The 13th Anthology

The 13th Anthology is one of four Kingdom Hearts tracks in the album Drammatica, a compilation of Yoko Shimomura's musical pieces from her works in various Square Enix games, including Kingdom Hearts. The other three are Twinkle Twinkle Holidays, Destati, and The Other Promise.


Included themes

Essentially it is a compiled orchestration of the major pieces that represent Organization XIII throughout the series. These pieces have something in common because they all share at least a piece of the melody of Another Side and thus are included. The score includes noticeable elements from:

  • Another Side; used in the Kingdom Hearts Final Mix secret movie Deep Dive, which introduces Organization XIII. The first piece then reprises as the last piece at 6:10.
    • Organization XIII; theme music of the Organization in Kingdom Hearts II. Based on the first portion of Another Side
  • The 13th Struggle; The boss theme of all Organization members in Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories, except for Marluxia, repeated for Organization XIII members Sora and Roxas fights alone (Axel, Luxord). Plays at 1:01.
  • The 13th Reflection; boss theme of the five Absent Silhouettes in Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix+. Plays at 2:10.
  • Graceful Assassin; the boss theme of Marluxia's first form in Chain of Memories and Re:Chain of Memories. Highly based off and similar to, but not to be confused with, Another Side. Plays at 2:51.
  • The 13th Dilemma; boss theme to fights with Organization 13 when Sora is with his friends, (Demyx at Hollow Bastion, Xaldin, Xigbar, and Saïx). Based on the faster portion of Another Side. Plays at 3:15 following the pause after Graceful Assassin.
  • Lord of the Castle; boss theme of Marluxia's third and final form, exclusive to Re:Chain of Memories. Plays at 4:06.
