Here is every battle theme from Budokai 1, in the order they appear in within the story mode (barring Running to Victory and Budo ~ Asian Spirit, as they don't appear in the story mode, but are themes for two of the three stages available when you start the game).

This came about out of curiousity as I wondered if there was any consistency with the battle themes used in the story mode and... Turns out, there is! I can't believe I never noticed the consistency. For example, Vegeta has his own battle theme, the Androids have their own theme, Nappa has his own battle theme, etc.. It's really cool.

Also, I mucked up the timing of the text on-screen in the first 15 minutes and with Encounter & Warrior From An Unknown Land, so it changes early instead of with the sprites in the background. That's my bad. I also used some Budokai Tenkaichi 3 portraits in some parts because there aren't even large enough assets for the character's transformations.
