The music does however and it brings out the unique quirks of each character and the bizarre moments that crop up. @roy

And I thought I was the only one who liked this soundtrack from a fairly popular title. This album does not leave you short on groove and melody, yet it fits nicely in the slice-of-life theme. Rather than compare it with Hidamari's and Sketchbook's OST, it's better to see this one as a whole unique musical experience. Oh yes!

But it's all good though. I'd be annoyed if people agreed with me all the time :p I think you said that you're not a huge fan of slice of life-style tracks, and GA's OST is filled with it. Might be best to look elsewhere. @Reltair

But yeah, her calming vibe is what really endears her to me and you can hear a slight dab of eccentricity lurking underneath. @Yi All good since I might be alone in liking this optimistic swing-y jazzy flavor that the soundtrack loads up upon. The samples are fairly representative of the music, so this might be one you'll just pass up on. @Taka I really liked that jazz segment in the middle of Noda's track and would probably have put it in as a sample if I didn't think it was overkill. But yeah, despite that heavy accent, it jumps around quite nicely. I guess my whole "blooming with life" might be a bit off from your interpretation of the musical context, but we do know that the increase tempo does signal some activity and it's a pleasant experience all around. @Mia

I think it fits her well. Though I think Tomokane's "Funky Strawberry" is my favorite of the the "color themes". I like how Horie yui breaks character for her ED while the others all stay in character. "So many minds" was definitely one of my favorite tracks. I love how it turns into a waltz. If the first part of the song sounded like the vastness of space then the 2nd half made me think the planets started dancing. I like the less jazzy atmospheric pieces best. "Tale of Colors" with it's meandering harpsichord. "Rainbow Chaser" with some lovely violin...puts me in mind of when Kisaragi was drawing her cats. A lovely daydream piece. And others. Most of the latter half of disc 2 because it is so eclectic. This isn’t my favorite type of music I’ll admit but I couldn’t help not love Noda’s being a Noda fanboy. I think it fits her well.

An eccentric character but i enjoy her character themes the best as well, probably from the calming vibes exhuming from her version of the ending song.
