Reach for the Moon
BWLAUTE
Sight of Silence

It's Reach for the Moon -- it's always been my favorite 2hu theme, and that's yet to change, 10+ games later. The percussion in the background sounding like the ticks of a clock after the intro sequence always gets me. Am I biased because Mokou is one of my favorite bosses of all time? Yeah, probably. It would've beaten all but the finest contenders, which Slope Cave is not. Don't care for the instrumentation, and while I wouldn't be irritated hearing it in game, I also wouldn't ever think to nominate it for this tournament.

More anime vocals, but I can get behind these! There's more soul to this song than its anime song predecessors, and I love this singer's timbre. The guitar and percussion drive it forward and accompany the song wonderfully. The song is formulaic, but you know what, there's nothing wrong with a good formula when it's executed well! Its challenger: Decent track with unfortunate soundfont. EZPZ.

Not a fan of Sight of Silence's intro, but once we get past that, this is a nice, groovy little track. I dig it! It doesn't wow me or anything, but it's pleasant and unique enough that I understand why it's here. Terminal March... oh man, Terminal March. I supported this during noms mostly to get another Supergiant track in (which VGMC really like to kick in the ribs for some reason), but this is among the weakest from its own game. It's not In Case of Trouble, Bynn the Breaker, Spike in a Rail, or even Mine Windbag Mine, let alone one of the excellent vocal tracks. It's with a heavy heart I vote against it, but my conscience is clear.
