* TickTockTune: "[=ABYSSWaltz=]" from ''Anime/ReCreators'' features a prominent ticking clock throughout most of the song. Combined with the slow droning music and ethereal-sounding lyrics, any listener who doesn't know the context when it plays from the anime could easily envision imagery of a white void where [[TimeStandsStill time ceases to exist]].

* SurprisinglyGoodEnglish:
** Several songs have perfect English grammar, like "DOA" for ''Manga/AttackOnTitan'', performed by Aimee Blackshleger (an American singer living in Japan), who also sung for ''Anime/GuiltyCrown'', ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyXIII2'', ''Anime/PantyAndStockingWithGarterbelt'', ''Anime/KillLaKill'' and ''Anime/DevilMayCryTheAnimatedSeries''. David Whitaker, a rapper from Atlanta, Georgia who moved to Japan in 2005, has also provided music for ''Manga/BlueExorcist'', ''Anime/KillLaKill'', ''Anime/GuiltyCrown,'' and ''VideoGame/XenobladeChroniclesX.''
** He also has a good number of the Japanese singers he works with sing English & German songs. Depending on which singer he collaborates with, the pronunciation can be anywhere from passable to total gibberish. mpi's thick Japanese accent makes it difficult to understand what he's saying, but it works out pretty well when he sings with another artist on the track.

* StrictlyFormula: A very common arguement by detractors is that Sawano's soundtracks are rather similar in terms of what they offer for each genre: for example, his mecha soundtracks (''Gundam'', ''Aldnoah.Zero'', ''Guilty Crown'') all have a characteristic "modern warfare" sound to them not unlike that of Music/HansZimmer.
