I played EVANGELION OP (A Cruel Angel's Thesis) on piano in public 

Christmas in June huh... Honestly, I was on the fence about posting this video from December 2019 but because of the lockdowns, I've decided to post any and all clips I had, even if they have a lot of mistakes. It's hard to say when I'll go out and record there again honestly, but now these videos feel like a nostalgia trip lol

I like how the couple were just vibin in the back, this opening is still one of the most iconic and memorable ones, even for the people who haven't watched the anime.

SHINJI GET IN THE PIANO!

00:07 you can hear the girl in the right singing

Fonzi: *plays weeb music* The girl behind him: *G r o o v e*

I'm so early there is no Evangelion jokes yet lol

Everyone surrounded him and said "congratulations".

That girl looks like a Sim character when she listens to music and I love it, lol. Edit: Wow what the heck, so many likes. Sorry if you can't unsee the Sim *G R O O V E* now, lol.

It’s funny because I never watched this anime but the second I heard this opening I knew how to hum the entire song lol

I wonder if Shinji’s hands are that fast when *cough* looking at Asuka’s body

1:09 her bf : yeah that's my weeb girlfriend dancin bruhhhh

You'd be surprised at how many people don't know this song.

00:06 you can hear someone humming along if your volume is high enough

When you're a newbie and want to sing the lyrics but there's none in the comments. "Fine, I'll do it _myself_ " Zankoku na tenshi no you ni Shounen yo, shinwa ni nare Aoi kaze ga ima mune no doa wo tataitemo Watashi dake wo tada mitsumete Hohoenderu Anata Sotto Fureru mono Motomeru koto ni muchuu de Unmei sae mada shiranai itaike na hitomi Dakedo itsuka kizuku deshou Sono senaka ni wa Haruka mirai mezasu tame no Hane ga aru koto Zankoku na tenshi no tēze Madobe kara yagate tobitatsu Hotobashiru atsui patosu de Omoide wo uragiru nara Kono sora wo daite kagayaku Shounen yo, shinwa ni nare Zutto nemutteru watashi no ai no yurikago Anata dake ga yume no shisha ni Yobareru asa ga kuru Hosoi kubisuji wo tsukiakari ga utsushiteru Sekai jū no toki wo tomete Tojikometai kedo Moshi mo futari aeta koto ni imi ga aru nara, Watashi wa, sou, jiyū wo shiru Tame no Baiburu Zankoku na tenshi no tēze Kanashimi ga soshite hajimaru Dakishimeta inochi no katachi Sono yume ni mezameta toki Dare yori mo hikari wo hanatsu Shounen yo, shinwa ni nare Hito wa ai wo tsumugi nagara rekishi wo tsukuru Megami nante narenai mama Watashi wa ikiru Zankoku na tenshi no tēze Madobe kara yagate tobitatsu Hotobashiru atsui patosu de Omoide wo uragiru nara Kono sora wo daite kagayaku Shounen yo, shinwa ni nare

Failed to come early. Shinji didn't.

Fonzi is on the piano. All's right with the world.

that ending though amazing. and on top of that the end credit was bunny girl senpai

very cooll. enjoyed your rendition so muchhhh!

A Cruel Angel's Thesis is definitely a crowd-pleaser, also surprisingly well-known even to non-weebs.

Test Type EVA-01 Absolute Terror Field Angels Tokyo-3 Prototype EVA-00 Production Model EVA-02 Second Impact

That woman's having the time of her life 😂

Ahhh evangelion the one anime that I will never understand

at 0:10 you can hear a female weeb sing along

I recently finished the series just 5 MINS AGO, and this appeared on my recommended list xD What a ride, the ending taught me a lesson and it is far from what I expected in this mecha anime, 8/10! Edit: Definitely recommend this for those who haven't watched it GET IN THE ROBOT SHINJI

Evangelion never gets old 🎶Zankoku na tenshi no you ni Shounen yo shinwa ni nare🎶

When you come earlier, but you can't make funny joke

Me: Plugging My Earphones Also me: Okay now *PLAY*

I would have absolutely flipped if I heard this, I’d be dancing and singing like my life depended on it

This Music Is Perfect For The People Who Are Resting And Wanting Peace New Sub Btw ♥

Stand User: Fonzi Stand Name: Piano Stand Ability: Summon all weebs in a nearby radius

Imagine the normies that are vibing to the song thinking: hey, this is pretty good..

めっちゃ上手いし、弾いてる場所とか超オシャレ！

When you come early, but the only comments are about how they can't make funny jokes...

Very nice! You've got a really cool take on the middle section that I haven't heard from other performances on piano. I would've been right there singing along in my butchery of the Japanese lyrics if I could!

I haven't even watched evangelion yet but "cruel angels thesis" is fire.

1:58: Even the cameraman be vibin' and dancin' to the music

I love how evangelion never lost popularity over the years

I'm here so early that Just Some Guy With A Mustache hasn't been seen in the comments

1:20 old mans chillin😂

We want a studio performance of this fabulous arrangement 🤩🤩 This is too amazing to just have a crowd enjoy it❣️ It's a very very powerful arrangement 🔥 Definitely warrants multiple streams😌

I'm just waiting for shinji jokes,don't kind me hee hee

Plot twist: He summoned an angel Edit: An angel from evangelion not those angels

Your videos have made me want to relearn piano

God knows how long have i been waiting for it

0:41 MacGregor

all your videos make me happy!!!

swear ive heard this song so many times but have never watched the anime. so goodddd

1:21 white-haired old man guy: feel young again huh

here in 4 mins, damn my refresh luck tho

Fonzi M:Plays piano in public Corona virus:AM I A JOKE TO YOU?

I always love your videos!

I've never even watched Evangelion, but the theme slaps

*Next video: "playing fly me to the moon at a wedding (THEY HIRED ME!!"*

I don't remember the last time I saw an in-tune grand piano in public, but I just realized now we really need more of those.

Very Kaiba feel to this. Two of my favorite animes!

I am actually watching evangalion right now so this is like a sensation to me😍

Musicians in 2040: “Simply piano” Boomers: “Private tutoring and ABRSM” Me: “You guys get lessons?”

I love these kind of songs it just gives me the vibe

I crack up at the initially grumpy old man who walks across around 1:20, but then he goes into "omedetou" mode & gives the piece the "thumbs up" gesture after he's just slightly out of frame.

Even the coronavirus isn't stopping you from playing a classic song, what a man of culture

This is honestly just great

When chips are implanted in all of us when this piano starts to play we get recommendations to watch Evangelion

Been waiting for this video😂😁👍

Me: "Now this is the story, of a boy named Shinji!" Crowd: ...

Shokugenki no souma "kibou no uta"😍😍

The classic... so good

Everyone: great music! Girl: Vibing

Can you please do the song “fly high” from the anime HAIKYUU!!

Evangelion♥️

これまで日本人のストリートピアノをRU-vidで聴きましたが、Fonzi Mさんのピアノが一番好きです！

This is amazing

*A Cruel Angel's Thesis but there is no melody and it is just shinji screaming*

tiktokers be like: *whats a cruel angels thesis isnt that the one tiktok song*

Fonzi: 10000/100 piano technique: 1000/100 piano intonation: 10/100

I have heard "The Angels Cruel Thesis" for a thousand of times already. That my brain can play and fill out the whole song already even if its just the humming version that's playing.

How much I loved finally this: [ ] As much as a person can not love their son [ ] As much as a person can love beer [X] As much as a person can love a catatonic girl *looks at what I just wrote* I'm so messed up.

🥰🤘🤘🤘👍👍👍👍 Супер☺

This hits different it just does.

Excellent performance, really felt it! Keep up the amazing playing!

So this is the human INSTRUMENTality project

first time im actually early on a vid

Its good to see a new vid buddy!

Merry early Christmas with EVA

Cruel angel grew on me I used to not like but man I was so wrong

If I saw him I would give him some anime recommendations to watch

Awesome!

Can't wait to see newer and newer stuff as soon as this is all over. Bet your raring to play again for the people. Love these man. Stay safe.

This brings on nostalgia from my childhood

This is the golden wind of corona virus

so adorable music! i live it!

That older gentleman that was sitting at the very left of some shots looked like he was having flashbacks of the Second Impact

i tried to be early but i failed :"(

Honestly, if a girl can play Cruel Angel's Thesis she can peg me

I've been waiting for this for so long

Finaly !!!! this Masterclass

Get in the goddamn mall, Shinji.

Shinji get in the piano Sorry guys had to do this joke

I just watched the end of evangelion yesterday love seeing videos like this. Also this is one of the more complex piano versions I’ve heard of this song and he killed it

I know this building very well, since it's in my home city, and it makes me a little sad that I never had the privilege to be there while you play. A master at work *chef's kiss*

I dont know the actual words but i just cant stop humming.
