Wakana’s voice used to be a lot fuller than it is now. It had a lot more strength and power in earlier songs and lives, it has became a lot weaker over the years and I think this shows especially in the most recent lives, when her voice would almost jump off in between notes as if it was barely holding on (I take serenato and Kizuato from the 10th Anniversary Live as examples). Her voice is a lot quieter than Keiko and Hikaru’s even at her most powerful. Wakana’s voice was full because of her tone, but then her power became backed by a overuse of nasal placement. In the After Eden Live and Kalafina’s performances in the Type Moon Fes. 2012, Wakana’s higher pitched voice accompanied by a honky tone was there for a while until late 2012 to 2013, where her voice almost seemed to lose power almost completely. Wakana’s voice is incredibly thin and weak during the consolation live and similarly in the 2014 live tour and the FictionJunction elemental tour. Her voice has somewhat recovered since then to a place where she sounds mostly comfortable in her current voice tone. She still has some honky moments, which I don’t think sound nice at all, but when her voice is clear I find it to be the most beautiful (i.e. most of Ai no Hana). I disagree when some people say that her current voice sounds like her ‘old voice’, because there are so many things that are different and she will probably never be able to sound like how she was back in the early Kalafina/FictionJunction days, but that’s not a bad thing necessarily.

Now let’s talk about technique. There are some parts of her technique that I find professional, she doesn’t move around a lot when singing particularly hard parts, her feet are always grounded and her posture is straight. However there are some parts (a few actually) of her singing technique that bothers me. Her breathing is quite loud and inconsistent. When breathing in between lines, you should keep your shoulders level and your breath sharp, almost as if you’re gasping or yawning so that you can open your diapghram and breathe deeply, but Wakana usually lifts her shoulders and her chest is shown to expand more that her stomach area most times when she takes a breath, this leads to her voice being strained and weak in certain instances and isn’t good for professional singers. Additionally, Wakana keeps her face quite strained when she sings. Her eyebrows are almost always furrowed. I don’t know if it’s just a habit that makes it easy for Wakana to sing or if it’s a sign that that she has trouble singing, but it can cause trouble for her. Wakana also tends to keep her head down when she sings particularly high notes, both in her high voice and falsetto. This is NOT a good way to sing high notes, your head needs to be level so that you’re not straining your vocal chords. And especially because she mostly sings from her chest, this can be very straining on her voice. Whenever she is singing, Wakana is usually still. Her feet stay in place, but she is constantly moving the top of her body as she changes lines and hits certain notes. She can move rather violently whenever she breaths quickly, especially because it’s from her chest. This causes a problem in control.

I know my analysis does sound mostly critical (maybe a bit petty) and negative, but I do think Wakana has come strides and I still love her voice most of the time. I’m very proud of Wakana for overcoming her obstacles and being mostly comfortable with where she is now, both voice and career wise. In fact I think she sounds the best now than she has in years.

Keiko’s voice is the only one of the three members to have not changed drastically over Kalafina’s career. Based on range alone, I would consider Keiko to be either an alto or a mezzo-soprano. She can reach notes in a chest voice that mezzos or sopranos can reach. The highest note in her chest voice I have recorded is an E5 from Yuki Kajiura’s Vol #1 Live almost 11 years ago, but her chest voice range has decreased about half an octave since then. Keiko has the widest (recorded) range out of the three girls being 2 and a half octaves (Wakana being 2 octaves and Hikaru currently being 1 and a half). However based on timbre, Keiko is very obviously an alto or contralto. Her voice is very deep and it is her most distinguishing feature, it can make notes sound lower than what they actually are. For example, her solo notes in 'to the beginning’ range from C4 to E4 and you wouldn’t be able to tell those notes are in her middle range unless you measured it (As a soprano, I certainly think they were low).

Keiko’s voice is incredibly versatile. She can sing very quiet or very loud and everything in between. Her voice is very full and her belting is incredibly powerful, but she can also pull her volume back and sing very delicately. Keiko can sing happy songs, dark songs, sad songs and so much more. Although she can sing low, her voice gets breathy below E3. Her falsetto is also quite full, probably the best out of the group; Keiko uses lots of support and it is very resonant. Keiko’s voice has not changed very much throughout her years in Kalafina, except becoming more full and controlled. In the studio recording of 'Kaze no Machi e’, her voice is quite breathy. I’m not sure if this was a stylistic choice, but she has certainly changed it. About 4 years into Kalafina’ career, from around 2011 - 2012, Keiko started singing in a kind of 'shouty’ way. This is especially evident in the After Eden 2011 Live, very much so in 'Mune no Yukue’, 'destination unknown’ and 'fantasia’ which is very belted and loud (almost unnecessarily so), this has most certainly been changed in later years with later performances being much more controlled. Keiko also frequently does what’s not professionally called 'vocal hiccups’, which is where you end a note with a squeaky note (it’s really hard to describe but she does it a lot). This is usually used to express emotion and in my opinion she does this a little bit too much, she has been shown to do it when the notes are in her middle to low range (I use the second chorus of 'destination unknown’ from the Blue Day LIVE 'stone cold’ from the Yuki Kajiura LIVE Vol.9 as examples).

I think that Keiko’s techniques are very admirable (except the vocal hiccups I mentioned earlier), She exercises a lot more than Wakana and Hikaru and she certainly has a lot more stamina and can afford to exert a lot more energy and power in not only her vocals but in her stage presence. Keiko’s energy has changed quite a bit over the years, she has become much more reserved in her energy when singing energetic songs, but she is still able to run and jump across the stage while singing even though she doesn’t do it much anymore. Her stance while on stage is usually good; Her posture isn’t perfect but it is usually very consistent, along with her breathing. Whenever Keiko breaths it is usually very sharp, quiet and even across her chest and diaphragm. I have seen her sometimes breath only through her nose before a line and I find that very interesting. Her diction isn’t very consistent though, she usually smiles to get a wide sound on her 'a’ and 'e’ sounds and makes her mouth narrow for 'u’ and 'o’ sounds, but she is very quick to change the sound of the vowels when she gets happy and really smiles and her 'u’ becoming tight. Normally this is a stylistic choice; her vowels get more narrow when she sings happier or poppier songs ('Samidare’ from 9+ONE LIVE, 'Kimi ga Hikari ni’ from Type Moon Fes. LIVE), and when she sings dark songs she lowers her jaw significantly in order to get that dark sound ('lirica’ from 10th Anniversary LIVE 'Kagayaku Sora no Shijima ni wa’ from Lisani LIVE 2017 w/ LiSA). The only times these choices really bother me is when they aren’t necessary for the tone of the song, which some people call her 'cutesy voice’ (she also makes her pitch higher when singing like this), especially during sad songs and honestly it bothers me sometimes as well.

Overall, I don’t think there is much to criticise when it comes to Keiko’s singing. Her voice is certainly my favourite because of its deep and powerful tone and how versatile it is and I think her techniques and consistency is a lot to admire. I certainly look forward to what she does in the future.

Hikaru’s singing voice is an interesting case of almost a complete 180 in tone and range, both good and bad. Near the start of Kalafina’s career, I would consider Hikaru a mezzo-soprano based on her range (she is still considered that , but Hikaru has been an alto in my eyes (and ears) for almost 6 years now) Hikaru used to be able to sing up to almost an E5, but now she can barely reach an F4 or higher without sounding strained. This is almost an octave erased from her chest voice range in six years. She does sing notes higher than this but they are in a region that sounds too strained and almost like she’s shouting. It certainly isn’t a comfortable range (I take 'Manten’ or 'Hikari no Senritsu’ from the 10th Anniversary LIVE as examples of how strained her voice sounds). The tone of Hikaru’s voice has changed a few times over the years. At the very beginning of Kalafina, her voice was high pitched, but from around 2009 - mid 2012, her voice deepened. After late 2012 - present, her singing voice has returned to being much more high pitched as her chest voice range has decreased. I would consider Hikaru an alto, because even though her low notes don’t sound as deep as they used to, she cannot sing nowhere near up to Keiko’s head voice range. I hate to compare her to another singer, but to someone who used to be a mezzo-soprano compared to someone who’s supposed to be an alto, even contralto, these differences cannot be ignored.

Continuing with the tone of her voice, Hikaru is able to be quite loud. I have not heard her sing live myself but I think through what I’ve seen, when she sings notes in her comfortable range she can almost belt the notes. When singing in a range that she’s not comfortable in, she becomes a fair bit quieter because she isn’t able to back herself up and it becomes almost like shouting. Hikaru’s control of her voice has remained mostly the same throughout her career. It seems quite hard for her to lower her voice when she is singing in her higher comfortable range (I use 'Tonbo’ Studio Version, 'Gogatsu no Mahou’ from 9+ONE LIVE as examples and 'Haru wa Kogane…’ from the Red Moon LIVE as examples). I really hate how she just belts out random notes sometimes when they get to be a little higher instead of keeping a controlled tone, I think it’s the weakest part of her technique and is one of the main reasons why I hate listening to 'Tonbo’ so much,One thing I think has improved in her voice is the nasality. In the early Kalafina years, her voice was very nasally and that was where some of the support for her high notes came from. You can hear it sometimes when she sung 'n’ sounds, the note was almost completely omitted. As her voice range changed over the years, so did her use of nasal in her voice. It is still there sometimes, but more in the background. A point of interest for many people for Hikaru’s voice is her falsetto and it’s interesting, she basically doesn’t use any support in her voice when reaching those notes. This leads to those falsetto notes being light, airy and very quiet. I think this is very strange in a professional singer, but it could be just a stylistic choice. I think it is one of the weaker aspects of her voice.

In a technique aspect, Hikaru has both strong and weak points, much like Wakana. Her breathing is very even across her diaphragm and her chest, and so her breathing is quiet (except for when she’s tired, obviously). Her stance is mostly very still and although she does move around a lot during energetic songs, her feet stay grounded no matter how she’s standing. Hikaru used to keep her head very level as she sung, but now she sings with her chin way up, which is a little weird but I can’t really comment on it because I’ve heard both good and bad things about it. Her facial expressions are interesting. Her eyebrows are usually furrowed in order to display emotion when she’s singing (and even when she’s not), her face is rarely relaxed. I have heard some criticism about Hikaru “focusing more on looking angry rather than singing” and I think that’s true to an extent. It seems really important to Hikaru to convey emotion to the audience in any way she can, and it doesn’t seem that it particularly bothers her. In many other songs when she struggles on a verse or a line, her facial features slacken a little so a neutral expression, so its almost like she focuses when she really needs to. On the other hand, Hikaru tends to scrunch her face up when she’s straining high notes sometimes, which is a little worrying, so overall its a bit of a mystery to me. Additionally, her dictation is good, not too wide and not too small - overall pretty consistent. Although one part of Hikaru’s technique that has formed more recently is her posture. Hikaru used to stand up straight, but she has started to sing with her back hunched over, and this is a general 'no-no’ when it comes to singing techniques. Singing with a hunched back results in a lack of control and she has been doing it for a few years now (I use sprinter from the Arena Live as an example).

Overall, I don’t like Hikaru’s voice as much as I used to and that’s mainly a matter of preference. However I do believe that she can improve and sing songs that are more in her comfortable range so she can work to improve her technique and not damage her voice in the long run. My analysis of Hikaru has been quite negative, but I still love her to pieces!

————————————

Thanks for reading this far! If there is anything I’ve said that’s wrong or you would to offer any criticism, I would love to hear what you have to say :)

For the kalafina asks: 2, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11, 13, 18, 20, 23, 24, 25, 30, 37, 38, 42, 47, 51 :)

Basic Kalafina questions:2) First Kalafina album?If you mean the first time I encountered Kalafina, then it’s be red moon (I joined the fandom at 2010). But if you mean the first album I own, it’s their latest Winter Acoustic “Kalafina with Strings”. Yeaaaa I know I’m a bad fan xD

6) Favorite Kalafina B-side?Hmm I think it’s between Gloria and Yane no Mukou ni, but when I’m being hyperactive it’s Samidare. Lol I cant choose I love them all! Natsu no asa is nice too!7) Tough question: Favorite member?OKAY. Okay. Tough question. I squeal at each one of them, but if it comes down to that, my bias is Hikaru. The cute pure sweet cinnamon roll. (psst I literally squirmed at her normal, talking voice because daaammmn sexy)8) Favorite Kalafina look/attire?Well one reason I got attracted to the ladies was because they had this goth-loli-ish style going at that time, so yes I prefer the older costumes, but favorite……….. maybe their red moon live costumes. Keiko just needs to change the shoulder bit, lol.By the way, I love Hikaru’s short hair because it gives her a sexy, mature and tough look, but damn if I don’t miss her cutie-pie long hair.

Do you…9) Own any piece of merch?If you can count a postcard that goes with the album as a merch, then yes.

Have you ever…

11) Attended a Kalafina live? (If so, how many?)BLESS THIS YEAR (cough, last year) because I was able to go to Japan and just in time for the ticket sale, so I grabbed one as fast as I could! So yes, one live, it was their Christmas live in Nagoya. I plan to attend their next 9+1 live too!13) Met them (in a greet-and-meet)?Noooooooo it was not a live with meet-and-greet session so no :’(

Random Kalafina questions:18) Do you have any ships? (Which one if so)I actually don’t, because dunno I can’t ship real persons20) Is there any food that remind you of Kalafina?Nothing I guess? But you know how they always make this pose that somewhat says ‘ta-daa look at this dish!’? Yes now it’s my pose whenever I take pictures with food.

Name a Kalafina song that…23) Makes you cryHIKARU FURU, PERIOD. Now, it’s not like I don’t cry at other songs (singing Manten and heavenly blue also makes me cry, all the time) but hikaru furu tears my heart apart in a whole new level.24) Makes your day a whole lot betterMune no Yukue, ring your bell, and Hikari no Senritsu I guess? You can see a pattern here of what calms me down lol.25) You used to dislike but now love to deathheavenly blue!! omg lol I still remember how the song came out and I couldn’t appreciate it at all because it sounded so general and too long and argh wtf is this song. But now……. yeah you see my answer above.

What Kalafina member would you choose to:30) Make pizza?I don’t know, Hikaru?? I just think that she has a lot of similar taste to mine so…37) Go to a museum?Wakana. Period. 38) Rob a bank?Why would you rob a bank xD but I’d choose all of them. I mean, you need a team to rob a bank!42) Bake a cake?Again, Hikaru. 47) Help you with homework/tests?Hikaru! I’m definitely biased but I want Big Sis to teach me!!! /shot51) Kill that hideous spider in your room? (Before you blow up your house :p)?Keiko. Tho personally I’d throw it out myself (I believe in no-killing-insects, fight me)Omg lololol the last part is so random but thank you for the ask!
