Kamen Rider Music

[ardzeii]

Kamen Rider Blade's soundtracks are my favorite soundtracks among the Rider series. Next to that would be Den-O's and Kabuto's (although I didn't really like the series that much). I think I still saw some KRBlade audio CDs over at play-asia, although I'm not too sure about this...

Oh yeah, I'm sorry for hijacking the thread, but I saw the title and I think that my question fits the topic anyway, so I didn't see a need to create a new topic. Why don't KR episodes have ending songs? Some of the audio albums list ending songs in their compilations, but I haven't seen a recent KR show with an ending song sequence. Why is this?

Thanks! (again, sorry for the hijack...)

The "ending themes" are the songs that play during battles. Den-O's various Action songs, Kabuto's "Full Force" and "Lord of the Speed", Kiva's "Destiny's Play", etc.

Oh, okay... But then, why do they call them ending themes instead of insert songs? *confused* (or maybe they're pertaining to the end of the enemy, because they play during battles? *head explodes*)

They usually come at the end of an episode, and their insert music is generally nonlyrical. Other than that, I can't offer any more guesses.

Yeah. Most of that battles are at the end of the episode, so it makes sense that the battle music is called ending/outro themes.

Den-O have too many songs inside the soundtrack.

>_>

I can't recommend Hibiki's music enough. Both the original opening "Kagayaki" and Akira Fuse's "Shounnen Yo" are just too awesome not to have. Also the BGM is first rate, possibly the most diverse range of musical instrumentation ever used for a Rider series.

This isn't an mp3 trading site. People can buy the CDs just fine
