Future Diary, Music Theory, and Complimentary Aesthetics

Are you ready for some music theory, y’all?!

Yuki

Yukiteru lives in a modern Western-style “Cape Cod” home and is often seen drinking from cans of soda, eating hamburger steak, and basically living a modern, Western-influenced lifestyle.

In spite of this, his musical themes almost exclusively feature old, traditional Japanese-style instruments that date back to the era of Imperial court music circa 500 years ago. There is a sporadic electronic tone in the background of one theme. The very end of these themes, in the last 10 seconds, will sometimes incorporate modern electronic instruments.

Yuno

Yuno lives in a traditional Japanese-style home and is typically seen eating seared fish, drinking tea/water from wood cups or ladles, and basically living an older, Japanese-centric lifestyle.

In spite of this, her themes do not include any instruments that are more than 100 years old, and all of the instruments used in her themes were made in Europe or America. Music box bells, electric guitars, electronic piano, etc. She’s exclusively Western-style in her score, except for during the last five to eight seconds of a couple of the themes, which suddenly play bells and gongs first created in 1500s-1600s ancient Japan.

As you might imagine, when there are score pieces about both of them and their relationship? They consistently use instruments from all throughout history. Ancient Japan, 18th century orchestra, and modern rock all combine. up through to the last 10 years of new styles, including some dubstep electronic tricks.

Conclusion

It’s amazing to me how Tatsuya Kato‘s score manages to illustrate how disconnected both of them are from their daily lives by inverting their musical styles into the opposite of their daily existence, while simultaneously making it clear how they mirror each other in every way before combining what they represent into something beautiful.

Kato’s scores are sometimes cited as being among the best in anime from the past 10 years, and it‘s easy to see how deeply he mulled over the story and characters of what he was working on.
