\"PRITHEE AWAKEN, MINE OWN MASTR'S!\"

Since I've been arranging only anime openings so far, I decided to try something different - the iconic Pillar Men Theme. This was way more challenging than I thought it would be - first off, the singer in the original uses pitch bending and microtonal movement - which sounded very awkward to emulate on instruments like the lute, so I decided to replace a majority of the vocal interjections with an instrument buildup to make it more consistent. Similarly, I added some melodic material to the electric guitar solos (like at 0:48 and 2:04) and also fragment the theme at 2:15 and 2:37 to add more variance. Finally, I decided not to do a gigantic downward pitch glissando towards the end, but just end it on the high note. (Also on an unrelated note, I spent way longer than what anyone would think trying edit Kars' hair onto this image)

Overall I'd say this was on a similar difficulty to my Stand Proud arrangement just because of how awkward some of the original vocal/electric guitar transitions were to emulate on other instruments. Once again, very challenging but equally fun to arrange.
