Beneath the Mask - I don't like either of these songs very much. JUSS is great in context, but on its own? Bleh. BtM also works better in context for creating a neat melancholy atmosphere, but still isn't the best.
Terra - Oh, Terra. Why do you keep getting into contests and doing so poorly? I wish one or the other would stop. At least it got a winnable fourpack, lol. I like the beginning of BAATH quite a bit, but it's not as strong after that. Not really one of the top tier Undertale Songs. A Continental Gale - Thought the song was Type Zero at first, which is much better. Maybe the nominator accidentally nominated Zero instead of Type Zero? An easy enough mistake to make. Anyway, Zero manages to be the worst song today. A Continental Gale has all these separate parts that feel like they're taken from different soundtracks (that one part is straight outta Eva), but those parts are good at least. --- All the stars in the sky are waiting for you. ...

Jump Up, Super Star
Battle Against a True Hero Zero Man, Jump Up Super Star really gets my blood pumping! It helps that I love that sort-of big band style. The references inside the song give it a nice flourish to those of us who have followed Mario throughout the years. Meanwhile, Beneath the Mask is good but still one of the weaker tracks from P5. It's great as BGM, but that's really its only purpose. If the purpose was to make a "chill" song from P5, When Mother Was There is probably a better choice. Battle Against a True Hero was one of the songs I was the first nom for, and there's a good reason. It feels as epic as the battle it plays in without trying too hard. I love the build from the solo piano into the frantic pace of the bassline in the heat of combat while the melody retains that legato smoothness. Then, toward the end of the loop, man the ZUNpets hit home for a Touhou fan like me. It's just great. Terra's plenty good too! Nothing wrong with it at all, and it's a respectable contender. It just doesn't blow me away like True Hero. For side bracket, A Continental Gale is discount Guilty Gear... but I do like GG a lot. Still, the vocal in Zero is just soothing to the ears, though I have no idea wtf is happening in the first five seconds. --- E come vivo? Vivo! ... Copied to Clipboard!

Battle Against A True Hero A Continental Gale First match is kinda close, but I love JUSS way too much not to pick it over Beneath The Mask's chill vibes. The other matches are...not that close. At all. I don't remember a thing about Zero thirty seconds after being done with it, and Terra is kinda there too. Easy matches today aside from the first one. --- Shine on, you crazy diamond. ...

Beneath the Mask
Terra Zero Man I totally forgot about Zero. Really great song. Strongest of the day probably, though Terra gives it a run for it's money. The world needs more cheesy male singer+acoustic guitar ballads like this. In other news, first match is pretty solid. Neither is truly a standout but I like both well enough. Ended up going with Beneath the Mask because the mood it sets in game is really good. Battle Against a True Hero is ok but one of the weaker Undertale tracks. I just think that style of music is boring idk. In the side bracket I already mentioned Zero, but A Continental Gale is low-key pretty good also and I wish it got enough votes to be in the main contest. Side bracket definitely the strongest match today for me, though I think all the songs are at least solid. Zero > Terra > A Continental Gale > Beneath the Mask > Jump Up Super Star > Battle Against a True Hero --- Congratulations to BK_Sheikah00, this year's guru to achieve contest enlightenment! ...

Also as for the poll I honestly just like listening to music. That's the main reason I'm involved in this, the contest itself is almost secondary for me. I guess I'll go with the early matches though since my favorites are still in at that point, and it's not like nominations when you have the stress of having to listen to EVERYTHING.

Oh I just realized I searched for a Youtube link for the side bracket and found the wrong version of the song (which may be evident in my comments).
I will clarify that I listened to the actual song now and my vote remains unchanged. This song is a bit worse but not by much. My bad. --- Congratulations to BK_Sheikah00, this year's guru to achieve contest enlightenment! ... Copied to Clipboard!

Jump Up, Super Star - Not a big fan of either song. Beneath the Mask doesn't do much to stand out from similar previous Persona songs, and overall is a lot duller than them anyway. Jump Up, Super Star is at least unique, and I do admit it's pretty fun even if I don't necessarily like it, so I gotta give the point to it.
Battle Against a True Hero - One of the only Undertale songs I believe deserves all of the praise it gets. Terra is an absolutely amazing song as well, but I'm a sucker for high-energy songs as opposed to softer ones, and Terra unfortunately just reminds me of other songs that do its job better.... even in the same game (thanks, Searching for Friends...) Zero - HOT. DAMN. THIS SONG. I'm normally not that crazy for Bump of Chicken, but this got to me the first time I played Type-0. I'm an especially big fan of the reprise of the Final Fantasy main theme that happens in the in-game version that didn't make it to any soundtrack... which is different from the version linked (actually I don't know if any links exist... not sure) but that's alright. A Continental Gale is a pretty good song as well despite being something I normally wouldn't be a fan of. That part at 0:48 is especially hot, and after that it stays pretty hot but it can't edge out Zero. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Match 1. Beneath the Mask.
I'm not really digging Jump Up Super Star. It's not bad, but Beneath the Mask is so chill and relaxed. It's so good. Match 2. Battle Against a True Hero. Terra just isn't doing it for me. Battle Against a True Hero though? Song is hype and really gets you going. Side Bracket. A Continental Gale. Neither song here was really doing much for me, but A Continental Gale is better sounding, got a kind of cool sound about it. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Battle Against a True Hero Zero JUSS really gets you pumped up, and has kind of an air of nostalgia. Beneath the Mask, though, is pretty plain, tbh. Terra is that classic song I like to play in flute, but doesn't have much else to offer. BAATH is quite the song, though. The third match is so close that it's pretty hard for me to call it, but I'd go with Zero (listening to the voice of a young man that sounds like it's in his teens is kind of soothing...). I'm not a fan of the orchestra in ACG, though.
