A lot of these songs are supposedly "image" songs but they were used within some episodes of the TV show as insert songs, so I guess that might be debatable. Just like the BGM video I put out a while back... I would've preferred separating these albums into their own videos, but they've been put together into a single video instead due to Nippon Columbia & the RIAJ getting really anal about people uploading music from their catalog onto YT nowadays. Surprisingly... I don't have much to say here. Don't get the wrong idea—this isn't to say I dislike any of the vocal songs! I actually did enjoy listening through all of the vocal songs but I don't really feel that *strongly* about them compared to the BGM. I do have some thoughts though: Hit Song Collection II has some REALLY good tracks—in particular, I especially liked "We're Friends", "Rui・Rui・Rui", and "Lonely Stray Cat". But if I really had to choose one between all these 3 albums, it'd be Hit Song Collection I just for the fact alone that it had more tracks on it that I liked. I guess having Kenji Yamamoto arrange most of the tracks for you does wonders 🤭 Song & Music Collection '92 actually had a lot of banger tracks on it (ESPECIALLY the TV show's 2nd ED theme and the ED for the 3rd movie), but I didn't place it high up on the scale due to the lack of vocal tracks on it. Anyways, enjoy!
