the OST is out. I got instant deja vu when I listen to the track 6 "Sensai Toiu Na no Tatakai he", clearly resembles his previous works in Shakugan no Shana.. flame hazeeeeeeeeeee!

my favorite track is Toten Sie sie, nice battle theme track

Chiisaku mo Nashi he ta Koto is a nice track, it gives the fresh breeze of air feeling, fly away~

"Kae Rarenu Mama Wasure Rarenu Mama" is a sad epic track but kinda generic sad-ish sounding and nothing memorize

There are many inspiring songs in PS Ost (perhaps recalling the soldier spirit mood of the series). I let them roll while "reading" the Pumpkin Scissors manga:
my favs are:
Of course: Aoki Flamme (I never cut the opening secuence while watching the anime episodes... ever!)
Toten Sie sie (absolutely! agree with you, Mgz)
Sensai To lu Na No Tatakai He
Kaze wo oi kane ne
GO S.S III


Of course there are also many lovely and peaceful tracks. Kind of remind me old time RPG tracks... Final Fantasy III for instance and new ones like Suikoden IV (the sea breeze and calm lands, like Sofa no Kyuujitsu) and Suikoden V.
The waltz (shall we...?)is nice too...

Regarding the ending song of the anime: Can´t manage myself to like it...no matter how hard I try. But I liked the alternative one...

Aoki hikari o tomosu sore wa hakai, nemuri, sosei…Inochi o mushisareta senshi (geshupensuto ieegaa)
Kizutsuki samayoi fumidashita tashika na shinobiai… Geshupensuto ieegaa

Akaku moeru kodou no hagane, itami, soshite yureru… Geshupensuto ieegaa
Ikana gaihi o mo kirisaki tachiwaru tame tachiagare! …Geshupensuto ieegaa

Hokori o mochi yaiba furiage watashi yo Anata yo Sono te yo Kono te wa yasuragi o shitte iru!

NON Sore de ii

Semete kimi no hohoemi mamoru yo…

Wareware to yoberu mirai e tsuzuku sekai michibikareru… Koukinaru honoo (nooburu furanmu)
Fukouhei na yo no naka dare ga yuruseru mono ka! Sore koso ga… Nooburu furanmu

Aa Sono hitomi wa

Translated Eng Lyrics : D

Spoiler:

You ignite the blue light; that is destruction, slumber, resurrection… A soldier whose life was ignored (gespenst jäger)
You got hurt, wandered, and stepped forward to the definite clandestine meeting… A soldier whose life was ignored

Ah, on your back
There are scars of your wings having been plucked
Let’s believe in something small
And grasp it again!

The steel of heartbeats that burns red, pain, and you’ll waver… A soldier whose life was ignored
In order to slash and tear up all kinds of husks, stand up! …A soldier whose life was ignored

Have pride and raise your sword overhead; me, you, those hands, these hands know peace!

NON That’s okay
NON Hope and such
I’ll protect your smile at least…

We’ll be guided by the world continuing into the future that is able to call upon us… Noble flame (nobel flamme)
In the unfair world, who can we forgive?! That indeed is… Noble flame

Ah, what do your eyes capture
And where do they aim toward…?
Let’s believe in the small back
And advance again!

The weight of one stolen grain; you can’t throw away your weapons… Noble flame
For what do you stake your life on and furthermore, protect? …Noble flame

While this flower that bravely bloomed isn’t able to notice sadness, it’ll keep away from peace…

NON And now
NON Due to love
I’ll protect the loneliness covered in wounds…

“Even if I want to depend on you, even if I want to be embraced, I’ll entrust you with my life…”

Yearning for peace
NON That’s okay
NON Hope and such
I’ll protect your smile at least…
NON That’s okay
NON Hope and such
I’ll protect your smile at least…
