8* ''VideoGame/SoulNomadAndTheWorldEaters'' pretty much has an Awesome ''Soundtrack''.
9** Four songs that stand out particularly are [[https://youtu.be/iJ_rnnIRgr4 "The Last Supper"]], [[https://youtu.be/wkIGeP68ORA "Crying for the Dark Sky"]], [[https://youtu.be/2NAkEP68agk "Crash Landing"]], and [[https://youtu.be/NGXJ6LfGkmM "Rock'n Rocks"]]. The fact that these songs accompany some of the game's most epic moments (being the themes of the titular World Eaters, plus Gig's ThemeMusicPowerUp) merely adds to their awesomeness.
10** The haunting [[https://youtu.be/k7HahJXM8eQ Reqiuem Of Gemini]] and Gig's [[https://youtu.be/d_1tZHHCWWg other]] [[https://youtu.be/_u_uqmzdSRQ two]] themes.
11** Just [[http://downloads.khinsider.com/game-soundtracks/album/soul-nomad-the-world-eaters-original-soundtrack download the whole thing]]. Every track kicks ass.
12** [[https://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=5C763DED1527E161 Soul Nomad arranged soundtrack]].
13** [[https://youtu.be/TKsWTPSlBCE "Speed Queen"]] is awesome enough to be recycled in ''Disgaea 5'' as the Item World boss theme ''completely unchanged''!
14* ''VideoGame/LaPucelleTactics'':
15** [[https://youtu.be/8VnntX9oP_0 A Martyr's March]] usually plays during BigDamnHeroes moments and the boss battles that follow them.
16** [[https://youtu.be/EEgS9_Gj_6w Solitaire]] manages to turn any scene into a TearJerker.
17%%** [[https://youtu.be/RZHqvOv3zxo Maiden of Light]]", the intro. See also the [[https://youtu.be/d1m8Yi9qu_o Extended Arranged Version]].
18%%** The final boss theme, [[https://youtu.be/hJjKEpJbMZE God Bless Prier!]], which also plays in the Dark Shrine when you prepare to battle ''Demon Lord Baal''.
19%%** [[https://youtu.be/KLEReEjN6IA Great Wilder,]] the Dark World theme, also shows up in Disgaea and Makai Kingdom.
20%%** The UpdatedRerelease, ''La Pucelle: Ragnarok'', gives us [[https://youtu.be/6jwEHnjV61w Black Mass]] as the new FinalBoss theme for the Overlord Priere Story's Good Ending route, with vocals backing a rocking guitar track.
21%%The above examples are zero-context. Do not uncomment them without expanding them to explain WHY these tracks are awesome.
22* ''VideoGame/ExaPico'':
23** Sure, the music in the first ''[[VideoGame/ArTonelicoMelodyOfElemia Ar tonelico]]'' wasn't that great, but frankly, [[https://youtu.be/VaTVI89qFn0 "RE=NATION"]] and [[https://youtu.be/yMCalugLGNI "Chronicle Key"]] made up for it. The cutscene where these two songs are played are the moment that makes the game.
24** ''VideoGame/ArTonelicoIIMelodyOfMetafalica'' has generally better music:
25*** [[https://youtu.be/vJzi2p93igk "Replekia"]], a CMOA that you can bring out at your discretion, and [[https://youtu.be/kCm5eOyvrr0 "Implanta"]].
26*** [[https://youtu.be/PwsT7mY2W0Q "METHOD_METAFALICA/"]] is arguably the best out of the three Metafalica hymms. [[https://youtu.be/ytJ8jcBw5E0 "EXEC_HIBERNATION/"]] also gets a mention for being a creepily epic ten-minute ''counting song''.
27*** [[https://youtu.be/8Ec1UPLOG-Q "EXEC_DESPEDIA"]]. Creepy vocals sung by the resident [[DarkMagicalGirl dark magical girl]] Jacqli coupled with drum beats and guitar riffs and used as the BackgroundMusic for a battle with a giant robot? If that's not awesome, then nothing is.
28*** [[https://youtu.be/86b7Kjoe0_8 All]] [[https://youtu.be/QbWklryXp88 three]] [[https://youtu.be/CzgDPzl8RoY parts]] of "Sublimation". Now ''that's'' some awesome final boss music.
29*** [[https://youtu.be/0T0ZkAxFTGE "Rustling Throb"]].
30** ''VideoGame/ArTonelicoQogaKnellOfArCiel'':
31*** [[https://youtu.be/R4QIp2Yfj0s "EXEC_COSMOFLIPS/"]], which is one of the most epic video game songs ever written.
32*** Once you get past the [[NightmareFuel bowel-voidingly scary part]], [[https://youtu.be/LTDAVnFXWsg "XaaaCi"]] is ''beautiful...'' and, [[GaiasVengeance once you understand what it's about, heartbreaking.]]
33* ''Rhapsody - A Musical Adventure'' has several awe-inspiring tracks.
34** Special mention goes to [[https://youtu.be/8S8gkQVPKSU "Beauty Castle"]], the final dungeon theme.
35** [[https://youtu.be/EerJ5B1IQmQ Thank You]], easily one of the most beautiful ending themes out there and the best way to cap off Cornet's story. Nippon Ichi agrees as it was the song chosen to end their Makai Wars live concert with every performer coming on stage and singing along.
36* ''VideoGame/MakaiKingdom'':
37** [[https://youtu.be/Tb3oDT5Xfok "Fighting Spirit in The Heart"]], [[https://youtu.be/PybLBdMervY "Capture the Universe in This Hand"]], [[https://youtu.be/pqZDizzAYAg "Rushing Out of the Land of the Demons"]], [[https://youtu.be/azb0RX2QQhM "MAKAI Fusion"]], [[https://youtu.be/N2PNnQWDrD0 "Invasion of the Devil World"]], [[https://youtu.be/UonDDiiLr-4 "Salome the Traitor"]].
38** [[https://youtu.be/G7PGnvrJlLc "JOKER"]], [[https://youtu.be/5lnJwMAomPg "Alexander the God of Destruction"]], [[https://youtu.be/AsRvFpOrhKM "Madness of the Moment"]], [[https://youtu.be/gl4NyH02zh8 "Darkness Darkness"]], and Heartwarming Music: [[https://youtu.be/jgm4N9NMBr8 "Cold Rain"]]/
39* [[https://youtu.be/C_JvHu0w4LA "Rock Crystal"]], a great tune for any battle.
40* ''VideoGame/PhantomBrave'' has a very good soundtrack all around, but in particular, [[https://youtu.be/Qzsxe5EdOxM "Violent Emotion"]] and [[https://youtu.be/rocpld3gXH0 "R&R Junkiee"]] pretty much kick ass with a flourish, and [[https://youtu.be/8S29qfbLulk Friend]] is exceptionally beautiful. Try also [[https://youtu.be/H0vJXD_x3Mc "Strange Wind"]], [[https://youtu.be/HCm6Uvby3Q0 "Snowberry"]], and [[https://youtu.be/--LnS18xBMQ "Game Breaker"]].
41* ''VideoGame/ZettaiHeroProject'':
42** We have the [[https://youtu.be/dV1Oe5qUK3s "Unlosing Ranger's Theme Song"]], possibly the most HotBlooded song of any Nippon Ichi game. Its variants also deserve special mention, particularly the [[https://youtu.be/TchJGYxAXK4 Mecha version]] and the [[https://youtu.be/qUm_qSmMm6A Last Boss version]].
43** Speaking of Last Boss, we have the final boss music [[https://youtu.be/OqsDIOqmNK4 "The Last Last Battle"!]] Yes, it's your typical OminousLatinChanting final boss theme, but damn, it's too epic to not like.
44** [[https://youtu.be/DjJkYVtOxHY The Great Moment]], its boss theme according to one comment, is the [[SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic absolute greatest boss music in all of Nippon Ichi's game library]] along with Black Metallic Dragon from ''VideoGame/ClaDun X2''.
45* ''Videogame/ClaDun'': Oh my [[VideoGame/{{Disgaea 2|CursedMemories}} Zenon]] are they good.
46** [[https://youtu.be/R6BoWeWh2Fg Knight of a Foreign Country]]. The bagpipes and the rock really makes this soundtrack stand out from the other music in the soundtrack.
47** The Final Boss theme, "The Explosion", begins with a calm piano piece before eventually, just as the name implies, explodes into a massive and epic metal-jazz hybrid.
48** [[https://youtu.be/n1Fk_S873i8 Relinquished Despair]] is a very ominous and evil soundtrack. Granted, this song plays during the fight with the [[FinalBoss Death]] [[EmotionEater Glutton]]
49** [[SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic BLACK.]] [[HeavyMetal METALLIC.]] [[OurDragonsAreDifferent DRAGON.]] Title aside, it starts very mysterious and very evil sounding track. Then it starts building up, and it goes into a heavy metal carnage, fitting ONLY for an epic Disgaea final boss fight.
50* ''VideoGame/TheGuidedFateParadox'' pretty much rivals ''Soul Nomad'' for Awesome Soundtrack, making great use of OminousLatinChanting.
51** The main theme [[https://youtu.be/f4bA1qUdirA God and the Illusory Garden]]. It is also God Mode's ThemeMusicPowerUp, so when it plays, you know Renya is going to "guide fate to a revolution".
52** [[https://youtu.be/G-_XNR49XfY Fight!!!]] When this plays, it means Renya is gonna [[ScrewDestiny Screw Fate]] and show why he was chosen to become God.
53** [[https://youtu.be/1SZh6ep2_Mo ending note]], the final boss theme.
54* ''VideoGame/TheWitchAndTheHundredKnight'' has a haunting yet whimsical soundtrack befitting a game centered around the antics of witches.
55** [[https://youtu.be/VIH19UXCPeU Witch's Temptation]], the main menu theme. It's a dark fairytale-style theme that pretty much sums up the entire game in sound form.
56** [[https://youtu.be/2u7Axhk2FLs HIGH FIVE]], the normal boss theme. Unlike most other themes in the game this one uses an electric guitar to increase the intensity of the music.
57** [[https://youtu.be/F-v1-GOe188 One Hundred Roses]], the boss theme when fighting witches and other powerful opponents.
58** [[https://youtu.be/qo45j0gNnpY Dear Metallia,]] which plays when Metallia busts into Brockenturm Tower and during the fight against Lily and Purple Peel, making the moment all the more awesome.
59* The sequel, ''VideoGame/TheWitchAndTheHundredKnight2'', brings us a new boss battle theme, [[https://youtu.be/JiAtSZ10oiw Scramble Cross]], a high-energy track combining electric guitar and violin strings.
