I like this song too. It definitely sets the right low keyed dark mood.

Kanon Wakeshima really sounds a lot like ALI Project. Except that the background music support is just a tad better. It’ll be interesting to see how she develops and that she can avoid turning into another ALI Project clone.

I love how the strings made it all dark. And it suits VK so well!! The soundtrack is awesome and the singing. It’s just like icing on a cake everything about the song matches so well and it brings out the characteristics of vampire knight.

@ RP
I agree with you that her voice suits these 2 songs perfectly. However, I feel that this voice will work against her later because it severely limits the range of songs she’s able to sing in the long run.

Hi-5! I don’t think ‘didn’t really like’ the anime would describe how I feel. In fact, I kinda hated the anime. It was too drama and superficial to me. However, Vampire Knight has undeniably good music. =D

I like the ED. It gives off a mysterious atmosphere that I guess is suitable for vampires that roam in the night.

As for Vampire Knight, I didn’t really like it and found the characters too emotional.

I remember hearing this song and instantly being struck by the dense, moody tones. I actually liked Wakeshima’s airy voice in this. I thought it provided a nice contrast to the instrumentals, without feeling terribly out of place.
