Kill la Kill and Japanese classical pop music references: a masterpost

(gif created by @sailormoon-cola) I don’t know if someone else here on Tumblr has already done it, but this morning I’ve finally started to search and listen to the Japanese classical pop songs referenced by every episode (for those who didn’t know it, an idea of the show’s head writer Kazuki Nakashima). Click on the highlighted English translation to listen to the song! I’ve already fallen in love with many of them.

PS: if you know the titles of the other Drama CDs or, more generally, other trivia on this matter, please, DM me and let me know! I’d love to make this post go more in-depth (:
