Best Themes.......2007-02-10

This CD contains some of the Best Themes in Rurouni Kenshin series (mentioned above); However, It would have been better if all the RK themes were in one CD. I enjoyed it very much and still listen to it. I have to buy another CD to get the rest of songs though.

Memories..........2006-05-14

Being a fan of Rurouni Kenshin, just having finished the TV series and looking forward to the movies and OVA, this CD was a must. I love Tactics and One Half and already know the lyrics from watching the episodes! I listen to the CD while looking at manga and artbooks.
It was a must for my music library. A lot of time and money went into the making of these soundtracks and it was worth it! The CD would make a great gift for kids - upbeat and fun!

RuroKen Theme Collection.......2006-03-15

The Rurouni Kenshin anime has some very good ending and beginning songs. Though I heard some of them in English first, I'm not sure where to get them in English. Meanwhile, the ones in Japanese are just as fun (just a little harder to sing along to).

If you import the CD onto iTunes (or whatever), the tracks will, for the most part, pop up with title and artist names in kana (pictographs). To make life easier, here is a list of the tracks as far as I've been able to get (so if I'm wrong, I'm sorry):

Freckles (Sobakasu), by Judy and Mary. This song can seem really annoying at first, but give it a few chances, it's pretty cute.
Tactics, by The Yellow Monkey. A great rock song, I really like the melody.
Tears Know (Namida wa Shitte iru), Various Artists. A kind of slowish song, maybe a little annoying, but it's pretty.
Heart of Sword - Before Dawn (Heart of Sword - Yoake Mae), by T.M.Revolution. This is a very good rock song, with a nice melody and very good harmonization (fun music).
1/2, by Various Arists. This song probably will also sound annoying at first, but give it a few chances, because it's fun.
It's Gonna Rain! by Bonnie Pink. A slower rock song, lots of fun to sing along even if you don't know the words, because 'ciao' is lots of fun to say....,
1/3 True Feelings (1/3 no Junjou na Kanjou) by Siam Shade. I always think of it as 'my heart', because that's what he says a lot amidst the Japanese lyrics. It's a very pretty song, maybe a little sad.
Everlasting Future (Towa no Mirai), Various Artists. I would like this song, except that I don't much care for the singer's voice at some points. I'm sure it doesn't annoy lots of people, but for me it keeps me from listening to it, even if I like the melody.

Then there are 2 other songs which are over 7 minutes, and not very interesting in my opinion. Sorry I can't give any information on them.

If you like this soundtrack (even if you don't), I also recommend Best of InuYasha, Samurai Deeper Kyo Vocal Album, and Naruto: Best Hit Collection.

So, great CD, but I don't recommend buying it for $40+. Buying it used you should be able to get it below $20, and that's worth it.

If you like this soundtrack (even if you don't), I also recommend Best of InuYasha, Samurai Deeper Kyo Vocal Album, and Naruto: Best Hit Collection.
