Most Emotional Music Collection - "Shiki" [屍鬼 - Best of Shiki]

A teenage girl is repeatedly run over by a tractor. A wife is tortured and experimented on by her husband. A forgotten, unloved boy is murdered by his sister. A reckless son is impaled by his father. A child is kidnapped and left in a closet. A girl shakes with dread. A gentle grandmother attacks her daughter. A helpless father loses his sanity. A mother buries her entire family. A nurse shrivels in the sun with a sweet teenage boy. The sweet teenage boy attacks his best friend. His best friend blows himself up. They only wanted to survive, but in the end they all died.

Death is terrible for anyone. Young or old, good or evil, it's all the same. Death is impartial. There is no especially terrible death. That's why death is so fearsome. Your deeds, your age, your personality, your wealth, your beauty... They are all meaningless in the face of death -Sunako

If vampires did really exist.. this anime would be the most realistic out of them all vampire animes. The tragedy, the drama, the pain... Its one of those animes I wish id hit my head and forget about so I can watch it again :/

I think this soundtrack is actually the gateway to another world.

"Is... Is it wrong.. to want to live?"

The last episodes really made me cry.

This anime is brilliant, you feel so attached to all the different characters (even the evil ones) which just makes the ending all the more devastating.

Ahh... I remember when I first watched Shiki.. So many emotions flourished inside! Fear, sadness, genuine love for the characters, anger.... Oh man, what a masterpiece! I consider it my favorite anime to date and I try my best to tell everyone I meet to watch it! SPREAD THE WORD, guys! This anime needs to be watched and loved by all!

If you tried watching "Shiki" and were turned off by the first episode - give it another shot, because it gets very deep. It's a fine story that picks up traction as it progresses, and what an ending!

shiki is so underrated. the anime is so good, it has a deep meaning and leaves you questioning about a lot of things. It was sometimes hard to watch because it is so tragic and it made me cry, but it's so worth it watching it. and not to forget, the soundtrack is just perfect, it always gives me goosebumps

This anime is so philosophical it has such deep meaning to it. It irritated me in the beginning as it was slow but when the story built up I started questioning my own thinking honestly made me question morality. Even now when I listen to the soundtrack I can track back to those emotions and no doubt i have tears in my eyes. This is one of the very few animes that have an outstanding soundtrack which will engross u more into the show and if you are a fan of instrumentals and anime osts believe me you will save these tracks in your heart even before your mp3! So if you are a kind of person who likes thinking and questioning and who likes mystery I would recommend this anime strongly. it is sadly not looked very well upon by the anime community but such shows rarely come.

This will forever be my most favorite anime. Absolutely beautiful, terrifying, and emotional. <3

What I loved about Shiki the most, was how well written it is. Anime fails badly at creating suspense, but not Shiki. The way the "disease" spreads and develops into a supernatural scenario is incredible. If you're not aware about the whole vampire thing being involved it can definitely keep you engaged in the immersive crescendo. Wish I could re watch it as the first time, and, omg the music guys. Listen to this.

6 years had passed but this show still hurts like hell. One of the best anime of all time. The music, the ambience, the story and the characters and their portrayal. And the desire to live and to not be alone in this world. I will never forget this show.

After 7 years of one anime being my favorite, this one not only beat it, but blew it out of the water. This anime was a masterpiece, pure and simple.

Watched Shiki some years ago and never noticed that the soundtrack is so good O: shame on me!

a lot of people misinterpret this anime. There's no side that's completely good.Both of them do what have to be done. 2 species struggling for survival. THAT'S THE TRUTH OF THIS WORLD. There is no such thing as absolute justice or absolute evil. The shiki did evil things to survive and in the end, got what they deserve. The humans fought back mercilessly for their survival, losing their homes in the process

こんなにも海外の人達が見てるのか。嬉しい限りです。
