[Gannan]

Well DBZ has some good soundtracks

[Schizm]

My list is almost identical to Jordan's with only 2 exceptions...add Slayers and Nadesico...

Freaky :lol:

[BigShot Jordan]

oh yeah,i forgot about nadesico.Damn!!!oh well.just let me say that i magically added nadesico to my list.

[Schizm]

O...K...:rolleyes:

[I'm not a doll]

I’m in love with all Eva music so with series I will say Eva and with movies I will also say Eva

As for other series and movies and their music well from what I’ve heard so far (that's not much I have to add) all other music (place bad word)
I have cruel angel on right now :B:

[Asuza_chan]

I definitely have to say:
Cowboy Beebop
Evangelion
Serial Experiments Lain
Ghost in the Shell
which have already been said, but I also have to add:
Trigun
Pefect Blue (i LOVE the Cham song)
and I like the music from the Tenchi OAV. Oh, and the opening songs from Lodoss War, both OAV and TV series and the opening song from Sakura Taisen, because it's so cute and catchy.

[Foryth]

Sakura Taisen
Escaflowne
Eva
Lodoss

There's probably many other good soundtracks, but the are the ones i know, so bear with the lack of titles.

[daniel480]

Yeah... got a lot too... I though the REALLY fast songs in the GBZ and DBGT albums were really funny^^ The guy can sing REALLY fast.. *whew*

[Atomic]

eva's got the best music

[Instrumentality]

Thats really weird. I think Eva has really poor music apart from the Beethoven Bach etc. Real shockers are the angel attack theme and Misato's breakfast. :vomit:

But now that I think of it it has really good ones like 'Cruel Angel Thesis' and 'Fly me to the Moon'

Best that I've seen (and I have seen so little as to make my opinion almost invalid) is Macross plus.

[penpen4]

i lke eva and dbz, the opening to knights ramune is good too

[SSJfemme]

I really like "Blue Wind of Hope" from DBZ

[HotRodimus-San]

I think Slayers (my favorite song is Reflection) and Saber Marionette have the best music

[lilmisato]

(in no particular order)
eva :P
tenchi
gundam wing
akira
saber marionette
el hazard
nadesico
bubblegum crisis

[Foryth]

*giggles* *jump around* Yeah!Yeah!Yeah! I got more anime music!

Fushugi Yuugi opening theme ROCKS!!!!! I also love Kiseki no Umi from Record of Lodoss War, Kaze no Fantasya(RoLW), Adesso e Fortuna(RoLW) and Deedlit theme(RoLW) RoLW soundtrack is for sure in my next importations! Plus to cover artwork is KICKASS!!!(the one with deedlit in white robe holding Parn's hand) Music from Sakura Taisen also rock!(the ones i got are Geki! Teigoku Gagekidan(opening) Hara ga kuru(Sakura Shinguji's theme) and Hanasaku Otome) and Escaflowne Yakuso wa Iranai is VERY good. El Hazard music seems good. Kenshin seems ok from the songs i have so far(opening and The Wars of the last Wolves) Eva, Cruel angel thesis by rei asuka and misato allthogether, is very good, so is Thanatos.

If anyone could tell me the Japanese title of the Fushigi Yuugi opening, i would apreciate(hiyoku could probably tell me this)

[The edit was to include a Sakura Taisen song i forgot]

[BigShot Jordan]

right now i really,really like the KenshinOVA music.
espacially these songs:the wars of the last wolves,shades of revolution, and in memories"KO TO WA RI".the opening song is really good as well.

[spc_dot]

I think the Japanese title of the Fushigi Yuugi Op. Is Itooshi Hito No Tameni or something like that... my memory's failing me.

I'd have to say that IMHO, Escaflowne, Eva, and Serial Experiments Lain have the best music.

[Foryth]

thanks for the title, but hiyoku-sama already told me in the chat, not long after i posted

[Morbius]

I think Cowboy Bebop has the best music. I also like the Music for Beserk and Master of Mosquiton.

[Heero Peacecraft]

Battle Arena Toshinden (the anime) has the best backroung music of all anime movies and GW has the best backround music of all series.

[Yui_Reborn]

I luuuuuv Eva music, but before I nitpic that here's some others:

Successful Mission-Saber Marionette J
Tank-Cowboy Bebop
Opening whatya call it_FY
Devil Hunter Yohko music
Damn, I'm blanking on all my fav anime songs...

now with Eva, I have S2 works soundtrack (6 cds +1), so that gives you a clue how insane about it I am...my favorite Eva song is probably that one they play at the very end of EOE,
S
P
O
I
L
E
R
when the world is ending-that very dramatic one where it's Rei's theme mixed with something else and it's just so DAMN AWESOME-anyone else know what I'm talking about?????

[BigShot Jordan]

yep,i do. that is track#14 on the End of Eva.i Have no idea what it is called either. that song really added an effect to the scene.

[monolith]

oh, yui_reborn, is it track 30 on disc 5??
M-3??
well, if it is, i agree, it's the best piece, and if it isn't, well, it's still the best piece ^_^

[thewiredknight]

My personal favorites, in no particular order are;

Cowboy Bebop
Escaflowne
Evangelion
Kenshin OAV
Giant Robo

[BlackXIII]

my favs are EVA and slayers. slayers has sooo many songs though. i think i have about 50 only with words. but eva has the best. espcially cuel angel thesis. Komm susser Tod is also a good song. but on one of the bonus cds at the end there are soo many vocies. while i was home alone i forgot i was playing it and i walked in my room and then the voices. it was scary. and i have surroudn sound. but enough of me. sorry ^_^

[Foryth]

hmm... a few more anime series and movies with VERY good soundtracks IMHO

Kimagure Orange Road
Akira
Mononoke Hime
To Heart
Tokimeki Memorial(both the anime and the games)
Grave of the Fireflies
All Purpose Cultural Cat Girl Nuku Nuku
Ah! Megami Sama!

[heerogf]

gundam wing hands down
those songs were the first anime soundtrack i have ever heard and up until now it is still my favorite
some of my fave song from the soundtrack are
white reflection
just communication
just communication 2
rhythm emotion
last impression

[Mika-chan]

Hmm...let me see...

I like the music from Cardcaptor Sakura, Rurouni Kenshin, Fushigi Yuugi, Sailor Moon (mostly from Stars), and Ranma 1/2. The show that I think has the BEST music has got to be Escaflowne though...

[Foryth]

Still adding more to my list :B:

Yuu Yuu Hakusho (especialy the song "Hikari no Naka de")
Love Hina

Very good music in there too :)

[Shinigami]

Hm. Tough one. My opinion would have to be Gundam Wing, Fushigi Yuugi, and of course, Neon Genesis Evangelion.

[LiDDoDrAgOn]

Gundam and Evangelion....and macross!!!

[BigShot Jordan]

i will still add more:

1.Utena:Adolescense of Utena
2.Memories
3.Cardcaptor Sakura
4.Vision of Escaflowne
5.Gundam wing(especially White reflection)
6.Dragon ball z(the original score,not funimations)
7.Sailor moon(i really like uranus and neptunes violen themes)
8.LAIN
