KMC Award for Best Theme Music - Action/RPG
Stage Music, Battle Themes, Boss Themes, Character Themes apply...mostly. I personally like Ryu Hayabusa's Unofficial Theme (The Parasprinter) from No.2 (Dark Sword of Chaos). Sad, But True (E. Jill's Theme), as well as the Old Snake theme and Escape From The Fortress (Snake Eater) are also top pick for me.
Which theme should take home the top prize?
I'm a sucker for battle music. So:

Nah.
Monster Hunter as a series has always had an astounding soundtrack. Monster Hunter Tri in particular brought out a handful of great tracks, and very varied ones too.
Those are the ones that stood out most notably I'd say, at least amongst this particular MH game. Then there're a few other RPG tunes that always stuck to me:
Oh how could I forget?
And as for vocal themes:
