Celeste - Confronting Myself
Skygunner - To the Distant Sky
GITADORA OverDrive - Douwa Kairou

MATCH 1

Man, I wish the rest of Confronting Myself was as cool as its intro. There's something about that intro that's really good to me. Similar to the intro to Second Dark Matter Battle (note to self: please stop accidentally typing it as "Second Dark Mind Battle"), to draw a comparison. The melody during the rest of the song, though, feels so much more dull to me. Like it doesn't have the same excitement as the intro. Speaking of which, I also don't really like it when it's all chopped up later on in the song for the same reason. It takes a little bit away from what I like about the intro. That said, it's a fine song, I just definitely don't like it as much as many others here do.

Thermal Base 1 is much better than I remember it being! Kinda reminds me of Undertale - CORE. Makes this match closer than I expected it to be. There's still some things that I'm not too big on, like the orchestra hits. 0:41-0:55 isn't great either. Confronting Myself's a little bit better, but I wouldn't mind Thermal Base 1 winning here.

MATCH 2

Wow did I underrate To the Distant Sky when I was going through nominations! I remember liking it when I listened to it the first time, but didn't consider supporting it until I remembered it one day and thought "oh I remember this being good, lemme listen to it again" and then realizing that it's a really good song. The vocalist has such a nice, soothing voice and the whole song in general is really calming. Parts like 0:10-0:28 and the melody in the vocals are really great too. Soft anime-sounding song good. Desire Blue Sky losing is definitely sad, but that pushes To the Distant Sky to my #2 favorite song in B2 (Endeavor is #1 now), so I'm somewhat hoping to see this retire. If Endeavor loses too, then I'm definitely pushing as much as I can for this song to retire. Glad I recognized that I love this song in time to support it to help get it into the contest!

[Will edit to finish this as soon as I post it, just getting my votes in now]
