History AwesomeMusic / Anime

** It's a fanwork about a fanwork, but [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iYxlEq8pHNc the music in this video]] definitely qualifies. It weaves together different Vocaloid pieces together in a way which is smooth and beautiful, and the "Veneziano" measures are amazing! Which isn't mentioning the video itself and how cute and yet sad that it is.

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aGN6G6PeQpM Wild Eyes]] ({{Basilisk}})

** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CUSAzjEwsXo Sacrifice]] also shows how awesome the Tsubasa soundtrack really is,

*** At this point you should realize that ''all'' the soundtracks count.

* One absolutely magnificent piece is [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DPz_lkRJPq8 Grace Omega]] from ''[=~Jin-Roh: The Wolf Brigade~=]'', which ushers in the end credits in the most spine-tingling way imaginable.
* The ''[=~Wolf's Rain~=]'' soundtrack. [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xoQuu7GPxAI "Stray"]], the theme song, definitely deserves a mention. The song is reminiscent of all the most epic 80s power ballads, with Steve Conte's voice making it even better. And then there's the frankly brilliant moment where the guitar makes a howling sound, just as a wolf is shown howling...

* ''[=~D.Gray-Man~=]'''s [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nyI1WdnjmXA Doubt and Trust]] is just ''awesome''. The [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UPVNKzzH9ow full version]] is even better.

* Several tracks from ''TurnAGundam'': Moon (especially the live version), Tsuki no Mayu, and [[@/{{Nitramy}} This Troper]]'s personal favorite, Back to the River (Vocal Version).
* BrainPowerd is also worthy of note as sort of a precursor to TurnAGundam, this was the first collaberation between Kanno and Yoshiyuki Tomino and gave us such great songs as [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GbBerjcezXM Light of Love]], [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8JaEgxL6VmM Sonne]] and [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hn9vOyGDTZ8 Flow]].

* Often looked over is her work for ''TurnAGundam''. Quite a few of the songs are very well done, especially [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e_OlWVTQPJA Black History]] and [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PU35fJNtxp8 Moon]].

* [[http://www.youtube.com/user/AppleO0o0o AppleO0o0o]] has also dubbed many anime songs, including many from UminekoNoNakuKoroNi

** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CZ4dhRIR-9o&feature=related Resolution]] ''([[AfterWarGundamX Gundam X]])''

* The GhostHunt [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eHaxcnHRJoc opening theme]]. It sounds very much like Danny Elfman.

** The two [=OPs=], "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qPvxUSqdlAM Disillusion]]" and "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ksAh50x5GzE Kiramecu Namida wa Hoshi ni]]", also qualify.

*** Also from ''Unlimited Blade Works'', the thunderous ''[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xfczI9FDaxg Musubareru Sekai]]''.
*** Thought Saber's theme ''[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aizZNJ81bDY Unmei No Yoru]]'' couldn't get more epic? [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QBBBGGvrz0Y Think again]].

* Aside from copious amounts of excellent SceneryPorn, ''{{ARIA}}'' has an impressive soundtrack, consisting of slightly classically tinted, soft pieces that fit the mood of the series perfectly. Most of the tracks are produced by ChoroClub, who also did excellent work on the second ''{{OVA}}'' release of ''YokohamaKaidashiKikou''.

** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P4la7n_0Arg My Soul, Your Beats]] (AngelBeats)

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UpK1T2ZzjaY ''My Soul, Your Beats!'']], the opening to AngelBeats.

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W2Bu0Sn4sSk Successful Mission]] (SaberMarionetteJ)
** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DlI-41cWhTM I'll Be There]] (SaberMarionetteJ - Beware, video is spoiler-tastic, so close the window as soon as it loads in case you haven't seen all of the episodes)

* HigurashiNoNakuKoroNi: the anime [=OSTs=] were made by him, featuring some of the scariest tracks I've ever heard. "Senkou" still gives me a chill EVERY TIME.

** From the side story ''The Day After'': "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8tXZdTvmUhU The Song of Fading Light]]"

* The GhostHunt [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eHaxcnHRJoc opening theme]]. It sounds very much like Danny Elfman and the visuals look like they were inspired by Series/DoctorWho

* His score for the [[YourMileageMayVary otherwise mediocre]] ''FateStayNight'' anime brings us "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aizZNJ81bDY Night of Fate]]", "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z5tU3QGalBc Lonely Pilgrimage]]", "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4hmunvo4ZWM Magician]]", "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2D4HUVjS9q4 Ever-Changing Fate]]", "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bber29FSZwY Holy Grail]]", "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qOCExUZA-Rc Inheriting the Seal]]", "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eDr1M0CnmNM King of Heroes]]", "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=in26t7QOTaQ Winter Faeries]]", "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I2tgeAeEpLs Blood Knight]]", "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=27ntyn85pQo Contract]]", "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QmSOW9OhdOg Bonds]]", "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pWrVZxjucks Roar of the Universe]]", "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=huTwXe-uTGo La Sola]]", and "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DjQfA0GffOI Dashing Rivals]]".

** Also, there's 'I Say Yes', which appears as ([[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kmB0U4ixflg&feature=related Season 2's opening]]. And then there's the [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zctiRQWPaj0&feature=related accoustic version,]]) which play just before and during quite possibly the greatest combination of OneManArmy, LastStand, YouShallNotPass, [[spoiler: SelfDestructiveCharge and DyingMomentOfAwesome]] outside of FateStayNight's Archer v Berserker.

* ''GundamSEED'''s ''[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=39d8yohUzI0 Akatsuki no Kuruma]]'' and ''[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LnWHU1qNBss Honoo no Tobira]]'' in [[GundamSEEDDestiny the sequel]]. Incredible stuff, moreso when paired with their respective scenes in the anime. Also, as part of See-Saw: ''[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rS0Qxy6RTmg Anna ni Issho Datta no Ni]]'' and ''[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y5Bysx8QJ78 Kimi no Boku ni Niteiru]]'' make perfect bookends for the Cosmic Era, [[YourMilageMayVary regardless of your opinion of the series itself.]]

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVVB2yB3v-A Orange]] from ToraDora can become [[CrowningMomentOfHeartWarming heartwarming]] just from the sheer atmosphere of the song. Even more if you juxtapose the show's grand finale with it
