UPDATE 2021: I have uploaded a remake version of Bios with better audio!    • Bios (10th Anniversary ver.) – Guilty...  

Bios is the name of the insert song in the first episode of Guilty Crown, where Shuu is pulling the sword from Inori's Body using the "Power of Kings". This piano arrangement has become very popular over the years because it's one of the first piano pieces, where I was utilizing the entire keyboard of the piano to achieve the maximum sound and intensity. This piece is also one of the more difficult arrangements I have made. Especially the octave jumps in 0:30 is very tricky, because the gap between the jumps are getting wider and wider. During my Animenz Live concerts in the past, I also played Bios as a part of my Guilty Crown Piano Medley and occasionally, I played some variations of the left hand rhythm as well.

Last but not least: Below is the short Q&A, which was the actual original Video description. Please don't take it too seriously, because I was still young back then. (´・ω・`)

Q: How do you imitate those guitar riffs in the original song?
A: By letting off some steam on the piano.
Q: Wait, isn't something missing here in this piano cover? The original song features some rap part in the middle of the s
A: I just pretend they don't exist, because it's impossible to translate rap into the piano. End of discussion.
Q: Is there a simplified version for this piano arrangement?
A: C̶u̶r̶r̶e̶n̶t̶l̶y̶ ̶u̶n̶d̶e̶r̶ ̶p̶r̶o̶g̶r̶e̶s̶s̶.̶ ̶W̶i̶l̶l̶ ̶r̶e̶l̶e̶a̶s̶e̶ ̶i̶t̶ ̶e̶v̶e̶n̶t̶u̶a̶l̶l̶y̶ No.

And thus, this piano arrangement was made.
