What the community says

1428 duels later, Naruto Shippuden – Girei (Pain's Theme Song) is still #1 in the World Cup Best OST Anime/VideoGames ranking, with Skyrim Theme Song – Full (Dovahkiin Song) close behind.

Pain's Theme reaches 1437 ELO points and wins 80% of its duels, establishing a 48-point margin over the Skyrim Theme Song at rank 2. JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Golden Wind OST – Giorno's Theme completes the podium at 1370 ELO, followed by the iconic Opening/Title from Pokémon Red/Blue/Yellow and Ezio's Family from Assassin's Creed 2 in the top 5. The gap between ranks 1 and 2 stands as the sharpest divide in the ranking, suggesting that Pain's Theme has secured clear dominance among voters. At the bottom, Monster Hunter World: Iceborne OST – Fatalis closes the list at rank 128 with 1037 ELO, despite facing more duels than most contenders with 57 matchups. The spread reveals a community drawn to dramatic, character-driven themes over ambient game soundtracks.

This ranking draws from 1428 duels across 128 contenders, shaped by 3 players who have weighed anime scores against video game compositions. The vote was last updated on 12 October 2026. Cast your own duels on VAINKEURZ to shift the hierarchy: every matchup refines the ELO and brings overlooked soundtracks closer to recognition.

How this ranking is computed

Every duel won lifts a contender and every loss drops them, by an amount that depends on the opponent's strength: beating the leader is worth more than beating the last. It is an ELO, the same principle as in chess. Duels are not drawn at random — an adaptive entropy sort puts the least predictable match-ups first, which settles the ranking far faster than a full round robin. A worldwide ranking is only published past 30 completed plays. Known limit: a contender who has faced few opponents keeps an approximate score, and the bottom of the table moves more than the podium.
