Calling
Umineko no Naku Koro ni
SaKuRa

I really like Calling and I've never quite been able to put my finger on why. (This is true of a lot of TWEWY music tbh.) I guess it's just a great feel-good song even if nothing about it really stands out on close inspection. What on earth is Practice Makes Perfect? This is one of those songs where I'm just amazed that it exists. It's also pretty good though and I feel a bit bad voting against it.

Interwoven Stories is a fine peaceful atmospheric track. I like the drawn out synth(?) and clarinet notes towards the middle of the piece, but ultimately this doesn't stand out to me too much. Umineko is far from my favorite Akiko Shikata song...but it's still an Akiko Shikata song which is enough here. Really pretty and interesting vocals the same as every Akiko Shikata song. In general I like her style for sections like 2:00 a lot more than sections like 2:20, and this song is a lot more weighted towards the latter.

Sa ku ra is another one I really like. Instruments are a great mix of catchy beats and energetic oriental instruments. The vocals are kind of detached but also have this bright resounding quality to them that makes it sound really cool. Big fan. Revenge is also a pretty good high-energy battle track with some cool melodies and screeching guitar parts, but it's not in the same league for me at least. Would have voted it in match 2 for sure though.
