That's good for people who use iTunes. (I use Amazon.) Anime smile Spread the Yuki-love! Edit: And thinking about it now, I hope they get a mirrored Amazon release.

About time. I already got Fiction from another music store though, and what I really want are full OSTs for .hack and Noir etc.

If you're just wanting OSTs of the .hack series, a number of them are still available by picking up the LE releases of the old //SIGN and //Roots single volumes. You can still get those off Amazon (although vol. 1 is a bit pricey, even all these years later).

They've been released on CD in France by Wasabi but they are expensive so I keep putting it off. iTunes purchases are easier to sneak past my wallet's notice.

I was going to import the .hack// LEs as it happened, but gave up when I failed to obtain the first one.

This is really nice I can now legitly buy some of the music that I haven't legitly bought. Which isn't a whole lot because most of the stuff I do own is legit (redundancy much Laughing ) also might please some to know Magia is listed in Itunes as well as Seventh Heaven which goes with The Garden of Sinners films.

I don't use iTunes, but I do hope this is successful. I was happy to see Watanabe Kazuhiro's Gracias! collection on Amazon mp3 (though I'd already imported the CD), and it'd be great to see more domestic releases like these.

All of the Kara no Kyoukai themes are available in fact.

I've been maintaining a list of any anisongs I can find on the US iTunes store (although I haven't got around to transposing the most recent discoveries from the UK list yet).

iTunes is a bit late with this one. I've had mostly all her CDs for a few years now, thanks to Amazon.

But ... she has released lots of CDs these last years as well. And Fiction II is from 2011 as well.

Oh? I'll check it out. I've been so submerged in the deep aqua depths of Vocaloid I haven't kept up. Fiction I was mostly her release of BGM for Aquarion Age, .Hack //sign, and a few from Noir. I haven't seen any of the recent anime yet where she has composed the BGM for so not aware of what they might sound like, but knowing what her signature theme is of past compositions, I will guess it hasn't changed much. I have Both Noir CDs and the complete Petite Cossette CD, as well as Fiction I.

imho she has done some pretty good stuff recently, both with soundtracks and "normal" songs (plenty of pretty vocal pieces with FictionJunction and Kalafina). Of course, you can recognize her style most of the time and there are always people who find it repetitive. But if you like her older works, it's definitely worth a try.
