Yeah, forgot to mention those clear cases. I mean, if there's gonna be some for example My Little Pony game, with soundtrack, that wouldn't allow people to add soundtracks for the animation (if there is even something like that).

Sawano and other people could take the Hisaishi card one day.

Numbers-game is bit iffy for me, we should also check composers production for the last two or four years, if he/she has started doing more and more anime/game stuff, and perhaps some major stuff, then I think his/her original etc. works should be allowed.
