{A.M.V.} Free!! x Uta no Prince-sama / Mamoru Miyano (Inspired): “Canon” (Second opening theme of Uta no Prince-sama Maji Love 2000%) {In that series, Miyano voices “Tokiya Ichinose”. This is not sung by “Tokiya” technically, but might give Tokiya’s image.} I used Miyano’s inspiration to make a Free!! A.M.V.! {It is my very first for this fandom, though I watched as it aired!}

Series: Free!! (C) Kyo-Ani “Canon” (C) Broccoli-Games / ELEMENTSGARDEN {Note: This is a FAN-work}

Characters/Pairs Featured: - RinHaru {Rin x Haru} - Rintori / NitoRin / RinAi {Rin x Aiichirou Nitori} - Ai x Rin x Haru as poly-ship or open relationships; (implied by the end) Feel free to view your preference!

My Commentary:

I would like to propose a Concept - Haru, Rin and Ai all have MULTIPLE HANDS. (This A.M.V. showcases the dynamics / story progression of all three; each of Haru and Ai with Rin, briefly, all acknowledging each other) Contains spoilers for: Free!! Seasons 1 & 2; {Rin; Haru; Ai scenes} “The Final Stroke” Part 2 start; but nothing specific from Final Stroke’s ending {Yet?}. (TFS Part 1 shows only in ‘scenic’ scene.) Others appear as support.

(Though I admit I am personally biased towards RinAi fandom-wise, I’ve also enjoyed the canon dynamic between Rin and Haru.) However, this work was partly made / inspired by an old mutual; this mutual really loved Rin+Haru dynamic too, so this is made in support! {They also like everyone as friends, as do I.} I’m not able to make much for this fandom usually (in the past, I did briefly rp {role-play} Ai, but do not actively write fic or anything much outside rp) but for the most part, this A.M.V. was very fun to make! Happy 10~ years anniversary to Free!! Time Spent: - About an hour and 30 min on the 1st verse + chorus. - Almost 4 and a half hours / a whole evening on the rest. - I am not even kidding when I say this thing must have crashed my editor (Windows Movie Maker... it’s an older version, sigh) at least x30+~50 times while attempting to finish Nitori’s scenes timing and the ending. As a result, this is technically a “first draft” (I know ending’s bit rushed, but I tried!) until I can go back and add in more timings and scene cuts! (Someday!...) - My editor tends to crash pretty frequently if I attempt 50+ clips; sometmes even after 20~ clips or so. This one has just about 40 clips, with bonus KyoAni’s own timings helping to smooth out the rest! - Sub-titles cannot be included at this time; I apologize! (However, lyric{s} below the ‘read more’!) It is recommended you view them in full (or in sections) before watching! - If you watch, I’d really love to hear your thoughts; I put a lot of effort in!

Summary:

“I only swim FREE!.” - Haru

... DO YOU?

“I feel so useless.” - Ai

“A sight you’ve never seen before...”

{Lyric[s] Preview!}:

Distant feelings on a {‘SILENT’} hill, … all of my love… (Get ready!)

“Do not tremble in this cruel world…” Through the kiss of a song, better than thousands of words

We can give something up ({I} swear to you) Just to live in this moment (Hold my hand) For your sake and for mine, we’re ready to take off now…together!

“SO, let’s GO!”

Your beloved voice becomes a powerful impulse That makes dreams reality As our heartbeats synchronize… Ah, exceeding even miracles, (Feel your song!) Up among the stars, (Feel my song!) Until that dream Reaches the unseeable FUTURE, I’ll PLAY this song! {“Free”}

I was scared of truth’s LIGHT…

(Lyric{s} via Uta-pri Wikia!)

“Canon” (description via Wiki): {no, not the fandom term.} In music, a canon is a contrapuntal (counterpoint-based) compositional technique that employs a melody with one or more imitations of the melody played after a given duration (e.g., quarter rest, one measure, etc.). The initial melody is called the leader (or dux), while the imitative melody, which is played in a different voice, is called the follower (or comes). The follower must imitate the leader, either as an exact replication of its rhythms Rand intervals or some transformation thereof. Repeating canons in which all voices are musically identical are called rounds. (For the meaning behind the title / theme!) {In the A.M.V., I semi-relate (if vaguely) this theme to all three characters; plus, more directly, make the comparison to Haru + Free!! AND Relay Medleys.} (There is vague inspiration from the original Uta-pri as well, but not intended directly comparable.)

The final chorus of the A.M.V. is one I had in mind ever since first hearing this song way back around Apr 2k13, when the second part of Uta-pri aired. It may be slightly more modified in a “final” version, but for the most part!...

Lyric[s]:

Distant {“Haruka”} feelings on a silent hill, all of my love… (Get ready!) [Haru <-> Rin] (+Haru; specifically...) “Do not tremble in this cruel world…” Through the kiss of a “song”, better than thousands of words We can give something up (I swear to you) Just to live in this moment (Hold my hand) For your sake and for mine, we’re ready to take off now…together! “So, let’s go!” Your beloved voice becomes a powerful impulse That makes dreams reality As our heartbeats synchronize… Ah, exceeding even miracles, (Feel your song!) Up among the stars, (Feel my song!) Until that dream Reaches the unseeable future, I’ll play this song! I was scared of truth’s light... [Ai -> Rin] Even at this great a DISTANCE, it’s too DAZZLING An unspeakable LONELINESS (No more crying) Thirsting for an impossible cure (Save my heart) [Ai <-> Rin] Since I met you, I’ve sworn to start living! The overlapping melodies of your voice seem to scorch my heart Resonating dreams echoing for eternity Like a sense of déjà vu, I knew today (Feel your love) A bloom of hope (Feel my love) An infinite rainbow Now our feelings are merging as we become one [Ai <-> Rin <-> Haru] The stars are waiting for the sky, they want to become a dream(?) The day will come when they bloom like a flower, and a rainbow awaits us on that day We’re ready to take off now…together! “So, let’s go!” Your beloved voice becomes a powerful impulse That makes dreams reality As our heartbeats synchronize… Ah, exceeding even miracles, (Feel your song!) Up among the stars, (Feel my song!) Until that dream Reaches the unseeable future, I’ll play this song! Feelings tied together on a shining hill…

“In this place… Forever…

I want to keep swimming!”

Heading to Over lyrics!

We’re moving towards the bright light on the other side of the thick clouds, like the hesitations we carry with us We kept fumbling our way forward by just picturing the future in our minds

If I’m born to be a winner, we’ll make it to the place we’ve dreamed of In this same city at the same time We’ll keep believing in this crazy dream we’ve decided on

In this dream, rise up and swim in the sky We’re going up with these overflowing emotions that we can’t hold back Even if I have to keep running forward by myself Just “Take Your Marks” These bonds and thoughts will pull me forward

If your never wavering heart will allow and accept it Then even when I run out of willpower and curl in a ball, I’ll grab onto the hand that you hold out for me

If I’m born to be a loser, they are just promises we exchanged In this same future at the same age I can feel the end close beside me

If we step forward the wind will blow towards that day I arch my brow as I dream of a tomorrow where I advance to the finals I’m going to go down this one road that I have decided on So “Take Your Marks” I’ll keep challenging this blue that seems like it could suffocate me

(Close your eyes) Even when I said I couldn’t you screamed “look at the present” (Escape my past) I’ve made up my mind and it won’t change until I’ve reached the goal (Just standing) We will face the same challenge with the seriousness vivid in our hearts (Break of the day) We’ll fly the distance to the future by our joined hands

In this dream, rise up and swim in the sky We’re going up with these overflowing emotions that we can’t hold back I’m going to go down this one road that I have decided on Just “Take Your Marks” These bonds and thoughts will pull me forward

Story board translation!

Australia is famous for coffee. There are a lot of cafes Even though it’s summer in Japan it’s winter in Australia.

set during episode 12 of ES

Box line 1: In the morning in Australia. There is a latte with a shark picture in it on the table of the cafe.

Box line 2: Haruka and Rin are in a trendy cafe in Australia (Wearing the same thick clothes they were wearing in ES12)

Box line 3: After episode 12 of ES (before they return home) Rin is relaxed in the Sidney cafe “…Geez you made me go through so much trouble”

Box line 4: “Shut up……” Haruka looks to the side.

Newtype has a gorgeous RinHaru spread feature this month (post-canon between-race high five anyone?!), and Otomedia isn’t far behind with a “movie date” type poster ;D! 

It’s also funny because Otomedia had to put out an official apology this morning, because they had a tiny misprint - they mistook the kanji when they wanted to say “special theatrical release” and instead made it sound like “special night” ;)

And it’s even more hilarious with what the additional spread inside looks like ;) (note the heart!) 

Special night indeed ;) … [images credit to makiavelyka on twitter] You can buy Newtype [here] and Otomedia [here]! Give them some love! <3  

teicakes replied to your post: PSA Gou doesn’t like Seijuurou saying …

this has actually been gone over before and the pronunciation between gokkun and gou-kun are different so not quite right. It’s more just the boyish name getting the boyish suffix

milkcustard reblogged your post PSA Gou doesn’t like Seijuurou saying … and added:

It’s not even pronounced the same.

True. Because Gou-kun is pronounced with a long o and gokkun is pronounced with a glottal stop before the ‘kun’ part ahhhh I’m sorry friends I just keep seeing it and I just get bothered ahhhhhhhhh

I love Gou so much and Sei is such a dork

Looks like Otomedia is going to have a RinHaru poster this month!
