3 years later and I'm still coming back to this cover from time to time, it's my favorite !

no fancy piano, no sheet music, no piano chair, just pure skill and love for the vibrations, respect. Incredible work of art here man

The best arrangement I have heard for this piece! absolutely gorgeous.

really appreciate how u killed the song (dead serious) I like simple (no i dont) BUTTTTTTt theres enough simple covers of this on youtube! THIS IS WhAT i NEEEEEEEDED in life. Today was a rough day but goddamn this just gives me so much motivation. 2:45 GODDAMNNNNN thats the peak for me, the hype is so damn good. and then subito magic. One of my fav arranges from you bro, one of my fav arranges of all time tooo for sure. Love how you rearranged it and made it YOUR OWN. keep inspiring me damn.

There is something profound to be said about the marriage of music and artistry. Movies like this one bring such a sense of realism to their worlds that is hardly expected and seldom obtained. While the artistry is fantastic in Kimi no Na wa, it is the music that brings the whole movie together and leads the viewers to places they could only dream of visiting. When I first watched this film, I found myself whisked away to a land that is alien to me, but still homey in a way that I couldn't understand. It is truly amazing what the mixture of music and artwork can achieve; something many people have found out firsthand with Your Name. I couldn't possible give my entire accumulation of thoughts in this single comment, but I can tell you that this film has left a mark on me that I have only felt a handful of other times. The pieces that you chose for your arrangement were, without a doubt, two of my favorite tracks and really represent the movie as a whole (though there are others to listen to as well). You chose a well respected and high-expectation film to arrange from and you met and exceeded my wishes, so if that's any measure of your talent, you should hold your head even higher. Thank you for the beautiful arrangement and the dedication to your channel, as I know KZfaq tends to be hard on smaller content creators. It's been a wonderful ride so far and I can not wait to see and hear what you have for us next. Have a fantastic day and as always, good luck in all your future endeavors. P.S. Try not to cry too much ;)

Your Name was possibly my favorite movie of 2017

You're insane on piano, holy shit, best version I've heard!!! Amazing

Wow.. This left me speechless. . 1:05 - 3:10 is just insane. One of the most beautiful piano covers I've heard & I've listened to quite a bit.. lol Really good stuff. You arranged/played this perfectly.

My wish is to play piano like you :) It's so beautiful, it makes me cry !

0:53 those chords!!! This is so well-performed!

damn those runs

By far the best arrangement of anything I’ve ever heard in my life

Amazing. Just amazing.

This is the best piano cover of this two pieces, wonderful!

I’ve been looking through your videos for the past 30 min and every vid I have seen has blown me away! Keep up the great work :D

I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS COVER SO LONG NOW FROM YOU. THANK YOU. AMAZING AS ALWAYS. I LOVE YOU ❤️

Best Kataware Doki cover I've ever heard!

Yessssss🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 hopefully you get the recognition you deserve off this one, been loving your arrangements for a long time now

Still listen to this almost every day.. incredible work

I've got both of these songs on repeat all the time! Your Name was a fantastic film and this was a wonderful arrangement!

Ahh I can't stop listening to this, it's so good! This is literally the best version I've heard of this piece! Truly gorgeous!!

Beautiful cover, really brought me back to when I watched this movie. Crazy the things music can do for you! Great work as always :)

I am completely unfamiliar without about half the covers that you do, but each one opens up a new whole new world of music to explore, and I thank you for that. I basically have your latest videos on repeat for weeks until a new one comes out, and then I start the process all over again. This was a beautiful arrangement, and you played it so well. It wasn't as complicated as some of your other recent pieces, yet you were able to capture so much emotion in it. Well done man, well done. Always looking forward to your new uploads, and hopefully a livestream or Q&A.

These runs are smooth as butter man, super clean arrangement

What a great song to do

This gave me chills 😭❤️ amazing arrangement!

Cant believe that these 2 ost have been my favorite songs for years but until now I get to see your vid :

Fantastic! I can not tell you how much this piece blew my mind. Absolutely astonishing!

One of the best cover of this amazing movie ! I just love it, you transmit a lot of emotions when you play.

Thank you for this arrangement, it's so perfect.

You finally hit 40k but you deserve much more

So.. Amazing,beautiful,perfect.. I have no Word for you adaptation piano music...thx you !! Again very Nice job

this is outrageously gorgeous. Love your chord extensions!

jesus christ this is an amazing arrangement, i can feel a lot of emotion & it sounds intense, emotional & beautiful. amazing as always man, wow

I just finished the anime , Ive listened to this cover before. I have to come back to say it captured the entire movie in this song. Perfect. Keep making new inspirations for us to better ourselves with Akmigone

OMG I LOVE YOUR NAME

wow! You should do a Q&A, because of you I decided to play the piano as I am self-thought. You are really talented and an inspiration Akmi

The way that you arr. Is awesome, the impact when the song have passed is a great skill that you have.

This has been my favorite cover of an anime! The feels!

This is so incredibly beautiful. You are so talented

I miserably failed the Try not to Cry Challen.... I've been wanting to watch the movie since a long time now, but I only did it today. The fact that I knew your cover long before that, make me even more emotional when I hear the pieces in Your name. Come back here to listen to it again after watching it, it's so damn beautiful :) your music had always found the straight path to my heart. Thank you Johannes !

Oh wow this is actually amazing I’m not usually one to comment on people’s videos but I’ve rewatched this so many times and this song is from my favorite anime. You just played this so beautifully and with the overlapping of clips I’m in awe. I literally fell asleep with this on replay it’s so beautiful. Ah thank you for this, you probably won’t read this comment but if you do you have an amazing talent and like HOW DO YOUR FINGERS MOVE LIKE THAT?

Amazing akmigone just keep it up

A great reimagining of the original, really took me by surprise! Definitely one for the study playlist XD

At first, I find there are so much licks that makes the whole piece sounds not so good but after half of the video, I absolutely suprised and my emotion was pulled even higher. Great job, my man.

Beautiful,it’s the only comment I can say,it reminded me so strongly to the movie and i felt it. Thanks.

OMG, you are an ARTIST in every sense of the word!

Your level of skill needs more attention. This was beautiful

The best arrangement! The best of all!

I know it's been 1+ year but DAMN your cover still gives me goosebumps

I use to playing your music to my sleep, it's so beautiful

Can't believe I've only just found this...this is incredible.

Congrats to 40k!!!

That was lovely, great stuff

I don't want to be that person that says "OMG YOUR PLAYING MADE ME CRY AHHHH" But in actuality, it did. Your playing was literally perfect; Your dynamics were amazing, all of the variations that you did were absolutely perfect and were well arranged, & the amount of emotion you put in each and every note that you played was absolutely amazing, I have nothing but respect for you as an arranger and fellow pianist.

I found your arrangement from virtualpiano, they didn't give the credits for who made the arrangement so I was forced to search through youtube. I'm glad I finally found it, because this is an amazing, beautiful arrangement of the song. The best I've ever heard. Thank you for making this!

Wow..this just about made me cry even..it’s so good

Quoi dire de mieux que magnifique !

Wow!! So beautiful!

Every week or so i come across this video, and try to thumbs up it. Then i realized i already did. Wish i could do it over and over.

Oh my god yes you actually did it!! :O

You filled my soul... Thank you

So beautiful that made me cry 👏👏😭💗

Absolutely love Your Name too and is on my top favourite movie list! Glad to see you do these two, Katawaredoki is probably one of my favourite tracks on the OST. Beautifully done movie with an equally impressive visual and sound experience. And of course, this cover is a great mix of the two songs!

Truly amazing!

Really beautiful!!!!!!!! Congrats!!!!!

nothing but a "MASTERPIECE!"❤

Gorgeous 😍 😍 😍 Watching the video and listening realy brought me to tears specially at the end when you break the sound and they're hands don't reach it gives a feeling just 🤧😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Beautiful

Beautifully done.

Again, this is excellent, this is how the piano should be played!

Great work! I get really encouraged to continue playing the piano! I am learning Victory and Garador´s Flight and they are harder than expected. Thank you for challenging me! Yours, Prexel

Sounds amazing

As long as I live I will never forget about this arrangement

Beautiful stuff!

This has quickly become one of my favorites from you. I’ll try to transcribe it but no promises :P
