It's a shame that Gasaraki is becoming something of a forgotten series really. I'll be doing some more OST reviews in the coming weeks since I have a nice healthy 'to buy' list and plenty of newish albums to choose from. Most of my CDs are in removal boxes right now though, worse luck. @Washi: cheers. ^_^ I agree that the series was not without its flaws but the soundtrack captures the feel and atmosphere of the show so well - Message #9 is the perfect opener and I still enjoy it after all this time.

While I found that Gasaraki was lacking in many ways (particularly the way that the relatively sloppy fantasy-mecha story encroached on the otherwise engrossing political intruige), I completely agree with you on its soundtrack. Message #9 has been amonmg my favourite anime OPs since I first heard it, and, like you, I think it was a factor that contributed largely to me watching the show. In fact, because I have somewhat of a fetish for innovative sounds and musical styles, it's probably my absoloute favourite OP. I'll be looking out for your thoughts on other anime soundtracks.
