[Blue Archive The Animation] - Seishun no Archive - [Guitar Fingerstyle Cover] + TAB

Serika has become my favorite Abydos student.
The anime did an amazing job making everyone so expressive and loveable.

When I first heard Seishun no Archive,
I kinda... didn't like it at first, but after listening to it a few more times, it really grew on me.

The OP goes up and down quite a lot, so I incorporated a number of slides in my arrangement to match.
The most difficult part was choosing how to implement the percussion and match the original energy since the dynamic changes extensively throughout the song. In order to try and match it the best I could, I switch between half-time and double-time.

It was my first time trying to record a video while sitting on the ground.
It made checking my camera set up and focus more annoying (and more than one ant decided I looked like a fun thing to climb)
Also since I couldn't tap my feet to keep the beat, you actually see me tap the guitar with my thumb more than I actually do in the audio recording. Ignore those since I subconsciously kept tapping in order to keep tempo. (or don't, music isn't a "you must follow this 100% exactly", it's a feeling you play)

I wanted to get this cover out by today since if I don't, then it would have to be put on hold for maybe a month since I wouldn't be able to record outside, or just record inside and have a less aesthetically pleasing look.
I'm glad I was able to get it all done in time.

Also I have all 5 Abydos student as keychains I could have put on the guitar, but that looked pretty ridiculous, so I just chose the Shiroko.

If my planned schedule isn't interrupted (like it was with Seishun no Archive), my next cover will most likely be a quartet.
Have fun guessing which OST it is.

As always, thanks for listening and see you next time!
