Game: Blue Reflection
1: Qualia

perfect list don't even need to see the rest 10/10 i am declaring this the champion of bost5 by acclamation.

That said, given my incessant attempts over the last year-ish to get the board on... board... with Qualia have been met with deafening silence I am not totally sure it's the optimal choice. I am 200% in support of it though so you have my axe.

A lot of my advice probably hinges on how much you want to keep that kind of format division, because if you do, a lot of that feels locked in. I mean, battle songs would be, and TIGAR/Sayonara would be tough to argue against. I'd be up for the debate on it though.

Event/Area would be the the place the wildcard and that's all probably the area most people whose exposure to the OST has primarily been VGMC would be at a heavy disadvantage. Albiero Lake made a VGMC a few years back but I think that was it.

I honestly don't think you could go wrong with any of the battle/boss themes, and very arguably the "optimal" list is literally both normal battle themes + all 5 boss themes. That said, as someone who really likes the OST all-around I'll put that to the side for now.

Starting with the boss themes... if you had to go for 2, I think I'd go TIGAR and then roll the dice on Toshitake/Shinbu (which is the right translation help me dowolf.) Sayonara and DNF are definitely the safer picks there because they're both proven, but I think it could do quite well for itself. binGe is definitely the risky one lol where if you wanted to leave one out out of fear it could go sideways it'd be the one.

Qualia is 100% my top draft pick for area/event, but my next selection would probably be If I Were You. It's just so calming. Unfortunately that might not be the best in a contest setting. You're not the heroine, it's me is probably the safest pick in this category... I think. Talking Until Sunset Under that Same Fateful Sky reminds me of some calmer VN songs that have done all right for themselves in past VGMCs as another idea.
