RinXD Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 The series with a powerful ost that comes to mind for me is (Gundam fans dont kill me now) Gundam seed/seed destiny both have amazing OST's two of my favorites off the ost Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melo4496 Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 (edited) *Akame ga Kiru* comes to mind Edit: I have made a mistake. Sorry. Well I guess you could consider OP as OST. Edited January 1, 2015 by melo4496 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rose Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 I'd say Bleach if they didn't used this fucking song every time the protagonist was supposed to look awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GetterEmperor Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 One that comes to mind would be GaoGaiGar FINAL. These are a couple of my favorites. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zhTUh7d8Ft0 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nm2T0uXYBbk http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Uzud3ZZkzs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyoroto Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 Shingeki no Kyojin soundtracks have "epicness" Here is one them: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GMsJ_DrVEXk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Down Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 I think Shiro Sagisu is a genius and his work on the Evangelion (both series and rebuild) OSTs is incredible. I also absolutely love Yuki Kajiura's work on Kara no Kyoukai (those are pretty long but so freaking awesome). Those are probably my two favorite and I love the other works of both of those composers, but I also enjoy a lot musics by Yoko Kanno (Escaflowne, Cowboy Bebop, GitS:SAC), Kenji Kawai (Patlabor, GitS movie), Joe Hisaishi (Ghibli movies) and a bunch of other soundtracks like Paprika, Hunter x Hunter, Rahxephon, the Umineko anime (for the obvious reason that the VN OST is unbelievably good), Galaxy Express 999, Harlock 78, Yamato 2199, Aria, and many more...

Jibril Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 Any Yuji kajiura or Hiroyuki Sawano works. Well Sawano mostly for his sudden 'drops' in his OST but it's still over-the-top amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crunchytaco Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 Evangelion - where each violin string stood in as a blood vessel for my heart. Zalor and Down 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zalor Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 This is a bit of an under appreciated gem of an anime, but Revolutionary Girl Utena has a phenomenal OST! Not only do the background pieces define certain scenes, but every single battle (around 20 battles) have their own individual vocal songs. While the lyrics for each battle song are always a bit wacky, they are always thematically relevant to each battle. If you like great music in anime check Revolutionary Girl Utena out! This may seem like an amv, but in reality all the video creator did was omit the dialogue and slightly edit some clips (but very minimally): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=69RGB1ZYZL0 Another example of the excellent use of songs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pi7ukweAp2A Down 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Down Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 While the lyrics for each battle song are always a bit wacky, they are always thematically relevant to each battle. Me every time a fight starts in Utena: "Okay this time I'm gonna pay attention to the lyrics and figure out what they're symbolizing. Not like I need to watch the fight anyway, it's all stock shot". Me at the end of every fight in Utena: "Well, fuck you Ikuhara." Aside from J.A. Seazer's wonderful work on those songs, Utena also has some great regular tracks though. Can't believe I forgot to mention it earlier! ...Well okay, a lot of stuff is ripped off from public domain classical music. But I don't care, it's great!

Scars Unseen Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Kind of cheating on some of these since some are from movies or OVAs, but they also may not be quite as commonly referenced due to age Armitage III Polymatrix had a great soundtrack that really fit the cyberpunk feel of the show https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b9ZZ-TeoPIA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_tARgcDXHRE Iria: Zeiram The Animation wasn't big on the bombast, but it had a great OST with a fair bit of subtlety to it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nOnxIEOK8WY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GiHDbBOyb6E https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=94Lm1X03gmQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uMIXZbD-wRI Last Exile... Hey! An actual series! Okay, I think this show is fairly well known, but maybe some people have forgotten how awesome the soundtrack is. I haven't https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ENlm68ZHC0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pwAHXK4KMw0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5MRSVd1MUu0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4hQhGFG_MSw Huh... just noticed that the same woman composed for Last Exile and Code Geas.
