Yes, except the BGM for the OP, the ED, and the recap.

Does anyone have video footage of this BGM replacement from Yamamoto to Kikuchi?

No. I found a person who had it, but he became unable to show us any samples due to the bloody earthquakes. Anyway, now the next episode is to be brodcast on Fuji TV a few days later, so all we have to do is just wait.

Episode 95 aired in Kumamoto Prefecture today and people there said it had the Kikuchi score.

Anyone, please tell me if the exact same piece of music from the Z music is in the exact same place in the scenes of Kai that were in Z.

According to 2ch, these are the pieces they used in episode 95:

Goku says goodbye to everyone and teleports with Cell - M1623
Krillin comforts grieving Gohan - M1023
Trunks gets killed and Perfect Cell appears - M1109
Vegeta is shocked - M1120B

Just as I thought, they're using the already-released BGMs only so far.

Actually, every one of those pieces seem like they would fit in those scenes.

They used a piece from the DBZ movie 9 score, which is some of Kikuchi's best work.

But he's also a fighter, through and through [...] he fight until he has, in no uncertain terms, beaten his enemy on terms they can both acknowledge. He doesn't want to kill anyone, or even prove that he can win... he just wants to know he can. He's an ineffably charming bastard who's manly leanings were really incendental, and yes, the fact that he was voiced by a squeaky woman made the combination perhaps all the more charming.

So these peices with the scenes in Kai are the same as in the original scenes in Z?

Doesn't seem like it, assuming that M1120-B plays here in Kai.

I really doubt they'll reuse the Faulconer, Menza, or Johnson scores respectively from the remastered bricks of DBZ/DBGT.

I'm not sure if anybody ever thought that. It looked more like people were wondering if FUNi was going to go back and re-release Kai with the original Z score.

Right now, Toonzai is using the Kikuchi score. Oh lord, I'm going to have to get Funi's original Z Kai releases now. I hate this score.

Honestly, I like the idea of the Kikuchi Score being featured on a American Broadcast.
"Perfect" is the enemy of the good. True for Cell and true for real life.
Don't forget to slow down and enjoy yourself.
