How do you feel about Kai's soundtrack?

There was originally composed music for the Saiyajin saga. More then a few for sure.

As I said, the music sounded very much like it did in Dragon Ball and also got really repetitive for me.

It might have something to do with the fact that actual music from Dragonball (not Z) was used as far as the Freeza arc.

Yeah I think that's it, since I haven't seen the Android or Cell sagas in Japanese.

That would be a big part of it, then! The entire Artificial Human arc gets some new tunes (but not a completely new set) and the Boo arc, as you probably know, has a mostly new set of tunes (if not completely new).

Because of that trend, I never really expected to be hearing a lot of new music when it switched from the Saiyan arc to the Freeza arc in Kai and I don't see why anyone else would, either. As much as everyone complains, it's only around 54 episodes. Dragonball Z was using the same music for about 100-ish episodes, then they put in a few new tracks for the next 100-ish, and then finally gave it an overhaul for the final 90-ish episodes and I don't really hear much in the way of complaints.

I personally love the kai soundtrack. Its fresh and in my opinion is a great sound for the "refreshed" version of Z and of course more importantly ends the whole Falcouner vs Original Japanese music debate.

I love Kai's soundtrack.

Slightly moreso than the original.

Z's music was just as repetitive in my book.

During the Android saga, they use a completely new set of music almost, and then proceed to use certain new pieces a bajillion times.

So today I was actually wondering about Yamamoto's score. Since he's been around the block composing music for the various video games, I'm surprised that at least a few of those pieces wouldn't be redone and used for Kai. After all, a lot of Kikuchi's score premiered in various DB movies, so why not bolster his Kai score with some of his familiar pieces? Granted, this is just speculation on my part. I haven't played too many of the games, and, of the ones I have, I can't remember any music from it, but it did just hit me today and seemed like a no-brainer.
