Anison Choose 10 songs that herald the arrival of a new era! Hiroyuki Deguchi’s “Silently listen to anime songs! In 2020 Autumn”
November 29, 2020 11:00t640_883869.jpg
Hello to all 10 million anime fans nationwide. I’m Hiroyuki Deguchi, a bassist and DJ specializing in anime songs and special effects songs.
Around the time when new anime works were broadcast every season, the time for “Silently listen to anime songs!”, Which is familiar from the column that is too subjective to come from nowhere, has come to an end. This is the fall 2020 issue, the last update of the year.
I’m sure some of you will be reading this for the first time, so please give a brief explanation of this column again.
Listen to all the opening and ending songs of the anime works that are broadcast every cool, select 10 songs with the great subjectivity of my exit, and explain the super cool points of each song with complete subjectivity.
I’m sure there are opinions such as “I don’t have that song!” And “I haven’t put this song in! I’ll try again!” I would appreciate it if you could feel free to read it.
This year was a year in which not only the anime industry but the entire society and the world were hit hard by the new coronavirus. It’s still in the midst of turmoil, and there are no signs of an end.
From spring to summer, the whole society was in turmoil, and TV animation was an abnormal situation where only about half the number of works was broadcast, but maybe the production system was rebuilt, now the cool is almost as usual. The number of works of is being broadcast. However, the situation has not improved, and the number of infected people has begun to increase again as winter approaches.
Is it an anime in such a difficult time? Some people may think that, but on the contrary, because of this situation, I watch anime and listen to anime songs so that I don’t feel sick. Illness is a common illness, and when you run out of space in your mind, you become exhausted both physically and mentally. Before that happens, I hope that I can spend my time in good health by watching anime, listening to anime songs, and doing the same things as usual.
So, rather than the anime in the fall of 2020, I will select 10 songs from this season’s anime works when I mentioned the impression of the whole 2020!
I was worried because I had a good set of songs this term! I would appreciate it if you could read it while thinking “I’m worried (laughs)” including such circumstances!

・ Half-Yousha Princess Yasha
ED “Break / Uru”
・ Mysterious candy store Sentendo
OP “Please have a mysterious fantasy / Aimi Noda”
・ Incompetent Nana
ED “Called Bakemono / Chiai Fujikawa”
This time, the ratio of OP songs and ED songs is about 50%. Every song has a point that makes me feel awkward, so it was difficult to make a prompt decision as “this is it!” In the fall of 2020. Although the selection theme was almost undecided, I think that the songs with a neat arrangement with a small number of instrument sounds were prepared.
Now let’s get into the explanation of each song.
・ Is it wrong to ask for an encounter in a dungeon? III
ED “Evergreen / sajou no hana”

It is no exaggeration to say that sajou no hana is leading the current anime and anime song scene. This song also has a sophisticated melody line and arrangement that can be said to be the “latest anime song of the present.” Recently, anime songs (not limited to music in general) are breaking away from the sound image that sounds like a wall, or thinning out the sound as much as possible to build a deep sound image with the minimum number of instruments. A sound image like a wall is also a great answer as an arrangement method, and it is not a bad arrangement at all, but since it may give an impression that the listening taste is similar, I feel like eating (at least I) recently. It’s very convincing to hear the thinning arrangements. I get a strong impression that “Evergreen” is calculated and arranged.
I think it is a cutting-edge anime song and at the same time a cutting-edge Japanese music.
・ Akudama Drive
OP “STEAL !! / SPARK !! SOUND !! SHOW !!”

The band “Susashi” or “SPARK !! SOUND !! SHOW !!”, which people who like music with quick ears will already be paying close attention to.
The sound of overwhelming energy and tension bursting is exciting to hear that it is a live band of Hyakusen Renma. Although it has a high tension, the true value of this band lies in its advanced sound design, which is the opposite of pushing it out with such momentum. If you listen carefully, you can see that the sounds are carefully selected and the sounds are thinned out to create a three-dimensional arrangement. I clearly feel a strong intention in how to use and insert sound effects. The band’s magic is to accidentally create a miracle-like ensemble, but it is also the band’s magic to intentionally build an ensemble and create a miracle.
The sound of Susashi is full of band wonders.
・ Incompetent Nana
ED “Called Bakemono / Chiai Fujikawa”

The solid band sound with a low center of gravity, which is typical of a rock band, gives an impression different from other anime songs and is wonderfully cool. The band sound is the core of the song, but it is definitely the presence of Chiai Fujikawa’s vocals. I think it’s an overwhelming advantage to have a voice with a solid bass while there are many vocals with a high range that can be missed. Anyone can make a high voice if they train. Along with muscle training, the upper range gradually comes out. However, low voices are very difficult to train and produce compared to high frequencies. A clean, low-pitched voice is a lump of talent by itself, as it is greatly influenced by the nature of the body, especially the throat.
The part to be suppressed sinks sharply, and the part to the peak rises to penetrate. It’s one of the basics in arranging music, but it’s quite difficult to put it into practice perfectly. I think this song is able to follow that methodology almost perfectly.
・ That is the bottleneck

ED “That’s the only neck / Uchikubigokumon club”

It is no exaggeration to say that the most notable anime songs are appointed every season. This season, rock fans will be familiar with the Uchikubigokumon Club. I think there were many fans who grinned without thinking of their word choice.
Basically, anime songs (not limited to the theme songs of approximate video works) are made to fit in 90 seconds. The so-called first chorus includes the origination and transition of songs that are linked to anime works, but in short animation, the time is given to the songs only about 30 seconds due to the shortness of the broadcast scale. However, this shortness is not a demerit, but it is very interesting that it is the biggest weapon of “impact that you can remember with one shot when you listen to it”.
The arrangement that builds up and explodes from the introduction with restraint can feel the dynamics of the band even in 30 seconds, and the high playing power of the band is also transmitted. There is certainly some fun in the story, but this fun is a “funny” backed by overwhelming skills.
・ The man picked up by the gods
ED “BLUE ROSE knows / MindaRyn”

There were anime songs featuring band sounds this term as well, but among them, “BLUE ROSE knows” is particularly straightforward, and each instrument creates a pleasant ensemble while interacting with each part. The mainstream of these days is that the number of musical instruments tends to increase, but the neat arrangement that makes it possible to understand all the sounds that are ringing is still strong. If you are new to musical instruments or bands, you may want to use this song as a model.
The drums that form the basis of the rhythm, the guitar that enriches the ensemble with chord work and arpeggios, and the driving bass that plays the leading role in the ensemble in this song. Each part is a model play, and especially the bass is solo, so you should definitely listen to the bassist.
If you look closely, I knew the bassist of this song! I’m so happy!
・ Mysterious candy store Sentendo
OP “Please have a mysterious fantasy / Aimi Noda”

It’s a song I really like in the middle of jazz, cabaret, and Showa Kayo. In this column, this type of song-like anime song is always selected, so of course I chose it without hesitation.
Good. It’s a great song! If you like it too much and be careful, it will be just an impression. There is no esoteric impression at all, even though it has been given a high degree of musical arrangement such as complicated chord work derived from jazz, where the way of taking beats changes for each section, but rather it strongly feels popular. The craftsman’s sense of balance that makes it easy to listen to very difficult things without thinking that it is difficult is wonderful. These parts are common to songs that incorporate jazz, cabaret music, and Showa Kayo, so I always select them. A good song again!
・ It’s fun to keep both dogs and cats every day
ED “Nyanda Wanda Days / Ayaka Ohashi”

I’m very sorry for my personal affairs, but I have two cats (Tsukune-chan and Oimo-kun), and I don’t have a dog, but I feel that this work and this song are not someone else’s affairs. What do you call it, it’s cute! Cats (and dogs)! That’s why I chose it. that’s all!
That’s too much, so a little more. Of course, the selection is based on the wonderfulness and goodness of the music (naturally).
Based on funk soul, the glittering tone part that seems to be an anime song colors the song. It has a taste that seems to be a recent anime song, and if you listen carefully, you should be aware of the latest EDM context. A glittering world view that follows the genre of “Kawaii Future Bass,” which is a development of Future Bass. Not only is it girly, but there is also a section where the groove sinks properly, and from these parts you can see that the composition of the song is based on EDM manners.
・ Half-Yousha Princess Yasha
ED “Break / Uru”

Even though it is a whispering vocalization, the singing voice with a thick core and a deep lingering sound has an unforgettable impact once you hear it. While the anime songs of this term tend to thin out the number of sounds to build a three-dimensional sound image, I think that this song is outstandingly good at creating the sound image and sound field around it. When Uru’s singing voice rides on the hard and inorganic beats peculiar to techno and electronica, it is wonderful that it instantly transforms into a dynamic organic beat. It’s a song that I want to pay attention to the expressive power that makes me feel sad even though it is powerful and positive.
・ Fly Me to the Moon
OP “Koi no Uta (feat. Yuzaki Tsukasa) / Yuzaki Tsukasa (CV. Akari Kito)”

Contrary to the straight title, it is a terrifyingly sophisticated song. Insanely good. All the elements are made with a new feeling of the present era, and I think that the possibilities of anime songs in the future have been greatly expanded. The sense of combining the latest EDM, Future Bass, with Japanese-style scales and timbres is amazing. It’s the opposite of the so-called “easy-to-understand anime song”, so to speak, it’s a song that doesn’t look like a traditional anime song, but for some reason it has an outstanding affinity with anime, and the matching with the work is perfect.
After 2020, Future Bass like this song and Kawaii Future Bass will become the mainstream of EDM anime songs. “Koi no Uta (feat. Yuzaki Tsukasa)” has a strong persuasive power to the extent that it can be asserted. I think it’s no exaggeration to say that the paradigm shift of EDM anime songs is happening here.
・ Jujutsu Kaisen
OP “Kaikai Kitan / Eve”

The last is the opening song “Jujutsu Kaisen” of “Jujutsu Kaisen”
Personally recommended song for the fall of 2020. Well, it’s straight and cool. Jagged solid sound image, technical arrangement, high tone vocals. Writing this way seems to be a characteristic of the recent band from around 2010, but it has an overwhelming originality that the chord work and melody line surpasses others. In particular, the rust seems to be an arrangement that pushes through with momentum, and the actual fashionable and advanced ensemble is constructed. I get the impression that the way of adjusting the speed is not good or that level, but that the connection between music and emotions is controlled from a more bird’s-eye view. it’s great.
I think it’s a song that will serve as a guide for the band in the future.
That’s all for the selection of 10 anime songs in the fall of 2020!
Since 2020, when we listened to a lot of anime songs and selected a lot of anime songs, will be over, we will hold a meeting with BAN BAN BAN Samejima Ichirokusan to look back on this year’s anime songs, which has become an annual event at the end of the year.
This year’s event is like this, but we will jump out of the conference room and hold a talk event at the cutting-edge base, Naked Loft! Since there is a possibility that it will be affected by the corona in terms of timing, we will also deliver it at the same time. If you have difficulty participating in the field, we would appreciate it if you could consider viewing there.
Both I and Mr. Samejima can play musical instruments, so I’d like to play this year’s anime song together on the day, so please look forward to it too!
There are important guidelines for holding an event, so it’s a good idea to read the event details carefully!
Please look forward to the last anime song talk event this year!
