I don't understand well why this album has been rejected.

What is a "solid" anime composer for you Illidan? You mean a composer who released a big quantity of albums?
This website lists all the works of Ichirou Nitta in anime and image albums:
http://www.spectrum-fan.net/discogra...iran.anime.htm

It's not a short discography.
So we need to add several albums of Nitta in VGMdb yet.

If you add the Maskman soundtracks by Goro Ohmi, i think you can add this tokusatsu soundtrack of Ichirou Nitta. Except his numerous image albums for Guin Saga, Goro Ohmi has done less work in anime than Ichirou Nitta.

And Secret Squirrel said today in the thread of Bioman:

Of course, notability is rather subjective, and we don't have any formulas for how many game/anime albums it takes to earn each out-of-scope allbum, so it will always come down to best judgement.
Personally, I think that Ichirou Nitta is a master composer, one of the best composers of the 80's, and his discography in anime/manga is enough to add his original works.
Plus Cybercop is just one of the best tokusatsu soundtracks i have heard in my life. Yes, a masterpiece.
