Anyone else impressed by the ED for this show? Maaya Sakamoto is so great, don't know if she's fluent, but I'm pretty impressed by her English in it. Anyone know if it did well in sales (or if it's even out yet)? And is she going to be doing the ED for the sequel?

Here's a link to the song:

It's one of my favorite endings, musically. The only problem is that the visuals aren't nearly as good as the song. I had to do a double-take and reopen my browser after hearing the first 5sec LOL.

It's a gorgeous song isn't it? It's Maaya Sakamoto, so quality vocals isn't too surprising (she's a great seiyuu and singer), but the instrumental aspect is very nice as well.

Is this a slightly sped up version?

I don't think that the ED song CD single has been released. If it was already released, then it didn't get to the ranking of the week.

According to last week's ranking, only OP of Gakusen Toshi Asterisk is listed.

Rank 24.　Sold 4,033.　Shiena Nishizawa "Brand-new World / Piacere" (incl. Gakuen Toshi Asterisk OP "Brand-new World" and Aria The Avvenire ED "Piacere")

It's nothing new. Almost every OP/ED by Sakamoto Maaya is awesome :)

Dub = fake crap. Always.

Very slightly with only a few seconds of difference in total length. As such the difference is barely noticeable unlike the ear cancer that is Nightcore version.

Both the OP and ED are the highlights of this anime.

Its not to say its a bad animeit is just that they the op and ed punch above their weight.

Yeah, this ED was way too good for this show, lol. Waiting for the Rain could be a real tearjerker paired with the right kind of story; it almost is by itself when you let yourself hear every little thing that's going on in this song. Rasmus is a great producer and Maaya Sakamoto sings really well in English.
