Pumpkin's Palette: Valvrave tribute - Cain and L-Elf

The last episode of Kakumeiki Valvrave was so twisted. We'll have to wait another 3 months until season 2.

Uta no Prince sama Maji Love 1000% and 2000% End Card Compilations

Uta no Prince sama Maji Love 2000% - Episode 13 [v.P]

The last ep! So sad! So many feels. Ah, I'm crying.
Now that season 2 is over, time to host a UtaPri anime marathon! - 13 hours straight of UtaPri☆!!☆

Shingeki no Kyojin Original Soundtrack Download

Some kind hearted soul uploaded the Shingeki no Kyojin OST. You can download it here (aside from the strange file name, I've checked that this is legit). Enjoy!

I expected no less of Sawano's musicianship.

Hirarin has such a versatile and beautiful voice.

Seiyuu appreciation post: Morikawa, KENN and Tomozaku

Morikawa Toshiyuki updated his blog this afternoon and he posted a few interesting pictures, including one where KENN (left) and Tomozaku Sugita (right) were making silly poses.

[Lyrics] IN FUTURE!! - Yuutaku II 「ゆーたくⅡ」

Basic info:

"Yuutaku II" 「ゆーたくⅡ」 is a unit comprised of two seiyuus, Ono Yuuki and Eguchi Takuya. Their two-sided debut single is called 『third Wizard/IN FUTURE!!』. The song "third Wizard" is used as the main theme song of the radio show "What will I do? What will I be!? Yuutaku II" 「どうする?どうなる!?ゆーたくⅡ」, and their second song "IN FUTURE!!" is used as a ending song of the anime Battle Spirits: Sword Eyes.

Comments:

I found these two songs to be very upbeat and catchy. It's full of fun and energy (especially in their PV, they act pretty childish/silly). 

You can download a sample of this single here.

Description: Kanji lyrics and Romaji lyrics of Yuutaku II's song "IN FUTURE!!".

Note: English translation coming soon.

What more to say but that I really really like him. :)

[Piano Sheet Music] Happiness by Aijima Cecil (Uta no Prince sama Maji Love 2000%)

I'm really on a roll with transcribing songs this week. Here's Happiness, Cecil's second song in his character single of UtaPri Maji Love 2000%. This is a really cool song if you can just ignore Cecil's annoying voice. Also, I think the bass line is really fun and awesome.

Again please support me here by giving me rating stars. Thanks!

Hataraku Maou-sama! #12

I can't agree more.

[Piano Sheet Music] Devil Survivor 2 The Animation OST 1 Track 7 終焉への幕開け

I got my hands on a copy of the Devil Survivor 2 The Animation first OST today, and absolutely fell in love with it! So as I'm having an artist block and can't draw, I decided to show my love by transcribing one of the songs. It's track 07 - 終焉への幕開け (From beginning to end).
