A notable piece of work. Collaborations between anime works and artists who are popular not only in Japan but also overseas are sure to attract attention from various quarters.
Regarding the song provision, HYDE said, “I’m honored to be involved in a work that I love.
It’s the theme song for a popular anime, so I wonder if it’ll work well? I was worried, but
I was relieved to see the reference material that came from the Black Butler team.
It was all about the world view that I liked, with no trace of popular appeal (lol)
He said, “Now, let me create a ‘Black Butler’-like worldview in any way I like.”
I read a story called “The Green Witch” with a strong sense of gothic horror over and over again.
The process of shaping Ciel’s will and Sullivan’s destiny went smoothly.
Mirai Nakamura’s genius arrangement turned it into a wonderful song.
I can’t wait to see what kind of pictures will be included in the opening video.
Will “Black Butler” fans like it? ” commented.
Regarding the current project, Cö shu Nie Nakamura said, “I am very honored to have been asked to work on the project of the greatest work called “Black Butler” and the legendary HYDE!
In order to expand on the ideas and concepts that HYDE sent me, I was a little worried that he might get angry, but I was allowed to do whatever I wanted!
I’ve read the original manga many times, and it’s a work that I personally have a lot of fondness for, so I’d be very happy if people could enjoy the songs in the anime as well.
I can only thank the people who gave me this opportunity. I’m really looking forward to hearing it from you! Let’s real tie! ”, he commented on his thoughts on this work.
This is the first collaboration between Cö shu Nie, who has an innovative approach with a sound that is not bound by stereotypes, and HYDE, who is active worldwide such as L’Arc~en~Ciel/VAMPS/THE LAST ROCKSTARS,
