Download .txt[00:00] When you stop to think about some of the best anime ever made, there's a number of factors that people come up with to justify their choices. Obviously, animation quality is a huge factor since we're talking about, you know, animation.
[00:14] If the said piece of animation has good animation, then naturally it will be deemed as good animation. You're learning. Other factors may include things like incredible depth of characters or a streamlined progression of the story and impact frames.
[00:31] Lots and lots of impact frames! But one aspect that I think a lot of anime fans tend to overlook is the audio side of things, aka sound vibrations that sound pleasant to one's ear holes, aka music.
[00:45] For those of you who don't know, I'm a huge music nerd. In fact, I've been a music nerd probably longer than I've been an anime nerd, which is very blasphemous to say on a channel with this particular name on it.
[00:57] And I started actually playing classical piano from a very young age and was in a bunch of bands back when I was in school. And oh yeah, I also happen to just make music on the side. So if you'd like to check that out and are curious,

[01:25] And I also feel in a weird way. It's a heavily underappreciated and almost Misunderstood aspect of the medium of anime as well. So the question needs to be asked then what makes music in anime so powerful and
[01:40] Why should we even care about it? But before we begin a quick word from the good friends of the channel and sponsor for today Sakuraka. Sakuraka is a monthly Japanese artisan snack box that supports local snack makers across Japan.
[01:53] Each box coming with 20 traditional, authentic and artisan Japanese snacks, including Japanese teas and a special Japanese tableware. And of course the theme for this month is Valentine's Day. Now if you guys have seen your fair share of rom-com anime, you'll know that Valentine's Day in Japan is all about the gift of giving.
