She's still the best composer, right?

Kajiura will never do something as good as this:

>>149628926
KnK was her prime
>>149628926
>still
She never was.
>>149629045
>mai-hime anon...
>>149628926
She is a hack, just like Suwanoi still like her, tho
I thought Yoko Kanno is undisputed #1 in anime.
>>149629830
How is she a hack HOW?
>>149628926
KNK > Madoka > Fate/Zero > everything else she did
I used to love Kenji Kawai too.
He also did the OST of a GOAT french documentary about the WW2
She recently did the music for a Chinese CG film called L.O.R.D.
From what I could hear from the camrips, the music is pretty good.
These are the main themes:

(Male singer in a Kajiura song. Really fucking rare)

>>149628926
Overrated producer that shits out generic OSTs,
Fuck off.
>>149632499
Almost everything she's done before and after is better than Madoka and F/Z.
>>149628926
female Hans Zimmer
>>149633694
I disagree, I think Madoka's OST was really beautiful. Different strokes I guess.
>>149633763
Most of her soundtracks aren't bombastic and epic, so no.
>>149628926
yes
pretty much every song sounds the same
i much prefer yoko kanno music thief over her
That's not Yoko Shimomura.
>>149628926
She (male) is truly amazing.
>>149634124
Has she done any anime?
>>149634165
Kingdom Hearts might as well be anime.
>>149628926
>>149628926
And the most beautiful too
Which uta hime would you fug?
>>149634165
She done Pandora Hearts. The work was amazing but the anime wasn't. Manga was a lot better.
>>149636505
Pandora Hearts was done by Kajiura, not Shimomura.
DOES NO ONE RESPECT HIM AROUND HERE.
I'm still pissed off over how bad the Zero ost is compared to KnK
She better not fuck up HF
>>149629847
Not in the Post Aniplex industry where they just spam Sawano and Kajiura anytime they want the hype kids attention
>>149628926
She made some good stuff but she's been stagnant since Kara no Kyoukai.
>>149638668
Rebellion and Hanako were great though.
>>149636803
I respect him

>>149636803
He's a good composer, but to me personally, most of his works aren't very impressive. I really enjoy his Free and Horizon OSTs though
>>149629830
They're both just Aniplex bitch composers to be thrown onto any project they want to be popular and just roll the same style of soundtracks that could easily be swapped in and out between series without there being a noticeable difference. They're just another part of the whole mass production hype show model that Aniplex has ridden for most of the 2010's so far. Like most of the shit they plug both of them got really old really fucking fast over the course of the 2010's and whatever perceived quality they had at one point in their careers no longer holds any meaning. They're hype because they're hype and "the best" cause Sony says so to people and their soundtracks are barely vetted, just praised for existing. It's all just kind of meaningless and pointless and it sucks cause they're the only two fucking composers anyone will talk about anymore.
At least to say something positive Kajiura doesn't seem to automatically guarantee a shit anime nowadays like Sawano does though, just usually mediocre. Sawano can eat a fucking dick though like most of the trash anime he composes for.
>>149636803
Because he's boring as shit.
>>149628926
Yoko Kanno was better.
>>149628926
She seems pretty limited as a composer actually. It's almost all basic pop formula stuff.
I think skill wise Taku Iwasaki and Michiru Oshima are the best currently.
>>149636803
His stuff is servicable in context but pretty bland on its own. Actually it's so bland it fits with almost anything, which is why he can do like 4 shows each season. Same goes for Masaru Yokoyama.
>>149646367
>I think skill wise Taku Iwasaki and Michiru Oshima are the best currently.
Iwasaki is a huge asshole but damn talented.
If I find a good Kajiura song that I like, I put it into the Hiroyuki Sawano folder. If I find it passable I rename it with a random number and put it into the others folder.
>>149647475
>Iwasaki is a huge asshole
First time I'm hearing this, explain?
>>149628926
Sahashi is
>Big O
>FMP
>>149649122
He sometimes complains about the shows he composes for on twitter. Most recent case was Qualidea Code I think.
>>149649607
Who didn't complain about QUALITY Code?
