＞"I like how all the anime music i listened to so far are very catchy, or soft and peaceful ".

　This sentence is a little difficult to understand, for it has an expression unfamiliar to Japanese learners, which should not be thought to be a mistake.

　'How' in this sentence means 'that', which functions as a conjunction. This usage of 'how' may seem strange to foreign learners of English, but it usually used in oral English, especially in informal style.

　It will be easier to understand if it is changed into a sentence like this; "I like that all the anime songs I listened to are very catchy, or soft and beautiful."

　Also note that the subject of 'are very catchy, ...' should be plural. So 'all the anime music" should be "all the anime songs."

　Hope this helps.

＞"I like how all the anime music i listened to so far are very catchy, or soft and peaceful ".

　I'm sory to say that I forgot to write an important thing. It is that 'how' also has the meaning of "the fact that" in some cases.

　If you see a sentence where 'how" is used just after "like", it would be better to understand the sentence as being equivalent to the sentence, "I like the fact that all the anime songs I listened to so far are very catchy, or soft and peaceful ".

　'How' used like this has a stronger meaning than 'that', in that it shows you the speaker's deep interest in what he or she is talking about.

　Thank you.

"I like how all the anime music i listened to so far are very catchy, or soft and peaceful ".

It is probably a mistake for "I would like to know how..."

>I like how all the anime music i listened to so far are very catchy, or soft and peaceful
この英文が文法的に正しいかどうか解りませんが、意味としては
「これまで聞いたアニメの音楽はみんなとても覚えやすいし、落ち着いて心が安らぐ点が好きです。」

＊how = that(接続詞)：used to mention a fact or event

以上、参考まで。
