Crowning Music Anime Discussion
I would like to note that the original composer of Emiya was in fact Haga Keita aka KATE, who created much of the original music for Type-Moon. He was also the lyricist for many of the songs associated with Fate/Stay Night including disillusion and imitation - S_1

Shouldn't Joe Hisaishi have his own folder for his work on the Studio Ghibli films? I mean, the scores for Spirited Away, and Princess Mononoke alone have got to be some of the best scores out there.
