Killy Killy Joker (Selector Infected WIXOSS OP)-Kanon Wakeshima

Selector Infected WIXOSS is actually one of my favorite anime series of this season, (next to No Game No Life, Isshuukan friends and Gochuumon Usagi wa Desu ka.) because it keeps surprising me with the dark plot twist and the sudden change of atmosphere. If you initially ignored this anime because "meh, it's only trying to advertise a silly Trading Card Game", I really suggest you to give it another chance, because it's much much more than that.

The OP theme "Killy Killy Joker", performed by Kanon Wakeshima is definitely one of my favorite opening songs of this season: very dramatic, full of passion, a really catchy chorus and an overall "jazzy"-feeling. I especially love the Cello melody in the instrumental part.

The ED song "Realize" is really fantastic too and I can't wait until the full version is going to be released together with the soundtrack of WIXOSS.

This transcription is done in my "old transcribing style" - I didn't add any additional voices or "original" parts, since the full version song itself contain enough material.

It took me a while until I figured out the "jazzy" chords (like 1:50), since I am not familiar with jazz music theory. The piano arrangement is fairly difficult to play because of the high speed and the left hand jumps in the chorus. Also, it features one of my fastest right hand arpeggios I ever used attempted in 2:12.
