7 | Kensuke Ushio's score has been well-received, and while the fans are split whether ''DEVILMAN crybaby'' is a good adaptation or not, they unanimously agree that it has a ''killer'' soundtrack. |
8 | ---- |
9 | * The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BLXq9D0RuGw remix of "Devilman No Uta"]], the Japanese opening of the original anime series, does a splendid job capturing the tone of this DarkerAndEdgier adaptation while remaining campy in its own right and is insanely catchy to boot. |
10 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1j8ugNrsd5s "MAN HUMAN"]], the opening to the show. It's foreboding, catchy, and sounds like something from a nightclub; giving you a very good idea of what you're about to watch. |
11 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A0ajIeNqHVI "D.V.M.N."]], a powerful orchestral theme which plays during a lot of important scenes in the anime (e.g. Akira's transformation to Devilman and [[spoiler: his battle with Ryo/Satan in the climax]]). It also plays during the credits in some of the episodes. |
12 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1hAJBDZe21w "Crybaby"]], which plays in the last few minutes of Episodes 9 and 10. It begins as a LonelyPianoPiece, before gradually adding in string instruments, swelling towards its [[TearJerker gut-wrenching conclusion]]. True to its title, you yourself might be in tears once you listen to this. After all, Ushio also worked on the soundtrack of ''Manga/ASilentVoice''. |
13 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8J6MwUpSU3M "Judgment"]], which plays in some of the trailers, credits, and when [[spoiler: Sirene merges with Kaim]]. Before the series even aired, this track (besides "D.V.M.N.") already made it clear that this adaptation of ''Devilman'' is far grittier than the others. |
14 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MCE3e1-jNHw "Buddy, Ryo"]], an electrifying theme that perfectly embodies the dark but stylish feel of the series, and is a good example on why ''Crybaby'' tends to be likened to ''VideoGame/HotlineMiami''. |
15 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D1_jZkUn22A "From Here to Eternity"]], which plays [[spoiler: during the baton pass scene and shortly before Miki and Akira's deaths]], induces the feeling of both the joy and pain of nostalgia. |
16 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_SdfTKgLsjI "School Life"]], which plays in the earlier episodes, feels like a wonderful combination that would definitely be made from the soundtracks of ''Manga/ASilentVoice'' and ''VideoGame/Persona3''. |
17 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qJFENfgHk14 "Behind the Scene"]], much like its name, definitely gives the impression of an investigation, all the while making the listener feel a unique kind of tension, especially with the chanting in the background. By extension, there's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XH3gmOYcUsU "Smells Blood"]], its more... "upbeat" counterpart, which just oozes with ominous foreboding, but it's blood-pumping enough to keep you excited still. |
18 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bLP5HAPsHpc "His Heart"]], a solemn and wistful piece that plays when Akira [[spoiler: is forced to kill his mother to free her from a FateWorseThanDeath]]. |
19 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zkoiRGoxE20 "Night Hawk"]], Silene's {{Leitmotif}}, is rife with bass lines and ominous chanting to the point that it gives you tension. |
20 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OCJfDZEsCec "Miki the Witch"]] starts on a light note but gradually becomes more intense and intentionally dissonant at the same time. |
21 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nXsLeLON5sA "Cheesy Drop"]] sounds like something you would hear in bars, and is a beat you can't help tapping your feet or bopping your head to. |
