+2 Can You Feel the Sunshine?

Would probably put Back in Time in the upper half of winners (6th-8th range), which considering how great a lot of them are is commendable. CYFTS just would have been 3rd or 4th (fittingly right next to Ys 8 Sunshine Coastline).

Good contest! Pleasant rebound after the last one in almost every respect.

Fuck

Despicable

My inclination is 1 or 4, but they were all a lot of fun.

Back in Time

Not sure how we got -two- songs that make me wish Can You Feel the Sunshine was here, but so it goes. Still a very respectable final.

ED1 - Namae no nai Kaibutsu - EGOIST - Psycho-Pass
OP1 - Kuusou Mesorogiwi - Yousei Teikoku - Mirai Nikki
OP1 - Anti world - Kanako Takatsuki - I'm Standing on a Million Lives
OP1 - Shingeki no Kyojin - Linked Horizon - Attack on Titan
OP5 - RAIN - SID - Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood

...yeah, Epicentre's utter collapse in the finals really messed this up, though there were enough close matches in its division (and enough blowouts elsewhere) that some of those still look okay. The same can't be said for Sunleth's, though, as its retirement was never contested - much like Frost Street, it's the only song from its division in the top half.

congrats to Ring Ring Ring for once more having an absurd X-stats value despite losing in R3. maybe that will mean something one of these years

Sephitoth (for Kuja)

hello this is a few days late because (a) life and (b) Trails but I have started compiling X-Stats for this contest! for new folks this is essentially a means to rank the songs based on "true" popularity regardless of how far they made it in the bracket, using the percentages each song got in their matches. (For example, Moonlight Concert beat Northeast Frost Street by far more than Origin, so the latter might be taken to be "stronger" even though it lost in round 1.) That said, it is not a perfect (or honestly even a necessarily good) means of prediction as strength is frequently intransitive, especially with a small voter base - mostly I am compiling these for fun because I think numbers are neat

Here's Bracket A! (The other three are still in progress.) The listed percentages are "what would this song be expected to get on Ragna Breakers if they faced":

64 Vs. Gullveig 14.19%

Some notes:

-Ragna Breakers won its last four matches by 4 votes, 2 votes, 2 votes, and TB + 4 votes (which ends up functionally the same as 2 votes). In the grand scheme of things, those are all very close, and so those four of its opponents end up as very nearly the rest of the top 5. (This is probably an example of what I meant by popularity being intransitive - usually an indicator of a more polarizing song.)
-On a related note, yes, that is an exact tie for second - both Lost Forest and SHININ' QUEEN lost 28-30 to Ragna.
-As I suggested in my preamble, Origin losing by 2 votes to Moonlight Concert makes it look very good despite a round 1 loss. J-E-N-O-V-A, Kimigatame and KDL3 Credits are other round 1 losers that snuck into the top quarter.
-On the other hand, oof Northeast Frost Street. 22-36 is a pretty sizeable loss, and its entire division is stuck behind that, making them all look pretty bad (with NFS being the only one in the top half).

Ultimate Loser (aka the song farthest removed from the winner in terms of what it lost to):
Ragna Breakers > Moonlight Concert > Northeast Frost Street > Purple Town > Samsara > Techno Syndrome > MOONMAN's Fandango

Ragna Breakers

extremely "groovy" semifinals, I respect it
