5.0 out of 5 stars From the anime series that shocked and captivated Japan, September 25, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Neon Genesis Evangelion II (Audio CD)

The music in this cd is a lot more interesting then the other two compilements of the series . The first two songs are the best I have heard on any other Japanese animenation soundtracks .They are solid songs which dipicts the series ideas well . If you don't understand japanese it's O.K because like the other two cds (Neon genesis evangelion 1 and Neon genesis evangelion 3 ) it only has a little bit of japanese the rest of the cd has the background music and some funny voiced japanese voice actors trying to sing the english version of FLY ME TO THE MOON . Track 24 is recorded in an espeically cute voice and the leaflet included with the cd has all the lyrics . Track one althrough it is recorded in Japanese has an sombre mood to it and very additive to listen to . The second track has a cheesy begining but when the beat starts there nothing holding you back . It is espeically additive if you've seen the series for this is the title track for each episode . A lot of band music and marching music as well as a bit of horror music but all in good taste and extremely addictive ( I almost broke my cd player cause I overloaded it with playing the cd for ages ) For those who have seen the series it will bring back fond memories and an interesting aura in the music . Buy this cd if you are interested in anime music or if you are just openminded about music . An truly magnificant masterpiece in my and many other peoples book . Buy it and hear what all the awards were for .

5.0 out of 5 stars Anime addictions, June 4, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Neon Genesis Evangelion II (Audio CD)

I am an avid fan of the very controversial, yet incredible anime series, Neon Genesis Evangelion(NGE or Eva). The music presented in the soundtrack was unlike, but better than my predictions. Consequently, I listen to it all the time. For those of you who are not familiar with either anime and/or japanese- this CD might charm you regardless. The emotional instrumental tracks might create an anime addiction! The CD reflects the series' depth of feeling and character development, two things that are becoming scarcely seen on TV or the movie screen, especially here in the USA. I implore you to give this CD a chance, regardless of the high price.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Nice Soundtrack, September 27, 2009

By	Jeremy L. Coatney - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

A very nice soundtrack, albeit it is a little on the quiet side by comparison to modern music and sound tracks, but that is something you find with most older musical scores and foreign music. At least that's been my experience.

I have ironically never seen the anime, so I have no idea how well the soundtrack on CD represents the soundtrack as actually heard in the anime itself.
