Masayoshi Yamazaki Popular Songs Ranking [2026]

One more time, One more chance PIANO ver.Yamazaki Masayoshi29rank/position

11 – One more time, One more chance PIANO ver.

“One more time, One more chance,” the theme song of 5 Centimeters per Second.

Did you know that this deeply stirring song by Masayoshi Yamazaki is included on the soundtrack in a piano arrangement? This version is a clear departure from a simple piano cover, offering a mysterious feeling that differs from the original’s image.

Listening to this arrangement makes me feel as if I’m slowly sinking to the bottom of a cold, sorrowful sea, and I can’t help but shed tears.

Since it’s the same length as the original, I recommend closing your eyes and immersing yourself in its world for the five minutes it plays.
