Gekijōban Mahō Shōjo Madoka Magica: Walpurgis no Kaiten & FictionJunction "Kanata" single (theme song)

Skipped through it. Is it me or does it seem like there's actually not THAT much music? There's long gaps with nothing. Not even sfxish ones.

Disappointed the trailer music is all we get of Yuriko but most of what I heard seems promising, particularly the first (CM) theme. Can't wait for OST for whatever's there.

I wonder how maina would sound in "in the garden of sinners".

Your favorite meme format, huh? XD

I don't know if it's in reference to me saying there's a lot of silence (which could be wrong, I never counted for the silence/music ratio - I just skipped through audio), but I see it as a chance there might not be unreleased music in this movie once the tokuten CD is out.

Edit:
I cut up that audio and ended up with under 63minutes. Granted, I could be missing something or at times be considering too much SFX.

Still, 1 CD should be more than enough space for everything.

Plz2include trailer version of Yuriko BGM and CONCEPT MOVIE music...

It’s not a reference, it’s based on what you said about the silence and on the lack of music in recent years. Honestly, at this point I’m already expecting one or two tracks in Rayearth OST.
Even if there’s unused music, we probably won’t ever know about it or get it anyway.
 
From the audio, i mostly liked the 2 Maina tracks, the Yuriko track, and the Kanata instrumental arrangement. . The utabito battle bgm was pretty bland, probably because of the strings. The utabito track near the end reminds me of the "time to sail!" track from Fena in style. The rest were mostly more of the same.

I ll still watch the movie if it ever comes at the cinemas here, since it ll be my first 100% Kajiura cinema watch 😬

agree that there's not a ton of music, but I like what's there. I especially enjoyed the revisited themes from the tv series

My post you were quoting talked about unreleased tracks left in the movie (like in "Rebellion" or "spring song", whether we should lament their exclusion is a different matter from what I was saying), not unused. Hopefully there won't be any unreleased ones considering there doesn't seem to be more than 63 minutes of YK music in this movie.

As for unused, yes, it's easier to not worry about things we don't even know are missing. Although for my KNK example, we have heard some things that were unused.

They didn't have to release "no more fear" on Madoka recap but they did. Completely different workflow perhaps, but they didn't have to release "leave me cold" (Cossette) or "once upon a time there was you and me" (Tsubasa) but they did.

Gib everything and all, I say.
