Kyoto Anime Live
It was a precious experience that could only be had in Japan, where anime culture is so vibrant. All three artists were incredibly skilled, beyond what I would expect from university students.

Participate in the conclusion of the Kyoto trip
I participated in the closing of my Kyoto trip. The location of the hotel in the Shimizu area was wonderful, and the night atmosphere was the best. Hearing well-known songs like Ghibli and NARUTO performed live, it was so moving I almost cried. The vocalist's voice was particularly impressive and gave me goosebumps. The sense of immediacy that can only be felt in a small venue of 50 seats is something that can never be experienced in a large concert hall. I will definitely come again.

The power of live sound!!︎
It's a must-visit spot for anime lovers. The moment I heard "Cruel Angel's Thesis" performed live, memories from my childhood flooded back, and I was speechless with emotion. The combination of violin, piano, and vocals is exquisite, and there is a raw power to the sound that cannot be conveyed in a recording. Although I attended alone, I felt a sense of unity with the other customers and never felt lonely. It's an experience you absolutely cannot miss when you come to Kyoto.

Kyoto Anime Live
I'm not very familiar with anime, but I participated as a music lover. To get straight to the point, you can enjoy it even if you don't know the anime. The performers' level was extremely high, and I was blown away by the violinist's technique and expressiveness. I was reminded once again of the beauty of Ghibli's music, which is comparable to classic masterpieces.

Must go!
It was one of the best concerts I have been to. There was piano, violin and singing and they were all very high class professionals. It was very beautiful. The atmosphere was really nice and I highly recommend it for anime fans and anyone that wants to enjoy music or experience Japan!
