ONGEKI bright MEMORY - FestA of PandemoniuM
[-Aka-] - Suna Gin
7th Dragon 2020-II - Shutoko - Spiral Maze

MATCH 1

Waltz of Meditation Part 2 is really nice for the first 30 seconds. Definitely my favorite part of the song. It has this emotion to it that almost feels like longing. I like 0:48 too. Reminds me of 70's/80's prog rock bands. Rush in particular comes to mind. The rest of the song doesn't feel all that special to me, but I still like it.

Festa of Pandemonium brings a little too much pandemonium at times with the frantic and chaotic notes, but I like it the most when it's just steady, solid guitar soloing, which feels like most of the song, at least when I take the song in as a whole.

MATCH 2

I like how Suna Gin reminds me of older Japanese pop songs. This song's really good as a whole, but I especially like the chorus. The dual vocals are great, at times acting as a call and response, at other times harmonization, and even as a duet. And the violin acts a nice glue to all of this.

Kanashimi no Mephisto is also really cool. Though, I feel like Suna Gin sounds more special to me. Mephisto feels more like something that sounds better on paper than when listened to for me.

MATCH 3

Shutoko has a really cool dramatic introduction with the piano, and it only ramps up from there, culminating in a great climax to the song. I only wish the climactic part lasted a little bit longer, but definitely a cool song.

Inherit the Stars also has a nice dramatic flair to it, but stylistically, it's less my thing compared to Shutoko.
