"How can anyone not love the music to X! Everything is worth it and it's perfect for any mood! Give this to anyone who loves X, or just loves the background music to movies and shows. Or get it for yourself, there's nothing wrong with that ^.~"
This cd is great

"I love this cd and I play it often. The music is simply amazing.
The first soundtrack had mostly "fighting" songs, whereas this one has calmer songs and more songs with lyrics. This cd also has songs that were not played during the anime series, such as 'Strength' and 'Crystal' (which is sung by Kamui's Japanese voice actor). Also, 'Suite (Dragons of Earth)' is on this cd and I like it more than 'Suite (Dragons of Heaven)' on the first soundtrack. With 'Suite (Dragons of Heaven)', I think it was a generalization of the characters, and did not play a melody for every seperate one of them. 'Suite (Dragons of Earth)' has a melody for each of the Seven Angels in an 8 minute song.
'Last Battle' is a great song which was only played once in the series, and not even in it's entirety. I find that very unfortunate, but it's another reason to buy this.
Last but not least, 'Crystal', sung by Kenichi Suzumura, is the final song on this soundtrack. I really wish that this song was played at the end of the series, however, since it ends with a sense of finality and is sung from Kamui's point of view. Oh, well. ^_^
What don't I like about this cd?
I don't really think they needed to put eX Dream and Secret Sorrow's TV edits on this cd. Not a big deal, though.
This is my favorite anime soundtrack that I own, and hopefully it will be yours, too!"
Very Good

"VERY nice, al lot better than OST1. The highlights of the CD are Kumikyouko Chi no Ryu, Crystal, and Requiem. A good CD if you are a fan of the show, but I would even reccomend it to people who haven't seen the show."
