I really like how are two titles displayed on cover:
Tytania Original Soundtrack 2 and also Original Score For Tytania...there´s no chance to tell which title is superior.
I just go with name which I found at amazon and cdjapan, but this could be changed to Tytania Original Soundtrack 2 and back

Or just use both.

I don't think that would make much sense. Presumably you don't consider Hiroshi Takaki's name part of the title, but more as descriptive information? I think that's what Original Score For Tytania is meant to be too. I bet if we had a scan the spine would say just TYTANIA ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK 2, although if it doesn't I'd support changing it.

Here we have 'Original Score' added (edit history here) even though "Original Score by Gustavo Santaolalla" seems as a descriptive part to me... I would leave only 'The Last of Us' as the album title but don't really have a reason to argue if Myrkul thought that adding 'original score' was fine. (and maybe I've done similar for some other album, I can't remember everything lol)

About this album, imho it's more debatable if ORIGINAL SCORE FOR TYTANIA is a descriptive part or not comparing to the Last of Us example.

I would agree there, The Last of Us should be the title (actually in all caps because of the retention of stylization), or perhaps the whole thing together. Or, again, whatever's written on the spine.

I have no scan of the obi, but I added a scan of the back cover and CD scan.
I think that's enough to determine which title is superior.

Well that was a surprise! Alright, if that's what it says.

And now all we're missing is that nice little track breakdown that's visible on the back cover... for anyone willing to add it.

Porter, you should gather more info before you make a submission - not necessarily talking about the scans or looking directly into the booklet if you own the album, just search the web a bit more to see if the sites hold more info you could use, like:
http://anison.info/data/source/31087.html
or joshin here even has Kanagawa Philharmonic Orchestra listed:
http://joshinweb.jp/dp/4988001157106.html

so investigate, combine, verify and submit, that's preferable than leaving it for someone else to do it. Just a suggestion.
