  • As for why I actually "wandered" into this video. I wanted to ask if anyone knows where I can find a good midi file of this? I wish to learn and play it on my keyboard.

  • People tend to like clannad, air, and kanon better than angel beats. But for some reason, I like angel beats better than all 3.

  • @hellokittiex3 They all are Jun Maeda's imagination after all. For me, Clannad share an equal topspot with Angel Beats! =)

    Then you got the fact that Kanon, AIR and Clannad originate from Visual Novels. Whilst Angel Beats! originate from a general media project.

  • The beginning of this tune. For me it describes how Kanada must've felt when she was all alone, fighting against the others. Luckily the song brightens up. And that's when she finally joins them :)

  • I agree with MuSicNvrsLeEpS97 , that's why at the end some student says "he is waiting for someone" something like this. He's waiting Kanade to come back from death again.(my thoughts still)

  • Comment removed

  • There seems to be a plot hole. Kanade supposedly received Otonashi's heart, which could obviously only happen after he died. This tells us that Kanade had to die after Otonashi. However, when Otonashi arrives in the afterlife, Kanade is already there, and the characters suggest that she has been for some time. Unless there's some weird "time doesn't flow normally here" situation, or Otonashi's soul avoided Purgatory for a few years, something is amiss.

    Do they give an explanation for this?

  • @AutoTunedSoul I have been wondering that for some time, but I never really figured out a way to word it. My thoughts were that maybe Kanade was in a coma when she was in purgatory with Otonashi's heart, still alive. Or maybe that Otonashi really did take a while to get to purgatory

  • @AutoTunedSoul Never saw explanation for it but there is a chance that his soul had most likely wondered somewhere especially since he had amnesia

  • @AutoTunedSoul actually, because otonashi had a fufilled life, he isnt suppose to be there at all. But because, it has been some time and his soul is starting to forget all about it, thus he was brought to there some time later.

  • @AutoTunedSoul There's no time in after life?

  • @AutoTunedSoul They do not explain this, but in a world where dead students go to an afterlife school, it isn't very hard to imagine that time is not an issue there, is it?

    But no, it's not explained.

  • @AutoTunedSoul I think I know why! But first: sorry for bad English, I'm Italian. ^-^"

    So, Otonashi didn't have to go to Purgatory, because at least he found a sense to his life, but he went there only to realize Kanade's dream. He went to Purgatory a lot of time after his death because at beginning he couldn't go there. If he were there is only thanks to Kanade.

    Hope I made you understand with my bad English. ^-^"

  • @AutoTunedSoul I wondered that some time too, but it is explained by Otonashi in the very last episode.

    Otonashi lived a fulfilled life, but lost his memory. Due to that his "soul" wandered aimlessly around for some time, before finding that school. The afterlife in this project is portrayed as a place people go to when they died with regrets. The only regret Kanade had, was not being able to thank the person who donated his heart: Otonashi.

  • @AutoTunedSoul Then again, one other thing I did not find a clear answer to...

    Kanade lived an life with regret, she dies one day with that regret, and wanders to the place without trouble (Otonashi had, since he suffered from amnesia)

    It feels like he was meant to lose his memory and meet up with Kanade, so she can say her thanks. Coincidence? Or did something really move them like puppets to have their regrets vanished by Otonashi?

  • Whenever I listen to this it makes me feel as if something important is missing in my life.... am I the only one that feels this?

  • awwwww I wanna watch angel beats! againshippomorrell

  • This anime should be a requirement for every new anime lover

  • i get goosebumps as soon as 1:59 starts :3

  • @supercartoony95 iget goosebumps from the whole song ;)

  • @supercartoony95 Welcome to the club :P

  • Does this have a repeat button...?

  • @FavVocaloid You must pressed it too many times that YouTube had to hide it from you.

  • @FavVocaloid Place the word "replay" before youtube in the url, so it gives replayyoutube com/watch?v=....

    That will autoreplay the video.

  • this is so beautifull, i can`t even describe how i feel about this song

  • Is it wrong to love a fictional character? Kanade... this is not supposed to happen. i can't get her out of my head... the pa-pain is un-unbearable... i ca-can't stop T_T

  • @53C71028

    i used to be in love with kakashi, drool i know how you feel

  • @53C71028 I know that feel, bro

  • I have this weird sad but happy feeling when I listen to this...=\

  • Ill add this to the list of songs that make me cry T.T so far all of them are from angel beats

  • Sounds like something from final fantasy

  • @Flonnefan1 i have to agree there when it gets to the piano it really sounds like it could be from FFXIII

  • Great music with alot of feeling i just cant remember when this played in the show maybe i was more focused on the show

  • @SaintsFear The place I remember it best was during Otonashi's memory of his death. It was very touching.

  • @LoorKato hmm maybe i guess the music fit so well i couldnt tell it was playing xD

  • @SaintsFear It did indeed. It was during the signing of the organ donation section on the medical cards by all the trapped people, starting with Otonashi.

  • I'm not one for commenting on videos, particularly not OST's of anime, but this is a gorgeous piece, not just in itself but in what it's about, and and how it does so. It seems to go through Kanade's heart throughout her life, starting out strong and vibrant, then slowly getting weaker and darker, until something (Otonashi's heart) allows it to be vibrant again, for a short while. It's quite amazing the level of thought that went into this.

  • Perhaps our eyes need to be washed by our tears once in a while, so that we can see Life with a clearer view again.

  • @Snellevleermuis That's true :) It made us realize how fortunate our lives are ♥

  • when i hear this, i can imagine the time span of life to restart its growth.

    clouds passing, seasons going.....

    Sun rising and sun setting....

  • I swear, if I could only find the piano version of this, I will learn it on piano.. It's so beautiful.

  • Whats an "OST"? i figured it was operation silent tornado or something.haha...yurippe's rubbed off me a bit...

  • @zanhonhz Original Soundtrack - OST

  • @zanhonhz lol

  • oh thank you ive been searching for this song man its still gets me emotional

  • a flute??? maybe a piccolo??

  • Can anyone tell me what instrument is being played at *1:13*

  • KANADE!!!!!!!!!

  • Does anyone realize that this is the song that plays when Otonashi decides to donate his organs to another person? Kanade is the one that recieved his heart, and this music suits it very well.

  • @Qackool - What?! Kanade received his heart?!

  • @ColorlessDusk I guess you didn't pay attention in the anime.

  • @Shinigami186 - i did so, i just so happen to miss that. I don't get how he died before her and then she was already in that world before him. . .

    Sorry......

  • @ColorlessDusk

    You missed the big reason which explains why Kanade is in the Afterlife School? O.o

    And, yeah, it seems that when they die, doesn't relate to when they arrive in the Afterlife.

  • @ColorlessDusk it is a common belief that time does not exist in the afterlife or flows on a different level; think of "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe"

  • @ColorlessDusk One theory is that Otonashi couldn't go to the afterlife until everyone who had an organ from him died

  • @Qackool That just mind fucked me i so many ways

  • @123mario619 *in so many ways

  • @Qackool If Kanade is the one that got Otonashi's Heart then how come she was there much longer than he was?

  • @Lucchini2300 its a supernatural world, could be that they don't all come in order of death :) Wouldn't be surprised if time was twisted seeing as the kids dont die or age in that world

  • @Qackool I noticed that on my seventh rewatch ^-^

    Oh, AND when i got his heart

  • @Qackool kinda brings meaning opening title doesnt it "My Soul,Your Beats"

  • @Qackool

    Um, Kanade died before the train incident..

  • @LazyLonerLayla She couldnt have died before the train wreck as Kanade receives Otonashis heart after the wreck which allows her to live longer, after she died she wanted to thank Otonashi for the heart she was given

  • @LazyLonerLayla ...but his heart saved her life...

  • My favorite track from Angel Beats OST!

  • KANADEEEEE!!!

  • I love the part that starts at 1:17 (i love the whole song). It reminds me of Final Fantasy IX.

  • @MortalWinter it reminded me of fort condor of ffvii at the start

  • lolz this song reminded me a bit of Final Fantasy 7 game in the beginning but still nice song.

  • Cool OST I'm waiting for second season

  • @ChucoboBawk that won't happen i believe

  • @Vince77777777 aw.....

  • This is truely a masterpiece for a masterpiece anime

  • You guys it's a fucking anime, stop arguing.

    Great song btw.

  • WOW! It's amazing the amount of people who think there was nothing left to be happy about after the end of episode 13, did anyone actually watch Right to the end?

  • @Curri3Saan I didn't watch the ending of angel beats at first, because I was too heartbroken. After rewatching it again I watched it to the ending, and cried with a smile on my face.

  • @Curri3Saan yes i did

  • @Curri3Saan i watched the ending ep before cuz i got kinda bored of the first eps but then kept watching entire series and i loved each one of the eps :D

  • @Curri3Saan I've been telling this to people for so long, but they don't listen!!!!

  • @Curri3Saan yeahactually i did

  • @Curri3Saan Some people think that's just in Otonashi's imagination

  • @CupCakeCrazy97 Wouldn't that be a tad cruel for Maeda's writing?

  • @Curri3Saan It seems like a scene they threw in at the last minute, because the original ending was too sad, but that means that some people consider the original the 'real' ending.

  • @CupCakeCrazy97 Fair enough, but it still happened. It makes more sense at least, and surely nothing bad comes from seeing a good ending for yourself. There was no original ending, this was not based on a VN or manga, it was first made into an anime, so it would still be part of the story.

  • This theme suits Kanade to a T.

    She's my favorite. I think I'm in love with her O_o

  • Yeesssss!!!!!

  • When I listen to this, I feel like something important is missing from me.

    Don't you feel the same way?

  • @Popius13 no because this song completed me

  • @Popius13 yah, and I know what that is :'(

  • Just Loving IT!

  • I want the piano sheet for this.

  • Amazing song! whenever i hear this i get chills on my arms. First heard this when that new student council guy was talking about how his father mistreated him and looked at his twin brother more like a son. This song started playing as soon as he started making his dad proud and he was doing pottery. FUKIN BADASS~!

  • Amazing song!

  • This song's bass/chords is so powerful.

  • I love this song..

  • This is the most saddest song in the whole soundtrack no the whole world i love it

  • This song..is truly beautiful.

  • What do you mean no duplicates of this song on a playlist? It's that awesome!

  • Watch my video instead of this one, because i am Kanade Tachibana.

  • @KanadeTachibana This made me laugh really hard.

  • I bet, i mean... i'm really funny.

  • @KanadeTachibana Your illusion has been broken!

  • @Shinigami186 I don't know what you're talking about?

  • @Shinigami186 If you're referring to me acting like Kanade, that's hilarious! xD

    I never acted, and never will. I am Peter, not Kanade. Kanade is a human, and i am an Immortal DEMON God. We are different, and you are a foolish mortal xD

  • @KanadeTachibana You dare call a follower of the great God Empress of the Universe, Suzumiya Haruhi, a foolish mortal? REPENT, PUNY HUMAN. REPENT!!!!!!!!

  • @Shinigami186 Me? Human?!?! Pathetic!

    I am your God! You should bow before me...

    Haruhi Suzumiya isn't a great Goddess, she is a supernatural being with the power of creation. 

  • @KanadeTachibana That was really funny! :3 Kanade is so sweet, and so are you :)

  • @KanadeTachibana Liar. Kanade-sama would have never said something like that. She would have said it differently.

  • @lataeyasmith Who the fuck said i was role-playing as Kanade?!?!

  • @KanadeTachibana You did.

  • @lataeyasmith You lie!

    I know that i never said that.

  • @lataeyasmith Fuck you, you random douche.

    Quit picking on Kanade!

  • @EverBIoom Whats your problem. Your the one who's being a douche.

  • @lataeyasmith You're a loser. She never said she was role playing as anyone, and you lied.

    Grow up!

  • @RiIeyBloom Your the one who needs to grow up.

  • @KanadeTachibana In Japan, it would be Tachibana Kanade.

  • @KanadeTachibana lol XD

  • @KanadeTachibana I love you now.

  • @rillera25 Eh? O.O

  • @KanadeTachibana Kanade would never post a comment like that. :r

  • @taikodreamer You're right, she never would.

    But who said i was role-playing as Kanade???

  • @KanadeTachibana You said you were Kanade, actually. (:

  • @taikodreamer My USERNAME is KanadeTachibana, I think you misunderstood.

  • wow. 0:56 made my heart melt. I loved when the piano joins in. :)

  • Is there sheet music for this?

  • @LazyMatt12 I'm planning on transcribing it over the next week for 3 clarinets and 3 flutes, if that helps, and I can finish I can send it to you.

  • this story touched my heart.. mm.. so Otonashi is still stuck there? was it like a "history will repeat itself thing" since he regrets Kanade leaving and waits for her return?

  • Question: How did Kanade get to the world first if Otonashi died first??

  • @7bladeschnieder its my theory. otanashi died peacefully. his amnesia caused him to bug into the after life school and maybe it takes a long time for that to happen. yuri and the members of the sss had bad lives with regret and got in earlier than otanashi. kanade regretted not being able to thank the person who extended her life. probably those with regret get in much faster into the after life school than a person who has their life fullfilled and has amensia like otanashi.

  • @7bladeschnieder but theres a possibility some members of the SSS died later than otanashi. however like i said, those with regret get into the after life school much faster than a bugged fullfilled soul like otanashi. i hope u get the gist of what im trying to get too. its complicated really, the series has yet to explain this inconsistency. i wish they would make season 2. i really like this anime a lot.

  • @Danerd9 I think there's a chance that God/Universe/Whatever deliberately sent Otonashi there to free those who refused to be move on. Almost like a messiah - someone of absolute goodwill. This is confirmed by the short clip in the OVA in which Otonashi is the student council president and offers help to a student with regret.

  • @WeViewStudiosFilms thats a fucking epic theory

  • Comment removed

  • relaxing :)

  • i love this song.

    it's so peaceful but very intense at the same time.

    idk there's something about it

    i love this OST is so beautiful

  • what name of is this song?¿

  • @9918andrea look at the title of the video geez = =

  • @Shinigami186 lol XD

  • Key's OST always make my heart beat fast

    Plz vote for Kanade and friend at International Saimoe League

  • @Tokito1504 I, for one, will vote for her so long as she doesn't go against Haruhi, Hinagiku, or Shana. In which case, I won't ;D

  • @Shinigami186 Haruhi is my faviorite char too but Hinagiku and Shana i unseen their anime but i know they are moe too :D

    I all support for Kanade-chan and Haruhi ,hope they dont go against

    thx u

  • @Shinigami186 But for me

    Kanade come 1st , Kanade come second , Kanade come third

    Kanade come 4th and 5th as well. I love Angel Beat the most from all Anime 60% from Kanade , 35% from Amazing storyline, 5% from SSS and Otonashi.

    You can call me Kanade#1 Fan

  • @yunakey3 actually I've encountered bigger Kanade fans before, so you're not.

  • @Shinigami186 Really then call me "Kanade#2" Fan or at least call me "Kanade-topten-fan".

    BTW I did suggest 2 Video as respond Video, would you mind approve ?

  • @Shinigami186 i think the person in the top comments has you beat there user name is Kanade Tachibana

  • @Tokito1504 Finally another person who knows this show as made by Key too! I thought I was the only one XD

  • This reminds me so much of Final Fantasy 9, it's part of why I love this OST. A lot of tracks feel very FinalFantasy-esque. I love it for what it is, as well. So many nice tracks.

  • This is so calming, and angel beats was such an inspiring anime, it definitely made a change in me. It's so beautiful.

  • I'll become an organ donator!

  • @Conheobeo

    Me too! I was hoping to freeze my body for either future revival, or to become an "organic freezer". (not any time soon I think).

  • One person doesn't like Kanade ):

  • apparently there will be a 2nd season, i can't remember when, but it will be a whole new cast and none of the old characters.

  • @Shinigami186 except for yuzuru he will be there

  • @Shinigami186 and it gets out in spring :D

  • @Shinigami186 Are you just guessing that it'll be a whole new cast or is it confirmed?

  • @TheboyWayne10 confirmed, can't remember where I read it though, or I'd link you. And it makes sense they'd use a new cast, what with this one having moved on already.

  • @Shinigami186 Tell me you're not lying. PLEASE TELL ME YOU'RE NOT LYING!!! (Even though I love the old characters [especially Otonashi and Kanade] but either way).

    AWESOME!!!! Now just to research the date...

  • The 1 dislike is the Devil

  • They should make a S2 of Yuzuru Otonashi and Kanade Tachibana continuing from where the anime left off.

    (Below is a little rant against the alternate ending)

    Not the alternate ending, I think that was a bad way to end the anime.

  • @calvcoll Apparently there is going to be one, but there are other reasons that could go against the possibility of being one. However, if they did make a Season 2 I would like to know more about Shiinna, TK and the rest of GirlsDEMO

  • @Galukxy Yeah, that would be cool with the others, or they could make another anime with roughly the same name and continue on from that point with just those two characters. Would be awesome to see though. Just the animes need to be more than 13 episodes long. The smaller anime series though seem to usually be the better ones - As shown by angel beats.

  • これも麻枝准の作曲なんだよな。

    やっぱりだーまえは神だな(。-_-。)

  • best anime i've ever seen! first it was Clannad, then after a damn long time K-on took the first place and just a week after i watched this.. new favorite ftw! ofc i've finished it :D

  • The Shadows disliked this button

  • @NegStarnite93

    After Otonashi became an organ donor. His heart was donated to IRL Kanade, who needed it to live. It was likely a coincidental and Kanade was grateful to the person who donated their organ for her to receive. She regrets not being able to thank him properly and feels bad for it. So she ends up in the position where she eventually meets him. It's genius story telling.

  • great

  • Every time I play this song in my room, it becomes a bright place, far, very far from reality.

  • masterpiece...each time this song plays, it give me chills and make me feel sad but happy at the same time ...beautiful song....angel beats one of the best animes ever made!!

  • I really need the piano scores for this... it's so pretty!! T_T..

    can someone please help me (link or file or anything!) ?? I'd appreciate it very muchs! <3
