The soundtrack, featuring live instrument recordings, paints the anime’s world with rich orchestration, contributing to its widespread acclaim. YAMAMOTO‘s musical prowess extends beyond ‘Sacrificial Princess and the King of Beasts,’ as he gained international recognition with an award for best composition at the Crunchyroll Anime Awards 2023, thanks to his work on ‘Attack on Titan: The Final Season Part 2.’ His contributions to ‘Dark Gathering’ and ‘Kaina of the Great Snow Sea’ further solidify his status as a rising star in the anime music scene, captivating audiences worldwide.
