Main style (すずめ) 0:00
Sky Over Tokyo (東京上空) 2:13
Closing the Door (戸締まり) 4:25
KANATA HALUKA (カナタハルカ) 6:50
After the big hit "Your name" and "Weathering with You", I was actually looking forward to enjoying the newest film by Makoto Shinkai. And I have to state, "Suzume no Tojimari" has truly gone beyond all my expectations and has quickly become my favorite anime film from the last few years.
The message of the motion picture is really strong: Telling individuals to not lose wish for their future, even after experiencing a terrific disaster. I was also really stunned that the motion picture is straight referencing the 3.11 earthquake in Japan.
Considering that I was so satisfied by the movie, I decided to make a piano collection and used 4 music pieces from the official Suzume no Tojimari soundtrack.
[There are minor spoilers about the film in the following paragraph, please read it at your own danger]
The primary style (すずめ) 0:01 is easily the most unforgettable tune of the film: A basic style in D-minor, at first played by the right-hand man alone. Throughout the movie, this style has actually come back many times in different variations.
Part 2 (東京上空) 2:13 is another remarkable scene in the film. This particular soundtrack is playing when the huge Mimizu is about to trigger a great earthquake in Tokyo. The musical buildup is long and I included increasingly more layers (including the powerful drums in 3:22) up until the music suddenly comes to a stop in 4:20.
Part 3 (戸締まり) 4:25 is a variation of the Main theme and it's being played near the end of the movie, in my favorite scene: Suzume finally went through the door and realized that little woman is actually her younger self from the past. She encouraged her past self to do her finest, even after all hope is seemingly lost after the earthquake. I still keep in mind the final conversation in between Suzume and younger Suzume:
" Who are you, big sister?"
— "I am your tomorrow"
I actually, really love this scene, it was just so well made.
Part 4 (カナタハルカ) 6:50 is the ending tune of the movie and acts as the grand finale of the collection. This is likewise the only piece in a major secret and I included an additional finale with fast runs to commemorate the end of Suzume's Journey. Finally, at the very end I played the primary style once again but this time in a significant secret: A proof that all things will end well, if you offer it adequate time.
Well then, that's it for today! Thank you for reading my video description!
I hope you liked my Suzume no Tojimari Soundtrack Collection – due to the fact that I truly like doing medley-type plans.
I am currently looking forward to viewing the next Makoto Shinkai film – and I can't wait to see what kind of story we will experience next. Until now we have actually defeated a comet (Your Name), a weather dragon (Weathering with you) and this time, a huge earthquake worm. What's next, I wonder (笑).
PS: The postcard you are seeing in this video was an unique gift I got from the theatre after seeing the "Suzume no Tojimari – Blu-ray variation" screening of the movie last week in Japan.
See you next time again!
Animenz.

Yeah, I knew it—this performance turned out absolutely and stunningly beautiful, as always. Thank you bringing me and everyone else joy, Animenz! ❤
Yessir
He’s so talented that’s really beautiful !!
Finally an anime that we can open the door without getting stab
Lol
Bro can’t move on from Oshi no Ko trauma
@Natsader csm too 😢
This is why you should have door chains
Either getting killed by a stalker or a giant worm.
Wow… It’s a medley!!!! Great! I’ve watched the film and love it. Music was great as always… Looking forward to Animenz’s rendition of it.
Wow. Amazing 👏👌
This was a rollercoaster of awesomeness, period.
Your style really matured a lot since when you started… undoubtedly the best anime pianist on this platform, thank you for your beautiful performance!
animenz being the best anime pianist on yt goes without saying 😂
you could just say pianist too
@michael garner not pianist lol but best anime arranger and player 🙂
Love it
Animenz, I don’t know if you’re seeing this, but this piece of yours are really magnificent and it stirs my heart. Keep on making more anime songs arrangement!
This melody 🎶 is just heavenly, I just can’t get it out of my mind ☺️😊
❤
I recently bought the Suzume book to read, and I guess I will have to finish the book while listening to this. This is just beautiful and poetic (musically). Good job once again!
By the way, if I only have 5 minutes limit to play this arrangement in front of the entire school, which parts do you think should I keep?
Here are my thoughts of this arrangement:
Part 1: Suzume: I like the as simple as possible thought process in 1:16 with a sustained left hand, followed by some difference in 1:35 with the left hand playing the sparkling melody in the originally that reminds me the first trailer release a year ago…
Part 2: I like how the foreboding atmosphere is shaped with the high registers in the start, while the notes are constantly falling in pitch so convey a sense of deepness (just like how the worm is falling down) By the way, the staccatos in 3:26 gives me vibes from your Bios and I beg you arrangement, but seriously nothing beats your flexible hands-on 3:49 where the D and the E are well-timed played and ends in a foreboding way.
Part 3: But nvm! It’s a peaceful atmosphere. And also 4:53 is a perfect demonstration of “nothing the hardest piano pieces sounds the best”, because it’s just pure beauty although with dry octaves. The direction where the LH keeps descending and the RH keeps ascending really gives a really touching contrast, reminds me in the cinema watching when Suzume flips the notebook from 3.9 and 3.10 and then 3.11 onwards is purely black…
Part 4: The keys speaks more than a million words. Just simple LH and octaves combo, followed by some scales, is enough to make a piano arrangement sounds like a museum of art. 7:41 is just giving me “Sincerely” vibes and speaks for Suzume’s journey itself because the scales with the bass is just the perfect combo
By the way, I bet 6:00 will be the most replayed part, if not is the major key ending of Suzume.
Anyway, this is by far one of your most beautiful arrangements you’ve ever done Animenz! Your arranging skills have kept on improving over time.
How About 0:39 Part , You Will Get A Lot Of Fame , Every Student Will Just Take Ur Name
When I saw that Animenz uploaded a new video tonight featuring the music from the animated film “Suzume no Tojimari”
and it was an over 8 minutes medley, it brought not only surprise but also a multitude of complex emotions…
Because on the day “Suzume no Tojimari” was released in theaters, I couldn’t wait to go and watch it, and I ended up seeing it twice. I loved everything about it,
from the storyline, visual design, theme songs,and the soundtrack.
In the story, Suzume embarks on her journey, which is essentially a journey of reconciliation with her past and self-healing.
When Suzume passes through that door and sees her childhood self, tears welled up in my eyes…
My hometown is a city in Taiwan that was hit by a massive earthquake that shook the world in 1999.
Since that day, both my hometown and my perspective on life have never been the same, unforgettable.
The story and this soundtrack medley continuously evoke emotions, just like the door that opened and unleashed memories from my past.
Regarding the performance of this suite, the third piece, “戸締まり,” is the most memorable for me…
The playing style at 3:50 is truly stunning,
and from 6:00 onwards, the arrangement uses the piano keys to tell moving lines from the dialogue in the story:
“I am your tomorrow.”
“You will also like others in the future and will meet many people who like you very much.
Although you may feel dark now, the morning will always come!”
From 6:35 to 6:50, the right hand repeats the rising scale, paving the way for the new life that is to come.
It’s like finally mustering the courage to let go of the past and move step by step towards the future we desire!
What touched me the most is that whether it’s director Makoto Shinkai or Animenz,
they console us, the survivors, through the film’s story and the piano,
reminding us that we don’t have to deliberately forget our pain, as what we thought was lost will forever remain in our hearts.
From 7:41 until the end, this section is not found in other piano arrangements, like a signature that shows Animenz’s personal style!
(especially like the part played in the major key.)
And it gives us an imaginary future full of hope and bright colors!
I am grateful that Animenz didn’t rely on flashy techniques in this medley.
He chose to convey his sincere emotions, based on his understanding of this story,
and told the audience in music about Suzume’s mood transformation during this journey.
I can only say that everything is just right💜
I hope you’ll find peace of mind.🍀🚪🪑
@アニー Thank you for your warm wishes🥰
Now my life is full of energy, don’t worry!
Animenz, thank you for your perfect arrangement and performance. Every time I watch your performance, I am always in admiration🌟
For today’s Suzume Medley, I found a few things that are different from your usual arrangement…
The first is the bass part of Part 1: I noticed that the bass you used this time can be described as “quality over weight”. It is really wonderful to use just the right bass to create the ethereal feeling of the singer’s solo!
In Part 2, you perfectly interpreted the treacherous feeling of the chorus with the piano, which is very ingenious! What I have to mention is the clean pedal stepping/release from 3:26~3:49, worthy of being a Steinway Artist (笑)
When it came to Part 3: Closing the Door, I had to admit that this was the worst scene I’ve ever cried in a movie theater. Especially at 4:52, as soon as the faint but clear treble came out, it brought me back to the moment when Lingya was reluctant to close the door in the movie… No matter how many times I watched the scene, it was very worrying 😭
Finally, with the change of music style, we came to Part 4: KANATA HALUKA. This is the climax of the whole song. The low and firm Bass seems to tell Suzuya that the journey of continuing to move forward and bid farewell to the past will not stop, and it is also the greatest comfort to the victims of 311…
Finally, thank you again for arranging such a wonderful suite, let our ears receive another baptism💙 Looking forward to your next work🚪
Alan
I just want to say, that I absolutely loved this movie and I went to the cinema several times to re-watch it.
And every time, it was just such an unforgettable experience. Makoto Shinkai’s animation work and cinematography is simply next-level.
Also, I cried many times at the final scene:
“Who are you, big sister?”
– “I am your tomorrow”
Just too good… (´；ω；｀)
animenz pls do メリーゴーランド from lonely castle in the mirror and its ost !
映画にどうしても行きたかったのに、終わってしまいました…こんな素敵なメドレーを聴かせてもらって胸を打たれたので、DVDが出たらアニメンズさん経由の理由で絶対に見たいです👀➰🚪🪑
アニメンズさんのアレンジも常にnext-levelです😆👍
You can arrange it so wonderfully, why did idol do that?
OMG AGREE 😭
Thank you bless us with one of favourite anime movie ❤💎
Здесь божественно всë, и настолько, что Ваше видео даже заставило меня всплакнуть🤧
Большое спасибо❤ Слушать Вас одно удовольствие)
Поддерживаю!
Animenz covers are just so refined . The sound of each note echoes just perfectly, the feeling is a bit hard to comprehend but deep down it is profound that’s for sure. It’s fair to say that animenz arrangements and playing style is highly inspired by classical music, the musicality and repertoire says it all. Honestly speaking, I just admire this sort of work to a high extend but at the same time I do not wish to play like this either, I still wanna stay with my own playing style and repertoire and make it to a highly advanced level cuz originality is everything. This journey of ours is like a river, everyone choosing a different path to flow but in the end we all are going to meet in the ocean. Thank You Animenz for such great performances, you are the inspiration of thousands and millions, including me of course and to everyone reading this, Wishing you all the best with whatever that’s going on in your lives! We all are going to make it to our dream!!
Thank you Animenz for arranging the soundtrack medley of “Suzume no Tojimari”
without making fans wait long.
And the arrangement of four tracks at once is very thoughtful for those who have difficulty choosing🫶
It’s true that Animenz’s special medley are the most satisfying for discerning ears👏👏👏
感謝Animenz這次不用讓粉絲們等很久便安排了<鈴芽之旅>的原聲帶音樂組曲。
並且一次安排4首曲目，對於有選擇障礙的人而言非常貼心🫶
果然還是Animenz的特別組曲最能滿足挑剔的耳朵!!
He’s so talented !
I must say, you nailed Sky Over Tokyo. While Suzume instantly caught my eye in the trailer, the vocals in Sky Over Tokyo amazed me just as much. I knew you were eventually going to release a cover for one of the songs from the movie, but I was kind of sad thinking you would only cover one. I am now extremely happy that you made a medley.
An excellent arrangement of the main OSTs glued into one giant medley. Thank you for showering us with all these beautiful multi-handed renditions, especially at 5:30🙏
Oh my god i love this!
You’ve given the best birthday present i have had in years!!!!
This medley was so powerful that i forgot everything else and got immersed in this beautiful melody that you played so gracefully.
You’ve made this my birthday ever !!🎉🎉
Love you animenz❤❤
東京上空大好きなので、ピアノカバーが聴けて嬉しすぎます😭😭😭
