I've not looked at my old 5x5 grid itt in any kind of detail to see if it's actually accurate or not but I wouldn't be surprised if I were to look at it and call it something along the lines of "demonstrably wrong," so I've decided to do something a bit different. Instead of one big grid I've done a few 3x3 grids for different "categories" of music bc I find it kinda unfair to directly compare certain types of things for one reason or another and because it makes it easier to streamline my thoughts.
I've included honourable mentions under any where there was an entry that was either in contention or was otherwise just short of what's needed for grid placement, and the albums on each grid aren't in any particular order. Also there are ahandful number of individual songs that aren't on the listed albums which I wanna bring up too but they don't really fit onto any kind of grid just due to how the software works so I've just mentioned them.

Not gonna do honourable mentions etc. for OSTs because fUck that
I'd do movie/movie franchise OSTs too but I honestly don't remember enough movie OSTs well enough to reasonably make a full 3x3, in part because film/TV OSTs isn't really something I've started picking up on/listening to independently until around maybe 2 years ago(?) and, evidently, I've watched a lot more anime over the past two years than I have watched movies; off of the top of my head I can only think of Harry Potter, Star Wars, Shrek 2, The Blues Brothers and maybe one or two others for OSTs that really stuck out to me, granted that may be because it's 5:25 A.M. but WHATEVER. I might do that at some point but for now I'm just gonna leave it there.
