If this general is still active, then I’m not sure this one has been posted before, but he also ripped one of Kenji Kawai’s themes.

Super Butōden 3 OST 4 - The True Battle Begins!

Kei17 already posted this one in the thread. I disagree with their take however, I think this one is more plagiarism than inspiration.

As a general note, it’s actually far easier to spot flaws in an already finished track and correct them, 2nd easiest thing next to transposing if one has a modicum of talent in music. Not so much when actually making the track. So Yamamoto “making the tracks better” isn’t all that impressive in the end.

Oh and don't know if this has been mentioned but the guy even ripped off Shunsuke Kikuchi. Of all people, the original composer for DB is who he rips off. Lol

Not intending for this to be a double post, but I couldn't find it anywhere in this thread, so:

Raging Blast 2 - Soldier's Sorrow

Stratovarius - A Million Light Years Away

And another:

Avenged Sevenfold - Chapter Four

Raging Blast 2 - Gallant
