That's 1 thing about AOT In combat you loose people. People are squishy Life is fragile. I'm not usually an anime fan but that show caught my attention. MInd you .. Levie and mikasa OP!
i think the aaddest part was "remember the day of grief, now its strange for me" hes so ruined by his loss and all the death he cant mourn much anymore
Levi was not a lonely soul. He fought for Isabel and Farlan, he fought for Erwin, he fought for his squad, he had Hanji and the brats. Strenght comes from love, lonelyness gets you nowhere
Actually the most painful thing to think about when listening to this song is the people that were left behind. The living are the ones suffering the most. Just like Levi. The burdens he has on his shoulders. Being Humanity's Strongest Soldier, he cannot show weakness in front of the soldiers, he is like their pillar of support. Their hope. If their hope were to break down, the soldiers will lose their morale and due to that, Levi has to keep it all in and suffer quietly probably crying in his room, when no one is looking. He has no one to turn to because he is the strongest. It's a BIG BIG burden on him. This is why I respect Levi so damn much! He's so damaged now but he has to be strong for the rest of the soldiers. Poor Levi T_T
For crying out loud. You turned Levi's song from a battle theme to an emotional theme. How in blazes do you do that. Are you a saint. A Angel from the choir of God or something. Just how.
Can you imagine the things Levi had to go through to be who he is now? No emotional expression towards anything, not even for the people he cares about anymore. It's almost as is if his spirit died and decayed along time ago, and the only thing that is still letting him live now is his will, and his borrowed time from all the people that fought and died along side him, can you imagine such a burden that one person has to carry on for the rest of his life? He only lives to fight and try to find redemption for himself and everyone that he lost.
well firstly you should read a choice with no regrets manga, it's trully wonderful and describes perfectly levi's backstory... well i think levi is like that not only because of the pain and the burden of everyone he has lost, but also because he is the leader, the captain. he must stay strong. if he's weak, then everyone in his squad would be too. when his squad members were killed, you could see clearly the pain in his eyes, the pain in his voice. he is emotional, he just can handle his emotions very well
***** i know right? i mean he doesn't want eren to make silly mistakes and choices based on his anger and painful memories because he's afraid of losing him too.. like levi had exactly done in the past (a choice with no regrets).
A reason to love anime is that, though a lot of outsiders consider it as "Children's cartoon" or "shit" they'll never know how deep a story can go, they'll never know how an anime lovers feeling's can be touched, they'll never know how much a manga writer, an anime animator and a song writer (for the anime ofc) can change a person's life and how they now will see things...They'll never know how many times anime has been there for us when no one else was. They'll never know the amazing adventures we go on, the journey we've survived, the heart breaking truth of why Hughes didn't come home (reference, don't get triggered) and the obsess over flipping another page, reading another fanfiction, watching another episode, learning the song and trying to draw their faces. Anime...Was and is the most biggest impact, influence and help I've ever had. Not only did I not feel unwanted or alone, there were also many others out there who were just like me. And this is....My reason for loving anime (I needed to write my thoughts somewhere XDD)
Exactly! I'm so glad somebody understands! It's like the love that i feel for SNK just completely consumes me every time i hear this song, it's such an amazing feeling but at the same time its so painful, to love something like this as much as we do. I feel as though being part of a fandom made me who i am today, and i wouldn't change that for the world. I will be a fangirl until the day i die- and i feel sorry for people who don't love something as much as fangirls and fanboys do- fandoms, after all, can teach us all how to love something passionately.
We played this at my cousin's funeral.The part I quoted in my speech were his favorite parts. "Don't be afraid,it's time after time..." "Remember the days we drempt,now theirpainful for me,I could see your face,I could hear your voice."
Random Person Why did we Undertale fans made it worse? Believe me or not, if you say that we are a cancerous fanbase please refer to the "Undertail" fans that started to draw fucking porn!
Shawn McQueen Don't try making Undertail a dodge. The fandom has literally turned into trash, with sexualized goat women and some things you don't want to hear. It's ruined ECHO, too.
Random Person The "sexualized goat women" you are talkin' about are Undertail's main theme and don't think that we are all the same, truly the majority of the fanbase is fucked up but there are still nice people out there and the game is actually really cool.
Beautiful! The original has the motivation and the drive to kill Titans, but this version... this version makes me see this: It's around 3am in the morning and Levi's in his room. He can't sleep and is thinking too much. He gets up from his chair, gets his journal, and again starts to write about what he remembers of Isabel and Farlan, and how they were his family. Tears start forming and he wipes them away. Then, he writes about Petra and his old squad and he's cursing under his breath as the tears, this time, are unrelenting. Then, he writes about the new squad he has, the brats he has to watch over and train, and that he wonders how long they will last and how he can keep the squad intact. At this point, he's silently crying and his tears are soaking the pages, making them wrinkly like the pages before. After he's finished crying, he puts it back in his trunk, and locks it up. He sits back down in his chair and tries to quickly go to sleep before he thinks of anything else.
That hurts, reading your comment, just imagining a fictional or actual person doing what you just said, it's like there's a painful ache in the heart that just won't leave but the person has to keep living to give meaning for those departed
I can imagine Jean thinking this when Marco died. When it said "I could see your face, I could hear your voice." I picture the funeral scene where he ha that flashback..........And when it said ?I wanna be brave like you." I reminded me how he joined the survey corps so Marco wouldn't be disappointed in him.....
@@the-annoyinator LAMO EDGY BOY, WARNING CRINGE CRINGE ALERT! seriously it's over 3 years old just let it be. (Will delete this comment after a month to not cludder this)
Life asked Death "Why do people hate you but love me?" Death responded "Because your a beautiful lie, and I'm a painful truth. you have to be *hurt* to *know* FALL to GROW *lOsE tO gAiN* because life's lessons are all taught through pain.
Why must the saddest anime songs really be this sad enough to make you cry a whole river, even when you watch the entire series and feel the main character's struggles, their suffering, and their pain while imagining that you're in their shoes? *cries for Levi*
@@hanshe4474 You should totally watch it its amazing the animation and graphics even tho I just started I'd recommend it to anyone who's a fan of horror also deep meanings are hidden in it which I find really nice
*He looked at his friends, the ones he loved.* *The pain he felt in his heart in this grueling moment changed him.* *He decided to trust them.* *He trusted them too much, he believed they would be okay.* *He underestimated the power of fear, in the face of those monsters.* *He trusted them enough to leave them on their own.* *His mind was elsewhere.* *He spotted the enemy.* *Then he realized where it was heading.* *He quickly turned around...* *He kicked his horse and urged it to go farther, faster..* *Little did he know, the sight that was ahead of him...* *Would be the thing that changed his life forever.*
Sometimes I forget that this is an anime and not something from real life... This may be fictional, but the emotions of the characters feel so real, it scares me. Attack on Titan is possibly the only anime that can make me laugh, cry, scare me, make me hate and love characters and still make me want to keep watching. If I had been in their scenario... I don’t think I’d be able to handle any of this
i'm about to cry ;-; My heart aches for poor Levi. Like another comment said, he's so damn strong, not just because he kills titans, because he is Humanity's Strongest Solider and is expected to be strong as hell and the soldiers depend on him to not break down. He's lost cadets and his own friends that were the only ones to make him smile. It's unfair to him, he deserves a break. That's another reason why i'm in love with him. Most humans would give up and fall to the ground, but he stood straight and kept his head up. He's never reluctant to protect the walls.
*For maximum tears: Imagine this through Levi's point of view after the Isabel + Farlan incident Fixed. But being a slow lullaby-ish cover makes this 100x more emotional and tear-jerking.
+Arianna Park it's the first time, the very first time i wish to find an amv of this scene with this song.and when levi go rampage the normal one come back. someone .....anyone....just do it
lmafo4utube Sorry but if you're talking about Petra, Levi was *never* going to marry Petra. Her father only implied he wanted her to wanted to get married to someone: Levi was just someone she really respected. He never really opened his heart after Isabel+Farlan anyway.
We forget what Levi said to Eren in the Courtroom while beating the shit our of me. "I personally believe that nothing instills discipline more than pain , what you're in need of boy is to be taught a lesson, and you happen to be in perfect kicking position" I thought Levi meant in literally which was true after watching the rest of the anime and No regrets , I realized that he meant it figuratively as well , Levi knows what it's like to be in "kicking position" whilst life comes and beats a lesson into him...
Levi’s skills cursed him to watch everyone he cared about die over and over again. It’s a wonder that he’s still even able to bond with people or learn names.
Petra should have survived to give him the happiness he was looking for from the very beginning. Even Isayama admitted it was a mistake to kill her this early
The stronger the person,the harder their past are.Levi's past made him the strongest soldier in humanity who care for his comrades without even showing his emotion.He had suffered enough that he hardly smile.RIP LEVI'S COMRADES
That's why Attack on Titan's emotional songs/background songs, makes me cry. Because of all the suffering of the people inside the walls, and all the soldiers that died to protect someone, is something that makes my heart like a cotton.😢 And those emotional songs of AOT has a depressing meaning inside of it.😢
It was like a nightmare And it's pain for me Because nobody wants to die too fast Remember the day of grief Now it's strange for me I could see your face, I could hear your voice Remember the day we met And it's pain for me Because nobody wants to die too fast Remember the day we dreamt Now it's pain for me I could see your face, I could hear your voice Can't look back, they will not come back Don't be afraid, it's time after time So once again, I'm hiding in my room The peaceful times are what make us blind "See you can't fly, if you never try" You told me, oh, long ago But you left the wall, outside the gate Now more than ever, it's real It was like a nightmare And it's pain for me Because nobody wants to die too fast Remember the day we dreamt Now it's strange for me I could see your face, I could hear your voice Remember the day we met And it's pain for me Because nobody wants to die too fast Remember the day we dreamt And it's pain for me I could see your face, I could hear your voice Sing for reluctant heroes Oh, give me your strength Your lives are too short Sing for reluctant heroes I wanna be brave like you "See you can't fly, if you never try" You told me, oh, long ago But you left the wall, outside the gate Now more than ever, it's real It was like a nightmare And it's pain for me Because nobody wants to die too fast Remember the day we dreamt Now it's strange for me I could see your face, I could hear your voice Remember the day we met And it's pain for me Because nobody wants to die too fast Remember the day we dreamt And it's pain for me I could see your face, I could hear your voice Sing for reluctant heroes Oh, give me your strength Your lives are too short Sing for reluctant heroes I wanna be brave like you
Depressing Theory time!! so the one singing the song is Eren's mom. "No one wants to die too fast" she's talking about how she died before she got to see Eren grow up. "Remeber the day of grief" Shes talking about when she died and Eren wasn't able to save her. "I could see your face, I could hear your voice" She's remembering the last thing she saw and heard from Eren, his Freaked out expression and his screams for her. "Sing for reluctant heroes" Eren never really listened to her. There's more but I'm too depressed by this to continue.
Am i the only one here who, while watching this video, was completely consumed with genuine love for this fandom? There's no way to describe it, it's just like the love, emotions and memories i link with SNK are engraved into my personality, it's what makes me who i am. I will be a part of this fandom until the day i die. This song just sums up all of the feelings that are destroying my sanity right now- i didn't choose the fandom life, the fandom life chose me!
A beautiful song, I didn't really like Levi when I first watched the anime but then watched his backstory, now I have full respect for him, well done leeandlie
Ollie Steele me to... at first i thought why hurt others... Nut now i see that he lost everyone he loved... Ibreally respect him and that he still protects even tgo he has to hude his pain...😢
I remember Attack on Titan was my first anime I ever watched. The first moments of being an anime fan/AOT fandom was amazing.. then I found this video. Had it on repeat for hours, for days! That was 8 years ago and I came back realising that this song was a pillar stone to me on my journey with AOT. I also love the original, but this song has so much emotion it makes me tear up. Even knowing that AOT ended a couple of days ago I had to come back in remembrance of my early years of watching AOT. Thank you Amalee, this song, this lullaby has held our hearts. Shinzou wo Sasageyo!
Goodbye, to the boy who sought freedom. - Chapter 138 Attack on titan was an amazing series that will change my view on life forever, and im grateful for it. Thank you, Hajime Isayama.
Levi is that boy that looks badass and perhaps "edgy" in the outside and we all admire him because of his prowess and actions in combat. He looks unbeatable, untouchable... But in the inside, he suffers like you can't imagine in your worst nightmares.... And yet, he still finds the courage and determination to fight another day....
Chapter 84 perfectly describes Erwin and the people he has sent into death. If you think 'Durrrr This is Armins song. Durrrr' just shut up. Erwin was forced into the position he is now.
I used to have this on repeat 4 years ago and I would cry a lot because I've heard it after watching Levi's ova and Yesterday I've heard it accidentally I didn't remember the name but the first note of piano hit hard , nostalgia is it :'(
I see people in the comments saying how this song perfectly catches how it feels to lose someone, or how it fits the loss of someone. But in my opinion, this song is powerful because it isn't mourning the dead. It's mourning the living. It's mourning those who fight, knowing they'll most likely not come back, because it's all they have left. They have to look forward because it's all they can afford to know. This is the going away song for the heroes that will never return.
This is probably the most beautiful song I've ever heard. Literally brings me to tears every time. Random fact, [this] beautiful song sounds just as beautiful when sped up to 1.25.
Once upon time, a young girl met a person she would soon call a friend. A person to bond with. A sibling. A best friend...forever...right? Then a war broke out within the world. The best friends fought bravely. Side by side. Nothing could stop them. As if two hearts beating as one. One fell down to her knees in pain. It was unbearable. As the foe raised their weapon to the sky. The other friend swiftly jumped in front of them. The weapon...deeply cutting into them..This song shall play to remember the bond they had.
To me dying together is a happy ending, I wished no one was left alive at the end of the anime, they should have all died, this is the only way to consider it as a happy ending, all others are just so sad
I don't care anymore, whoever's left in the end, whoever can keep living at the end of it all, I want them to live.... I just want them to live, whoever is left... Just live.
"Sing for the reluctant heroes Oh Give me your strength Your lives are too short Sing for the reluctant heroes I wanna be brave like you" Las Vegas deaths anyone? ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
imma be honest this show means the world to me and your rendition of this song not gonna lie brought me to legitimate tears and with the show ending soon Imma listen to this again so I can feel sad but happy the show ended.
The start just is my fav aot theme it sums Levi’s character so well he has gone through so much stuff but it hides that in that calm face but he still cares about his cadets
5 Years ago on the 4th of July, I spent my whole night listening to this cover, and the cover of Every Heart from Inuyasha after receiving information that my mother would pass the next day. We loved AoT and Inuyasha together and these songs meant the most to us. I cried for hours while listening to these covers. Thank you so much AmaLee for providing music that can help so much in the darkest times. I still come back to these when I need a bit of a boost going forward.
levi cant die he's levi *season 4 of AoT levi gets killed by people or something* *DAMNIT!!!!!* (by the way I know nothing of the manga so that probably wont happen)
this makes a think about so much things Levi loosing his sister and close friends. Eren cleaning the room and trying to get Connie and the others to clean too while remembering how dedicated the old squad was to cleaning. down here spoiler Grisha causing his sister to get eaten by dogs by going outside of the wall so much
@@dior2983 what? lmao is literally said, "levi losing his sister and close friends". that was levi's mom who died, because in season 3 kenny said that he visited kuchel because she was his sister. if they were talking about isabel, she wasn't even grisha's sister. she's actually related to eren, on carla's side. if you compare isabel to carla, they look pretty similar. she's probably eren's cousin or something.
This always makes me feel so lucky. Most people these days think that they have it so hard and that they are not treated well......but whenever I think about what these guys must go through(even if they are not real) I realize that going through pain is what makes a person who they are 😢😢😟
I don't think people understand how much more pain Levi went through than Mikasa. Mikasa lived above ground, was able to see everything kids in the underground couldn't. Mikasa might have seen her parents murdered in front of her, But Levi lived in a place where there was murder constantly. His mother was never able to provide enough for him, resulting in him being malnourished as a child. After his mother's passing, he was raised by his uncle, and turned into a killing machine. He developed a major case of OCD due to his enviourment and became friends with two thugs, treating them like family. After being caught in the act of trying to provide for himself, Farlan, and Isabel, he was brought to the surface, only to lose them by titans and underestimated because of his short height. Mikasa is pathetic compared to Levi
Agree with everything except for the part where you mention him being underestimated for his height. Not once in the anime or the manga has his height been an issue, people have always feared and respected him
I feel like levi has felt less in larger quantities where mikasa has felt more in far smaller quantities, you could argue that mikasa would have been snapped at harder by these one or two moments but levi has felt far more in comparison, both have went through their own shit and they deserved far better, I guarantee tho if levi lived above ground we def would have been worse off mentaly Edit: he* but we still applies for the levi simp reading this : ' )
Having read the recent chapter of the manga....this just crushed my emotions into atomised bits. It sheds light on that badass's humanity and what makes him so level headed under severe stress and trauma. He buries the pain not to forget, but because he has to so no one else close to him will die. Beautiful arrangement.
Well, if you really want to know... *MOTHER OF ALL SPOILERS* ... ... ... ... (ok, maybe not the mother, but certainly a close cousin) ... ... ... ... Armin sacrifices himself so that Eren can take out the Colossal Titan
I know this is Levi's theme but wow. after chapter 82 I'm destroyed. I'm literally crying R.I.P. Armin and other aot characters that have gone. I can't believe he's really dead! I'll go cry in the corner forever, who's with me?
God d%$# it. The feels. Just that picture of Levi breaks my heart. He's bravely wielding his swords, but his expression is just so sad and lonely. It reflects him perfectly. Humanity's Strongest Soldier, whom everyone idolizes and looks up to. People seem to forget that he's a human being, too, he's been through a lot of grief. His reaction when Furlan and Isabel died.... I get teary every time I think of it. He was DEVASTATED. One minute he was screaming, cutting off the Titan's head and threatening Erwin, yelling that he would kill him, then the next he just fell to his knees. And then that scene when they dumped the bodies and Levi, despite his emotionless facade, was watching Petra's body fall....
Awww .. it's been 5 years since the last time i listen to this.. im still crying and i can still feel the goosebumps going around in my body whenever i listen to this.
He was born strong. He was the one the boys looked up too, the one the girls wanted. He wanted only one thing, to protect his friend who he had grown up with, since he was a child. The war started and they both joined. He didn’t want his friend to join but he did not speak his mind. They trained together, bled, killed together. The battle that changed everything. He had just been promoted to squad leader, he’s now leading his friend and others. His skills were spectacular and he felt confident he could protect them all. The battle has ended, he had gained victory, but there are no cheers of victory. He can not hear the general’s congratulations, all he can see is him alone. His squad, his friend had fallen. He was the strong survivor who saved his country, but his friend is gone. He does not feel sad, he does not feel happy, all he feels is a deep sense of emptiness.
When all think about is Levi's past and what he's gone through , and then u think of Petra and Levi's relationship THE FEELS HIT ME LIKE A TRUCK *crys hard really hard *
This popped into my head yesterday randomly, and I found myself singing it. I haven't listened to this in years, but I had to pull it up today. Its so beautiful and calming in a heartbreaking way. Your voice is gorgeous and I hope you're doing well Its like an ode to say goodbye to those who are gone. Ross and Jeevan, my childhood friends who were gone too soon, I hope you're doing well
