- Detonator Orgun OAV 1, ending theme
song: "Bandiria Ryokodan (Bandiria Travelers)" by Susumu Hirasawa
note: There is another version of this song on Hirasawa's solo album "Virtual Rabbit", but it lacks the booming chorals that make the Orgun ending theme so memorable.

- Koko wa Greenwood movie (OAV 5+6), final scene / end theme
song: "Kimi wo Suki de Yokatta" by Asami Hayashi
note: It's worth mentioning because it is NOT included on the regular Greenwood Vocal Collection (domestic reprint: JNA-1513-2). Instead it is included only on the extremely out-of-print Vocal Best Collection (VICL-40078).

- Video Girl Ai OST 6, as Youta climbs the glass staircase
song: "Frozen Flower" by Nav Katze
note: Available on JNA-1512-2. Its appearance in the show is very brief and almost drowned out by Christmas bells, but it still catches everyone's attention. Gut-wrenchingly beautiful.
