Made in the abyss was probably the only anime to ever make me feel like crying just from the soundtracks

Please listen to "The rumble of scientific triumph" from made in abyss, it's my favorite song from the show

I'd love to hear a reaction to every song from Made In Abyss, personally. Every single song is so good. The Rumble Of Scientific Triumph is such a good song.

Honestly the musics from Kevin Penkin are all amazing, especially the ones from the movie Dawn of the Deep Soul.

Ohhh my god, okay It's happening, everybody stay calm

Watching this dude's whole face light up when Takeshi Saito's vocals hit. Like damn dude right?????

Get this guy to a million subscribers already.

Made in abyss is a metaphor for man descending into the darkness. He stops being human, not human again, and has a great similarity with Dante's hells, that is why when you speak of humanity, you speak of a great, terrible and crude history.

Kevin Penkin is an absolute genius. I’ve never been so blown away by the soundtrack of an anime before

He literally describing the whole movie by just listen to the soundtrack

All of this composer's work (Kevin Penkin) is fantastic and unique. He did another amazing sound track for Tower of God that has a completely different feel compared to Made in Abyss and is amazing.

The organ part is very evocative of being pulled deeper and deeper into the sea or rather, the abyss. Slowly drowning.

while I was listening to the music I suddenly remembered Mitty, and I almost started crying.

Atlas you never heard Hanezeve right? Transcendence and Hanezeve has a modified version of Hanezeve in the end, you should check the original one too, its quite adventuring and fantastic in contrast to this version that is more somber and emotional. No need to analyse, just to see the difference.

Lyrics? More like the most beautiful gibberish you've ever heard EDIT: You said it yourself, haha

I didn't think made in abyss will make a return 😭. Thanks Fox.

Please listen to the other ost of Made in Abyss like "Rumble of Scientific Triumph" and "Tomorrow" They are just as amazing! My two favorites.

you right! Hanezeve Caradhina is using an unknown language. but once people listen to this song, they comes up to 1 same point. "this song want to tells us the story of the adventures, friendships and feelings" thats why even if you don't know the anime itself you can still feel the untold story behind its sound

Calming, abysmally dark, then hopeful at the end Perfectly represents the scene this plays in

It is incredible how much you decyphered just listening to it once. I only read the manga and couldn't resist listening to ost on youtube, it is beyond my understanding how well Kevin Penkin translated the story into the music, and how you got all that information from it as well. Absolutely incredible. Stay well, keep up the good work, all the best wishes

I believe he said on Twitter that he recorded the album in a Church in Vienna so the Instrumentation bleeding with human touch that you referred to was spot on.

In the words of a certain father and scientist: *"Subarashii"* Edit: I keep making edits about comments on your analysis, but all I can say is that it you've captured this song near perfectly. Ranging from the story telling to the idea that it's a continuation of something (Follow-up of the season 1 ost "Hanezeve Caradhina.) It's as if you've watched the anime itself. Fine work.

U know when a song is good when The breakdown is “basically the general plot/description of the movie”? When the music is part of the narrative and foreshadowing many things for the movie is when it’s a good song.

Whoo! I've been waiting for this for weeks since I requested it!!! So hype~

Yep you were right about this being recorded live, Keven Penkin recorded the made in abyss ost at the Synchron Stage Vienna with a small ensemble live.

Honestly i think Dark Reg is like the most powerful track from Made in Abyss. Kevin really did some insane work.

Hell Yeah! I love this song. EDIT: In the past I made a comment about how this song goes through the many themes and feelings of Made in Abyss. You can hear and feel it all in this song, from despair to hope. And believe me, that show is super emotional, coupled with songs like this...yeah, it's a tearjerker...

Atlas and some Made in Abyss, can't go wrong. Let's gooo

*sees the title of the video* „A suprise to be sure, but a welcome one."

i just finished watching the whole series and film and started reading the manga this week, so hyped about this track, also usual reccomendation for octopath traveler: those who govern reason with any character intro

One thing I would recommend if you haven't yet is listen to the original Hanazeve Caradhina, which is where the final melody bit comes from, it's really important in the series. This is probably one of if not my favorite anime OSTs just of all time.

If that last part got you, you should listen to the original on its own (Hanazeve Caradhina). It is an mesmerizing experience

Video: *starts* Atlas: "Oof" Me: *Blushes*

This is my favorite track from Made in Abyss. The way the synths sound like they are bursting out of the tension that the organ generates gives me chills every time.

"Tozo Hanoline" from Made in Abyss: Dawn of the Deep Soul OST is a vocal version of "Tomorrow"

aahhh i suggested this one time ago! thanks Fox for this purchase! next one will be The Rumbling Of Scientific Triumph, right? XD

the song insanely explain the whole movie of made in abyss QAQ

Bondrewd = best dad

The song Hanezeve Caradhina from season 1 is pretty damn good too, i recommend listening to it sometime :)

Good made in abyss is a super wholesome anime a must watch

Still waiting for "Tozo Hanoline", that would be awesome.

Kevin Penkin also wrote osts for "tower of god". Irregular god is an absolute masterpiece

This song as beautiful as it ia you can feel/hear the dread and the horror that hid behind the gentle beginning and then it hits you at the part with the loud blaring piano and then the slow end that gave a remnant that there was once someone still there, only now living this empty existence. Exactly how Bondrewd was portrayed.

It's like all my favorite nerd osts this guy reacted to

I personally think it's incredible how a really good song listened by someone competent in music can give such a good description of what is happening on the screen even while you don't have a single image. You're just amazing keep up the made in abyss osts they are all great (And you're kinda right about everything but this ost is from the film). I hope my english can at least carry the main message: great song and great listener👍🏻

24:50 if it is hope, why am i crying? ç_ç

The best part about this version of Hanezeve is that its a direct reference to the happier one at in the dawn scene. Its a sad dawn, about the Sovereign of Dawn and is right around the time prushka gets prushkad.

This channel is insanely underrated. I have been following atlas for months now. Whatever he does in this channel, the way he does it, the accuracy of his breakdowns are so on point and insightful and entertaining to watch. Wish good things for youu my man and pls do Gehrman :)

His analysis of the last part is spot on - especially since it's a reference to the very first episode, and it's sense of awe.

yes I've been waiting for this one!

Awesome video!!! Love this song

Kevin Penkin is a genius and unappreciated.

That's what I wanted to see a long time ago. Thanks for vid!

This soundtrack is simply spectacular. Good job giving your opinion. greetings from Mexico.

I love watching and learning from your videos. It's like showing a friend, or having a friend show you a soundtrack, and then talking about the moving parts of that music piece, the feelings, the instruments, the meaning. :) I don't really have many people who enjoy soundtracks and how they intertwine with characters and ideas in the story, so this kinda satisfies my need to hear/see people react to good music. Thank you for reacting to this track. I'm so glad you enjoyed it. :) I agree, there is a lot of different feelings shifting throughout the song and history. I love how it approaches and kinda explains Bondrewd's (from the anime) character with that sickly synth and children's choir. Funny story: The organ part of this track played one night when I was commuting from work just as I was merging onto a deserted highway. The darkened world, the sensation of rapidly increasing speed (well, as rapid as a little, old econo car can achieve with my less than leaden foot ;D), the very mechanical vibration of the car and the song...it was just really epic. XD Awesome reaction. You are so good at picking up the meaning behind each section, some of them I didn't even recognize until you explained it.

3:55 i always love seeing the reation to that part, Transcendence is just such a powerful piece, all sorts of emotions, the vocals and harmanies are just incredible

I'm really happy u popped up in my recommandations, I F*cking love you work!!!

Kevin is a god in the anime music composing scene . MIA trumps everything 10fold . And you are right this is a full band setup recorded in prague i believe kevin conducts it on site and edit's it together . Truely amazing

Finally what I've been waiting for

Now gotta listen to some Tower of God. Keep the Kevin Penkin train going.

Thank you for this, this is my favorite anime one of my favorite ost from it !

I don't know if you watched Made in Abyss or not afterward the video. But god damn each word you said just made me get hit in the feels. It's as if you knew everything and said the exact perfect words to get them emotions in my brain. Made in Abyss too good.

The song is from the soundtrack album for 'Dawn of the Deep Soul' which constitutes a sequel film to Made in Abyss season 1 and, effectively, its 2nd season. The lyrics to the thematically similar 'Hanezeve Caradhina' in season 1 were gibberish and I believe that was almost certainly the case for this song as well. Mr. Penkin was able to assemble a small group of musicians to record the songs for S1 so I can't imagine the studio cheaping out on a theatrical film. Once again your analysis of the piece is, in broad terms, very accurate. In spoiler-free terms, the song starts playing at the conclusion of a false climax and then transitions into a warm sleepy scene whose significance isn't yet clear, and finally into an artsy dream sequence/flashback.

Oh HELL YEEEAH

thanks for more made in abyss!!

One day I hope he will listen to Proof of a Hero from Monster Hunter

I just found your channel through this video, and I can not stress enough that I'm dying to see your review of The Rumble of Scientific Triumph. It hits really hard once you've seen the show and the movie.

Such a powerfull song for the powerfull piece of media Made in Abyss is.

I love the way you break down the music to the core of the human experience. It seemed like you were really feeling the emotion at the end of the song. I was too. Thanks for doing what you do. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

One of my FAVORITE soundtracks, they’re all so good. Oh my god

Please do The Rumble of Scientific Triumph next 🙏 Great vid tho

thank you so much for this.

Most of the pieces that Penkin made were recorded in Vienna as far as I know, at least for the series I know they did the recordings there... there are some videos on youtube about how they did some of the pieces, it's mostly live instruments...

How about "The Rumble of Scientific Triumph" also from Made in Abyss

the last part has been taken from "Hanezeve Caradhina" which is arguably the best OST in Made in Abyss. I would love to see you react to it.

Wow... how you broke down this piece was how I felt watching the anime. Amazing.

Tozo Hanoline, Hanezeve Caradhine and The Rumble of the scientific triumph are amazing tracks from made in abyss and i hope you will react to them in future (i shall wait till that time comes) subscribing right now

Este hombre cuenta las diferentes etapas que ocurren en el anime solo con escuchar la canción, verdaderamente increíble.

made in abyss is such a crazy beautiful anime and the story is insane too, you should give it a shot if you find time for it.

Tozo Hanoline is another powerful song that takes the page as my favorite over Rumble of Scientific Triumph

Cheers to the GOAT who made this request ! 🎉

Sadly you were directed to this before listening to the "original" track from Season 1. There is a clear recontextualization of the last vocal part in this version.

Finally. Been waiting forever!!!

Kevin Penkin best composer !

Hanezeve is one of my favorite songs in any anime.

I love your videos thank you !!

I was just thinking that you should react to this one, yay!

Please make a video reacting to the song "Hanezeve Caradhina", also from Made in Abyss. It's absolutely the best track in the first Original Soundtracks in my opinion and it'd be great to see you breaking it down!

I was waiting for someone with musical knowledge to do a reactions about these Kevin Penkin OST's. My man come here and let me hug you in a nohomo way. You're awesome! :D

Enjoying all of the suggestions. Comment for the algorithm.

:) That's the beauty, the lyrics are gibberish on purpose. The feel from them was the lyrics. That's perhaps what put's it right up there, he nailed it.

Prayer and Immolation is one of my favorites from Made in Abyss; I recommend listening to some osts from Tower of God as well by Kevin Penkin especially the track Irregular God

When the meme gets old he will do gehrman

Great choice

There is a weird nostalgia I get from this particular song as the first one, Hanezeve Caradhina, was so impactful when it first hits in the anime. Contextualizing the final part of this song as hope, given the scene that it plays during, makes it feel that much heavier as it didn't strike me as a very hopeful scene until you brought that up and I realised it kind of is. Oddly enough, even though I love the manga and anime, I am just as excited that Kevin Penkin will be the composer for the third installment of the anime and hoping he continues this Hanezeve arc. (and yeah it is in a made up language as far as I have read)

Amazing work. I wonder if you heard of Kaiba? 《The tree song》or 《Melody of Chroniko》was pretty good. (They have the same main theme.)

That sigh when the song ended painted the perfect picture of your emotions

I feel like every song from this show has a feeling of hope

More Made in Abyss, please! More anime OSTs in general! Great reaction btw.

Wow so much of this analysis lines up with what’s happening in the anime. And it makes even more sense cause the section where this plays doesn’t have almost any dialogue while this piece place.
