Another great orchestral track, and probably my favourite from Vinland Saga in general.
Most of the vinland tracks were powerful orchestral compositions, which is what I believe Composer Yutaka Yamada also is very good at. The track starts and builds up atmosphere slowly eerily, which really suited the scenes where it was played. I recollect two scenes where it played, and both were foreshadowing the difficulties and hard times that were about to come for the main characters (end of episode 1 and end of episode 12). On top of it having a buildup, the buildup and track were of perfect length not overstaying its welcome. The track starts off slowly and heavily with the low bass (or low pitched string/guitar?) and heavy brass instruments. The horns were especially the highlight in the entirety of this track. And once the buildup finishes at 0:45, the main theme kicks in. The horns/brass in that main theme are exceptionally good at portraying an "Impeding doom" kind of scenario which were apparent from the scenes where it played.
After the main part the track slows down at around 1:19 to shift its tune and transition into the second phase of it. The start of the second half at 1:34 follows a similar tune that played in the start of the main theme of first part with the violins but with different drums this time. It could be treated as a continuation of first half, but I kind of feel this like a buildup for the main theme of the second half so hence why I treat the start of the second half of tune from that timestamp (1:34). The second buildup finishes at 2:23 with brass instruments and violins coming again. The second main tune starts at 2:40 which is again extremely good, however not on par with the first main tune. The brass at 2:40 is extremely good, but its quite short. 2:40 - 2:45 part was absolutely amazing.
Also, after thinking about it, I'll make another upload from vinland (this was originally planned to be the last i.e. only two uploads from vinland).

This track fits the Military-ish~ kinda theme which is there in Cross Ange. The anime itself was interesting, but it only stayed at that.
The soundtracks however, were nice.
The insert tracks, the way they were used and the tracks themselves were pretty awesome. Soon after I finished watching this anime, I was really addicted to Salamandinays song, and thus I have decided that Ill be uploading that insert song as a Friday release as the last track from Cross ange.
This would be the first time I will be uploading a Vocal song on this channel, lets see how it fares among the watchers.
Coming back to this track, it is one of the top tracks according to me in this anime. This track overall is pretty good, other tracks like Imbatto and Inferia were good but only at very specific parts.
This track is like one of those themes played when base is on high alert, and why not because the anime has a military type genre with it.
I am thinking of uploading a mix of Imbatto and Inferia but I dont know how it will turn out so Ill not make promises as of now since sound mixing is not what I do. Gonna try though.

I didnt really like madoka magica a lot. The story was good but idk why I wasnt really intrigued by the show.
The soundtrack however, amazing. This track is just so damn amazing with its vocals and instruments, just the Kajiura Yukis style.
You just have to listen to this to get the feel.
This track, depicts both sadness and Ray of hope at the same time, which is really amazing. The vocals add a really amazing feeling to this track. The instrumentals in the background, themselves are really amazing. The flute part ( I think that is a flute, at 1:30 ), is just god damn epic.
A lot of other pieces of music in the anime are a rendition of this piece ( at least thats what i think).

This is another new track addition to tg:re that I liked. It has a sad and heavy atmosphere throughout the track which I pretty well made in my opinion.
Unfortunately this is the only other new track that I liked a bit throughout the third season. Id still say the smaller part of phase shift was better than any of the newly added tracks.
Anyway coming to this track, the violins and cello sounds go pretty nicely together to set the overall atmosphere. There is no like chorus or repeating great tune in this track, it all moves together slowly and steadily. If I were to say what my favourite section would be in this track, it would be from 0:53 to 1:37. Those slow cellos sounded really nice and then the violin variation at 1:15 added a really nice touch to the end of this section.
There isnt much else for me to say about this track, as its a pretty to point track. Finding a background for this track was a nightmare, I just gave up and selected from a very few choices I made which I thought fits at least a little.

This song is so beautiful, there are no words with me to truly portray my feelings for it.
I want to give a big shoutout to taffy from discord who shared this track to me (a very long time back) and I liked it so much at that time that I decided to give a watch to this show, regardless of how unpopular average reviewed it was. The show was much much better than I expected, in fact it was one of the better shows than the rest that I had watched in some time.
Right in the first episode this track hits the watcher, and right at the start of this track, the singers voice grabbed me. But at that time I did not know I was in such a big treat (it had been quite some time since I listened to this after taffy shared so I forgot most of it). As the track built up to the chorus, and the instruments came in the back, I just could not focus on the show, not at all. I just made a notepad mark at this timestamp and tried to focus on the episode. As the song progressed, I knew that what I found was not something good, it was a diamond.
I was so mesmerized, awestruck, shaken by this track, right when the episode ended, I searched for the the soundtrack and downloaded it (the cover image of the disc spoiled the show a little for me but worth it). Even though I had not finished the show, or even progressed much in the story, there was not a single day I did not listen to this track. It was basically an addiction to this track at that point.
I know last week I made a post saying how I had no tracks, but after that I started this show and well the show was so good, I ended up finishing it in a week. In fact, I finished this show yesterday itself and today being sunday, I decided to get this track out.
Anyway, enough talk about the show, Ill now talk about the track itself.
First of all, the vocals are out of this world. The singer extremely proficiently got out the sadness and hope that is there in this track. It was perfect if you ask me, the feeling and the heaviness that we get from the vocals. The lyrics on top of it are astonishing. They are very beautiful once you know the meaning of them, and they also nicely fit the shows theme greatly.
Those straight and long stretched vocals, for example at 1:05 when she says yuuki, are soo intense, my god. The best part is this song does not deviate from a set line of music, which I am very grateful for because I genuinely feel how this is is actually just perfect.
I totally feel a sort of heavy weight on my chest throughout the track. It is even more at the line Kanashimi ni nureta tsubasa at 0:54. The way vocals slightly go into a deeper tone and the background music also slightly lowers a little makes the overall atmosphere so heavy, it just impacts me a lot. Its extremely rare to find tracks as great as this that just hit me so hard making me almost breathless.
I have nothing but just praise.
But vocals are not the only thing, the background instrumentals are nothing less than a spectacle in this track. Its not just the vocals that carry this track, its an equal effect of both background instruments and vocals. The orchestral composition is just a beauty and absolutely portrays the sadness perfectly. The violins, drums, horns, trumpets the orchestral cymbals, everything are so magnificently put together throughout the song, any amount of praise is less for this.
The instrumental is perfectly stitched with different parts of the tracks. There is no incoherency between them. For example, at the 0:38 part, the instrumentals are slow, and then at 0:54, there is a small shift with addition of specific violin tunes, but it is extremely subtle and is perfectly matched with the change of vocals all the while keeping the same atmosphere, just enhancing it. Then the chorus instrumentals come at 1:11 with those great cymbals and horns added, and at 1:21 you can hear a great small trumpet section which went so well for that short time. The main chorus instrumentals at 1:28 involve everything and if I have to talk about one thing in that part, it would definitely be those violins (or cellos). Those small and fast notes are extremely good to hear.
I can go on and on about how well this track fit the show, but I have to draw the line somewhere so Ill stop here.
This video took a lot of time to put together because I could not find a good background, so had to search the show to find something good. Then for the effects, it was the ground effect that took the longest amount of time, with those type of circuit lines. The ground effect is hard to notice, but I still wanted to do it, kind of as a challenge. Its not that great to be honest, but I still learned something. The subtitling is done by me, and I took the liberty to modify the english subtitles a little to fit it more while keeping meaning same.
Anyway, thanks for watching, I hope you like this track as much as I did.

I marked this track thinking it sounded kinda nice, but i wasnt looking forward to listening to it much. But once I found this track out, I was quite surprised by how nice it sounded.
Personally I did not like this show, and neither its soundtrack much, but this track might just be one exception. After listening to this one separately, I have grown to like this track quite a a lot.
This track is so calm and soothing, and the tune is so melodious and soft, it sounds extremely pleasant. The instruments sound something like bells, triangles or something similar to music box, I am unable to ascertain which ones were used, or probably synthesized, apart from the acoustic guitar in the start of the track. It might just be acoustic guitar with some reverb and a piano throughout but I am not sure. The track is superbly amazing throughout, but some parts with specific tunes are my absolute favourites, like the part from 0:18 to 0:37 and 1:00 to 1:41. Honestly when it comes down to it, the entire track is very good with some parts just enhancing it more.
If anyone knows what instruments are being used at example 0:18 onwards and 1:01 onwards, do let me know in comments.

![Hiroyuki Sawano - The scouts [ Attack on Titan ]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/xoUAOGeBKWk/mqdefault.jpg "Hiroyuki Sawano - The scouts [ Attack on Titan ]
Original name of this track is 10 進撃st-hrn-gt20130629巨人 lololol.
Anyway, This is a slower paced version of scouting legions theme ( named body motion). Both are good and suit different scenarios, but from only the music, Id say I prefer this version.
This version has that Outcome type of feeling, the feeling of accomplishment.
The main part (I think most of you would know what part its gonna be after watching this) really has a nice tune to it. The Choral symphony (Vocal parts) as well in the main part of this track really adds an incredible amount of feel and depth to this track.
Just love this track.
By the way, its a cut short version of the full track, (full track is like two different songs). Name was mentioned before.

Again, a pretty good track from Guilty Crown.
My favourite part is the one that starts from 1:08. That theme is modified into different versions and used in the anime. One modified version I already uploaded, called memories. Now i know I am supposed to upload these types in my SP series but when there are quite a lot of changes, It suits fine as a weekly upload according to me.
Well as per its name, I guess it is the character theme of our main character. Ill say this again, the only thing that came out good from the anime were the opening/endings and the background music. (probably some wallpapers too lol).
Was really not a fan of the character or the story as a whole.
Also Ive been unwell since last week so future uploads might get delayed if I dont recover fast. Also the reason Ill keep this description short, cant really think clearly.
Also, I am aware that background links of many old videos have gone dead. Ill update the link or will try to update if i still have backup when someone requests.

What a beautiful track, and what an amazing scene where it was played in Season 1.
Nothing but awesomeness and emotions.
This track really brings out that Ray of hope kind of feeling, as well as Desperation. The most important part of this track, according to me, was the vocal sound. It really adds a depth and feel to the track which would not have been possible without it.
This track I believe, can outshine itself with a more Orchestral tone to it. Wish Yuki hayashi does some live performances of the soundtrack of Boku no hero academia. Quite a good amount of tracks can shine in an orchestral performance.
A pretty great track overall.

This is the last upload from Boku no hero Academia Season 1.
I also tried to get some debris smoke type of effect, but the colour banding kind of ruined it. Well even if I got rid of banding through various avisynth scripts and a good pixel format, Youtube compression will still bring that back, I guess that is one downside. But still, it turned out pretty decent if you are willing to overlook the banding.")

This track is not as amazing as Sis puella magica but its still good nonetheless.
That tune right in the start is pretty darn neat ! The guitar + harp/vibraphone (not entirely sure which one is it) really give a jump start to this track in terms of melody. The violins coming up later just enhance it.
Ive forgotten a lot about this anime since it wasnt to my liking, but I think this is the theme of sayaka. (Had to google the name, was gonna write blue haired girl lmao)
The ending part, from 1:28, I really like that.
I was gonna upload one more track from madoka magica next week but considering that is a variation of this one, Id keep it in SP.

This track blew me away in the first episode of the series. The track accompanied with the end scene of the first episode were absolutely amazing to see.
This song has a sort of sadness attached to it. The lyrics seem to be japanese though I really wasnt able to find a translated version anywhere. I would really love to understand what the lyrics mean.
The vocals are absolutely beautiful. I really love how the vocals start with a very subtle background music and a child like voice. Then near the end, at 2:13, when the track picks up for one last time (its the chorus I think ? ) and in background short flute notes (might be some other flute like instrument) were really great. The 2:13 part was came at 1:25 as well with similar composition but at 2:13, it has a better vibe to it which I like it.
Overall, this might just be my favourite track from Bounen no Xamdou. The melody is terrific and vocals are beautiful. Really love it.

I initially had no plans to upload this track, but I have found myself listening to this one (albeit not entirely, but some parts) quite a bit since I finished the show. Hence here it is.
Kekkai sensen was a show that was comical for most part, but was always living up to expectation when the story was interesting or demanded seriousness. It was a great show with a mix of almost everything and I believe season 2 was as good (if not better) than season 1. The ending of season 2 just kept me demanding more of this show.
This track has a heavy attachment to the show and the lyrics are very nicely tailored to fit the scene where this track played. The lyrics also very nicely portray the main protagonist of this show too. The true impact of this song can only be felt after watching season 2 of this show. And also adding to this, I believe I might say that this song is definitely not one that would be preferred or liked by everyone especially those who have not seen this show, but I might be wrong.
It starts of nicely slowly with soft piano and slow vocals. Nothing extravagant in the start, but the song really picks up after the first verse is over (at 1:00 mark). It suddenly shifts its tone from being a calm and soft song to a really powerful one. The deep drums, bass and high violin with low piano notes instantly change the atmosphere into a serious tone. The interesting fact was that the vocal loudness increased and the vocals were tweaked a very small amount, but the pace of the vocals remained the same overall. Even after being at the same pace and almost similar setting, the difference between the two parts was beyond comparison. I instantly loved this whole serious atmophere the track instantly made when I first heard the part in the show.
The track then follows a similar theme for the rest of the song going calm once again and then transitioning back to the serious phase for one last time after that. Just a quick recap through my memory and I feel this is one of the most unique vocal tracks used as background music in a show I have heard till now.
I totally loved this bgm in the show but was unfortunately the only track that really got my attention, however i dont mean to say that the rest of the tracks are bad. They are very nicely tailored for the show.
