    Which of your favorite (non overall music-genre) anime series has music that is so integral/essential to your ongoing enjoyment while watching it that its absence or significant reduction of the amount of it would seriously impact your enjoyment of the anime? For me, for example, it is clearly FLCL.

    Yo, y'all gotta check out Rustage if u haven't already. Most of his songs are on Spotify, SoundCloud, and all of them are on YT. These are some of his album covers that I use for characters C.ai.

    Searching for a song minimal info

    Hello, I’m helping my incarcerated brother search for a song. This is the info he sent me. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks 😊

    “I'm trying to figure out a song, and its not going to be easy. Okay, so we've got these couple of anime radio stations on our player, and I've been listening to the "alternative anime radio" station, and there's one song I really like, but they don't tell the name, singer, or even what anime its from.

    So its a guy. And he starts out kind of talk-singing, slowly getting more into it as the song builds. There are a couple rising siren sounds in the song, as well as digital glitching sounds added to his voice. Its very hard to make out the words, not only cuz its in Japanese by because of his whisper singing and the distortion. The very last line of the song is, I think "nani mo shirae no daken" But possibly, "nani mo shirai e no dake"

    Help? Lol”

    Sample voice in multiple songs

    So I've come across a lot of anime inspired songs and some of them start with what sounds like Chuck Huber saying the line "I wouldn't mess with them if i were you there called" than I can't hear what he says it sounds like he's either doing his Android 17 from Dragon Ball kr Hehei from Yu-Yu-Hakasho. I've listened to one as recently as a few days ago but can't remember the song will edit if I can find it. But what my question is what series is that voice like from? I'mjust curious because I can't seem to find it online

    Edit: found one Phantom shift (feat Jamar rose) by Garlick Z

    Free Tickets Up and Coming Japanese Metal Band LA Echo Nov 4th

    I represent Asterism, an up-and-coming metal band based in Japan. They are returning to Los Angeles to play their largest solo show in the US at the Echo Monday, November 4th. We wanted to reach out to offer free tickets to their upcoming show for your group.

     

    Below is their new album and a link to their graphic novel that partners with their EP as well as their social links

    https://open.spotify.com/album/5j35zbPyAA6DaT12WzJXTN?si=-RCtIWxaSc63LOgz_9L5IA

     

    Here is their website that discusses some of the details of the graphic novel in combination with the new ep

    https://www.planetofmetal.com/

    ASTERISM is a three-piece instrumental heavy metal band consisting of HAL-CA (Gt.), MIYU (Ba.), and MIO (Dr.). All three have enjoyed music since childhood, HAL-CA worked solo, MIO and MIYU worked as a unit of brothers. In 2014, the three met at a major Japanese music competition.

     

    They have been active both domestically and internationally since their early teens, touring the US and Asia, including an appearance at "SXSW".

    In March 2023, they made their major debut with SME Records. They played Anime Expo in 2023 and 2024

     

    They are aiming for further global expansion with a new genre "MASS METAL" which means "metal that reaches, resonates, and is loved by the masses", based on their meticulously composed music and their unique pop sensibilities.

    Did Yu-Gi-Oh GX theme and Beyblade theme have the same vibe?

    I think they were using the same formula for the intros, or am I tripping? (The music, not the animations)

    Been listening to this from the day of it's release and I can surely say that it's one of the best albums of Radwimps.
