Typical fighting music is exactly what you'd want as a soundtrack to two people kicking the crap out of each other, but sometimes composers throw in a random laidback track. This episode is all about these: the inexplicably peaceful or cheerful or otherwise not-super-face-poundy songs that are nonetheless in fighting games, featuring tracks from Street Fighter, King of Fighters, Samurai Shodown, Tekken and more.
