^ Thank you~ :sohappy: I'm afraid I'll need a larger-size image to translate that, though.

...There's no Koichi-san! :omg:
 
The full-size might be okay, thanks! :bow:

As long as I can see the kanji enough to search for the radicals :plot:
 
Can't order it now because of a long trip plan in the next three weeks... :blood: .... It seems that I must wait for at least one month for listening..
 
Oh my goodness. Kaori sounds so beautiful and haunting in Until You Find A Light :shy:

I sort of liked her the least of all the FJ girls, but that's changed now :ohoho:
 
Finishing the second playthrough in a row... :@_@:
I just can't believe it. Are you sure Rekishi Hiwa Historia is NOT produced by Bee Train? :ohoho: For a moment I thought I was listening to the long-[and-fruitlessly]-waited Future Soundscape 5. I said my expectations were high enough, but I wonder if it was true. Even with all the comments here and my anticipation, I wasn't quite ready... :nosebleed: :nosebleed: :nosebleed:

I may do a full review later, for now my faves are... oh my, one tough choice. But I'm definitely smitten by Until You Find a Light, Jubilee, A Reckless Passion (acoustic guitar+flute... long time no hear, indeed! :sohappy: ), A Forced March, I Am a Small Boat on a River, The Outbreak, You Can Go Your Own Way, Mysterious, Bad Things That Should Happen (unless it makes sense in context, this title could be the most trolling in Yuki's career :ohoho: ), Creative Power, Break Down the Door, Must Go Ahead Somehow, A Fruitless Love, To the Next Door and Symphonia... wait, did I just post the whole tracklist? :white: :desksweat: :XD:
Ah, whatever. It is THE album. Date, signature. :love: :TdT:
although we basically have 25 tracks here, since Storia is the same as the single version :psst:
 
My impressions on the OST, minus Storia and Symphonia:

Until You Find A Light: Yuri Kasahara doesn't really fit, but Kaori's gorgeous. Reminds me of Aisling singing in The Secret of Kells... 9/10

One Small Life: The usual piano. It's pretty, but there's a lot more like it. 8/10

Chaotic: Interesting, but I'm not sure if the piano fits. 7/10

Jubilee: I would've preferred Wakana or Hanae, or maybe Fion, to sing this one. Eri's voice sounds...grating to me for some reason. 5/10

Noisy and Unrest: I like how exotic this is, but with jazzy hints to it. Reminds me of Loreena McKennitt. 9/10

A Forced March: Sounds more like 'A March to Free a Kingdom' to me. 10/10

The Coming Ruin: Reminds me of Dreamcatcher with a little Complications mixed in. 9/10

I am a Small Boat on a River: I wonder where Kajiura-sensei got the idea for this song? I don't think I've ever heard anything like it from her before. Very classical, almost like something from Chopin. 9/10

A Will to Go: I like it. Flute+orchestra combo can't go wrong. 10/10

A Reckless Passion: Pretty good. Noir-ish. 8/10

The Outbreak: The strings melody is nice, the percussion is gorgeous, Yuri Kasahara's great. 10/10

You Can Go Your Own Way: One of my absolute favorites from Kajiura-sensei ever, no doubt. Just beautiful. Why can't it go on longer?? 100/10

Foreboding: Creepy... 8/10

Mysterious: Not bad. I'm still ambivalent about Eri's voice in general. 7/10

Looking Back to the Past: This sounds less wistful than I'd expect from the title. More like a song for a tea ceremony or something. 8/10

Bad Things That Should Happen: I will never understand this title. This song reminds me more of Useless Chatting! And plus it's awesome! 10/10

Town of Vigor: I like the feel to this one. Like something out of Avatar The Last Airbender. 10/10

Creative Power: Reminded me instantly of Rainbow from the Tsubasa OST. Very nice and sweet. 9/10

Break Down the Door: Something about this sounds comfortably familiar. I think it sounds like The Dreamers from Tsubasa OST. 9/10

Must Go Ahead, Somehow: Again reminds me of Tsubasa OST, this time I Talk To The Rain. Like the piano! 8/10

The Breath of the Era: More Chopin-esque piano...what an interesting style... 9/10

A Fruitless Love: This song is beautiful, and Kaori is simply magical again! I hope Kajiura-sensei keeps using her vocals in OSTs. 10/10

To The Next Door: Okay, I guess. Sounds way too similar to a certain another opening theme in this OST... 6/10

A Tiny Light: Better than The Works for Soundtrack's A Small Light...very wistful and sad. 10/10

By the way, did anyone else hear the Red Moon opening strings at the very beginning of Until You Find A Light?? :ayashii:
 
^ yes, we noticed those too.

To The Next Door: Okay, I guess. Sounds way too similar to a certain another opening theme in this OST... 6/10

It was bound to do so. Remember all Op themes in OST 1 were like the first op too.
 
why am I the only one who doesn't see the download link for RHH2??please
 
I just noticed that the melody of the OP theme is still the same as in OST 1, even the lyrics. Its just that the performance is so different :XD:
 
:XD: And I too thought I was playing the wrong file at "until you find a light".
 
The songs are completely beautiful! Symphonia is pure love and the instruments are smooth and relaxing. I love it!
