Y’ALL THE GIVEN SEQUEL MOVIE DROPPED

And, I’ve translated it 😃 👇👇👇

Take it with a grain of salt since I don’t have that much experience translating from jap

But it should at least allow you to get the gist of what’s happening :’)

Rb if you can, I want this to reach as many Given fan as it can!

GIVEN y El Mix de Hiiragi

¡Given esta de vuelta!

Y esta vez con un mix lleno de amores en secreto desde la infancia, sentimientos ignorados, malos entendidos y como siempre trauma.

Y es que la hora del adios definitivo ha llegado para los amantes de este anime por lo que... Hablemos del anime, el maga y la primera parte de esta última película.

I was so happy to see you grace my tl again - if only for a few posts. I miss your given metas and would LOVE to hear your take on syh's Straight and Parade and any predictions you might have for Umi e!

Thanks for the ask! It has been a while! I was going to do a proper analysis of the songs once I've seen the mix movie but I thought I might share some initial observations for Straight!

EASTER EGGS in SYH's STRAIGHT

Mafuyu's key in C minor, the relative minor key. The song is in Eb major, the relative major key. It's also what I call the sunshine key (Uenoyama's key) ☀️ which is the same key as all the songs on the Given mini-album release.

Chorus 0:22 has the same chord progression as the first part of Fuyunohanashi, which can indicate that Hiiragi and Shizu are also trying their best to heal from Yuki. Seriously, try singing the chorus of Fuyunohanashi on top of Straight's first chorus, they literally layer perfectly on top of each other!!!

CHORDS ARE SO INTERESTING HERE

Chord progression diverges from Fuyunohanashi in the second part of the chorus 0:41 to go from VI -> VII -> I, which is the same tiers di picardie chordal progression as Kizuato's (Given OP) ending as well as Yorugaakeru!!! This chord progression finishes in major to show that the boys are healing from Yuki and trauma.

Lyrics in that chord progression are super meaningful here

Kizuato "Whatever you left behind has now become my life".

Also Yoorugaakeru lyrics are "Look this Dawn is about to break that's why it'll be ok"

Straight: "I will keep singing until it reaches you"

Doesn't that sound like Hiiragi/Yuki/Uenoyama talking directly to Mafuyu???!! 🥹😭❤️🙏

Guitar Solo by Uenoyama has a delicious easter egg

1:01 same as the lyrics "Time and Time again" in Given's mini album track stagekara kiminisasagu. Meaning that time and time again he'll be here for Mafuyu ❤️😭

I am almost 100% certain that every other part of that solo is a reference to lyrics in Given songs because all the other bits are so I'll have to have another proper listen.

That's it! Hope this made sense coming from a music nerd's ramblings! ____

RAAAHHHHH!!!

[duamin]

tell me i'm not the only one who's currently super frustrated for not being able just to take a fucking flight to japan and buy a ticket to see given's movie in theatre.

i wanna hear syh's song for the first time in the movie so even if it was released i'm containing so hard to listen to it.

[pinkprimrose05]

This image gives off “Shh nobody will find your bodyyyyy” vibes there’s just something about how Yuugo is looking at me (Yuzu)

Ah yes, one of Yuugo's very, very sparse attempts at looking serious and actually succeeding. I never focused on this particular frame, honestly... but yeah, I feel like it'd be a tad weird out of context.

sobbing over the new given trailer. inject it into my veins!!!!

[marshmallow-namo]

He said it!! The thing that I wanted to hear from him!

After long 10 years, a decade!!! Masatomo Nakazawa appeared in an anime stage greeting event. In case of an anime movie, it's his first time. But in case of TV anime, it's his second time. It may sound trivial, but this event was significant to him as a voice actor. A comeback is a celebration.

First TV anime stage greeting event was of Dramatical Murder in 2014. And this time was of Given anime. It's second movie is "Given: Hiiragi Mix". In 2024.

He went back home after this event ended, and updated that he'll start YouTube live for a bit, but his fans' emotional words, after event reviews swayed him to hold the live for further one hour.

Was consumed by the overwhelming urge to Destroy a couple weeks ago. Made a collage about it.

This piece is made out of panels from the second tankobon volume of Lucky Star by Kagami Yoshimizu! It’s placed on four 8x10 canvas panels (plus two 4x4 panels) and sealed/glued together with Mod Podge. Each main panel took roughly 90 minutes to complete from start to finish!

Individual panels under the cut.

went out to see the new movie and the exhibition!
