Shikigami no Shiro II PAL 'Version' OST?

Post by cj iwakura »

Just about the weirdest Shikigami question I've ever gotten. Just when you thought you knew the whole series...

Hey, do you know where I can find a rip of the PAL Castle Shikigami II OST? Can't find it anywhere.

There's music in this that I can't find anywhere else? All my searches link to the original version..
He's not wrong. Where the hell did they get this crap? Heh, it's garbage.

But I am curious, so maybe someone here knows.

As if removing the story wasn't bad enough, PAL didn't deserve the proper OST either!

That's tragic but also interesting. Why go to the extra trouble/expense? Seems like you'd do so only to improve marketability in Europe, but why think that this alternative soundtrack would be a better fit? Just really strange.

Is 50Hz only too. It looks a lot better and crisper than Mobile Light Force 2 in PAL but that isn't saying much.

That PAL Shiki 2 is crap, 50hz, story screens removed, all (I think) voices removed, crappy home made title screen cobbled together by Play It, and incorrect music. Boss and mid boss music is correct though iirc.

Maaan, between that, the MLF nonsense and the canceled release of Episode 3's Wii port, the series really has been cursed in the PAL region.
That said, this horribly out-of-place music really got me laughing. It is soooo bad. :lol:
