Yeah, it appears that Yuki Kajiura is doing the composition for Xenosaga Episode II.

Is this the project you were talking about, Tsukasa?

I doubt Tsukasa knows. However, I would not doubt that Xenosaga is a possibility.

I do not know, Rubedo. ^___^ We'll find out come July 21st. But I would be horribly surprised if Square-Enix got someone other than Yasunori Mitsuda to do the OST for Xenosaga ep 2, as he did ep 1. He's still in good standing with the team, right? o.o;

Square Enix? Last I checked, Xenosaga's done by Monolith Soft and published by Namco...

Nevertheless, that is Mitsuda's realm...

Err... That's right. n.n;; (take in mind, I don't keep up with the Xeno games. x.x;;)

But anyway Pipian's right. Mitsuda was the composer for the first game, I don't see why they'd replace him for Kajiura. Sorry. o.o;

Surprising, but not entirely unexpected. After all, I did say that it was not to be completely impossible. Just unlikely. Wonder why they dumped Mitsuda...

Dont know why either..so far,since I just got the game last week,I liked the battle music to it,I thought the music was good.

I think when they where making .hack//SIGN, some of the people who worked on the FMV's in Xenosaga were working on .hack aswell. They knew Mitsuda wasnt going to stick around much longer (on his website he says he going to stop working on video game music and start writing songs for musicians), so they gave he job to Kajiura.

Thanks Ookami ^^;

Monolith soft also has plans for the Xenosaga series to be released as an anime too. So I'm kinda curious if Kajiura will do the composition for it as well.

That would be really cool if she did!
