The Review!
1 out of 5

This CD came to me packaged with only a front cover page with the characters picture and name of the CD on it.

This CD is a collection of very almost every stereotypical music type found in anime. It has a few soulful, or attempts t soulful songs, some quick tempo J-pop, Techno, New Age, and even a couple Reggae type tracks. With collections of song styles like that, the listener would expect a great musical movement that leaves no emotion unturned. However, that listener would be wrong. Though the mix of musical styles was intriguing, there just seemed to be something missing. The music just seemed to be lacking heart as it played out over the speakers. One or two songs with this problem in a single CD is common, and understandable, afterall, they can't all be number one hits, but this entire selection seems to be filled with the lowest end of the charts in all genres. All in all, I was not really impressed with the music. Good concept, bad follow through, leads to a disappointing sound

Fangboy says…the show may be great, but the music sure isn’t worth it.
