Dude, the violin is what makes the P5 better than the S4. I mean, it’s an electric one…
And besides, it’s in the hands of Cheslock, a man who has serious skills
So do you see what it means for this violin? It just simply makes the world go round, it just rocks the hell out of everything. [x] [x]
All hail the violin, they should have called themselves the Phantom Six.
I’m a flute player and classical pianist myself, so no, the concept of rocking out is not something I understand. Though Cheslock is probably the most badass violinist EVER.
There are obviously different ways of rocking out with instruments, whether you play classical, contemporain, jazz or rock with them, it’s just a matter of taste at the end (and I’m a pianist too, playing mainly classical although sometimes contemporain). 🙂
I personally believe classical pieces have a way to rock things their own way otherwise they would have been forgotten and no one would play them anymore. And besides, there are some classical pieces that are just beyond wonder and you can’t stop shivering when listening to them. ^_^
All that to say, I was basically just making a joke lol but still, I believe all instruments have the actual power to play wonderful classical pieces written for them centuries ago and to rock things out, but that’s indeed mainly depending on the musician and/or your own tastes in music.
But Cheslock is badass, so his association with the violin and the violin being shown so much just makes my day! xD
I can’t believe I never noticed that Cheslock’s violin was electric in that chapter! I’m blind honestly!!
But that is extremely bad ass. Makes me wonder if the violin was somehow customised by Sebastian using his demon powers for the occasion, customised by Cheslock himself (quite likely imo seeing as pretty much everything else about him, physically at least, is way ahead of its time), or if electric violins exist in the Kuro universe anyway but are perhaps rare and expensive as hell so only the son of a noble like Cheslock and similar could afford to own one.
(I have a feeling that this sort of question would also bring to mind questions like where did they get glow sticks from?)
Back to Cheslock, I did a bit of research and something reminded me of a theory I have regarding the stars Cheslock and Edward may be under (Vega and Polaris respectively). I believe that if anything Cheslock would be Vega because of the personality traits that fit and the fact that it is often attributed to musical types (Vega is depicted as a lyre).
Well, guess the name of one of the companies who sold electric violins in the 1930s/40s?
Edward Midford Soma Asman Kadar Joanne Harcourt Clayton Cheslock & his violin
Can we talk about the fact that it’s been almost two months since the beginning of the arc and that Edward is basically just jeopardizing his studies and his graduation from Weston (when men of the Midford family probably have been graduating from Weston for generations + he’s supposed to become his father’s heir) because Lizzie is more important to him?
And it’s probably the same for the others (although Harcourt is just in second year) since they had to make time to train with Sebastian before the Phantom five group could start, even if Ed has been out of school for longer.
I know they all have their own reasons to go along with Ciel’s plan, but still, the Starlight four killed other students from Weston and the Vice Principal and involved them into an incident with bizarre dolls, so Edward aside because Lizzie is currently in danger, none of the others should have bothered to jeopardize their own future, and yet they still did it.
That’s why I’m totally rooting for those kids ❤
Btw, this also probably means that…
…this poor lad on the right is currently the one who has to take care of everything by himself at Weston xD
Hey Anon! Aaaah, I miss my shy and awkward boy a lot too, so don’t worry 😉
I doubt he’ll stay forever that way though, because we all know it’s an act and one he is not that much into as he said himself…
And let’s say that somehow he becomes greedy and enjoys the powerful feeling of the masses being enthralled by him a tad too much that he keeps some bad guy traits like…
Well in that case I wouldn’t worry at all, since I’m pretty sure his mom…
wouldn’t tolerate it, haha! ^_^
Nah, he’s definitely not going to stay that way. His mom and sister would give him weird looks if he were, so acting is just going to stay acting 🙂
Thanks for passing by and have a nice weekend Anon!
Hey Anon! I can understand and as I said to the Anon above, while I don’t mind the fanservice and it’s rather enjoyable, I do miss the real “them”. 🙂
Don’t worry though, it’s easy to see that it’s all an act
(lmao Clayton is so chill)
and in Ed’s particular case, we know he only bears with all this because of Lizzie. 🙂
I have no idea what they’ll do once the arc is over though, that’s a good question. Personally I’m hoping this cooperation will change things between the dormitories at Weston, but maybe they’ll keep on doing the concerts for charity events? I’d say it depends on how the arc will end and to which point they will all get involved (either to help Ciel, support Edward and save the S4).
I really don’t think you should be worried about Ed or any of the others keeping up the bad boy act though, really. 🙂 They know why they joined this and why they have to act, so they’re just doing their part and nothing more.
Don’t worry Anon, we might have a few more chapters of fanservice/boy band stuff but this won’t last forever. :3
Have a nice day!
Fair point Anon (unfortunately for Lizzie’s character, though she’s less called annoying nowadays), and I can’t help but agree. 🙂
Those siblings, they’re really similar, aren’t they? That’s why I love them both so much. ^^
I just wish both Ed and Ciel would give Lizzie more credit…
…considering that Ed should know how similar Lizzie is to Frances, but hey, she’s young and they don’t really know what’s going on, so I guess it can’t be helped.
I’m looking forward the moment they will realize their plan won’t work on her since she’s not being subjugated by Bravat’s radiance; Ed will just flip his shit lol. xD
