The main thing that holds this back for me is the singer. I am so incredibly fickle when it comes to singers, and they can kinda arbitrarily make me like a song way more or less. I'd say in this case, it's less. I think it's because she doesn't harmonise well with the backing track most of the time, almost as if the instruments and singing are at odds with each other. Or maybe she's just not that great of a singer - I'm not really the best judge of that. I'm also not keen on them going ham on the triangle (?) at 1:24-1:27 and 1:30-1:34, or the tone deaf bells in the following (and other) sections of the song. The mastering of the song leaves something to be desired too. At least it has that whole dramatic and gothic style going on again, like I mentioned in the last song, which reminds me of Castlevania. I mean, it should, since I think this is a Touhou-Castlevania fangame. The song is also kinda catchy, in a way? Even though I don't like it that much, I can still remember roughly how it goes, among the most of all the songs that were new to me in this project. That's worth something.

Expect to see a couple more vocal songs dropping soon.
