Composer Yuki Hayashi comments:
Once again, there is lot of music, like we had turned a toy box upside down! I tried to make the second bunch more energetic and more grandiose. May the songs of their adventures also be the songs of the adventures of all who listen to them. As this is the last soundtrack release, it was an honor to get to do more arrangements of some wonderful songs this time as well!
