>>5630743Even though Hiroyuki Sawano obviously makes some great music, I wish he had greater range. He feels like the Japanese version of Hans Zimmer, where you can hear just a snippet of a soundtrack piece and immediately know who it's from
>>5631699I have the same feeling. But I also think about how difficult it must be to be innovative when you're doing the music for several shows a year.
>>5632583I had naively thought it would be easier, because you could try something crazy as a one-off and have plenty of more conservative scores coming out each year. But you're right, the sheer level of output must be constraining in its own way.
>>5628901is this anime any good? I was recommended it by a colleague but it looked like I'd get put on a list if I watched it.
>>5632948NTA, but it's very good in my opinion. The production values are high in terms of animation, soundtrack and voice acting. But as for the plot, I think you'll enjoy it more if you know/watch other mahou shoujo anime to appreciate it for what it is.
>>5632948Yeah some guy literally got put on a "possible pedo warning" list for watching it, don't touch it with a 10ft pole. Just stick to western media. Please.
>>5634770>Yeah some guy literally got put on a "possible pedo warning" list for watching itFor Madoka of all things? Sounds like bullshit.
>>>5629399Really Really good!
>>5633183>>5634770I watched the first episode of it, I'm hooked. I don't remember taking any acid before watching it though. The animation is very high quality though.
>>5632948It's really good.As for getting put on a list, just about anything could if the right person has their way, so generally don't worry about it. When I was about 14, living in Nebraska (Or maybe it was Ohio, fuck nomadism) we had a school-wide meeting where police came in, did a speech and encouraged people to out their peers for liking "weird music"You can just about guess how well that went.

>>5639214Based. Still one of the best anime soundtracks.
>>5634255>>5636403>>5637025>>5639196>>5639221Beautiful. This is why I watch anime.
So many good tracks ITT. Crazy that even minor series, ones I've never heard of, or ones that from the surface look absolutely terrible, have such good OSTs. Grorious nippon really understands the value of a good soundtrack
>>5628899
>>5643982why is an anime OST referencing adam smith
>>5642972Parasyte had a baller sound track.
>>5644125You can deduce this from the theme of the anime.
GOT THE FIRE OF THE GRAND PRIX
>>5634770I miss when bait used to be believable, I'm 8 episodes in and confident I won't be on any lists now, it's basically evangelion but with magic and shit
>>5634784>>5635310>>5647286Fucking hell
why anime goes so hard with its music? is to sell those cd albums?
>>5649516A show is enhanced by its soundtrack, if it is well done in other aspects (animation, voice acting, direction). Even a mediocre series can be improved by its music. This is one of the advantages of anime over manga. Selling CDs is a bonus.
>>5649341Quite the soundtruck.
>>5632948>but it looked like I'd get put on a list if I watched itbruhhow did you get on this website
I think this would count - one of the standout tracks from the Made in Abyss OST just got a short cover by the original singer. Is it even a cover if you made the original?
And here's something that definitely fits in the thread.
>>5652603>Is it even a cover if you made the original?I don't think so, it's just an alternative version. Very good anyway.
>>5649516I'm really noticing that in these threads as well. There are a lot of anime series I would probably never watch, or at least finish, but the soundtracks are amazing even without the barest context.
just watched this gemwhat an amazing soundtrack it has
>>5653994Ooshima Michiru is great.
>>5654782
>>5654785
>>5654787
>>5655569Beautiful. Thanks for reminding me of the Aria soundtrack.
>>5649370Probably the most memorable track from the show, but it had a lot of great ones.
>>5656845so fucking good

YMCA in Minor Key is just DBZ fight music
>>5628899most overrated naruto op of all time
Fuckin' love Yasushi Ishii.
>>5658143One of my favorite composers too.
>>5654782Damn these four are goodAnd these>>5655419>>5656245>>5656256
>>5659171>Chichi no HahaI know you didn't do it, but that's a mistranslation. The original track title is 父と母, which means "Father and Mother". So it should be transliterated "Chichi to Haha". Saved btw, nice track.
>>5661691Has to be one of the best anime tracks of all time. It's so emotionally performed. I think the Ave Maria from the same soundtrack album is my favorite take on that piece of music, great performance and arrangement.
>>5664701Call me call me is a great track indeed. This album is a masterpiece as a whole.
>>5664387This soundtrack deserves a lot of credit. It has many good pieces, and they carried the show in a major way.
