Decisive Battle
Anime: Neon Genesis Evangelion
OST: Evangelion Simphony 1 (1995)
[audio]

Neon Genesis Evangelion (新世紀エヴァンゲリオン, Shin Seiki Evangerion), commonly referred to as NGE, Eva, or Evangelion, is a commercially and critically successful, influential, and popular Japanese anime that began in October 1995; the series launched the Neon Genesis Evangelion franchise. It is commonly regarded as one of the greatest anime of all time. The anime was created by Gainax, written and directed by Hideaki Anno, and co-produced by TV Tokyo and Nihon Ad Systems (NAS).

Evangelion is an apocalyptic mecha action series which centers around the efforts by the paramilitary organization NERV to fight monstrous beings called Angels, primarily using giant mecha called Evangelions which are piloted by select teenagers, one of whom is the primary protagonist. It follows those teenagers and other NERV members until the defeat of the Angels and the eventual apocalyptic ending.

Events in the series refer to Judeo-Christian symbols from the book of Genesis and Biblical apocrypha among others. Later episodes shift focus to psychoanalysis of the main characters, who display various emotional problems and mental illnesses; the nature of existence and reality are questioned in a way that lets Evangelion be characterized as "postmodern fantasy". Hideaki Anno, the director of the anime series, had suffered from clinical depression prior to creating the series, and the psychological aspects of the show are based on the director's own experiences with overcoming this illness.

In the original Japanese, the word "Evangelion" is pronounced with a hard g per its Greek roots (see Translation notes on the title below).

You spell 'symphony' wrong in every video.

To all of you concerned about this being plagiarism, it's not. I just went and listened to 007 takes the lektor for comparison and, although very similar, the rhythms of the two ARE different, slightly. That being said, drum beats (and even rhythms in general) don't hold copyrights at all. It's the melody that gets copyrighted in music. And on that note (no pun intended LOL) these two pieces are very different. No plagiarism :)

[idklolnow]

lol this is my favoite one

[hotelmario510]

OH MY GOD THIS REALLY DOES SOUND JUST LIKE "007 TAKES THE LEKTOR".

But with that said, I don't give two flying shits if it's plaigiarism with an original piece overlaid on top. It's good music.

@iwrestledabearoncee who cares anyways u know wht it means...

[SuperSaiyanAl]

It isn't the entirety of "Takes the Lektor" that's used here, only the underlying drum/brass/strings beat. Shiro Sagisu took it, exorcised the 007 theme and simply overlayed his own work over it. That still counts as plagiarism, you know.

Composers shouldn't just steal all willy-nilly from other composers. I understand a musical nod here and there; if that were the case with Decisive Battle, it wouldn't bother me.

@SuperSaiyanAl @SuperSaiyanAl If it were the same, it could not be better. It is most definitely

NOT the same. Barry or whoever owns the rights to 007 may try to claim it, but they would fail in court, which would be a good reason why it hasn't been done and why GAINAX and Shirou are free to use Decisive Battle with impunity. And that is as it should be.

[SuperSaiyanAl]

And that makes it okay! :DDD

I know what a "Jimmy Hart" version is, and this isn't one. This isn't a vaguely similar substitute for a piece, this is music directly lifted from another composer. It doesn't matter if you think it's better; it's plagiarism and it's wrong.

[trilliwig]

@SuperSaiyanAl Go read the page on "The Jimmy Hart Version" at tvtropes.org. This kind of thing is not all that unusual. Plus, I believe Shiro Sagisu created something superior to John Barry's work with this piece.
