This is honestly one of my least favourite songs from the original Sonic trilogy. But it's still a Sonic song, so even its worst is at least decent. The song tries to have this really hip groove, and while it does succeed, some of the choices of sound don't sit well with me. It's a bit abrasive to listen to. 0:43 onwards is my favourite part, since they chill on some of those abrasive elements and focus entirely on the groove and a decent melody part for a bit. Too bad it's the shortest part.

#245: Maji de Watashi ni Koi Shinasai! A4 - The 108 Stars of Destiny

I often confuse this with the other song from the same game that dropped a few ranks earlier. They're pretty comparable though. This song is just as much of a mixed bag, with certain things I really like and certain things I really like. The good part is definitely 49:36-50:03, which is (not so) coincidentally the rock section. The parts I don't like is most of the other stuff, which is trying way too hard to sound epic or intense and just sounds chaotic or disorganized instead. I like the song's overall tone, and the best part is good enough that it elevates it above the other one, but there is still a very clear gap in my mind between these two songs and the other three from the same game series that I'll talk about later.
