I think you have heard quite a lot about the anime Angel Beats on the news, forums and magazines. Since its famous for its spotlight songs by Girls Dead Monster, an all girl band which included Masami Iwasawa, Miyuki Irie, Shiori Sekine, Hisako and Yui. Though I don't particularly know the real vocalist of the characters but the songs are well composed. As for my favourite song, " Crow Song " and " Alchemy " are among the top I think. Well you can listen to it on the anime episode, though I have watched this anime last two years and think I can roughly remember crow song is on the first episode and alchemy is on the third episode where Iwasawa lead the singing in a concert to lure Kanade out. As for the story, its very interesting because the concept of heaven and hell doesn't exist here but only one afterlife world which is neither heaven nor hell. The main character, Yuzuru Otonashi died in his real world and transfered to a school in the afterlife and met Nakamura Yuri right at the begining. By joining a guild named SSS (i forgot the real name ==) leaded by Yuri and fight against angels who are originally from the god's right hand. Tachibana Kanade (my favourite character^w^), an innocent girl who is mistaken by SSS to be an angel fought against them and try to persuade them because she has no intention to fight them and just want to be friends with them, all the credit goes to Otonashi who found out her true identity after members of SSS picked on her exams and caused her to resign from her student council president's seat. I cried on that episode when she was alone after that and was stopped by SSS from buying her favourite "Mabou Tofu" (super spicy dish). Though later Kanade and Otonashi fell for each other in the end...Only Otonashi decided to stay behind as the president of student council while others include Kanade rebirth to the other life. Its a good story that was written by Maeda Jun, the author who wrote the story. Thank You JUN!
As for the opening and ending theme, there quite many insert songs but I just highlight some of them especially the opening " My Soul, Your Beats! " by Lisa and " the insert song " My most precious Treasure " by Girls Dead Monster feating Lisa. These are quite worthy song to listen as you will feel both sad and lonely. As for the ED, " Brave Song" by Lisa and vocal by Aoi Tada, quite a peaceful song but sometimes I cried when watching a sad ending matching with this song LOL~Well, see ya~!
