AA SAKURA MANKAI

THANK YOU JOSEPH OF VERIZON! My internet has been a little jerk lately, so today I was like; that's it!! And I called the tech people. See, we got internet through Alltell before they were bought out by Verizon, which can make things difficult sometimes. I talked to this guy named Joseph who was immensely polite (he's in the right line of business) and now my internet is (at least for now) working better!

Sakura Mankai by Pinky Team / YUSH CClyrics! Miss Aiko enchants us first with her gorgeous voice, singing the lovely melody of this song to us and making our ears weep with epicness of it. Okay, maybe that's a little over the top, but seriously; I love this song, and Aiko sounds fantastic on it. I especially like her "no hito" ~ she can hit the low and high notes super well.

OMG Okie!! It's been too long since I've heard her in anything! She has one of the sweetest clearest voices ever and always sounds super darling. Sweet doesn't even cover how she sounds on this song, and she makes a great Ai. I love love the lower part of her solo, the "hoho so me" ~ it's beautiful.

Mitsuki is under the impression that she is horribly pitchy in this song. But I'm not even 'just being nice' when I say; she's not!! I just jumped about the dub listening to her solos, and really, it's only the "zutsu" on her first one at 1:03 that's noticeably pitchy. And I didn't hear any dischord in the chorus either, so she must not have been pitchy on it either!

1:15 is Rixie, & oh my gosh. One of the reasons I like this song is because of the low notes in the verses, they're brilliant! And in Rixie's line, her "nai no" makes me SO happy. Her whole solo is great, but that part there is like a cherry on top of a made-of-win cake. Gah, just saying that makes me want cake so bad now *shot* Cherry cake.

I've always really liked Mari in this song, at 1:28 Miya has her line and she sounds so cutesweet! Following her is Micchy on Hitomi's little "egao da ne" solo, which is lovely but not very long. I like her "ne" ~ Right after that, at 1:42 is Ai/Ok/Mi together, leading up to the chorus with their pretty "medatte masu yo" & then BAM MIND BLOWN.

CHORUS TIME. I can't stop smiling as I listen!! I could MARRY the first "aa sakura mankai" ~ This is all so so so mega super crazy amazing sounding! The blending on group parts is epic, and the girls sound gorgeous on the melody. Love love love. fnwefje kewnk gkjnejkrg!! All of the solos in the first chorus or magnificent too! Oh, and each girl got one; the cast number and scripting seem well thought out.

There are so many solos in this song that I don't know if I'll talk about every one of them; otherwise this would be a huge entry, lol. 2:57 is Rixie again on the chorus, I really like the echo! I can't remember if it's in the original song, I want to say it isn't, but either way it sounds cool and she sounds great! Next is Miya with her cute voice, and like on her last solo, I really like her lower part, "mete yo"

3:21 is Micchy, yay for a longer line! It's not that she sounds soft here, but sings with a soft tone ? it's very sweet and befitting of the song. I especially like her ending "no" ~ it's so soothing and pretty. Aiko follows with another lovely solo, before we reach the pre-chorus once more at 3:46. Okie has the first line, uwah, she sings with such emotion! And I really like her "wow"

Mitsuki has the small "watashi demo" before the second trio of the dub by Ri/Mi/Micc, which sounds splendid, though there is a tiny bit of discord on the ending "ra" ~ The rest of the song is literally all chorus; but hey, I'm not complaining. This really is a wonderful dub. Maybe because I love this song so much, and adore this dub so much, it's blinding me to anything that might need work, lol. But I totally love it. Congrats to Miya and Aiko on their debut as generation 4 members!
