背徳の冥館 :Rosen blood by Ishizue kachiru

First Impression: Rosen Blood

While making her way through a forest of thorns to get to her new job, Stella gets into a carriage accident. When she wakes up, she finds herself in a mysterious manor with the man who rescued her, named Levi-Ruin, along with three other men. With no money left to complete her original journey, she asks to work as a maid for the four men. Just what mysteries does her new workplace hold?

The main draw of Rosen Blood is its art, and to be honest, that’s about it. While the story certainly gives off gothic literature vibes (à la Dracula and such), it is very much a shoujo manga. Stella is your typical shoujo protagonist who is dense with absolutely no self-awareness (the end of volume one definitely leaves no doubts about it), while her harem the rest of the characters are walking red flags attractive and mysterious, yet highly questionable.

Other readers have compared this series to “Diabolik Lovers”, though I cannot personally attest to this. But if you are into vampire romances with a hint of mystery, perhaps Rosen Blood is worth a try.

Thank you for taking the time to read this review! I hope you will check out Alice in Mangaland for more manga reviews in the future! Arigato gozaimasu! Thank you!

Now that was a lovely little video, 13 minutes worth of insight. YAY for that.  Seems like both Hikaru and Hideyuki Gushimiyagi will talk a bit about their work and then another creater involved in the project will answer three questions on a questionnaire regarding the specific song. Fans are also invited to ask more questions and Hikaru will try to reply to them at a later point. Everyone be sure to LIKE Hikaru’s videos and SUBSCRIBE to her YouTube Channel!! Seems like every week there is going to be a new video in this series so please look forward to it!

Summary/Highlights below the cut 〈(•ˇ‿ˇ•)-→

Her two albums have had a limited release so she hasn’t really talked in depth about all of the songs on these albums. That’s why she thought a video series like this would be a good idea. Hikaru is joined by her composer Hideyuki Gushimiyagi (called Gushi-kun by Hikaru). Before the two met, Gushi had already written two songs and sent the demos to her (”pulsation” being one of them. He let himself be inspired by her work in Kalafina, the impression she left on him was used to write those first two songs). Gushi wanted the first song to be a sort of introduction to Hikaru as a solo artist and he was very nervous since he thought he had some big shoes to fill after Kalafina. They did end up discussing the sample and it gradually took shape.

As we all know, this was the first time Hikaru wrote lyrics. Transitioning into her solo activities was a big stept into a new world and a new mental state. For this occasion she wanted to write motivational lyrics full of life, power and positivity. She really wanted some momentum for her debut so it would leave a lasting impression not only on people who already knew her from Kalafina but also on people who discovered her for the first time. The song (especially the last verse) was meant to be like a flashback scene. Hikaru was very nervous during the recording since she had never worked together with anyone other than YK so to hear someone else’s thoughts was kinda strange.

Now they are talking about the PV illustrations and what kind of image they wanted to convey with it. Seems like for the first video the design was heavily inspired by Hikaru’s ideas/lyrics/singing. For later PV designs they didn’t really involve Hikaru too much in the process it seems. Hikaru brings up the questionnaire with three questions answered by the PV’s illustrator Kachiru Ishizue.

What was your impression when you first heard the song?: A quiet sense of fluttering, the strong flap of wings, something that seemed suitable for a debut song: And yeah, that’s pretty much the image of the song as intended by Gushi, a jump start into a wide world

Any difficulties in the making of the illustrations? Apparently Hikaru had asked for a vast scenery that was very nostalgic and classical with little to no colour. That proved a bit difficult since the illustrator didn’t really know how to do the plants with her colours.

Anything you want the viewers to pay attention to while watching the video? The strings, Hikaru’s strong vocals and the stylish video design
