Madlax Soundtrack

Hitomi no Kakera was originally composed by FictionJunction Yuuka as a theme song for the anime Madlax. The song originally featured on the OST for the series before it was released as a single, which gained the band significant fame on the J-pop scene. Both Hitomi no Kakera and its B-side track nowhere were used throughout the anime, Hitomi no Kakera being opening theme for the series, and nowhere being used mainly during the fights and action scenes. Both songs feature on the series' OST as well as on FictionJunction Yuuka's album.
