[Kalafina] They woke up in a fairytale

[adantatu2]

I'm so confuse again Wakana is the girl with that mmmmm "interesting" nose ?
or is Hikaru ?

[milky_way]

^ That's Hikaru. Wakana is the one that usually gets most of the lines

[Ranma Matsuri]

^Yeppers, cuz she's the leader.

Hikaru is one with the adorable nose and the one with the bangs is Keiko... that's the best description I can give since Wakana doesn't have any outstanding facial features. XD

[Chiharo]

^so Wakana is the leader? I always thought Keiko was for some reason xD.

[Ranma Matsuri]

^Probably because they always put her in the middle. That's the thing about Japanese girl groups that irks me, the leader isn't always the girl in center ring or who gets the most lines... it's like, then what's the point of her being the leader? You might as well not have one. lol

[adantatu2]

thanks, then sorry Wakana but i love Hikaru, her voice is the most beautiful

[octocoffee]

haha, I love Wakana! She's easily my favorite. I love the operatic tone of her voice. But I love their voices, all of them, when compared to the big scheme of J-Pop. They're so distinct, but they all blend well together. It's crazy! Kajiura Yuki is kind of a master at finding good singers and composing.

But yeah...I love the new song. Just watched the latest episode of Kuroshitsuji II and squealed when I heard it.

[Aderianu]

Blue-ray??? such a small band release a BR -_________-
If ayu At10 will be on DVD i'll be mad

[Yoake]

O.O OMG!!
I want!!

[mellody]

I don't know this thread being so active again, I missed everything o_0

Anyway, I'm also excited about this live DVD, they should announce it earlier, OMG!

EDITED:
I read previous pages about who is the leader, anyway... XD

The leader of Kalafina of course is Yuki Kajiura herself, and the 3 members consisting Hikaru, Keiko, and Wakana (See my avatar XD).
Keiko and Wakana already worked with Kajiura before with FictionJunction project, while Hikaru is new, so I can say that Kalafina is mostly about Hikaru (listen to sprinter)

In Yuki Kajiura Live Vol. 4, Hikaru is there, along FictionJunction members, but Hikaru didn't credited as FictionJunction because she's that Kalafina, so I would say that Kalafina is mostly about Hikaru XD

About Keiko always being in the center, she's the most attractive, that's obvious XD
In fairytale cover, she's the only one wearing black while the others wearing white...

[adantatu2]

LOL!!!!
It's true, i love KEIKO, she is so beautiful.

[mellody]

But to be honest, I got bored seeing Keiko recently, her style (her face) is never changed.
Her hairstyle always looks the same.

Wakana is changing, and so Hikaru. Since Hikaru is new, it's quite interesting to see her~

Anyway, have you know their personalities? It's also an interesting thing to see

That's an interesting way of looking at it, lol and convenient for me since Hikaru's my favorite. She does tend to lead most of the singles as well (sprinter/ARIA, Hikari no Senritsu, progressive, storia, Kagayaku), so I'll agree with your theory. XD

Yeah, I didn't want to say it and possibly offend some Keiko fans though she's a great vocalist, that's obviously the reason she's always in the middle lol.

I haven't had the chance to see any interviews/ behind the scenes stuff to get a good grasp on their personalities but on stage, Keiko kind of seems a bit shy but energetic, Hikaru is pretty theatrical and bubbly, and Wakana seems like she'd be the mature and demure type. But again, this is just what it looks like on stage to me. lol

[mellody]

Yeah, that's why I think Kalafina is focused in Hikaru, she's the brand new singer for Kajiura herself.
