Akaneiro ga Moeru Toki, the ED of Gungrave, is a beautiful self-contradiction. What do I mean? Although the tone is lively and upbeat, its lyrics convey a very sad message. The violins amidst the high-strung music portraying the clash of quietude with an organized noise is simply beautiful. It triggers images of Beyond the Grave's life, and it just tears my heart out and makes me pensive every time I hear of it.
It's a beautiful song.
