Hi guys! Before I say anything else, let me emphasize that I used a little of Fonzi M's (0:01-0:15) and majority of Animenz's (everything else) arrangement for this video. I did simplify the second part of the chorus though because I'm just not playing the killer arpeggios by Animenz XD

On the 22nd of January this year, my friend requested that I play "A Cruel Angel's Thesis". And after more than 5 months, here it is! (Better late then never right?)

Regarding the piece, I initially wanted to play Animenz's arrangement but I found out the arpeggios at the beginning and the second part of the chorus is too hard for me to learn, much less play properly, and even lesser nail it in public. Hence, I snuck in Fonzi's beginning and simplified the second part of the chorus (which I still made mistakes in the end).

A Cruel Angel's Thesis is actually one of my most favorite Animenz arrangements out there, particularly due to the groove in the LH. However, my little amount of practice time may not have justified that.

I made quite a lot of mistakes as well, including stopping once and completely screwing up the glissando at the end. I do apologize and hope those mistakes do not ruin the experience.

Last but not least, my next public piano video will be released 2 weeks after this and it'll feature a proper Animenz arrangement (TV size only though). Stay tuned for that!

Thank you guys, see you in the next video!
