Description
This was something I wanted to do for awhile and that was to create music for a manga, pretending the manga is getting an Anime adaptation and drawing up a music list from the manga to compose to.
HUGE disclaimer, all soundtracks were created by me, HOWEVER, I am NOT in charge of the soundtracks for when the manga gets an Anime adaptation nor do I have anything planned out with anyone. I have no direct contact or relations with the manga’s author/artist nor their agency.
The manga and art (including this cover art) is drawn by Ryuuichi Sadamatsu, I do not own nor did I help Sadamastu draw the manga or art, I simply took the art off the internet. Please go support him by reading the manga and following his Twitter.

When reading the manga, the instrumentation that comes to mind for me was definitely not full orchestral. So writing the music was somewhat uncomfortable since I mostly compose using orchestral instruments and the manga gave me guitar, drum kit, electric guitar, piano, etc instrumentation vibes. and that the overall style or genre is not something I compose a lot of. So mixing these instruments I was mostly going by how it sounds and by my gut feeling.
During the composition process, I pretended that I am composing this for an Anime adaptation, as such, I tried to structure my music in a way that is easy for the Sound Director to conform, whether I achieved that I am still unsure.
Soundtracks I struggled composing: Honestly they were all pretty difficult for me but if I have to pick, "Intense Nervous" was the one I struggled the most to create. Both the instrumentation and the overall genre or mood is something I was unfamiliar with, so it was difficult for me to even make something mediocre.

Sorry, I didn't want to post about 10 screenshots of my DAW so I posted a screenshot of my project folder containing the Cubase projects.

I'm kind of known as the weirdball around here so my bias is when something is -so- well done it's too straight down the middle. But everything about this set of tracks (and a fine effort putting so -many- tracks into a system like this) is consistent with a top-notch console adaptation of an Anime. I felt right at home listening to this when I have sampled countless JRPG things.
Love all of these tracks! Very cozy and fun-sounding.
great job!
