Xenosaga, along with Final Fantasy, was one of the games that I was obsessed with as a teen. I played it constantly every moment that I was not studying for school or doing homework. The design of the characters, the attacks, the plot, the exciting action and adventure, the amazing robotic characters, all of these things made me fall in love with Xenosaga.  

When I was young, I played Xenosaga Episodes 1 and 2, but when the third one came out, I was too busy with school to play it 😢. 

While playing Xenosaga, there were a few musical pieces in it that I liked a lot, and which made playing the game more exciting. Xenosaga does not have as many songs as Final Fantasy does, but it still has some beautiful pieces; so here are my top 17 favorite musical pieces from the Xenosaga Episode 1 Der Wille Zur Macht Soundtrack.

Top Best 23 Music Songs From The .Hack//SIGN Soundtrack

Best Music Top 23 Songs From .Hack//Sign

Image source: Funimation

.Hack//Sign was an anime that I was obsessed with, and played constantly when I was a teen. I even played the game with the Japanese audio. I played .Hack//Infection, .Hack//Mutation, and .Hack//Outbreak. I did not get to play .Hack//Quarantine though. 

I watched the whole .Hack//Sign anime series, all 26 episodes, and I do consider .Hack//Sign to be a classic; it was one of the best animes that had come out at that time. 

When I was younger, all of my friends had heard of .Hack//Sign, just as they had heard of Dragon Ball Z, Pokemon, Cardcaptor Sakura, and Sailor Moon. .Hack//Sign was so popular, that seven different versions were made of it: .Hack//Sign (which is the first one that came out), .Hack//Roots, .Hack//Tasogare no Udewa Densetsu, .Hack//Liminality (OVA), .Hack//Quantum (OVA), .Hack//Gift (OVA), and .Hack//Unison (Special).

One of the things that I liked most about .Hack//Sign was seeing the different worlds, the monsters, and the adventures that the game and anime presented. I also loved the Japanese voices and the music. I listened to the whole .Hack//Sign soundtrack, which has many great songs. Out of the whole soundtrack, here are my top 23 best favorite songs from the album:

Top 34 Best Music Songs From Inuyasha 犬夜叉 - Japanese Anime Audio Soundtrack 戦国御伽草子 犬夜叉

Inuyasha was a classic anime from my generation that was released in 2000 and continued until 2010. It is an old anime, but many of the old animes are far better than some of the new animes that have been released in the last few years; a lot of them have more plot, characterization, and deeper story lines than some of the newer animes. 

When Inuyasha was released, it was very famous and popular, so it has four movies, well over 100 episodes, and 8 seasons. Many animes made today only have 12-24 episodes, and only 1 or 2 seasons, so this speaks volumes about how popular Inuyasha was. Even now, I always recommend this anime to people because it is an excellent anime; a true classic.

Inuyasha was great for more than just its characterization, mixing of time periods, supernatural elements, graphics, plot and story line; it was also known for having exceptionally great music. 

I loved the music in Inuyasha and even bought a few of their CDs. Throughout the 8 seasons of Inuyasha, there are numerous songs, but out of all of those songs, here are my top 34 absolute favorite songs from the soundtrack.
