rather than complaining about the set list, let us all keep in mind that they gave their efforts on this live.we can be grateful for that at least.reading selfish complains is a bit annoying.it's not that were better than yuki.it's too hypocrite whoever it may be
I edited my post, Murrue, to make you happy . And I do agree that reading selfish complaint is a bit annoying, because I'm reading one of them. Which is your selfish complaint about my selfish complaint.

you don't have to edit your post just to make me happy coz i don't need that.i assume you have read the previous posts which are also annoying.you all have the right to be disappointed and criticize but there is also in need of rational judgement.in general.

...and i was referring to all the complains i read here not in yours particularly

if you think it's not annoying then don't pay attention to it
 
LOL Can't believe I'm reading this.
Let's all be happy! All of them did their best and we as fans can't criticize they at all because we are obviously not better than them! So, we cannot criticize anyone in the whole world as well, since everyone is equal! Peace, world, peace!
Well, I'm tired of this discussion. If you want to be happy and think it is terrible (lol) that I badmouth people, than so be it. I prefer to do things my way.

Anyway...
I...am a bit skeptical about Kajiura always praising whatever she is working on. Can anyone enlight me as whether she has ever said openly "this anime/game sucks"?
 
^ I dont remember any case but I find it quite logical... if she praises her work, more will watch it and thus the creator are going to hire her again. Besides I do believe that she likes every project she' working on because she chooses carefully before applying do work for one XD.
 
Yeah, I agree with you. It's just that sometimes I have the impression she exaggerates a little in her opinion about the series. Just like she said she cried in every scene of Madoka despite knowing all of them (I'm not criticizing the series, but I find this comment a little bit exxagerated). I also remember that in the KnK interview she said that she sometimes would jump out of fear from the movies (how she was able to feel fear when watching KnK is beyond my comprehension...).

But maybe that's just because I'm always skeptical with composers/actors/etc. when they talk about the work they participated in. The only time I remember that the staff really criticized whatever they were working on was with Gundam 00 (but there are probably more cases that I'm not aware of).
 
I'm not accostumated with gore and I get scared easily with movies.
I just don't think gore is scary. It has impact on the viewer, but scary is another thing.

Anyway, I don't see KnK as a series that will arouse fear in most viewers. To be shocked with some gore scenes here and there is one thing, but fear is...different. But since you were kinda frightened with it then maybe I'll have to consider other possibilities :XD:

With the impression I have of her personality, I don't know if someone like Kajiura-sensei would ever say that :XD: I think she'd probably just say nothing at all if she didn't like it.

Why didn't Yuriko sing MLFCS~~~ :cry:

Oh, that would've been nice, you're right... :rain:

Well, I'll take anything as long as I can watch E.G.O. :dote:
 
Concerning Yuki's words, I can partly relate to them - there were a number of scary moments in KnK (achieved through suspence, not gore), and as to Madoka... It depends on whether you get attracted to the characters, since if you do, half the show is a big tearjerker. :TdT: It's all about different people get different impressions, and if the show didn't give you the impression described in Yuki's words, it's natural to be surprised at them. :XD:
Speaking of praise... First, there is solidarity and second, Yuki doesn't seem like an obscure musician struggling to get some projects for a living. If she openly doesn't like the script she's given (openly meaning differently from the position "It's hardly going to join anime classics, but it's nice qnd passable, and I have time and resourses to help the folks out", although we don't know if Yuki ever takes it), why would she join the project in the first place? :ohoho:

I'd like to think that she's big enough now that she can pick and choose what projects she wants to work on - if she doesn't like it, then she can turn it down b/c there are other projects available.

To be honest (and at the risk of dating myself), the ONLY anime series that I've seen that Yuki hasn't had a hand in is Trigun and Full Metal Alchemist. I generally don't watch a lot of anime but if it has the words "Music by Yuki Kajiura" anywhere, then I'm more than willing to give it a spin eventually.

I think that you're right..., but come'on girl...I think it may be different in Western world, but in Asian world, it's a kind of 'manner' in almost all societies..praise the project that you joined and try to promote it, and not to criticize it out loud, or at least, you shouldn't officially criticize it. (but it may be ok to write it in your diary, personal blog, talking with your friends, etc.)

Like Ninetales said...if you like it, praise it..and if you don't like, just keep quiet. There's nothing good for you to criticize the work that you did. Especially, when it's not your part, but it's your co-workers' part. Well..it's ok to criticize your own music because it made by your own, but not the parts that are done by others.. Some Asian artists do that and they're considered as odd balls in their societies. (even criticizing their own works is still 'quite weird' for Asian people.)

You may call it 'unsincereness', but Asian people know it as 'manners'. I know that Western societies don't have much idea about it..but it's a cultural difference. As a fan, we know that we always need to take such praises about artists' own works 'with a pinch of salt'. :ayashii:

:nophoto:

Thanks :bow:

Wow, someone had the camera set on sunlight mode when it should've been set to Tungsten. They should've color-corrected that picture... :uh..:

Otherwise, I think it's adorable. Kajiura-sensei doesn't look as exhausted as she did in the picture on the stage. But Yuriko doesn't look happy for some reason :confu:

Any DVD announcement yet? :plz:
 
^
Nope, haven't heard any recent news regarding a possible Blu-ray/DVD yet. Maybe we'll have to bet on the Yokohama leg.

And yeah, I definitely agree about the photos. So far, the only news site which ever publish correctly exposed and tasteful photos is OH News. All the other websites are :uh..: . Well, maybe hotExpress and Ascii are decent.
 
^ Here's hoping :TdT:

I'm always hoping for some beautiful and epic photos...but if they didn't get a picture of Keiko and Koichi-san rocking out during Ongaku, then it might be too much to ask for :ohoho:

As long as they get a nice picture of Kajiura-sensei at some point.

I could reply about how much I disagree about mainly everything that you said, but I just have this to say: let's stay with our beliefs and actions, whether it comes from the ocident or the orient or wherever it may come from (because I can guarantee that my attitude comes from myself rather than from the place of the planet that I live in). Anyway, that's it ^^

good explanation.i think that's already it.main point, in Asian culture,watching what you say and how you criticize others.
 
^It's just because I saw George&Nick tried to figure out the reasonable reason behind Yuki's behavior..though it's quite easy for Asian people like us to see that it's just a regular thing in our societies to do like that... esp. Japan is a country which is so famous (?) for the extremely very strict manner.

off topic: But..well...even among Asian countries, there are a lot of cultural differences. A famous example of culture shock when Thai tourists visitted Japan is when they see Buddhist temple in Japan selling a Buddha model holding Kitty in his hand. It's a very regular thing in Japanese style Buddhism, but it's able to make people from a country, which Buddhism is the deep root of its culture, like Thailand really shocked. (and I guess that most of people in the world don't understand why Thai people is shocked with that issue, no matter what that Thai is a Buddhist or not.)
 
^OFF-TOPIC (a bit)i do get your point.anyway thanks for clearing it up for them,as most Asians have common cultures too esp when comes to manners.cultural differences is also there.for example in Japan,when slapping a person means discipline,in the Philippines it means insult.

yeah examples :XD:

since we learned in history about Buddha and Thai's, i understand how you people greatly honors him.(there's also Shiva?)
so Yuki's comments doesn't sound exag or insincere to me or to other Asians i think (sugarcoating just to please), but rather being polite.
