Ok, aside from liking anime, manga, and meditative thoughts. I also like listening to music from video games and anime. Though I normally find more in the way of video games than I do in anime. Therefore I am going to list the composers, conductors, and all around creators of music from these two genres. Don't worry about the legendaries like Zelda and Mario, what great list would be complete without games as classic as them.
Note: All Asian names will be written in there natural form. "Family name" then "Main name". All non Asian names will be written in there natural form as well. "Main name" then "Family name".
