And even so, Magia was amazing. What can you expect from the studio version? Heaven on Earth? :dote:

Hell on Earth, actually :glasses:
 
Thank you for sharing the videos TSOM!

I may be exaggerating as usual but the performances were :nosebleed: fantastic! Especially Magia!

Yeah, it's too bad about the awful mixing but at least that didn't detract charm from the performance too much. :dote:
 
Magia's live is awesome...even there're so many annoying things from the sound engineering... I hope I can hear more awesome violin, guitar, and drum from the recording version... :dote: ..and also Wakana's high-note chorus...(I wonder that who did these part in the recording version..maybe herself, Hanae, or Fion... so I think it would be better to wait for another Magia live if I want to hear Wakana singing those lines clearer... :shy: .)

Wakana sang it.
 
second page: (sorry for any mistakes and spelling mistakes lol it's almost midnight here and i'm kinda like this: --> :blood: haha)

the tour sounds like fun

-- the new song MAGIA has been increasing in sales. What was your first impression of the song?

wakana: i think the intro is very unusual but the feeling that came with breaking the song was immensely strong. after we finished MAGIA, we came to understand the meaning of the words. we asked ourselves: is this real? that was our confusion. i think part of the melody is fantastic and the other part was clogged.

keiko: “doubtful...cool...doubtful” were my impressions. because i think the three of us were singing, two of us had to alternate. but when i first heard the melody, i was impressed and i thought this song would be cool.

hikaru: when i heard the back sound, i thought it would make sense to sing in tune, but now listening to the upper tone, it sounds different.

--the anime MAHOU SHOUJO MADOKA MAGIA has gotten better, hasn’t it?

wakana: it’s a very pretty picture. at first i thought “this is the anime for MAGIA?" but then there are a lot of serious parts, not just cute. because humans write lyrics about being able to use magic, the power is always there in our imaginations. i think that is reflected in the anime altogether. i think you’ll be convinced when you listen to the music and watch the anime.

keiko: we were very thrilled to hear about magical girls (lol), but MAGIA? from the beginning, the first episode was a battle scene, and i think MAGIA was a perfect ending to that story like everyone else thinks.

hikaru: i see MADOKA MAGIA as a dark gloomy time and the story flows. the ending of the second and third episode flow into the match and that was when i was able to understand the story. I understood the meaning that ms. kajiura put into the music.

keiko: when i was a child i saw my dream, however as i grew, reality and ideals became different in an increasing rate and i think that didn’t go very well...... i think a dream is something fundamental and i want to embrace it. I believe in my feelings, and i think that is stronger than magic. i’m too shy to say, but when i sing MAGIA, i feel like it’s real. it was easy to put feeling into the recording, but the focus on the song should be the lyrics.

hikaru: i’d like to sing out my own feelings or experiences into these lyrics from my past, from reading lyrics from anime, and sometimes i had to be reminded of that sense that when lyrics are linked alike, there are discoveries. therefore watching the anime and thinking more on the lyrics, you are able to go forward so early in the anime.

-- MAGIA shares the same name as your spring tour, right?

wakana: although it is two months before we go on tour, last year’s last tour date at CC lemon hall came and ended fast. this time, the new song MAGIA , like the title, will have you thinking about magic overnight. even though kalafina looks different again, i hope that you still enjoy and have fun.

keiko: spring tour is the first time we are touring this year, so come see us and i want everyone to spend their time with a smiling face. i want to feel like that one day. we look forward to you and your surprises, so please look forward to seeing us.

hikaru: as for the spring tour, toyama has been added. it is my hometown and making me feel a lot stronger about this tour. in this tour, i hope more people will grow fond of kalafina when they come to see us sing live.
 
I just noticed that I like song better if I change the last chorus and make it higher. Bizarre :XD:
 
Could anyone please upload the rips to mediafire? Youtube and megaupload is blocked in China :blood:
