Capcom of Japan Announces “Rockman 10 Image Soundtrack”
The merchandise just keeps coming. We have the Rockman 10 Original Soundtrack coming the 23rd of this month, but many have also been hoping for an arranged album. The Rockman 10 Image Soundtrack appears to be just that, containing 21 arranged tracks from Rockman 10.
Along with all the people who worked on the Rockman 10 musical score, the album will also feature work by Masato Koda (Monster Hunter, Devil May Cry), Yoshino Aoki (Mega Man Battle Network, Mega Man Star Force), Saori Utsumu (Mega Man Xtreme), and Seiko Kobuchi (Mega Man: Maverick Hunter X).
There will also be two vocal arranged tracks. The ending theme, titled “LAST EXIT” as written and sung by Tohru Itoga. The other is a special track written by Hitoshi Ariga, and performed by DigitalSPicyDuck with Tohru Itoga. The album will also contain drama tracks with the voices of Dr. Light and Dr. Wily. And like the Rockman Zero albums, this album will feature the guitar work of Tsutomu Kurihara and Masaki Suzuki, and violin work by Yuko Tokushima.
The album releases on April 30th for ¥3,000 (roughly $33.62 US). It will come with a 28 page full color booklet.

Clever album cover, but it would’ve been cool to see Bass playing… well, bass (I know it’s not his JP name, but they could still make a sly nod to it).
Yeah Yoshino Aoki! Favorite Mega Man composer!
Izuki Koji ART!!!! Wow, I didn’t know he was still doing Rock Man stuff!
He certainly has improved quite a bit since the RM8 manga.
yay!!!
I originally didn’t care too much for the Mega Man 10 soundtrack but then it really started growing on me… like a lot.
That has to be an epic cover.
You see, through Bass, Capcom is showing the horrible effects of PCP! Also, there needs to be more art of Dr. Light dressed like that.
But Yoshino Aoki is a genius – can’t wait for this.
Kinda expected Bass/Forte to be on guitar given previous artwork I’ve seen, but whatever.
I just hope this album is much better than the MM9 arrange, which I thought destroyed the vast majority of tracks.
I just noticed that the artist of that cover is the Mangaka of the Megaman X mangas
@chuche: Noooo.. that would be Iwamoto (and Ariga did some X manga). This is Izuki Koji, who did a Rockman 8, and a Rockman and Forte manga. He never did any X manga.
Roll in a top
the lolicon in me says YES.
Bass looks terrifying.
Just looking at that cover makes me want to buy it. I’ve been going crazy over Mega Man merchandise recently, and I sure hope I don’t end up broke by the time I buy all the stuff I wanted.
Tohru Itoga?
Bought.
Hmm… I guess I’m the only one not too fond of the cover art. If I had more time I’d make my own, but I guess this’ll have to do for the old ipod touch for the time being.
Tabby:
Weird. the torso style somewhat did remidn me to Iwamoto style
