Ouch, Nilin gets a final chance at redemption and it's against EXEC_Z of all things! KCF did get his retiree this year, so I guess I won't feel bad for betraying Nilin one last time.

Holy shit I get to talk about lastendconductor! Why am I so nervous! I had the pleasure of listening through the Umineko soundtrack two months ago (actually it was rwlh's shortened playlist of 45 songs thank you rwlh) and it was nothing short of an eye-opening experience. I really don't know much about the story of Umineko, but the comments and description under each video really gave me a sense of the intrigue and epic confrontations that slowly unfold. It would always seem like my favourite tracks were big showdowns with the villains done by zts! Then, the way lastendconductor comes in to top them all off with its callbacks to earlier songs just blew me away. I always imagine an epic JRPG-style final boss where you're flying through space with planets and stars swirling all around you, signalling the end of the universe as you desperately fight for your last hope to save everything from collapsing on itself...come to think of it, I don't know if I want to break that connection by experiencing the game's true nature of clicking through a bunch of text boxes! I'm happy enough leaving everything up to my imagination based on the visions that the music conjures up for me. The only thing is that the song can break its sense of finality by sounding too happy at times, but there's so much to digest in terms of highs and lows that I'm still debating whether it should place way above or way below a song like goldenslaughterer. In a lot of ways, it feels like an epic final battle that also prepares you to say goodbye to the fictional world you've found yourself immersed in for so long, which is an aesthetic that really resonates with me. the executioner coming in at 3:33 gives me chills every single time and is probably my favourite moment from the entire soundtrack!
