Uno degli aspetti che ha decretato il successo di Maison Ikkoku č stata la sua splendida colonna sonora appositamente composta, che non avrebbe minimamente sfigurato avesse accompagnato film. Come era logico aspettarsi quindi una moltitudine di CD sulla serie sono stati messi sul commercio. Questa lista li raccoglie tutti in pių per ogni compact sono riportate una serie di informazioni utili: dai titoli dei brani contenuti, al numero di tracce, alla loro durata, per finire con il prezzo ( rigorosamente in Yen !! ).

Maison Ikkoku Music Blend 2

Kitty H33K-20076 (1987.7.1), Y3100
        27 tracks: 5 vocal/22 instrumental, 49:41
        {Kawai Kenji composed the instrumentals.  Has the most
         famous vocals and BGM, with some wonderful "long BGM"
         tracks (1, 7, 13, 27...) that could not be heard wholly
         in TV series.  Remember the most beautiful "kiss"
         love scene between Godai and Kyoko, just when the snow
         starts falling, 3 episodes before the final one?  That
         BGM is from track 1, "bells ring in the dawn", a
         masterpiece... and the CD starts with it...  The CD is
         split into 4 symphony movements, Ikkoku-kan's seasons.}

Maison Ikkoku Koi suru Kimochi

	Kitty H30K-20088 (1987.9.25), Y3008
        15 tracks: 8 vocal/7 drama, 39:31
        {"A feeling of love".  All these songs are performed
         by Shimamoto Sumi, the "real" voice of Kyoko.  Some of
         them are Sumi-chan's versions of OP/ED themes (1, 13),
         others are insert songs, that may be heard for a -too?-
         short time in the TV series (5, 9) while others are brand
         new (3, 7, 11, 15).  The OP/ED themes' original musics
         have been changed a little, and now feelings are
         different, but very good, still in the TV style.  Between
         the songs, dialogues (SC) featuring Kyoko, Godai, Akemi,
         Yotsuya and Ichinose have been inserted. They have been
         created especially for this CD and cannot be found
         elsewhere.

         Best front sketch of Kyouko ever drawn !!!! The booklet
         is a single sheet (folded 4 times to fit the CD size)
         with slides of real actors/actresses and their anime
         "counterpart":
                
		Shimamoto Sumi (Otonashi Kyouko),
                Futamata Kazunari (Godai Yuusaku),
                Aoki Kazuyo (Ichinose Hanae),
                Mita Yuuko (Roppongi Akemi),
                Chiba Shigeru (Yotsuya).

         The center sketch features a very cute but angry (at who?)
         Kyouko. A good and enjoyable CD to fill your collection up.}

Maison Ikkoku Music Shake

        Kitty H00K-20162 (1989.12.21), Y3008
        56 tracks: 2 vocal/54 instrumental, 53:19
        {Music Composer, tracks 1 to 37: Sugiyama Takuo
         Music Composer, tracks 38 to 55: Kawai Kenji
         except the vocals.  Could be named "Music Sour Vol.2"
         [in fact, it is written BGM Vol.2 on the CD itself], since
         it's the PERFECT continuation of "Music Sour", with the same
         composers.  Many, many short/long musics and bridges here,
         and moreover you are given two more OP/ED songs!  The ONLY
         one which is NOT in the CDs is ED "Get Down" from Gilbert
         O'Sullivan-. Very enjoyable too.  With only these 2 CDs, you
         may own 80% of all Maison Ikkoku BGM.}

Maison Ikkoku Sound Theater 1 - episodes 1 / 2

	Kitty KTCD-3001 (1990.6.25), Y3000
        89 tracks, 71:22
        {#1 in a series of 48 CDs covering the entire TV series,
         2 episodes on each.

         Each booklet contains plentiful of screenshots from the
         2 episodes synchronized with CD's track numbers, plus
         various infos and REAL pictures of special guests,
         characters clip, cast, Music Break Time, animation
         staff, OP/ED themes, etc.

         The jacket itself is a cardboard box, with the booklet
         stuck on the inside left flap. All 48 jackets have a
         narrow sketch printed on their edge; once put
         side-by-side, they make a long nice picture featuring
         ALL the Maison Ikkoku characters. For the entire CD
         series, the narrator is Chiba Shigeru, Yotsuya's voice,
         whose craziness and sense of humour suit the narration
         and comments very well [however STRONG Japanese skill
         required to get it all].

         The CD starts with an OP narration -by Chiba Shigeru-
         then OP theme, 1st half of 1st episode, guest corner
         where C. S. interviews a famous dubbing actor/actress
         from the series, 2nd half of 1st episode, Music Break
         Time where a "DJ" announces and plays one -or more-
         music themes from the series, OP narration, "nandemo
         corner" where C. S. talks about various aspects of the
         TV series, 2nd half of the 2nd episode, ED theme. While
         the 2 episodes are played, C. S. acts as an off-voice
         narrator, explaining some "visual" scenes and gags that
         could hardly be understood without his frenzied help.}

        {Front sketch: sexy Kyouko wearing a red Chinese dress (if

Maison Ikkoku Party Album -- Chachamaru Karaoke Battle

        16 tracks
        {A well-produced CD with great liner notes including
         lyrics, sheet music, and a poster.

         The first half is drama.  Yotsuya follows Godai,
         who's buying something...  The characters end up at
         Chachamaru singing MI themes karaoke.  A "special
         guest" rattles Godai.  Excellent stereo imaging.

Maison Ikkoku Forever Remix

	Kitty KTCR-1166 (1992.7.25), Y2800
        10 tracks: 10 vocal, 46:35
        {10 "remix" versions of several famous OP/ED from the TV
         series, except track 3, never heard before.  The CD
         jacket contains many screen shots from TV series,
         rearranged, with all songs' words, composers' names
         etc.  The front shows Kyouko-san, her blue dress and
         hair flying in the wind (very cute, even if she's drawn
         late Ranma character designs).  The back side shows
         Kyouko-san's face in profile, with 8 altered versions.

         Like the Urusei Yatsura Best 10 Remix CD, some of the
         songs are outstanding (1, 8, 10), some pretty good (5,
         6, 9) but some others rather poor (2, 7).

         The jacket says in French and in English:
         "Ces joyeuses musiques sont destin\'ees \`a tous ceux
          qui aimeront pour toujours l'histoire de la Maison-ikkoku."
         "These happy musics are dedicated to all the people who
          will love the story of Maison-ikkoku forever."}
