Geki! Teikoku Kagekidan -Shinshou- (from 'Shin Sakura Taisen') Color Coded Lyrics (KAN/ROM/ENG)

Hello everyone, and Merry Christmas! It's been a few hours since I left YouTube. Now that the newest Sakura Wars game is released in Japan, I'll give you guys a lyric video as a special Christmas present. Hope you enjoy!

For those wondering why this song sounds so unique, it's heavily influenced by Enka style, a genre popular in post-WW2 Japan written in pentatonic scale (often associated with Chinese music) and characterized by in-your-face earnestness/cheesiness. It's a weird mix of Western blues and Japanese tradition that goes perfectly with the game's setting.

A new generation of the Teikoku Kagekidan requires a new song, though never straying far from the spirit of their predecessors. This song fits the bill.

It's been 3 months since this game was released and I still can't get this out of my head.

I was soo obsessed with the series when I was about 12 I think . I had CDs and cassette tapes and even calendars. I'm in my 30s now and hearing the opening riff feels like going back to those childhood memories. Literally fighting a lump in my throat to hold back tears. The new op song keeps up with the times and appeals to younger fans of the franchise, but it slowly grows on you. Yes, that (Hashire~!) is powerful.

If you look at the cast, the original voice actors for Shinguji Sakura and Kanzaki Sumire are back to reprise their roles. God I hope they release a PC port for this game.

The level of confidence is out of the scale
Marvelous maidens
Beautiful maidens

HASHIRE

[korreaction]

This song just has this effect where you feel like you can do anything while its playing.

[rizkaarifiandi]

i have goosebumps on Clarice's part
its Hayami Saori's unbeatable charm

[theHedgex]

this is beautiful. the power of synchronization.

[SDCrusader]

I love this rendition so much it's almost embarrassing. Hopefully the series doesn't go on hiatus again.

[StUCaboose]

I loop this when playing boss fights in God of War

Best idea I've ever had

[kristianpolanco]

I wish Sakura and Seijuro could sing a song as a perfect. A love song.

COMING
UP

TIME

A taishou era tale to touch the heart

[nefel]

This song is really bringing back a lot of memories and freakin tears <3

I got the feeling that while both the old one and the new one provide the epicness, the latter also bring about a more cheerful touch, as in the new cast trying to surpass the old cast and bring a new wind to the audience

0:57 Why I'm cry ?! It's a beautiful song !

I was too young to understand Sakura Wars in its original release (it was Cardcaptor Sakura for me, not Sakura Wars lol).
But at least I've heard the original song enough times to recognize the tunes.
I got a pretty legit goosebumps when I listened to this new rendition for the first time.
I've watched videos of the new game and I like the world setting very much.
I will keep an eye on this franchise from now.

Now this is the way to honor a long standing series.

Damn, when I hear this song it hit me hard with a great nostalgic feeling. Really bring me back to the day when I was little and was watching Sakura Wars' anime in the 2000s.
.
Gonna say I really love the new remix opening for the New Sakura Wars. Especially two parts, that part when Sakura say "HASHIRE~!" at the beginning of every chorus, and another part is at nearly the end when they say "Warera arata naru~" man, that part really stab me into the soul. It's was very good. The feeling of this song was very well expressed out.
.
