Guren no yumiya

Music that does justice to his work...

Shingeki No Kyojin,
Attack of the Titans.

The name of the anime is Shingeki No Kiojin.
We are talking about Guren no Yumiya, a musical representation of the story of Attack of the Titans.

This anime was released in 2013, it is composed of 4 seasons. It tells the story of a world affected by a difficult war for many centuries.

This great battle against the cannibal giants and the humans who survived these long centuries. They survive in their village called "Paradise", hidden behind three great walls of protection.

First, the wall closest to the outside.
The Maria wall, then the Rose wall and the Sina wall are the closest to the humans.

Three walls of paradise

A generic as striking as
his work.

Guren no yumiya means "The scarlet bow and arrow". He uses the term scarlet to make it less violent

The impact of the expression is thus slightly reduced, so it means "The bloody bow and arrow".
The instrumental of the music is based on low notes and fairly fast notes.

The music makes one feel violence.

The lyrics are about the feeling of revenge and the feeling that people have when they see their lives unjustly destroyed.
