Comments:
Isquen: Can we take a moment to talk about the tempura blanket around 2:00? Would buy. Right, anyway. Another thing where I'm not the target audience, being Americocentralized as I am, and I really shouldn'tve looked at the video for the music because MAN, the 90s sucked for everyone, huh? Wouldn't be out of place with any other English blockbuster ballad, so it works, I guess.
FL81: Yep, definitely a '90s soft rock ballad. You sure this isn't the theme to a TV show?
maple_violet: this sounds like something that would play at the end of a bad movie to attempt to convince me I had enjoyed my time, unfortunately it would probably work
WW: 6.5/10
Fluttershy: First Listen: ...Exactly the type of jpop song that is cheating to nominate for me. Even the auto-translated lyrics are right up my alley. "With eyes like a lost child with no destination, I gaze into the dawn sky". This is the next to last song I'm listening to for my part of the rankings & I'm shocked something this fantastic was hiding all the way at the end. [Second Listen: A genre I love, with lyrics that I love, by a very talented singer. Very easy path to an incredibly high score. ...Shame that like so many other songs I love, it had the misfortune of crashing into one of the few other songs I loved more. Know that this song has the full five points in my heart, if not on the spreadsheet.] (95/100)
Gavs: There might have been a mistake. It looks like the opening credits of an 80s Japanese soap opera seems to have snuck onto the list? Alright song though. I GOTTA FIND MY WAY
rwlh: [4] not generally a fan of songs like this but the video seems to imply the song isn't as serious as it appears to be
dowolf: City: the Crosswalk of Destiny / The Song of Dawn. It could just be "intersection" but my brain went to "crosswalk" first and translating it that way makes me smile. A very 90's anime ending theme. I am so confused by the video. Oh this is literally what the game is lol. I don't have much else to say! It is emphatically what it is. It's in a tough group, unfortunately.
"Chaeix: japanese japanese japanese japanese I GOTTA FIND MY WAY more japanese more japanese YES IT'S JUST LIKE LOVE more japanese

You get the idea. the guitar solo towards the end is far and above the best part of this song. I'm glad that the song feels like it has some sense of growth throughout, if it felt any more same-y it would be much less enjoyable."
