I'm already into anime long before I met Yuki Kajiura's name on the field, after I became an insane fan, I discovered that I was already listening to her.

Finished Watching:
1) Gundam Seed and Gundam Seed Destiny - I loved Akatsuki no Kuruma and Honoo no Tobira after watching it. It's what brought me into Yuki's arms.

2) Mai Hime - I thought it was a girly girly anime but forced myself to watch it because of Mezame. it turned out to be an awesome experience. 2 years before I became a Kajurian, my Ex bestfriend had me listen to 'It's Only A Fairytale' to her phone, I love it without knowing that it was Yuki's song. It must be destiny.

3) Sora No Woto - Hikari No Senritsu (I like the anime eventhough the drawing style is moe moe)

4) Tsubasa Chronicles - I watch it before I knew Yuki composed for the OST and dropped it after 2 episodes. In the end, I forced myself into finishing it all for Yuki's sake. (This anime is too boring, slow phased and ridiculous for me. I'm allergic to Sakura and Syaoran Rabu Rabu )

5) Madlax - Yuki is the reason of course. Kind a didn't understood the plot at first. Nice anime. One of my favourites.

6) Fate/Zero - Epic. Mah favourite.

7) Kara No Kyoukai - great!

8) Pandora Hearts - Plot is good, Alice is annoying, watched after searching all Yuki anime related stuffs.

9) Kuroshitsuji - I don't like the anime but completed watching the 2 seasons.

10) Puella Magi Madoka Magica

Not Finished yet: I'll continue watching it soon
1) Aquarian Age - I stopped at episode 4, I got bored but I already heard Zodiacal Sign playing at the background.

2) Ookamikakushi - Stopped at episode 4

3) Noir - Episode 2

4) Sacred Seven - dropped it at Episode 7

Wants to watch:
1) El Cazador De La Bruja
2) .Hack (all of 'em)
3) Achilles To Kame
4) Rekishii Hiwa Historia
5) Bakumatsu Kikansetsu Irohanihoheto
6) Hokuto No Ken
7) Baccano
8) Chrono Crusade
9) Fullmetal Panic
10) Elemental Gerad
11) Le Portrait de Petit Cossette
12) Eve No Jikan

I usually listen to and enjoy Yuki's music before I listen to it on the anime.

Okay, I'll re-write mine :D


ALREADY WATCHED

Gundam SEED and Gundam SEED Destiny - just like murrue02, this is my first anime that I've watched wherein Yuki was involved. But I haven't actually watched it in order since it was just hit and miss in my hometown...I usually had classes on the time slot. And OP and ED were always cut in the airing. The first song I heard was Fields of Hope, then mizu no akashi on the re-run of SEED.

Tsubasa CHronicle - Okay, not the best anime... Beetrain and CLAMP had a disagreement over the second season that's why it was filled with many filler episodes. The manga, is better. I asked my friend to buy me the first OST as a present for my birthday... well without knowing who the composer is. You see, tsubasa is one of those anime that features the bgms louder than the dialogues. First song to like was FictionJunction KAORI's tsubasa, then a song of storm and fire.


Shonen Onmyouji - This is a very favorite anime of mine. Really loved the OP. I remembered humming the melody as I took my entrance exam for college

Elemental Gerad - hahaha I had fun memories with this one. Really loved everlasting song.

Pandora Hearts
 - Okay this is where I started getting more into Yuki Kajiura. I really love the first six episodes until the animation got really lame -_-. I also started reading the manga but dropped it around the Humpty Dumpty Arc because the updates were really slow. Oh and it was also around this time that I decided to listen to Kalafina stuffs.

Ookami Kakushi - I started enjoying FictionJunction more. The anime was really boring. Not my type. But somewhere around the middle, things got interesting. But that was just it. End.

Kara no Kyokai - Let me tell you that it was already around Kalafina's Redmoon that I started to watch this anime. The movies were really great. I personally loved Mujun no Rasen because of M24 and sprinter.

Puella Magi Madoka Magica - Started to watch along with fellow forum members. Pretty likeable though not my cup of tea.

Sacred Seven - The OP and ED were good. But the story's very meh. :uh..:

Fate/Zero
 - I started watch FSN back when I was still in senior high school. I loved it :D I was really excited when Fate/Zero was announced.

MADLAX - I managed to find a living download link for this one somewhere. Really loved MADLAX 'cause she's so cool and so klutzy :D Personally, I love MADLAXxVanessa and MADLAXxLimelda. Hehehe


STILL WATCHING

sword art online - I love REMI! Am so happy when I learned that she'll be singing for Kajiura.

Gundam SEED HD Remastered - love the HD-ness


GLIMPSE OF YUKI

CHrono Crusade - Never really watched it but I remembered the ED Sayonara Solitia. I was lucky that it wasn't cut.

.hack//Roots - Managed to listen to silly-go-rounds in Animax broadcast. But never really watch the series


DROPPED

Amatsuki - The ED was good! But the anime is meh again.

LOVELESS - I heard that the manga was really smexy. Well it's a yaoi anime. I fell inlove with the OP. I never really expected yuki to compose for one.

:knife:

Me too, it was aired late in the afternoon, It was the 3rd time that it became my favourite and decided to get my own copy.

Just wanna add, I want to watch Amatsuki too since I love the song Yuki composed for it.
 
just watched first eps of SAO~ :ohoho: I thought I wouldn't like it for no particular reason but now...I wish I had started it when it started airing :cry:
already can't wait till the ost comes out :nosebleed:
 
.hack//SIGN: The first anime I watched with Kajiura-sensei's works in it. However, I had no idea who the composer was at that time except that I kept replaying the scenes over and over again just for the songs. :XD:

Tsubasa Chronicle: I had been following the manga long before the anime was created. The anime was bad due to numerous fillers but Kajiura-sensei's songs were my only motivation to pull through the 2 seasons and other OAVs. Besides that, Mokona was just too cute for me to stop watching.

Pandora Hearts: Watched it because of Kajiura-sensei's works but fell in love with the anime that I continued on to the season 2. Hopefully, there would be a third season. I want to see a *twisted* Jack. :dote:

Amatsuki: Had no idea that Kajiura-sensei composed the themesong. Boring anime but somehow, I finished it. LOL~

Shounen Onmyouji: Again, watched it without knowing that Kajiura-sensei composed the opening themesong until I saw her name at the credits. Loved the story, characters, seiyuus etc. I started buying and reading all the light novels after that. Still following the novels currently. :XD:

Sacred Seven: Watched it because of Stone Cold but meh...dropped after 2 episodes. Boring.

Fate//Zero: Watched it for the sole reason: Kajiura-sensei's works. :shy:

Kara no Kyoukai: Same reason as Fate//Zero.

Sword Art Online: Same reason as above.

Mai-Otome: Same reason as above.

Kuroshitsuji: Loved the anime to bits and of course, our utahime's songs. :shy:
 
Shows I wanted to watch solely or in part because of Kajiura

Mai-Hime - It's all right enough, but kind of generic fanservicey show. Liked the music

Pandora Hearts -- Really enjoyed what I saw been wanting to finish, fantastic OST, so far one of the last really really good ones by Kajiura

Fate/Zero -- Meh couldn't get past episode 1 it was incredibly boring and packed full of exposition. Partly picked it up because it was also based on one of Urobuchi's works. Music is nothing special either

Puell Magi Madoka Magica -- Probably would have watched this eventually but not sure I would have jumped right into it, if not for Yuki's contribution. Nice enough music but not one of her best either. Great series overall though really love it.

Aquarian Age -- Very very dull series and unlikely going to finish. Music is the only saving grace.

Sword Art Online -- Part of this was Yuki part of this was the plot sounded intriguing. It's a double let down in this case. The plot is crap and the music is largely forgettable. So very disappointed.


Already watched

.hack Franchise .hack//SIGN, Liminality, Legend of the Twilight, Roots -- Shockingly I wasn't in love with the music of SIGN right away it more grew on me but I grew to love it more and more now it's one of my all time favorites both anime wise and music wise. One of Yuki's finest.

Liminality I do enjoy as a small side story and another one of her finest OSTs.

LOT-Passed on it didn't like it

Roots -- Decent enough but playing GU completes it more. Opening theme song kind of grew on me more. Ali Project's score is largely unsuitable.

Noir, Madlax and El Cazador de la Bruja - As the proclaimed "Girls With Guns Trilogy" I naturally watched them all. Not entirely clear if it was Noir or MADLAX I saw more but I personally like MADLAX the best of the three. El Cazador was better than I was expecting and I really loved El Cazador's OST. All three have a strong soundtrack but I'd probably rank it MADLAX, El Caz and Noir.

Tsubasa Chronicle+OVAs -- Read the manga before having Yuki and Bee Train was a plus to me. Don't think it's as bad as everyone says and still one of her best OSTs to date. Filler Schmiller there are series with far worse use of their filler episodes and CLAMP can be already pretty hit and miss with their own writings (BLOOD-C anyone?)

First OVA is really good and I really enjoyed it, second OVA is crap it was made solely for the readers and it was a pure vanity project for CLAMP. Theme songs for both are really good, Synchronicity is a favorite.

Chrono Crusade -- Didn't even know Yuki was involved until watching the ending credits. Love the ED, and love the series, another personal favorite.
 
Watched Hokuto no ken - Yuria den yesterday. it was boring. Hikari no yukue was awesome though.
 
I was one of the ones roped into Tsubasa because of the music... I ended up not liking the anime though.
:uh..:
 
Watched TRC because some of my fav are from there. I dont really like the anime.
Watched Madoka because I listened some OST (Surgam Identidem, Sagitta Luminis, Credens Justitiam, Decretum, ETC). I kinda like this.
Watched Fate/Zero because it's a fate series. This one is really good, far better than it's sequel. The music is mediocre compared to the former 2.

^ I discovered Yuki because of that song XD... (well obviously its my forum nick) :ohoho:

Tsubasa Chronice - Okay first off, I didn't watched this series because Kajiura is composing for it. I watched it because I was surprised a mashup of CLAMP characters when I first saw this on ANIMAX. Though later I hunted the OST down, man I was drowned at the music of this series, its like everlasting. :shy:

And the OVA dragged me here, because of that unreleased Eri BGM :uh..: :blood:

Amatsuki - watched first 3 eps, eventually dropped it because I am lazy to download the eps. :XD:

Kara no Kyoukai - Okay the very first Movie Anime that I downloaded for a week with the max download speed of 50kb/sec. :blood: The anime I am intrigued because of Kalafina, and how Kajiura's music sounded on that kind of anime genre.

Pandora Hearts / Sacred Seven - I have no idea why I watched these two. :XD:

uMadoka Magica - Love hate throughout the series.

Sword Art Online - I originally watched this for the sake of listening Yuki's music, but later I was dragged into it. xD

Others... Not interested to watch them
 
my friend in Japanese Club said to me that he loves Kalafina because Kara no Kyoukai.
and he has almost-complete Kara no Kyoukai series.
It means I'll be able to watch Kara no Kyoukai soon~ :sohappy: :sohappy:
*felicita is so lazy to download them*
 
^ you may want to watch the movies in the following order (chronologically), otherwise the story may get confusing at times
- movie 2
- movie 4
- movie 3
- movie 1
- movie 5
- movie 6
- movie 7
 
Animes finished-

Gundam Seed/Seed Destiny- the series that got me into Yuki's works. I loved Akatsuki no Kuruma and Fields of Hope. :shy: Honoo no Tobira too.

Puella Magi Madoka Magica- Credens Justitiam! Puella in Somnio, too. I also liked Descretum.

Tsubasa- I finished the anime before I found out it had Yuki's BGMs. I love Fay and Kurogane.

El Cazador de la Bruja- Romanesque. Oh, and Yuki's arrangement of Hikari no Yukue (Savage Genius). Lol, first time round I downloaded the music under "HnY Yuki Kajiura" and got Wakana's Hikari no Yukue instead. :plot: Most accidental song I have ever downloaded, but now, a priceless one. I love both Hikari no Yukues.

Petite Cosette- watched because of Ballad and Houseki, and the main theme. liked it.

Want to watch-

Fate/Zero.- will try to watch.

Noir/Madlax- I've heard that it's quite good. will try it once I have the time.

KnK- Will try because of Kalafina. hehe.
 
oh, in that order? hehehe, thanks! :XD:
my friend also said the story is confusing, i guess he was watching in common order :XD:
 
Watched because Kajiura:
- Fate/Zero (but it was also because I watched Fate/Stay Night years ago)
- Tsubasa Chronicles (well, I didn't watch the anime because it's incomplete, but I read the manga)
- Kara no Kyoukai

Plan to watch:
- Gundam Seed (because Anna Issho Datta no ni and Akatsuki no Kuruma, but also it's because of T.M.Revolution. and my boyfriend 's influence )
 
Re:

Old list:
Mobile Suit Gundam SEED (HD Remaster also)/SEED Destiny
Pandora Hearts
Sacred Seven - even if it is only an OP/ED theme
Fate/Zero
Sword Art Online - still something to look forward to...
Click to expand...
WATCHED and COMPLETED
Chrono Crusade - unaware before that Yuki Kajiura composed a song for this
Mobile Suit Gundam SEED/SEED Destiny - Also have no idea that Yuki Kajiura was involved, but I started liking See-Saw's songs as well as Akatsuki no Kuruma and Shinkai no Kodoku
Pandora Hearts - My passion. This anime introduced me to Yuki Kajiura and FictionJunction.
Black Butler I - Good story, encounter with Kalafina
Sacred Seven - Because of the OP/ED songs by FJ and Yuuka Nanri
Fate/Zero - Follower of the Fate animated series, getting awed at Yuki's music as well as Kalafina's to the beginning
Sword Art Online - Watched this initially because of Yuki's music
Puella Magi Madoka Magica - Made me watch also because of the music and Mami

WILL HOPEFULLY WATCH
All of Tsubasa Chronicles - already listening to some of its tracks, with "tsubasa" as my favorite
Gundam SEED Destiny HD Remaster - just for the music, hoping for a Retracks version of Shinkai no Kodoku and Kimi wa Boku ni Niteiru, as well as having a new FictionJunction song (hopefully they don't replace Nami Tamaki's Reason though because many will not be pleased).
