Go Shiina & (notsomuch) Yuki Kajiura to compose for Kimetsu no Yaiba

My hopes are with the ED now... But maybe we'll get someone even more mainstream lol ! *Sacra Music intensifies*

Dunno, but it seems not. Sorry but I'm totally lost, was there a premiere today ? The five first episodes, in theater ? I thought it was starting on March 29th (I plan to watch it in Japan). If YES, they would have shown the OP, right ? I can't find it anywhere.

Pure speculations by some fans, but the anime may be 24/25 episodes long. Let's hope for some original performers ! - And a commercial release of the soundtrack, or damn you Aniplex !!!

Its Yuki Kajiura x Go Shiina so i think a standalone OST will sell much better than if its bundled.
 
They sound more listenable than PV sample(s). They also sound more like standalone tracks than I was expecting so A++ for us.

I still have a strong dislike for that choir work.

@george1234 Go Shiina's OST for Emiya's menu was bundled so, eh?

The first 5? Mind you, I've only skipped through it (because lolMC shows) but weren't there like maybe 4 tracks total with each looped for the longest time? lol.
 
There seem to be at least 4 chiaki inclusive tracks which is awesome ! I wonder if it was Yuki's idea or Go Shiina pressed her. ☺️ Well yes that male choir is very stereotypical so maybe thats why we dont like it
 
I was hoping Kajiura would step away from strings this time, but every track on the stream had them :(
Still happy to hear Chiaki on a Kajiura soundtrack

もうすぐ！4月より放映開始のTVアニメーション「鬼滅の刃」、椎名豪さんとBGMを作らせていただいているのですが、私パートの作品テーマ的なフレーズ、少し民謡めいた造語ソロヴォーカルに石川智晶さんにご参加頂いております(´▽｀)。

やー鬼滅の刃、原作も滅茶苦茶面白いですがアニメの力の入り方もあらゆる方面からヤバすぎて見るの楽しみすぎるのです。私が作らせて頂いたBGMは割と冒頭数話に固まっていると思うのですが椎名さんのヤバカッコイイBGMがまた物語の展開と共に続々と増えて行きそうで！それも楽しみ！です！


I'm not sure what clip Yuki Kajiura is refering to here (or whether it's blocked outside of Japan):

What exactly is Kajiura saying in those tweets. They sound like she's finished writing her music for the show, but Go Shiina will continue writing more as the story goes on?
 
Maybe the tracks he composed only appear on plot-important moments and we will have to watch many episodes to listen to many of his, while Kajiura's are for the filler or less important / daily moments ? I think its impossible for him to keep composing as the story goes, the time is too limited, he probably has them ready beforehand too.

Here's a translation using MS's window's translator which is sometimes more accurate than GTransl

Soon! TV animation of the start airing from April "Blade of the Demon", and I have been allowed to make the BGM and go Shiina, I have been participating in the work theme phrases of my part, a little folk song coined solo vocal Mr. Chiaki Ishikawa (').

https://twitter.com/Fion0806/status/1108343397943635968

The reason for the request is simple, the song is made, and the strong voice which makes use of this phrase...... When I thought this would be a Chiaki!! (; ° ∀ °) = 3. I was happy to accept your voice if you call! Thank you Chi-chan wow

Excuse me. Thank you. The melody is baked.

The blade of the demon extermination, the original is also insanely interesting, but it is too fun to see the way of anime force is too dangerous from all sides. BGM that I was allowed to make is going to increase in succession with the development of the story is also the Yaya cool BGM of Shiina's I think that solidified in the beginning number story comparatively! It's fun too! Is!

You can enjoy the powerful voice of Mr. Ishikawa at the beginning of the first PV that is published on the official site (') ♪

Meh. The translations seem to say opposite things. I guess I'll just wait and try to be optimistic.
