A track of cycle of life As the white darkness comes up, I closed my eyes in the shade of the moon Even if the shackles of life were to crumble away I'll keep destroying it and deeply carve it out Trickling down into the sea of ash Right now, I, who can't return to the soil Am a dignifiedly blooming flower, refusing to decay For what purpose I bloom? For what purpose I decay? A battle cry that lacks humaneness Selection of raging flame, echo of crushing death Stepping over all of them, nourishing the heaven The tune echoing in the mausoleum Comes from very, very excited heart It pierced me, who couldn't deliver the finishing blow A vortex of endless fate Heading to the falling sky as I can't shake off my dream to find a pair An enlightened flower has started to bud in me Guided by a track of dream For whose sake do I live? By returning to the soil, I spring back to life Even though I don't have the name of a barren flower that won't decay Slaughtering lives, fusing with darkness Until the time I can sleep quietly Someday, I'll surpass the night Waiting for the time the door would open Should after dozing under the shade of trees, far and out of reach now I can set off on a journey Even the days that had passed would waver maddeningly Resisting what's carved in my blood, the proof of servitude The faraway, dreamlike sand city stands in the twilight Even if the shackles of life were to crumble away Destroy the cage of soul and dash away Grief for the dead, but keep moving forward By returning to the soil, I spring back to life The barren flower that won't decay is blooming in full Turning my back against the pile of corpse that reach to the sky I'll chase after death to the end of all Someday, night shall end, and I'll return to the moon The flower of neverending war shall bloom Translations by V viarachma.wordpress.com/2022/06/20/einherjar/
In order: ~Saw the recommendation ~Saw the artwork ~Saw the song name ~Tapped on video and am now enjoying this highly unique music ~Holy shit there is an osu map
Sjón is sight/vision in Icelandic. Elfen is elves in german. Band name translated is Elves Sight. I'm pretty sure this is the intended name of the band, considering this song's name (Einherjar) is Icelandic and the next (Hexenjagd) is German. I have no idea why youtube recommended this to me. Is this from some anime or something or was it just completely random? Artwork is sweeet.
It's an original work, not really related to any anime. I think it may be classified as a doujin work as I remember it being released in one of comikets, I might be wrong so not sure.
Like practically everyone else, I too was randomly recommended this song and I too pretty much bought the ep immediately. Way to go youtube, first time yall got something right with me this year.
i mean i can see why i got this as a recommendation lol, band maid, LiSA, Eir Aoi, cover singers of anime songs lol.. etc.. pretty awesome sounding too i like it
I legitimately feel inspired to make a story after listening to this and I dare say that its no coincidence that I found it after the PSO2 New Genesis anime opening I just found before it!
I know a certain half elf that accompanied by spirit and she make a certain forest freze in time for more than 100 years. Now she is in competion to become empress and have a help from a guy that loved by the witch
I don't have a twitter account so I can't see all the media, but this one is on there for public (original illustrator). Also used as the banner on top twitter.com/kachiru_i/status/1215096847284367360/photo/1 Incase you didn't know: Ctrl + U Ctrl + F og:image -> Ctrl + V the .png/jpg link Ctrl + L Ctrl + V Enter Right click to search in google and go from there
Ow and almost all lead back to this website: elfensjon.site/ep01/ scroll down a bit you see "Illustrator" = elfensjon.site/ep01/ but thats the same as the twitter
I thought that she was Satela lol anyway great song! This made me remember Re:zero season 2 that's still on the way on april (i think), for now I'll be contented for the recap season with extra scenes.
It be like that sometimes. Honestly I'm only here because of chasing Kurose Keisuke's trail after being in the mood for some classic ASRIEL and UROBOROS vibes but with newer content. Definitely interesting to see how he's stepped down from mainstream and has just been hidden in the third party/doujin spheres these past 5 years. Still got the good old classic sound though (just with newer vocalists to his style.)
It's old Norse, einherjar means "he who stands alone" or "army of one" or "those who fight alone." It is referring to the warriors of Valhall in Norse mythology. A little more context on the einherjar if you aren't familiar with Norse mythology: They are warriors who fell in battle and were chosen by the valkyries. They live in Odin's hall (Valhall) and engage in a constant cycle of feasting, drinking, and fighting until Ragnarök. Until Ragnarök they are immortal, any wound they incur will be healed by Odin's sorcery, and those who fall in their daily battles will br resurrected. During Ragnarök they, along with Odin, are devoured whole in a single bite by the great wolf Fenrir. They will be avenged by Odin's son Vidar. The concept of einherjar still lives on in modern Scandinavia. The battle cry of Norwegian soldiers in Afganistan was "Til Valhall" meaning "To Valhall."
