Phase 40 discussion

[Terracosmo]

Cagalli is not going to win this fight, I believe.

Also, you can be pissed off/feel strongly about something -without- being emo.

For what it's worth, I found out some more things about the insert song in ep 40.
It's called Honoo no Tobira (door of fire) & is performed by Fiction Junction & Yuuka, i.e the same people who performed Akatsuki no Kuruma in Seed.

Some fun things to note about this:
Akatsuki no Kuruma was performed in ep 40, just like Honoo no Tobira is now!
And isn't it funny how both songs are affiliated with the word "Akatsuki"? (being that the latter plays when Cagalli gets the new mobile suit of hers).

For those who don't know, the girl who sings in FJ&Y also sings in See-Saw.

Where can I get the Mp3 of this insert song? Also, does anyone know where I can get the Mp3s for Vestige and the closing song by See-Saw? Thanks.

Excellent ear, Terra. Expanding a bit on this, you'll sometimes see FictionJunction along with the last name of a singer for when Yuki Kajiura does a joint production with someone (she more recently did it with Oda Kaori in Tsubasa Chronicle -- FictionJunction KAORI). In this case the YUUKA in FictionJunction YUUKA is of the singer/seiyuu (she's great at both, might I add) Nanri Yuuka. Akatsuki no Kuruma was translated to Dawn's Carriage if I recall, the literal translation of Akatsuki being 'red moon' (which is a fitting representation of "Dawn"), while kuruma is better known as meaning car (or even vehicle). Also an additional tidbit, Akatsuki no Kuruma seemed to have been a great song (I concur in this case); I recall browsing a billboard site and the song was in the top 10 for several months (!!). Makes me wonder if honoo no tobira is as good.

The two (Yuki + Nanri) are a really powerful team, I'm sure many are already familiar with Yuki Kajiura. As for Nanri Yuuka, if you enjoy her voice, she was one of the singers in the now broken-up Tiaraway (old site was tiaraway.com), so songs by them are likely to feature her. She's also done several singles for other shows. The See-Saw + Nanri Yuuka thing is a new one for me. I always thought See-Saw's vocalist was Chiaki Ishikawa.

I could go into Nanri's seiyuu career but that's beyond the scope of this [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

I've yet to get episode 40, waiting for HaroTori, heheh. Looking forward to listening to that insert song -- I love songs by FictionJunction YUUKA (and Nanri Yuuka alone, for that matter).
