The Black Parade but it's an anime opening (feat.  

IT WORKS SO WELL 🥺

when you remember that Gerard actually is a huge geek and loves anime and manga, this becomes lowkey wholesome

Feels more like an anime ending than an Opening lol

What pure joy to be a part of such a beautiful duet ❤ Incredible job on everyone's part!

GERARD WAY NEEDS TO SEE THIS RN

My wife totally is requesting I'm not ok, by mcr

Keeping with MCR, either "I'm Not Okay", or "Famous Last Words"

the intro sounds like an ending, the main body of the song sounds like an opening

Everyone's talking MHA, but all I can think of is Dragonball right now. Rest in peace, Toriyama-san.

I'm Japanese and loving MCR. This song is like a bible of my life. I often watched original MV, but I didn't think that I want to try to translate it in Japanese context. Because of your cover, I could get another impression to this song, so I'm about to cry. Thank you for covering this song! "山あり 谷あり 何があっても あなたがいなくなっても 生きるよ、生きるよ" This part is my favorite.🤘

Grab the eyeliner, black clothes and energy drinks! Grab the death note manga and swoop your bangs, it's Japanese emo time No seriously this slaps

Brb, trying to imagine what type of anime would even deserve this as an intro

“Dear Maria Count Me In” should be the next one for sure!

THIS COVER GOES UNGODLY HARD.

This hits after that final arc in the season, another villain pops up because the previous one was defeated by the mc but loses his mentor in the process, hence the mc travels the world for training

The vocal delivery on "koware" at 3:10 is HEAVENLY

Not me tearing up and getting verklempt. High school me would've loved this way back in 2007. God I miss music like this being on the radio.

This would have been a Naruto opening that we all went CRAZY for in 2007

Somewhat ironically, the first part of Welcome to the Black Parade is perfect for an anime ED but not an OP, while the last two thirds of Welcome to the Black Parade is perfect for an anime OP but not ED. I'm just trying to think of which anime that combination would fit best. Probably not Black Clover, Black Butler, Black Bullet, Death Parade etc. lol

VISUAL KEI ISNT DEAD -- CALEB AND BRANDON BROUGHT IT BACK XD

I always imagined this as an opening for Fullmetal Alchemist back in high school, thanks for making feel real, for just a bit

I literally need an anime series with this opening

I'm curious to hear how Mama by MCR would sound in Japanese, it would make my inner weeb and goth teen so happy

Thank you for pairing with Caleb. He is such an underrated singer here on RU-vid with such an amazing voice! This is such a blessing to my ears and what a bop, as always!

The first part of the song is the ending and the faster beat is the opening and the course and second verse only happen DURING the anime at pivotal points.

Romaji by @kisshufan4ever you can find them in the comments Just did some minor adjustments myself [Intro] Gaki no koro ni chichi to Maachin bando mite iwareta Musuko yo otonani nattara Kowareta hito no kyuseishu ni nare Shinjai gai to akuma Sonna karera ni katte hoshi Maboroshi o itsuka nokoshi Kuroi paredo eto michibikasu kara Gaki no koro ni chichi to Maachin bando mite iwareta Musuko yo otonani nattara Kowareta hito no kyuseishu ni nare [Verse 1] Mirareteru ki ga suru yo toki ni Ikanakya to omou tokimo Yama arita ni ari nani ga atte mo Anata ga inaku natte mo [Chorus] Ikiru yo ikiru yo Anata ga shindete mo Omoide wa ikiru Ikiruyo Kokoro ni osamerezu Setsu me mo dekizu [Verse 2] Nakunatta yume ni yoromeka sare Kurushimi ni korosareru Ja kuroku nutte yare Sakende yarunda Hanko shite mata saigo wa [Chorus] Ikiru yo ikiru yo Anata ga shinde temo Omoide wa Ikiru Ikiru yo Kowarete make tatte Aruki tsudzukeru [Bridge] Kyofu no naka datte Mawari wa gakkari suru Demo ore wa do datte ii yo [Breakdown] Murisa zettai ni Ubaete ore no kokoro Yatte misero tte Subete wo yaritogeru yo Ayamaru koto wa sezu Hajirai nante nai sa Omae no mikata nanda Sore ga orera nanda Hero janai kara Tada no utau otoko Hero janai kara Shiranee [Chorus] Ikiru yo ikiru yo Anata ga shindete mo Omoide wa ikiru Ikiru yo Kowarete make tatte Aruki tsudzukeru yo Murisa zettai ni Ubaete ore no kokoro Yatte misero tte Subete wo yaritogeru yo (Ikiru yo) Murisa zettai ni Ubaete ore no kokoro Yatte misero tte Subete wo yaritogeru yo (Ikiru yo)

In the end linkin park

I swear Caleb is in every fourth cover that has something to do with anime, a cool game, or a movie

I desperately want this to actually be used as an OP

God I don’t use my account on here for much but I clicked on it almost instantly before even seeing the title. I saw black parade outfit so I clicked. This was awesome. I have a suggestion or three if we’re still talking MCR. Helena. Sing. Teenagers. The Kids from Yesterday. Sorry that’s four I guess but this made my day so thank you.

we need a MCR anime with this as the closing song or the opening for season 2 or 3

Interesting fact about this song - Brandon wrote this song when he was a young boy when his family was living in Tokyo. He was in town to see a parade when he saw a stray dog also watching from the streets. As a young boy, he was naturally curious of the shaggy but still happy Shiba Inu. They quickly became friends, meeting everyday. Brandon would name the dog "Di-oh-ji". Sometimes the dog would be beaten by the kids on the streets, Brandon would take care of di-oh-ji. The kids would mock Brandon for touching and caring for a stray that no one wanted. Brandon's parents wouldn't let the dog inside their house so all brandon could do was take care of the dog outside of their home. Over the years, their friendship strengthened but the dog continued to live on the street, still getting abused when Brandon was in school. A decade has passed, the dog is gone but the memory of Di-oh-ji will carry on inside Brandon and this song.

Vampire Heart by HIM could be a fun anime intro, and HIM song really.

When I was a young boy My father took me into the city To see a marching band He said, "Son, when you grow up Would you be the savior of the broken The beaten and the damned?" He said, "Will you defeat them? Your demons, and all the non-believers The plans that they have made?" "Because one day, I'll leave you a phantom To lead you in the summer To join the black parade" When I was a young boy My father took me into the city To see a marching band He said, "Son, when you grow up Would you be the savior of the broken The beaten and the damned?" Sometimes I get the feelin' She's watchin' over me And other times I feel like I should go And through it all, the rise and fall The bodies in the streets And when you're gone, we want you all to know We'll carry on, we'll carry on And though you're dead and gone, believe me Your memory will carry on We'll carry on And in my heart, I can't contain it The anthem won't explain it A world that sends you reelin' From decimated dreams Your misery and hate will kill us all So paint it black and take it back Let's shout it loud and clear Defiant to the end, we hear the call To carry on, we'll carry on And though you're dead and gone, believe me Your memory will carry on We'll carry on And though you're broken and defeated Your weary widow marches On and on, we carry through the fears Oh, ah, ha Disappointed faces of your peers Oh, ah, ha Take a look at me, 'cause I could not care at all Do or die, you'll never make me Because the world will never take my heart Go and try, you'll never break me We want it all, we wanna play this part I won't explain or say I'm sorry I'm unashamed, I'm gonna show my scars Give a cheer for all the broken Listen here, because it's who we are Just a man, I'm not a hero Just a boy, who had to sing this song Just a man, I'm not a hero I don't care We'll carry on, we'll carry on And though you're dead and gone, believe me Your memory will carry on You'll carry on And though you're broken and defeated Your weary widow marches, oh Do or die, you'll never make me Because the world will never take my heart Go and try, you'll never break me We want it all, we wanna play this part (we'll carry on) Do or die, you'll never make me (we'll carry on) Because the world will never take my heart (we'll carry on) Go and try, you'll never break me (we'll carry on) We want it all, we wanna play this part (we'll carry on!

This sounds perfect for FMA opening/ending

0:00-1:47 is the Anime ED for last episode with credits 1:48 to end is the Anime Full OP

sounds like something from Tokyo Ghoul just because of the pure intensity !!!

I rarely listen to covers that change the language entirely, but this song may change me a lot from now on. Thank you for opening my eyes.

My little japanese-obsessed, emo heart is so freaking happy right now!!! 🖤🖤🥹🥹😭😭🖤🖤 Thank you so much for this!!

First time I heard Welcome to The Black Parade I thought that it would be a banger anime opening. Now I know that I was right. Awesome cover!

😭 my life is complete

One of very few covers that actually sound like an original song

need a music video

English translation: [Brandon McInnis] (Intro) When I was a kid, with my father I was told when I saw the marching band, "Son, when you grow up, Be the savior of a broken person. Other than believers and the devil, I want them to win like that. Leave a vision someday, I'll lead you to the Black Parade." (Intro repeats) (Verse 1) I feel like I'm being watched Even when I think I have to go. There are mountains and valleys, no matter what happens, Even if you're gone (Chorus 1) I'll live, I'll live Even if you die Memories are I'll live, I'll live I can't keep it in my heart I can't even explain [Caleb Hyles] (Verse 2) I was staggered by the dream of death To be killed by suffering Then paint it black I'll scream for you I rebelled and in the end (Chorus 2) I'll live, I'll live Even if you die Memories are I'll live, I'll live He said it was broken and lost Keep walking [Brandon McInnis & Caleb Hyles] (Verse 3 / Bridge) Even in fear People around me are disappointed But I don't care It's impossible, absolutely I can't take it away, my heart Let me do it. I'll do everything. Don't apologize. There's no shame. I'm on your side That's us Because I'm not a hero Just a singing man Because I'm not a hero I don't know (Chorus 1 repeats) (Instrumental Outro)

Came to listen to the full song from Instagram. Awesome. This deserves a lot more attention. I know a little bit of japanese, it was cool to realise you have translated the lyrics itself which I know is a pretty difficult task.

Something by Muse - maybe Supermassive Blackhole? 😊

One of the best covers ever It fits with a lot of anime openings so well

*most darkest arc in anime history :

Ok. So I help run Main Events at Otakon. We need this played on the main stage…omg can we get the Sunrise Skater Kids and have an entire night of Japanese covers 😮

If only there will be more animes hiring foreign artists to sing the theme songs like Kaiju no 8, I think MCR would be great to sing the theme song of a dark fantasy anime, something like Black Butler

Caleb's Japanese is beautiful!!! 👏 Such a nice tone! The lyrics are also very powerful and fit with the original lyrics! What a gem!❤

I KNEW I HEARD CALEB ON TIKTOK

Because Brandon is Mafuyu's va, i really want someone to animate Given as MCR

There are a few of these already, but I thought I'd share my rendition of the romanji. I feel pretty good about the accuracy. Also, during the outro, the backup vocal is definitely singing "続けるよ (tsuzukeru yo)" whereas the written lyric in the video is "生きるよ (ikiru yo)". There's also a missing "よ (yo)" at the very end of the final chorus that's not written in the video as well. Anyhwo, lyrics! [Intro] Gaki no koro ni chicihi to Maachingubando o miteiwareta Musuko yo otona ni nattara Kowareta hito no kyuuseishuu ni nare Shinja igai to akuma Sonna karera ni kattehoshii Maboroshi o itsuka nokoshi Kuroi pareedo e to michibikasukara Gaki no koro ni chicihi to Maachingubando o miteiwareta Musuko yo otona ni nattara Kowareta hito no kyuuseishuu ni nare [Verse 1] Mirareteru ki ga suru yo toki ni Ikanakya to omou toki mo Yama ari tani ari nani ga atte mo Anata ga inakunatte mo [Chorus 1] Ikiru yo, ikiru yo Anata ga shindete mo Omoide wa Ikiru, ikiru yo Kokoro ni osamerezu Setsumei mo dekizu [Verse 2] Nakunatta yume ni yoromekasare Kurushimi ni korosareru Jaa kuroku nutteyare Sakende yarunda Hankoushite mata saigo wa [Chorus 2] Ikiru yo, ikiru yo Anata ga shindete mo Omoide wa Ikiru, ikiru yo Kowarete maketatte Aruki tsuzukeru [Bridge] Kyoufu no naka datte Mawari wa gakkarisuru Demo ore wa doudatte ii yo Murisa zettai ni Ubaenee ore no kokoro Yattemiserotte Subete o yaritogeru yo Ayamaru koto wa sezu Hajirai nantenai sa Omae no mikatananda Sore ga orerananda Hiiroo janai kara Tada no utau otoko Hiiroo janai kara shiranee [Chorus 3] Ikiru yo, ikiru yo Anata ga shindete mo Omoide wa Ikiru, ikiru yo Kowarete maketatte Aruki tsuzukeru yo [Outro] Murisa zettai ni Ubaenee ore no kokoro Yattemiserotte Subete o yaritogeru yo (tsuzukeru yo) Murisa zettai ni Ubaenee ore no kokoro Yattemiserotte Subete o yaritogeru yo

Nah Dead! has to be the intro, people are right, this is a great anime ending song.

How did not absolutely blow up?? This is beautiful omfg I'm actually obsessed holy crap.

As an American where Japanese is my second language (日本語は私の僕の言語です。), seeing my favorite childhood jams wrote in that language is a blessing and beautiful!

Well, I guess I just found my new loop song, you guys did such a fantastic job together!

It fits perfectly. Kinda wish Tokyo ghoul remake use this with unravel

This fit perfectly for the OP in Naruto. specifically the fight between Sasuke and Itachi

Is there romanised lyrics so I can sing along? Because this SLAPS ❤

bro also show in romanji alphabet please.. we want to see marching band and sing together

To be precise it should be anime ending special of a sheinen anime.

Epic song!!!! Imagining Haikyuu with this song.. Start of the song showing each member with their own life or problems, like Hinata looking at little giant, Tobio standing alone while his old team mates in the background, etc.. in the end they starting to gather in the gym..

I love this. Would you ever consider doing The Ghost Of You, and Helena by MCR? Also think My Songs Know What You Did In The Dark by Fall Out Boy would be cool.

Holy shit these vocals. This fcks

i''d like to see this, done with the song, smells like teen spirit, from nirvana and have an amine style video, that has something to do with high school synced with it.

This sounds as good as the original......now I would like to see a video of Welcome To The Black Parade but in Anime (AMAZING) MCR 🖤

why is this not exploding yet

The first time I heard this song, I thought it sounded like an anime opening. And here we are.

This is so epic, what the heck 😭❤️

The way I SCREAMED when I got the notif!!!!

As an elder emo and weeb this hits so hard! The translation is so good 😌

I love this version🖤

It’s too damn good. BRANDON, WHY DID YOU MAKE IT SO GOOD?!

Good girls bad guys falling in reverse

I love the original, but the vocals in your cover give me chills every time ❤️ Thanks for the lyrics, too - I started learning Japanese, and can't ask for better comprehensive input 🙏🏻☺️ Would you attempt "Hurt" (or really anything else by Trent Reznor)? Just imagining an epic anime version of it sung in your haunting voice is titillating!

Thank you for sacrificing your 20's in order to achieve this for us 😂❤🎉

From 3:55 until the end is my favorite part

Growing up into anime and with this the anthem of my generation - this is the cover I never knew I needed. You guys crushed it! I'm here thanks to following Caleb on Spotify - I'm not sure I've ever slammed a subscribe button so fast! Keep up the amazing work!

Need more than this!!!

Take me back to Eden - Sleeptoken , I think that cover would be sooo sick. This was great!!!

THANK YOU SO MUCH

I've thought for a long time that if there was ever an American song that would make a great anime opening, it's this one

please make a karaoke out of this in romaji 😭😭😭🙏🙏🙏

WOAHHH BRANDOOON !! WHAT AN AMAZING MASTERPIECEE !!

1:47 it's like an Opening of a Shounen

I missed these types of RU-vid videos in my page

Wild choice that I think would be really cool: "The Adventure" by Angels & Airwaves

This slaps

Face down - Red jumpsuit apparatus

Why did i feel like this is an op for anime that focused highschool😂

MCR - Disenchanted

So when is an animated music video happening?

Wow.... But I expect the anime as the scene like your post at Instagram. Bravo!

IM SCREAMING- Not really since I'm in the break room at my workplace, haha. But as a twenty-three year old emo, this is fucking AMAZEBALLS I JUST CANT AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

I really needed this today thanks this is really beautiful 🎉

This is so good...emo kid for life here!! Now it feels like i just popped in a JRPG on PS2!
