Favorite Awakening Ost Poll

[humist1]

Though a bit saddened when i heard tsujiyoko was not scoring the game, i was blown away by the quality of the ost. Almost every ablaze track gives me goosebumps/tears every battle, everytime. Not only are they perfectly fitting to the overall theme, but the use of fading in/out of a parallel track is amazing everytime it's done right. Kondo does that a lot in zelda, can't think of any other examples.

Anyways just wanted to see what some of your favorites are, if your favorite is not listed here, let me know!:

If thumbnails were told the story of the game, Nowi and Tharja would be the main characters. It really is a game aimed directly at the jugular of anime fans.

None of the tracks stand out to me like the ones in earlier titles. Music in a story driven game serves to heighten the mood of a scene, and while Awakening's soundtrack did just that, nothing is very memorable to me. FE9 and especially 10 blast characterizing bgms that not only give scenes tone, but make them feel important and distinct.

Conquest is the one I like the most out of this list. Don't speak her name is used very well, but listening to it on its own doesn't have the same impact as it does in chapter 10.

Good points here, between those two I liked both but leaned towards FE9 bgms a bit more especially the chapter Ike promotes and Crimea attacks/decisive attack plays. Still one of my favorite moments in the series.
