Mili - Grown-Up's Paradise // Reaction & Analysis 

Yes, the lyrics is pretty much about Amiya. She was about 14 yo when the story started and at that time she was already a leader of Rhodes Island (and Lord of Fiends). Had to face wars, battlefield, death of foes and enemies, and all the responsibilites as the leader. And even with all of those, Amiya still choose to keep marching forward and keep walking on this path, which is why the marching ending of the song.

the animation was already amazing but I was not expecting Mili so when I heard Cassie's first line I got goosebumps

"I'm on your ark Answer me, my sinking ship Where's our tomorrow?" Arknights = "Ark of Tomorrow" in Chinese 😭

THE MILI JUMPSCARE

As someone barely know anything about arknight, this song gives very powerful meanings that reach further outside of the game context into real world and might even resonate with a lot of people

Lost innocence is certainly a heavy theme in Arknights, and the way the price of ideals is paid in blood, often by those far too young

The question is not "Is Mili gonna cook", the question now is "What will Mili cook next?"

God, I love the messages in Mili's songs. Another great song that shares some of those anti-war sentiments I would recommend is 'Dandelion Girls, Dandelion Boys', especially since it's also from a somewhat younger perspective, like that of a teenager/young man being drafted.

Love the song and the references in it, they did a really good job and i hope that we will get more Arknights songs from Mili.

Arknights story is depressing, The progression is also sad Most bosses that you fight are infected, same as you are, you understand their anger, you understand their goal even then, we still chose to stop them, even ended their lives It's a clash of ideal of people who share a common understanding and faction Arknights has a lot of good stories with a very strong messages. If you think this is anime story that has no message aside from friendship then you will be so wrong Arknights's lore is deep and realistictic, mostly took it from history it self But have that extra magical theme in to it But then the siege chapter came in and we though we could use that magic to save everyone We sacrificed so much to get that thing It's useless, we tossed it aside and we grabbed hammer to break the wall to save people That it self is magical story telling. It's not going to be relic, magic or hero that will save people It's a determination and will to spend all your power and strength To throw a dream away and wake up and grab that hammer in a mud and break the wall along with your comrades.

Hell Yeah Mili!!! Fyi Arknights Also Slipped Out A FIFTEEN Minute Long 3D Animation Called "The Daggers Inheritor" Highly Recommend Looking At The Pretty Thing

mili writing every time man

Now u gotta do the other 15 minute Arknights animation video after the commemorative animation

I know nothing about music.. but everytime mili upload i always wonder how the songs came to be.. how they convey another group's idea (story, emotion) and still deliver it with their best of abilities..

its a pretty good song a nice surprise that mili is doing more music for different things

Arknights is The Elegy of Idealism

yippee

wuhoooooo

are you going to do a video about the new animation video arknights put out a bit ago, the dagger's inheritors?

Spoilers This hits Doctors dark history of happiness and tragic fall down clashing with his future bonds. She got that plot early.

would had liked to hear your opinion in the animation too.

GO AND WATCH THE ANIMATION RHINT NOW!!!!

Hm. I cant quite put my finger on it, but for some reason, I dont think I really like this song. Dont get me wrong, I can fully see (or hear, rather) that the song is incredibly well-done, and the song also managed to make me cry, but for some reason, I just have this nagging feeling that I don't enjoy the song. Its strange, because its not like its a genre I dislike, and I usually enjoy Mili songs, but this one specifically I'm just not a fan of and I can't pinpoint exactly why. Well, this *is* only my first time listening to the song. Maybe listening to it more will let it grow on me.

Man, I've heard this song so many times after the Commemorative Animation, and every time I hear that "Where's our tomorrow? Where does our future go?", just breaks me. Being with Arknights since global launch and a big fan of Mili, finally seeing them do a song for the franchise took me by surprise and I was so happy for it. The animation itself was absolutely beautiful too, between the animators and the studios themselves that worked on it and the director whose done amazing projects with other franchises. That part shows well the kind of turning point that part of the story has along with the brilliance of the character itself having her imitating singing Mili's work in the production for a brief moment. Mili really does do an absolutely amazing job at being able to have a track that both incredibly fits the theme their music is placed to while equally able to stand completely individually on their own. It's absolutely fascinating. I really, really hope they collaborate again with Arknights at some point, can only dream we get an in-game track of their music one day!
