*** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=78A5MzzXgkg The One Who Bares Fangs At God], easilly one of the best examples of beyond EPIC Final Boss Music.
** "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7b_PH-VeYqQ Gathering Stars in the Night Sky]" is sappy, but instantly endearing. And speaking of sappy, who can forget "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k7D0U_RhH-I Small of Two Pieces]", the [[Narm Charm|wonderfully cheesy]] [[Power Ballad]] that closes out the game? Its unreleased sister piece, "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sRRvMPHQDl4 Stars of Tears]", is noteworthy as well, as is its in-game instrumental version, "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_kZZvU0gWtY Sentiment]".
* And then there is the Xenosaga Episode I soundtrack. The [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9_NKJNo7nx8 Battle Theme] is pure win.
** Let's include some examples, shall we? [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=izpN6hWBKIk The Resurrection] and [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tZ6ufAOSUhM Last Battle] are personal favorites.
*** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y6YBMmmeY1w Breaking Space Ship Pursuit]. A song so epic in this troper's eyes, it was simply too awesome for battle music, so they made it a random scene.
* Then came ''[[Chrono Cross]]''. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M-h-n43xOqg Scars Left By Time]. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OqWCjHtuwXQ Home World - Fields of Time]. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j5liLMyiBLU Chronopolis]. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Ncd9bDQaHY&fmt=18 Another World - On The Beach of Dreams]. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P_361uNAo_0 Chronomantique]. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hoF2rBOnsb4 Leaving the Body]. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XuwK6vn6lBA Dragon Rider]. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tu0dmrqzP-I&fmt=18 Magical Dreamers - Wind, Stars, and Waves]. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D7KsWgE7-oE Garden of the Gods]. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iv3DhSLPEVE Terra Tower - Dragon's Prayer]. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CkKMUrEOnwc Radical Dreamers - Unstolen Jewel]. Mere words are useless.
Line 44:
* And just in case anyone should have even the slightest doubt that Mitsuda's still got the touch, let me present: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S7YSI7W9RDA the main theme] of ''[[Sands of Destruction]]''. Yeah. He's still got it.
* Mitsuda is the longtime childhood friend of Yoshitaka Hirota (see below). And so, doing the friendly thing, he contributed a few tracks to the Shadow Hearts series. And those tracks happened to kick ass, nicely complementing Hirota's already-awesome work.[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AGWVzDhDHMc Astaroth], for example, is among Mitsuda's contributions.
* ''[[Super Smash Bros.]] Brawl''. "[[Kirby|Vs. Marx]]". That is all.
* Both Mitsuda AND Shimomura are composing the musics of the upcoming title Xenoblade: We already [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e1K83Lhzv3c know] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=itYM5xfwSo0 for sure] that the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LcpxLC1tm2A soundtrack] is going to be brilliant.
** Actually, Mitsuda only composed one song for the game: the ending theme [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P7PVAtOiThE Beyond the Sky]. All the other tracks are composed by the other composers including Shimomura.
