I would have to prefer the GDW soundtracks, especially the intro played slowly, which they use in some dramatic scenes.

I like the GNG soundtrack as a whole better, but my favorite tracks are Kokoro no Kiba (GNG) and Way of Soldiers, Way of the Monster (GDW)

"Hoero Gin" is like the best J-rock song ever, but all the GNG songs are super powerful

I love the GNG soundtrack :bon2:, I find it to be very awesome, it's one of the major reasons why the GNG anime is my favorite one!

As for specific tracks I like from it, I absolutely love the opening, it's pretty catchy and a great way to start every episode, it's also the first Ginga song I heard as my first exposure to the Ginga series (on 2015, when I still wasn't that much of a fan. But still, the memories!!) was watching the GNG anime, so I guess there's also sort of a nostalgia factor here. The opening song alone makes it worth it rewatching GNG even if I don't usually rewatch things! Run and run, run and run, kaze ni nari hashiree!! :gin: :john: :akame: :ben: :kisaragi: :moss: :cross: :bill: :akakabuto:

Of course John's theme ("Appearance of Rival John 2") is also a favorite of mine :john:. It certainly has a John feel to it. Like it's a song depicting somebody skilled and not afraid to challenge others 😎, but it has a light pitch and cheery tune to it, it makes it clear that the character in question is not one of the villains. I like listening to it while working on things and while playing games that have no background music!

There's also the song "In the Trap" among my favorites. Such a dark and eerie sound to it! :P4:

There might be other GNG songs that I love and I forgot to mention, guess it's time for a GNG rewatch! Awesome opening, here I go! :EXCITE:

I really like all of the vocal soundtracks, and I have to agree with WolfKing with 'Gin and Daisuke.' But one of my top favorites would be 'Across the Sea.' I like the mystery and adventure that it gives off, and it works perfectly for introducing the next stage of the journey. It's got a lot of feeling to it, and I like it. Overall, the whole GNG soundtrack might be very dated, but they've got a lot of catchy themes in there that I often find myself humming after I've listened to the tracks for drawing. I also like the end parts to 'Mystery 2.' It's hard to describe why I like a song like that, sometimes I just like parts of songs for the way they sound. This one in particular feels like a memory.

I really liked the GDW soundtrack too, but now that I know even that's ripped off several other series, it's hard not to think about that when I hear the songs. But out of the whole list, I like Smith's theme the best.

Dubbed versions of the openings and endings are really cool to listen too as well. I like the Swedish versions of GNG and GDW, and there's a Spanish version of GDW's theme that I like to come back to sometimes.

I always loved Kokoro no Kiba. The GNG soundtrack overall is probably my favorite but I do like the GDW Tsukiakari and intro theme too.

Main theme of course, but also the common battle theme, which I believe is titled "Defeat Akakabuto" and is listed as the 13th (B) track here on this playlist:

https://soundcloud.com/stellannord/sets ... collection

Honorable mention goes to the track which plays when the pack is returning to meet up with Riki, it's a kind of uplifting and pump-up track. In the aforementioned playlist it's titled the same, but "13c" instead.
"Exceed the you from yesterday."

If we don't count the main theme of GNG or GDW I'd say my favourite is Call of the Wild.
