Review Touken Ranbu Musical Mihotose no Komoriuta Part 2

Assalamu'alaikum.. Konnichiwa..!! 
Hello everyone, I'm back to post review of Mihotose no Komoriuta as I promised in previous post, I post review about the live performance and the songs in main performance, and the songs I review here are the live version, not recorded version. Well, like my previous post, I write the review just based on my own opinion, and I try to write the review objectively without including my fangirling side. Hahahaha.. And I can’t say that the song is good or not because it’s about our own taste, so I just say I like it or not. Hope you like it.
 

Musical
M1. Nuide Misemashou - Sengo Muramasa

This is the opening song in this musical, Sengo’s arrival theme song. I think the melody is rocky enough and mixed with disco style. Oota Motohiro sing it very well. And.. OMG, I can’t stop laugh watching him! XD. Actually I don’t really like this type of song but Oota Motohiro’s voice is matched well with this song.

M2. Shouri no Gaika - Ishikirimaru, Tonbokiri, Sengo Muramasa, Monoyoshi Sadamune

The ‘Shitsujin’ song. IMO, this song sounds like an anime style song and so rocky. I don’t really like the solo part of each actors, because I think this type of song doesn’t really match with their voice, especially Yokota Ryuugi, his voice can’t reach the high note well. IMO, Tsubasa’s voice is more suitable for ballad type, because his voice is too soft for rock song. But, their harmonization is good and sounds so powerful. 

M3. Touken Ranbu – Everyone

The main theme song of Toumyu. The vocal harmonization is better than previous musicals, but my favorite is still Team Sanjo ft. Kashuu version. Well, I prefer the Sanjou version because it’s the original song, and become the main theme song for Toumyu projects after the Trial Performance/Atsukashiyama Ibun.

M4. Ruriiro no Sora I - Monoyoshi Sadamune, M9. Ruriiro no Sora II – Ishikirimaru, M13. Ruriiro no Sora III - Everyone

Because these songs have the same title, so I review these at once. :3. I don’t like Monoyoshi version because of his voice, so weak. In Ishikirimaru version, I like it. Tsubasa’s voice sounds so fatherly in this song, really sounds like father sings the lullaby for his child. Ruriiro no Sora III is the ending song. The last one is my favorite part, the harmony is beautiful. When I listened to this song, I don’t know why, but I get the same feeling when I listened to Utakata no Komoriuta from Atsukashiyama Ibun. I like this song, this song is beautiful even though not as beautiful as Nagoritsuki from Atsukashiyama Ibun for me, hehehehe... XD.

M5. Kibou no Minamoto - Ishikirimaru, Tonbokiri, Monoyoshi Sadamune, M6. Kibou no Minamoto Reprise – Tonbokiri

Hmm.. I don’t know what to say about this song because it’s pretty short, but I think Tsubasa’s voice sounds better in this song, and his voice can reach the high note well. Spi sings this song well too.

M7. Atarayo no Kumo - Sengo Muramasa

When I listened to this song, well, sounds emotional. Oota Motohira sings this song well. His voice can reach the high note better than the others. And... Heh banci kaleng, lu ngapain pamer paha woi!! Paha lu masih kalah mulus ama paha Awataguchi! (-w-)/

M8. Kazaguruma I - Ishikirimaru, Sengo Muramasa, Tonbokiri, Ookurikara, M11. Kazaguruma II – Ishikirimaru

This is my favorite in this musical! XD. This song is beautiful and I like the harmony, sounds like Kalafina’s type of harmony, because I heard there are three different voice type/range. Hahahahaha... XD. I like ishikirimaru’s solo part too, as I say before, Tsubasa’s voice sounds so fatherly and his voice is better in low note. XD

M10. Tada, Katsu Tame Ni – Tonbokiri

Tonbokiri’s battle theme song. This song is cool and Spi has good singing voice too, but for me, Spi’s voice doesn’t match well with this song, his voice is too soft for this type of song.

M12. Chikara ga Areba… - Ishikirimaru

If I had strength... OMG.. the saddest song in this musical.. T__T. Tsubasa puts his emotion in this song very well. Good job Tsubasa! Makes me got emotional when I listened to this song.

Live

Well, same with the previous musicals, after performing the main performance, the sword boys transform into an idol group... well, may be we can call them Bladesteel Boys *parody of Backstreet Boys*, I found this term from one of tumblr user but I forget the name.. hehehehe... XD

S1. Can you guess what? – Everyone

Yeah, the opening song of Blade Steel Boys’s live concert.. Hahahahaha.. XD. Because the sword boys had transform into an idol group, let’s dance together! XD. IMO, this song is in disco style but has rock tune. Yeah, I like this song, makes me wanna dance. Their harmony is good and powerful.

S2. Jackal – Everyone

Another disco style song. I like this song too, but honestly, for me this song sounds like K-pop style. I like Oota Motohiro’s solo part, well, his voice is the best in this song. And... the coreography, actually Sengo Muramasa’s part, is little bit... errr... I don’t really like it.. berasa liat banci kaleng beneran.. .__.

S3. Nameless Fighter - Nikkari Aoe, Ookurikara

Still disco style song.. :3 I like this song, but for me Araki Hirofumi’s voice and Zaiki Takuma’s voice doesn’t match well, their harmony is little bit messy. And the chorus I think it’s better if it was powerful because, for me, the chorus part is so weak. But for me, Araki Hirofumi’s vocal is better here than when he sang in Kuroshitsuji Musical (Araki was Lau’s actor in Kuroshitsuji Musical).

S4. Don’t worry, don’t worry - Ishikirimaru, Monoyoshi Sadamune

This is the cheerful song and sounds like a children song. I don’t know why, but I think this song has the same atmosphere with Takaramono and EOEOA song from Toumyu Trial/Atsukashiyama Ibun. I like this song but I don’t like Yokota Ryogi’s vocal, and Tsubasa’s voice doesn’t match well with this song.

S5. Real Love – Tonbokiri

Hmmm... first time I listened to this song, I feel nostalgic. For me, this style of song is like 90’s boyband style such as Westlife, Backstreet Boys, N’Sync, etc *ketahuan dah tuir*. And Spi’s voice really matches with this song very well, hahahahaha.. yeah, his voice reminds me to those boyband.. XD. Well, no wonder because he’s not pure Japanese, even his real name is like a duke I think, William Worthington Spearman IV,.. hahahahaha.. XD

S6. Yuuyami - Everyone

The most calm song in this live performance. The sword boys appear from the middle of the audiences. In this song, I can heard that they a bit tired because their vocal weakened and the harmony is quite messy, but they had to keep perform till the end. I don’t really like this song, and I fall asleep easily when I listened to this song.. haha.. XD

S7. Kanki no Hana - Everyone

The Otokomichi song! Hahahaha.. XD. Well, like the previous musicals, there is taiko performance before the otokomichi part. And, of course the sword boys take their clothes off.. hahahahahaha.. pamer roti sobek euy.. XD, and OMG, Araki’s back is so flawless! XD. But, for me, Kitazono Ryo/Kogitsunemaru is still the hottest and the sexiest.. hahahaha.. XD.

Well, I like this song too, but Otokomichi is still my favorite. This song is not as powerful as Otokomichi, and in the middle intro, it sounds weird because the music is like Middle East music style, and the coreography is like they do purifying ritual *mungkin habis belajar ruqyah sama papa Ishi*. For the coreography, for me, Otokomichi Atsukashiyama version is the best and the manliest. XD

Yeah, that’s all my thought about the songs in this musical. Overall, it’s better than previous musicals. Well, for the outfit, my favorite is Nikkari’s and Ishikrimaru’s outfit. When I look at Monoyoshi’s outfit, well, I think I look Finnian wearing Ciel’s clothes.. haha.. Monoyoshi really looks like Finnian for me + his cheerful personality too.. XD.

Yeah, that’s all I can say for this musical. Sorry for my bad English. Critic and suggestion are welcome. See you next post. ^_^.

Review Kalafina’s Single: Hyakka Ryouran

Assalamu’alaikum... Konnichiwa..!! ^_^

Hello. I post Kalafina’s single review again! Hahahahaha.. Now I post the new released single, Hyakka Ryouran. This single was released on August 9th, 2017. This single consists of 6 tracks, 3 full songs, 2 instruments, and 1 song in TV size, and I just review the full songs and the music video. As long as I know, Kalafina releases new single as their song is used as the soundtrack of anime or another TV program. Well, like this one too which is used as the ending theme of anime Katsugeki Touken Ranbu. So, let’s check this out.

Hyakka Ryouran

This is the main song of this single that used as ending theme for Katsugeki Touken Ranbu. First time I listened to this song is when I watch the PV of Katsugeki used this song as background music. At first, I thought that this song is the second version of Parallel Heart song because the chorus sounds so similar, event the other fans called this song as Parallel Heart 2.0. After listened to the whole song, well, this song is pretty different with Parallel Heart eventhough the chorus is similar.

This song is so cool and beautiful. This song matches well with the anime. Sounds like the combination between ethnic, rock, and opera style. I love the sound of flute and drum in this song. The harmony is beautiful as usual, but unfortunately Wakana’s voice is rather weak, not as powerful as before. My favorite part in this song is the Kajiura-go, yeah, the Kajiuran part is sung by Remi. Hahahahahahaha...

The music video is cool too, Wakana is so beautiful here. She’s like a princess. \(>o<)/. The MV is in red and purple nuance, looks so magical. I like the costume style but I think that Hikaru’s costume would look better with skirt. I also think that the MV would look cooler if the actors from Tousute and Toumyu appear in it, or make another MV version with the Touken Danshi. :3

Kantankatan

The second track. This is my favorite track in this single. This song is so beautiful and calming. I love the strings in this song. In my opinion, this song sounds more ethnical than the Hyakka Ryouran. The harmony is better than Hayakka Ryouran, I think. Wakana’s vocal sounds better than in the previous one and matches so well with this song. I think that Wakana’s voice is very suitable ballad and mellow song. There is no Kajiura-go in this song. Overall, this song is the most beautiful in this single. Hahahahahaha... XD

Tonbo

The third track. At first I think this song is for Tonbokiri’s theme, but it’s not because of the word ‘Tonbo”, ahahahaha.. XD. This song has the same style with Haru wo Matsu from single Marchen. Kalafina just sing their own part, except Wakana’s part. Wakana has the least part and her part is harmonized by Keiko, but I think it’s the most beautiful part. This song is only accompanied by piano. This song is so calm and makes me sleepy when I listened to it. Very good as lullaby for those who have insomnia.... hahahahahaha.. XD *slap*  

Overall, in my opinion, this is the coolest single and my favorite too. Hahahaha.. because I like all songs in this single. Usually, there is one or two songs I don’t like in each Kalafina’s albums and singles, but in this single, I like the whole single. I don’t know why or how, but feels like there is something different in this single rather than the previous albums and singles. Well, good job Yuki Kajiura sensei and Kalafina. Ok, that’s all my review about Kalafina’s single Hyakka Ryouran.

See you next post! ^_^

Review Kalafina’s Single: into the world/Marchen

Assalamualaikum... Konnichiwa..!!

Hello, I’m back to post review about Kalafina’s single titled Marchen. This single was released on last April. This single consists of four tracks, 3 full songs and 1 instrument and 2 songs in this single have music video. I just review about the full songs and the music video, not the instrument. Let’s check this out.

Into the world

This is the first track. This song is used as theme song of a TV series titled Rekishi Hiwa Historia. As far as I know, this TV series often use Kalafina’s songs and Yuki Kajiura’s work as their theme song. This song is beautiful and sounds so peaceful. For the vocal harmonization, yeah, still as beautiful as before. When I listened to this song, somehow I think that this song is little bit similar with Kimi no Gin no Niwa, and get the same feeling as I listened to Yume no Daichi. I also like the music video. The MV is opened with the view of a beach and the Kalafina sing at the beach and then the video moved the setting into a house. In the house scene, the MV looks so classic and beautiful. Kalafina also look so elegant, especially Wakana, she really looks like a noble lady. I love the dress they wear, but I don’t like the blazer, they look better without the blazer, it makes them look like old business women.. hahahaha.. :D

Marchen

The second track. This song is my favorite in this single. This song is also used as ending theme for anime OVA Zaregoto series titled Kubikiri Cycle: Aoiro Savant to Zaregototsukai. This OVA has 8 episodes but episode 7 and 8 are delayed, and Yuki Kajiura also do the background music for this anime. I think this song is unique, sounds like the combination between ethnic, classic, and rock. This song has the gothic and dark feeling, maybe because the story of  Zaregoto anime is dark too. I like the flute sound, and it mix very well with the electric guitar that makes this songs sounds dark. It feels like I’m in the dark fairytale when I listened to it, well Marchen means fairytale in German. I love Hikaru’s vocal in this song, yeah, her vocal is suitable very well for songs in rock tune, dark type, and fast paced. The music video is also in the dark nuance, Kalafina sing in the dark, empty, and abandoned buliding. hahahahaha.. The video looks creepy but beautiful too, well the dolls and candles makes the video look creepy. :D

itu Wakana yak, bukan setan.. wkwkwkwk.. *geplaked*

anime Zaregoto.

Haru wo Matsu

The third track. This song is ballad song. For the vocal, rather than for group, I prefer call this song as individual song because there is no vocal harmonization. Kalafina just sing their own part one by one. For me, this song makes me feel so sleepy when I listened to it, hahahaha.. so I usually listen to this song when I get insomnia.. hahahaha.. XD.

Ok. That’s all my review about Kalafina’s single this time. Overall, this single is recommended for you who like songs with unique style and beautiful harmony. Sorry for bad language and grammar error. Thank you and see you next post. ^_^

Review Touken Ranbu Musical Atsukashiyama Ibun (Musical Performance and Live Concert)

Assalamu’alaikum...!!! Konnichiwa minna-san..!!! I’m back! Balik ngeblog lagi setelah lama gak ngeblog gegara bingung mau ngepost apa dan juga emang gue lagi males sih.. hahahahaha.. *geplaked.

Kali ini gue mau ngepost review Touken Ranbu Musical Atsukashiyama Ibun. Sebelumnya gue udah pernah ngepost review Touken Ranbu Musical Trial Performance. Sebenernya baik yang Trial Performance dan Atsukashiyama Ibun sama aja ceritanya, tapi gue putuskan untuk review lagi karena di review sebelumnya gue cuma review lagu-lagunya gegara gue gak ngerti ceritanya. Di post ini gue bakal review gak cuma berdasarkan lagunya, tapi juga ceritanya dan sekaligus review live concert-nya juga. Kali ini gue bisa review berdasarkan ceritanya karena ada yang ngasih subtitle-nya jadi gue bisa ngerti jalan ceritanya.. huehehehehehe... :3

Gue dapet Touken Ranbu Atsukashiyama Ibun ini dah pasti hasil donlot. Awalnya gue kesel banget gegara susah banget nemunya, eh, setelah bersabar dan ubek-ubek gugel sekian lama gue nemu seseorang di dunia maya yang berbaik hati ngasih gue link donlot drama musikal ini, gak cuma Touken Ranbu, tapi juga drama panggung yang lain kaya Kuroshitsuji dll. Ahahahahaha... senangnya hatiku.. XD. Oke, udah ah curcolnya. Kita lanjut ke review.

Touken Ranbu Atsukashiyama Ibun ini gak ada perubahan casts, aktor-aktornya masih aktor-aktor yang di Trial Performance. Atsukashiyama Ibun ceritanya tentang pertempuran Atsukashiyama antara Minamoto no Yoshitsune dengan Minamoto no Yoritomo, kakaknya, dan Fujiwara Yasuhira, dibantu oleh Musashibo Benkei, pengawal setia Yoshitsune. Sebenernya gue gak terlalu ngerti tentang sejarah Jepang sih dan gue juga gak penah mainin game-nya, jadi review ini cuma berdasarkan pemahaman gue atas ceritanya aja. Di drama musikal ini si Imanotsurugi dan Iwatooshi jadi tokoh sentral karena Minamoto no Yoshitsune adalah pemilik Imanotsurugi dan Iwatooshi adalah pedangnya Musashibou Benkei, pengawal setianya Yoshitsune.

Ceritanya diawali dengan detik-detik akhir pertempuran Atsukashiyama di mana Yoshitsune melakukan seppuku alias bunuh diri kemudian dilanjutkan dengan kemunculan enam pedang ganteng yang nyanyi Touken Ranbu sambil nebas-nebas pedang*?*. Beres nyanyi, dek Kashuu masuk dan dikasih tau sama masternya kalo ada tugas karena kemunculan pasukan perevisi skripsi eh sejarah *kirain cuma skripsi yang ada revisi*. Dia juga dikasih tau siapa aja yang bakal ditugasin bareng Kashuu dan dia ditunjuk jadi ketua kelompok. Awalnya Kashuu protes pas tau siapa aja yang ditugasin, tapi apa boleh buat, perintah dosen eh master gak boleh dibantah. *gegara ada kata revisi ingetnya jadi ke kenangan masa skripsi mulu*.

Cerita langsung diskip aja ke bagian pas si Imanotsurugi dikasih tau lokasi tugasnya. Si Imanotsurugi langsung pucat terdiam seribu bahasa begitu tau tugasnya di Atsukashiyama. Dia langsung teringat masa lalu yang begitu menyakitkan *hoekz!*. Imanotsurgi berniat merubah sejarah gegara gak mau tuannya mati, dia ngerasa gagal melindungi Yoshitsune di masa lalu. Dia diingetin ama Iwatooshi dkk kalo gak boleh merubah sejarah tapi si Imanotsurugi keukeuh wae. Di sisi lain, ternyata musuh udah bergerak duluan dengan cara membocorkan rencana pembunuhan Yoritomo terhadap Yoshitsune. Yoshitsune yang berdasarkan sejarah udah mati, gak jadi mati. Imanotsurugi pun nekat pergi menemui Yoshitsune dan berniat gak akan membiarkan Yoshitsune mati dan merubah sejarahnya. Pada akhirnya Imanotsurugi pun sadar kalo itu justru kesalahan terbesar yang dia buat pas ngelihat Yoshitsune ternyata dirasuki musuh dan berubah jadi monster gitu, dan teman-temannya kewalahan ngadepin musuh. Di saat-saat terakhir akhirnya Imanotsurugi dan Iwatooshi berubah ke mode hisatsu yang pamer otot-otot roti sobek dan musuh pun berhasil dikalahkan, sejarah akhirnya revisi ulang dan kembali ke jalan yang bener.. XD

Di Atsukashiyama Ibun ini juga ada bagian komedinya. Di awal munculnya Mikazuki dan Kogitsunemaru masih sama kaya yang di Trial Performance, bawa-bawa cangkul dan si Jiji gak tau cara pake cangkul. Kalo di Trial-nya si Jiji maen kuda-kudaan, di Atsukashiyama cangkulnya dijadiin bantal ama si Jiji, dan tetep lebay gaya nyangkulnya pas udah dikasih tau si Kogi.

Selain itu adegan pas Kashuu nongol buat ngumpulin anggota kelompoknya,ternyata gak ada orang, trus si Jiji nongol bawa-bawa teh dan kue, ngeteh deh dengan santainya. Ngerasa dicuekin, Kashuu ngadu ke si Kogi, eh si kogi malah asik nyisir rambut *mungkin dia pengen jadi duta sampo Pantene kaya Anggun*, trus balik nyamperin Mikazuki dan makan kuenya si Jiji. Trus, Iwatooshi nongol ngegendong Imanotsurugi, dan Ishikirimaru gak nongol, yang nongol cuma suaranya yang ngerapalin mantra pembersihan, sampe ditarik ama Kashuu saking gregetannya, intinya gak ada yang normal dan gak ada yang peduliin Kashuu. Kasian deh Kashuu dicuekin..

Menurut gue Atsukashiyama Ibun ini lumayan banyak perubahan dari Trial Performance, jalan ceritanya sih sama aja, cuma gaya dialognya berubah dan ada tambahan lagu, jadi durasinya juga jadi lebih panjang. Dan di post ini gue cuma ngebahas lagu tambahan aja karena lagu yang lain tu sama aja dan udah di bahas di post sebelumnya.

Oke, sekarang gue mau bahas lagu-lagunya.

Utakata no Komoriuta

Ini lagu tambahan yang pertama. Lagu ini dinyanyikan oleh Kogitsunemaru/Ryo Kitazono dan Ishikirimaru/Sakiyama Tsubasa. Lagu ini pas sebelum adegan Mikazuki, Kogitsunemaru, dan Ishikrimaru duduk bertiga malem-malem ngegosipin Yoshitsune dan Benkei. Bisa dibilang ini lagu nina bobo, soalnya gue bawaannya ngantuk kalo denger lagu ini, dan si Jiji juga keluar bilangnya mau tidur abis denger lagu ini. Lagu ini mellow banget dan ceritanya tentang tidur malem-malem dipeluk kegelapan*?*. Si Jiji/Kuroba Mario gak ikutan nyanyi di lagu ini tapi dia jadi penari latarnya. Musiknya perpaduan piano sama musik tradisional Jepang yang biasa dipake buat tarian di kuil-kuil gitu kaya yang biasa gue lihat di film ato anime. Gue suka lagu ini tapi bikin gue pelor a.k.a nempel molor kalo denger ni lagu.

Mujun To Iu Na No Tsubomi

Lagu ini dinyanyikan oleh Kashuu/Ryuji Sato dan Ishikirimaru/Sakiyama Tsubasa. Kalo menurut gue sih ini dialog yang dilagukan, soalnya Kashuu dan Ishikirimaru saling berbalas gitu nyanyinya, dan lagu ini tentang perasaan akan kehidupan mereka pas masih jadi pedang dan pas udah jadi cowok ganteng. Lagu ini juga jadi momen baikannya Kashuu dan Ishikirimaru yang sempet berdebat setelah pertempuran yang mengakibatkan Imanotsurugi terluka. Musiknya didominasi piano dan cello *kalo gue gak salah denger*, dan lagu ini juga mellow tapi gak semellow yang Utakata no Komoriuta. Dan buat gue ni lagu juga bikin ngantuk.

Oboeteiru

Ini lagu sama aja kaya yang Mujun to iu na no tsubomi, dialog yang dilaguin. Lagu ini isinya perdebatan antara Imanotsurugi dengan anggota lainnya pas mau bunuh Yoshitsune yang udah berubah jadi monster. Di awal lagu musiknya lumayan rock gitu trus lanjut jadi musik orkestra dan akhirnya jadi paduan gitar rock dengan orkestra seperti musik yang biasa dijadiin backsoun adegan perang, ya emang lagu ini pas mau perang sih di dramanya juga. Vokalnya agak berantakan menurut gue tapi emosinya dapet, mungkin karena mereka baper dan lelah ngadepin musuh, jadi ya gitu deh...

Overall, Atsukashiyama Ibun ini menurut gue gak jauh beda sama yang Trial Performance dari segi penampilannya. Acting para aktornya menurut gue cukup bagus, emosinya juga lumayan dapet. Untuk kualitas vokal pas nyanyi sih awal-awal menurut gue bagus, lebih baik dari yang Trial Performance, tapi untuk lagu Oboeteiru dan Kimi no Uta, keliatan banget kalo aktor-aktornya pada lelah soalnya menurut gue vokalnya agak berantakan, terutama Iwatooshi/Saeki Daichi dan Imanotsurugi/Ohira Shunya, suara mereka serak-serak gimana gitu. Vokalnya yang paling bagus dan stabil menurut gue tetep Mikazuki/Kuroba Mario, mungkin juga karena dia emang gak terlalu banyak pecicilan *yaiyalah aki-aki pecicilan entar encoknya kumat*ditendang*. Dari segi gaya dialog gue lebih suka yang di Trial Performance, entah kalo yang di Atsukashiyama Ibun ini dialognya menurut gue kaya ada yang kurang dapet gitu emosinya. Kalo bagian pertempurannya, gue lebih suka yang Atsukashiyama Ibun, adegan perangnya lumayan maknyuss menurut gue, konflik batinnya juga dapet banget.

Oia, di drama panggung ini sebagian musik background-nya pake yang original dari game-nya *gue tau sedikit karena pernah denger musiknya pas lihat temen gue pas mainin game-nya*. Trus gue lihat bajunya Mikazuki robek pas bagian jahitan lengannya pas adegan ngayunin pedangnya. Karena robeknya pas jahitan lengannya, jadi ya bisalah pas ada kesempatan di benerin dulu ala kadarnya. Hehehehe...

Yah, bisa dibilang Atsukashiyama Ibun ini adalah edisi revisi dari Trial Performance, namanya aja Trial Performance, masih coba-coba, melihat sejauh mana minat masyarakat terhadap adaptasi panggung dari game Touken Ranbu ini. Ibarat kalo skripsi tu ya Atsukashiyama Ibun ini skripsi yang udah fix dan ditanda tangani ama dosen pembimbing dan penguji*plak!*ni kenapa jadi nyambung ke skripsi lagi?*. Intinya sih Atsukashiyama Ibun ini keren deh dan gue bisa lihatin aktor-aktornya yang ganteng. Hahahahahahaha... XD

Sekarang beralih ke bagian live concert. Seperti di Trial Performance, beres aksi drama panggungnya, mereka berubah jadi boyband Bladesteel Boys yang siap menghibur anda sekalian. Ahahahahaha... XD. Di live concert ini lagu-lagu yang ditampilkan berbeda dari yang di Trial Performance, dan gue bahas sat per satu walaupun ada lagu yang sama, tetep bakal gue bahas secara singkat.

ini foto pas mereka mau tampil di acara Music Japan NHK

Mistake

Seperti di Trial Performance, lagu Mistake ini jadi lagu pembuka konser hanya saja dinyanyikan dengan gaya yang agak berbeda. Kalo gue sih lebih suka yang versi Trial Performance soalnya power vokal mereka lebih kuat daripada yang Atsukashiyama Ibun. Lagu ini ada bagian bahasa Inggrisnya, tapi ya.. tau sendirilah.. gue salah interpretasiin gegara banyak yang mispronunciation.

Egaiteita Mirai he

Lagu kedua ini tipe lagu boyband yang lumayan ngerock. Alunan gitar elektriknya asik banget, lagu boyband rasa rock band. Hahahahaha.. Tapi lagi-lagi gue kaya ngerasa familiar sama melodi lagu ini tapi gue gak inget lagu apa gitu yang melodinya mirip, persis kaya kasus lagu kedua yang di Trial Performance, hanya saja gue ngerasa familiarnya tu gegara alunan gitarnya doanx.

EOEOA

Lagu ketiga ini tipe lagu santai. Menurut gue, lagu EOEOA ini ada sedikit sentuhan gaya reggae gitu, dan asik gitu buat didengerin di perjalanan kalo pergi-pergi. Dengerin lagu EOEOA ini gue berasa kaya anak kecil lagi belajar abjad gegara pas nyebutin Eoeoa eoeoa eoeoa eoeoa, jadi inget lagunya boyben bocah tanggung yang eaaaaa... Lagu ini dinyanyikan Iwatooshi, Imanotsurugi, Ishikirimaru, dan Kogitsunemaru. Pas nyanyi lagu ini mereka berempat berinteraksi ngajak penonton buat ikutin gerakan tangan pas nyebutin EOEOA, gerakan tangannya ngebentuk huruf EOEOA gitu, ngeliatnya gue jadi inget pas diajarin temen gue bahasa isyarat huruf-huruf alfabet.

Endless Night

Ini lagu solonya Mikazuki Munechika/Kuroba Mario. Ini lagu mellow banget, trus menurut gue di sini si Jiji jadi agak kemayu gimana gitu. Di lagu ini power vokalnya Kuroba Mario agak lemah, pas nada tinggi kaya agak kecekik gimana gitu, ya tapi menurut gue vokalnya Kuroba Mario emang untuk nada bariton – bass *sebenernya gue gak terlalu ngerti tentang pembagian vokal cowok, so cmiiww*.

Tokenai Mahou

Lagu ini udah pernah gue bahas di post sebelumnya, jadi gue cuma komentar soal kualitas vokalnya Kashuu/Ryuji Sato. Vokalnya Ryuji di lagu ini gak sekuat yang di Trial Performance, pas nada tinggi dia kaya kecekik gitu, dan suaranya jadi serak kaya lagi radang tenggorokan. Meurut gue, penampilannya Ryuji pas nyanyi lagu ini masih lebih bagus yang  di Trial Performance.

Love Story

Ini bukan lagunya Taylor Swift, ini lagunya Bladesteel Boys judulnya doanx yang sama.. XD. Hahahahaha... pas liat pertama kali lihat judul lagunya, yang ada di pikiran gue malah Love Story-nya Taylor Swift. Cerita lagu ini ya cerita cinta, judulnya aja love story, tapi yang pasti gak kaya love story-nya Taylor Swift yang romeo dan juliet itu. Dari terjemahan lagunya, yang gue tangkep sih ini bisa dibilang kisah kenangan mantan, soalnya di lagu ini tentang cowok yang lagi inget-inget kisah bersama pacarnya dulu. Intinya ini lagu kenangan tentang mantan. XD

Berbeda dari Trial Performance, di lagu Mabataki, para aktor muncul di tengah-tengah penonton, kalo di lagu ini mereka nyamperin para penonton, bahkan si Iwatooshi nyamperin ke lantai 2. Trus, gue iri ama cewek yang disamperin Mikazuki, di situ dia kaya lagi nembak cewek gitu, dan pastilah tu cewek jadi salting dan yang laen pada histeris. Kalo si Ishikirimaru, dia minjem semacem kipas gitu dari salah satu penonton dan ngelakuin ritual pembersiha pake tu kipas, dasar gak modal tu Ishikirimaru *ditendang*. Setelah itu, kaya di Trial performance, tim taiko muncul tapi Kogitsunemaru gak ikutan muncul buat solo dance, cuma backdancer doanx. Setelah itu baru enam pedang ganteng itu muncul bersamaan dan pastinya pake acara buka baju pamer badan roti sobek nan sekseh.

Otokomichi

Ini nih lagu yang bikin mereka buka baju, hahahahahaha... XD. Kualitas vokal mereka di lagu ini masih sekuat yang di Trial Performance, cuma entah kenapa buat gue, di bagian lirik ‘tsumugu aienkien’, suara si Ryuji Sato jadi mengganggu di lagu ini, vokalnya gak nyatu sama vokal yang lainnya. Dah gitu doanx.

Penutupan dari penampilan ini masih sama kaya di Trial Performance, hanya saja penampilan dari tim taiko, prajurit, pasukan revisi, dan penari latar dibuat jadi lebih dramatis. Menurut gue, kualitas vokal enam pedang ganteng ini secara keseluruhan menurun dari penampilan mereka di Trial Performance. Gue juga baru sadar kalo range suara mereka hampir sama, yaitu antara bariton – bass. Paduan suara mereka emang bagus, tapi gak ada pembagian suara 1 dan suara 2, jadi walaupun nyanyi berenam, suaranya cuma satu *gue pernah ikutan tim paduan suara jadi sedikit tau tentang pembagian suara pas nyanyi*. Hahahahaha... gegara sering dengerin paduan suara dari Sound Horizon terutama dari tim Harmonia, Kalafina, dan FictionJunction, gue jadi ngebandingin sama yang Touken Danshi nih, padahal beda banget range suara cewek dan cowok. Yah, tapi gue emang lebih suka paduan suara yang ada pembagian suara 1 suara 2, nada tinggi, sedang, dan rendah gitu, contohnya Kalafina, yang nyanyi cuma bertiga, tapi ada pembagian suara tinggi, sedang, dan rendah karena jenis vokalnya yang berbeda satu sama lain.

Yak itu aja review gue tentang Touken Ranbu Musical Atsukashiyama Ibun *panjang banget fiuuuwwhh..*. Mohon maaf kalo review-nya masih berantakan, bahasanya kacau, dan ada yang gak sesuai. Gue juga bakal ngepost review Touken Ranbu Stage Play, sama-sama adaptasi dari game Touken Ranbu, tapi beda produksi dan sutradaranya. Gue juga pengen review Touken Ranbu Musical yang Bakumatsu Tenrouden tapi belom ada, lagian yang BakuTen juga baru minggu-minggu kemaren kelar pentas. Banyak sih yang mau gue review, tapi entar deh kalo sempet. Hehehehehe... Oke, udah dulu ah, capek ngetik nih gue.

See you next post! ^_^
