damn tough imo love unicorn and kara no kyoukai ost both so much
Mason Green
sawano has this distinctive tune aka same shit
Michael Johnson
Kajiura had more good shows under her belt before she stopped doing anything new, but I liked AnE's soundtrack far more than any of Kajiura's stuff. Ultimately they're both repetitive shit now, but Kajiura maybe a little less so.
Dominic Parker
Nothing from Kaijura can top Unicorn or Ao no Exorcist.
I still lover her work though.
Kayden Jackson
Who cares?
I put the best bgms into my Sawano folder.
Nathaniel Cruz

Oliver Stewart
Fits on either board, but is more relevant to Sup Forums due to the particular artists being discussed.
Now fuck off and neck yourself, faggot.
Hudson Cox
DEY BOTH SUCK BIG DONKEY DICK
Levi Price
Susumu Hirasawa
Jacob Fisher
Tanaka FUCKING Kouhei
Gabriel Hall
Both are shit
Lincoln Reed
They are btoh one trick ponies
Jason Hernandez
Voted Kajiura. Why? Her composition in this:
Henry Morgan
Iwasaki Taku
Jaxon White
Sup Forums is too busy masturbating to In the aeroplane over the sea to give two shits about your talentless hack animu composers
Ian White
Lil Wayne
Robert Roberts
>what is mai-hime
>what is madoka
>what is noir
Evan Bell
Sawano makes cool sounds, Kajiura composes great emotional melodies.
Benjamin Allen
All shit tbqdesu
John Lee
ever since Attack on Titan some shows has started to adopt this obnoxious cliche where the music rises to this clusterfuck of orchestra whenever some character shouts inspiring quotes or talks about how he's going to definitely succeed in whatever the fuck he's gonna try.
Cameron Carter
Sawano and Kajiura are both shit and have been pre-established in this thread. You basically saying anything is shit in here is like saying water is wet.
Kevin Davis
Kajiura hasn't been spammed like Sawano in recent years, so for now she's "better". Also helps that even though her music is equally repetitive, it sounds much better than Sawano's same old drops.
Gavin Watson
Don't blame the composers
blame temp music
>making anime
>okay so everything is animated we just need the soundtrack
>director is in love with Attack on Titan
>slap the AoT OST over their anime for temporary music
>director: actually wait, this music is perfect, let's use this
>composer:yeah but isn't it, you know, illegal to just use this music
>director: just emulate it.
If you ever wonder why some soundtracks from certain shows sounds a lot like a soundtrack from another show, now you know why.
Dominic Adams
Kajiura. This is easy.
Luke Parker
Producers/sound designers/whatever should definitely stop hiring Sawano for spectacular action shows.
Well, it's okay, but not a reason to not try something else guys. His TV dramas soundtracks sound more diverse.
Hunter Phillips
Damn you Sony Music/Aniplex.
Btw I hope Heaven's Feel OST will be great. Please Kajiura do your best.
Mason Davis
it's the same cookie cutter method too
>music slowly rising
>music stops for a second so we can hear the character scream at the top of his lungs or say some stupid shit
>BUUHHHHH DUUUUUUUUHHH DUHHHH DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
It's lazy
Kayden Butler
>kajiura is dominating the polls
Retarded Fatefags are at it again.
Elijah Hall
Voted Sawano, but neither is anywhere near my favorites.
This practice is also to blame for a lot of "plagiarism" cases I think. It's still not enough to explain Yoko Kanno though.
Nathan Hall
I like Kalafina and I'm not ashamed to admit it.
Angel White

Zero has a great soundtrack, yes. Nowhere near her strongest though.
Jose Powell
Mai HiME's soundtrack shits on everything Sawano could ever hope to make.
Jace Peterson
same here, first album was great
Oliver Brooks
FictionJunction > Kalafina
Brandon Collins
Kajiura sounds less like knockoff Hans Zimmer, so that it makes her better by default.
Austin Carter
FictionJunction has some great songs, but it's just a name to gather most of Kajiura's songs, even though now we might think it is a group composed of Wakana-Yuriko-Keiko-Kaori.
Kalafina is a true unified group.
Both are (were) great imo.
Robert Kelly
Sawano /thread
Jayden Adams
Unicorn shits all over that and anything Kajiura could ever make.
Nathan Cruz
...
Robert Smith
Tatsuya Kato
Dominic Sullivan
Both make the same stuff everytime
Kayden Davis
No idea who those 2 are
Adrian Ortiz
Remember when Kajiura literally reused a Fate Zero track in SAO?
Jaxon Long
Unicorn is the single best OST of any show so it has to be Sawano.
Overall though he has become repetitive.
Jaxson Morris
t. Aniplex shil
Landon Stewart
No. Can you give examples of that?
Ethan Sanders
No one
Yoko Kanno and Taku Iwasaki are better than both
Aiden Lewis
Kajiura's good, but Unicorn alone is way better than everything she has ever made.
Post Unicorn Sawano is shit though.
Jonathan Murphy
The real question OP is:
Who are better western or eastern composers?
Aiden Robinson
Susumu hirasawa is amazing. But his stuff doesn't really fit with everything.
Ayden Perez

Cooper Turner
>he will never come back
Christopher James
You're fooled by the instruments which are the same, it's not exactly the same melody. But each track would both work well in either Fate or SAO, I'll give you that.

Justin Gray
Never understood why Sup Forums gets all assblasted over them for being "repetitive" while people like Yasuhara get a free pass.
In fact, most anime composers are guilty of it. You only take notice of these two because their soundtracks are actually worth remembering.
Luis Rivera
Nice try faggot.
Sebastian Fisher
who
Luis Adams
>Yasuhara
Literally who?
Henry Hill
Sawano is the best
Kajiura doesn't fucking work
Jaxon Price
Shikata >>>> power gap >>> everyone else
Landon Gomez
Heavens Feel and Zaregoto baby
Lincoln White
Sawano has done one fantastic soundtrack. Kajiura has done zero (unless you count Boogiepop and Others which isn't anime).
Christian Johnson
Sawano is a breath of fresh air in the anime landscape
Jayden Jones
Among his best work, and better than a lot of Kajiura's catalogue.
Really, you could just get this OST and you'd have no reason to listen to 90% of Sawano's work.
Caleb Barnes
Post your favorite Sawano track.
Noah Martin
Awesome song, but I went to check out the series it was for and WHAT?
Lincoln Smith
Is the OST out already?
Give a try, seriously.
Isaac Anderson
>Mediocre pop rock vs mediocre string arrangements

Benjamin Butler
Puppets are the future of anime. Get with the times, gramps.
Nolan Walker
>Post Unicorn Sawano is shit though
Blue Exorcist was after Unicorn, though. If you liked Unicorn's then you should definitely listen to it, since it was actually his last good soundtrack before AoT ahegao'd every anime director in the past decade and ensured we'd never hear anything else from Sawano again.
Leo Nguyen
Maybe they are. I have a co-worker that wanted me to watch the OP for this show and he's a normal fag that doesn't even watch anime.
Puppets creep me out though. I feel bad they do because I feel like people that love puppets probably hear that all the time. But thats how it do.
Ian Rodriguez
Guilty Crown and Thunderbolt are great
He hasn't lost his touch yet
Lincoln Mitchell
Because Yasuhara has only one good soundtrack and it's for a terrible show where it's the only redeeming aspect. Everything else is just a really phoned in version of that soundtrack.
Jose Peterson
seriously who is yasuhara
Christian King
en.wikipedia.org
His good one is FT.
Juan Hernandez
It seems the soundtracks he composes for TV dramas don't have this problem tho.
Carter Brooks
shit, I know who Yasuharu is but I thought Yasuhara was a different person. love all his music especially mononoke and shippuden.
Isaiah Allen
I fully agree.
His music is lovely.
Adam Wilson
>everyone praises Unicorn
>no one remembers Gigantic Formula
>no one remembers Sawano's 20-minute orchestral masterpiece
Why does nothing he make sound anywhere nearly as good as this anymore?
Joshua Wood
>the whole thing
Holy fucking shit, my penis
Jace Young
Ayden Cook
It's the curse of Guilty Crown.
Brody Sanchez
>Mononoke
>Shiki
These are both great. Admittedly a lot of his stuff tends to be some form of Precure rehash, though.
Parker Foster
Sawashit ruined Xenoblade, fuck him.
Benjamin Powell
Obviously it's Kajiura.
Nathan Lewis
Nintendo USA ruined Xeno first anyway.
Logan Morris
I miss when Sawano didn't shove vocals into every fucking thing.
Julian Ross
Kajiura is the fuck of a one trick pony but her pieces are more memorable IMO. She's also got this talent for making you want to do air violin.
youtube.com
Sawano is more varied but isn't as catchy.
Jackson Scott
Sawano's OST for Sengoku Basara 1&2 were fucking amazing. Sadly he never did similar stuff again.
Ian Morris
