This is the original soundtrack to the rather...strange movie of the name. There's an MSX game as well, though I don't know if the movie is based off the game or if it's the other way around. Anyways: I had been tracking this album myself for a while now but laid my plans to rest once someone else had managed to rip it. I will be completely honest and admit that I haven't seen the movie yet, BUUUUT...since this is Pony Canyon we're talking about, I wouldn't be completely surprised if there was missing BGM from the movie that didn't make it onto the OST. Especially with a running total length of 33 min for the OST... It's even worse for the vinyl owners of the OST!! Track 7 on the CD version was omitted from the LP version from whatever reason, despite being BGM. Not sure what the reason behind that was. Music-wise? I liked it. Pretty good! Unfortunately the track with Sasaki on this album kinda fell flat imo but it's not the worst thing out there. Enjoy!!
