It strikes me as odd that I know, and care, more about Skullgirls than about Symphony of the Night.
Still, this is probably good news, considering all the hype I've heard about SotN. If Yamane was involved with the one Castlevania game I've actually tried (Harmony of Dissonance on the GBA, I think?), then I expect a great soundtrack.

Symphony of the Night Composer Signs On For Skullgirls
" Always nice to see weeaboos attack a Japanese talent for trying something different. "Excellent music should go with excellent games. Granted, she had to work on some poor games back at Konami, but now that she has the freedom to approach anyone it's weird and disappointing that she's picked a team developing an ugly fighter that doesn't look fun, and that will most likely be forgotten by everyone days after its release.
Surprised to see such ire over such a small game. At any rate, good to hear that they've got some talent for the audio stuff. The game doesn't look too great to me (though, I've only watched the quick look), but it's good to see such a talented composer getting work and she chose to work with them so it's not like she's being forced to work on a crummy game. Whatever, good music makes everything better and cool for Reverge Labs (or Autumn Games) for scoring a good composer to work with them.
" Excellent music should go with excellent games. "While I'm not doubting the two should go together, it's hardly the reality. Since gaming's infancy there have been many great pieces of music – some by noted composers – that have been paired with games that aren't up to snuff.
I don't think a fighting game in which every character is a girl is going to appeal to a lot of people, especially the testosterone-fueled Street Fighter/Mortal Kombat crowd.
Man, for such a small game this is getting alot of hate.
For the record, I think it's very rude and disrespectful to say you're "disappointed" in someone for working on a certain project. If she took this job, which probably doesn't even pay as much as some other opportunities, it means she really went out of her way to choose this job because she wants to work on it. She isn't your personal entertainer, she's an artist. She went out of her way to work on this any way you look at it, so please respect her decision.
Not only does this game looks awesome, but it seems like it will play well. We get one more bonus...awesome music! Looking forward to this fighter.

Games with an eastern-influenced art style really need good games like this to come out. Too many people dismiss western artists that have eastern influences.

I agree. Kinda crazy how many people lay it on with their crazy attitudes and hate from a short gameplay video when they themselves haven't even played it
As for Yamane, I think it's great she picked a low-key team with a not very known game. Means she has faith in it and that is a huge morale booster for the team.
