In my opinion, this live version of Mezame is way better than the studio version (Wakana, Keiko, Kaori, and Yuriko just sound so damn good to my ears).
The instrumentation as a whole is a lot better here too. I'm much more fond of the percussion here. Everything in this gives me a bigger impact than the studio version tbh, to the point of making me stop listening to the studio version entirely.
I still come back to this live performance and hope this video never gets taken down. This song is just pure beauty and power that captivates me today as much as when I first heard this. Like facing the final boss and giving it your all where the stakes couldn't be any higher. Just magnificant.
omfg their faces when they join Mezame and Ensei IS DIVINE. They know we wouldnt be expecting, they know we got the chills, they know both songs are perfect, simply MESMERIZING
Diciembre 2020, descubrí este fantástico concierto en vivo que estupendo sin palabras, que voces, el violín supremo, Yuki Kajiura mis respetos que bárbaros
@@Jenny-xe4gt i extremely disagree. Only those who didnt listen to hiroyuki sawano's music especially will only say that. Yuki kajiura is one of my top composers and i dont have problems if you prefer her works over others but to say that the other 2 that i mentioned is not on the same level as her is pure ignorance.
Kaori has to stop a little to catch a breath at 2:12 XD. I love seeing them improving over time, this is their first live together, and many flaws, but full of energy.
I like it much more live than in the studio, but my favorite Mezame is on Reprise Vol 01, you can hear the 4 voices clearly but fitting together perfectly, beautiful, I listen to it over and over again.
Two girls of Kalafina are in this band, FictionJunction, too. Wakana and Keiko, they're pretty amazing. And Yuki Kajiura always plays the piano, since she composes her songs using it and, as seen in Parallel Hearts MV, she appears in it playing piano. :D
Mai-HiME had its flaws (Sunrise...you ALWAYS find ways to make me dislike you) but Mezame is perfection. I wouldn't say its my FAVORITE Kajiura track but HOLY FUCK it is FANTASTIC either way.
Imo one of the best OSTs (next to Macross Plus and Gits) and probably the reason why I started watching anime seriously on the internet back in the mid 2000s until today.
oh my goodness, so many chills. It's not often that chills of this magnitude and intensity are triggered! props to these ladies and Yuki Kajiura-san for their hard work and such a successful performance!
Thanks for uploading man, the one I had on my favorites was remove, so thanks. They are so badass man. Perfect singers, Yuki is an awesome composer, and just a kick ass group all together.
Nanri Yuuka's performance as Nao was also freaking top notch. (In Mai Hime/Otome). Such a great singer/actress (whether or not she's singing here lol, i didnt watch it yet). She needs to be in more anime and CDs

I'm so jealous. I couldn't make it to AX this year. I've seen Kajiura live in concert before, but it was an orchestral concert rather than a full Fiction Junction show. I can't wait until the next time i can see her.
