Most Epic Anime Music Ever

I was wondering, what is the most epic Anime background music you have ever heard? I'm not talking openings or closings, I mean music that plays while the action is taking place. Personally, I have 3 favorites. The Super Saiyan 3 Ascension Theme from the American dub of DBZ, Struggle Of Sadness from Yu Yu Hakusho and Number One from Bleach.......Shonen always have the most epic music imo:p
 
So we're talking epic action background music rather than any background music?

Evangelion and Gunbuster's action themes have always been my favourites. I'll try and hunt down titles, but it may take a while.
 
this one's my favorite of all time (ignore the air video, it's from mai-hime)

Kajiura Yuki's music is just so amazing i love it

Seriously, Naruto would be no-where without its music! Also:

Torukia from GITS:2nd GIG

maybe not the most epic tune, but certainly one of them.
 
Probably most of the music from Cowboy Bebop will be the general consensus.

Personally i thought Tenchi Muyo had an epic soundtrack. Macross plus was also good, but again that was Kano's handywork.

Bascially, the music that sends shivers down your spine whenever you hear it come on...but...whatever:p

If this isn't epic I don't know what is. Also, anime related, at least.
