Ohhh, very excited about this release (despite the abundance of artists I do not care for XD). We are actually getting a music video for “Parade” which is a brand new track! I LOVE FictionJunction’s version of “Beginning” so I am happy to see it included here. Not expecting much from “Prologue” but I am definitely looking forward to “ことのほかやわらかい“ (which is another new song as far as I know? According to YK, Keiko likes to call this song “cinnamon roll-chan so I am guessing it is ultra sweet?). “それは小さな光のような” still hasn’t grown on me but it’s great that Keiko is getting her very own solo track alongside high-profile artists such as LiSA and Aimer. More power to her, YAY!
The Blu-ray content isn’t too exciting considering that all of this was broadcast on Streaming+ already but hey, I don’t mind having an official release for it.

蒼穹のファンファーレ : I really like that we got everyone on stage for this brand new song. Feels like a proper celebration. The studio version is not my favourite because I am not a fan of Aoi Eir, ASCA or ReoNa but this live version is pretty neat.

as the certified #1 Alfons enjoyer, could I get your opinion?
so I've been listening to your alfons playlist (it's really good) but I'm also making one for myself that has more songs I'm into as well, and I was wondering if "chosen" by dua saleh fits him? I only know him from the eng server (and a few translations), so I would like an expert opinion before I commit to adding it.
only if you have the time or want to check it out, that is!
NAH MY BROWSER BROKE TRYING TO ANSWER THIS ASK
HELP... I'M THE #1 ALFONS ENJOYER NOW... 😭😭 AND I'M BEING CONSULTED FOR THIS... HEKJFKDHVKDLFJ
oooo you're making a playlist too??? could you send it once you're done 😇
ngl I'm from english server too (I know a bit of JP but I'm lazy 💀). checking this out right now. I am always free for Alfons research... I'm going insane...
about the song you mentioned - the verdict is go ahead 👍 I'd say it is more about him in a general way. says a lot about intoxication and the thrill. but honestly if I'm not sure I go pull up the lyrics and do an analyzation before deciding 💀💀
I forgot to make the thumbnails for the other LIs to publish the playlists thank you for reminding me 🌝
rambling under cut
my irl said "you probably think the alfons playlist is a masterpiece don't you? 😔"
I didn't think much of it at the time
Until I went on a listening marathon
speaking of my choice in songs for these playlists... it usually includes (examples from alfons playlist)
- LI singing to MC
- MC singing to LI (I would like to point out "KOE" - ASCA and "MEMORIA" - Eir Aoi. The main songs out of place. These songs are mainly about grief and loss, or forgetting someone / something. Alfons' MC, post-curse.)
- joke / troll songs / inside jokes especially in alfons'. more hidden though. (Tom Lehrer is the most obvious)
- vibe of LI - music mainly (eg. Chogakusei, "Loveit?")
- vibe of LI - lyrics only. sometimes these songs don't really fit the LI musically but we cope
usually when making character playlists I keep these playlists to myself or just leave them public but never mention them publically like on tumblr - my brain works differently and I understand every little reference but that means I'd need to explain these playlists 💀💀
there are few songs that I feel suit them perfectly in both music and lyrics. these songs tend to be near the top of the playlist. however - due to certain headcanons occupying my brain recently about Alfons' curse, some songs feel out of place
some songs made me curl up and cry when in alfons context specifically
- "House of Memories" - P!ATD
- "Flight of the Crows" - Jhariah
- "KOE" - ASCA
- "MEMORIA" - Eir Aoi
there will be an explanation for alfons' at some point... not now though irl life is getting pretty busy
