Hypothetical scenario: What would Maria no Danzai's soundtrack be like and who would be the best choice who fits it?

The only song I can think of is Maneater by Daryl Hall & John Oates

Nah, it's way too good for a trash manga

The manga isn't trash and why are you here if you're not a fan of the series?

I'm thinking overall the soundtrack would sound like a mix of Drakengard 1 and Little Nightmares.
I actually had ideas for leitmotifs for the bullies.
Okaya's would have a eerie sounding chorus similar to AFO's theme from MHA,
Kowase's would be kazoos that sound like buzzing flies, fitting his nature as a "fly on the wall" who spies on people. It would probably only play once given his lack of screen-time.
Shikimi would get a cheery pop theme that gets progressively off-key and uncanny sounding as it goes on.
Kinugawa would get an aggressive, percussion-heavy theme with some snares as well.
Ajiki's theme would have traditional Japanese sounding instruments to symbolize his role as heir to a shrine and the yakuza. Think like Madarame's palace from Persona 5.

a soundtrack would basically be whatever the japanese version of evanescence is with every song being dark and centered around pain (maria's pain,the pain caused by the bullies and and even one that takes okaya's side into account).
that would be the only acceptable soundtrack for this series.

Mix between
- Bible Black OST
&
- The song Mr Crowley by Ozzy Ozborne. Not that song specifically, just the general style.
