5.0 out of 5 stars A great anime with even greater music!!!, October 15, 2001
By "rdmencia" (Miami, FL) - See all my reviews
What more could you ask for?
Not only you have here one of the greatest animes you'll ever see, but its greater Soundtrack.

In this ST you can find all the opening/ending themes from the anime series "Rurouni Kenshin" ; from the first opening "Sobakasu" (Judy & Mary) to the last ending "Kimi Ni Fureru Dake De" (Curio), I can say that all the songs are really good. There are performances by one of Japan's most famous Pop groups L'ARC~EN~CIEL, with songs such as "Fourth Avenue Cafe" and "Niji", the last one being the opening theme to the Rurouni Kenshin movie "Requiem for the Ishinshi"; I must also mention the the Japanese group ANIMETAL with their song "Towa no Nirai" (ending theme from the movie).

If you're into JPop or saw the anime and liked it, you sure can't miss this extraordinary ST.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent buy for the Kenshin fan, July 4, 2001
It's often very difficult to buy anime soundtracks without knowing exactly what's on them. The CD that one thinks has lots of vocals may be filled with nothing but instrumental background music.

Not so with this CD. You're guaranteed the best themes from Rurouni Kenshin, from the crazy "Sobakasu" by Judy and Mary to the hard-hitting "Heart of Sword" by T.M. Revolution to the very groovable "It's Gonna Rain!" by Bonnie Pink. Purchasing this CD is a sure thing. The only thing holding this album back is its length. It's a little under 50 minutes long, making it a rather short CD. But the music is excellent...some of the best you can get. And it covers a wide variety of J-pop and J-rock genres.

If you're looking for your first Kenshin album or want a solid addition to your j-pop/anime soundtrack collection, you can't do much better than this!

4.0 out of 5 stars Good but not complete, March 1, 2006
This CD contains most of the best TV anime opening and closing themes except for "Fourth Avenue Cafe" by L'ARC~EN~CIEL. Apparently there was a controversy surrounding this artist's arrest which, subsequently, has made this particular song rare. I was misguided by "rdmencia"s review that mentions this song. Upon purchasing it, I found that it does not contain this song. However, a CD soundtrack with a very similar name "Best Collection", apparently contains the song.
