This soundtrack is truly fantastic. I've listened to it many times over the last week. Truly a masterpiece.

When I saw CDjapan had 1 copy left of the First Press Edition, I just had to buy it. Got it today and I'm really impressed with the entire package of the CD, and how they've layered the cover on multiple pieces of plastic foils. The entire CD and case just looks really nice.

My favorite tracks are: Is (feat. POP ETC), 22 (feat. Ryo Nagano), Hanna (feat. Hanna Berglind), and Nc17.

Aaa! So you're the one who bought that last piece!!
I'm so excited to buy one. It looks amazing.

A little damage makes people more interesting, right?

Yes! I'm really, really happy with it. I rarely buy OST's, but this one is totally worth it.

Oh my god! I nearly had an aneurism when I listened to the OSTs, especially von. Why? Because it's in icelandic! :D
I just wanted to point it out that the language of the vocal DOES exist and the lyrics are very beautiful. I was just so excited when I heard the OST because I actually understood what he was singing.

The 2nd OST is great.

I find it really striking how most of the tracks in the new album only played about once or twice in the show, but I can remember all the scenes they're played in. I've never reached this level of familiarity with a soundtrack before, especially for a show I've never bothered to rewatch; it's great.

10/10 Yoko Kanno proves that she is a goddess once again

My favorite part of the second ost is how some songs have the same structure but just different enough to have a change.

Like the song kvak, where it was fugl I believed but without the strings and gave a lonely piano mood. I felt depressed afterwards.

Or vad, where the song uses the same beat from Veat, the dadada dada.

Uses the same structure but switches it up with guitars and this very old/slightly influenced reggae music. I love it.

The second soundtrack is even better than the previous one. At least from my subjective point of view.

Dind't even notice the 2nd ost until recently. Got hooked on this again. Especially track 7. That song by yuuki ozaki should have been included in the anime.

I'm just glad she didn't do what she did with Darker than Black and not release the rest of the music used in the show.

Anyway, the OST(s) was definitely the best part about the show.

Her music just touches your soul and adds to the anime as a whole, it doesn't matter what anime it is. She just has so much talent.
